“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
Thomas Carter was in his dorm room. He was absolutely devastated—heartbreak could do that to a man, after all.Despite two semesters’ worth of grueling effort, a stupid trust-fund kid stole his dream girl away from him. He had subsequently rubbed it in Thomas’ face, to the latter’s growing rage!If these were the extent of his troubles, Thomas would still find it mildly tolerable. However, the girl he fancied just had to share screenshots of their private conversation on her social media account, and now he was suddenly the target of incessant bullying. His rather slavish attitude in the damning conversation had propelled him to campus-wide stardom, and he had now been crowned ‘The Simp.’ It was the only nickname that everyone would publicly refer to him as.Thomas was apoplectic and exasperated. He wanted to vent out his frustration—he wanted to get back at the bastard couple who dragged his name through the mudl! However, he just could not bring himself to do it. In fact, he did n
Fear clouded him. There was no way that Thomas and his unimpressively small figure could ever overpower the two athletes in front of him.With his head hanging low and his voice even lowlier, Thomas muttered, “I just wanna go home. Please let me through.”Seeing how they could not provoke Thomas into fighting back, the two athletes held off on their bullying too. In the end, they gave him the finger before letting him pass.The hoo-ha they created had attracted many eyes, and soon, accusatory fingers followed. They were laughing at him, jeering and sneering; Thomas had never felt so humiliated in his life. He could feel a sniffle coming on, but he blinked back the tears in his eyes as his walk quickened into a jog down the stairs. He just wanted to go home—the sooner, the better.What awaited him downstairs, however, was Cara Davis, who had the most dazzling smile he had ever seen. She casually strolled towards him.Today, she was dressed in a gorgeous, fashionable outfit made fro
There was no shortage of bystanders, yet not a single person present offered to help Thomas, including those who knew him personally. Instead, everyone merely stood back and watched the debacle unfold with cold negligence.It went without saying that Thomas did not exactly have the best reputation at his university. He was an insufferable showboat who drew the ire of many people. Of course, there was also the fact that Daryl was so powerful that no sane person would ever think of going against him.These two factors contributed to Thomas's pitiful state. No one stuck their necks out for him; instead, there were more who whipped out their phones and started capturing videos, and a few more who decided to wedge in a few caustic sneers and jeers.Thomas had never felt so alone and hapless in his life. He could not stop the waterfall of tears rushing down his cheeks.He was saved by a lecturer who was conveniently passing by. Daryl cared enough about his conduct that he shot his underl
Just as Thomas was about to put his plan to action, a sleek beauty with a sloping roofline and a mellifluous revving engine pulled over in front of him and halted Thomas on his path. The driver rolled down the windows, and he was met with an all too familiar—and irritating—face, asking, “Your sister said she needed me to take you home, so get in—whoa, what’s with all the nasty bruises?”It was none other than Zayn himself. He had been waiting at the gate for some time now, and when he saw Thomas, he waved. Though seeing that his brother-in-law kept missing him, Zayn decided to drive close and upfront.The bruises on the young man’s face were the first thing he noticed about him, followed by a bloodied nose. One of Thomas’s eyes was swollen too, which altogether made it obvious that he had just recently got into a fisticuff. Judging by how puffy and red both of his eyes were, Zayn was sure that the boy had just cried.Thomas’s attention was on Zayn’s Audi A7. It was so out of left fi
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
