Chapter 88: My wife is missing.From the information gathered, Ruben deduced that this mysterious figure was obsessed with Tess. So much he kidnapped and subjected Brittany to torture for hurting Tess. Brittany's last words were proof, she told him to run from Tess or else he would end up dead. The black masked man not hurting Luke when he had the chance was another proof he didn't want to hurt Tess and was protecting her feelings. If the black masked man appeared at the party, it was only for one reason, Tess.Ruben sent a distress message to all the shadow bodyguards nearby, his orders were to close the exits of the hotel. He contacted the Hotel's president himself, asking for assistance with the Surveillance footage when a female bodyguard went into the restroom but couldn't find Tess. Ruben knew fear. The fear of separation, fear of never seeing Tess again and the fear of her getting hurt. From the surveillance footage provided, when Tess walked into the bathroom, to 15 minut
Chapter 89: Saved from death While Tess was still in a state of confusion, Regal was occupied with the crooked tooth man, fighting for his life. He was ridiculed with pain inducing wounds but he had a smile on his face.His eerie aura sending chills down the viewers spine. Any normal person would curl on the floor, convulsing in pain but Regal still looked vibrant and healthy like he wasn't hurt. In fact, it was obvious he was playing around with the crooked tooth man. Instead of initiating an attack or counter attack, he was just evading attacks playfully. Suddenly, the crooked man stopped in his steps, Regal followed suit, a smirk lingers on his lips and his eyes glimmered with mockery. In a brief second, someone came from behind Regal, stabbing him with an arm length sword. "Eyyy two on one? Not fair." Regal said without any change in expression, he still had a bright slightly crazed smile on his face. "He is definately a monster just like the rumors says." Someone on the specta
Chapter 90: Who are you? Tess and Regal dived in the middle of the men, unarmed. They fought with their bare hands and rough strength against sharp axes and blades. Tess seemed to be a better fighter than Regal. Within the blink of an eye, a huge number of men laid on the floor like carpets on the ground she stepped on. She didn't take a single break, delivering earth shattering punches on vital positions of their body without a single bloodshed. Tess hated the sight of blood. While fighting, she prioritizes more internal injuries than external injuries. The crowd gasped in awe as they watched her nimble figure move around, taking down a huge number of men four times her size. Regal watched Tess from the corner of his eyes, he got distracted a few times which earned him a slight graze on the skin a few times, by the men wielding the ax. "Focus." Tess scolded as she fend off a man that almost cut Regal's arm off when he got distracted by her skills. Regal regained his composure
Chapter 91: Gambled off "The leader of the underworld." Tess smirked. "..." Regal paused for a minute and burst into laughter. "Why? You don't believe me?" Tess asked with an eyebrow raised but her face held no hostility. Regal waved his hand, "No no, I totally believe you." He said with underlying sarcasm. "I am not convinced." Tess pouted. Regal chuckled mockingly. "You know, I acknowledge your strength but calling yourself the queen of the underworld could get you in trouble. You can't casually throw Avis's name around and remain unscathed. Besides, who would dare kidnap Avis and from the outside world to the underworld, her turf, that's ridiculous, they'll be courting death by doing so. ""I know right, but I am not lying though" Tess said adamantly with a serious face but her eyes had a tinge of playfulness in it, making Regal dubious. Regal appeared visibly conflicted and it made Tess laugh, he reminded her of Luke a lot. Suddenly she missed home, thinking of it. All alo
Chapter 92: operation find Tess. "Huh?" Regal said with confusion, he followed her gaze and saw her eyes lingering on his chest. He covered his torso with his arms, hiding his naked torso from her sight. "What are you thinking? Aren't you getting treated?" Tess eyed him with visible disgust. She hated the sight of blood. Ohhh." Regal's face tinted red in embarrassment. "Tch." Tess began to apply the leaves on the surface of his wounds. She used a clean cloth and the juice from the leaves to clean the surface of the wounds before applying the wet leaves on it. She observed his reaction to the treatment. He didn't flinch in pain for a single moment. This particular leaf had a strong effect when applied to a wound, it burns hotter than when one's finger is torched with a candle light for five minutes. Then she realized Regal was a victim of Science tests. Her heart broke for him once again. She couldn't imagine how painful life had been for him.After the application of the medicin
Chapter 93: "Who do you think you are?" "What is going on here?" The owner of the restaurant was around, coincidentally. "Boss, this woman refused to pay." the waiter said first with unmasked respect in his voice. "Is that true?" The owner of the restaurant turned to Tess. "I wasn't informed beforehand that I had to pay before eating." Tess responded, a careless smile hung on her lips. She was just looking forward to plummeting a group of men under her feet. "Are you new here? That's the rule, everyone knows that." The owner of the restaurant laughed sheepishly. "Then it's about time to change the rules." Tess said seriously. "It's not in my character to hurt a beauty but you're pretty cheeky, rude and annoying. I will forgive you If you come warm my bed quietly. I love docile women." The owner of the restaurant finally said his true intentions. Tess grimaced in disgust and Regal was visibly pissed. He stopped up from the chair in Tess's defense but was stopped by her. " How
Chapter 94: come at me. Tess smiled amicably. "Is there something wrong with doing that?" "You really had the guts to order me around you puny human." The scar faced man fumed as he saw his terrifying appearance didn't make Tess cower in fear. Tess didn't take offense. She had dealer with a lot of riff raffs like bum before. "She shouldn't provoke him like that, if he gets angry he would increase the bill on our taxes." "Who is that woman that cannot keep her mouth to herself? she just came here yesterday and is already wrecking havoc" The spectators were displeased with Tess provoking the messager from the urchins. In the underworld where the powerful prey on the weak, they had no choice but to succumb to the orders of the urchins. Tess heard their words of displeasure but didn't pay much attention to it, she couldn't blame them. The underworld was built like that from the very beginning. Even as the ruler of the underworld, she couldn't create a democratic world. She can on
Chapter 95: Conspiracy Theory "Tess stop." Regal called. Tess turned her head to Regal, beaming a smile. Regal flinched in response, seeing her eyes up close, he could deduce it was too late to save Don's life, Tess was determined to torture him until his last drop. "... Stop." Regal managed to speak. Tess's eyes narrowed. She hated blood in battle because it caused her to go amok, Invading her senses and clouding her judgment and until she fulfilled her desires, she wouldn't stop. Regal's uncanny resemblance to Ruben acted as a catalyst to dim her blood thirst. Her reasoning came back and she turned to Don. "It ends here." "What? No! I must see the end of this." Don replied, limping as he chased after Tess. Most of the bones in his body were now broken and it was a miracle he could stand upright or move. Tess stopped in her steps, with her back turned to him, she spoke, "You would die." The firm tone in her voice caused Don to stop in his step. He felt cold air wash down on hi
