Francis inhaled sharply. Only now he knew just how formidable Zayn was. He thought about how he had insulted Zayn earlier and had been so close to death because of his actions. He could not refrain from turning back to look at Zayn as he felt lingering fear in his heart. At the same time, Zayn’s identity was exposed. Many people discovered his presence, and it stirred up a heated discussion amongst the crowd. They stayed far away from Zayn to keep a safe distance. As a result, the people seated around the tables next to Zayn moved away, and a large area of space was vacated, leaving only Zayn seated over there. It was a peculiar scene. Zayn chuckled to himself. It seemed that he had turned into the plague now. He had still been an influential person a week ago such that the high-ranking officials and respectable figures wanted to suck up to him. Now, everyone began to keep him at a distance just because of Mia. “What? Zayn is here?”Mr. Otto was chatting with a few friends w
“Aren’t you afraid of offending Mia by coming to meet me at this time?” Zayn asked out of curiosity as he looked at Shaelyn before him. Shaelyn was dressed up for the event today. She donned an elegant, graceful gown, and the makeup on her face accentuated her exquisite facial features. Her svelte figure and sweet quality complemented her feminine charms perfectly. A woman like her would always be the center of attention regardless of where she was. Allana’s gaze was fixed upon Zayn all this time in the distance. She watched as Shaelyn sat down next to him and an ineffable awful feeling arose in her heart. She had always been absolutely confident in her appearance all this time and believed that she was the finest woman regardless of where she was. Nevertheless, she found Shaelyn to be even prettier than herself, thus she felt recalcitrant about that. Shaelyn’s appearance drew the attention of many people similarly. Zayn was already the center of attention in the entire scene
Shaelyn shook her head and said, “I’ll cut ties with the Aeolus House, so I won’t implicate them.”As she spoke, she widened her mouth and showed it to Zayn who saw it at once. There was a white capsule in her oral cavity that contained arsenic. Shaelyn would die of consuming poison as soon as she consumed it. When she was dead, Aeolus House would not be implicated naturally. “Sigh, why do you have to do that?!” Zayn heaved a long sigh and said in frustration. He had always tried to remove himself from worldly affairs only to find himself being involved with more and more of it. Shaelyn shook her head and persuaded him, “You don’t need to be burdened by this. It’s my choice. In addition, I’m doing it for my own purpose too. If you can defeat Mia this time, you won’t have any reason to reject me anymore from now on. With you looking after me, my status will be different, and I’ll be able to rise to the top such that even the Aeolus House will bow to me in submission. Therefore, t
Hanson shivered in fear. He hastily said to her in flattery, “Yes, yes, yes. You’re absolutely right, Master. What can a weak Zayn do in your presence?”Mia glared at him then shot a gaze at Zayn. She did not attempt to conceal her murderous intent toward Zayn in the slightest bit. There were thousands of people present, yet no one could escape the chills that traveled up their spines. “It’s going to be a good show!”“Yes, Mia and Zayn are going to fight! Given that they are both highly-skilled master fighters, the battle between them will certainly be exciting beyond comparison!”“My effort to attend the birthday party is not in vain.”“I have no choice but to acknowledge Zayn’s boldness. He has the courage to take the initiative to come to Mia and crash the party. He’s really quite something!”“Hmph, boldness? In my opinion, he’s an idiot. What sort of person is Mia? She is renowned for being a she-devil who took out her enemies over a decade ago. Now that more than a decade
She admired Zayn very much for his composure. He was still eating and drinking on his own accord and was not bothered by the situation in the slightest bit. Just as Hanson was about to down his drink, Zayn took action. He tossed the wine bottle strenuously toward Hanson all of a sudden. He did it so swiftly that it was barely noticeable by the eyes of the ordinary people. They could only hear a sharp sonic boom as if the air was sliced through. It made a piercing noise. The bottle sped through the distance of tens of meters in less than a second. It arrived before Hanson’s face and was about to smash into his face! One could imagine how Hanson would lose consciousness and his face would be marred by wounds if it struck him. Hanson was an acquired fighter, after all, so he could sense the momentum of the wine bottle instantly and felt chills run down his spine immediately. His face turned pale in fear. Meanwhile, standing next to him, Mia made a move. She extended her hand val
With every step Zayn took, his presence expanded. The enormous vineyard fell into a hush. It was so silent that one could hear the sound of a needle dropping on the ground. Everyone held their breath and stared at Zayn closely. Not everyone had the boldness of challenging the entire Griffin family all alone. Shaelyn watched him closely from behind. Her fists were clenched and she was so nervous that she could not breathe properly. Zayn’s magnanimous silhouette left behind an impression that could not be erased in her mind!In truth, other than her, many people shared the same opinion. They were deeply shocked by the sight of Zayn’s back. Allana widened her eyes as her breathing quickened. The sight of Zayn’s silhouette was truly so attractive that she might never forget this for the rest of her life!“Zayn is really something. It’s no wonder he is capable of training to this extent by himself at such a young age. There are thousands of people here. An ordinary person in his p
However, although Hanson dodged it, the Griffins standing behind him were not as lucky. They were blasted backward by the impact like bowling pins and ended up severely injured as they screamed in agony. The 3,000-odd guests were absolutely terrified upon witnessing the scene. They inhaled sharply in surprise because they did not expect Zayn to be so strong that the bronze statue that was over a hundred kilograms in weight would seem like a basketball as he lifted it into the air. So many people were severely injured from that single blow. Mia finally lost her temper. She widened her eyes and let out a loud roar, “You’re dead, Zayn!”Then, she could not hold herself back anymore as she began attacking Zayn right away. Zayn had no choice but to acknowledge that Mia was unbelievably powerful. That one strike from her turned his vision black. He felt as if the sky had been torn and collapsed onto himself. If this had taken place before Zayn defeated Xander, he would not have been
There were many women among the crowd, and they found that they were deeply attracted by Zayn’s intense charm!Shaelyn and Allana could feel their hearts racing and beating loudly. Their eyes were already fixed upon Zayn, not for any other reason but because he was so very elegant, charming, and attractive at this very moment. Shaelyn bit her lower lip tightly and clenched her fists. She knew that she would never forget Zayn in her lifetime. If he was killed by Mia for real, she refused to live anymore as well. Instead, she would die with him. A woman who had seen way too many false displays of affection and feigned romances in life like her would never fall for a man easily, especially when she had never experienced a memorable incident with this man. However, in reality, she fell in love with Zayn irrevocably just like this. Her love for him was destined in her life. It was destructive, but there was nothing she could do to stop it. On the other hand, while Allana’s feelings
