Chapter 242: Lifetime Enemy
Beside Pierce Porter and Luna Porter perspectively, stood a Complete Stage cultivator from the Porter family. They looked vigilant and stared at Sean, who had just stepped out of the Bentley.
Sean had gained a notorious reputation for his violence and ruthless killings, so they naturally had to guard against him making any unexpected moves towards Pierce or Luna.
Seeing this level of preparedness, Sean was not surprised. The people Carl left at Jade Restaurant to protect him were also watching him. As he openly went to the Porter family, those people would surely pass the information along.
Moreover, the Porter family had their own spies stationed outside Jade Restaurant.
“Sean!” Pierce Porter greeted him with a smile as he got out of the car. He looked him up and down and then said with some emotion, “It’s been five years, and you’ve grown even stronger.”
“Worthy of the Mason bloodline!”
“Worthy of being our Porter family’s son-in-law!”
“During the years you’ve been in prison, you must have suffered a lot, right? Luna and I have been worried about you. Luna has been waiting for you all these years without getting married.”
“Now, everything is fine!”
“Your grandfather must be happy about your safe return and reaching the Complete Stage. He would be comforted if he knew…”
As he spoke, Pierce Porter even patted Sean’s shoulder in a friendly manner, just like the prospective father-in-law who had praised him at their engagement banquet five years ago.
However, times had changed!
It was not the same as five years ago!
There was no going back!
Pierce Porter’s kindly expression and his words of concern fell on Sean’s eyes and ears, leaving him feeling nothing but disgust at their hypocrisy and pretense.
Worried about me? I don’t believe it for a second!
If you were worried about me, why didn’t you visit me once in all five years at Hilshire? If you were worried about me, why did I only see the Porter family kicking me further down the abyss while I was down during the Kats River and Hilshire battles, rather than lending a hand?
You were worried I wouldn’t die, weren’t you?
Sean subtly shifted his body to avoid Pierce Porter’s hand, his icy gaze sweeping over Luna Porter.
Did she have feelings for him?
What a joke!
In the Porter family’s cold iron chamber, he had been locked up for days and nights, and they had even filmed that kind of video, preventing him from even getting a marriage certificate, turning him into a heartless scum in his mother-in-law’s eyes.
How should he “thank” her for her “feelings”?
“I’m sorry,” Sean said with an indifferent tone, “Unfortunately, I am already committed to someone else. If possible, I would appreciate if Miss Porter could maintain her dignity and not continue to claim herself as my fiancée.”
“Otherwise,”
“Don’t blame me!”
Sean’s cold words didn’t leave any face for Pierce Porter and Luna Porter.
Pierce Porter’s hand paused in mid-air. His eyelids twitched a few times.
However, he held back his anger and smiled generously, saying, “Whatever is going on between you and Luna, you young people can figure it out. Even if you can’t be husband and wife, being friends is also good.”
“As long as we can still be friends, it’s fine.”
Nowadays, the relationship between Pierce Porter and Luna Porter was very delicate. Although they were father and daughter, they did not share the same idea. Hence, Pierce Porter wouldn’t confront Sean for Luna’s sake.
“That won’t do!” Even in front of Sean and Pierce, Luna showed no intention of backing down. She looked at Sean and said firmly, “I’ve said it before, our engagement from five years ago is still valid.”
“You, Sean, are my man!”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“You were in the past, you are now, and you will be in the future!”
“I am yours, Sean. Forever. You think you can just shake me off with a few words and go off with another woman?”
“Heh!”
“Don’t even think about it!”
Luna Porter’s words shocked everyone present.
Pupil Wolf gritted his teeth in frustration!
Spirit Wolf was dumbfounded!
People like Tim Lewis wore expressions of shock, their surprise spilling over into their words!
After all, Luna Porter, with her goddess-like aloof demeanor, was renowned. Countless rich young masters who had wanted to court her were decisively rejected. For five years, she hardly interacted with men her own age!
So, to outsiders, she was an unattainable ice beauty!
But who could have imagined…
When this ice beauty encountered Sean, she’d actually behave like a smitten schoolgirl, and utter such words in front of so many people???
Damn it!
Miss Porter of the Porter family, are you serious?
All their jaws dropped to the ground!
It seemed like Sean could never get rid of her.
But alas!
In response to this almost crazy “confession”, Sean’s originally indifferent face turned frosty in an instant. Murderous intent surged in his gloomy eyes as he strode towards Luna Porter.
While walking, he said, “I’ve also said that once I reach the capital, we will have to deal with our problems!”
Feeling the intense murderous intent between Sean’s brows, the Complete Stage practitioner standing next to Luna Porter immediately stepped forward to shield her.
“Do you want to settle accounts? Alright!”
But Luna Porter pushed him away. Her beautiful eyes stared directly at Sean, not only without fear, but she also raised her delicate chin slightly, provocatively asking, “Do you want to hit me?”
“Insult me?”
“Or kill me?”
“As long as you dare, I’m game!”
At this moment, Luna Porter really looked like a madwoman!
Sean walked straight up to Luna Porter and stopped half a meter away from her. His right fist clenched, dark energy quietly gathering. Without looking back, he asked, “Mr. Porter, your daughter is bent on seeking death.”
“I’ll kill her.”
“Do you have any objections?”
The reason for this question was because when Sean released the dark energy within his body, he immediately sensed something wrong. There were numerous Complete Stage practitioners lurking in the Porter family mansion in front of him!
At least ten of them!
The entire Porter family only had four Complete Stage practitioners, and two of them were at the front gate protecting Pierce Porter and Luna Porter. How could there be so many in the mansion???
Sean instantly thought of the answer!
Looking across the capital, the only people who could gather ten Complete Stage practitioners at once were probably the princes of the royal family. And the only prince who could be at the Porter family mansion at this time was Prince Roscoe.
Therefore!
Sean’s question, on the surface, was directed at Pierce Porter, but in reality, it was directed at Prince Roscoe inside the Porter family mansion!
