Astrid’s statement clearly shocked them, because all this time it was obvious that the woman had always obeyed Old Man Ramon, but today she actually agreed with what her bodyguard said.
On the other hand, Albert curled his lips into a smile. He knew Astrid was not a foolish woman who would keep allowing her family to control her. The reason she had obeyed all this time was because she had no one to protect her.“Smart woman. You made the right decision,” Albert said, still sLatest Chapter

Hitosi and Ryu felt a terrifying pressure crashing down upon their bodies. The air in the room seemed to transform into an invisible ocean of iron, pressing in from every direction. Cold sweat streamed down their temples as they stared at each other, their faces pale with disbelief.The young man they had just looked down upon... apparently possessed strength far beyond their imagination.Nanase, noticing her uncle starting to have trouble breathing, immediately ran over to Albert. "Albert, stop it. Release them... don't make them any more terrified," she urged hastily.Albert's cold gaze softened slightly. In an instant, the aura pressure filling the room vanished just like that.Hitosi and Ryu immediately drew a long, relieved breath. Their bodies felt weak, as if they had just escaped the gates of death.Without daring to delay, both of them promptly approached Albert and bowed respectfully.Hitosi, with trembling hands, even presented the wooden box containing the Aura Enhancement

Nanase's gaze filled with doubt made Albert smile faintly. The man was aware that the first woman who had managed to shake his heart since he saved her life all those years ago, was still unable to accept the fact that he was the same beggar from ten years ago.Albert sighed softly.With a gentle movement, he shifted Nanase's body from his lap so she would return to sitting on the sofa. After that, the man stood up straight while putting one hand into his pants pocket."Your family seems to have almost arrived," Albert said casually. "Do you want to welcome them yourself, or shall I?"Nanase looked up at him with wide eyes. "You... can even sense their aura from that far away?"Albert slowly leaned down until their faces were only a few centimeters apart. His gaze was calm, yet held a mystery that was difficult to guess."There are still many things about me that you don't know," he whispered softly. The man then lightly tapped the tip of Nanase's nose before standing upright again. "

The arrival of Radnik and Galuh immediately made the atmosphere in the main hall of Rose Villa tense. Nanase and her two loyal bodyguards immediately went on alert.Although the two of them were only at the Eighth Peak Realm, the disciplined aura radiating from their bodies still felt oppressive.Galuh stepped forward first, then bowed respectfully. “Sir, we apologize for arriving late. If we had known from the start that someone was attacking Rose Villa again, we would not have stopped just to check on Nik and Rudas, who were injured,” he said in a low but firm tone.Albert remained sitting comfortably on his sofa, as if the earlier commotion was just a minor disturbance not worth worrying about. “Just ants passing by. No need to make a fuss,” he replied lightly. However, his gaze quickly turned serious. “How are Nik and Rudas?”Galuh let out a soft sigh before answering. “Nik suffered a fairly severe rib fracture. It will likely take several mon

Florenscia stepped into her private villa with a pale face and empty eyes. Usually, the young lady of the noble family walked with graceful poise, her chin held high, as if the world lay beneath her feet. But this time was different.The expensive dress clinging to her body looked disheveled, while her shoulders kept trembling as she fought back her emotions.Her original goal had been simple—to win Albert Yanaga’s heart, become the great lady of the Yanaga family, and enjoy all the privileges possessed by the most powerful man.However, the more she tried to get closer, the farther Albert seemed from her. Not once had the man ever shown any interest.“Sniff... sniff... why did it have to turn out like this...,” Florenscia suddenly said.The tears she had been holding back finally fell all at once. Her sobs broke out, filling the villa hall and immediately sending the servants into a panic as they looked at one another in confusion.<

Kuro shot forward without the slightest hesitation, his body turning into a black shadow that split through the air, immediately charging at Arkana with such dense murderous intent.However, Arkana did not stand still either. Even though his body was slightly suppressed by Junora’s artifact, he still raised his hand and prepared to meet the attack with a counterstrike.Swuzz!Pral!But then, something unexpected happened.Kuro’s body suddenly shattered into pieces in midair before it could even reach Arkana. His form turned into black dust that was instantly swept away by the wind, vanishing without a trace.Junora and the others immediately widened their eyes. A chill ran down their spines. No one saw what had actually happened.That was when... A figure suddenly appeared before them.Albert stood with a sharp gaze, his face filled with a suffocating cold aura. A terrifying wave of aura instantly erupted from h

Rini ran hurriedly down the villa corridor, her face filled with anxiety. She was still slightly breathless when she finally found Albert sitting casually on the bedroom balcony.The man was enjoying a cup of hot coffee while calmly smoking a cigarette, as if the world were not in trouble.“Sir… Nik and Rudas are said to be seriously injured!” Rini said anxiously.Albert didn’t even look surprised. With a calm expression, he replied flatly, “I already know. The people who hurt them are already at the gate.”Rini immediately frowned. “If you already knew, why didn’t you do anything?” she asked gently but with concern. “After all, they are your subordinates.”Albert exhaled a stream of smoke slowly before putting out the cigarette in the ashtray. After that, he gently pulled Rini closer until she was sitting on his lap. “If I had to step in and solve every problem myself... then when would they grow?”“But, Sir...” Rini’s voice wea
