Kneeling down, her voice wavered. “Wallace, I’m so sorry... I shouldn’t have sent you to look for those heartless
people. You devils, you killed Wallace! I curse you!”
Zeke stared at the old lady with mixed feelings. “I finally understand why she has such a strong belief that her
family is still alive.”
“Why?” Sole Wolf asked out of curiosity.
“These remnants on the tablets have been influencing her thinking. Besides, I picked up something from that sense
of resolve.”
“What?” Sole Wolf asked.
Zeke explained, “Pietro knew I’ll come, so he left me a message. He reminds me to search for these men at all
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcosts because there’s a shocking secret hidden within them. This message probably influenced the old lady as well,
so she insisted on sending her last son to the battlefield.”
Damn.
Sole Wolf gaped in shock. “Is your master some sort of deity?”
Zeke rubbed his temples. “Things are more complicated than I thought.”
At that moment, the house’s door was suddenly opened, and an emaciated, buck-toothed youngster barged inside.
Seeing who had arrived, the old lady’s expression changed instantly, and she rushed outside.
As soon as the youngster stepped into the backyard, he took the bamboo basket that the old lady weaved and tried
to escape with it.
However, the elderly grabbed onto the basket and protested, “Hold it right there! This is mine. How dare you steal it
from me!”
Furiously, the youngster yelled back, “Old lady, let go! I’ll sell this and give you the money later.”
However, the old lady maintained her tight grip. “Let go of it right now. You thief!”
“Senile old fart.” The agitated guy tugged on the basket and snatched it away.
“I’m the only one you can count on now, so what’s the issue in me taking one basket from you?”
With a sudden push, the buck-tooth youngster sent the old lady reeling to the ground.
F***!
Sole Wolf’s eyes were bloodshot.
How dare he hurt someone from such noble family!
Absolutely preposterous!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith a huge stride, Sole Wolf rushed forwards and broke the old lady’s fall.
At the same time, he gave the youngster a kick.
The latter was sent flying, and he spat out mouthfuls of blood when he landed.
Meanwhile, the elderly sighed in despair when she saw the ruined basket.
“Sigh. It’s all damaged now...”
Her livelihood depended on the basket, so it was no surprise that she was devastated by it.
Sole Wolf asked, “Madam, who’s that? Why was he snatching your basket?”
The old lady replied, “He’s my nephew. That bas**** sold most of the bamboo baskets I weaved and wasted all the
money away.”
Damn it!
Sole Wolf’s eyes glinted murderously.
He could work to feed himself. Yet, he chose to become a parasite of a poor old lady!
Sole Wolf despised people like him the most, so he made up his mind to teach the guy a lesson.
He helped the old lady up and left the yard.
