Apart from being conceited, he had a temper too. He could see how the Smiths had treated him earlier. Nevertheless, out of respect for Alexandra, he did not make things difficult for the Smiths. “Hold on!” Alexandra hastily called out to Zayn. “Yeah?”Alexandra was blushing shyly from his stare. She said in a girlish tone, “I have yet to buy you dinner to thank you for doing me such a huge favor. Why don’t you stay and have dinner here?”Victor immediately stepped forward and said enthusiastically, “That’s right, Zayn. We’re fortunate to have had your help tonight. You should stay for dinner.” He spoke to Zayn as if he was determined to be Zayn’s future father-in-law. The joy and excitement in his gaze could not be concealed anymore. What a joke! The person before him was actually the chairman of Violet Vision, the employer of Mr. Hyde and still so young. Zayn’s future was limitless! If he could marry someone in the Smith family for real, the Smiths would be advancing to the to
The rest of the people shared the same doubt too. Alexandra shook her head and said, “I don’t know either.”Rachel held Alexandra’s hand and asked softly, “Sweetie, since he’s the man who married into the Carters, how does he get to be with you then? Isn’t he cheating in that sense?”“He’s already gotten a divorce from his wife.”Upon hearing that, Rachel and Victor exchanged glances. They were both relieved for a moment, yet Alexandra heaved a sigh immediately before saying nonchalantly, “I lied to both of you about something. Zayn and I aren’t dating. We’re just platonic friends.”“What?”Everyone in the Smith family could not help gasping aloud. …After getting out of the hotel, Zayn and his group of people were immediately surrounded by numerous people downstairs. The vast majority of these people were guests from the party earlier. Despite leaving the party early, they did not leave the location immediately. Instead, they were waiting outside the hotel despite it already
Thomas shouted so loudly with excitement apparent in his voice. The expression on his face was fervent as if he was meeting God Himself. His reaction startled the people in the surroundings whereas the bombshell standing next to him was dumbstruck in bewilderment as well. Indeed, Thomas had noticed Zayn. After all, Zayn was right in front of him, surrounded by the numerous experienced business owners who were flattering and cajoling him. Since Thomas shouted so loudly and he was standing nearby, Zayn heard him. Upon hearing the voice, Zayn looked over and met Thomas’s eyes. Complicated emotions flashed in his gaze for a moment, then he shifted his gaze and pretended not to hear him. Strictly speaking, he was no longer Thomas’s brother-in-law now because he had already gotten a divorce from Faye. As a result, he pretended not to hear Thomas in order to avoid disrupting Faye’s life. Nevertheless, that was not the case for Thomas. He was obviously aware that Zayn had already not
“There are a lot of attention-seekers out there these days.”Thomas felt awful upon hearing that. He attempted to explain himself with great effort, but no one believed him. Even the bombshell who idolized him previously was looking at him with a strange gaze. She felt that he must be bluffing, so her attitude toward him turned much colder. In the end, she made up an excuse and left. Thomas felt even more terrible when this happened. He was so aggrieved that he was inconsolable. He hastily went home in a rush because he wanted to clarify with his sister and find out why his brother-in-law refused to acknowledge him. Moreover, his brother-in-law had not returned home in so many days. His instinct told him that something bad must have happened. As a result, he rushed back home as fast as he could to clarify the situation!Zayn hopped into Mr. Hyde’s car and left the hotel while Sean and Hector followed from behind. Zayn never expected Thomas to be here. He felt very uneasy being ca
“What’s going on with Zayn?” Faye clutched Thomas’s shoulder vehemently. She clutched him so tightly that her nails dug into Thomas’s flesh and made him grit his teeth in pain. “It hurts, Faye. It hurts!”Faye could only loosen her grasp on Thomas. She had no idea why she was so agitated beyond her control. Her voice was tainted with anger as she demanded, “Can you please finish your sentence in one go!?”Thomas was terrified by her angry roar. His neck retracted in fear and he spoke, aggrieved, “I came running home, didn’t I? I haven’t caught my breath yet.”Ruby said from the side, “Stop blabbering and quickly tell us what happened. Did that deadbeat Zayn get himself in some trouble again?”Thomas swallowed a gulp of saliva then inhaled a deep breath conveniently to soothe his breathlessness. Then, he said, “Faye, I saw Zayn. He was at Waltz Hotel…Oh, right, Faye, why hasn’t Zayn come home for the past few days?”Upon hearing Thomas’s question, Faye’s heart was overwhelmed wit
After he said that, the three family members were completely stunned, especially Ruby and Waine. The two of them were completely dumbfounded as their eyes were wide open, unable to believe that whatever had just been said was true!It took Ruby a long while before she finally said, “Thomas, you must’ve been mistaken. How could a deadbeat like Zayn be some kind of largely influential figure?”Waine was also expressing his doubts on his face. ‘How could we not be clear about what Zayn’s background is, especially after he’s married into the Carters for four years?’Faye was the only one who shook her head stiffly as she kept it lowered. Furthermore, she was also filled with a bottomless complex expression at that moment.Frankly, deep down within Faye’s heart, she actually believed what Thomas had said, even if just a little.However, the more she felt that way, the more unhappy she was about it.Thomas tried his very best to make his point go through as he said, “It’s true! Why wou
In an indoor swimming pool located in a luxurious villa belonging to the Carters, it was clearly snowing heavily outside which caused the temperature to be chilling to the bone. However, the villa, which was more than 2000 square meter and wrapped within a huge barrier, was as hot as a summer’s day. This was because there were highly efficient heaters placed in every direction, continuously heating up the place. Hence, this was what caused the indoors of the villa to seem as if it was a summer’s day.At the time, there were more than a dozen young women swimming in the pool.Furthermore, on the beach chair next to the pool laid a man whose fair complexion was literally glistening and filled with elasticity. Furthermore, he had attractive muscular lines that are much more pleasant to look at than most body-builders. The main reason for that was because his muscles were filled with explosive energy. The man was enjoying having four extremely beautiful women serve him, where two of them
‘Right now, I can easily crush a 30cm-wide tree with my bare fists.’It was snowing particularly heavily at that moment, covering the surrounding area in a blanket of white.In that chilly environment, two figures leaped about as they engaged in an intense fight.Footprints covered the area one kilometer around them. With every step, the footprint left would quickly be covered by the heavy snowfall, only for another footprint to be made moments later.The two of them were moving at extremely high speeds, surpassing the limits of most people. Thankfully, they were in a rather remote location with few passersby. Anyone that came across them would have been thoroughly shocked by the sight and might even think they were seeing ghosts.“I concede.”After 10 minutes, the two figures finally stopped. Zayn’s fingers were wrapped around Mr. Hyde’s neck and his fingernails had already dug into his skin, causing him to bleed a little. All it would take to slit his throat neck was for Zayn t
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
