Roxanne was struggling desperately on the inside. She would certainly be wasted after consuming the glass of liquor, but if she refused it, she would not be able to make it through her current hardships!After weighing it in her mind, she decided to drink it. “Alright! I’ll drink! I hope you remember your promise, Mr. Coleman.”“What a joke! Don’t you know who Rickard Coleman is? You have my word and my word is gold! I’m just going to put it out here today. I will sign the contract if you finish the drink!” Mr. Coleman generously declared. Roxanne’s interest was piqued. She yearned for the funding so badly that, in the end, she clenched her teeth to brace herself and picked up the glass, downing it in one gulp!It was a drink with a very high alcohol content and a strong aftertaste, about 100 milliliters in volume. After she had finished it, her entire body swayed. Her face flushed scarlet and her eyes were misty from drunkenness. She let out a burp and said, “Mr. Coleman, I-I’v

The sudden change startled everyone in the room. Zayn furrowed his brows and looked at the scene before him. He was supposed to have a drink with friends that night and had not expected to encounter such an incident again. He could tell at one glance that this group of people were scum who were about to commit violent acts on Roxanne. Roxanne’s face was flushed scarlet, an obvious sign that she had had one too many drinks. Even though he could not stand Roxanne, she was a former friend and he would still lend her a hand when she was in this kind of trouble. Roxanne seized the opportunity when the two burly men loosened their grip on her to swiftly run to Zayn. She dove into his arms like a panic-stricken maiden. She sobbed and said, “Save me, Zayn. They’re going to rape me, boo-hoo…”Being held by her in such a manner made Zayn feel rather awkward. Roxanne was a pretty woman with a rather attractive figure, so it was truly indecent for her to hold on to him that tightly.He a

Zayn was no fool. Naturally, he understood what Roxanne meant by that. She wanted to offer herself to him to repay his kindness. Truth be told, both Roxanne’s beauty and figure were unmatched, and she was attractive beyond comparison. “You’re drunk. Have a good rest,” said Zayn nonchalantly, indicating his rejection. Roxanne said in all seriousness, “I’m not drunk and I’m fully sober now! Zayn, I really do like you and it was my fault during the previous incident. However, you know me. I did it to try to get your attention because I just couldn’t forget my feelings for you all this time, and I took our past to heart. Franky, I wasn’t actually trying to humiliate you.”Roxanne tugged at her clothes shyly. Zayn’s gaze grew ever colder. How could a man of his status not tell that Roxanne was putting on an act? Roxanne had just left him with a favorable impression, but with this, that had vanished completely. “You disappoint me greatly, Roxanne.”“Zayn, I…” Roxanne panicked as

Luke was highly invigorated. It felt like he had gone back to his school days—he was the boss’s right-hand man, and he and the boys were out to give their enemy hell.“There it is, Mr. Larson! That *sshole’s opening ceremony is underway! It was all thanks to him and his yahoos that our new company got shut down before it even got up and running, and that’s not counting just how many of our people they screwed! They really thought they were above you, boss! They should be punished!” Luke spat through gritted teeth. His seething indignance was palpable.Zayn nodded and strode toward the venue. It was a bustling sight; the company had invited quite a few people to the event, many of them from the media.Zayn was not some hot-headed moron whose idea of vengeance consisted of showing up personally and making a scene. The only courtesy he needed to return was to call the proper authorities and force the company to close down for “investigations”.By this point, Zayn’s influence and power

All Lysithea saw in the grin was a cold, merciless void. She had known Raiden long and well enough that she could tell just how murderous his intentions were from the width of his smile.Even within an elite organization like Sicut In Caelo, Raiden was a powerhouse. He was up there with their strongest fighters, his capabilities only eclipsed by the untouchable Saint and Ezra. Worse, as the years passed, something about Raiden’s overall countenance had taken a dark turn into the unsettling and impenetrable. Being around him always felt distressful…or even suffocating.He, as one of the Four Highlords whose positions were second only to the Saint, ruled the southern Rheasian region. His prominence within the organization, despite being only thirty-five years old, was a testament to his prodigious talent and skill. It was why Lysithea was sure that becoming Raiden’s enemy would very well be Zayn’s doom.She gritted her teeth, as though making a decision, before declaring, “All you rea
