CHAPTER 66
More than the physical pain, everything else associated with the slap was what hurt Kevin more.He wanted to shout.He could do more than just shout.But he didn’t want to answer with noise.He responded with silence.Still, Brielle took that silence as weakness. “Stay put like that.”She then ignored him completely and continued to argue with her daughter.Cecilia was looking at Kevin, remembering how he defeated dozens of assassins all by himself, and yet here he was, standing still after getting slapped for no reason.What if he were to fight back and slap her mother just like she slapped him?Cecilia didn’t even want to imagine it happening as it would completely ruin his relationship with her family.Was this why he was bearing it?“Are you hearing what I’m saying?” Brielle snapped her fingers in front of her daughter’s face?“Mom, I’ll give you two choices,” Cecilia said, raising her voice enough to show how annoyed she was. “Either you stay silent for one month and let Kevin ta
CHAPTER 65
Kevin was questioned about his attempt to save the people from the burning bus.She and Orland criticized him very much, whereas Dabby and Rory scolded him, calling it foolishness to risk his life for strangers.On top of that, Brielle asked him about his fight with the thugs on the street.“Don’t drag our image onto the streets,” Brielle said coldly. “If something like this happens ever again, I will punish you appropriately.”“Aren’t you going to punish him now?” Naomi asked innocently. “How will he learn from his mistakes if you don’t punish him?”Brielle smiled as she could see through Naomi’s intentions. “Alright. Then you’ll stay in your room for the entire tomorrow and repent your actions.”“That can’t happen,” Kevin was quick to tell them. “I need to work hard every day if I want to win the challenge!”“Hmph, one day won’t change anything,” Sadia snorted. “Why are you acting like you can actually clear the challenge? Where are you going to earn 43 million dollars from? Are you
CHAPTER 64
Kevin and Cecilia returned home.Her family members were all having a conference meeting in the hall.When Kevin entered with Cecilia, Dabby was the first one to ask him, “Did you ask Draknor Finance for 2 million dollars?”Kevin was surprised that the information already reached his family members. “Did anyone from the company contact you?”“Of course, they did. Not me, but they called my dad,” Dabby blurted. “Do you realize how awkward and uncomfortable he must have felt because he had to talk to the loan sharks?”“We never beg others for money, Kevin,” Rory added with calm pomposity. “You wouldn’t know it because you didn’t grow up here. And in the past three years, you've been busy cleaning toilets.”“Pfft,” Sadia nearly burst into laughter.Even Cecilia looked a bit shocked. But then she also understood why he would take the loan. He had to get the money from somewhere to multiply it and then win the challenge he had made to her mother.“I thought you might actually be up to some
CHAPTER 63
Sariyu Shamus just got home as the sun slipped out of view.She was living in the Shamus Estate, one she had inherited from her father.When she entered the hall, she was surprised to see Jack. He was the last person she expected to see at her home.“What are you doing here?” Sariyu took out her gun immediately.Jack still sat down and was pouring himself a drink. The maids were standing nervously in the background.“I know you learned how to shoot from Dad, but he didn’t teach it to you so you can shoot his son,” Jack said.“His son?” Sariyu frowned. “You’re not his son. You may have the same blood as him, but he always regretted that you were born into this world. You’re nothing but a monster who killed my mom.““I didn’t kill her.”“Cut the bullshit. The flight didn’t magically crash into the sea. You were behind it. You killed not just my mom, but everyone on that flight. Calling you a monster wouldn’t do justice.”“It’s true that I hated your mom because she never considered me
CHAPTER 62
Huggard was sitting at the edge on the rooftop of a skyscraper.He was looking at the setting sun.The last few rays of light dimmed down, and the night of this region officially began.A shadowy figure appeared behind him, dressed in a suit and his body giving off a chilling aura.“I’m sorry, Master Jack. I have no excuses,” Huggard said without even looking back. “Just kill me.”Jack walked over and sat next to Huggard and opened an alcohol bottle made in the 1800s.“Red wine preserved with aura for almost 200 years,” Jack said. “I spent 30 million dollars to buy this one in the ‘swamp’ market.”He drank half of the bottle in one go, and then gasped a little.“This is it,” he grinned. “Normal wine doesn’t even hold a candle to this.”“Is it that good?” Huggard asked.“Yeah,” Jack gave the bottle to him.Huggard took a sip and was quite shocked by it. “I-it’s really strong. Stronger than any drink I tasted.”“Haha, you can drink the rest if you want.”“I can?”“Yes, you can.”“But… I
CHAPTER 61
