Back at the Wang residence, a long time had passed and Yvonne began to get anxious and impatient. Master Fu ought to be back now. “Mother, Master Gu has been gone for a long time now. Shouldn’t he be back yet?” Cassian asked, holding an ice pack to his neck. “Hmph, don’t you know how capable Master Fu is? He definitely on the way already. Just you wait, your mom will definitely get justice for you.” Cassian smiled but before he could speak, his phone rang. “Mr. Fang, we have bad news. Master Fu’s limbs have been broken and he has sustained severe injuries!” “What…?!” Cassian sprang up from his seat in shock, the ice bag in his hand fell to the ground. George and Yvonne stared at him, confused. “I was trailing Riven Wei just as you had requested and I saw the whole thing. Master Fu is lying beside me almost lifeless. Should I take him to the hospital or bring him back to you?” “Bring him back here immediately!” Cassian thundered. Taking Master Fu to the hospital was r

“MOTHER!” Cassian screamed, staring at Fu’s lifeless body, new found fear washed over him in an instant. “Breathe a word of this to the other members of the Fang family and you will end up like this,” Yvonne said to him without batting an eyelid. Cassian gulped and nodded. He knew his mother was just as ruthless as his father, for her to kill her bodyguard and a member of the Black Veil without caring about the consequences, she definitely wasn’t bluffing about killing him too. George had grown pale on the side. He was trembling slightly. “Oh, Mr Wang, I will have to trouble you and your family to take care of this for me,” Yvonne said with a smooth smile as she kept her gun back into the purse. “You see, I believe the Fang family will not be able to help in this matter so with Fu’s death, the Black Veil will be involved. I hope you know what I mean?” George nodded slowly, understanding the look in her eyes. She wanted to frame Riven up with this incident. But he too knew abo

1pm,Aurora Corporation.Odessa entered into the front sit of Riven’s car after closing much earlier than usual. Her mood was incredibly bright. She showed him a wedding invite.“My cousin is getting married soon and we have been invited,” she chimed.Riven skimmed through the invite. It turns out the cousin who was getting married was from Odessa’s mother’s family, the Liu family. He wondered why he had never heard about them up until now. “The wedding is tomorrow,” Riven commented, staring at the date and venue.It was a five hour journey from Kairen City.“Yes. Once we get home, we have to pack up quickly and leave so we can arrive there early. This is so great. You can finally meet my mother’s family,” Odessa responded with a smile.Riven’s lips quirked in a little smile. “But why haven’t I heard anything about them till now?”Odessa’s smile stiffened. “From the moment my mother got married to my father despite her family’s warnings, they cut her off because they wanted her to g

Henry had long known of Riven’s family being one of the sworn families but they had already been destroyed and he was only borrowing the power of the Zhao family to act around.He was nothing in the eyes of Henry Bo whose family was highly respected in North City.Assuming Riven was from one of the sworn families, he wouldn’t have any interest in his wife but from his own standing point, such a freeloader like Riven doesn’t deserve a beautiful woman like Odessa.Julia could see how offended Henry was and immediately tried to pacify him.“Don’t be offended, Henry. My cousin probably doesn’t know any better. Trust me my grandparents will never accept him.”“Hmph, alright then.”At this moment, the Liu family were fawning over Odessa.“Oh my goodness, Odessa, it’s been years and you have grown into a beautiful woman.”“Yes. She even looks so much like her mother. What a beauty!”“I heard you have become a CEO now. How wonderful! Don’t forget us when you start getting benefits after all,

The entire hall went silent.“Forget it, Odessa. I will leave. You just stay here,” Riven said softly.“Leave?” Odessa frowned. She was standing up for him and now he wanted to chicken out by leaving alone? “If you leave, I’m leaving with you.”Raymond heard Odessa’s words clearly and his face twisted in misery.“Odessa, you are my granddaughter and I’ve watched you since you were young. Even if our family have grown apart for a few years, we are trying to make amends. But now… you want to leave. Meaning if you do, you are severing all ties with us, right? This isn’t fair. I have lost my daughter and now I’m going to lose my granddaughter!”All of a sudden, his body swayed back and forth while he took in hurried breaths.“Father!”“Grandfather!”The Lius immediately rushed to his side while Odessa and Riven looked on speechlessly.Her face turned red as she watched them try to stablize Raymond. She had only wanted to leave with Riven since they didn’t respect him as her husband but he
