Mr. Otto hung up the call, which was the ninth consecutive one he had received. Plus, every caller had the same objective, which was to warn him to cut off all ties with Zayn. If he refused, they would all wash their hands of the Aeolus House.‘This has never happened to the Aeolus House before!‘I thought that after defeating Xander, Zayn would be able to rise up the ladder and have a bright future ahead of him. That’s why the Aeolus House thought of grabbing the opportunity to curry favor with him. In fact, we even did everything we could to pair him with Shaelyn after finding out that the two of them were close.‘However, it seems that this matter has become very complicated…’At that moment, the conference room went silent as everyone’s faces turned dour. This was because each and every one of them understood the gravity of the situation!“Mr. Otto, what are we going to do now? Many of the Aeolus House’s business partners have called, asking us to cut off all ties with Zayn La
Mr. Otto shook his head and said with a stern expression, “I’m not crazy, but Zayn has put himself into a huge calamity. If things happen the way we expect, he’ll be dead very soon. Hence, we must cut off all ties with him right now. Otherwise, we’ll end up offending Mia Walker and there will be grave consequences.”Shaelyn desperately searched Mr. Otto’s face for any hint that implied he was only joking, but she was utterly disappointed. ‘Mr. Otto has never been this serious before. He’s not joking!’“Why?” asked Shaelyn with a confused look on her face.Mr. Otto then replied, “It’s because Mia Walker’s in play now. She’s Xander’s junior and has reached the peak in her training, which is higher than Xander, so she’s much stronger than he was. Therefore, now that she has personally come out to seek vengeance for Xander, Zayn’s death is inevitable! Furthermore, just within the past half an hour, more than 10 big shots from various industries have called, warning us to cut off all tie
‘This is more than ten stories high. An ordinary person who jumps down from this height will definitely become a pile of minced meat. Not even an expert fighter would be able to avoid being severely injured if not dead.’ Conversely, it was just a trivial matter to Zayn as he leisurely used his abilities to land safely on the ground and walked away as if nothing had happened.The skills of a master fighter, a genius martial artist, were not just for show. Anyone who had reached this level would have exceeded the limits of most humans. Hence, it was only natural that such people were not judged based on ordinary human standards. After Zayn had left, a figure in red suddenly emerged beside Mr. Hyde.“Lil Zayn’s talents are even greater than I have expected. It seems that he’s improved quite a bit ever since he fought Xander.”This figure in red was none other than Lysithea. The way she appeared so abruptly, like a phantom, would have shocked most people. After all, the room’s door ha
Zayn could tell that Faye was extremely terrified as her hands were as cold as ice. He took both her hands and held them in his. He said with a smile, “Don’t worry, this is just a small matter. I can handle it.”Faye bit her lip and said, “The enemy seems to be quite powerful this time. Why don’t we go abroad and hide for a while? After all, we’ve earned enough money, more than enough for our family to live a good life overseas.”Seeing Faye’s concern and fear, Zayn felt a little ashamed. He said with a serious expression, “Don’t worry, Fifi. I can handle this. I wouldn’t lie to you.”Noticing Zayn’s determination, Faye made no more suggestions. Instead, she said, “Alright! Then, you must remember to take good care of yourself. You must stay out of trouble no matter what.”Zayn laughed and said, “I promise you, I’ll be fine.”After that, Zayn and Faye talked for quite a long time. Only when Wilson called did Zayn leave the hospital.When Zayn arrived by the roadside, a black Audi
“Fantastic!” shouted Zayn, laughing out loud when he heard their vows of loyalty.‘Mia has taken a very aggressive approach this time, coming after me with everything she has, warning everyone affiliated to me. Even the Owens and the Aeolus House have cut off all ties with me.‘I was prepared to face this battle all on my own, but I never would’ve believed both Gordon and Wilson would choose to stand with me even now. I’m actually a little touched by their decision. After all, based on the current situation, my chances of winning seem rather slim, so both of them have chosen a path that could lead to their own demise.’“Good, very good!” Zayn proudly said, “I thought I would be deserted by everyone close to me. Never would I have thought that the two of you would still be willing to follow me. Don’t worry. Someone as minor as Mia won’t be trouble for me. When I’ve gotten through this obstacle and sent Mia to meet her maker, I won’t forget what you both have done for me today!”Wils
If the situation continued, Violet Vision could very well go bankrupt.In the meantime, Leap League Advertising and Siren Security were not doing that much better either. Both of them were struggling miserably. It was obvious that all three companies would go bust or be absorbed by others if the situation persisted.On the other hand, Zayn, the chairman of all three companies, was nowhere to be seen for all three days, as if he had vanished into thin air.That being the case, many had made various assumptions. Some thought Mia had already killed Zayn, though most believed he was so terrified of her that he had used the time to flee.“Mia Walker’s just too strong, isn’t she? It’s only been a few days, yet she’s managed to cause Zayn’s huge business to crumble.”“Right? Zayn’s completely f*cked this time.”“I never liked him in the first place. That deadbeat just married into the Carters, yet he apparently ran into some absurd luck and managed to become the chairman of Violet Visio
Allana had been in a foul mood and went around in a daze because she had just found out why Zayn had left in a hurry without even greeting her that day. ‘So, he offended a super-powerful person and his family landed in some trouble.‘Right now, everyone outside is spreading rumors that Zayn’s going to die for sure this time. In fact, even our family was warned by this person, resulting in us cutting all ties with Zayn.’When Allana first heard this news, she was quite unhappy about it because it was as if she was going to lose something she liked.Hence, she could not help herself later on and went to ask Seth whether Zayn would be able to overcome the danger. In the end, Seth shook his head and seemed to be filled with pity as he said how a talent was going to be wasted just like that.Allana was no fool, so it was only natural that she understood what her father had meant. ‘This means that Zayn’s in grave danger and is most likely going to die this time.’To Allana, death was no
It was his 32nd birthday today. In the past, a fortune-teller had once told him that it was best for him not to celebrate his 32nd birthday because it would bring great disaster upon him. He found that piece of advice condescending because who cared about the feudalistic credulity at this time, what more of the great disaster. Besides celebrating his birthday, he also wanted to throw a huge party. He wanted to invite everyone he was acquainted with and those with reputable backgrounds. He ached to seize the opportunity to announce that he was back. So what if his father, Xander, was dead? He had an even more powerful backer now, and he could still have his own way in Guineve with Mia’s support!Ever since he offended Zayn, he had been suppressing his anger all this time. The people in his circle assumed that he had yielded to Zayn, so they had been slandering him behind his back. He craved this opportunity to prove himself now!Now that Mia cared about him a lot, when she found o
