"Melissa you had only one job, which was to get the invitation and get yourself and your family back to their place."

"But instead you had your gold digger of a husband return from self-exile and beat up the all-influential Lord George and his son Arnold Lucas."

"Why is that?"

"Tell me cousin…why should we ever allow you, your mom and your so-called daughter back into the Stevens family."

"You have brought nothing but shame and reproach to us."

"You should be on your knees begging with the Invitation in your hand but there you are without the invitation."

"You should be ashamed of walking into this villa without that invitation."

Eunice Stevens continued with her disdainful words making Melissa and her daughter almost go down in tears.

"For your information, Lady Megan said that if you don't provide the invitation to the grand general's wedding, you all should consider yourselves kicked out of the Stevens family…forever "

Her last word sent more shivers down the spine of Melissa Stevens and her mom.

"You mean like…forever?"

Sophia Stevens immediately asked, her eyebrows furrowed in a mixture of confusion and anxiety.

"Yes, forever!!!"

"You people really have some nerve coming here, especially you Max, after what you have done to Lord George Lucas and his son."

Eunice wasn't taking it lightly with them as she continued embarrassing and humiliating Melissa Stevens.

As she stepped forward to slap Melissa, Max immediately caught her hand in mid-air and knew it backwards causing her to stagger as she almost fell.

"How dare you raise your hand to hit my wife in my presence?"

Max Xanderson asked, his fist clenched in vexation as he made his way towards Eunice, Melissa immediately held him back.

"Go on, you can humiliate me all you want, but know this…"

"Know what?"

"What do you want to say, Melissa?"

The cold and disdainful voice of Logan Stevens, one of her uncles broke through, he had been behind them the whole time.

"Melissa, you should be on your knees begging for mercy."

"You should also know that since you just ruined our only opportunity to get into the grand general's wedding, not only will you people be expelled from the Stevens family permanently, but even the home you live in currently will be reclaimed."

Logan's voice was laced with a mixture of disdain and venom.

At this point, Mrs Sophia and Melissa couldn't take it anymore as tears welled down their eyes slowly.

Max Xanderson couldn't take it anymore, his gaze immediately landed on Logan, his fist clenched tightly.

"It's enough Mr Logan, you are hurting my wife, my daughter and Mrs Sophia."

His voice was laced with authority as he stared intently into the eyes of Mr Logan and Eunice.

"Oh see who is back, it's the gold digger."

"I can't believe those guards at the gate allowed a low-life dog into our Villa."

"You know what, Max I will pardon you and pretend that you never stood up to me if you will kneel before me now and bark like a dog."

"C'mon, I'm waiting for that bark!"

Mr Logan spoke with great determination and anticipation in his eyes.

"Do it or else when I'm done throwing you all out of that slummy house, I will sell your daughter, Chloe to Lord Mason, I hear his brothel business needs fresh blood."

His voice was laced with humiliation and disdain.

Max couldn't take it anymore, he had just killed Alice Stevens because of his daughter and he wouldn't mind killing another member of the Stevens family for Chloe's sake.

Max Xanderson walked slowly towards Logan, he had his fist clenched together to connect a collateral damage blow to Logan's sorry face.

"What is that animal doing in my villa?"

"Who the hell let you in here?"

The detached voice of Lady Megan Stevens immediately interrupted Max's plan.

"How did you get in here…"

"After all you have done!"

"You are the reason why Melissa Stevens is going through all this pain."

"And now you have caused this great family more trouble!"

"Why did you hit Lord Lucas and his son?!"

"You have really ruined us all!"

Lady Megan Stevens yelled as she hurriedly heaved her walking stick at Max Xanderson, who immediately swiped his left hand and the walking stick landed on Logan's bald head making him wince in pain.

"You will definitely pay for all the atrocities you have committed against my family."

"If the Lucas's come looking for your head, I will personally hand you over!"

Lady Megan Stevens continued venting as she stared lecherously at Max Xanderson, Melissa, Chloe and Mrs Sophia Stevens.

"At least I'm not the one who stole a company that doesn't belong to me and gave it to my eldest son."

Max Xanderson's voice was barely above whispers, but loud enough for everyone to hear.

"What was that?!"

"How dare you imbecile talk to me that way?!"

"Have you forgotten where you stand and before whom you are standing?!"

"What do you know about the Walters Tech cooperation?!"

Lady Megan Stevens asked as she was already infuriated, she stared disdainfully at Max Xanderson for exposing her.

The Walters Tech Cooperation, formerly called the Walters Enterprise, was Melissa's father's start-up company before he died.

Max Xanderson had used his influence in the army to help the Walters Enterprise achieve some of its greatest feats, the company moving from nothing to almost a trillion-dollar valuation company under his secret watch.

He had been angry since he heard that Lady Megan and Lord Dylan Stevens had seized the Walters Enterprise and had renamed it and given it to their eldest son, Ethan Stevens.

"I know quite a lot to say that it doesn't belong to you, Lady Megan!"

"Who do you think built that enterprise from nothing to almost a trillion-dollar valuation company?!"

Max Xanderson's questions really got everyone in the vestibule shocked and wondering.

"Enough!!!"

Lady Megan Stevens screamed at the top of her voice.

"I will not have you come into my home and turn my people against me."

"Guards!"

"Go to that slum that Melissa is living in, throw her things out and lock it up immediately since she failed to provide us with the invitation to the grand general's wedding."

"Stop!"

Melissa yelled immediately as she pulled out the VIP invitation card from her handbag.

"Grandma, here is the Stevens family invitation to the grand general's wedding."

Her voice was mellifluous as she handed over the invitation to Lady Megan Stevens.

Everyone was shocked down to their bone marrow as they wondered how on earth did she get the invitation.

"How did she get an invitation?"

"We were told Arnold Lucas didn't even get a chance to touch her before his balls were crushed mercilessly."

"How is this even possible?"

Eunice Stevens asked as she walked closer to examine the invitation card.

"Grandma, this invitation is fake!!!"

Eunice Stevens yelled at the top of her voice causing everyone to shudder in bewilderment.

"How dare you come here to deceive us…"

Where are you guys?!”Max Xanderson immediately called out as he stared into the dark living room.“General Cobra Claw…what do we do now?”Jack Oniels asked as he squatted by the side of General Cobra Claw.“Jack Oniels, I really don't know…they were right here when we left and I clearly recall telling Melissa to lock those doors!”“What sorcery is this?!”Max Xanderson asked as he kicked the window next to him and suddenly a well-hidden piece of paper fell off and dropped to the ground.Jack Oniels immediately picked up the paper and gave it to Max Xanderson, the grand general Cobra Claw.Max Xanderson slowly gazed at the paper as he voiced out s

    Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels slowly took a deep breath and just as they turned to look at the man behind them and to their greatest surprise, he was now standing by the cliff edge.The wind from the trees was still making the whole place spooky and scary.Max Xanderson immediately walked closer to the man who was now by the valley edge, “What are you doing by that valley edge?!”“Do you really want to kill yourself?”Max Xanderson asked as he stared at the man who was now threatening to jump off the cliff.“What do you think you are trying to do?!”Jack Oniels immediately asked as he stepped closer to Max Xanderson who was almost closer to the man.“I can't take it anymore, Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels!”“I told you she will be back and I don't want to be another unlucky person added to her kill list!”“Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels, you really don't understand who is it you both are messing with…I can't deal with her!”The man's voice was laced with a mixture of confusion, trepidat

    The dark figure stopped immediately and seemed to grow, its shadow stretching along the walls, twisting and writhing as if alive. The perimeter felt like it was closing in, the air heavy with an unnatural chill.Max Xanderson held his ground, his jaw set and his fists clenched at his sides.Beside him, Jack Oniels’ smirk faltered for the briefest moment before returning with a defiant edge.The man behind them, still kneeling on the ground, clutched at his head and rocked back and forth.“You don’t understand,” he whispered hoarsely. “You’ve brought this on yourselves. She’ll kill us all.”“Shut up,” Jack Oniels snapped, throwing a glare over his shoulder. “You’re not helping.”Max Xanderson ignored them both, his eyes locked on the figure. “You’re good at theatrics,” he said, his voice steady despite the palpable tension. “But I’ve faced monsters before, and you’re no different.”The figure tilted its head, as if considering his words.When it spoke, its voice was layered, as thoug

    Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels stared at the dark shadow as it began to grow and shifting into something beyond scary.Jack Oniels immediately was taken aback, he knew he wasn't supposed to be scared as he and Max Xanderson, the Grand General Cobra had fought most possibly demons and stood a chance.But as the dark figure shape shifted, Jack Oniels immediately swallowed a hard lump.Max Xanderson, the Grand General Cobra Claw, kept his gaze fixed on the dark, shifting form before them.Max Xanderson's jaws was set, and his hands were clenched into fists at his sides.The figure was no longer just a shadow; it was becoming something far more tangible and terrifying, more like something you be seeing in a scary night movie.Tendrils of darkness shot out immediately and coiled like living serpents, and a pair of glowing red eyes began to pierce through its body and tails.Jack Oniels took a step back, his usual now a bit faltering.He immediately swallowed hard, the lump in his throat a t

    The man opened his mouth to respond, but the eerie sound suddenly grew louder, drowning out his words. He froze immediately, his face draining of color as he stared at the shadows. “She’s here,” he whispered, his voice barely audible. “She’s coming.”Max Xanderson immediately stepped forward, his presence commanding and laced with authority States and determination.“Let her come,” he said, his voice low and dangerous. “We’ll be ready.”Jack Oniels immediately smirked, his confidence returning. “Yeah,” he said, cracking his knuckles. “Bring it on.”The man stared at them, his fear now mixed with disbelief. “Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels, you both don’t understand,” he said, his voice trembling. “You can’t fight her. You can’t win.”“Maybe not,” Max Xanderson said, his eyes cold and unyielding. “But we’ll go down fighting.”The haunting sound reached its highest height, and the shadows around the perimeter immediately seemed to shift and twist, as if something—or someone—was about
