All Chapters of The Tenth Monarch: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Could Mr. Zarkonnen really afford to mess with a man like that?Even if they had the backing of Lord Cloudrider of the Celestial Throne, the issue was his constant absence. Moreover, Ted York was a complete enigma—Wolfie wouldn't be surprised even if he claimed now that he was acquainted with Lord Cloudrider.In fact, a thought had just occurred to him, one he couldn't seem to dismiss.But in that case, why did Ted agree to Mr. Zarkonnen's request? What on earth was he planning?As Wolfie thought about it, he shuddered, his legs buckled, and he dropped to his knees before Ted, looking despondent and pleading, "Mr. York, I apologize for my ignorance in not seeing who you are from the start! I've insulted you more than once, and I shall accept my punishment. I won't complain even if you demand my death… But please, spare Mr. Zarkonnen!"There was no mistaking it—Wolfie was on his knees, begging for mercy on Mr. Zarkonnen's behalf when Ted hadn't said a word.It was utterly illogi

Pantera pursed his lips—what was wrong with Theodore the Magnificent? And it was certainly much better than 'Pants'!However, there was no helping it since Ted was the boss, and even if Pantera was himself a big deal to everyone else, he was still just an obedient henchman to Ted, a fact he would never dare argue.Ted chuckled just then. "Relax—no need to get so nervous, Wolfie. Just remember what I told you, and proceed as you should. It won't affect me if you spill the beans, but I'm going to be really upset. And if I'm upset, everything you begged for earlier won't count. Understood?""Remember the story I told you earlier? So cherish what you have and don't disappoint me."Regardless of whether Ted's words held weight, they were certainly preferable to no assurances.Wolfie was immediately profoundly grateful towards Ted, and he suddenly saw him in a different light.All the animosity and resentment Wolfie had previously harbored suddenly turned into boundless admiration for

Would anyone believe it even if they were told? Naturally, there was a chance that it was true, but how important did the family have to be to actually disrespect someone like Pantera?And while Pantera knew nothing about Ted's personal life, Wolfie did all too well.The man wasn't just married—he was divorced, and to add insult to injury, he was labeled a loser and the one who got dumped.To Wolfie, it still felt like a dream.On top of that, he was interested to see how Luna Lambert would react upon discovering this. After all, the ex-husband whom she had deemed a loser turned out to be the former heir of the Quill family, a prominent guest of the White family, Viper Scorch's friend, and now, Pantera Medlar's esteemed boss.Still, it would most likely feel like a lottery winner who lost their ticket—they'd be wishing they were dead.On the other hand, Pantera's question left Ted in silence.Should he lie? No, that was unnecessary.And he wasn't afraid of embarrassing hims

Luna continued, "Moran Group has a strong influence in Easton, the family is not to be underestimated. Most importantly, they are a client we got with our own efforts, and that makes them our contact. If we want respect, we need to accomplish something on our own instead of relying constantly on others' connections."Josie nodded quietly, though she appeared hesitant. "Do we really have to? He's nothing good, and he was already lusting after you the first time. It'd be dangerous if we went straight into his turf."Leslie Moran's entire appearance was inherently sleazy—fiftyish, balding, and fat-bellied—but the man was somehow even sleazier than he looked.The prior breakdown of negotiations stemmed from Leslie's solicitation of sexual favors, including engaging in overtly frisky and vulgar conduct at the table.Just remembering it left Josie sick, as she had been molested herself. While Luna had the White family's protection, Leslie didn't know that, revealing his true nature.H

Ted York, the former Quill family heir, also known as Theodore the Magnificent, King of the Celestial Throne, the Forsaken Emperor whose name shook the world, and the Tenth Monarch whose existence left the world breathless, was divorced? And dumped?Was that even remotely possible? The woman had to be crazy to do that.Beyond others, the countless women who admired Ted York would've all gone crazy for him.Even Wolfie, who had been silent as he stood nearby, could see that Pantera was skeptical.Pantera aside, he himself was left to wonder.He naturally knew about Ted's divorce but didn't have all the details. While he thought nothing of it before, having been around Ted and seeing the things happening around him left him questioning if Luna Lambert was really worthy of Ted.Finding a man like Ted was nothing less than a miracle against all odds, yet Luna dumped him, just like that?She had to be deranged…Nonetheless, Ted, smiling, asked quietly, "When have I ever joked about
