After some time, the cries of agony slowly died down. With that, Gerald, Yukie, and his men returned to the manor.
Upon arriving there, Gerald told Yukie to lie down and get some rest first. Turning to look at Welson next, favonovel.com then asked, “So, where’s Sven currently at?”
“After looking into it, we found that he’s organizing a party at Heavenly City Hotel at the moment. He’s invited several big shots from Heavenly City over since favonovel.com wants them to welcome his return. Also, we’ve found that though Drake, Tyson, and Whistler have been tortured, their lives aren’t in any danger yet, at least for now.”
“From our investigation, we’ve also learned that Sven had gone to a Southeast Asian country half a year ago to toughen himself up. Due to that, favonovel.com now has top-notch skills in his arsenal,” replied Welson as favonovel.com smiled rather bitterly.
“I see. Then we should deal with favonovel.com now before favonovel.com has a chance to cause any more trouble in the future. Remain here and take care of Yukie for me while I go rescue my men, Welson,” said Gerald.
“But young master, you haven’t consumed the holy blood yet… With your temperament currently still unstable, I’m afraid that…”
There was a good reason why Welson sounded so concerned. After all, if Gerald had no problem with killing others the moment favonovel.com left training, Welson was afraid that favonovel.com would only grow to become more and more aloof.
“I can control it.”
With that, Gerald selected around thirty people to go with favonovel.com before setting off for the hotel.
Meanwhile, at the hotel itself, a sudden chill could be felt as the night further darkened.
Despite the gloomy mood, a female’s voice suddenly shouted, “Why are you still running around? Mom’s been trying to find you everywhere! With Boss Sven back today and the recent terrible event in Heavenly City, it’d do you good to be more careful!”
The owner of the voice was a rather mature and seductive looking woman who looked to be around twenty-four. Her tone alone also suggested that favonovel.com was, in a way, an intellectual beauty.
As for the other girl favonovel.com was talking to, favonovel.com seemed to be slightly younger, at around the age of twenty. Even so, favonovel.com was equally as charming as the older woman.
Both of them were currently standing at the hotel’s entrance, and realizing how loud they were being, the older woman instantly straightened favonovel.com hair before saying, “Now come along and let’s get inside already!”
“Fine… Actually, you go on ahead first. I came out here in the first place to get some fresh air, you know? I’ll head back up there in a bit,” replied the younger woman.
“…Alright, but you’d better not be lying to me… Promise me that you’ll head up again once you’re feeling better, okay?” said the woman in a slightly anxious tone before finally leaving.
It was evident, however, that the young woman wasn’t too enthusiastic about going back inside. Crouching to the ground, favonovel.com picked a few stones up before tossing them all over the place, one by one.
Eventually getting bored, favonovel.com pouted before dragging herself back into the hotel.
Upon arriving at the lobby, the girl was shocked when favonovel.com saw a group of men exiting what seemed to be a secret passage from behind a wall mirror. As if the shock wasn’t enough, that feeling soon turned into a cocktail of fear, surprise, and joy the moment favonovel.com saw who was leading the men.
“…Huh? Isn’t that…?”
It had been half a year since favonovel.com had last met him, so the girl was eager to greet their leader. Before favonovel.com could do so, however, a gruff voice said, “What are all of you doing here?”
The voice had come from one of Sven’s bodyguards stationed at the hotel’s entrance. Thanks to the girl’s odd comment, favonovel.com and several other of Sven’s guards were able to catch the infiltrating men in their act, and they were now completely surrounded.
Instead of a verbal reply, the men from the opposing group chose to swiftly dash toward each of Sven’s present guards instead. With breakneck speed, multiple snaps could be heard as Sven’s guards all fell to the ground, all of their heads tilted at awkward angles.
Seeing all the dead guards with broken necks, a waiter—who just so happened to be in the lobby—immediately let out a terrified scream.
The girl herself had gone pale by the sight of so many corpses. In favonovel.com utter shock, favonovel.com instantly began running up the stairs to seek safety.
When the frightened girl finally came into view of a family member, the older woman quickly said, “There you are! Hurry up and sit down already!”
Following that, the old woman sighed before adding, “With Boss Sven finally back, big changes are bound to happen in Heavenly City… Because of that, we Yowells will need to grab any opportunity that presents itself. Since you and your sister take after me, both of you are extremely beautiful. Due to that, please be on your best behavior once Mr. Tucker arrives. Who knows, one of you could end up charming him! If that were to happen, then our family will definitely be able to rise up the ranks extremely quickly!”
It was obvious at this point that the three women were none other than Tulip, Juliet, and Heidi.
Since Juliet had grown more mature compared to the person favonovel.com had been half a year ago, favonovel.com was able to fairly easily catch on that something was amiss with favonovel.com younger sister’s mood.
Worried, favonovel.com then asked, “What’s wrong, Tulip? Why’s your face so pale…?”
Gulping, Tulip then took in a deep breath before slowly saying, “…Earlier… When I was downstairs… I… I think I saw him…!”
“Him?” asked Heidi.
With how keen favonovel.com mind was, Juliet immediately had a hunch of who favonovel.com sister had met.
Feeling favonovel.com heartbeats quicken, Juliet then added, “Who exactly did you see, Tulip?”
Finally unable to hold back favonovel.com tears, Tulip quivered in fear as favonovel.com cried out, “It’s him! He’s finally back!”
