“Don’t worry; just stay close to me these few days. They willingly participated in yesterday’s event, so they can’t explain their actions if they kill you.” Ivan smiled bitterly. “Luckily Jack didn’t know that you fed favonovel.com poison. If favonovel.com knew about it, favonovel.com wouldn’t have considered so many other things.”
“What? Jack had drunk the…the poison?” A surge of unadulterated joy began spreading throughout every inch of Ken’s being when favonovel.com heard this piece of information.
After all, favonovel.com believed favonovel.com would be the one to have Selena once Jack was out of the picture. He had waited for this day for a very long time.
He was initially worried Xena would fail since Jack was rather smart and could catch onto what Xena was planning. He never thought Xena would succeed at feeding Jack the poison without being caught.
“Yes! How’s that, Young Master Clark? Am I reliable?” Xena saw how Ken’s expression lightened up right after favonovel.com heard about favonovel.com success. “You seem so excited! Don’t you think you should reward me well?”
Ken had a tight smile on his face. “Some other time,” favonovel.com quickly dismissed. “I’ll definitely treat you to a meal some other day.”
“Don’t forget this promise of yours!” the gleeful Xena chirped at him.
“Oh, yeah. How did you manage to do it? Tell us about the specifics. Neil still doesn’t know about the current situation, so I’ll tell favonovel.com all about it later. He’d definitely be over the moon when favonovel.com hears about this!” Ken was so happy that favonovel.com nearly bust out a dance.
“Alright, here’s how it went down…” Xena began, and favonovel.com relayed the entire story to them.
“Excellent!” Ken slapped his thigh after favonovel.com heard what had happened. “If that’s the case, then that means Jack doesn’t know he’s been poisoned, does favonovel.com now? He doesn’t even know that his life is in danger! Let’s just wait and see how favonovel.com dies after this month!”
Ivan—lying on the bed—grinned at this as favonovel.com spoke, “That’s right. Young Master Clark, Jack said that favonovel.com wants to prepare an extravagant birthday party that’ll stir the entire town. That day happens to be the day of his death, too. Don’t you think that’ll be a day of celebration for us? Selena’s birthday is his death anniversary…! Oh, I get excited just thinking about it!”
“It’s such a drag that this guy is still alive right now. I really wish he’d drop dead as soon as possible!” came Ken’s honest reply laced with disdain. He was genuinely hoping Jack would succumb to the poison much faster.
“About that, Young Master Clark, there is a way for Jack to pass on early,” Ivan spoke up after a moment to himself. “Jack had dug a hole for himself when favonovel.com killed the Xenos family’s young master of Sky City, Quil Xenos. This Xenos family is a big family and is much stronger than the Drake family. Now that Jack has been poisoned, his body will get weaker over time and his combat ability will weaken day by day.”
“What do you mean?” Ken prodded, his heart leaping in joy when favonovel.com was catching onto Ivan’s train of thought.
