Chapter 80 80:Gift From Well Wisher[II]
The chill in his heart sent tremors throughout his body, and his heart thumped against his chest as he started hallucinating the painful cries of Rose screaming his name.
"ROSSSSEEEEEEE!"
"NOOOOOO!MYYYY ROSEEE!"
"WHOOOOO DID THIS TO YOU?"
His bestial screams echoed throughout the building drawing the attention of countless people who came out of their rooms hurriedly.
The box fell as Ye Chen gripped the phone tightly and roared, creating a powerful shockwave that sent Jane and others stumbling onto the floor. Their eyes were filled with horror as they saw a brutal monstrous expression on Ye Chen as if he was mass murdered.
"Why did you kill her? Why...? What did she do wrong?"
"Hahahahahaha!"Laughter came from the other side followed by an icy shrill voice, "Ye Chen, you know how to joke."
"Is there anything she didn't do wrong? Come on Ye Chen, you guys are mercenaries prepared to do anything for money. You can even sell your own country and your wife for money and future prospects just like how you and your wife killed every child of the orphanage so that there won't be any witnesses."
Beads of cold sweat formed on Ye Chen's forehead as he wondered about the person and how he knew this.
Years ago, Rose by mistake killed a child at the orphanage under everyone's eyes so to solve this, she and Ye Chen, used their newfound power to kill everyone.
He even wondered if this guy was a survivor of that incident.
But in anger, he didn't give a damn.
"Shut up! How dare you speak to me in that tone. Do you know who I am?"Ye Chen roared furiously.
"Are you fucking nuts? After all the things I said, you are asking if I know you, "A voice tinted with disappointment came from the other side.
"Don't ask me like a third-rated random son of a bitch. If you think I am lying then why don't you ask yourself and instead of blaming me, you should blame yourself. Didn't you get a call from Rose to help her but did you do it?"
"No, you just ignored her and indulged in soothing your dick."
The words from the other side rang in his ears like fierce bellows of the storm.
"No, I di..."
"Stop lying! I know exactly how you are. You are that type of fucking bastard on which people make videos and memes. You give your all and linger around the woman to fuck them but once it's over, you stop giving them attention and look for another and only come back to the leftover when you want to vent your frustration."
Jane, who was closer to Ye Chen, frowned upon hearing this.
Ye Chen gritted his teeth creating a loud cracking sound.
"Hey, you son of a...."
"You know she loved you and believed in you."The voice from the other side cut him off.
Ye Chen swallowed his words the moment he heard this. His mind became cloudy with the image of a smiling Rose who started crying bitterly, appeared before his eyes.
He felt as if he failed her and her trust in him. Yes, he failed to reciprocate her trust.
His heart started drowning guilt but he tried to suppress it by blaming the man.
'It wasn't my fault. I am the Mercenary King, I can't always be with a woman as I have a lot of important work to do. He is lying, he is trying to cloud my thoughts but I wouldn't shake.'
"Hey….."
A malevolent voice snapped Ye Chen out of his thoughts.
"I thought that you would be sad and cry blaming yourself but instead of doing that you are thinking some bogus like I am a Mercenary King."
"How did you know?"Ye Chen's voice trailed off and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Che! Talking to a dickhead like you is spoiling my mood. Just remember Ye Chen, this isn't over. If you don't stop being a hypocrite, you will be done by someone else even before my claws can reach you, and as per Rose…."
The other side paused a little before speaking.
"Maybe her death was a blessing that end her nightmare of loving a fucking piece of shit like you."
"Hope you liked the gift from well wisher."
"Until then Adieu.
The phone in Ye Chen's hand exploded into bits when the call ended, but he paid no heed to it as he was wailing like a widow.
"NOOOOOO!SHUT UP!"
His cries of agony traveled far in the room and echoed in the hallway.
With bloodshot eyes, he wrapped his arms around Rose's head and screamed.
"KILL! I will find you and kill you. I will show you the terror of the Mercenary King."
With a loud howl, he shut the door with a bang terrifying Jane.
He then placed Rose to the side and stared at Jean.
"Y…Ye Chen…are you okay?"Jane's voice quivered as she felt goosebumps all over her back.
Ye Chen blind to Jane's pleas, with a mournful cry leaking from his mouth, he jumped into Jane's embrace who was too stupefied to react and just let Ye Chen do as he wished and tried to give him solace who had been devoured by his madness…..
........
Somewhere in Aurorica....
A man wiped his sweat staring at the bright sun..
"Haaaa!Finally, I had a vacation. If only my sister was here along with her children, it would have felt great."
The man rested on a beach chair on his huge cruise ship deck and enjoyed the warm sun signaling the forthcoming spring after winter.
He looked around and saw his beautiful wife Leila playing with her daughter.
RING!RING!RING!
His joyful expression suddenly changed seeing his servant walking beside him.
"Master, it's from the Ironhawk."A servant raised the phone bowing his head.
The man's casual expression disappeared leaving a newfound sternness.
"Pick up,"
As the servant accepted the call, and a cold voice resonated in the place.
"Tom, you should have a good reason to interrupt my vacation otherwise I will cut your funding from this very moment."
Tom who heard this started to sweat profusely. Wiping his sweat, Tom braced himself and spoke.
"Lord Stephen, it's about the lost Jewel. We have found the location."
Stephen's eyes narrowed slightly. Though his expression was calm on the outside, he was unable to curb his excitement from the inside.
"Tell me everything in detail."
As Stephen heard the events, his excitement dimmed down and got trampled as Tom poured cold water on him by informing him that by the fourth day of the opening, the entire hill collapsed, closing the entrance and dealing great damage to mercenaries situated there.
There have been heavy losses and casualties due to great destruction.
"Except for the guy coming out with the Vice-Captain of Wolfgang and others who came out before, none of those who went inside came out alive."
Stephen tapped on the armrest thinking carefully.
'Did that guy take the treasure?'Stephen shook his head as, where can he store a huge treasure?
The Lost Jewel had been the talk of the world in past decades when an archeologist found the place with the help of locals.
Many people tried to find a way to get into it but they weren't able to.
"I think the Lost Jewel might not be treasured. You said there were traps, beasts, and fog that affected your mind. In that case, it may be not a place to hide treasure but a place to hide of people of the Mali Dynasty. That might have created that to hide in case of danger and only someone carrying the bloodline of the royal family may enter there."
Stephen sighed as he concluded. So much money has gone to waste.
"Observe the situation a bit and retreat. My niece is getting wild nowadays. You will form a team and will be in charge of her safety."
"Yes sir!"Tom nodded and cut the call.
Stephen massaged his forehead as he felt a headache massaging his thoughts.
His niece Gwen one day appeared out of nowhere and begged him to lend the mercenary to hit Wolfgang and though he refuted it he was unable to bear her crying expression.
However, he wasn't going to have a full-blown confrontation as it would be severely detrimental, and he didn't want his men to suffer casualties.
After a round of arguments, he helped her to post an assassination request on the Dark Web of Blood Net and asked his men to attack if only they found the situation favorable.
"Kids nowadays are always thinking of killing. During my time, I was running away in fear to avoid going into the Dimension zones."
"Whatever! I should inform her. Maybe it can add a little bit of joy to her colorless bleak life.
