The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Clearly the better man
“Eahhh!” Landon screamed in agony as the whip struck his skin, digging so deep that when it was retracted, it took so much flesh that his bone was visible. “Bastard, how dare you harm our boss!?” Landon's henchmen rushed out to attack William, pulling out their weapons intending to cut William apart. Unfortunately for them, they underestimated William's ability with a whip. Within moments, the whip lashed out multiple times, and with each lash, a henchman was struck, ensuring that the moment they fell, they would never get back up. By the time William was done, Landon's henchmen were dead, and the bastard was left stunned as he stared wide-eyed at William. “... Who are you?” Landon asked with a terrified look on his face.Landon had always been the one with the whip and while he was with it, many had suffered unimaginable pain.He was capable of using it in ways that ensured that though the person wouldn't die, they would undoubtedly wish for death.But now, someone else was with
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates The Plague Doctor
William snorted as he watched the attackers jump out of their hiding spots.They numbered almost a hundred, and each one wielded both cold and hot weapons while also possessing spiritual energy, which marked them out as cultivators.William tossed Landon aside like a piece of wood before charging at the attackers, who also rushed at him.What followed was a terrifying battle that left Landon despairing as William used his fists, legs, and even the whip he'd confiscated to end the lives of Landon's henchmen.The sounds of fighting and agonized screaming ended roughly fifteen minutes later, with William, the last man, standing while every other individual was left sprawling on the ground.For those that were not dead, it was more than certain that they would never be able to move again as William turned them into vegetables.“You are a monster!” Landon exclaimed as he stared at William who was rapidly approaching him, having already dealt with his henchmen.“I will give you one chance t
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates A coward, a wastrel and a fool
Marcel had come across numerous individuals in his lifetime as a man seeking the ultimate cure to mortality, a quest he embarked on after the death of his master, the Poison Master.With the experience he had gathered, he was quite good at gauging an opponent's strength but when faced with a masked William, he found himself unable to do that.It was almost like he was standing before a great beast that would devour him should he step out of line.His heart palpitated, an act that hadn't happened in a long while, considering it was out of fear.“Who… are… you?” Marcel asked in a hoarse tone.“My identity is not important,” William replied. “What is important is the fact that we will have problems if you harm that girl or any of those people.”“I… paid… for… them.” “Then I'll repay you,” William said. “Just let them go.”Marcel blinked a few times, weighing the pros and cons of an exchange with William before ultimately nodding in agreement.Putting the vial aside, he took out a pen an
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Cultivation paths
Zara would have never expected that a casual walk through the forest with her grandfather in search of rare herbs would cause such a huge commotion as the one happening right now.Not only had they attracted the attention of a wild beast, they were ill-equipped to deal with it.Though she was a cultivator, she was what would be referred to as a Healer, which meant that she had no fighting skills.Usually, once one went down the cultivation path, they would be faced with four potential options: they could either be a Healer, an Alchemist, a Combatant,, or an Assassin.Very few were able to go down two paths at the same time and still expect to go far in their cultivation journey, and none in the history of mankind had managed to master all four paths, to her knowledge, of course.In any case, she had gone down the Healer path as her family, the Khan family, were known in the cultivation world as healers.Their company, Khan Pharmaceuticals, was one of the largest medical brands in the
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates I regret to inform you
Marcel grabbed Ava and dragged her to the waiting operating table, placing her on it without any effort, revealing the difference in strength between an established cultivator and a normal human. “Please, spare me… you don't have to do this!” Ava cried out as she saw her eyes flash before her eyes as Marcel tried to pour the contents of the vial he was holding into her mouth.Just then, a voice was heard.“That's enough.”Marcel paused, shifting his attention to the entrance of his workshop where a masked man in all black was standing.The only thing visible was the man's piercing blue eyes and his domineering aura that completely suppressed Marcel's eerie aura. Clearly, this was not just an ordinary man.“Let her go.” The masked man said as he took a step further into Marcel's workshop, the latter of which was scrutinizing him, almost like he was wondering whether he should attack or not.As William remained silent, his attention elsewhere, the guards saw this as him silently admit
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Dream Beetle
As they watched William leave, the two guards began to mock him. “Hmmph, he really thought that the young miss would fall for his lies.”“That's what he gets for thinking he can deceive us with his petty acts.”Just then, Zara spoke up, addressing the departing William. “Wait!”William paused and then, glanced back at Zara while the guards panicked.“Young Miss, don't tell me…”“Hush.” Zara scolded before shifting her attention back to the waiting William.“Can my grandfather truly be saved?” It was clear that she was trying to believe that William could truly save her grandfather.William nodded. “He can. Though the process is delicate, I am one hundred percent certain that I can pull it off.”Biting down on her lower lip, Zara pondered for a while before she finally replied. “Then please, help me save my grandfather.”“No, young Miss, you mustn't believe the words of a scammer!” The first guard cried out with the other remarking.“He clearly doesn't know what he is saying. He migh
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Zayn Khan
“Grandpa.” Zara breathed out in shock as she stared at her now-breathing grandfather.Zayn Khan, Zara’s grandfather, gasped for air while he kept his gaze on William.It was clear that unlike before, he was aware of his surroundings.“Grandpa,” Zara called out again, snapping him out of his momentary trance.Zayn reached out and stroked Zara's hair. “Zara, my dear granddaughter, it's truly you.”“Grandpa,” Zara muttered, her eyes wet once again but not out of sadness but instead of joy.She instinctively leaped into Zayn's arms, embracing him tightly while letting out the joy in her heart.The guards exchanged looks with one another, unsure of what to make of the current situation as they didn't expect such an outcome.Satisfied that his work was done, William made to leave only for Zayn to call out to him.“Young man!”William paused, glancing back at Zayn, who was scrutinizing him with clear eyes.“You saved me.”“I was only doing my job.” William calmly replied.“But it doesn't cha
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates A Khan conspiracy
“This is impossible, father, how did this happen?” Omar, Zara’s father remarked.Zayn snorted. “I thought you for so many years yet when I needed your expertise the most, you went ahead to give a rubbish diagnosis. All it took this man to save me was just one look. I should beat you for disappointing me.”“Father, I don't understand. You were clearly suffering from dementia.”“Best stop talking rubbish otherwise, don't blame me for beating you!” Zayn warned.Omar said nothing, though he didn't hesitate to glare at William, with the latter meeting his gaze calmly.“Dad, come with me, we have to head to the hospital to run some tests.”“Bah, I told you that focusing too much on modern mediums is going to make you small-minded, yet you still don't want to listen. Look here, this young man has cured me so there's no reason to carry out any other checks ups. Just take me home.”“But dad…”“I said take me home already. I need to rest, and yes, this young man is coming with us,” Zayn said, l

More than what meets the eye
Without even sparing Zachary a glance, she turned around toward William and said, “Mr. Belmont, the exhibition is about to start. Why don’t you follow me to the pre-show exhibition to go over the items? ”“Very well.” William nodded.William shot Zachary a glance and smiled before he followed Cecilia out of the reception hall.Perry’s legs finally gave in and brought him to the ground.Zachary gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, trying to suppress the fire burning inside of his belly.The last scornful glance that William gave him was a sharp jab at his self-esteem.“Asshole!”He waited until the two were gone before he allowed himself to be seized by anger.He wrenched a half-empty wine glass on the table and smashed it on the floor.“Mr. Zach, please watch your actions.” Another manager who was called to deal with the emergency said with a scowl.Zachary looked around and realized that he had become a laughingstock. He stormed out of the room with the taste of defeat in his mo
A queen from a world of ice
Just as the guards were about to do as Perry had ordered to kick William out, they heard an icy voice rise behind the crowd:“Don’t touch him!”Everyone looked toward the voice, and they saw a beautiful girl with a cold and aloof face walking toward the commotion.The crowd split into two halves as people made way for the girl.The girl was in a beautiful white gown and a pair of stiletto heels.She looked to be one meter and seventy-eight centimeters or above.A sense of pride and dominance emanated from her wild and gleaming eyes, making many less confident men and women lower their heads.It was as if the girl was a queen from a world of ice.“Who is she? How dare she speak up for William?” One of the onlookers asked with disdain.Those who had already recognized the girl were shocked by the onlooker’s daring question.One of them hurried to cover the onlooker’s mouth and said, “Are you crazy? That’s the princess of the Lancaster Family.”“Princess of the Lancaster Family?” The onl
Kick him out
Manager Perry was unfazed by the question. He said calmly, “Because I know Young Master Zach is a good friend of my boss. But I can’t remember who this young gentleman over here is even though I have written all the invitations by myself. May I ask who you are?”“It doesn't matter what his name is.” Zachary snorted. “I really don’t think that he is on your invitation list.”As soon as Zachary fished his words, Victoria’s mind raced in a bid to figure out a way to handle the situation.“I don’t think he has one. He must have snuck in.” An onlooker jeered at William.“I bet you are right! Look at all the garbage that he is wearing. I can’t believe that they let him in.” Another one took a jab at William.“He is in knee-deep trouble! The owner of the Lancaster International Group was not someone he could mess with. Plus, he is on Zachary’s bad terms, too. He is as dead as a doornail.” Someone heaved a sigh.“Sir, please show me your invitation, or else I will have to call security.” Mana
A dramatic development
Darius was taken aback by the news.He knew that Zachary’s short temper would very likely prompt him to start a brawl with William on sight.“Speaking of the devil! Look, isn’t that Zachary?” Jared gasped.The other two looked over toward the entrance, and they saw a brawny young man in a gym suit storm into the event hall, pushing people out of his way as he went.“And so it begins... anyone wants some popcorn?” The dramatic development amused Darius.Even as William and Victoria, along with Zara, were gleefully sampling the ensemble of deserts on the table, a man came over to them with a few large strides.“Vicky, come here for a second, I need to talk to you.”Zachary didn’t even spare William a glance as he fixed his eyes on Victoria.Victoria raised a brow. “First of all, Vicky?... I don't think we've ever been that close. Secondly, what's up?... Why can’t you just tell me here?”“Here?” Zachary scanned around him and then turned to William and Zara, and said with a commanding vo
Preserving his master's destiny
Back in the exhibition hall, William searched through the items on display only to discover that the Dragon Fang on display was a fake.To think that he'd wasted his time trying to look for it. Just as he considered leaving, a suited man approached him and remarked. “Could you please come with me, young master?”Judging from the way the man addressed him, William understood that he had no ill intentions but he was still perplexed as to why the man had approached him.“Where to, exactly?”“The exhibition happening here is only the beginning. There's a second exhibition that will be taking place tomorrow at a private location, and you've been invited.”William furrowed his brows. “Why?”“The Lancasters would appreciate it if you attended and would be more than happy to handle any request you might have for them.”At this point, onlookers had begun to gather, quite curious to figure out what was happening.Upon hearing that the suited man was connected to the Lancasters, they began to m
Until we meet again
According to Cecilia’s instructions, they opened the display case and carefully took out the three-legged cauldron.They then turned it over and revealed the bottom of the cauldron.Cecilia stared at the bottom of the furnace and carefully scrutinized it a few times while the people around them craned their necks to see what was on the bottom.This allowed William to confirm that the cauldron was indeed a replica.“There’s no mark on the bottom of the cauldron,” William reminded kindly.“Mark?”“What mark?”“Never heard of such a thing...”The people standing around hadn’t done much research on antiques, so most of them didn’t understand what exactly William meant.But the Lancasters had built their business empire off of antiques, so Cecilia naturally understood the technical jargon and what William meant.Her gaze fixed on the cauldron.“There really isn’t a mark!” Her expression became rather sullen.But many people around were still confused.William explained kindly, “The so-call
Tired of living
rCecilia’s eyes lit up, and she seemed to be deep in thought. “There’s indeed such a possibility. But how are you so sure that this cauldron is a replica and not the real deal?”Cecilia’s gaze was clear.She wasn’t questioning William but genuinely asking him for guidance.Her attitude immediately took the countless people around them by surprise.Cecilia had behaved like an arrogant, domineering, and spoiled heiress when confronting Donald just now.But she was now facing William with an extremely calm attitude and didn’t lose her temper even when he doubted the authenticity of the antiques at the exhibition.Instead, she was discussing it composedly with him.It was indeed a little strange.William explained a little bit about the history and process of the cloisonné enamelware, which immediately made the entrepreneurs around them cluck their tongues in awe.Although some of them were antique collectors, most of them were focused only on the elegance of the antiques and had never d
Ending up in a worse plight
The hidden threat in Ava's words immediately enraged Cecilia.“Hmph, it’s just the Redmond family! He’s still just a scion now and not the helmsman yet. Even if the helmsman were right in front of me now, I’d tell him to get lost all the same! Don’t think you guys are that big of a deal. If you get on my nerves, I can easily destroy your family! Now, get lost!” Cecilia sounded extremely domineering and even seemed to have a touch of arrogance.Although she seemed to be only in her twenties and was much younger than everyone present, no one dared to question the truth of her words.After all, it would be a piece of cake for a giant like the Lancasters to annihilate the Redmonds!Finding Cecilia overly tyrannical and unreasonable, Ava bit her lower lip. “Miss Lancaster, how can you...”“Shut up!” Donald suddenly interrupted and rebuked before Ava could finish speaking.“Miss Lancaster, I’ll definitely make it up to you another day for offending you with my words today!” Donald maintaine
I, Cecilia Lancaster
Donald was livid, and he roared with a menacing expression, “William Belmont, you’re deliberately provoking the Redmonds! I won’t let you off!”William sneered. “You’re making it sound as if you’d let me off even if I stand here without doing anything! You’ve been the one looking to create trouble right from the start!”“Fine, you’ve got some nerve! Let me tell you, just wait. The Redmonds will release their wrath on you!” Donald snapped furiously.“Hmph, it’s just the Redmond family. What’s the big deal?” William said nonchalantly without taking the Redmonds seriously at all.Donald should have been even angrier, but all of a sudden, his heart was full of an inexplicable panic.Generally, those who dared to disregard the Redmonds were either too dense and ignorant to get a clear idea of the situation or simply fearless.Given how William had angered Donald to the point of being speechless multiple times, he definitely wasn’t a fool...‘Could William Belmont really have something to f
