Bianca's body was slipping toward the floor when Jason swiftly caught her.

"Darling, are you okay?" He quickly checked Bianca's pulse, his expression filled with serious concern.

The Grey family immediately rushed toward their daughter to help her.

"Bianca! Wake up!" Chloe, Bianca's mother, shouted at the top of her voice in a panic, falling to her knees to check on her daughter.

"Don't worry, Mom. She will be fine." Jason tried to console Chloe before Joel, Bianca's father, snapped at him.

"Rubbish! What did you do to my daughter?!"

Jason was lost. He didn't understand what Joel meant by his question.

"Wasn't it after you held her hand that she passed out? What did you do to her?!" Chloe barked, glaring at Jason.

"I did nothing to her, Mom. But don't worry, I will take care of it," Jason said, trying to persuade the angry parents.

"Nonsense! Take care of what?! Are you a doctor or something?!"

"Oh! You mean you want to make the matter worse?! You ghost!"

Joel quickly pushed Jason aside to carry his daughter.

"To the hospital! Quickly!" Joel screamed at his wife.

"That might be too late, Dad. I will call for an ambulance." Jason took out his phone to make a call.

However, none of the Grey family members gave a damn about whatever Jason was saying.

Joel was about to carry his daughter out of the hall when the sound of an ambulance siren was heard.

A group of health professionals rushed into the hall with a gurney and spoke to the Grey family.

"We are here on the orders of the God of War to take care of Miss Grey. Allow us to do our job."

Before Chloe and Joel could react, Bianca was already placed on the gurney, and they exited the hall right away.

The ambulance left the Imperial Crown Hotel, and the Grey family followed behind.

Meanwhile, in the VIP suite, Andre had a scowl on his face as he finished reviewing the partnership contract.

Bernard was secretly praying for good news when he heard the old man clear his throat and speak.

"At no point is your family worthy enough to have a partnership with us. I will only sign this because I want to please my grandson."

Bernard was over the moon. Words could not express how joyful he felt.

He watched as Andre picked up a pen to sign the contract.

Just then, one of the Kim family butlers burst into the suite and fell to his knees before Andre. He was covered in sweat and shivering.

"Mr. Kim! Something terrible has happened!"

Andre frowned as he paused, the pen hovering over the paper, and turned to look at the butler. "What is it? Are you going to say it, or should I get you out of my sight?!"

The butler knew that wasting time was dangerous, so he let it out.

"Serious trouble broke out at the ceremony hall, and Mr. Kim Jr. was severely injured."

Andre rose to his feet immediately, shaking with rage, and screamed at the butler.

"What did you say?! Who dared harm my grandson?!"

Bernard was shocked to hear the news. He knew how much Andre cherished his grandson.

He thought that whoever was bold enough to attack the heir of the Kim family must be tired of living.

"Who do you say harmed Gabriel?!" Andre slapped the butler hard across the face for not answering quickly enough.

The butler pointed toward Bernard. "It's him."

'Huh?'

Bernard's heart skipped a beat as Andre's dangerous eyes darted toward him.

He had been in the VIP suite the entire time; how could he have harmed someone elsewhere?

Bernard's mind was reeling until the butler clarified.

"It was your family's adoptive child, Jason Scott, who caused trouble at the ceremony and harmed Mr. Kim Jr."

'What?!'

Bernard felt his head explode in shock.

He was more confused and restless now than he was when he was first accused.

Jason had died five years ago. Bernard was the one who had pushed him off the rooftop and confirmed he was dead before he was dumped into the sea.

How could he be the one causing trouble at the ceremony hall?

Bernard was nearly losing his mind.

Andre was confused as well. He couldn't understand.

He shifted his piercing gaze from Bernard to the butler and asked, "Are you sure you haven't been drinking again?!"

"No, I'm not hallucinating, Mr. Kim. It is really Jason Scott. He came to take his wife away," the butler answered immediately.

"And you allowed him?!" Andre's fist clenched tightly.

The butler's eyes filled with terror. He didn't know how to explain the gruesome scene in the hall to the old man. Who would dare stand in the path of such a beast?

"Why are you silent?! Don't tell me you all foolishly watched him walk away freely?!"

The butler wished the ground would open up and swallow him whole; he preferred that to the murderous look on Andre's face.

"Speak!" Andre's intimidating voice struck the butler, who answered instantly.

"He was able to escape..."

The butler hadn't finished his sentence when Andre delivered a powerful punch to his stomach, and the man died instantly.

Bernard was soaked with sweat while witnessing the scene before Andre turned to him.

"And you! Didn't you announce that boy's death five years ago?! How come he came to disrupt my grandson's wedding ceremony today?!"

"Ehm..." Words eluded Bernard as he struggled to find what to say.

"Yes, he was dead." The short sentence slipped from Bernard's trembling lips.

Andre's eyes shone more dangerously at Bernard as he yelled at him.

"He was dead five years ago and returned to life today, huh?!"

"Get out of here now and go bring that stupid boy of yours to me to get crippled right before me!"

"Scram! Now!"

Like lightning, Bernard sprinted out of the suite with his heart in his mouth.

    All eyes were immediately riveted on Jason. They saw him as nothing more than a madman at that moment. Chloe and Joel were devastated to hear him make such a bold claim. Bianca was utterly disappointed as well. "Can you hear that, Bianca? Your ghost husband says he's the God of War," Chloe mocked. "How much more useless and senseless can someone be?" Joel issued a serious warning, too. "Do you realize that if this bold claim you've made goes public, you will be as good as dead?" "Do you know the consequences of making such a claim?" "I am the God of War, Dad. I'm being serious," Jason said simply. "That's enough, Jason!" Bianca was furious. She could not bear to watch him continue to embarrass himself. Bianca had considered his previous claim to be a joke, but hearing it again gave her a headache. Jason went silent. He knew it would be difficult for them to believe him and that attempting to prove himself right now would be fruitless. Disappointment was written all over

    The Scott family members scrambled backward in great fear as Jason walked closer to them.They all nearly wet themselves, as Jason’s stare caused their hearts to pause.Whether the person before them was a ghost or a clone, none of them could withstand the powerful aura that surrounded him.Most especially, Timothy and Leah were utterly startled.Jason expected the Scotts to have changed their ways.The discussion he had caught them had made it clear to him that they had only become worse."Why are you all running away instead of executing the plan you have against me?"The Scott family felt disappointed in themselves that Jason had already learned about the plot they had against him."You should hurry up and slaughter me now, because you will never get the opportunity again," Jason urged them.William felt his ego challenged upon hearing that and responded angrily."Rubbish! Just say that you are looking for an easy way to die because you want to escape the trouble you have caused yo

    Timothy’s face darkened further upon hearing that from his son.He glared at him for a while before he hit the nail on the head."Of course, you are Jason's brother, and I know you have had your eyes on Bianca since the first day Jason brought her into this family. But have you asked yourself what the family would benefit from you marrying her?"The raging John suddenly fell into silence as the question hit him."Other than the fantasy of wanting to have your way with your brother's wife, what else was the motivation behind why you want Bianca?"Timothy asked his displeased son again, and the boiling John didn't know why he felt so calm suddenly.He never expected his father to see through his tricks and tactics.John was still in deep silence when his father said to him, "If you have no answers to these questions, I think it is best to explain why Mr. Kim Jr. is more eligible to have Bianca than you are."Without waiting for anything else John had to say, Timothy left him behind and

    The ambulance had just arrived at The First Hospital, and Bianca was rushed inside for urgent medical attention.The Grey family flooded into the hospital reception when Chloe noticed someone following behind them. She turned to see who it was, and it turned out to be Jason.'Haven't I warned this ghost to f*** off?! What is he doing here?!'Her panicked face turned into a deep scowl as she barked at Jason."Yes?! Where are you going?! What have you come here to do?!""Mom, I have come to see my wife. I can't leave her in this condition," Jason answered genuinely.His words were supposed to soften Chloe's heart; instead, they infuriated her further."First, I don't ever want to hear you call me Mom again! And secondly, Bianca was only your wife when you were alive. After you died, she moved on with her life. You have no business with her anymore! So, get out of here now!"Jason understood Chloe's frustration, but it would have been better if she had heard his side of the story, too.J
