The Almighty God of War Returns Celeste Ainsworth
Of course, Elijah knew that his work wasn't done yet as he got Larry and Clement to confess the truth behind Harrison's death as well as letting him know where they had kept his family members.Elijah had them rescued while he got the White Tiger King to come and pick up Larry and Clement for trial.Though annoyed that Elijah had turned him into a subordinate, the White Tiger King had to admit that Elijah was pretty good when it came to resolving such complicated matters.It didn't take long for the news of Harrison's suicide to be taken down and the real news shared of what had truly happened.By then, those companies that had removed their funding from Atlas couldn't help but regret acting hastily.Now, there was no medicine for regret as Atlas completely banned them, ensuring that they would never work together on future projects.Elijah returned home to reunite with his wife and child, both of whom were more than happy to have him back with them.That night, the trio slept in the
The Almighty God of War Returns Invitation to a get-together
Celeste took a deep breath to calm her excited nerves as she understood that rushing things wouldn't be smart.She needed to take things slowly if she wanted to meet with the King of the North once again.Also, though she claimed she was sure of Elijah's identity, that was only 99% assurance.If there was even the slightest chance that Elijah wasn't the War God, she needed to prove it.And so, she made a decision.“I'd like to host a party.”The butler accompanying her paused, rather confused by the sudden decision. “May I ask what we will be celebrating, young Miss?”“Does there need to be a theme?” Celeste asked in mild annoyance.The butler, though unwilling to offend her, replied. “Indeed. It would help the planners while they carry out decorations and the like.”“I see.” Realizing that he had a point, Celeste intoned. “Fine then, I'd like to host a small get-together with old friends from school.”The reason she made this decision was simple.Elijah Silva was married to Alice Wes
The Almighty God of War Returns Trouble seekers
Alice didn't immediately recognize the lady approaching causing her to inquire. “I'm sorry, do I know you?”“Don't tell me you have forgotten me.” The lady said in forced enthusiasm prompting Alice to respond.“I'm sorry, not really.”“Oh my days, I guess that's what happens when a woman has to experience hardship, she starts to forget.” The lady said.Even though she tried to play it off as a casual statement, it was easy to guess that she was taking a subtle jab at Alice.“It's me, Luna Sarabia.”Alice paused, taking the time to sift through her memory before she happened upon any recollection of Luna, and in truth, it wasn't pretty.Even though she was from a prestigious family, Luna was known among several circles as a promiscuous woman who was willing to do anything as long as she got paid.There was even an incident that occurred between her and four other students that nearly got her expelled, if not that her family stepped in.After that, she was forced to withdraw and finish
The Almighty God of War Returns Do as you please
“Oh come on,” Luna said in a condescending tone. “He doesn't even look like he can afford decent clothes for himself, yet you think that the man you call your husband would be able to get clothes for you?”Alice rolled her eyes as she retorted. “I don't believe that is any of your concern, Luna. Perhaps you should focus on your husband and stop looking at other people's husbands.”“How dare you!” Luna glared at her. “I'm only trying to help, but since you think you have it all figured out, then don't blame me if you end up getting humiliated later on.”“I wouldn't dream of it,” Alice said.As she turned to leave with Elijah, Kendrick spoke up. “I don't believe I asked you to leave. We are still talking.”Alice was about to lash out at him when Elijah placed a hand on her shoulder.It seemed Kendrick and Luna had taken his silence for weakness and it was time to correct that misconception.“I don't believe we need your permission to do as we want.” “Did I ask for your opinion, mongrel
The Almighty God of War Returns Beaten like a dog
As the commotion reached its peak, with customers in the store taking out their phones to record the scene while the security guards surrounded Elijah to ensure he wouldn't run away, the store manager soon arrived.There was no way she could ignore what was happening, considering it had escalated to such an extent.She'd already been informed of the situation by the salesperson who had approached Luna and Kendrick; hence, her view of the situation was skewed against Elijah and Alice.“Mr. Vaughn.” She said as she approached Kendrick.Kendrick glared at her. “What do you want?”“My name is Louisa, I'm the store manager.”“Oh, so you are the one in charge. Don't think you can escape what has happened here today. Velvet Fashions would have to explain why they allow hooligans to enter their store!”“Apologies sir, it wasn't our intention for such a thing to happen.”“Hmmph, tell that to my lawyer. You guys are going to pay for my medical bills!”“No sir, please be merciful.” Kendrick did
The Almighty God of War Returns An interesting turn of events
Kendrick was beaten so much to the point that he didn't even dare to utter a sound.Only then did Harvey leave him be, shifting his attention to Elijah and Alice, both of whom had witnessed his brutality.Meanwhile, Louisa wished to say something only for Harvey to glare in her direction, shutting her up instantly.“Mr. Vaughn, you came rather quickly.” Elijah intoned with Harvey trembling as he heard his voice.Taking a few steps forward, everyone thought that Harvey intended to dish out the same level of violence he'd given to Kendrick, to Elijah.So imagine their surprise when he dropped to his knees and bowed to Elijah and Alice.Everyone in the boutique was dumbfounded, especially Luna.After being married to Kendrick for so long, how could she not know Harvey?He was a no-nonsense individual that was remarkably arrogant.Even Kendrick's father, who was his elder brother and head of the Vaughn family, didn't dare to force Harvey to his knees.Yet on this day, Harvey Vaughn was kn
The Almighty God of War Returns An impulsive young miss
Velvet Fashions was one of the many brands owned by the Ainsworth estate.Unlike most other families that had family companies, the Ainsworths didn't have that.As they were a noble house that had grown their wealth to an unimaginable degree during the monarchic era of Albion, they saw no reason to create a company.Instead, they busied themselves with investing in various brands and making them their own; that way, they wouldn't have to go through the stress of building a particular brand from scratch.So far, the Ainsworth family owned several brands in several different sectors, each one worth at least ten million dollars.Altogether, it was estimated that if they were to merge all the brands they owned, the net worth of the merged company would be closing in on ten billion dollars!In any case, as the heiress of the Ainsworth estate, Celeste hardly bothered with the brands they owned, only taking action in severe cases.But when she received a report of the situation in Velvet, sh
The Almighty God of War Returns Celeste's probing
Silence reigned for a few seconds after Alice asked the question plaguing for so long with Celeste meeting her gaze calmly.Just as she felt like she had struck a nerve, Celeste spoke up, chuckling in amusement as she replied. “Do you think I have an ulterior motive?”“... Do you not?” Alice asked, feeling skeptical.Celeste beamed. “Well, it might seem that way but I promise that it's nothing like that.”“Then, why?”“Well, I've always admired you. You're a genius and I would like to build a relationship with you.”“You wish to build a relationship with me?”“Of course,” Celeste said. “I mean, you were able to attract investments from Jeffery Felton and Gilbert Strong, two powerhouses in the corporate world. So naturally, I'd like to get in on whatever they saw.”“Oh,” Alice muttered, a trace of disappointment welling up within her.Even though she had expected that Celeste wasn't acting all friendly for no reason, she didn't realize it was for such a reason.But then again, it was b

No sleep for the wicked
Alice was really worried.In the afternoon, Olivia had said that her memory was failing her because she was getting old.She had even comforted Olivia then. But forgetting the same thing twice within a day was not a good sign.If she was forgetful because she was exhausted, it wouldn’t be too bad. But if it was because of a disease like senile dementia… it would be terrible!Thus, Alice felt that it was better to arrange a full body checkup for Olivia right away, in case there was really something wrong with her.Since the medical expert, Rex was still around, she could help look at Olivia’s condition as well.Olivia chuckled wryly and quickly refused, “Nah, I’m fine! I’m just… too worried about your father at work, and it’s all that’s been on my mind lately, so I keep forgetting what I have to do. I’m perfectly fine. Don’t worry!”Alice persuaded her a few more times, but Olivia firmly said that there was nothing wrong with her health.Only then did Alice give up for the time being.
Calling at the wrong time
Mordred actually called at such a juncture. No matter how bold Olivia was, she wouldn’t dare to answer at this moment!After ten seconds or so, Mordred called again.Olivia still chose to decline the call. At the same time, her heart was beating wildly.She cursed Mordred in her heart.When she was holding onto Claire’s hand and urging him just now, he didn’t rush over and treated her with an extremely hostile attitude. Now that the situation had changed drastically, Mordred actually called. Is he trying to get me killed?!After declining his calls twice in a row, she reckoned that he must have realized something and didn’t call again.Elijah was well aware, so he sneered and deliberately asked, “Who called? Olivia, why didn’t you pick up?”Olivia lowered her head, not daring to look at him at all. She said guiltily, “Oh, it’s nothing. It’s just harassment calls! I keep getting telemarketing calls from real estate agents and promoters. It’s really annoying!”“Oh, really? That’s really
Sudden arrival
While talking to Claire, she looked around and began to get restless and uneasy.She had been waiting here for several minutes, and she was puzzled as to why Mordred hadn’t shown up yet.Perhaps because she had a guilty conscience, she was now feeling incredibly uncomfortable, as if there were eyes on her back.Since Mordred hadn’t appeared yet, she gradually began to feel uncertain, and she even had a vague, ominous hunch.Claire stood in place for a long time. Seeing that Olivia wasn’t moving, she was confused and raised her head to ask, “Grandma, why aren’t we leaving yet?”“What are you rushing me for?! Can’t you see I’m waiting for a car?” Olivia suddenly snapped angrily.Claire’s body immediately stiffened, startled by the sudden rebuke, and tears instantly appeared in her large eyes. She wanted to cry, but she didn’t dare to.Olivia wasn’t in the mood to pay attention to Claire. After waiting for nearly ten more minutes, she couldn’t help taking out her phone to call Mordred ag
A wicked grandmother
Seeing how Olivia was behaving, Mordred snorted coldly and said in displeasure, “Don’t forget. I’m not asking for your opinion. I’m demanding you do what I say! Otherwise, you can rot in here. Remember, if you don’t hand over Elijah Silva’s daughter to me by six o’clock tomorrow night, I will make you disappear forever.”With that, he threw a card with only a phone number on it to Olivia. “That’s my phone number. Call me once you’ve thought it over and made up your mind!”Then Mordred turned around to leave.The thin card fluttered in the air before floating down and landing on the ground.Olivia thought about it but nevertheless gritted her teeth, bent over to pick up the card, and squeezed in her hand.At this moment, she felt extremely conflicted.If she really took Claire out of the kindergarten and handed her to him, she really didn’t dare to guarantee that the man would let Claire go in the end.The reason was that he bore a grudge against Elijah for killing his son, and after s
An unscrupulous villain
If not for Elijah crushing Lincoln’s calves, how could Marc have faced amputation and jumped to his death as a result?The culprit was Elijah!So after identifying his target, he immediately began to investigate the situation around Elijah.He then looked at two people around Elijah.Olivia was an important tool.Hence the reason he captured her.“What do you want from me?” Olivia asked worried.“No need to be scared, I'm actually your friend.”“What are you talking about?”“I'm aware of your hatred towards Elijah Silva. So I brought you here so we could work together to kill him. What do you think?”Olivia hesitated, unsure if she could trust Mordred.“How can I trust you?” She asked to which Mordred replied.“The fucking bastard killed my son and now I want revenge!” Olivia gasped as she realized that he had a blood feud with Elijah.Such things couldn't be resolved by discussion.Only by spilling blood could it be handled. “We do share a common goal to kill Elijah, but I think yo

His only purpose
Soon, the news of Lincoln’s death immediately spread throughout Crystal Falls.The celebrities and upper-class circle were definitely no strangers to Lincoln’s name.After all, he had been a direct descendant of the Abnomars, a top family, and also the most valued scion.Almost everyone knew that he had had a high possibility of being directly appointed as the next helmsman of the family. Within Crystal Falls, he had been the top scion whom no one had dared to provoke at all.Yet such a famous big shot had died just like that!“What’s going on? I heard that Lincoln Abnomar committed suicide by jumping off a building in the hospital. What happened?”“We don’t even know why he was in the hospital, so how could we possibly know how he died?”“Hey, speaking of which, I do know a little bit of inside information! I heard that just two days ago, the Ainsworth heiress suddenly went to the Abnomars’ place together. I heard that there seemed to have been some kind of conflict. After those peop

“Son, you… quickly come here. If you want to enjoy the scenery, I’ll accompany you to go outside and watch the scenery every day once you recover, okay?” While speaking in a mellow tone, Mordred slowly approached Lincoln.Mordred sneered. “Once I recover? Now that things have come to this, you’re still lying to me! I heard everything the doctor just said to you! The doctor said that my only option is to get an amputation immediately, or I’ll die, right? Now, you’re thinking about how to tell me about the amputation, right? You’re a liar! What else can you do other than lie to me?!”The more he spoke, the more agitated he got, and toward the end, he was hollering.Mordred’s heart twitched. When he saw his son being in pain and agony, there was nothing else he could do except to comfort and deceive him.“Son, you must have misheard just now. The doctor told me that there’s still hope for you! Don’t worry. No matter what, I will bring in the best doctors to heal your legs! When the time
Only one option left for survival
Hearing the loud commotion coming from the ward, the few nurses outside didn’t have the slightest trace of surprise in their eyes because they had already become accustomed to it over the past few days.At this moment, a doctor in a white coat walked over, knocked on the open door, and said to Mordred, “Mr. Abnomar, I have something to discuss with you. Please come out.”Mordred walked out the door and closed it. “What’s the matter?”The doctor let out a long sigh and said with a grave expression, “I have to inform you that the injuries on Lincoln’s legs are extremely serious, and the best option for him now is amputation. But… In short, there’s a severe infection in his legs, and his wounds have already become red, swollen, and inflamed. There are also signs of ulceration, and there has been necrosis in many tissues. No amount of antibiotics will help now.“Hence, we can’t continue to delay any longer. We have to carry out the amputation of his legs immediately to save his life. Othe
