All Chapters of Revenge of the Night: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

A row of burly bodyguards in suits got out of the four cars, following Silas Joshton, heir to Centersea Corporation. He looked at the mansion darkly and told his men, "All of you, stay put."He strode to the door and rang the doorbell. Queenie thought it was her friend who came. "Lar—" Quickly, she opened the door, but what she saw petrified her. It was her fiance instead of her friend standing outside. "S-Silas?" Queenie stuttered.Silas looked at Queenie and sneered. "Surprised to see me, Ms. Sanders?"Queenie had no idea what to say.He continued, "Our wedding is in two days, Ms. Sanders. I'm your fiance. At least invite me into your house."This was awkward. Silas might be her fiance, but Nox was still in her house. She quickly said, "I'd love to, but it's not a great time right now."A dark smile curled Silas' lips. "Not a great time? Are you hiding a lover inside, perhaps?"Silas barged into the house. Queenie tried to stop him, but she didn't have the strength. Silas successfull

Once again, Queenie's father misunderstood the whole thing, so Queenie could only try to explain herself. "No, Dad, listen to me. I didn't do—""You're still trying to explain yourself? Do you know no shame? Tell me, then. Who is this man? Why was he at the beach with you, and why is he at your home now?" George pointed at Nox angrily.Queenie had no idea how to explain this."Listen here, girl. Your mother got so mad last night she fainted twice! And because of you, Centersea has cut off all partnerships with us!"If you still want to be part of the family, you're coming home with me. If you stay with this bastard, you'll never be allowed back in the family again!"George stormed off after screaming at Queenie, who was now at a loss. She turned around and looked at Nox, but in the end, she tearfully got ready to leave.Nox finally spoke. "Hold on."The mere voice of Nox fueled the Sanderses' fury, and they swiveled around, their faces contorted with rage.George felt enraged at the si

The man smiled at Annie. "Hello, Miss Annie."Annie approached him. "Where's my father, Mr. Laws?"Ferguson Laws was the head steward for the Weeks family. He smiled. "He's inside, holding a memorial service.""For whom, Mr. Laws? Why did he leave his company unattended for days just to do this?"Ferguson smiled. "Do you really not know, Miss Annie?"Annie shook her head."Do you remember the news a few days ago? About how Lord Nox died in the Ocean of Death?"Annie paused for a moment. She said, "Of course. He alone destroyed the ambition of the invaders from the ten nations and made them sign a ceasefire. Everyone in Faeast knows of him.""Then, you should know that he has fallen in battle, despite his victory against the invaders," Ferguson continued.After a short pause, Annie realized who the memorial service was for. "So, you're saying the memorial service is for Lord Nox?""That is correct." Ferguson nodded with a smile. "You know it was all thanks to Lord Nox that our family ma

Annie wanted to go with them as well, but Alexander said, "Annie, you and everyone else stay here. I need to talk to our guest alone."Disgruntled, Annie grunted, but she glared at Nox. She thought, 'What's so special about him? Why is Dad giving him the VIP treatment?'Nox followed Alexander into his private study. The first thing Nox saw was the memorial tablet in the center of the study. 'In memory of Lord Nox.'Nox approached the tablet and stared at it for what felt like an eternity."Milord, I humbly greet you." Just like that, the richest man in Riverton knelt with a thud behind Nox.Nox did not turn around. Coolly, he asked, "You know who I am?""Of course. I have never seen you in the flesh, but I know that token. That is your symbol, milord. No one can possess that item but you," Alexander said carefully.A long silence later, Nox slowly turned around. "Stand.""Yes, milord." Alexander got back up on his feet. He couldn't hide his ecstasy, however, and he was tremblin

Ever since Queenie was taken back to the Sanders Residence, she had been locked up in her room. A woman's voice came from that room. "You're going to give me a heart attack someday, Queenie. Why did you do that? Why did you go on a vacation with a total stranger? And why did you take him to your place?"The voice belonged to Queenie's mother—Yvette Crystals."And who is that man? When did you two start to date?"Queenie couldn't take the barrage of questions anymore. "Mom, I've told you. I don't know him. We're not dating. He's just a stranger I fished out of the sea.""You're still lying to me even now?" Yvette was furious. With a heavy heart, she said, "Queenie, I raised you. You are not the kind of girl who'd lie to me. What happened to you?"Queenie smiled bitterly and shook her head in resignation."You just crossed the whole family, and your lover beat Silas up. What should we do now?""That was not my fault, Mom. Silas went too far," Queenie protested."He went too far?
