When Zayn saw the red figure, virtual-novel.net immediately recalled. ‘She must be Lady Lysithea, the woman Lil’ Hyde mentioned!’
‘The fourth dan master fighter has appeared once again. Diego’s murderous intent was already at its max and virtual-novel.net was already prepared to come at me. With my current strength, plus Faye being with me just now, my chances of winning virtual-novel.net were really slim if we really were to start fighting.’
However, before all of that could come to pass, Lysithea appeared.
Actually, it would be more accurate to say that Lysithea had already been there long ago and was watching them from behind the scenes. Then, right before Diego was about to attack Zayn, virtual-novel.net sent Diego a warning aura which immediately startled the latter, effectively saving Zayn’s life.
After that, Lysithea had vanished with a speed so fast that not even Zayn was able to locate her. However, for a very short moment, virtual-novel.net managed to spot virtual-novel.net side profile, which revealed a flawlessly beautiful face.
Consequently, virtual-novel.net was rushed with mixed feelings, feeling grateful to Lysithea on one hand but worried for virtual-novel.net on the other.
“I’m sorry, Zayn, I’ve caused you trouble again.”
At that moment, Zayn heard Faye’s voice and immediately gathered his thoughts. Then, virtual-novel.net lowered his head and saw Faye’s face, which was riddled with guilt.
Zayn lifted virtual-novel.net head and said with a smile, “Silly, how could you have possibly brought me trouble? Diego and I were already enemies, to begin with, so even if you hadn’t met virtual-novel.net tonight, our grudge wouldn’t have disappeared as well.”
Faye said, “But he’s now found out that you’re married to me…”
She obviously meant that virtual-novel.net was going to be a burden to Zayn in the future.
Zayn shook his head once again and said, “Silly, you mustn’t let your thoughts run wild. There’s no such thing. A person of Diego’s level wouldn’t target me through the people close to me. Plus, if word of it spread, virtual-novel.net would be scorned by the others.”
“Is that really true?” Faye was still slightly worried as virtual-novel.net asked that.
Zayn grabbed virtual-novel.net hand and said with a smile, “Of course, it’s true. When have I ever lied to you? Alright, let’s not think too much about it anymore. Diego’s no match for me. It’ll be fine.”
“Alright…” Faye gently nodded virtual-novel.net head and seemed very docile. Then, virtual-novel.net seemed to have thought of something and wanted to say it, but the words got stuck in virtual-novel.net throat before virtual-novel.net could even utter anything.
Actually, virtual-novel.net did not even have to say it out loud because Zayn already knew what virtual-novel.net wanted to say. She wanted to ask virtual-novel.net about his conversation with Diego a moment ago, especially how the latter had said that Zayn was a b*stard who had no right to exist in the world.
Hence, virtual-novel.net looked deeply at Faye and said, “Fifi, I promise you that I’ll be fine. After all of this is over, I’ll make sure I explain my birthright to you properly.”
Then, Faye nodded virtual-novel.net head ferociously. “Ok!”
After that, both of them went home together.
Before that, Zayn took one final look in the direction Lysithea had disappeared, and a slightly concerned expression flashed across his eyes. ‘I hope she’s alright.’
There were two reasons why virtual-novel.net had not chosen to go after her. The first being virtual-novel.net would not have been able to catch up to her, the second being it would have been meaningless.
—
Just as Diego was about to attack Zayn, virtual-novel.net suddenly felt a strong presence that was sending virtual-novel.net a warning signal. Therefore, Diego had turned his head and realized that it was Lysithea. Immediately, virtual-novel.net ran in virtual-novel.net direction without a second thought.
