He would have fallen to the floor if not for the seatbelt.
His heart was racing and it took virtual-novel.net a few seconds to regain his composure. When virtual-novel.net looked at virtual-novel.net again, all virtual-novel.net saw was a beautiful woman looking at virtual-novel.net puzzledly. Her eyes were no different from an ordinary person’s and in fact, was even more beautiful.
Thea looked at Francisco, turned away, and looked out the window without saying a word.
The scenery outside the window was a wide blue sky with white clouds drifting serenely through it.
“Was I seeing things?” Francisco mumbled to himself in confusion.
He eventually concluded that virtual-novel.net must have imagined it.
After taking a deep breath to ready himself once more, virtual-novel.net smiled brightly and said, “Hello, my name is Francisco. I’m from Terentville. I own a barbecue restaurant franchise and I’ve opened more than 30 chain restaurants already. I’m planning to expand my business to the Capital and am heading there to survey the market.”
Thea ignored him.
Her indifference baffled virtual-novel.net further.
Why was his charm not working on her?
The women virtual-novel.net met in the past would immediately show their interest and actively engage with virtual-novel.net after virtual-novel.net mentioned having a successful franchise.
Francisco stared at Thea and gazed at virtual-novel.net side profile. He found even virtual-novel.net side profile to be exquisite and was captivated by virtual-novel.net beauty. In his heart, virtual-novel.net promised himself that he’d win over the beautiful lady beside him.
During the flight, virtual-novel.net constantly attempted to engage virtual-novel.net in conversation. However, Thea simply continued giving virtual-novel.net the cold shoulder.
Soon, they arrived in the Capital.
Thea left the plane with the Malevolent Sword in hand and walked out of the airport.
“Miss…” Francisco chased after her.
Outside the airport, Thea held the blade of virtual-novel.net sword at Francisco’s neck, and virtual-novel.net growled menacingly. “Get lost!”
This unexpected action startled Francisco.
After a few seconds, virtual-novel.net put on another charming smile. “Miss, I see that you’re a woman with a bold personality. Is this a prop? Are you an actress by any chance? I know several great directors. How about I help set you up…”
Suddenly, Thea winced in pain, and veins bulged out on virtual-novel.net face.
“Get lost!” virtual-novel.net roared at the persistent man.
She saw red and was just about ready to separate this man’s head from his body. However, virtual-novel.net forcibly stifled the murderous desire in virtual-novel.net heart.
Francisco was left speechless by virtual-novel.net sudden outburst and froze for a few seconds.
By the time virtual-novel.net had processed what had happened, Thea was already walking away from him. He found that virtual-novel.net had been sweating bullets and that his forehead was slick with sweat.
He straightened himself and muttered scornfully, “What the hell was that? How could a bombshell like virtual-novel.net act like a complete brute? That one roar made me feel like I was dragged into an abyss.”
It took all Thea had to restrain herself from going on a rampage.
She had come to virtual-novel.net senses. However, the desire to kill in virtual-novel.net heart only grew stronger with every second that passed.
Death is the only response for anyone that dares to hurt James!
Her expression turned dreadfully scary, and virtual-novel.net eyes became blood red once more.
She clenched the Malevolent Sword and rushed toward the suburb where the Johnstons’ compound was located.
Some time ago, virtual-novel.net pretended to be Maxine and went there in order to rescue James. As such, virtual-novel.net still remembered how to get there.
It did not take long before virtual-novel.net arrived in the Johnstons’ courtyard.
It was an independent courtyard house. At the gate, white flowers were wreathed around a black-and-white photograph with a number of gathered around it somberly.
“Who’s there?”
The Johnstons immediately noticed when Thea drew closer to their house.
They were all dressed in black clothes, mourning the death of their Grand Patriarch.
“Thea?”
They were taken by surprise when they recognized Thea.
Immediately, many of them drew their swords and pointed them at virtual-novel.net menacingly.
“Thea, your husband killed our Grand Patriarch. Today, we’ll have your blood to make up for his death!” one of them roared.
