The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 

“Do you have the superpower to protect me? Haylan said. 

“Huh?” Reign was stunned. 

“Nothing. I spouted nonsense on a whim. Continue.” Haylan smiled. 

Reign’s face darkened. She glared at Haylan and said, “I said. I’ve decided to protect you! 

“Therefore, stay in my office and don’t come out no matter what happens. I will take care of sending away the Muller family’s people. 

“As a condition, no matter what happens from now on, you have to stand on my side. How about that?” 

Throughout Lightdom City. Reign was the one who understood best how powerful Haylan was. 

She had recently encountered some trouble. A super killer that even Landon could not kill had his eyes on her 

Therefore, she really needed Haylan’s help. 

“Is this considered a trade?” Haylan asked. 

“That’s right.” 

“Alright, deal” 

Haylan stood up and shook Reign’s hand. 

“The Muller family should be here soon. Sit here. I’ll go out and deal with them” 

Reign and Haylan shook hands and turned to walk out the door. After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and asked. “Did you teach Larry to pursue me previously** 

In the past, Reign found Larry quite repulsive, and there wasn’t a single thing she found appealing about him. 

In the past few days. Larry had undergone significant changes, almost as if he had become a different person. He had done many things that pleased Reign, leaving her feeling satisfied. That was why she considered giving hurn a chance to have a proper conversation and sit down together. 

According to her investigation, Larry had a meeting with Haylan before such a change occurred. 

“Yes, but after I realized he wasn’t a good match for you, I beat him up. Don’t worry. He won’t bother you anymore” Haylan 

said. 

Reign’s eyes turned cold, and she spoke with a firm tone. “From today onwards, stay out of my personal life! Don’t you to meddle in matters that don’t concern you again!” 

Reign opened the door and walked out. She said to the female secretary. “Lock it from the outside. Don’t let him out.” 

With that, she left 

dare 

Reign was very considerate. She knew that Haylan would not stay put obediently. Even if Haylan was locked in the office, he might still think of ways to come out 

Only when Haylan was thoroughly trapped did he refrain from causing any further trouble. This allowed Reign to have the time to negotiate with the members of the Muller family. 

Moreover, now that so many important figures of the Muller family had come over, they were definitely going to skin Haylan alive! 

Locking Haylan in her office was also a form of protection for Haylan 

The secretary immediately took out a lock and locked CEO’s office door from the outside before following Reign. 

“Meddling in matters that don’t concern me? Well, if Larry can truly change, then you two would actually make a good couple. 

In the office, Haylan smiled. He sat up and sat in Reign’s seat again. He crossed his legs and felt what it was like to be a boss Then, he took out a packet of coffee from Reign’s drawer and prepared to brew a pot of coffee. 

After opening the drawer, he saw a photo. He could not help but be stunned and take it out. 

The photo showed Reign with a man. 

The man was very old. His beard and hair were gray, and he looked 70% similar to Reign. His smile was amiable, and he hugged Reign’s shoulder intimately. 

“Reign’s father?” 

Haylan looked at the photo with a puzzled expression 

Why did Reign put away such a good photo and put it in a drawer? 

Could it be the relationship between Reign and her father had broken down? 

Haylan thought for a moment and put the photo back. 

No matter what, this was Reign’s private matter. He could not pry into other people’s secrets. 

However, he found another one after putting the photo back into the drawer. It was hidden in the document, with only a corner exposed. 

The photo made Haylan’s face darken. 

In the photo was a pair of shines! 

These were the shoes that he had worn before! 

Haylan immediately took out the photo and was stunned again. 

It was a photo of him and Reign! 

To be exact, Reign had secretly taken that photo with her phone. 

In the photo, Haylan was wearing special shines and his previous clothes. He was standing behind Reign and looking into the distance with cold and vigilant eyes 

“When did she take the photo?” Haylan frowned. 

As Sovereign of Shadows, he had never exposed his identity, nor had anyone secretly taken photos of him. 

Although he did not reveal his identity when escorting Reign, Reign still had his photo. This was not a good thing. 

If the photo were leaked one day, he would be investigated. Then, the enemy might find out the identity of the Sovereign of Shadows 

Just as Haylan was about to tear the photo, he felt some writing on the back of it. He immediately turned the photo around 

to examine it 

On the back of the photo was a neat and imposing line of words that said, “Heroes are not defined by their origins. At this moment, he is my hero! 

“If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay him!” 

The strokes flew with elegance and power, moving like a graceful river. 

This line of words captured the essence of fluidity and strength. 

“I didn’t expect her writing looks pretty nice,” Haylan thought. 

He thought for a moment and did not tear up the photo. Instead, he put it back. 

The fact that Reign could develop the photo meant that she must have backups of it on her phone or computer. Ripping it apart would be pointless. 

When Haylan put it back, he didn’t notice that there was another photo under it. 

The photo was flipped over and was written. “My beloved was a legendary hero, and there would come a day when he would. arrive to marry me, riding upon a magnificent rainbow cloud. 

“However, even without the rainbow cloud, it wouldn’t matter. Coming to marry me in camouflage attire seems quite nice 

On the front of the photo was the scene of Haylan healing Reign.
