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

“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
Paying gratitude
Not far away, after the incident that happened a few hours ago, Maxwell had a few things to settle in the city so he stayed back. At this time, he was having lunch at an expensive hotel when he received a call.Right after, his expression darkened. He clenched his fist tightly and stood up.“What did you just say? Someone impersonating my son and using the military to run scandals?” He asked, and when he received confirmation and also the fact that it was August Reed who found this man, his heart trembled.“Damn it!” He cursed before rushing out of the restaurant to his car. His escorts were already waiting around, so when they saw him, they became alerted to follow his lead.“Drive to Style Haven clothing store. I don't care how you do it, make sure you arrive there in ten minutes.” He said to the chauffeur before hopping into the car.Immediately after, the chauffeur sped off while several vehicles followed behind him in the convoy heading in that direction.…Back at the store, the
Struck stiff
August narrowed his gaze on them as he caught a whiff of something. Their aura, the way the dress and the quality of their military attire had given it up already. It was all cheap and fake.These men were disguising to be in the military but to what gain? Then his gaze shifted to Julian and at once he could tell he wasn't Maxwell's son. He was just using the term to either impress this woman close to him or he was using this to scam others.This made him smile, but then the men in military attire had already walked over to where he was intending to break their legs. “Punk, how dare you disrespect our young master? It seems you have been itching to die, and we will grant it for you. Go on your knees now and let us break your legs willingly, or we will do it by force.” One of them who had bulging muscles and was three times August's size, spoke as he looked down at him.August had to look all the way up before he met his eyes but then, that didn't change anything.“Are you worthy to
