Lein, Celine, and the others arrived at the spacious hotel room. The room was almost like a penthouse with a spacious living room, luxurious sofas, and large windows facing the city view.Celine immediately looked at Lein, then turned to Sarah with a pleading expression."Sarah, can you give this man some clothes? Look at his clothes... they're very damaged."Sarah looked at Lein with a cold gaze, clearly unhappy. But because it was a direct request from Celine, she couldn't refuse."Fine," Sarah answered briefly, then walked toward the large closet in the corner of the room.She opened the closet and checked the list of available clothes. There were only white shirts and black pants—standard clothes provided by the hotel for guests.Sarah took them, then handed them to Lein with an unfriendly look."Here. The bathroom is over there," she said while pointing to the door on the side.Lein accepted those clothes with a brief nod. "Thank you."He entered the bathroom and closed the door.

Hearing James's accusation, Celine immediately replied in an annoyed tone."James, Lein isn't a person like that. He just happened to be there and saved me. He actually broke both their legs and arms. No one would do something that extreme just to get my attention!"Celine paused for a moment, then continued with a sharp gaze."Besides, how did you know I was almost raped by a group of thugs? Who told you? Sarah?!"James's face turned bright red. Veins protruded on his forehead. His hands clenched tightly until his knuckles turned white.Lein?!So Celine already knew this bastard's name?! They already knew each other?!And what was even more painful, no one would do something that extreme to get her attention?!Me! I'm that person!I'm willing to do anything for you, get your attention, even if it means killing!James took a deep breath, trying to hold back his overflowing anger. But his voice still came out in a high tone full of emotion."You don't need to know where I learned about

Lein realized what Celine was thinking. The woman's face in front of him was pale, her eyes full of worry and guilt.In a calm tone, Lein said, "He won't be able to hurt me. Don't worry."Hearing that, Celine quickly shook her head. Her expression became more panicked.James wasn't the same group of thugs that Lein had faced before. The Blackwood family was at a completely different level! They were very rich, very powerful, and very dangerous."Don't be too confident, Lein," Celine said in a trembling voice. "You don't know how big James and the Blackwood Family's actual influence is. With their influence, they can shake a city."Lein was silent for a moment, looking at Celine with a calm gaze.In his mind, he said in a flat tone.With my influence, I'm not only capable of shaking one city, but one continent.But Lein didn't say it on the surface. He just looked at Celine with an unchanged expression.Celine took a long breath, then continued in a serious tone."How about this. Work

Lein looked at those two bodyguards with a sharp gaze.As someone who had interrogated hundreds of people on battlefields, in secret rooms, in the darkest places in the world, Lein knew exactly the signs of someone lying or hiding something.And these two men in front of him showed it very clearly.When Lein accused them, there was a fraction of a second pause before they answered. A pause too long for the natural reaction of someone innocent. People who are truly innocent would immediately deny without thinking.But they thought first, composing an answer.Then from the way they spoke. Their tone was too loud, too defensive, like trying to convince not just others, but also themselves.Their eyes were also unfocused. They looked at Lein, but their gaze occasionally moved toward Sarah, seeking support, seeking a way out.And what was most obvious was their body language. When Lein walked closer, they stepped back. Not stepping back with reasonable defensive posture, but stepping back
Chapter 065
Those two bodyguards launched toward Lein with full anger, their fists ready to strike.But Lein didn't move. He just stood in his place, calm, like still water before a storm.Right before the first punch hit him, Lein moved.His movement was simple, efficient, without excessive gestures. He stepped to the side lightly, letting the first man's fist pass his face by only a few centimeters.At the same time, his hand moved like lightning.He caught the first man's wrist, then with one precise twisting motion, he twisted that man's arm in an unnatural direction.CRACK!The sound of a dislocating joint was heard loudly."ARGH!" the first man screamed in pain, his face instantly turning pale.But Lein wasn't finished.The second man had already arrived from the other side, his hand reaching toward Lein's neck.Lein released the first man, his body spinning smoothly, and in an instant he was already behind the second man.His hand caught that man's arm from behind, then with the same quick

Celine was silent for a moment, her face showing a thoughtful expression. Her eyes looked at Lein seriously, then after a while, she answered, "No, Lein, you can't go back. James might be planning something now. So it's better for you to stay here." Lein considered that. Indeed, James wasn't the type of man who would accept defeat just like that. With his pride crushed in front of Celine, he would surely do something. And if Lein went home now, he would leave Celine alone without protection. That wasn't a good choice. "Alright, no problem," Lein answered in a calm tone. Celine nodded, relieved with that answer. Then she turned to face Sarah who still stood beside with a worried face, "Now go back to your room, Sarah. You need rest." Sarah was silent for a moment, her eyes looking at Celine with a doubtful expression. Honestly, she wanted to remind Celine that tomorrow morning they had a photo shoot for a famous magazine. That schedule had been arranged for a long time and was

That headquarters stood majestically in the middle of a dense forest, hidden from the outside world's view.From the outside, this place looked like ancient ruins that had long been abandoned. But behind that illusion, there was a modern building complex surrounded by various invisible protective arrays.Those arrays weren't just ordinary cultivation formations. They combined ancient cultivation techniques with advanced technology, creating a defense system that was almost impossible to penetrate.Motion sensors, hidden cameras, and deadly traps were scattered throughout the area. Even Immortal Realm cultivators would have difficulty penetrating this defense without being detected.Inside that complex, buildings were made from a combination of natural stone and modern metal. Hidden LED lights provided sufficient lighting without being visible from outside. Advanced technological equipment was installed in every corner, from computers to encrypted communication devices.This was the he

Kyle quickly opened the back door, and James entered with a bright red face. His jaw hardened, his teeth grinding, his dislocated wrist still hanging limply at his side.As soon as the door closed, James hit the seat beside him with his left hand that could still move.BANG!"THAT BASTARD!" he shouted in a voice full of anger.Kyle sat in the front passenger seat, looking at James through the rearview mirror with a worried face. He had never seen James this angry before.James took a deep breath, trying to control his anger. But his anger was too great. His face was still red, his breath still racing.Then, in a low voice but full of pressure, James said, "Find out who he is."Kyle turned, looking at James seriously.James continued, his voice getting louder, "I want every piece of information about him, no matter how small! No details can be missed! His name, his family, his job, where he lives, who he's friends with, what he ate this morning—everything!"Kyle nodded firmly."As you

That morning, around eight o'clock, Celine, Lein, and Sarah had breakfast at the hotel restaurant.The atmosphere was calm. No heavy conversations. Just the soft sound of plates and spoons, occasionally the clinking of glasses.Sarah looked at Celine carefully. Celine's face looked more relaxed this morning, unlike last night which was tense and tired. Her expression was brighter, her smile more natural.Celine seemed to have truly recovered.Sarah breathed a sigh of relief, then gathered courage to speak."You didn't forget that we have a photo shoot this morning, right, Celine?"Celine turned, smiled thinly while putting down her spoon."Yes, I remember. Photo shoot for Vogue magazine, and also lunch with artists and investors. I'll shower after this and we'll leave."Hearing that answer, Sarah was very happy. Celine had truly returned to being the Celine she knew. Professional, controlled, ready to work.Sarah smiled widely, nodding enthusiastically."Alright, I'll prepare everythi

Three hours later, the photo shoot ended.Antoine was very satisfied with the results. He even praised Celine many times.Celine smiled friendly, said thank you, then said goodbye politely.Now, they had to go to the next event—lunch with several investors and celebrities at Le Jardin Restaurant. A networking event for promoting her latest film, Echoes of Tomorrow.Le Jardin Restaurant was located in the city center, a luxurious restaurant in classic European style known as a favorite place for business executives and celebrities to meet and network.The journey from Lumière Studio to Le Jardin took about fifteen minutes.They arrived around half past twelve.The restaurant looked magnificent from the outside—a two-story building with white stone facade, large colored glass panel windows, and a small garden in front of the entrance filled with red and white roses.At the entrance, a neatly uniformed waiter immediately greeted them with a professional smile."Good afternoon, Miss Morga
