Secret Marriage:The Wolf And The Sheep Chapter 52
Advertisement
As Xie Eun lay on the bed staring at the ceiling,she wondered when the man had raised his mask.She did not know why but she always dropped her guard in front of him.Wondering on the mystery of the man that was her husband,Xie Eun quickly fell asleep.Meanwhile, Wolf worked through the night to orchestrate the events that would happen in the next few hours,while the people who had incurred the wrath of the man planned happily their steps after their impending success.
Old Lady Lu and Yeona sat at the breakfast table in the Lu mansion. The others sitting were quietly eating their breakfast unaware of the glint in the old woman and her granddaughter's eyes. Old Lady Lu and Yeona were over the moon that today that silly chit would not be able to come to the Lawyer's office.As per the terms of will,if she did not come forward to claim her right,the stocks and shares would naturally be passed onto the next heir.Naturally with the fate she must have faced last night,it would be a wonder if she was even alive..In fact even if she was alive after those dirty men were done with her,Xie Eun may not have any will to live.After all she had been double betrayed by her love Si Jing.
And even if the girl was thick skinned enough to show her face in public and continue to live,no man would accept such used goods. Plus she had received the call from the Alpha Group of Companies a few hours ago to clarify the matter regarding Xie Eun and this proved that the contract that she had shown at the party was a fake one.Alpha Group was not one to let go of a someone who had used their name easily.She was going to be sued within an inch of her life!A small smirk graced the woman's face at the impending doom of her own grand daughter. She checked her dummy phone,the one that she had been using to contact the kidnappers.She had asked the men to click some pictures of Xie Eun in action with them so that those old coots who were trustees would know and be disgusted.. Satisfied with the breakfast,Old Lady Lu gingerly wiped her lips on a napkin and stood up. Yeona followed suit and the two women left the room without turning back taking away the air of oppression with them..But as they left the room,they missed a pair of eyes that followed their path with hatred..

At Lawyer Wen's office:
It was 10.00 am and Lawyer Wen had already been at work for a few hours. His secretary entered with a perfunctory knock on the door and placed a cup of tea in front of the man.The table was scattered with papers everywhere and the lawyer himself looked like he had been in a battle She wondered what was the identity of the person coming in today.She had never seen her boss so frazzled.In fact all the employees had been strictly told to behave themselves to the highest standard.They had even been warned about the none disclosure agreements they had signed when they started working here.The secretary somehow felt that this had to be related to the visit from the girl who had come to the office two days ago.
The girl had come in without an appointment but insisted on waiting for the boss..Xie Eun,she knew the name now..It had been trending as the hottest news since last night.She looked at the case files and helped with the tidying up,organising the papers effectively.After a few minutes,Lawyer Wen had automatically picked up the cup and almost spit out the drink he had sipped,before roaring,"Why is my blackbcoffee replaced with tea?"
The secretary innocently blinked her eyes and said,"Because grandma called and warned us against giving you any coffee!"
The old man deflated like a balloon after his grand daughter cum secretary pointed out,that his wife had ordered so.He rubbed his forehead and sighed tiredly.He was too old for this. He looked at Shan Shan who was unable to control her curiosity and was reading the legal papers spread in front of her.Sigh!Shan Shan was under training to take over the firm so it was a good thing that she would learn from this complicated case..But she was too young and impulsive and he feared that her animosity towards Yeona may make her spill the beans..

Maybe it was time to test his Shan Shan.But before the old lawyer could say anything,Wen Shan blew out a curse uncaring of her grandfather's sensibilities and said,"What kind of a fuc*** up will is this?Is it even legally valid?"

The Isekai Police (aka "Earth's Advocates")
When evil kings summon kids from Earth to be used and abused as fast-leveling soldiers in their petty wars, the Isekai Police will be there to stop them. A group of ex-isekai protagonists in their own right, they utilize their collective skills to fight for the end of summoning abuse. Artyom Choi, cynical ex-hero and founding member of the organization, is sent to investigate the presence of an Earther on an innocently idyllic World where no summoning has supposedly taken place. His mission: rescue the Earther and figure out how he got there. Dark secrets lie beneath the surface of paradise, however. Will he be able to find this new hero and get out before whatever malicious forces brought them there doom them both? Book 1 has been finished! You can read Book 2 here in parallel or even before Book 1 if you want more TOAL than Artyom! https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/47708/the-isekai-police-hero-summonings-are-overrated This story is meant to be a deconstruction of the isekai genre that references and sometimes pokes fun at various tropes. Artyom isn’t some kid whose goal is to amass Levels or a harem. In fact, all he cares about is protecting other Earthers, and won’t let anything like that get in the way! So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr

The Card Thief of Culnivar
Deep with the cozy kingdom of Daeton, among the generation-old farmlands and villages, a young farmer’s daughter stumbles upon a dead man. His elaborate clothing has been torn to ribbons, yet his skin remains unblemished. His face is peaceful, and tucked into the hand lying across his chest can be seen a solitary playing card. He is a Ludum Haeres. The last remnant of a Summoner. Numbered among those few capable of changing their destinies. The unseen rulers of the world known as Vesperia, and one of the most powerful creatures in existence. The woman knows none of this. And so, she picks up the card... This is my third novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the second being "The Dawnfire Archives". This story is something of a test in a new genre, that of CardLIT. We'll see how well it succeeds as the story continues. It takes place in a different setting than my other tales, with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.
