Lorenzo snarled at Zarus, who then pretended he couldn’t see that Lorenzo was angry as he continued talking. “So, while I’m here to help, I wouldn’t bank on my help if I were you.” Zarus added.”Well, unless for all of your big talks and the stupid show-offs, you’re nothing but weak pricks.” He added, and Kai sighed again, tired of how things were going.“Zarus—”“You know, I really wouldn’t interfere because trust me, I don’t care for strategic meetings or whatever.” Shadow cut in before Kai could finish talking. “But you’ve been nothing but disrespectful since you showed up at our door.” He scoffed.“And seeing as you would have nowhere else to go because, I’m guessing, if you don’t complete the mission your master entrusted you with then he wouldn’t let you go back home.” Shadow continued and everywhere fell silent.Shadow never really talked, and even though he was starting to contribute in meetings, this was still the most he had said to a stranger in one day considering the fact

Lorenzo and Atticus could only watch as the fight between Zarus and Kai grew even more intense, the floor looked as though it was going to cave in, but it didn’t, and both Kai and Zarus looked like they were having fun.“Wow. You really are a completely different person if you’re fighting with some enthusiasm.” Kai said amidst the clanging of swords that had suddenly appeared in both their hands.Zarus didn’t say anything as he charged at Kai, who side stepped and tried to knock the sword right out of Zarus’ hands, but Zarus was quicker and he had Kai on the floor with his chest pressed to the ground.“And you don’t look like you’ve gotten any stronger.” Zarus said, and while Kai was breathing heavily, Zarus’ heart rate was normal, earning a scowl from Lorenzo.Zarus extended his hand towards Kai who took it as Zarus pulled him up. There was a little part of him that felt frustrated, the part that grew stronger because of the people that he wanted to defeat.But, during the course of

Gina couldn’t help but watch as Kai and Catherine walked away, she knew that Catherine had seen her even though Catherine had acted as though she hadn’t seen her.“Sweetheart?” Her father’s voice jolted her out of her thoughts and it wasn’t until then that she recalled that she had come to this event with her father.She knew what she expected because after all, she knew that Catherine had a close knit relationship with the Grant family, what she didn’t expect was that Catherine was going to bring a wretched church mouse like Kai to the event.Something in her stomach twisted, it had been there since she set her eyes on Kai. There was a really huge part of her that regretted leaving him for Jake, and she thought that if she had known that he was eventually going to be favored by Catherine and possibly the Grant family, she wouldn’t have left.Gina had left him, and now she had to deal with the consequences of her actions. Jake wasn’t as rich as he was when they first met, and each pas

Gina rolled her eyes, she hadn’t explicitly told them that she would be attending, but since she’s with her father then they probably wouldn’t ask her that many questions. Also, the fact that they were both in the humiliating regular seats would mean that the Grant family had probably intentionally invited them over only to humiliate them. “You’re here.” Gina said with a fake excitement as she got out of her seat and hurried to hug Jake, kissing him even though the gesture was twisting inside her stomach like a knife. She never should have left Kai for him, but could she blame herself? She thought that he was going to be the next heir to the Benson family fortune but it turned out that the Benson family doesn’t have any fortune left. And Kai had upgraded since she left him and they sent him out of the Benson family house, there was a hint of resentment for the Benson sisters twisting inside Gina’s stomach right now. If they hadn’t sent him out and banished him from the Benson fam
