*****

Pak!

An unexpected loud, resounding slap echoed through the emporium like a thunderclap.

In the next second, Madam Tush’s head snapped to the side, her cheek instantly inflaming with a hand-shaped welt.

She staggered back twice, then a thunderstruck expression appeared on her face as she gasped.

Silence fell once again, dead, unbreathable, and suffocating.

Everyone froze.

No one could process what had just happened.

Lyria, on the other hand, stood tall, her hand still raised, her expression now one of righteous fury.

“Watch your tongue,” she hissed, her voice trembling not from fear, but from restrained rage.

“You dare speak that way to him?” she continued, her eyes burning into Madam Tush like molten gold. “If I hear one more disrespectful word out of your mouth to the master, I promise you that I’ll personally make sure you can’t speak again.”

“You dare speak that way to him?” she continued, her eyes burning into Madam Tush like molten gold. “If I hear one more disr

    *****[ A/N: A bonus chapter for no reason. :)Enjoy it and please give a nice feedback ;)]…… Before she knew it, Madam Tush reeled backward from the sudden, unexpected slap to her face, she stumbled back a few steps as she clutched her cheek, brimming with disbelief.‘This….Loud gasps erupted from the crowd, everyone stunned to the core by what had just happened.Meanwhile, Madam Tush…“You… you… You hit me?” she whispered, pointing at her husband and trembling all over, her finger shaking violently.But Master Tush, who had just slapped her—his first time ever raising a hand against her—stepped forward, his eyes blazing with a mix of fury, madness, and heartbreak. “You dare cheat on me?!”He fumed, looking as though he would explode."I... I... I gave you everything!" he roared, his voice badly shaking, raw with betrayal. "Even when you denied me a child, I remained loyal! Even when people laughed at me for marrying and staying devoted to a penniless, barren girl fro

  • Chapter 503 – Madam Tush’s Failed Gaslight

    *****The more Master Tush questioned his wife, the more his voice cracked, his fury rising like a tide.His face flushed crimson, but it wasn't just anger… it was betrayal, heartbreak, and complete emotional ruin, bleeding into the whites of his eyes until they glowed with a terrifying red hue.His breathing grew ragged, his chest heaved, and thick veins bulged at his temple.Meanwhile, Madam Tush trembled in place like a criminal awaiting judgment. Her lower lip quivered, and then… right on cue, her eyes became filled with tears.Before she knew it, salty streams began to cascade down her cheeks in what could only be described as the most pitiful crocodile tears anyone had seen.“Hus… husband,” she whimpered, her voice barely audible. It was hoarse, like someone desperately clinging to pity.Then she staggered toward him with calculated slowness, adopting a posture of despair.Her eyes widened, her mouth trembled, and her fingers twitched like she had just been accused of mu

  • Chapter 502 – Master Tush’s Pain

    *****Master Tush was lost at this moment.Utterly adrift in a whirlwind of disbelief, agony, and humiliation, he stood there, numb and disoriented. He didn’t know what to say or how to feel.All he was feeling was pain… a blistering, soul-wrenching torment that tore through his chest like molten iron. A betrayal so deep that it left him gasping.His wife’s deception wasn’t merely a lie. It was a calculated betrayal, a venom-tipped dagger plunged into his heart while he held hers in trembling reverence.She hadn’t just fabricated a story.She had weaponized his love.And now, the consequences of that deceit were beginning to devour him from within.Although he had worn a mask of strength in front of others, forcing himself to appear composed for her sake, inside, however, he had been unraveling ever since he saw her in that hospital bed, feigning agony behind gauze and bandages.That image had haunted him.The thought that someone had dared to hurt his beloved wife had pushe

  • Chapter 501 – Madam Tush’s Theatrics III

    *****[ As a special thank you for this amazing milestone, here’s a bonus chapter just for you! Let’s celebrate together! ]…..“The… the agony… It’s unbearable…” she moaned, her eyelids fluttering shut like she was slipping into unconsciousness.With her ghastly complexion, the sheen of sweat, and trembling lips, she looked like someone on the verge of death.Some of the more gullible observers, like the attendant, wavered. But those who knew better exchanged cynical glances. Lyria rolled her eyes so hard it was a miracle they didn’t get stuck in the back of her head.Master Tush, however, looked like his soul was being crushed. His eyes widened in panic as he wrapped his arms around his devious wife.“Sir Patriarch, please!” he pleaded, desperation seeping from his every pore. “She’s going to collapse! Let me take her to the hospital—I beg you!”Still, Sage Myron said nothing. He merely observed Madam Tush, his eyes flat and devoid of mercy.And that made it worse.Madam T

Here’s to many more chapters together! ]……..The snort that just echoed wasn’t loud or furious.No.It was instead soft and casual. However, it was filled with so much pressure and spiritual might that it instantly silenced the entire room.In the next second, the temperature seemed to plummet drastically, and the very air in the room grew heavier.Suddenly, no one could breathe properly.Master Tush’s words caught in his throa

  • Chapter 499 – Madam Tush’s Theatrics I

    *****Still inside the grand, opulent herb store marred by shattered walls, splintered beams, and broken fragments of luxury, an eerie silence loomed like a thick fog.No one moved.No one spoke.No one even blinked.It was as if time itself had come to a screeching halt.All eyes remained fixated on Xavier, their gazes blank and stupefied, unable to digest the sheer gravity of everything he had just recounted.He had already finished relaying the entire truth as it had happened a moment ago, his voice calm, unwavering, and brutally honest. Yet, not a soul had stirred since then.Not Master Tush.Not Madam Tush.Not the trembling attendant.Not even Lyria or the mighty Sage Myron.They all just stood there, frozen in an eternal moment of reckoning. It wasn’t until what felt like an entire epoch had passed that their heads began to turn.And not haphazardly.No… every head shifted with perfect synchronicity, as if commanded by a single unseen puppeteer.Their collective

  • Chapter 498 – Tush Couple’s Terror

    *****‘He... he bowed? Sage Myron just bowed to someone of his grandchild’s age?!’The horrified thought echoed like a shrieking alarm in the minds of every witness.Their hearts pounded violently against their ribcages, thudding with a ferocity that threatened to burst out of their chests.At long last, they were beginning to understand—though unwillingly and with mounting terror—the dreadful truth.Xavier… the so-called nobody they had ridiculed, falsely accused, and gleefully prepared to torture… wasn’t just someone of importance. He was something else entirely, an existence far beyond anything their limited minds could have ever comprehended.In an instant, their faces became drained of all color, turning ghostly pale. A cold, paralyzing dread clutched them like an icy hand, freezing their bodies and minds alike.One by one, Master Tush, the venomous Madam Tush, their brutish guards, and Vidor’s lackey shifted their gazes toward Xavier, their expressions stiff with horror.

  • Chapter 497 – An Unexpected Scene In The Herb Emporium

    *****‘Him too?’This single, thunderous thought ricocheted through every stunned mind present after a moment, echoing with such a strong force that it shook their understanding of reality.The atmosphere inside the store had thickened into a suffocating haze of disbelief.Several eyes bulged, mouths hung open, and every logic became fractured.Moments ago, they had barely begun to comprehend why someone as ethereal and respected as Lyria… Sage Myron’s precious granddaughter had treated Xavier with such unimaginable reverence.That slap she had delivered to Madam Tush is still burned in memory; it was a stunning act that rocked the entire building. Her actions had seemed inexplicable, almost lunatic. After all, what value could a lowly outsider like Xavier possibly hold?But they had reluctantly forced themselves to accept it, chalking it up to Lyria’s soft heart or naivety.Now, however, the situation had morphed into something beyond any rational explanation.Sage Myron, th

  • Chapter 495 – Sage Myron’s Unexpected Change of Countenance

    *****“The young mistress refused to let us act! She protected the criminal who had robbed your store, defiled your honored family name, and tried to shatter the place, like he was some sacred treasure!”A moment of silence stretched taut like a drawn bowstring within the room.For the first time, a furrow creased Sage Myron’s usually implacable face. His eyes narrowed slightly as he regarded Madam Tush with a cool, probing gaze.“You say you were badly injured? That multiple bones were broken?” he asked quietly.As soon as the words left his lips, Madam Tush’s heart skipped a beat, and then her pupils dilated. Cold sweat also bloomed across her forehead.‘Did he see through my lies?!’ she panicked, the edges of her lips twitching despite her best efforts to remain composed.But then she shook her head mentally, steeling her resolve behind a mask of pitiful sincerity. He couldn’t have. No one could prove otherwise…“That’s exactly the case, sir,” she replied with feigned convi
