Kevin was reaching for more food, but his hand stopped halfway to his plate.It wasn’t because Cecilia stopped him.It was because he saw her parents entering the hall.He looked at Cecilia. She seemed surprised as well. So, she didn’t call them. Kevin was relieved inside.Cecilia stood from Kevin’s lap at once. “Mom? Dad? What are you doing here?”“We just wanted to see you,” Brielle looked at the beautifully prepared table, then at Kevin, then finally at Cecilia. "You didn’t call us for such a beautiful dinner?"“Why should I?” Cecilia calmly retorted. “I’m not your daughter anymore. I’m Kevin’s wife, and I have left the O’Brian mansion.”Brielle forced out a smile and looked at her husband.Orland stepped forward. “Cecilia, our luck has been terrible lately. The banks want to take the O’Brian mansion back. If you don’t pay them at least the interest money, then they will auction the mansion. It’s the mansion your grandfather built. Don’t let it fall into a stranger’s hands.”Cecili

Kevin expected a few days of quietness after defeating Jack.But there was a rumor of an attempt for an hostile acquisition of Serenity from a Chinese billionaire.At the same time, an attempt was made to ruin Cecilia’s image by showing pictures of her meeting with different males. Some news channels talked about it, saying, “Cecilia Kingsley might not be as loyal as she seems. How can the wife of a heroic man be like this?”Within one day, the online media and public were turned against Cecilia. She even received death threat emails, demanding that she divorced her husband.“This is ridiculous,” Cecilia was utterly enraged by this whole thing. “Which bastard is behind this? Is it those dangerous people Kevin talked about? Is there nothing I can do?”While she called some people and asked for clues and acquired more information, she saw another video that shocked her.“I have dated Cecilia about a year back,” a young billionaire spoke in a fashion show, with his arms wrapped around th

The truck bulldozed its way through the glass wall as though it was nothing but a paper wall.It destroyed multiple tables and went on to crash into the manager’s stone desk.All the wine bottles displayed on the shelves also fell from the impact.The other customers sitting at nearby tables got up and ran away.The driver jumped out of the trunk, took a few seconds to regain control over his senses, then started looking around.“Are you looking for me?” a voice washed his back.The driver turned around and swiftly thrust a knife.Kevin caught the knife and twisted that man’s arm and broke it near the elbow, then with another strike, he dislodged the shoulder bone.The driver cried in horror.Cecilia and a few other people got up from the floor. The tables, chairs, the plates and every object around was damaged.But somehow, Cecilia did not suffer a single scratch.Not just her, but not a single person suffered any injuries.Cecilia did not understand how Kevin did it. It all happened

In the southern part of the city.There was a four-floored building that was quieter than every other building in the block.In a day’s time, only a handful of people entered it, but everything in and out looked clean and neat.Right now, an old man with the help of a walking stick entered the building. He was in his eighties and old enough that he couldn’t even stand straight.He sat on the chair, took a few breaths to calm his heart, then looked at the black man standing behind the desk.Neither of them spoke.Seconds passed, and the old man finally said, “I’m here for ordering a mission.”“Pardon?” the black man said. “What mission? I don’t understand what you’re talking about, sir?”“Ah, right…” the old man took out a silver coin and placed it on the table.It had the symbol of a spear engraved on it.The black man took it and stored it away. “Please tell me about yourself, and what you need us for, sir.”The door closed.“I have been married for over fifty years,” the old man sai

“Wait, wait, don’t kill me!” the boss quickly blurted in fear.Kevin stopped throwing his punch.“I’ll give you anything you want. Money, women, and even my wife,” the boss said. “Just spare my life.”“Even your wife?” Kevin frowned. “What kind of a man do you think I am?”“I-I know that you’re called a hero,” the boss said. “But everyone has a hidden weakness or two, right? Besides, my wife is a piece of art. I married her for her looks, but after seven years of fucking the same thing, the testosterone is bound to decrease in the bedroom, which makes me less attractive to her. She thinks I’m just a manager of some simple store, so she doesn’t show me much respect.“If a man is not in a position where other women are showing interest in him, his woman will also lose some interest in him. We men must remain obviously attractive to other women but never give in to that. It's a weird sadistic game, but my wife likes to play it, alright. Like I said, she’s a piece of art. Good looking and
