Chapter 201 Punished For Not Behaving Appropriately

“You’re absolutely right, Mr. Hyde.”Jekyll, who had been standing off to the side, seemed to have thought of something as he piped up, “Mr. Hyde, I just remembered—the son-in-law who beat up Skylar that day was called Zayn too.”“Oh? Is that so? Tell Skylar to come up here,” demanded Mr. Hyde after taking a breath. He was lazily sitting on the sofa while a young woman was giving him a massage. He looked like he was thoroughly enjoying it.However, Nathan could not bring himself to calm down. As he was faced with Mr. Hyde, he could not help but feel an invisible force pressuring him. It was even worse than when Nathan was facing his father. His muscles were in an unending taut state.In his eyes, Mr. Hyde was keeping an unleashed beast hiding within him which made Nathan’s skin crawl even more.Hence, a deep fear of Mr. Hyde had spawned from the depths of Nathan’s heart, and he was beginning to understand why Mr. Hyde was so acclaimed in Waltz City. At the same time, a rush of exh

Chapter 202 Alexandra Runs Away From Home

He answered him regardless, “His name is Zayn Larson.”Mr. Hyde dug his cigarette butt into the man’s palm, before rising from his seat. He muttered on and on to himself, “Zayn Larson, Zayn Larson… That's actually a nice name.”Nathan was speechless.‘I’m speechless, I’m here asking you to seek revenge on Zayn. Why are you complimenting his name?’‘I can’t wrap my head around how Mr. Hyde is like at all. I can’t shake the feeling that he’s a dangerous, unpredictable threat.’Mr. Hyde asked Skylar again, “The son-in-law who beat you—his name is also Zayn Larson?”After that, Mr. Hyde asked Skylar again, “The son-in-law that beat you is also called Zayn Larson?”“Yes, that’s right! You’re right, Mr. Hyde. His name’s also Zayn Larson, and he’s very disgusting…” As Skylar was frantically nodding his head, he was on the verge of running his mouth again. However, he instantly noticed Jekyll’s glaring eyes boring into his soul. As Skylar recalled that Mr. Hyde disliked talkative people

Chapter 203 Let Her Go Right Now If You’re Not Looking To Get Killed...

However, she immediately stopped in her tracks to give herself a quick pep talk. ‘I can’t just do that. It’s only been an hour since I left home, I can’t give up now! The characters in my novels would never give up so quickly! They’re all so determined, and so strong too. If I feel like all hope is lost and drag myself home, wouldn’t my father look down on me even more? Plus, I have faith that I’ll run into Mr. Right—I just know it.’Promptly after, Alexandra had the motivation to continue on with her journey.That was when unexpectedly she picked up on the sound of sobbing coming from her left. When she turned her head to get an idea of what was happening, what she saw immediately caused a fresh swell of fury to course through her veins.There were three hooligans crowded around a scrawny student down an alley—it looked like they were pushing and bullying the poor victim around. Livid, she strode towards the trio and shouted to them in aggravation. “What are you all doing? Stop thi

Chapter 204 It’s You?!

The voice had appeared out of nowhere, and with its resonance and deep register, it startled everybody present.Alexandra, who was already on the brink of despair, was quivering at the sound of the mysterious voice. She raised her head to see a tall, shadowy figure standing on the balcony of a second floor apartment, looking down at them from above.She could not place the voice’s face from where she was due to the poor lighting, Though, the shock that overwhelmed her senses was so immense that she could feel her heart convulse!Hot tears spilled from her eyes as a wave of thrilling relief washed over her. She muttered softly, “My hero… my hero’s finally here…”“Who’s there? You’re going to pay for your cockiness!”“P*ss off right now, or I’ll beat the sh*t out of you!”“P*ss off!”The three hooligans continued to rile up the shadowy figure with their insolent yelling, obviously unaware of who exactly they were up against.The figure on the balcony snickered as he leapt off of

Chapter 205 Alexandria Cries

Letting out a few coughs, he questioned Alexandra, “Why are you here? Where are your bodyguards?”Alexandra came to her senses and retracted her gaze from Zayn before she admitted, “I ran away from home.”“Ah?” sounded Zayn, taken aback. ‘Why does it sound so strange—the idea of her running away from home? Regardless, I’m sure she’ll get over it soon. After all, she’s a lady. It's not out of the ordinary for her to run away after an argument.’“Is that so?” replied Zayn. He turned around, only to realize that the middle schooler had fled from the scene out of fear.“Since you’re safe and sound now, I’ll take my leave.” said Zayn. He did not want to be affiliated with Alexandra in too many ways.However, as soon as he turned away, Alexandra called out to him in protest. “Wait!”Zayn turned his head in suspicion before asking dubiously, “Is there something else?”Alexandria found it hard to remain calm at that point in time. Her body wanted to be in control, but she could not find

Chapter 206 Why Don’t I Stay At Your Place?

Confused, Zayn brought Alexandra to have supper.‘I was going to go home, but I guess there’s nothing I can do now except send Faye a text message telling her that I’ll be home later.’Faye did not ask him for a reason—all she did was reply with a simple, ‘Oh.’Coincidentally, there was nothing for them to eat nearby, so they had to hail a taxi and travel somewhere a little further away. In the end, he brought Alexandra to a barbecue place.Zayn watched as Alexandra wolfed down her food. She did not even notice that her hair was in a disheveled mess.Although Alexandra was dressed like a man, she revealed her true self as a woman. Furthermore, she had dropped her masculine act, and instead showed off more of her feminine side.Zayn then realized that Alexandra looked quite beautiful. ‘She’s on the same level as Faye. They’re both stunning beauties, but she looks more like an innocent woman.’Alexandra was very attractive—so attractive in fact that occasional gazes flitted in her

Chapter 207 They Seem Like An Actual Couple

”Because there’s no place for you to sleep,” said Zayn.Alexandra shot back, “I can sleep on the sofa.”“I’m sleeping on the sofa,” he clarified.“Huh? Why? Why aren’t you sleeping on a bed?” Alexandra looked confused.Zayn sighed before confessing, “Because my wife doesn’t want me to…”‘Hang on. Why am I telling her this?’He quickly rephrased his sentence and said, “In any case, it’s inconvenient. Plus, you’re a beautiful woman. What would people think if you stayed the night at my place?”When Alexandra heard the words ‘beautiful woman,’ she tuned out the rest of the sentence. Her eyes sparkled even more brightly. ‘Wow, he actually thinks I’m beautiful! I’m so happy…’Alexandra had failed to notice it, but she was head over heels in love.“Then, where would I stay then? I can’t just live on the streets now, can I?” said Alexandra indignantly as she stared at Zayn with pleading eyes. ‘Is she actually cajoling me right now?’ Zayn was covered in goosebumps.Although Alexand

Chapter 208 You’re A Jerk, Just Like The Rest Of Them!

While in the taxi, Zayn had a tight frown on his brow. ‘Who were those people in that car?’‘Are they following Alexandra, or are they following me?‘They clearly seem to be experts, exceptional at tracking people and concealing their presence. If I wasn’t on my toes, I probably would’ve missed them. Whatever it is, I’d better watch my step.’Instead of letting his guard down, he continued to observe the two suspicious individuals. He realized that the moment his taxi had hit the road, the car quickly followed them on the same route.Zayn asked the taxi driver to make a turn into a residential area that had a more complicated road network. After that, he got off the taxi and made a few rounds around the area on foot before returning to Alexandra’s hotel once more, under the impression that he had managed to ditch the two. Soon after, however, he realized that they had also returned to their parked spot on the side of the road.‘From what I’m seeing, I can say for sure that they’re

Chapter 209 Could I Have Caught Feelings For Him?

”Fifi, I’ll admit that I met up with a girl friend who I got to know from a while back, but I only had supper with her. It’s not what you’re thinking of at all!” Zayn hurriedly said.However, when Faye heard his poorly-made excuse, she grew even more unsympathetic. Her words were so cold that Zayn was half-expecting her breath to freeze into ice. “A girlfriend? Zayn Larson, good on you! What fantastic work! You’ve even got yourself a little girlfriend!”Zayn’s mouth was left momentarily agape before he quickly clasped his hand over it. “Curse my mouth. I misspoke. I didn’t mean to say girlfriend, I meant to say a female friend! She’s actually…”Faye interrupted Zayn again, but this time, her voice was dripping with complete and utter hatred. “Enough! I don’t want to listen to your explanations anymore! Zayn Larson, I’ve told you before that I have no problem with you fooling around with other women as I haven’t been fulfilling my duties as a wife. However, you cannot bring her home,

Chapter 210 How Exactly Are You Going To Protect Me?

When Faye saw him, her pupils contracted. It felt like someone had a tight grip on her heart.‘Has he been sleeping out here the entire night? Is he stupid?’Zayn was woken up by the sound of the door opening, so he hurriedly got up. However, because he had been in that position for so long, his right leg had gone a little numb. He staggered trying to get up. He was close to falling, but thanks to his quick reflexes, he managed to prevent himself from injury by holding onto the wall.“Fifi, you’re awake?” Zayn started, “Fifi, you’ve got to believe me. Yesterday was really all just a misunderstanding. I’ll admit that I did go out for supper with a female friend, but she’s androgynous, and we aren’t close at all. I got to know her when I drove to 4S to get the car fixed that one time…”Zayn hurriedly explained how he and Alexandra came to know each other from the beginning to the end. He emphasized that fact that he had only met Alexandra yesterday completely by coincidence. He told
