“Uh…” The corners of Peter's lips twitched twice. Miles did not bother to show him the slightest respect at all. However, Miles genuinely could afford not to give him the slightest respect. After all, Everest Group was a super amazing company in the country with its market value exceeding a few billion dollars. Miles was someone that he as an experienced businessman in the media industry could not afford to offend. On the other hand, Miles Morales was also the son of a wealthy man widely known in the social circle. He was known for being imperious, arrogant, and a casanova who dated countless women. Peter was aware of Miles’ impressive reputation that preceded him prior to their meeting. He knew that a rich kid of Miles’ rank was not someone he could afford to offend despite being an experienced businessman in the media industry. All at once, he felt rather troubled. If this person were some other female celebrity, he would have given his consent to Miles right away.However, An
At that very moment, Peter experienced unprecedented stress. The cold sweat on his forehead streamed down his jaw while blood drained from his face. Even the chubby flesh on his face was trembling in fear. The truth was that Peter was an important figure. He was the chairman of Black Athens Media Corp with family assets that amounted to a few billion dollars. He had plenty of experience in managing affairs, so logically, he was mentally very strong. However, the stress that he was experiencing now had surpassed the limit of his tolerance. Panic and terror consumed him whole. It was because he had discovered that not only Miles but a large portion of the people here were rich kids of society as well. They came from powerful families, and he could not afford to offend the combined power of these people with his measly chairman’s position in Black Athens Media Corp!Gulp!He swallowed a mouthful of saliva heavily and said, “You’ve misunderstood me, Mr. Morales. I don’t mean that. Yo
Meanwhile, the only person left that Annabelle could count on was Zayn.She was not a fool. She could tell from Peter’s dread towards Miles earlier as well as Miles’ unruly behavior that Miles was definitely a bigshot that she could not afford to offend!Despite being this famous celebrity with a superior status in the eyes of ordinary people, she knew very well that there were way too many people more formidable than her in society. She was just a toy worthless of a mention in the midst of these capitalists and bigshots. She had witnessed with her own eyes many celebrities in the entertainment industry flatter and fawn the owners of big businesses and bigshots without upholding the slightest hint of integrity with these people. Had she not been talented enough and kept a low profile, she would have already been toyed with by countless capitalists in view of her fame and beauty. She refused to live a life like that, not ever!She found that she could not accept the wretched and
Miles moved so swiftly and swung his leg very strongly, aiming straight at Zayn’s lower body. He was planning to kick Zayn’s balls so hard that the latter would be rendered infertile.Miles’ attack was ruthless. Zayn did not even offend him, yet he attacked him so mercilessly. One could imagine the evil deeds that he committed on usual days and how many people were defeated by him just thinking about it. Sombreness flashed past Zayn’s eyes for a moment, and he let out a heavy grunt. He did not plan to be very hostile to Miles initially and merely found Miles an eyesore at most. However, Miles’ actions turned his heart cold and ruthless. Amelia and the other female celebrities widened their eyes and screamed in astonishment when they witnessed Miles’s leg aiming for Zayn’s lower body. In their perception, Zayn would certainly be ruined from such a blow!The corner of Miles’ lips curled into a smirk. He felt especially elated in his heart because there was nothing more enjoyable
His lackeys followed his orders obediently and rushed towards Zayn immediately. A few of them frequently engaged in fights and were rather skilled in martial arts as well, thus they did not rush towards Zayn empty-handed. Instead, they conveniently grabbed a few beer bottles on the table as weapons. One had no choice but to acknowledge that it was a rather grand scene with at least 13 to 14 adult men charging towards Zayn menacingly. If another common person were in Zayn’s shoes, the person would have already been dumbstruck with fear. That was the truth. Other than Zayn, Annabelle and the others were screaming in trepidation upon witnessing the situation. They were utmost terrified. Albeit being famous celebrities, they were also ordinary humans who were physically weak. They mingled with educated, cultured people and barely engaged in quarrels with others, let alone being involved in such a huge conflict. Peter’s expression was flooded with unease as well. Panic-stricken, he re
Zayn’s expression was calm without much emotion in his expression. He did not have the slightest pride or excitement on his face as if he had just done something not worthy of a mention. He released Annabelle and said, “Ms. Laking, I’m sorry for acting rashly with you during the urgent situation earlier.”Annabelle moved away from Zayn’s grip and found that she was actually feeling a sense of loss!This made her blush, so she hastily shook her head and said, “I’m...I’m fine. I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for saving me.”Zayn smiled and said, “I hardly lifted a finger.”Amelia and the other few female celebrities were so envious upon witnessing the scene when they recovered from their surprise! They endlessly cursed Annabelle in their hearts for being such a cunning fox and taking their man. Indeed, they regarded Zayn as their man. He was rich, had a good figure, was skilled in combat, and was so polite. He was simply the legendary Prince Charming in the stories!As f
Zayn knew exactly when to stop without going too far. “I will beat you up every single time I see you bullying women from now on,” Zayn spoke as if he was a senior to Miles, “Do you hear me?”Miles was completely afraid of Zayn now. His neck shrunk for a moment upon hearing Zayn’s order. He felt the fear as if he was back in the principal's office after getting in trouble at school, so he hastily nodded and said, “I hear you, I hear you. I won’t do it again from now on!”Zayn turned around and declared to Peter and the others, “It’s over. Let’s go back to our dinner.”In the meantime, Peter and the others had yet to recover from their surprise. The incident earlier came as a shock to them, especially to Peter. He knew about Miles’ identity as the son of Everest Group’s owner, so he was not someone to be offended. Now that Zayn had beaten Miles up like that, his action was no different than slapping Kevan’s face. Given Kevan’s temperament, he certainly would never leave the matte
Upon hearing that, Peter’s eyes lit up. He was even more determined to pursue the idea of buttering up Zayn!Annabelle bit her lower lip and took the initiative to fill Zayn’s glass. She expressed her heartfelt gratitude by saying, “Mr. Larson, I was lucky to have your help in that incident earlier. Thank you! If there’s anything that you need from me from now on, just say as you please. I will certainly do my best to fulfill your requests, Mr. Larson!”Noticing Annabelle’s beautiful face that was visibly touched, Zayn suddenly felt mischievous and blurted out, “Will you fulfill any request of mine?”Annabelle was stunned for a moment. She immediately thought about something else upon noticing Zayn’s current expression, and in turn, her face blushed pink. She hesitated for a moment before nodding strenuously as if she had made an important decision and said, “Yes! Your wish is my command!”Zayn was only teasing her casually, so he did not expect her to actually take it seriously. H
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
