Faye’s state frightened the other women. Hayley was panicking. She hastily helped Faye to stand on her feet and said in a flurried tone, “Fifi, Fifi! What’s going on with you?! You’re scaring me!”Shaelyn was extremely flustered. She knew that Faye was constantly troubled recently, but nightmares seemed to be the worst of it. She had never experienced any genuine health issues. Yet now, Faye’s life was draining rapidly and she was on the verge of death!Shaelyn could not imagine what she would do if anything bad were to happen to Faye. How was she going to explain it to Zayn?Hayley shared the same thought. She was scared out of her wits, holding onto Faye tightly. She was constantly repeating herself, “Fifi, what’s going on with you? Are you sick? I’m taking you to the hospital now! You have to hold on! You must hold on!”Hayley’s eyes reddened immediately upon seeing Faye’s condition. She shed tears of sorrow because Faye was her daughter-in-law and she was very pleased with
“Silly child! That’s nonsense! What do you mean by doctors can’t help you?! I’m going to do everything I can to save you regardless!” said Hayley furiously. Lysithea then said, “Judging by her condition, it seems that Faye really isn’t sick. It looks more like there’s an unknown force draining her life away.”She looked at Faye and asked, “What happened, Fifi? Talk to us.”Faye refused to reveal the truth, insisting she was only tired and that she would be fine after getting some rest. Nevertheless, they were not fools and did not believe her. At that point, Lysithea noticed something and said to Shaelyn, “Shaelyn, you look like you know something. Talk to us.”Faye looked at Shaelyn, clearly intending to stop her from speaking. Shaelyn bit her lower lip before finally deciding to speak. “This is what happened. Sometime ago, Fifi began…”Shaelyn told Hayley and Lysithea about Faye’s nightmare and her true identity!Hayley and Lysithea were shocked by the revelation. They could
Lysithea was the coldest of the three. She immediately thought of something and asked, “Fifi, is your father so powerful that he has even surpassed that of an ordinary invincibilis powerhouse? Moreover, is he from the Big Four?”Hearing Lysithea’s queries, Faye’s body shook ferociously, her face going slightly paler. Indeed, her face no longer seemed pale but green. As for Shaelyn and Hayley, they were obviously stunned. Could Faye’s biological father be such a powerful man?The first thought that came into their minds was that it was impossible. How could Faye run off into the common world and be adopted by the Carterss if her biological father was so powerful? Moreover, after so many years had passed, Faye’s biological father should have located her given the capabilities of the Big Four. Instead, it seemed he never found her. Faye was over twenty years old and she was obviously no longer the child she used to be, so was there any way for her father to find her?After some con
Lysithea did not speak, but one could tell from her icy expression that she was on Hayley’s side as well. Under such circumstances, Faye felt even more anxious, almost to the point of tears. “Mom, Shaelyn, Lysithea, you should leave now. Go quickly. I’m not joking with you. My father is different from other fathers. He’s ruthless. He's…”All of them suddenly heard a light, airy voice coming from the corridor. “Sweet daughter of mine, how could you speak ill of your father after not meeting him for so many years?”The voice was unexpected. There was a door between them and the speaker, but it sounded like he was right inside the room. It was extremely ghastly.Lysithea felt goosebumps all over her body upon hearing him. Of all the women, she was the most skilled martial artist and she could instantly sense that Faye’s biological father was a terrifyingly skilled fighter!She could hear the man’s voice already but could not sense his presence at all. Moreover, it sounded like the
Upon hearing the sound of footsteps, the three people in the room could not help feeling nervous. It felt as if the footsteps were trodding on their chests one by one and placing an immense pressure on them. Even Hayley could not remain calm anymore. It was even more unbearable for Faye. Her body was shaking violently, and her pale face had turned a sickly green. She was obviously in agony!“Run! Run away, quick! Go, all of you…”Despite being scared out of her wits, Faye bit her tongue to force herself awake and remained calm enough to urge the others to run. However, how could they possibly run at that point?Hayley’s gaze showed determination as she grabbed Faye’s hand tightly and said, “Don’t worry, Fifi. I’m here and no one can take you away.”Shaelyn said, “That’s right, Fifi. Don’t worry. We’ll protect you.”Even though Lysithea did not speak, her expression had already shown her intentions. She would fight alongside Faye and not run away. Faye felt extremely touched
No, he was more akin to a god-like being. He was so powerful that he was considered one of the top fighters in the world, and not even Saint Caelum was a match for him!She was genuinely petrified. Noticing her reaction, Hayley asked softly, “Lysithea, are you acquainted with this man?”Lysithea’s expression turned extremely solemn. She forced a smile and said, “Not acquainted with but more like I’ve seen his portrait… I didn’t expect that he would be Faye’s biological father! It’s truly unbelievable!”Hayley was astonished by Lysithea’s response. She knew her very well and that Lysithea was a very calm person. Though she was not too distant, Lysithea was not easily shocked either, yet she had clearly been amazed by this revelation. Hence, Hayley asked, “Who is he, Lysithea?”Lysithea took a deep breath and shifted her eyes away from Osiris. She lowered her voice and said, “Aunt Hayley, this man is the president of Regicide Heofon. He’s the one who currently controls all of Regic
Shaelyn immediately shielded Faye with her body and glared at Osiris ferociously, shouting, “As long as I’m here, don’t even think about taking Fifi away!”Even though Shaelyn was terrified, she did not cower and remained shielding Faye courageously. Osiris shifted his gaze to Shaelyn, but he did not care about her presence at all. He said to Faye, “My child, you haven’t seen me in so many years, yet you’ve forgotten all about your manners. Come and greet your father.”His demeanor changed as soon as he spoke. He felt overbearing and it made Shaelyn feel as if a mountain had been placed upon her shoulders. Her body trembled and she looked like she was about to collapse at any moment. However, she still endured, gritting her teeth and bracing herself, reluctant to bow down. In truth, she was not the only one who felt it. Lysithea and Hayley were under immense pressure too and felt like submitting themselves to Osiris. Their fear and respect for Osiris drilled deep into their b
Faye gritted her teeth tightly. Even though she had already expected this to happen, she was furious and saddened to hear it from her father. She was heartbroken that her father had never loved her as a parent should!Before she could speak, Hayley stepped forward and said, “I’m Hayley King and I’m honored to meet you, President Osiris.”A look of surprise flashed past Osiris’ face when he heard Hayley’s remark and said, “Do I know you?”He had covered his tracks when he left for the common world. Other than Elder Thor, no one knew that he was in the common world and he had never seen the woman before her. Moreover, he kept his identity secret in the club’s world, so very few people had seen him in real life. Hayley said, “I’ve only heard of your great reputation for a long time, President Osiris.”Osiris focused his eyes on Hayley, but he did not pay her too much attention. He said nonchalantly, “If that’s all, move aside. This is a family matter.”He spoke in an ice-cold ton
