But at this time, the old fogy Thomas was still babbling incessantly with the sole purpose of letting him know that the person in front of him wasn’t related to the Gray family.

It was completely unnecessary because if the Gray family had such an incredible expert, they wouldn’t have had to ask him for help.

The person standing at the entrance of the villa was naturally John.

Staring at Slade standing in the villa, John moved his fingers, and a sharp dagger spun between them in a fancy manner, looking just like an exquisite flower of light blooming in his hand.

He asked coldly, “Are you Walter?”

Slade frowned. “Are you here for me? Who are you?”

“You don’t need to know who I am. You just need to know that you’re the person I’m looking for!” While speaking, John walked toward the villa.

The Gray family members stood outside the villa, not daring to get too close, though they heard the conversation between Slade and John.

“It seems this person should be Slade’s enemy. He barged into our

  • Bringing doom upon one's self

    Victoria’s brow was deeply furrowed as she cracked her head thinking of a way out of her predicament.The way things had played out was beyond her expectations, and she was in a dilemma right now.“William, hurry. You should leave the city as soon as possible. Knowing Trevor, he’d never let you off the hook!” Victoria was suddenly reminded of the danger William was in.“Don’t you worry? Trevor won’t be able to mess with me so easily.” William smiled and continued. “Oh, and leave the matter of calling off the marriage to me. If persuasion doesn’t work on him, then we’ll try more aggressive means.”“More aggressive means?” Richard and the rest of the Smiths were taken aback by William’s suggestion, and they all stared at him like he had gone out of his mind.He wanted to use more aggressive means against the Storms?Did he have a death wish?“William, if you have a death wish, that’s all on you. Please do not implicate us!” Charlotte said sternly with a frown.From how she saw it, her d

  • Shameless

    The Smiths had strict rules, especially toward their daughters, who were expected to preserve their innocence until the day they were married.“Victoria Smith, you are shameless! Absolutely vile!” Jane was so angry she slammed her hands on the table and jumped up from her seat.With her brother’s status and prestige, he was never going to marry a woman who had slept with someone else.“Are you trying to provoke me?” Trevor’s brow knitted together ever so slightly.A brief second later, he regained his composure and put on a facade of indifference. “I do not mind that you’ve lost your virginity.”“What?” Once again, everyone was shocked by what they heard, especially the Storms.It was like they did not even know Trevor anymore.“You do not mind that I’m no longer a virgin? Well, what if I told you that I’m with child?” Victoria tossed him another shocker. “Truth be told, I’m pregnant. I’m carrying William’s child!”The moment she said that a commotion came over the room.“Oh, you wret

  • Stop messing around!

    “Of course it is! We’re very pleased with the sincerity that the Storm family has shown us.” Richard nodded with a smile.“Great! Since you’re happy with this, we shall proceed with the marriage. We will come for the bride in 10 days!” Jane cut things straight to the point.“Sur-” Richard was just about to agree to the arrangement when the crisp voice of a woman sounded.“No, I do not agree with this!”“What?” When they heard that, everyone’s gaze shot over to the entrance of the lounge.With everyone’s eyes on her, Victoria slowly made her way into the lounge with several people behind her. “l do not agree to the marriage alliance.”“You do not agree?” Jane’s expression darkened. “Have you any idea what you’re saying, Victoria?”“Of course I have. And I stand by my words: I will not marry Trevor Storm,” Victoria said impassively.“What is the meaning of this?... Mr. Smith, are you going back on our arrangement?” Trevor slowly looked up, his sharp gaze directed pointedly at Richard. “

  • Enemy amongst us

    Upon hearing that the man had been poisoned, Victoria began to panic, after all, this was a gathering organized by the Smith family.For someone to be poisoned, especially one of the guests, would end up damaging the reputation of her family.As much as she was being forced into annoying situations by her family, Victoria couldn't accept them being humiliated by external parties.To that end, she immediately called for the waiters to drag the man out of the public eye before it caused too much of a commotion among those present.Meanwhile, William inspected the man thoroughly before remarking.“It seems to be the wine he drank.” “Does that mean the wine served to the guests is poisoned?”“If I were to guess, no, this amount of poison is too potent to be used indiscriminately.”“Which means they were targeting a particular individual; he just turned out to be the one to take the poisoned chalice,” Victoria remarked, with William nodding in agreement.“You might want to get your men to

  • An odd interaction

    Victoria’s tone turned sharp. “Knowing Trevor Storm, he can’t bear it if anything is tainted. Tomorrow, when they send the gifts over, I’ll tell him that I’m already yours. With his pride, there’s no way he’ll accept that. He might even annul our engagement on the spot!”“Are you sure it’ll work?” William asked, unsure.“It’s worth a shot.” Victoria grinned mischievously. “No matter what, I’ll be kicking up a fuss tomorrow. That way, the Storm family would never accept a daughter-in-law like me!”Pursing his lips, William could only hope that their plan was successful.With that, they discussed other matters until it was quite late into the evening.William did not leave right after meeting Victoria.Instead, he stayed in the Smith estate under the pretense of treating Richard’s illness.The next morning, the Smiths‘ annual family gathering had officially begun.Countless people began pouring into the estate, luxury cars casually clustering the plaza.Besides those from the Smith fami

  • Only way forward

    Before leaving the room, William halted and turned his head around. “Mr. Smith, the poison isn’t a simple issue. The person who poisoned you probably has more in store. Be careful of those around you.”“Got it.” Richard nodded.He has always lived in seclusion, so it wasn’t easy to poison him.It was also worth noting that tomorrow was the annual family gathering.As the head of the family, things would be thrown into chaos should others find out that he had fallen ill.Therefore, it was hard not to have suspicions when the timing at which things were happening was so precarious.“Charlotte, who do you think poisoned me?” Richard asked all of a sudden.“I can’t think of anyone capable of such vicious poisoning and holds a grudge against our family,” Charlotte responded in a serious tone.“I see.” Richard sighed again. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, “What do you think of William?”“He’s a genius who’s skilled in both medicine and martial arts. He might be the best among h
