Chapter 486 – Madam Tush’s Fury
*****The guards froze mid-stride upon hearing Xavier… everyone did. Xavier’s tone was not that of a man facing death or defeat. It was calm, detached, and almost... curious.He looked directly at Madam Tush, meeting her sadistic gaze without a flicker of fear. His eyes were sharp and unreadable, piercing straight into her as he asked:“Have you ever given birth before?”Silence fell over the store, then everyone blinked in confusion.They had thought he was about to plead for mercy, to threaten retaliation, or even break down. But this?For a moment, no one could react, but then…“What kind of imbecilic question is that?! How is that relevant?!” Master Tush spat with fury and murderous intent.But Madam Tush lifted a hand to stop her husband, her curiosity piqued.“No. Let him speak,” she murmured, her eyes narrowing. She wanted to know where Xavier was going with this question.Master Tush hesitated, sensing that whatever Xavier was about to say wouldn’t be good.He wante
Chapter 485 – Madam Tush’s Scheme
*****Xavier’s eyelids fluttered for a brief second, his expression subtly furrowing as his brows pulled together in growing perplexity.‘Why… did I suddenly remember this forgotten memory now?’ he murmured silently within his thoughts, a faint glint of bewilderment flashing in his eyes.That incident... long buried beneath the chaos of everything that had followed, hadn’t surfaced once in the past five years.In fact, it felt less like something that had truly happened and more like a hazy memory, distant and unreal. And yet now, in this very moment, it surged back to the forefront of his mind.Suddenly, like the clouds parting before a scorching sun, realization crashed upon him with clarity.‘I must have recalled the incident because of the village… the one that vile bastard Vidor spoke of in his twisted confession.’Thinking this, Xavier exhaled sharply, pushing the memory aside with sheer force of will.He had no time for distractions for the time being. Not while being s
Chapter 484 – A Fleeting Recollection of a Forgotten, Unimportant Past
*****[ Promised bonus chapter. ]…….Everyone stood utterly still at this moment, staring in a daze at the crumbled walls and the settling cloud of debris.Just mere seconds ago, they had all come to the same grim conclusion—Vidor was going to strike and annihilate Little Lola without hesitation… his murderous intent had been crystal clear.Master Tush had been incensed beyond belief, veins bulging from his temples, and he had prepared to subject Vidor to a torment so excruciating for daring to go against his command.He had made up his mind to make Vidor beg for death. How dare he defy an explicit order?He had been on the brink of commanding his guards to seize Vidor, ready to deliver punishment with an iron hand.But before a single word could even leave his lips, Vidor had suddenly been flung away like a broken puppet, crashing through several reinforced walls.He had rocketed through the air with such speed and force that blood erupted from his mouth before he finally h
Chapter 483 – Vidor’s Confession II and His Sudden Dread
*****The silence that followed Vidor’s confession was utterly different.It wasn’t from a stunned awe. Instead, it was from a horror, everyone was unable to believe their ears.Even the most cold-hearted within the store… Master Tush felt a strong chill settle deep in his bones, his jaw dropping to the ground.Everyone stared at Vidor in a daze. Not as a man, but as something monstrous… something unhinged.No one made even the slightest trace of sound. It wasn't because they chose silence, but because none of them seemed to notice it at all.And this lasted for what felt like an eternity before finally…“You… you murdered Little Lola’s mother?” A fragile, trembling voice pierced through the silence, the words soaked in disbelief and thick with sorrow.Vidor slowly turned his head, and upon seeing the speaker, an aggressive look appeared on his face.“Yes!” he bellowed, his voice suddenly booming with twisted pride. “I gave her a slow, silent poison. After all, what use was s
Chapter 482 – Vidor’s Confession
*****“…can any of you even fathom it?!”Vidor’s gaze dimmed, the once-raging fire in his eyes momentarily flickering out as his voice dropped to a ghostly murmur. It was almost as if he were speaking to the ghosts of his past rather than the crowd before him.He gazed into the void with complete emptiness in his eyes, looking as though a painful memory had resurfaced and bound his soul to its torment.Anyone with even a trace of empathy could sense the sheer torment rippling through him. This wasn't mere regret… it was anguish that it cut deeply into him like a sharpened blade.“I… I was devastated,” he rasped, his voice fracturing like glass under pressure. “That day… I nearly collapsed. I genuinely thought the earth had crumbled beneath my feet.His body swayed, gripped by the phantom tremors of that day.“She was the most enchanting woman in our entire village,” Vidor continued, a twisted smile crawling up his face. “I loved her more than my own life, and I would have bled
Chapter 481– A Solved Puzzle, The Truth Behind Little Lola
*****[ Previously promised chapter. ]…..Xavier wasn’t the only one staggered beyond comprehension after hearing Vidor’s vicious and venomous response to his question.Every single soul present stood motionless, paralyzed by disbelief.It was as if thunder had struck and left their minds smoldering as Vidor’s words reverberated like the echo of a gunshot, searing through the air with ruthless clarity.The one most shaken… utterly demolished was none other than Little Lola.Though still a child in form, she possessed a mind far more developed than her peers, a maturity shaped not by love or nurture, but by the cruelty life had beaten into her. Her heart had been battered countless times, but never had it shattered so violently before.She gazed at Vidor—her so-called father in a daze, forgetting her earlier terror and apprehension. The man had terrorized her days, robbed her of food, snatched away every coin she ever had, hurled her out into the streets like worthless trash,
Chapter 480 – Madam Tush’s Venonous Words & Successfully Gaslighted
*****“For twenty godforsaken years, I’ve dedicated every breath to you, and yet the first time someone whispers poison in your ear, you turn on me like a rabid dog? You trusted a stranger… a violent, evil mongrel over me?”“I… I didn’t know what to believe—” Master Tush choked, utterly helpless, regretful, and frustrated right now. But before he could finish…“Oh shut up!” his wife snapped at him, her tone now brimming with venom.“You make me sick. You couldn’t even see what was right in front of you! Look at what he did to me! Look at the bruises, the bandages, the blood! And you DARED to hesitate? You call yourself a husband? You don’t deserve to kneel at my feet, much less call me your wife!”Each word was carved into Master Tush’s bloated pride like a jagged dagger. He lowered his head, his entire frame quivering with regret.“I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…” he muttered, his voice collapsing into itself.But Madam Tush was far from done.Her eyes blazed now… not with grief, bu
Chapter 479 – A Seasoned Manipulator
*****Madam Tush’s limbs began to fail her, her knees buckling as a wave of dread washed over her, crashing into her chest like a tidal wave.She staggered, her spine prickling with icy fear.She had been meticulous… frighteningly so over the years.She had constantly laced every smile, touch, and midnight whisper with deception. For years, she had hidden her betrayal beneath the façade of a devoted and faithful wife, wrapping herself in the illusion of love.She had played her role perfectly so that she would never be caught.She had done every single thing to hide her disgust for her husband, yet now…A violent tremor raced through Madam Tush’s body, and for the briefest moment, a flicker of guilt… raw and damning flashed across the visible part of her heavily made-up face. But then, her heart skipped a frantic beat.‘NOT NOW!’ Her mind screamed at her. ‘I can’t afford a single mistake right now. Not even a flinch nor a tear out of place.’Madam Tush forcefully calmed herse
Chapter 478 – Vidor and Madam Tush’s Terror (Previously promised Bonus Chapter)
*****(Previously promised Bonus Chapter)….Absolutely no one anticipated the venom Xavier spewed so suddenly.Not Master Tush, not the smug guards, not the trembling attendant, not the haughty Madam Tush—Not even Vidor, the worthless excuse of a man, whom Xavier had thrown his question at.They all stood paralyzed, their expressions frozen in time, stunned by the bombshell Xavier had casually dropped like a flaming meteor into their fragile reality.His words continued echoing through the store like a curse, sticking in the air and clearly haunting their thoughts.Seconds ticked by, feeling like eternal minutes.Then—“Wha… what kind of deranged filth just came out of your mouth?!”Both Vidor and Madam Tush shrieked simultaneously, their voices laced with unmistakable panic. It was as if they shared not just the same sin, but the same rotting soul.At that precise moment, both of them were internally crumbling.Vidor’s face was flushed crimson with dread. He knew exact
