Chapter 041 – The Palmers’ Scheme
*****The next day… at the Palmers' estate.At this moment, the servants and workers were moving about like ants whose nest had just been kicked apart.Sweat soaked their uniforms as they worked tirelessly to restore the estate to perfection.The extravagant decorations from the previous day were stripped away one after another, expensive ornaments carefully removed, banners taken down, carpets cleaned, and every visible trace of the engagement banquet erased.The entire estate was being polished until it gleamed once again, spotless and dignified.Meanwhile, inside the Matriarch’s main villa… a massive duplex that practically screamed authority, wealth, and power, the atmosphere was far from peaceful.The entire Palmer family sat gathered together in the luxurious living room. However, none of them appeared like members of a prominent family. They looked more like survivors of a disaster.Other than Robert, who appeared relatively composed, dark circles could be seen beneath almost e
Chapter 042 – The Palmers’ Scheme II
*****Hearing what Maggie had just perfectly explained, both Oakley and Oliver instantly paused. Their anger dimmed slightly as they processed her words, their brows knitting together in thought.Even the Matriarch fell silent.For a few seconds, nobody spoke.The old woman's fingers tapped lightly against the armrest of her chair as she carefully considered Maggie's reasoning.The more she thought about it, however, the more sense it seemed to make.Mason Johnson was not an ordinary young man. Men like him possessed monstrous pride.Last night's humiliation had happened publicly, before countless influential families. Such people rarely forgot humiliation, and they certainly didn't forgive it quickly.Finally, she nodded.“That makes sense,” she admitted slowly. “So, what do you suggest we do now?”The moment the question left her mouth, Maggie subtly straightened in her seat. It was almost as though she had been waiting for that exact question.“I think it's still best we go there o
Chapter 043 – Kelly’s Irritation
*****At the same time, Wellington Manor… inside Kelly’s small duplex.Completely unaware that her family was currently plotting behind her back, digging into Nicholas’s background so they could find a way to force him to annul their marriage, Kelly stood before him.She was already dressed for work, wearing a perfectly tailored cream blazer and matching trousers that projected authority, competence, and executive presence.Every line of her outfit seemed meticulously arranged, making her appear like a woman born to stand at the top of the corporate pyramid. Combined with her naturally cold beauty and unreadable expression, she looked less like a person and more like an untouchable force.Her gaze remained fixed on Nicholas.And the contrast between them was almost comical.While she looked sharp, disciplined, and intimidating, Nicholas, on the other hand, still stood there in his pajamas, looking as though he had only recently crawled out of bed after losing an argument with sleep it
Chapter 044 – Departing Wellington Manor
*****Once back inside his room, Nicholas’s eyes immediately fell on the bed.The blanket remained neatly made, while the pillow showed no signs of use, making it obvious that nobody had slept there the entire night.“Should I try catching some sleep or cultivate more?” He suddenly mumbled thoughtfully to himself, his gaze lingering on the bed.Eventually, however, he released a long breath and shook his head. "Not the slightest bit of my injuries recovered, even after cultivating the entire night without getting a wink of sleep. What difference would a little more cultivation make?"A bitter smile tugged at his lips.Yet despite saying that, Nicholas still lowered himself into a lotus position on the floor, crossed his legs, and then slowly shut his eyes.Almost immediately, the already quiet room seemed to sink into an even deeper silence.His breathing changed, becoming slow, steady, and deliberate, as though each breath followed a precise rhythm.As it did, the air around him seem
Chapter 045 – The Hunter’s Territory
*****The drive took about two nonstop hours, so long that Nicholas couldn’t stop himself from frowning in confusion and dissatisfaction.The taxi kept rolling and rolling. Buildings gradually thinned, traffic faded, and the city’s usual noise gave way to long stretches of road and silence until even Nicholas, who was usually lazy, began to suspect something was off.‘Are we traveling now or what?’ he wondered inwardly, his brows knitting together.But outwardly, he said nothing.He remained sprawled in the back seat with the air of a man who had been kidnapped too politely to complain.At some point, the monotonous hum of the engine and the endless road wore down even his mild curiosity, and he ended up dozing off three separate times, each nap short and broken by potholes, turns, or passing vehicles' constant horns.By the time the cab finally began slowing near the city’s outskirts, Nicholas had already reached the level of tired annoyance where even blinking felt like unnecessary
Chapter 046 – The Hunter’s Territory II
*****The guard stared straight into Nicholas’s eyes, his gaze cold and razor-sharp, making it obvious that he wasn’t there for play and that he was prepared to strike at any given second if Nicholas made even the slightest wrong move.There was no trace of hesitation in the man’s posture or softness in his expression.He stood there like a loaded weapon with a pulse… still and restrained.Nicholas, however, merely shifted his gaze and glanced at the other guards, all of whose attention had now locked onto him as well.Their hands were already resting on their weapons, their fingers loose but ready, and their stances subtle yet tense, as though they needed only one signal to descend on him.Seeing this, Nicholas smiled again, looking completely unbothered, almost amused by the pressure closing around him. If anything, the sight seemed to entertain him more than intimidate him.“I have an appointment with Jason Hunter,” he said casually, and… silence descended.Every single guard pause
Chapter 047 – The Captain’s Judgement
*****The captain took in Nicholas’s plain clothing, relaxed posture, and overall unremarkable appearance, and with each passing second, the sycophantic smile that had just formed on his face withered away completely.In its place came a frown, then disgust, and finally a cold, dismissive contempt, the kind reserved for something he considered unworthy of even notice.“Are you the so-called guest?” he asked at last, the revulsion in his eyes and voice naked to everyone present.However, he didn’t wait for Nicholas to answer. He behaved as though Nicholas were too low to speak directly to him.So, instead, he turned back to the guard.“Is he the visitor you claimed you were attending to?” he demanded, sounding so stupefied and offended that it was as though the guard had dragged a stray beggar to the gate and announced him as royalty.Hearing that, a look of helplessness and frustration flickered across the guard’s face. ‘Of course he is! Are you that blind?’ he was sorely tempted to a
Chapter 048 – “Bastard! What the Hell Do You Think You’re Doing?!”
*****With tight, jerky movements, the guard pulled out a bunch of keys and unlocked the barrier.At the same time, none of the other guards spoke.For a few seconds, they all stood there pretending the matter had nothing to do with them… as though staying silent might spare them from becoming the next target of Captain Johnson’s temper.Then…“Um…” one guard finally muttered, his voice hesitant, almost swallowed by the air.Every head turned toward him all at once, making him tense slightly.“What?!” Captain Johnson barked, startling him so badly the man nearly bit his own tongue.“I…” the guard hesitated again, clearly regretting opening his mouth in the first place.But after swallowing hard, he forced the words out. “The probability may be nonexistent, Captain Johnson, sir, but I believe we should still contact Master Jason’s villa,” he said carefully, choosing each word as though stepping across a field of landmines. “Just to confirm.”Silence crashed down again.Captain Johnson
Chapter 049 – Captain Johnson’s Abrupt Transformation
*****Still at the Hunters’ main entrance.For one long second after that furious roar exploded through the air, neither the captain, the guard on the verge of laying hands on Nicholas, nor the rest of the men stationed at the gate moved a single inch.They just stood there, frozen stiff, all of them staring in the direction the voice had come from as if their necks had been locked in place.Yet it wasn’t because they had already seen the speaker.No. The voice had come from farther down the road, still some distance away.What truly rooted them to the ground was something else entirely.At this moment, a vehicle was hurtling straight toward the main entrance at a terrifying speed, barreling over the road like a beast that had broken free of its chains.It was as though the driver had death itself chasing behind him with a butcher’s knife. And that earlier roar had come from inside that very vehicle.It was also the sight of that same vehicle that rendered them speechless, because…“I
Chapter 050 – “It… It Was You In The Servant Car?”
*****For a second that felt like an eternity after they saw Jason, nobody could react.They just gawked at him, all of them appearing as though the world itself had slammed to a stop.Then… Captain Johnson returned to his senses.Or rather, it was as though the overbearing, self-important creature that possessed him until now had suddenly fled.His domineering expression shattered on the spot… the murderous arrogance vanished, and the condescending posture disappeared.Even the sneer that had been hanging around his mouth died so swiftly it was almost pitiful.In the blink of an eye, the same man who had been barking orders like the emperor of the universe folded into himself like wet paper.His shoulders dropped to the ground, his face drained of blood, and his eyes, which had been burning with superiority moments ago, now trembled with naked fear.“Ma… Master Jason,” he called out, his voice quivering so badly the words nearly tripped over each other.He subconsciously bowed his he
