Chapter 304 This plan really couldn’t be any better
Hearing Wesley say this, Lila’s expression turned quite sour. She didn’t sit down but instead said through clenched teeth, “Wesley, we’ve only met today. Although there are some decisions made by our families, I am not your girlfriend yet.”
“Ha ha ha!” Wesley burst into laughter upon hearing Lila’s words, “Indeed, indeed! We just met today, after all. So, what do you think? Are we a good match?”
Lila looked conflicted, her fists clenched. Finally, she said, “I don’t think we are suitable for each other!”
“Then…” Wesley’s smile did not wane as he said, “Miss Carter, goodbye!”
Wesley suddenly paused, then looked at Lila with a mischievous expression and waved his hand, “No, what I mean is, goodbye forever!”
William curiously watched Lila and Wesley. What was this situation?
It seemed like these two were set up by their families, but they didn’t seem to like each other!
But the sinister air about Wesley made William feel as though Lila might have some leverage in his hands
Lila also hesitated for a moment before turning to leave without even acknowledging William, apparently quite upset.
William watched Lila’s retreating figure, then looked at Wesley and noticed his glance fleetingly pass over Alice.
Really? What a melodramatic twist!
Could it be that Wesley had rejected Lila because he was interested in Alice?
In terms of beauty, Lila is not inferior to Alice, and when it comes to a voluptuous figure, Alice can’t even compare with others.
“William, you must be curious about what’s going on between Miss Carter and me, right?” Wesley looked disdainfully at Lila as she walked away, adopting a superior air. “You must know about Evelyn, the Soulmancer from New York.”
William nodded. This matter was related to Evelyn?
Wesley toyed with the wine glass in his hand and chuckled coldly, “I heard that Evelyn is quite capable. Even the people from the 13th Bureau couldn’t do anything when they approached her. Recently, she began acquiring some companies in New York, naturally affecting the Carter family.”
“The Carter family wants to form a marital alliance with our Johnson family, looking for a backer. It’s as simple as that.” Wesley said this with a more sinister smile, “I must say, Miss Carter does have some charm, but after all, she’s just a mortal. How could I, a Soulmancer, possibly be interested in her?”
“Ah, I see,” William seemed to understand something.
Evelyn’s recent actions had indeed been significant, threatening the interests of many businessmen, and Anthony Carter must have been seeking a powerful ally, thus turning to the Johnson family of Texas.
Did he intend to use marriage as a way to get the Johnson family to help him deal with Evelyn?
William could understand Anthony Carter’s approach, but he still underestimated Evelyn’s strength.
Unless the Johnson family had someone with near-divine capabilities, it would be difficult for them to contend with Evelyn.
Previously, more than a hundred demigod-level individuals had been in Evelyn’s company. They were spared by William only because they hadn’t been wiped out. These ‘demigods’ were underworld warriors of Hades, knowledgeable in the secret arts of the Divine Realm. Even if there were human experts with near-divine capabilities, in this era of abundant energy, they would unlikely be a match for them.
Wesley paused, his gaze falling on Alice beside him, and smiled, “Bro, is this lady your girlfriend?”
“Hm? No!” William shook his head, finally getting to the main point, it seemed.
His target was indeed Alice.
“Oh?” Wesley’s eyes brightened upon hearing William’s response and asked, “If I saw correctly just now, this lady is an intermediate Soulmancer, right?”
William nodded again, curious to see what Wesley was up to.
Was it because he saw Alice that he decided to get on good terms with William?
This was getting interesting.
“William, it’s getting late. Why don’t you take this lady home?” Wesley suggested with a smile, “Bro, meeting such a friend is quite a stroke of luck for you!”
“Alright! We’ll drink together some other time,” William decided to do as Wesley suggested.
He asked William to take the person home, so he would do just that. William just felt that there was more to it than met the eye.
But what was this guy up to?
William picked up Alice around the waist, smiled at Wesley, and then walked out of the bar. As for the remaining drinks, William didn’t bother to save them, believing he would not come back in the future.
Along the way, Alice remained in a deep sleep, and William carried her leisurely through the streets.
Sure enough, Wesley didn’t disappoint him, stealthily following behind.
All along the way, Alice remained in a deep sleep, and William carried her leisurely through the streets.
Sure enough, Wesley did not disappoint him and sneakily followed behind.
He probably thought his abilities were far superior to William’s and that he wouldn’t be detected.
But little did he know, William was fully aware of every move he made.
“Did he not act earlier because there were too many people around?” William now understood that these Soulmancers also feared exposing their abilities in public. If they were recorded by street surveillance, the 13th Bureau would surely come knocking.
William deliberately headed towards a deserted alley with no surveillance cameras.
Alice, in his arms, had woken up but kept her eyes closed, feigning sleep.
The effects of the alcohol had somewhat worn off for Alice, and remembering her actions earlier, she almost wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
What had she done?
She had actually kissed her master!
And pinched his face?!
Oh my God!
Thinking about William’s usual sour face, she wondered if he would drive her away once he woke up.
And now, William was holding her, which inevitably made her blush and her heart race.
She absolutely couldn’t open her eyes at this moment!
Once she did, she really didn’t know how she would face William.
Huh?
Why were they walking into this dark alley?
Alice occasionally peered through her lashes to observe her surroundings, only to discover that William was carrying her into a pitch-dark alley.
Uh-oh!
This route was definitely not the way to her house or William’s.
Could her master be planning to throw her in a dumpster?
Or perhaps dig a hole and bury her on the spot?
Ah!
Even if she had gone too far, William surely wouldn’t be that harsh, right?
Or could it be…
Surely not!
If he really wanted to do something, they could have just gone to a hotel room, or directly to William’s house!
The more Alice thought about these possibilities, the faster her heart beat, but she just didn’t dare to open her eyes.
Just as William wanted to know what Wesley was planning, she wanted to know what William was intending.
William’s eyes narrowed slightly,of course, he knew Alice was awake. Since that was the case, everything was ready!
Now that Wesley had set his sights on them, it was time to lure the enemy into a trap – a classic ‘Ambush’ strategy.
His disciple being so lazy, it was time to give her a bit of motivation!
Wesley, following behind, noticed that Alice hadn’t woken up the entire time and that William had willingly entered this dark alley. Wasn’t this just playing into his hands?
In these times, methods and resources for becoming a Soulmancer were scarce. It was not unusual for Soulmancers to kill and rob each other. He had also noticed the piece of jade dragon tendon on Alice’s neck earlier. Although he couldn’t recognize what exactly that treasure was, he was certain that there must be something valuable on a mid-level Soulmancer.
It was a rare opportunity while she was drunk,not taking action would be a missed chance.
Most importantly, he could frame William for the theft, playing the hero’s role when Alice woke up. He could say that William stole her magical artifact and then chased William away.
Perhaps he could even benefit both personally and materially!
Wouldn’t picking up a girlfriend of a mid-level Soulmancer be better than settling for the Carter family’s miss?
As for William… heh, a novice Soulmancer could be killed and disposed of without a trace, and even the 13th Bureau wouldn’t be able to trace it back to him.
A plan to kill two birds with one stone and a conclusion of gaining both wealth and benefits – it couldn’t get any better.
