August gave her a knowing smile as he had already predicted such an outcome. That was the main reason why he called both of them to ask such a question directly.

He knew Emily was smart, and through her eyes, he could see she was the type that wished to flee to safety right after. She wouldn’t want to face charges for what she had done.

On the other hand, Charlotte was a sacred woman. She wasn’t a vicious type and he could tell. At any moment from now, she might come to confess. Just as the thought crossed his mind, the door came open and Charlotte walked in crying.

Before they knew it, she went on her knees and started pleading.

“I would rather not do this. I would rather not partake in such a thing. Emily threatened me to help her, or she was going to send people after my family. Please forgive me. I didn’t mean to.” She hadn’t gone to the exact point, but it was already evident what she was referring to.

“Where is Emily?” August asked instead, as that was what he was interested i

  • He bribed you?

    “I….” Jacob stuttered, looking lost. Subconsciously, he stepped out of the way as it wasn't like he could take the first option.August smiled and with that, he took Caroline and left. Everyone stared at the scene, and it felt like something had sealed their mouths. Actually, it was August aura and now that he left, everything was back to normal.“What's going on, Jacob? What happened outside?” Lena was the first to ask, looking curious.“Can someone tell me how and why August was able to pay for our meals? The total of this is almost fifty thousand dollars. Can someone like him afford such a thing?”“Fifty thousand dollars?” Jacob's eyes widened as though they would fall out of their sockets. Inside that envelope, there were a hundred and fifty thousand more. That was one quarter of his annual salary, and yet, a waitress had gotten it for free.He looked at the waitress as she left the room, and the urge to snatch it away grew to its peak inside him.“Jacob, what's wrong?” Yara asked

  • Take this and leave town

    Both of them walked out of the hotel completely and stood around the parking lot just behind Jacob's car. August remained calm as bs watched how he reached for his car, picked up something before returning to where he was.By the time he did, August saw that he was holding an envelope. Curious about what it was, Jacob spoke.“Take this. There is about two hundred thousand dollars in there. Leave town, start a business, and stay as far as you can. Caroline is too good for you. I don't think a man like you deserves her.” He said with a straight face, feeling he had given August an outstanding privilege.Aside from sucking up to his wife and stealing, there was no way August could make money. By taking this load of cash and leaving the city, he would be saving himself some face, and also others wouldn't keep looking down on him. Those were Jacob's thoughts. As for August, he was stunned. He knew Jacob was up to something, but never had he predicted that this would be it. Did he dare b

  • Can you control him?

    “Ooh, now I remember, while he was still a cripple, he do steal money from her. We heard the news. It’s so sad that I forgot. Now that I've seen your pathetic face, I can't help but remember.” Tara stared off with a smile before she pointed at August.“Yes, that's the face of a thief. Funny of you to call my hand a filth earlier when you are even worse. Why haven't you been arrested? Tell me, or did you bewitch Caroline?” Her gaze shifted to Caroline.“Yara, stop it. If you keep insulting my husband like that, I am going to leave.” Caroline's face darkened, and she was about to explode in anger. She didn't know how they got such news, but it was of no concern to them.August did take money from her, but it was to treat his legs and besides, with how he had helped her, she would forever owe him a favor but not the other way around“Wake up to reality Caroline. Accept the bitter truth. Your husband is a penniless man who has nothing to offer. I am very sure that you are the one who boug

  • Suck up to their wives

    “City View Inn, that's the hotel we are heading to,” Caroline said to August as soon as they got into the car.“Okay.” August smiled and quickly floored the gas pedal, driving off in that direction. They had just a few minutes left, so he would rather not make her feel distressed and start panicking.….Meanwhile at the hotel, inside a luxurious apartment, more than ten people were seated around a table. Each of them looked dignified, polished in an expensive lifestyle and what was more, the tension in the air was calm and enjoyable.However, everything seemed to change as a woman clad in all black whose name was Lena brought up a question.“Where is Caroline? Has anyone seen or heard of her?” She asked looking worried, but her next words caused almost everyone to start laughing. “Or would she bring up an excuse saying she is stuck taking care of her cripple husband? I wonder if she likes being tied down to such a nut job.”She never had a good impression of Caroline even when they w

  • You looking dashing

    “What? He is dead?” Shadows' eyes widened. The reason being, for the little time he talked to Casper Zhou, he was able to tell that he was a tricky kind of person. He had been using exploding humans to try to kill August and what's more, he had so many things that were poisonous to the cultivators.Physically, it wasn't like he could take August on, but what he was capable of was quite scary.“Yes. And I think the council won't take this lying down. Besides, they are the reason I came to this country. I feel they might send people who are more deadly to either me or my wife. I can't guarantee you will survive staying with me, but I can protect you. Furthermore, I won't let you die.” August revealed.Anyone could be the enemy and be used against him. He wasn't scared, but he wouldn't want people around him to die. Besides, David was around, he could ask him to leave all his mission at hand and guard Caroline at all times, so Shadow could leave and not feel pressure.“It is an honor t

  • You all are dismissed

    “Hello master, we are done sending everyone back to their houses. Is there something else you want us to do?” Alpha one's voice came from the other side of the phone.August smiled and relaxed back in the driver's seat. While strapping his seat belt on, he replied.“That's all for now. You can leave Oakdale in the meantime. I'll contact you as soon as I need your help. It won't be long.” He replied.“Does that mean you will be going back to the dragon regiment? Though we retired after you left, we couldn't tolerate just anyone else's leadership. However, if you are going back, we will come with you. We owe you our lives and any path you walk, we shall follow.” Alpha one replied with so much sincerity in his voice.August was touched but didn't convey his emotions. He didn't see them as comrades but as brothers instead. The bond and connection he had with them was far more than just a master and a subordinate kind.“Thank you, Alpha one. We will be in touch.” August said, and with that
