George and the others left jubilantly with the three million dollar cheque. Once they had left, Zayn approached Faye with the intention of expressing his gratitude. “Thank you for doing that earlier, honey.”Faye looked less than thrilled. She felt revulsed knowing that Zayn had his gaze fixated on her. With knitted eyebrows, she muttered apathetically, “Hmmm.”She was about to walk out of the room when Zayn called out from behind her, “Honey.”“Anything else?” Faye turned around, impatience written all over her face. Zayn stared at her and said, “They don’t believe you, but I believe that you’re innocent.”His touching words moved her so much that she had to shake off her disbelief. She asked, “Why do you believe me? I went into his office, and both of us were together in the room without anyone else.”Zayn was startled by her question. He could not think of an immediate answer for her. From any logical person’s perspective, it did not help Faye’s case when she had dressed so
They came to understand that Violet Vision Media Corp would certainly rise to a new peak under the leadership of the new chairman!Zayn returned to his office. He rubbed his temples to relax. He did not manage to sleep well last night because the floor had been too cold. What a pathetic reason to have lost sleep over! Feeling a little drowsy now, he got some shut-eye for a short while, then he called his assistant to bring in a cup for coffee to refresh himself. It did not take long before there was a knock on the door followed by a sweet voice saying, “Sir, your coffee’s here.”“Come in,” Zayn said nonchalantly before he continued to screen through the documents. Two hours ago, Yvonne had arrived at Violet Vision Media Corp way ahead of time. It was the final day of recruitment, so she had to seize the opportunity properly for sure!Ever since she found out that Zayn was the chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp, she had been overwhelmed with emotions all this time without a s
Zayn finally noticed that something was off, so he raised his head. “Haven’t I ordered you to leave…? Oh, Yvonne, it’s you, huh?”“Indeed, it’s me, Zayn. We meet again.” Yvonne batted her eyelashes. She had a surprised expression that matched her beautiful face and her graceful figure. One had no choice but to acknowledge that she was so exquisite that few men could resist her. As a man, Zayn was enticed by Yvonne’s feminine beauty that momentarily captured him in a trance as well. On the other hand, Yvonne managed to notice his fleeting trance and the desire seeping from his gaze successfully. Elated, she was even more confident about seducing Zayn!She began to gloat. So what if Zayn had a beautiful wife like Faye at home? She still managed to seduce him. “Who gave you the permission to come here?” Zayn recovered from his stupor and said with a frown. “I brought you the coffee that you asked for.” Yvonne stuck her tongue out and feigned mischief that matched her beautiful ap
She made a determined effort of clutching Zayn’s hands at once while pleading with tearful eyes, “Zayn, you may hit me if you’re angry. Hit me, you may even beat me to death! As long as I can get your forgiveness, I’m willing to die in your hands.”Zayn was speechless.She was a really good actress. “That’s enough.” Zayn pulled back his hand and said coldly, “Stop putting up your bad performance and leave now.”Yvonne was recalcitrant. There was no reason why Zayn was completely indifferent towards her because she was beautifully dressed and she looked sexy today. Soon, she noticed Zayn swallowing his saliva secretly, so she immediately dispelled the doubt in her mind. It was apparent that he was successfully enamored by her. He was just putting up a front on purpose. Yvonne was relieved. As long as Zayn had the sexual orientation of a normal man, she had confidence that she could take him down. “Zayn, do you really hate me that much that you won’t even give me a chance?” Te
She had never seen Zayn so terrifying. After walking out of the office, she realized that her back was drenched in sweat. She was panting loudly and had only managed to recover from the shock after a long while. Oh, God, Zayn was too overbearing, wasn’t he? He was more formidable than any of the big bosses that she had encountered in the past!This showed that Zayn was certainly a super-wealthy rich kid. Only a person of nobility could exude such a powerful aura and overbearingness. Even though she was driven out of the office, she was not discouraged by this turn of events. On the contrary, she was even more motivated. She pledged to herself in her heart that she would take Zayn down for certain. She was not asking for much; she would be satisfied with being Zayn’s mistress. …Nothing seemed to be going right for Ethan Capel recently. Ever since he had been slapped by Jordan during George’s 70th birthday party and was thoroughly discredited, he was completely out of luck. Aside
“Huh?” Zayn was demoralized. “What do you mean ‘Huh’? You can tell when it’s time to eat, but you can’t tell when it’s time to be home early? Take a look at the time—it’s thirty minutes past nine! Do you actually expect us to wait for you to come home? Who do you think you are? You’re just a freeloader who stuffs his face and slacks around like a fat, lazy pig!” His mother-in-law, Ruby, always had a way with her words. Her incessant nagging could go on for hours with varying levels of insults. He could never bring himself to talk back to her either. Faye was on her last straw, so she quickly piped up, “I stored some leftovers in the fridge. You can heat the food up yourself. Give it a break, Mom. You can stop yelling at him.”Ruby rolled her eyes before trying to justify herself. “What’s wrong with giving him an earful? He deserves it more than anyone else in this house! He’s been unemployed for four years, and he just bums around all day doing absolutely nothing. This man has no
Feeling her eyes boring right through him, Zayn felt like his heart had been caught in his throat, so he frantically tried to walk away so he could avoid her gaze.There was no way Faye recognized him, right?Luckily, Faye shifted her attention away from him. She thought she was insane to compare Zayn to Violet Vision’s chairman.Violet Vision’s chairman was an affluent tycoon holding a high position in office. His presence was infinitely powerful compared to Zayn’s, who was a lowly man who married into the Carter family. She could still accept him for his lack of lifeskills, but he was also a coward. He was as timid as a mouse, and he could never stand up for himself. Zayn was a far cry from the chairman.Faye shook away the absurd thought. She replied to Ruby thoughtfully, “It’s not someone that I’m acquainted with. I think he was wearing a mask because he didn’t want me to see his face. After all, he’s a man of class.”Ruby recognized that beguiled look on Faye’s face from anyw
Faye’s heart melted with pity upon hearing Ethan’s words. She nodded and agreed, “Alright, send me the address and I'll drop by later.”“Alright, alright, alright! I’m really glad that you can come, Fifi!” Ethan was overjoyed. The excitement on his face vanished at once after he hung up the call. The corners of his lips began to curl upwards into a cunning smile. He muttered to himself, “Hmph. I was afraid that you might not come. As long as you’re here, you won’t be able to escape anymore!”He sniggered cunningly. Faye was unaware that Ethan had already come up with an evil plan against her. When she got off work and came out of the office, she frowned at the sight of Zayn waiting for her in the lobby. “You’ve gotten off of work, Fifi.” Zayn walked towards Faye with a bright smile on his face. Faye nodded nonchalantly. She noticed that many people were pointing at her secretly and whispering, “Who’s this man? He looks poor and pathetic.”“How is he even worthy of speaking to
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
