I’m Someone Else

Chapter 333

Earlier on, Feliciano getting destroyed with only one move could be blamed on his carelessness, but how did one explain Enrico’s defeat this time? He was significantly more powerful than Feliciano, but he still couldn’t take one move from the other party. It went to show that the masked man was terrifyingly formidable.

“Damn it!” Reuben cursed furiously. The outcome he had dreaded to see eventually happened nonetheless.

Similarly, the corners of Leah’s lips twitched, and she sported a grim expression.

However, there was nothing they could do apart from fuming deep within. The party that attained two wins out of three rounds would be the winner. That was the rule they had set. Now that Leah and Reuben were defeated, it meant that Olivia would no longer be used as the bargaining chip for the two families to gain their vested interests.

If they were in any other place, Reuben would’ve flared up and snatched Olivia away. Rules weren’t so important when one was powerful enough to break them. Nevertheless, he couldn’t do such a thing in the Travis Residence. Regardless of how reckless he was, he didn’t dare to cause a scene here.

People were terrified of the Flynns not because they were powerful but because they had a hidden sect’s support. Such a background made them very influential. Rarely any families in Capitalis had such support.

The crux of the problem was that the Travises had a hidden sect behind them as well, and theirs was even more powerful than the one behind the Flynns.

Kyrie rose to his feet and announced unenthusiastically, “Alright, everyone. The result is right before our eyes. You may go home now, Reuben and Leah.”

“Dad, I want Olivia! I—”

Before Gunnar could finish his words, Reuben lifted his hand and gave his son a hard slap in the face. Stop embarrassing me! We’re the losers, and there’s no point saying such things now. Do you want me to snatch Olivia away? Even your grandfather doesn’t have the guts to do such a thing, let alone me. Stop trying to throw me under the bus!

Gunnar was dumbfounded following the slap. He was rooted to the spot, looking puzzled.

Am I separated from Olivia just like this? She’s the one I can never forget about!

Despite his grievances, he had no choice but to accept his fate. Since even his father didn’t have a solution, he naturally didn’t dare to make a fuss.

Theodore and the others approached the Flynns and the Wilkersons with only one purpose, which was to mock them. Aren’t you all very powerful and haughty? Go on throwing your weights around now!

“I’ve always heard that the Flynns are extraordinarily powerful. They indeed live up to their name!”

“That’s right. Besides the Flynns, the Wilkersons are also impressively formidable. I’m blown away!”

“That’s such an eye-opener. Thank you for letting the two powerful cultivators go on stage. We enjoyed the show very much. Haha!”

“By the way, what was the move the two martial arts experts used earlier on? Flying Backward and Falling to Bottom? Hahaha!”

Theodore said to Reuben with a smile, “Mr. Reuben, weren’t you adamant when you were in the Flynn Residence back then? Why are you so puny now? That’s not right. You don’t even look like yourself now. You have to toughen up!”

Faced with their mockery, Reuben and Leah gritted their teeth as their faces flushed with anger.

If they were not in the Travis Residence, they would’ve made a move and taught these awful people a lesson. However, since they were in the Travis Residence, Reuben could only threaten them by saying, “Just you wait! I’ll never let you off!”

Theodore shrugged and said, “Bring it on! It’s not like I’m afraid of you.”

Well, you’re not the only one with a hidden sect’s support. We have one behind our family too!

While standing beside Reuben, Leah growled suddenly, “How dare you show up, Thomas!”

All of them turned around and saw Thomas coming over. He was followed by John and Samuel.

Kyrie, who was seated, squinted and studied the young man. The descendant of his deceased friend valued Thomas very much, so he would like to know what made the young man stand out from the rest.

Theodore quickly approached them and greeted them. “Mr. Clifford, Old Mr. Morton, and Old Mr. Peralta, you’re finally here!”

Then, he told them about how the Flynns and the Wilkersons were defeated. Upon hearing his tale, the three of them weren’t surprised one bit, for it was the outcome they had expected. Since the Travises had sent their own contender to participate in the fight, it was only natural that the two families were defeated. After all, they were less powerful than the Travises.

With rage burning behind his gaze, Reuben asked Leah, “Is that Thomas?”

“Yes, that’s him. I thought he was dead. I didn’t expect that he’s still alive!”

Leah was astounded that Thomas was still alive and kicking. It’s said that the six old monsters have decided to kill Thomas. Why is he still alive? Is he powerful enough to escape unscathed from the six old monsters? That’s impossible!

“Thomas!” A voice that sounded as pleasant as a spring breeze was heard. Following that, Olivia, who was clad in a long white dress, came into everyone’s sight.

Despite her bloodshot eyes, she was still very elegant. Moreover, she had an alluring face and a curvy figure. Everyone had an illusion that she was a fairy who had just descended into the mortal world, not a human girl living in this world.

They watched as Olivia crashed into Thomas’ arms, and her tears slid down her face uncontrollably. “I’ve been waiting for you! I thought you’d decided to dump me!”

Thomas wrapped his arms around the woman and patted her back while placating her, saying, “I’ll never dump you. Don’t you remember that I’ve promised to protect you forever?”

He subconsciously looked around and noticed the hostile gazes. He was bashful, so he felt waves of embarrassment coursing through him. “Psst! Olivia, let’s do the reuniting thing later. Everyone’s looking!”

“No! I’ll only feel safe in your arms!” Olivia shook her head and refused his request. She had been suffering from insomnia and hadn’t had the appetite to eat much for the past few days because she missed the man badly. Now that he was right before her eyes, she made sure to stay in his arms for as long as she could. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Thomas felt helpless, but it wasn’t like he could push Olivia away, as that’d only embarrass her. Left with no choice, he could only stay put and ignore the onlookers. He wouldn’t lose an ounce of flesh just because they kept looking at him, anyway.
