“Huh?”Alice frowned, clenching her jaw. “What do you want? Do you want your cousin to roll on the floor apologizing to your husband nefore you let her go?”“Everyone here heard you slander me and I have just pressed charges for that,” Odessa said indifferently. “If she has apologized to Riven, that has nothing to do with what you did.”Riven stared at Odessa with pride in his eyes. She was acting very differently. She was cool, calm and collected and even had measures put in place to handle this situation.This showed that she had matured greatly and he was happy to see that. Seeing the emotionless gaze in Odessa’s eyes, as well as the lawyer and police escorts, Alice began to weigh the pros and cons. If she goes to prison and ends up getting charged in her court, her husband wouldn’t even care. She and her daughter will be locked up for a very long time while he enjoys with his mistress.Instead of getting embarrassed and losing everything, she thought it would be better to swallo

Diana stared at Odessa, bewildered. Deep down, she had to accept that she had acted formidable just now. Samuel walked towards Odessa and spoke softly, “Odessa, uh, I will have a good chat with you tonight so we can resolve everything. Is that okay?”He was scared that she might also reveal that he had borrowed over five hundred thousand dollars from her under the pretext of planning Josh’s wedding and send him to jail. Odessa looked at her uncle and nodded. “Okay.”It was Josh’s big day today and she was here to celebrate and congratulate him, not ruin it.At that moment, an Audi A8 pulled up at the entrance of the hotel. A middle aged man in his late forties stepped out of the car and raised his hand to tighten his tie with a look of displeasure on his face.“Hubby, you are here!” A shrill voice of surprise suddenly sounded.It was Alice who had scurried out of the hotel in shame a few minutes ago. She walked towards the man with a look of delight.She had initially thought her hu

Odessa exclaimed resolutely to the surprise of everyone present.“Go ahead and sue me if you want! I would really love for you to sue me but trust me the result will not turn out the way you think!”“You!” David was so furious that he almost vomited blood.He was from a top family in North city who everyone was trying so hard to suck up to but here he was being reprimanded by a girl old enough to be his daughter!Is she possessed? How dare she talk to me in that tone!Riven was standing beside Odessa and staring coldly at David, who was so furious that his lips almost twisted.Odessa had made manage to render him speechless than he couldn’t even demand an explanation from Riven anymore.Diana was incredibly surprised by the turn out of events. She was expecting David to deal terribly with Odessa and if possible use his resources to destroy Odessa’s company out of spite but he wasn’t doing any of that instead his eyes showed hidden fear.But before David could speak, a loud commotion I

Odessa frowned. She knew why Diana was here. When she had questioned Riven privately about him inviting Orion or not, she had insulted them both.Instead of responding, she ignored her and sipped from her wine. The conversation between the three continued while they ignored Diana and others who were trying to get Orion’s attention.Diana went red with embarrassment, she stomped her foot and walked away. “Why are you here?” Riven asked.Orion immediately stood up and sat close to Riven. “The Black Veil are going to be here soon. And they are coming for you.”“We have been expecting them for a while now after the attack at Mori’s residence. The seal is safe and not with me presently so why would they come attack me here?” “Well, you remember the man who you had fought with at the bridge?”Riven nodded. He remembered Master Fu who had been sent by the Fang family to harm him and Odessa.“He’s dead,” Orion leaned closer and whispered. “He is one of the elders in the Black Veil and all e

“Riven is innocent,” Orion responded simply. “Find out the murderer yourself.”“Innocent or not, he has something we want,” Mingye sneered. With the snap of his fingers, the other fighters shot into the air, their eyes fixed on Riven.The entire venue exploded. The guests immediately screamed and began to run out of the venue. Odessa stood frozen, wide eyed. Scenarios like this only exist in movies and fiction books. Riven pulled her closer to him, one hand around her waist. “Stay close so I can protect you,” he whispered to her and she hurriedly nodded.Orion, on the other hand, had taken his stance.“Ten of you for just one man?” He cranked his neck. “You should have brought twenty.”Two of them came at him at the same time. Orion caught one’s fist mid air and used his body to powerfully slam into the second. BANG!With a loud, brutal sound, the second stumbled backwards and his back slammed hard into a nearby table.He coughed out blood and slid down to the floor. Before the
