"Miss Zhou, my patience is limited. Have you made your decision?" Wendell asked.
Ashley, who was being pressured by him, looked anxious. She looked at Yenora, gnashed her teeth and said in a low voice, "You are just an illegitimate daughter. Shouldn't you be willing to sacrifice yourself for the family? Don't worry. I will plead with our family to improve your treatment if you agree to this. You..."
Slap!
Just as she was speaking, a slap on her face interrupted her words.
She held her burning cheek as she gave a deathly glare to Fade who just slapped her. "Did you just hit me?"
He responded in a deep voice, "You are a selfish and stupid person. You deserve to be beaten!"
"Our Zhou family will definitely not let you go for what you did to me. I..." She shouted a string of curses towards him.
"Shut up!"
He slapped her again, resulting in her face being numb and almost unable to move.
Staring at his cold eyes, Ashley felt as if there was a dagger pointing straight to her heart, which made her shudder. She refused to utter another word.
Then, Fade withdrew his gaze and strode toward Wendell.
Wendell frowned slightly before asking coldly, "What do you want?"
Fade replied nonchalantly "Yenora is my friend. I don't want her to get hurt! You'd better leave right now."
Upon hearing this, Wendell suddenly raised his eyebrows. "Are you bossing me around?"
"That’s up to you to interpret!" Fade retorted rudely.
Wendell’s face darkened. "Do you know who you are talking to?"
"It doesn't matter. You have ten seconds.
Leave now!" Fade’s cold voice echoed.
Wendell, who was standing opposite him, fumed in rage. "D*mn, you are even trying to look cool in front of me. I'd like to see what you can do."
"Wolfen, attack him!" He ordered. "Don't kill him immediately. Torture him. I want to see him kneel down in front of me and beg for mercy."
"Sure!" Wolfen jumped and rushed towards Fade with fierce eyes.
Fade took a quick glance at him and said coldly, "Today is Yenora's birthday. I don't want to kill anyone."
"You are courting death!" Wolfen growled and pounced on him.
"Brother Chen, be careful." Upon seeing Wolfen's move, Yenora couldn't help but shout in worry.
At this very moment, Fade looked at Wolfen who was pouncing towards him, but he didn't move from his spot at all.
A smile appeared on the corner of Wolfen's lips, "You brat, you are frightened silly. You might as well just die!"
A whistling gust of air, like the claws of a fierce wolf, was aimed straight towards Fade' s heart.
However, just as Wolfen was about to claw at him, Fade, who was standing still, moved back slightly.
With this simple action, a thick and heavy energy spread across his body. A layer of grayish-brown aura formed into a defensive shield across his chest.
Wolfen's sharp claws struck Fade's shield and it was as if he had grabbed onto a hard rock wall. There was no way to break through it. The strength of the attack caused his knuckles to crack and fracture.
"Ah... You..." Wolfen screamed and stared at him in surprise.
Fade took this chance to make his move.
He punched with his right fist.
Her classmates, who previously had some opinions about him, saw him in a new light.
"I didn't expect the Chinese guy to be so powerful."
"You have quite the eye, Yenora. The random stranger you met on the street turns out to be such a powerful master."
"However, is it really okay for him to offend the Yao family?"
Back at the hotel, Fade washed up and prepared to rest.
At this very moment, a phone call came through. He picked up the phone and saw that it was Therius. He had a gist of the situation. "Mr. Zhou." "Fade, did you attend Yenora's birthday party today?" Therius asked.
Fade simply replied, "Yenora is my friend. She invited me, so I went."
"I've heard about what happened at the birthday party. You had a conflict with the Yao family."
"Yes!" Fade replied.
Therius continued, "The Yao family is not easy to deal with. Fade, you have to be careful. I'm afraid that the Yao family will retaliate against you."
"It doesn't matter. If they dare attack me, I will let them know what it means to never return,” Fade said confidently.
"I know you are very powerful, Fade. However, the Yao family is not a small family. Why don't you move to our Zhou family, and then it'll be easier to take care of them..." He suggested.
Upon hearing this, Fade understood the purpose of the call, "Mr. Zhou, thank you for your kindness. However, I am used to living alone. In all honesty, the reason why I dealt with Wendell tonight was because he ruined
Yenora's birthday party. I did not mean anything else."
Hearing his words, Therius could not help but fall into silence. He paused for a few seconds and said, "I understand. Fade, take care of yourself and have a good rest then."
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou!" Fade replied and then hung up the phone.
