Chapter 663
Emmanuel heard of angels and demons when he was a young kid, but he
had never seen such creatures before. As far as he was concerned, if there
were demons in the world, they would look hideous with pointed teeth.
Needless to say, one would be terrified the moment they caught sight of
such creatures.
However, it wasn’t until now that Emmanuel realized what a demon looked
Tike. Although Magnus wasn’t handsome, he was well–mannered and
gentlemanly.
Emmanuel had no idea if the man was putting on an act or that he was
raised well. Either way, many people would take the initiative to befriend him.
Who would have thought that even though he had confessed his love to a
woman, he would still break her fingers and even clench her neck to threaten
another man with her life?
-Besides that, he remained calm and collected, and his voice was as gentle
as ever; that was what made him terrifying. Who in the world could
dispassionately kill the woman he loved?
If he didn’t love Claudette, why did he look so sincere while confessing his
love to her? Perhaps that was what a demon was capable of doing.
“Five! Four! Three!” Magnus started counting down, ready for any eventuality.
“No!” Emmanuel raised his hands. “I’ll surrender!”
At this point, he had no choice but to throw in the towel. After all, he couldn’t
let Claudette die. If saving her was his mission, her death would mean that
-he had failed his task.
As a Wolf Warrior member, he was always ready to sacrifice himself to
complete his task. Certainly, he hadn’t given up yet, and he was still looking
for a chance to strike.
“No!” Claudette shouted with all her strength, but she realized her voice was
weak. She wondered if Emmanuel had heard her.
The next moment, Magnus waved his hand. Black Bear endured his pain and
charged toward Emmanuel again. Quinn was even quicker as he extended
his palm, after which an air blast sent Emmanuel flying away.
Still hoping to survive, Emmanuel held on to a rock right before he fell off the
cliff.
“Let go!” Magnus demanded.
Certainly, Emmanuel wouldn’t obey his order, for he had a strong desire to
live. Once he let go, it was akin to suicide.
Meanwhile, he secretly grabbed some stones, waiting for a chance to
Counterattack. He knew that when a person believed they had gained victory,
they would be complacent. By appearing to be weak, he was readying
himself to strike.
“Go and help him!” Magnus ordered.
“Haha…” Black Bear directly stepped on the man’s hand.
Despite the excruciating pain, Emmanuel gritted his teeth and held on. Since
it was the middle of the night, he had no idea how tall the cliff was. However,
he had a feeling that he would be killed if he fell.
“Go to hell!” Quinn extended his hand in an attempt to break the man’s
fingers.
Emmanuel knew that his enemies were probably complacent at this point, so
he was ready to kill Quinn first before destroying Magnus. Although it was a
huge risk to take, he had no choice but to give it a shot.
Just then, Magnus was heard exclaiming, “Claudette!”
He subconsciously extended his hand. Much to his surprise, the woman
struggled out of his grip and jumped off the cliff while he was distracted.
“Claudette!” Emmanuel’s eyes widened in disbelief as he fell into a dazed
state. Once again, he witnessed Claudette sacrificing herself to save him.
Chapter 664
There was a smile on Claudette’s face.
Didn’t she tell me that the wind rises, and we must give it all we got to carry
on? Why is she giving up now?
Initially, Quinn wanted to seize the chance to break Emmanuel’s fingers, but
he stopped what he was doing because of the turn of events. By the time he
came to his senses, he decided to destroy the man immediately. He
understood that since Claudette was dead, Emmanuel had no more
restraints, and the three of them wouldn’t be a match for him even if they
joined forces.
“Let’s call it a day, Emmanuel. The fight between us has just started. I’ll destroy
you sooner or later!” Magnus was fully aware of what was going to happen,
so he turned around to leave upon finishing his words, not daring to stay
there any longer.
“Ah! I have to kill you, Magnus!” Emmanuel penetrated Quinn’s hand with the
stone and leaped onto the cliff.
When Quinn saw that the man was drenched in bloodlust, he was horrified.
Not daring to continue the fight with him, he covered his blood–soaked hand
and fled. He was merely working for Magnus for the money, so he didn’t want
to lose his life.
Similarly, the other man also quickly ran away in horror.
While ignoring the rest of them, Emmanuel growled and furiously extended
his fist toward Magnus.
Despite the distance, Magnus was so terrified that he was soon soaked in
sweat.
“Run, Mr. Magnus!” At the most critical moment, the royal Black Bear dashed
forward and got struck in Magnus‘ stead.
Crack! He was always proud of his robust figure, but a dent formed in his
body following Emmanuel’s attack, and his bones broke apart. At the same
-time, he sprayed out a mouthful of blood at Emmanuel.
Without hesitation, Magnus continued to run while looking battered. Faced
with Emmanuel’s death threat, he no longer looked as elegant as usual.
“Dang it!” Emmanuel wanted to get rid of Black Bear, but the 200–pound guy
held on to his fist.
He was a righteous person. Even though Black Bear was his foe, he admired
the other party for his fearlessness. Eventually, he decided not to attack the
corpse. Instead, he slowly retracted his hand. Black Bear’s figure was stiff, and
he was obviously dead.

Meanwhile, Blue Rose, who was searching for Eve in the darkness, heard the
noise coming from the cliff. “Haha! It seems that Claudette is dead!”
The next moment, she saw Magnus running toward her in a hurry. “Is
everything going to plan, Mr. Magnus? I can see that you’ve gained the
victory again.”
Admiration was written all over the woman’s face.
She had witnessed Magnus coming up with plans and defeating their
enemies countless times. Even though they were dealing with Emmanuel,
who was touted as the Northern Region Wolf Warrior, she believed Magnus
would end up being the winner.
Nevertheless, Magnus ignored the woman and brushed past her.
“Mr. Magnus?” Blue Rose was surprised, for she had never seen the man
looking as flustered as this. Did something happen?
Just then, a figure appeared behind her with a whoosh.
“Damn it!” Blue Rose knew she had been negligent, so she immediately
turned around to counterattack, but it was too late.
Eve forcefully wrapped her legs around Blue Rose’s neck and used her weight
to pin the woman onto the ground.
Crack! Blue Rose instantly found it difficult to breathe, feeling that her neck
was about to break.
“Let me tell you what a wolf is!” Eve gritted her teeth and exerted more force
on her legs. “A wolf is the most patient beast! To get to its prey, it can lurk in
the darkness for seven days; it can show weakness; it can get hurt; and it can
even risk its life. However, it will never give up hunting down its target. It can
endure a long period of pain to gain the victory. I, Eve Thompson, am a Wolf
Warrior!”
The moment Eve finished speaking with agitation, she growled and used all
her strength to kill the woman.
Blue Rose’s eyes popped out, and her face was livid. Within seconds, the light
seemed to have gone out of her gaze.
Even in the last moments of her life, she still didn’t understand why she was
killed by the other party when she had gained the upper hand. She also didn’t
understand why a brilliant man like Magnus would be defeated by another
man.
Chapter 665
Magnus entered the Lenoir residence in a hurry. He didn’t think Emmanuel
had the guts to barge into such a place and kill him, but he was still worried
nonetheless. After all, Emmanuel was incensed, and it was hard to predict
what he would do.
All of a sudden, an elegant woman appeared and greeted him respectfully,
saying, “Mr. Magnus!”
“Mrs. Quillen?” Initially, Magnus was ready to leave the Lenoir residence, but
he decided to stay there for a while longer.
The woman before his eyes was none other than Felicity. After she fell out
with the Quillen family, she decided to return home to spend New Year’s.
Magnus hadn’t had a proper talk with her before.
“Why does it look like you’re in a hurry, Mr. Magnus?” Felicity wanted to ask him
about where Adolph was, but it was apparently not a good time to do so.
“There’s something I need to attend to,” Magnus replied politely.
Then, he continued with a smile, “I heard that those from the Quillen family
have been treating you badly, Mrs. Quillen. They even joined forces and took
your belongings away. Have you retrieved them?”
Felicity was startled, not expecting the scion of Zovince to be aware of her
affairs. “It’s so embarrassing for me, Mr. Magnus. Since we’re family,
sometimes it’s hard to divide our assets.
Magnus was on the run, so he decided to cut to the chase. “You have a point,
Mrs. Quillen, but if you manage to get back your things, I’ll be more than
willing to buy them from you. I’ll even offer a billion or two. Let’s have a proper
negotiation by then.”
“Well…” Felicity was tempted. She wasn’t an ambitious person. All she wanted
was a better life for the Lenoirs and herself.
Besides that, she had always admired Adolph since a young age. Her brother
once told her that if a person wasn’t the most powerful one, they would
always be restricted by the rest. On the other hand, money would give one
the best support.
This world was all about connections, and money was what made the world
go round. The leaders of some countries were controlled by the capitalists,
and they were merely the spokespeople for the conglomerates behind them.
Therefore, just like her brother, Felicity valued money the most.
“If you face any difficulties, you can always reach out to me. I’m more than
willing to help,” Magnus said gentlemanly.
“Thanks, Mr. Magnus.” Felicity dipped her head, feeling confident that she’d
get back the things that were rightfully hers.
“I’ll take my leave, then.” Magnus nodded at the woman and walked past her.
Many people regarded Magnus as an intelligent person who was adept at
observing people’s expressions and reading their minds.
He could tell that Felicity would certainly help him get the two things from the
Quillen family.

After leaving the Lenoir residence, Emmanuel didn’t have the nerve to go
home, for he was worried his mother would be anxious when she saw him
injured.
His wife was staying at the Quillen residence for the new year holidays, so he
decided to return to the Yociam Residence on his own.
Sorrow spread when it was silent. He initially thought he could save
when she said she wouldn’t want to see my body, even if it was for free!
