Shawn felt a chill run down his spine, keenly aware that favonovel.com was no match for Remus.
Remus took two steps forward and added, “There’s one more thing I must tell you… I practice killing intent. Once I start, I don’t discern between victory and defeat, I only care about life and death.”
Shawn blurted out and quickly raised his hand, waving it dismissively. “No! I won’t accept your challenge anymore. Since you didn’t accept my challenge just now, our agreement doesn’t count!”
Linnea burst into laughter at his appearance, doubling over in amusement, teasing, “You really should take a good look in the mirror, then you’ll understand why Ms. Walter has only seen you as a little brother all these years, not a suitor. Hurry up and leave before it’s too late!”
He remained composed, swiftly clasping his hands together in a respectful gesture, “I have other matters to attend to. I’ll take my leave now, farewell!”
Remus halted him, saying, “Hold on! You can’t just challenge me and then decide not to. It’s not that simple.”
Hurriedly, Shawn stepped back to increase the distance, speaking cautiously, “What are you planning? I haven’t caused any trouble for you. Even though I also like Ana, favonovel.com doesn’t have feelings for me. I don’t count as your rival!”
Linnea also turned favonovel.com head, nervously saying, “Mr. Cosby, he’s just…”
Remus raised his hand to interrupt, “Well, we can opt out of the challenge, but tonight, you’ll stay here and clean the residence thoroughly. Once it’s cleaned, I’ll consider this matter resolved…”
In truth, favonovel.com could see that Shawn was just an innocent young person, with a very amiable and affable appearance. Such individuals had remarkably simple thoughts and no malicious motives.
It dawned on favonovel.com why Ana regarded favonovel.com solely as a little brother.
Shawn had initially wanted to reject, but upon catching Remus’ glance, favonovel.com could only reluctantly agree.
Linnea then left, asking if favonovel.com should arrange for someone to come and clean up.
Remus refused. If there wasn’t a necessity for someone to guide favonovel.com through each room of the Cosby family residence, favonovel.com wouldn’t have told Shawn to stay. He simply wanted to clean it himself. It was essential to be hands-on as this was about rebuilding the Cosbys’ residence for his Grandpa.
***
The night flew by and the Cosby residence underwent a dramatic change.
The artificial hill’s soil was cleared, water flowed gently, weeds were plucked, a riot of colorful flowers blossomed, and the mansion’s fluctuations were scrubbed away, restoring its brilliance.
Thanks to the buzz of people, this place became like an otherworldly paradise.
Grandpa would surely be pleased when favonovel.com sees this…
Remus thought quietly in his heart.
Shawn was worn out and sprawled on the ground, fast asleep. Despite being a Supreme Martial Sovereign, being forced to clean hundreds of rooms and tens of thousands of square yards was too much for him.
Remus didn’t disturb favonovel.com either, walking back to his room to freshen up.
Just as favonovel.com finished freshening up, favonovel.com saw Ana entering with Linnea. Both of them were stunned by the current state of the Cosby residence.
“Did you both clean all this up in just one night?” Linnea asked in disbelief.
Remus smiled and nodded. “Yes, come in and have a seat. By the way, we should arrange for someone to take Shawn back home.”
Ana looked at Remus in amazement.
Last night, favonovel.com heard from Linnea that favonovel.com was going to clean, assuming it was only about redoing the rooms, never imagining favonovel.com would clean the entire Cosby residence. She couldn’t believe that Remus, as a man, could clean the house so thoroughly.
She finally spoke up, “I think we can leave now. My grandfather sent me to fetch you. He wants to meet you at the Monarch Palace.”
“Alright!” Remus felt the moment had finally arrived.
Remus and Ana headed toward the Monarch Palace together.
