Semua Bab When Life Takes A Turn: Bab 491 - Bab 500

Ruby’s feelings had always been largely defined by her vanity, so the fulsome attention immediately made her feel like she was at the height of her life, basking in the adulation reserved for the queen of the world. Even those rich housewives who used to look down on her had come rushing to talk to her without a shred of condescension. How could life be any better by this point?!She had sunken completely into the high of having her vain ego pampered and massaged the moment she lived in a luxury villa. In fact, it was enough to make her forget Zayn’s incident—and all the terror of it—completely.Waine could not contain himself from trying as soon as he saw how much glamor his wife managed to net. He broadcasted similar pictures to his social media account and immediately received a whirlwind of adulations and attention. So many people had come in and voiced their jealousy! So many had invited him for meals and hangouts too, just so they could take a peek at their seven million dollar

Happiness had come to him in such a short notice that even a simple response to it had become baffling. Zayn’s blithe wasted no time climbing up his spine and colonizing his brain in a wild, maddening frenzy; he even started feeling a little lightheaded.Faye watched him staring blankly ahead without any answer and gave a loud harrumph. “What, you don’t want to agree to it? Well, okay. We’ll call this off!”Zayn snapped back to reality and finally answered quickly, “Of course I agree to it! There's no way I would disagree! How could I possibly not agree?!”Faye’s jubilance blossomed into the most beautiful, radiant smile possible on Earth. It even seemed to eclipse everything else under the sun with its sheer brilliance—and Zayn watched, enthralled and completely hypnotized, murmuring under his breath, “God, Fifi. You’re beautiful.”Faye did not hide the glee of hearing him say that, though she did return a bashful “stop it, dummy!” to the mesmerized man.It was the happiest day i

“Please, sir, these are two braindead morons you’re looking at! Please don’t take their words seriously!” Gordon pleaded.Zayn waved him off dismissively, hinting that he did not care about whatever they say.He turned to Vulcan and began, “Alright, Vulcan. Please just drop the pretense, okay? I can sense the rising vitality from you. At least half of your strength has recovered, isn’t it?”Vulcan sputtered hard. He looked very much closer to the dead than to the living. “I don’t understand what you’re saying, man. What, you don’t know how hard you hit? I’m literally about to die here. Look, Zayn, your mother and I go way back, so can you please show much needed mercy on the sake of our relationship? I promise to reward you handsomely.”“Oh? How handsomely, exactly?” Zayn said, cocking his brow in apparent interest.A glimmer of hope lit up in Vulcan’s eyes. He coughed again, before answering, “How about 150 million dollars? I’ll transfer the amount to your bank account the moment

Mr. Hyde was the underworld king of Waltz City and the head honcho of their craft, so it was no exaggeration to call him a legend. How could a man like Mr. Hyde be serving Zayn? They could not begin to imagine how influential Zayn truly was. While they were learning about him, Zayn began to interrogate Vulcan. “You may justify yourself now and tell me what you know. If I’m in a good mood, I may consider letting you off,” he said. Vulcan was lying against the wall. Zayn had broken his spine, paralyzing him. He could not move even if he wanted to. In addition, he had been severely injured when Zayn kicked him, so it was impossible for him to try to flee again. On top of all that, Zayn was now keeping a watchful eye on him, so escaping would be no easy feat, even if he had wings. “Oh, still keeping your trap shut? Not scared of dying now, are you? Alright then, maybe some torture will put you at ease.” And with that, Zayn was about ready to get down to business. Sensing Zayn’s m

If Vulcan had tried this on an ordinary person, he would easily have gotten away with his bluff. However, Zayn was an intelligent man who had experienced many things in life and would never allow himself to be fooled so simply. He said, “Vulcan, you’re still trying to deceive me. You want me to be intimidated.”Vulcan’s eyes glistened. He shook his head and said, “You’re far too suspicious. I’ve already told you so much, yet you still don’t believe me.”Zayn said, “You refuse to repent until the very end, I see. Do you still think that you can trick me at this point? You came on your own, you don’t have a tracker implanted in your body, and it’s impossible anyone in the organization is aware of your motives. You haven’t taken me seriously from the start, and you’re only stringing me along. That’s why I can kill you now and your organization won’t even know about it.”Upon hearing that, Vulcan’s body shuddered violently and his expression turned fearful for the first time. It was app
