When Matteo finally arrived at Cinnabar Harbor with his men, he realized that someone was already there ahead of
him.
At that moment, that person held a thin yet sharp weapon of blood-red color in his hand, slaying everyone
ruthlessly.
Spurt!
A jet of crimson blood spurted out.
At once, another person fell prey to the man's sharp weapon and collapsed to the ground.
That scene was exactly the same as when he charged toward everyone at Elysium's altar back then.
Upon seeing that, Elizabeth, who was retreating toward the port under the protection of her other men,
immediately pointed at Kurt and shrieked, “Kill him! Finish him off!”
In other words, she ordered the men around her to lift their guns and kill Kurt right away.
Consequently, Matteo saw a man beside her whipping out a submachine gun he had never seen before.
Oh yes, wasn't that old coot, Eddie, fond of doing research on such things before he died?
His eyes promptly went cold. Raising the sniper rifle in his hand, he likewise pulled the trigger.
Bang!
With a single shot, that man instantly dropped dead.
At that, Elizabeth's face abruptly drained of all color.
She immediately swung her gaze in the direction of the gunshot. Unfortunately, all that entered her line of vision
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas the sight of another bullet whizzing toward her.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Gunshots rang out successively, making it unquestionable that the shooter must be mowing everyone down like a
gust of wind blowing fallen leaves away.
In no time, everyone at the harbor met their end at Matteo's rifle, leaving the old lady the sole survivor.
That included the situation on Kurt's side. After he had also eliminated the last person, he put away the Blood Arrow
in his hand gracefully. Following that, the battle drew to an end for real. That old hag was the only person who
remained.
When Sebastian arrived, the three teenagers had already crippled Elizabeth's hands and had her kneel there while
waiting for their father.
“It's turned out that you were the culprit, Elizabeth Heard!”
“Yup, it was me indeed! Did you not miscalculate as well, Yariel? It never crossed your mind that I was the person
behind everything, huh?”
Surprisingly, Elizabeth felt superior when she saw the man who ruined the White family back then and destroyed
her lover, Eddie, in a single fell swoop.
She thought that she was the last person standing, far better than Alfred and Eddie.
But no sooner had her words fallen than the man standing before her drawled with his eyes pinned on her, “Indeed,
it never crossed my mind. However, it wasn't for any other reason than the fact that I never expected the Heard
family to be so kinky.”
“What did you just say? Who's kinky?”
The instant Elizabeth heard that, she instantly flew into a rage as though she had been stung.
“Is that not the truth? Eddie suffered from dwarfism. Although he later had prosthetics legs, it was still relatively
difficult if a woman wanted to have children with him.”
“How dare you?”
It was as though Elizabeth had been smacked hard across the face out of the blue, for her entire face turned bright
red.
Meanwhile, the three teenagers across from them were at a loss upon hearing that. What's Daddy talking about
here? Why don't we understand a single word?
Clearly, they were all good and innocent children.
Needless to say, Sebastian wouldn't put things so bluntly either.
According to the diary Eddie left, he was an exceedingly depraved man. He had a physical defect, yet he craved
women. Therefore, one could only imagine how wretched he was.
However, the Heard family arranged for their daughter to serve him at that time.
No one knew what happened then, but judging from the current situation, Elizabeth even wanted to make a
comeback for him.
Hence, her experience then must have been pretty great, more so than that with her legal husband, Alfred.
All that was sufficient to prove his point.
“Fine. Since you want to put it in such a manner, I admit that I indeed made a mistake this time. But it never
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmoccurred to you either that you'd die at the hands of your own son in the end, no?” said Sebastian.
“He was nothing more than a piece of trash!”
Elizabeth was so resentful that her expression contorted in fury, and she gritted her teeth hard. She was Colton's
mother, but at the mention of the man right then, she seemingly detested him so much that she wished he would
never be reincarnated even after his death.
When Ian heard that, he grew so livid that he stepped forward and slapped her.
“You're the piece of trash! Can you compare with him? Do you think you can still make something of yourself after
Eddie's death by leading those small fries? Let me tell you that anyone with half a brain should do as he did.
Surviving takes precedence over everything else!”
He enunciated every single word as he tore into her. He had always been indifferent, but for the first time ever, he
blew up in front of that despicable woman.
He was incandescent for no other reason than the final remark Colton said to him.
The man asserted that Duncan's death had nothing to do with Ian. Instead, it was all his doing.
One might wonder whether Colton was dumb to the core, but that wasn't true.
He was actually incredibly smart.
No one knew when he became aware of his background, but whether he knew or otherwise, he had always lived in
obscurity at The Ataraxy.
Even someone as shrewd as Sebastian didn't notice anything amiss with him.
It was because he knew that when one wanted to continue living despite the lethal dangers around oneself, the only
thing one could do was to play safe and protect himself.q
