The entire bar fell silent, with everyone staring blankly at the lean person holding a hand that was twice the size of his own. No one could react for a moment, but eventually, the eyes of the Lion King, whose hand Xavier was holding, darkened with wrath. “Brat! Weren’t you the one I warned earlier to mind your business?” He snapped, his voice brimming with unhidden killing intent. Xavier, however, wasn’t bothered. Instead, continued maintaining his composed demeanor. “This lady here does not want to follow you, why are you forcing her?” He inquired calmly making everyone instant exchange stunned gazes. “This—this fool!” The bartender, whose gaze hadn’t left Xavier since the beginning scoffed with frustration and then hurriedly left what she was doing to rush over. “Lion King, hahahah. Please don’t mind this friend of mine. He appears to be too drunk to know what he was doing,” she stated with a smile, tearing Xavier’s hand away from the lion king. The Lion King quickly cast a glance at the bartender and growled but then hesitated before snorting. “I will let him go on your account then,” he said unhappily before sparing Xavier a dangerous glare and then ignoring him, casting his unhidden hungry-filled gaze back at the terrified beauty. “You’ve caused enough scene here already, let’s get going now,” he said darkly and threateningly before looking at his brother. “Let’s pick her up,” he said and the first lion king nodded his head, scaring Grace to the core. Although she was completely drunk and her mind was no longer functioning properly, she instinctively shrank back when she realized what the two were planning, her heart pounding fiercely with fear. Grace had heard many times from news about something like this happening, but she had never expected to encounter it the first time she decided to run away from her comfort zone and drown in her sorrow. She looked around for help but saw none. Instead, a few people watched her with pity, while the majority laughed, cheered on the Lion King, and praised the spectacle as a display of beauty. Just as Grace thought she was doomed, however, the composed voice she had heard earlier, which she thought was that of a savior sounded again. “Did I tell you that you can go with her?” The entire bar became eerie silent again, but it was soon broken and before long hushed voices filled the entire bar. “Is this guy a fool or what?” “Instead of being grateful for the Lion King’s forgiveness, he still chose to push your luck?” “Given his weak physique, wasn't he even supposed to keep a low profile instead of provoking people who could end his with a single snap!” Everyone mumbled and even the bartender, who had earlier pleaded on behalf of Xavier was stunned for a while before she sighed helplessly. She looked back to the Lion King and wanted to beg them again, but before she could open her mouth, they had already addressed her. “I listened to you earlier because of my respect and appreciation, but please, don’t try your luck too much,” they said in unison, their voices laced with an unmistakable menace. The Bartender immediately sighed upon hearing them and then looked at Xavier helplessly. Eventually, she shook her head and glanced back at the Two Lion Kings. “Please, for my sake, don’t give him a life-threatening injury.” “That, we can do,” the two responded and looked back coldly at Xavier. “Since you hate minding your goddamned business so much, get your ass over here and move this b!tch to our room for us!” The second King, whose hand Xavier had earlier held growled and the bar became silent again with everyone staring at Xavier, wondering what he would do. Contrary to their thoughts, however, Xavier, who had been calm all along did nothing. He just continued standing and watching lazily, acting as though he didn't feel the alarming intent closing in on him. “Bastard! Are you deaf?!” The voice of the second Lion King boomed, sending the hearts of the hearers banging against their chests, but still, Xavier did not react. This finally infuriated the two Lion Kings to the extent that they felt like killing someone. “Please forgive me,” the second Lion King said coldly to the bartender, then not waiting for a response stormed toward Xavier. “What I hate the most is people interfering in my affairs, offending me, and disrespecting my order. For daring to do all those, I’m going to castrate you,” he said coldly, then not waiting for any reaction, delivered a powerful kick to Xavier’s crotch. As soon as everyone saw this, their hearts skipped a beat, following which, their entire body went cold. They sighed deeply, suddenly feeling strong pity for Xavier. “He could have minded your business but unfortunately chose not to..” “This made me recall the last person who offended the Two Lion Kings. Hadn't he become a past today, yet, another little guy will join.” “What a stupid hero. Wouldn’t he live the rest of your life in pain and regret now, knowing he could have easily refused to help the needy,” the crowd sighed one after the other. Even Grace couldn’t help but be scared to death, watching what was going to happen. She opened her mouth, wanting to plead for mercy for Xavier, knowing she would never forgive herself if Xavier ended up getting hurt because of her. “Plea-“ she began to cry out when without any warning, her jaw dropped and her eyes constricted sharply. It wasn’t only hers, but literally everyone in the bar. If Xavier was like a thin pole, the Lion King attacking him would be a small mountain—muscular and imposing. Yet, at this moment, Xavier was casually holding his leg in his hand. That’s right and just then, a calm and composed voice filled with disbelief sounded. “You will castrate me just because I don’t want you to commit a wicked deed?”Latest Chapter
Chapter 885 – Susan’s Shock II
*****“He’s fine, Mother,” Xavier quickly reassured his mother, his tone exasperated but patient. “He just fainted. He only needs a few hours of rest, and he will wake up. That’s all.”He spoke with a casual calmness, sounding as though it wasn’t a big deal, as though carrying an unconscious man to his home, to meet his parents, was something perfectly ordinary.But as soon as Susan heard her, however, her temper, which had been struggling to stay contained, finally erupted again.“Don’t say that again!” she snapped, her voice trembling with both fury and anxiety, her sharp tone slicing through the tension like a blade.Yes, she had been completely caught off guard by the realization that the couple who had opened the luxurious mansion were Xavier’s parents, but even then…Her eyes flashed as she glared at him, stepping forward. “It isn’t your place to say his condition!”The force of her words startled the air still, and in the following second;Laura, “_”David, “_”The co
Chapter 884 – Susan’s Shock
*****Meanwhile, Susan, hearing the couple call Xavier Son, and Xavier, in turn, address the woman as his mother, stood frozen in place at this moment, unable to react for a moment, then finally...Her jaw dropped to the ground, her heart skipping a beat in her chest‘Son?’ Mother?’ Her mind stuttered, her breath hitching.Before she even knew it, Susan swallowed hard, unable to believe her ears.‘Did… did they just address themselves as that?’For a split second, the world around her seemed to blur, her mouth further opening, seemingly unable to make sense of anything again.But before she could even begin to process it, Xavier stopped in his tracks as Laura, still half in shock, raised her trembling hand.“Son, what’s going on here?” she demanded, her tone heavily laced with both confusion and fear, completely ignoring her son’s question as though she had never heard it.Her eyes darted to the unconscious man in Xavier’s arms. “Who is that you’re carrying? He doesn’t look g
Chapter 883 – Susan’s Worry II
*****Susan was incredibly anxious right now.The problem she and her family were already struggling to accept was still there, and now, before they could even come to terms with it, they were already stepping into something far worse… something that might destroy them once and for all.Susan’s heart began to race frantically in her chest, becoming even more anxious than before.Then, finally, she couldn’t keep her silence anymore and opened her mouth, ready to ask Xavier and her daughter for clarification.But just at that moment, before any sound could even leave her mouth… a sudden, sharp click echoed.In the following second, her breath hitched, her entire body stiffening.And just like that… amidst her frantically pounding heart and trembling, terrified soul, the massive door creaked open, slow and heavy, revealing two silhouettes bathed by the golden light of the morning rising sun.A man and a woman.They both looked frail… their faces lined, and their shoulders slight
Chapter 882 – Susan’s Worry
*****At this moment, standing before the towering entrance of Villa Number One… a door so massive and opulent that it looked as though it were made for gods or giants, radiating both power and wealth that didn’t just intimidate but humbled anyone who dared to approach... four figures stood.At the front stood Xavier, appearing calm and composed as he carried the unconscious Williams in his arms, whose blood had dried against his shirt, its dark stains standing out like a grim reminder of what had led them here.To his right stood Grace, her face devoid of any readable emotion.At this moment, her beauty seemed to have been sculpted from ice, appearing stoic, unyielding, and silent… the perfect picture of the Ice Goddess known to the world.It was not the kind of stillness born of peace or indifference, but of someone who had been hurt so much to the extent that she had stopped believing in the world.And then finally, on Xavier’s other side, stood Susan, Grace’s mother.Unlike
Chapter 881 – The Loving and Understanding Couple II
*****DingThe sudden chime of the doorbell sliced through the air, startling both of them so badly that they jerked like guilty teenagers caught sneaking out.Laura, without even the slightest hint of hesitation, leaped out of David’s embrace as if the hug had burned her.And David, blinking in disbelief, first shot a dark look toward the door, acting as though it had personally offended him… then he turned back to his wife, who now looked like a child caught red-handed with her hand in the cookie jar.“Come on, wife,” he groaned, throwing his arms up. “We’ve already been married for more than thirty years, yet you still act like some shy schoolgirl caught making out behind the classroom. Who exactly are you embarrassed for, the furniture?”Laura, “_”She stared at him blankly and with an unreadable expression for a moment, then finally… she stuck out her tongue like a defiant teenager.“That must be our son!” she declared suddenly, her voice bright, cheerful, and full of unc
Chapter 880 – The Loving and Understanding Couple
*****Before Xavier got convicted to prison, Laura had never been this… fragile about him.Back then, she was a woman of unshakable composure… strong, patient, and the kind of person who could go days without seeing her son and feel nothing more than mild curiosity and concern.He was busy with his company, and she trusted him completely. If he didn’t call, she would simply assume he was buried in work.It was normal back then, predictable and safe.But that was before prison.Ever since he came back, that fracture had never really healed.Every time Xavier left the house, her chest would tighten as if someone were slowly wringing the air out of her lungs.Every time he tried calling him and his number didn’t go through... or the call went unanswered, she felt her nerves tighten, as though something were scraping against them.And whenever he didn’t come back home on time, it felt as though invisible hands were tugging at her heart, strangling it with fear.She had taught he
