The sound of a man’s delighted voice from the other end of the phone call was heard. “Not yet, actually. I’m only going to be having an engagement banquet. You’re not doing too bad yourself, Nathan. Have you managed to get Faye within your grasp?”That was right. The person on the line was Nathan. He just so happened to be eating in that hotel as well, thus he ended up bumping into Zayn and Alexandra together.The first reaction he had was to call William and tell him the good news.Alexandra was also one of the three prettiest women in Waltz City. Although she was on par with Faye in terms of beauty, her reputation was nowhere as great as the latter’s, hence most ordinary people would not know who Alexandra was. However, within the social circle, Alexandra was very famous. Not only was she pretty, but she also had a solid background since she was the only daughter of the Smiths. In fact, she could even be said to be the woman most men desired to claim for themselves. In fact, Nat
“Who’s the other person?” William’s voice sounded extremely cold at that point.However, Nathan was not frightened by his voice in the slightest and was even laughing instead. ‘Wonderful, the more furious William is, the more danger Zayn will be in and the happier I feel.‘Although I’ve already looked for Mr. Hyde and know that it’s only a matter of time before Zayn’s life ends, how exciting will it be to be able to see Zayn being taught a proper lesson before his death?’“Zayn Larson,” said Nathan in a deep and meaningful manner.“Who?” William could not actually recognize that name.Instantly, Nathan continued and said, “Zayn Larson. He’s the man who married into the Carters. He’s also the man who offended you in your villa a while ago.”“Him?” William immediately recalled the man since his impression of Zayn was rather profound, and he immediately clenched his teeth. A rush of fury welled up within him. ‘I haven’t even touched Faye yet, but this *sshole is actually meddling wi
However, Zayn did not remain saddened for long and very soon returned to his smiling expression. He silently retracted his hand and said with a smile, “It’s not that bad actually. My life’s already happier than many others’. At least, I don’t have to fret about my daily necessities.”When Alexandra saw Zayn’s reaction, she felt even more empathy for him. Then, her maternal instinct kicked in as she had the sudden urge to give him a hug and console him properly.Actually, she was rather shocked as to why she would react as such. ‘I’ve only just met Zayn not too long ago. Why would I have such shameful thoughts? He’s a married man...’On the other hand, William had travelled with lightning speed to rush to the hotel the moment he hung up the phone. In fact, he even rushed through countless red lights.However, there was nothing that he could do since he was truly blinded by his own anger. All he could think in his mind at that moment was the scene of Alexandra being together with Zay
William’s face was dangerously dark as he paced across the room, even bumping into a waiter in the process.Soon, Zayn could feel his presence as he shot a look in William’s direction. Then, he teased Alexandra, “You’re fiance’s here.”“Ah?” Shocked, Alexandra immediately followed Zayn’s line of sight. Sure enough, she saw William angrily storming toward their direction and immediately frowned. “He’s not my fiance. I’ll never agree to marry him.”At that moment, William had already arrived within their vicinity. He was even more enraged when he saw that Zayn was actually still able to smile.However, Alexandra was still not his fiance at that moment and they had not even held their engagement banquet yet. Therefore, no matter how angry William was, he could not direct his anger at her. Instead, he could only force a wry smile as he said, “Alexandra, you’re here to dine as well. What a coincidence.”William had returned to his gentlemanly temperament, and no one would be able to re
“You’re crazy,” Alexandra then said, “I already knew long ago that Zayn’s married.”“What?” William was startled. “If you already knew, why are you…”When he said that, he suddenly stopped and realized that it was him who was being hasty. ‘I haven’t even made sure I know the entire situation and I’ve rushed here. What if Alexandra and Zayn really don’t have that kind of relationship and are just ordinary friends? If that’s true, then my actions will make me look completely petty.’However, William was lucky that he was quick-witted, so he immediately changed his tone and said with a smile, “Oh, is that so? That’s good then, that’s good.”Alexandra rolled her eyes and continued to say, “Anyway, Zayn’s already promised me that he will file for a divorce immediately, so I’ll wait for him.”Zayn immediately stopped drinking his tea and almost spat it out instead. ‘What the h*ll is Alexandra doing? How is she even able to say something like that out of the blue?’Furthermore, when Wil
Alexandra could tell that things were starting to go awry, so she intervened by shooting a glare at William. “Hey! I’m warning you, William—don’t try anything stupid with Zayn. I was the one who was looking for him, not the other way around, so it’s got nothing to do with him. If you’re p*ssed, then at least be pissed at the right person—me!”The corner of William’s lips twitched. How he wished he could just release all of his built-up wrath right then and there, but it was not worth the cost!Of course, there was also the fact that their wedding was in just a few days’ time—and it was a marriage blessed and approved by Victor, her father. It was not like Alexandra could call it off on her own. He just had to marry her and toy with her a little, before finally avenging himself.William took a deep breath to extinguish the flames within him before declaring solemnly, “Alexandra, I’ll prove that no matter how many men are out there waiting—I’ll always be your perfect match!”He turne
Zayn was cognizant of William’s people tailing him, but he simply could not care less. Be it William Brown or Nathan Sullivan, they were all small fries in an expansive ocean. The last thing Zayn wanted to do was to give lowlifes undue attention.He immediately engrossed himself in his new work as soon as he got back to Violet Vision. He had plans—and not just a floating, intangible concept—to establish an all-new advertising company. It was high time he started planning for it.The seven billion dollars his grandfather had bequeathed him was not just going to sit in the bank as fodders to interest rates; Zayn had more ambitious plans—and starting this late afternoon, he was going to draft its intricacies.When it was almost time to go home, he received a call from Adrian.The fact that he called made Zayn frown. Ever since he took over Violet Vision from Jordan, he had not contacted the Larsons since, nor did Jordan ever speak to him at all. Besides, Zayn hardly concerned himself
Every action Adrian took was out of respect for the wealthy young man. He oozed obeisance—from his slightly bent posture to the way every word required some form of mental appraisal before Adrian could confidently verbalize it, simply because he could not risk offending him.“Apologies, but Zayn hung up before he could give me a definite answer,” Adrian answered with a hint of reverence.The man smiled. “Oh? Is that so?”He removed the pair of shades that he had been wearing to reveal a face that looked all too similar to Zayn Larson himself. In fact, the resemblance was quite uncanny, though he was slightly more attractive than the latter.“He’ll come back; no doubt about it. I know him,” he continued, his lips quivering into a cryptic smile, before seemingly murmuring to himself, “Oh, brother of mine. Lady Luck has a bias for you, doesn’t she? You didn’t end up dead or missing after that incident from four years ago. In fact, you managed to escape and hide under the Carters’ roof
He had already found his next path and he was hopeful for his future. He was convinced that he could reproduce the miracle perfectly if he had enough time!He turned around abruptly and saw Zayn’s icy cold face. He could not refrain himself from saying aloud, “Zayn! I’m your father-in-law! You can’t kill me!”There was a change of Zayn’s icy cold face at last when he heard that. He furrowed his brows for a moment. However, just as Osiris was pleased about his remark, Zayn had already thrown a punch. It was a simple, unadorned, straightforward, concise punch that landed heavily on Osiris’ chest. A poof that sounded like poking through a layer of paper was heard when he punched through Osiris’ chest. On the other hand, Osiris’ body halted to a stop as well. He widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at his wound incredulously….“You… You…” He glared at Zayn, his gaze filled with recalcitrance, fear and regret. Zayn said nonchalantly, “You don’t deserve to be h
“You’re next.”Bang!Upon saying that, he exerted strength in his limbs and flew toward Osiris. Yes, he flew over. His body rose into the air and he was capable of standing steadily in the air without any support. He looked just like a superhero from the movies!Most importantly, he was extremely swift in speed and had already surpassed the speed limit achievable by mankind. Osiris felt an immense sense of danger that he had never felt before at this exact moment. It sent a shiver down his spine instantly and he was actually scared out of his wits that his body turned icy cold. He had a feeling that he was no match for Zayn and that he would die immediately if he stayed!Zayn who advanced beyond invincibilis state was way too powerful that he could not make sense anymore and he was no match for Zayn. He made the quickest and most precise decision that was to run. He would spare no effort in running away from Zayn!While there was life, there was hope. Zayn’s success prov
Hence, they did not have the courage to rescue Zayn even after noticing that he was in imminent danger. They could only watch helplessly and do nothing. “Look! That’s Sergeant Larson! Oh god, what transpired in the past few days? Why is Sergeant Larson being surrounded by so many powerhouses from the clubs? He can’t possibly escape from danger under such circumstances no matter how powerful he is!”“Oh no, oh no, Sergeant Larson is going to die here…”“What should we do? Could it be that we’re not going to do anything to save him?”“I don’t know. Let’s ask for instructions from our superior…”The numerous combat aircraft in the sky began to send out signals and asked for instruction from their superior. Soon, they received the reply and they were instructed not to act rashly or approach easily. It was because they would be doomed if they were to get closer and enter the attack zone of the invincibilis powerhouses. Hence, they could only watch from afar and await reinforcement
Upon saying that, Zayn placed Faye on the ground in an extremely gentle and cautious manner. Faye’s body had already become stiff, but her body had actually begun to turn soft after being caressed by Zayn’s palm. She lay flat on the ground with an expression that looked like she was asleep. After Zayn was done, he turned around and looked toward Osiris, his expression icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “It’s your fault that Fifi is dead. You deserve to die.”Next, his gaze swept across everyone and said something that terrified everyone, “All of you deserve to die!”Upon hearing that, Osiris’ expression turned somber and filled with murderous intent abruptly. He had already realized by now that his hard work and effort of a lifetime was wasted on Zayn!At the moment he found Faye in her aging state completely drained of life and power, he realized that his plan had failed!The result of his hard work for a lifetime was seized by the bastard before him!In an instant, his rage
“Zayn’s willpower is so strong that he is capable of withstanding the pain of his body’s restructuring indifferently. He’s an excellent talent.” The person speaking was the armored man and he was looking at Zayn through the cloud without attempting to conceal his admiration. He had encountered plenty of geniuses and countless geniuses more gifted in martial arts than Zayn. However, Zayn was the only ine whose willpower was so strong that he could endure the pain of body restructuring. Even he himself failed to withstand the pain of body restructuring and had rolled on the ground frantically. The woman nodded to herself as she looked at Zayn without attempting to conceal her admiration and approval. “This Earther is quite impressive. He has already taken the step successfully. My trip to Earth was not wasted this time…huh?”However, it was at this exact moment when Zayn on the ground raised his head and looked in their direction with his sharp gaze as if he could sense them.
Zayn wanted to reject her instinctively, but when he saw the final hopefulness in Faye’s eyes, he could not bring himself to reject her anymore. He knew that it was Faye’s final moment.The glint in Faye’s eyes was vanishing gradually. He opened his mouth and of all the words he wanted to say to her in her last moment, he said, “Yes!”Upon hearing the word, Faye’s aged face cracked a smile. Then, the joyous smile was frozen on her face for eternity…Zayn’s body stiffened as well. He had already forgotten how he landed on the ground, but he remained in the same position with Faye in his arms for a very long time. He hugged Faye until her residual body temperature dispersed and her body began to become stiff. Zayn was heartbroken. He felt a feeling of dejection and hollowness that he had never experienced before and it washed over his entire body like a flood. He lost track of time until he felt the rain pouring from the sky. Even the sky could feel his sorrow and began to w
Zayn had never felt so agonized in his life!It was because he knew that Faye was already at the end of her life, not even God could save her now!He had no idea why his heart would ache so badly and why he hated himself so much. It was well within his expectation that both Faye and him would not survive the fall. Now, he was in so much agony just because Faye was one step ahead of him in death. Was he in agony because Faye sacrificed her life for his survival, or was it because he would not see Faye again for the rest of his life?Zayn’s mind could not function normally anymore because he was in so much pain and tormented now. His body was still dropping constantly and at an increasing speed. They were dropping so fast that Faye could not withstand the process and was suffocating. After seeing Faye’s condition, Zayn did not even think. He began to stop his body from falling at full speed instinctively as he was born to do it until he became completely suspended in the air!I
Upon saying that, Faye kissed Zayn’s lips. It was a kiss so deep and unhindered. Zayn hugged Faye tightly as well. In the beginning, he was under the assumption that it was a very normal kiss. It was their final sentimentality before death. However, Zayn discovered that something was off soon!It was because he could clearly feel a gush of immense power passing from Faye’s mouth constantly. The intensity of the power had even surpassed that of the fruits he consumed in Shangri-la. The unexpected change caught him off guard and he was dumbfounded instantly. He did not manage to respond to the situation. What the heck was going on?He widened his eyes and stared at Faye before him. However, he soon saw something that sent a shiver down his spine. Faye’s hair turned from black to white swiftly at a visible speed!Moreover, Faye’s fair, tender skin aged constantly as if life was drained from her instantly. Her skin turned wrinkly and dry like a tree bark. The situation did
“Listen to my order, all members!”Meanwhile, Osiris spoke, his expression filled with ferocity . “Locate both of their bodies from the cliff at the fastest speed!”Upon saying that, he vanished from where he stood. Meanwhile, two people stood at a mysterious location that no one could see above Regicide Heofon’s ground. These two people were a man and a woman. The man was clad in armor and assumed the posture of an army general, filled with dominance. He exuded a powerful presence that had already surpassed the level of all powerhouses on earth. Even Osiris and Zayn were nothing in this man’s presence. On the other hand, the woman stood in front of the man. Her beauty was impeccable and she was as graceful as a fairy…The woman had her head lowered to look at the cliff ahead of her and cracked a peculiar smile. Speaking of which, it was not the first time these two people showed up on earth. They were the ones who brought up the live broadcast of Zayn and King Erik in Sha
