The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)

Chapter 19

“Yara, how, how can you do this? You’re my sister!”

Lucas clutched his face in anger. “I am the victim,” he said through clenched teeth. “How can you be on their side?”

He was full of regret now.

He had asked someone to call Yara over because he wanted his sister to stand up for him.

He did not expect that Yara would take Haylan’s side.

It was infuriating.

“Are you apologizing or not? Do you think I won’t punish you?” Yara was incredibly domineering. Her eyes turned even more frigid.

She had been able to quickly develop a top-level scar removal ointment with Haylan’s guidance. One could imagine just how advanced Haylan’s medical skills were and how knowledgeable he was in pharmaceuticals.

Yara wanted to ask Haylan more about pharmaceuticals. If Lucas pissed off Haylan and caused Yara to lose a genius like this, she would be full of regret.

Usually, Lucas was very arrogant and furious.

However, he grew scared as he faced Yara’s cold stare!

Since childhood, Lucas had grown up in Yara’s shadow. His fear for Yara was ingrained in his bones..

He had no choice but to grit his teeth and look at Queenie even though he was unwilling to do so. “Queenie,” he said. “I’m sorry. It was my fault.”

Queenie was kind of in disbelief after she heard that.

Lucas had always done whatever he wanted at school and had never apologized to anyone.

Now, Lucas actually apologized to

eenie.

“Haylan, I am truly sorry. My little br has not been raised well. If he offended your sister, let me

apologize to you as well. Please forgive us,” Yara said.

Queenie was shaken up by the sudden nice treatment. She did not know what to say.

“It is all right,” Haylan said.

Yara let out a relieved breath and turned around to scold Lucas. “Okay, nothing to do with you anymore. Get lost! If you dare to cause a mess again, I won’t let you off this easy!”

Clenching his jaw, Lucas glared at Queenie and turned to leave.

When Haylan saw that, his expression darkened.

Lucas’s glare meant that he still harbored ill intentions.

Yara looked toward Stanley and said, “Mr. Pons, this was a misunderstanding. Haylan is an employee at my company. I will pay for the rock, so you do not have to trouble them anymore. What do you think?”

“Sure.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Stanley nodded. He found a random excuse and left.

After resolving this, Haylan walked Queenie back to her dorm. He finally left the school with Yara.

“You are Lucas Lynch’s sister?” Haylan looked at Yara in confusion.

You must be wondering why we have different last names, right?”

Yara chuckled and explained, “Our family situation is a bit special. I have my mom’s last name.”

Haylan understood now, so he did not press on. Instead, he lowered his voice and said, “Ms. Irwin, thank you so much for helping me take care of this problem. I owe you one.

“However, I could see from Lucas’s eyes that he is not giving up so easily. Can you make sure that he will not harass my sister anymore?”

“Do not worry. I will teach him a lesson after I get back.” Yara nodded.

“Ms. Irwin, since we are acquaintances, I want to be upfront with you. You better be able to take care of him.

“If he hurts Queenie, I will not hold back in what I do.”

Haylan looked at Yara with cold daggers in his eyes.

Those who crossed the line must die.

He had two younger brothers, one older sister, and two younger sisters. He would not forgive anyone who hurt his family, no matter who they were.

Even if they were his acquaintances or gods, they would still need to pay for their actions.

Yara was instantly frightened and terrified by Haylan’s gaze.

She knew that Haylan

Was no

joking around. She quickly promised Haylan and even pulled out her

phone in front of Haylan to call Lucas and give him a warning.

After doing all that, she 6 C

asked Haylan curiously, “How did you know that the formula for the FOR? You still have not told me.

“Can we upgrade the effect with our current remedy?”

Even a professor at her level could not find the correct formula after days and nights of research,

However, Haylan knew that the formula was wrong with just a whiff.

Either Haylan had used this type of medicine before, or he was a divine healer.

However, judging from Haylan’s scarred body, it was obvious that Haylan had not used the scar removal ointment before.

Thus, Yara determined that Haylan was a divine healer. She wanted to get more medicinal formulas from Haylan.

“I really did smell it out” Haylan said truthfully. “The remedy is already perfect, so there is no need to change anything.”

“Then, are you free to come to my office tonight?” Yara asked. “I have many more incomplete ancient remedies here. Can you help me improve them?”

“I am busy tonight. How about tomorrow?” Haylan nodded.

“Sure, then it is set!” Yara was overjoyed.

This trip to school had not gone to waste. She had gained a lot from it.

After that, Yara and Haylan exchanged contact information and finally went their separate ways.

After Haylan returned home, he found that his parents had gone to work already. They had only left a note behind, reminding him to not be late for work in the afternoon and eat well.

Haylan looked at the note and laughed. “Seriously, I am almost 30 years old, not three, yet they still give me instructions like this.”

His parents were still treating him like a little kid.

Looking at the note made Haylan feel warm and fuzzy inside. He could feel his parents’ love for him.

This kind of feeling was great.

In the afternoon, Haylan went to work at the Mapleturz Group.

As he patrolled, he racked his brain to think of an excuse.

After he got back the money that Declan had taken, he had to think of a reasonable excuse that his parents would believe.

Otherwise, with Charlie’s suspicious personality, he would most likely think that Haylan was hanging out with the wrong crowd again.

“Won the lotto? That’s not logical, and the time doesn’t match up. It’s easy to get suspicious.

“Bonus from work? That’s even less believable.

“Stocks?”

Thinking of that, Haylan’s eyes lit up.

Investing in stocks was a great explanation.

After work, he got home and ate dinner. He immediately registered for a stock account and bound his bank account to it.

He had brought back 6,000 dollars in cash from overseas. He gave 4,000 dollars to Felicia and bought some snacks for Queenie. Now, he had 600 dollars left.

After he registered for the account, he put all 600 dollars into the stock market.

Suddenly, he got a call from an unfamiliar number. Declan’s cold voice streamed in. “Haylan, I

prepared the money. Come get it.”

“Location?”

“DepSea Bar. I’ll be waiting for you.”

Declan’s voice was extremely sinister and murderous.

He hung up as soon as he finished speaking.

Haylan put his phone away. His eyes flashed coldly. “Did he find a helper? I’d like to see what kind of helper he got.”

He told his parents he was going out and exited from the door, heading toward DepSea Bar.

Someone as immoral as Declan would never spit out his money so easily..

If Declan dared to contact Haylan, it had to mean that he found help and set up a big trap for him.

This time, Haylan was determined to show Declan who was the boss.
