Chapter 896 You Can’t Go Back on Your Word
“Fine, whatever you say, Master,” Nathan reluctantly agreed as he owed his life to Emmanuel.
Ashton was surprised, as this was the first time she had seen the arrogant Nathan being so obedient. He followed Emmanuel’s orders without hesitation!
Had she witnessed this scene before this night, she would have been much more surprised, but after witnessing Emmanuel’s godlike abilities, it somehow seemed fitting.

Ashton’s feelings toward Emmanuel were currently quite complicated and mixed. Her former idol had always been Sage, and she found Emmanuel to be extremely annoying. However, now she discovered that Emmanuel was Sage’s idol, and this sudden shift in their relationship left her feeling perplexed.
Ashton had finally come to understand why Sage was so protective of Emmanuel.
“And you, Ashton!”
“Huh? Yes, sir!” Upon hearing Emmanuel call her, Ashton, who had been lost in her thoughts, subconsciously responded.
This time, Nathan stared in disbelief, for he knew Ashton had always been a fierce and super-tough woman. After becoming a police officer, she became an even more formidable force. Never had he once seen her behave so meekly!
It wasn’t until Ashton saw Nathan’s expression that she realized what she had just done. Quickly, she put on a cold and aloof demeanor and snorted at Emmanuel. “What do you want?”
Emmanuel didn’t care about Ashton’s or Nathan’s expressions or what they were thinking and directly said, “If Xylie Tanner doesn’t want to go back to Yeringham with you, you are not allowed to force her.”
“Hmph, why should I listen to you? I’m not your disciple!” Ashton lifted her chin, looking proud.
“If she doesn’t want to go, nobody can take her away. Quote me!” Emmanuel declared, unusually domineering.
Ashton grumbled, “We’ll talk about it when I see her. If she acted in self-defense, she can just go back and explain things. She has nothing to be afraid of!”
Emmanuel didn’t want to argue with her any further and issued a final instruction to the two of them. “The second thing is, you must never reveal my identity. You should be well aware of the consequences!”
Nathan quickly reassured him, “Haha, Master, I wouldn’t have gotten an imposter tonight if I dared reveal your identity! What do you think of the antics?”
Emmanuel promptly gazed at him, expecting the scion to guess his answer.
Immediately, Nathan backtracked and nodded.
Ashton, once again in a haughty tone, said, “Like I said, why should I listen to you?”
“Try me!” Emmanuel responded with a hint of malice in his eyes, “My identity is a confidential matter of the Northern Region, and whoever leaks it, I will personally take care of them.”
Chills instantly ran down Ashton’s spine. After witnessing Emmanuel’s abilities that night, she dared not be arrogant anymore. However, she also had her pride. She needed a way out!
“Hmph, I won’t leak your identity unless you help me solve a few cases on my handed”.
“Hmph, I won’t leak your identity unless you help me solve a few cases on my hands!”
“I have no intention of bargaining with you.”
“You-”
Emmanuel’s words made Ashton stomp her foot in frustration. If she could take on Emmanuel, she would have acted already!
“Master, can I negotiate with you, then?” It was Nathan’s turn to speak. “You promised to teach me a few moves, including the Dragonweave Saga. Remember?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
After that, he gave a smug look to Ashton as if to say, “You see, your position with my Master is nowhere near mine.”
Ashton snorted disdainfully but secretly yearned to see Emmanuel’s martial arts skills and even considered learning them secretly. However, Emmanuel shook his head. “No.”
“Why not?!” Nathan’s smile faded, and he exclaimed, “You are the Wolf Warrior, a legendary hero! You can’t go back on your word!”
