The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Know your place
Zara stood on the second floor, overlooking the party hall below, in full view of those below but none dared to approach her.Or so far at least.***William arrived in the Corvette with Victoria.The duo stepped out, revealing Victoria to be wearing a fiery red dress while William wore a pale blue suit.Just as they were about to reach the entrance, William instinctively raised his head only to notice Zara standing on a balcony.She looked down at the same time and for a brief moment, their eyes met.Once she was out of sight, William recovered long enough to hear Victoria. “The invitation.”Shaking his head, he took out the card Zayn had given him after their discussion earlier in the day letter and handed it over to the guards at the hall entrance.“You may go in.” The doors opened and a whole new world was displayed on the other end.“Amazing.” Victoria mouthed as she took in the sight.“It's even more splendid than when I first came in,” William confessed.Many were in attendan

William remained calm as he took Victoria's hand and prepared to move away, however, Aston was unwilling to let the matter slide as he stood in his way.“You dare leave after insulting my image before these many people?”“You insulted yourself, don't make things harder than they are supposed to be.”“Do you think yourself worthy of such a price?... Don't flatter yourself, Mr. Belmont, you shouldn't even be here if not for the foolishness of a few.”William ignored his words and once again tried to leave; unfortunately, Aston remained the ever-stubborn party.“Will you not move?” William inquired.Aston snorted as he spat coldly. “I challenge you to combat. Do you dare accept?”William remained silent, merely holding Aston's gaze as he contemplated the best way to teach the imbecile a lesson.Just then, Mr. Lincoln, the head of the Lincoln family, stepped forward.“Aston, back down.” He remarked, to the surprise of many present. As a proud family leader, one would think he would even

Aston tried to fight back but William overpowered him quickly before going ahead to pummel the fool till he was satisfied.He struck with reckless abandon while Aston first threatened them and began to beg for mercy.Several were stunned by the scene, watching as the great young master of the Lincoln family was reduced to a pulp.William didn't kill Aston, perhaps out of respect for Mr. Lincoln and because he didn't exactly enjoy killing.He got to his feet, taking one last look at Aston's face, which was now a bleeding mess, before turning away and walking back to Victoria, who was waiting with a warm smile.“That was brutal but oddly satisfying to watch.” She remarked sweetly as she took him to a seat and helped him clean his bloody fists before assisting him in putting his clothes back on.At this point, very few dared to keep partying as they began to realize that they had underestimated the man before them.He was quite a terrifying foe!It wasn't until an hour later that the par

With each ingredient William touched, the poison was cleansed and the ingredient improved to a whole new level of tastefulness.Then, William began to work.However, by now, 3 minutes had already been expended with Caleb far ahead of him, but William didn't panic and moved at a leisurely pace, clearly enjoying the preparations.Soon enough, the meals were prepared, with Caleb finishing first and William completing his two minutes later.Caleb grinned triumphantly while also mocking William inwardly.'I actually thought you noticed the minute traces of poison in the ingredients which was why you didn't dare to cook. If you had decided not to cook, it would have been a means to humiliate you but I guess your pride made you unwilling to back down. Now you'll see, your actions will mark you down as an enemy for life.’A group of judges were picked out, each one a member of the upper echelons of the gathering with Zayn and Omar among the judges.Even Mr. Lincoln was there along with two ot

Victoria could tell that something was wrong but what it was, she couldn't quite figure out.All she knew was that if she left, William would be in danger, and she didn't wish for that, but then again, if she stayed, she would be the one in danger.Taking a deep breath, she intoned. “Mr. Khan, I don't know if you remember me.”“I am well aware of your identity, Miss Smith.”“Great, so you understand that I am not someone that you can just chase away as you please.”“Miss Smith, it is best you excuse us. The discussion myself and Mister Belmont are about to have would be best done with some privacy.”“I see.” Victoria glanced at William who nodded, letting her know it was okay to leave.Faced with no other choice, Victoria ended up taking her leave while William remained.Silence persisted for a few seconds before William decided to break the ice with a question.“I just want to know one thing. Did you have a hand in what happened to your father?... I have reason to believe that.”The

Snape never expected that he would not even have a chance to fight back.He was killed by his opponent in a mere second!“You are too weak!” William sneered coldly as he flung him away as if he were throwing a piece of trash.He said it in a low voice, but his words were as loud as thunder in the ears of the middle-aged Omar.Omar had seen countless powerful men in his life but he had never seen a cultivator at the sixth stage killed so quickly that he didn't even get a chance to fight back!He died even worse than a chicken!The whole process was so swift that Omar wasn't even able to be of any use.He stared at William in horror as he thought to himself. “Don't tell me this bastard has long since surpassed the sixth stage?’In the cultivation world, all cultivators went through stages, with each stage providing them with an exponential boost in power.The first ten stages were considered the toughest to get through, and due to the sparse spiritual energy in the current world, very f
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates A miserable defeat
Although it was only one move, Omar was now completely certain that his opponent was very powerful.William must have at least reached the ninth stage!For a while none made a move, allowing Omar to stare at William with a terrified look in his eyes.His hand was trembling and he could feel that his hand hand had gone almost completely numb.A trace of fear flashed across his eyes as he said. “Just who exactly are you?”There was no way that the young man before him was an ordinary man.The fact that he had saved Zayn was already an outlier.Following that, his feats left an indelible mark in Omar's mind, letting him know that he had made a horrible mistake in his manner of approach.‘How could someone so young possibly reach the ninth stage?’The only explanation for such an incredible feat was that the young man before him was a martial arts genius who had begun cultivating since young, which allowed him to reach the ninth stage. Just then, William took a step forward and vanished,
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Between a rock and a hard place
William swiftly found himself stuck between a rock and a hard place as he was attacked on two fronts.On one end were armed guards, all of whom were cultivators and carried guns loaded with spiritual bullets, and on the other end was Omar, who had decided to launch a final attack in a bid to ensure mutual destruction. William didn't dare to underestimate either of the attacks as he understood that a simple mistake was enough to make a great giant.For him, he couldn't risk dying, not yet… not when there was much to do.And so, he acted with the thought of preservation at the forefront.He swiftly grabbed Omar, evading his attack, and then used him as a shield to avoid the incoming bullets.Omar didn't even get a chance to cry out as he was riddled with holes, turning him into cheese in an instant.And so, he lost his life.William thought the armed guards would stop but he couldn't have been more wrong as they increased their firing rate, completely destroying Omar's body, making sur

Finding the Fang
Uncle Link sneered at William and asked coldly, “If Mr. Belmont was convinced that this Prayer Bead was not the real deal, would you be so kind as to show us the real Dharma Artifacts?”“The real Dharma Artifact?”William glared at him and then said calmly, “The real Dharma Artifacts were things such as the Flying Sword and Dharma Treasures. One could use them to summon clouds and thunder among many other magical powers. This bead can only distract people when they lay the first sight on it. Other than that, it is practically useless,”Uncle Link laughed scornfully and then said, “Are you kidding me? Those are legends; they don’t exist in real life.“But the magical power of this Prayer Bead was real. You had it completely wrong.”“I think Mr. Belmont’s claim is exaggerated.” A mocking expression appeared on Uncle Link’s face.He was just one step away from calling the doctor a liar.“Is that so?” William was unfazed by the accusation.He pointed to deft fingers at the bead and sudden
Going through the Third Lord's collection
William chuckled upon hearing Cecilia's words. “I had no idea that I was interesting enough for a woman of your caliber to do such a deep dive.”“Well, you are,” Cecilia admitted. Aware that William was truly an enigma with much to offer, Cecilia knew for a fact that William was a person she had to befriend.After the two left the hall, they were greeted by an old man.“This is Uncle Link, my Grandpa's right-hand man. He is going to show us the items being put on auction before it starts.” Cecilia said with a smile.“Thank you for the introduction, Missy. This way, please.” The old man was dressed in a sleek and meticulously ironed suit.His tempered and composed demeanor resembled that of a butler from an English Household.” I have heard that Perry had offended our guest, that lad deserves the punishment. ”The old man talked as he led the way, all the while, he didn’t look at William even once.As the most trusted advisor of the Lancaster household, Uncle Link was one of if not the
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
