Semua Bab Sorry, Too Late: Bab 91 - Bab 100

Fury burned in Hugo's eyes. He roared, "I will not allow scum to tarnish my dignity! The Monk Duo serves as a message! The Overlord isn't the only one who deserves respect in Silverton! I do as well!"…Evan wasn't expecting Hugo's revenge to come so soon. Hugo showed up just when Evan was agonizing over cultivation resources. He arrived with a pair of steel cages covered with blood-soaked cloth, and Evan couldn't tell what was inside.A cruel smile curled Hugo's lips. "You had to do it the hard way, punk. I'll make sure this city has no place for you after what you did to me!"Evan smiled. "I spared you once, Wells, and yet you came back brazenly. If you have that much time, go to the Goldens and let Graham slap you.""How dare you say my name in that tone!" Something cold glinted in Hugo's eyes. "You want me to beg Graham to slap me? Then, you'll have to prove yourself! Men, release the Monk Duo!"Hugo's men yanked the blood-soaked cloth off the cages, revealing what was insi

Evan hoped to find another rare treasure like the drakeblood root.Hugo truly lived up to his reputation as an obsessive collector of antiques. His entire mansion was filled to the brim with them.Hugo tried his best to curry Evan's favor, saying, "Mr. Norwood, do take your time. Just take whatever catches your eye. Or better yet, I'll give you everything."Alas, Evan couldn't find anything suitable for his cultivation even after making a full round through the mansion."Hm?"A small jadeite bottle caught his attention, for the Ninefold Arcane Arts reacted sharply to it.When Hugo saw Evan walking toward that bottle, his expression instantly grew tense. Evan tipped it over, and a peculiar-shaped fruit rolled into his palm."A lotus crown fruit?" Evan blurted out.Hugo tensed further when he saw that Evan recognized it. He rushed over anxiously, blurting, "Mr. Norwood, anything in this mansion is yours. Anything at all, but you can't take that lotus crown fruit. It's meant to be

'Well, would you look at that… Ms. Stanton has an incredible figure with curves in all the right places. She definitely lived up to her name of being sylph-like.'Sylvie was slender, completely different from Ivana, who embodied a mature, alluring kind of beauty.Evan had already noticed her figure back when he treated her illness. Still, he hadn't expected her to be so perfectly proportioned. She was the kind of woman who looked delicate in clothes, but looked stunning even without them.What struck him even more was the confusion on her face as she stared at her reflection, poking at her curves, turning this way and that. She was even sighing in frustration as if she truly believed something was wrong.Evan found himself staring, completely absorbed by the scene before him. It wasn't until he felt an odd heat running down his sinuses that he snapped out of it. When he touched his nose, his fingers came away bloody.'A nosebleed?!' He stared at his fingers, utterly shocked. Then,

Roxanne frowned as they headed toward the hospital."It's probably because of that banquet," Hazel and Anya reasoned. Roxanne thought about it carefully and found that there really was no other reason. Still, the Stone family banquet hadn't exactly been their fault.They arrived at the hospital shortly after. The arrangement was simple. All they had to do was take the blood bags and pay afterward. Unfortunately, they didn't see the so-called donor when they arrived. Instead, a nurse hurried over with a blood bag and a slip of paper.She said this was the blood they needed, along with the bank account the donor wanted the money wired to. The nurse explained that the donor didn't want any unnecessary contact with them. The nurse also said that the hospital had already tested the blood, and it was a match. Only then did the three heiresses finally relax and transfer the money.Zeke's face lit up when he heard it was the right blood type. As the transfusion began, his condition began

"I'm going to die… Hazel, Roxanne, I'm really going to die! Ah!"Hazel, Roxanne, and Anya immediately rushed forward to support him. They only managed to calm Zeke down together. Fortunately, their efforts were enough to get his breathing under control."Zeke, you'll be fine. We still have Evan even though we got scammed!""If push comes to shove, we'll just nab Evan off the streets and force him to do a blood transfusion!"They knew it might cause irreversible consequences, but they were willing to risk everything for Zeke's sake. Alas, their words didn't assuage Zeke's panic. If anything, it only made his panic worse.He wasn't rattled by the scamming. Hazel and the others being fooled had nothing to do with him. However, he did care about Evan's life. After all, his lifeline was about to be killed.The three women stared at him in confusion. Finally, Zeke blurted for the sake of his continued survival, "Hazel, you have to save Evan! There's no time!""Evan? What about him?" T
