'What just happened?'
Wesley's guards also widened their eyes in surprise, one of them immediately went to the refreshments and smell it.
The guy has a green saber on his waist that shines as if it's boasting its sharpness, the guy's body is lean but muscular, a scar on his neck and his snake-like eyes is the guy's trait that Rex immediately caught.
He frowns before he brings the glass up, and to his surprise, the water is lumpy and thick.
The guy tilts the glass left and right before he nodded his head, "The drink is poisoned, someone tries to poison you, sir"
Hearing this, Wesley immediately looks at Rex.
His body started to emit an intense aura as he suspected that Rex is the culprit, but Rex immediately defended, "If I'm the one who poison the drink, why would I put a poison in my drink too"
Wesley look at Rex's glass and found that it is also lumpy and thick.
"You could've just staged it all, you're still our main suspect", One of Wesley's guards said while staring dagger at Rex.
His hand is already on the hilt of his sword, ready to strike at any moment.
BAM!
Rex slam the table before he added angrily, "If I'm the one who poisons it! I wouldn't sacrifice my friend! I'm going through this length to make a deal is all for those who are close to me!"
The same guy that checks the drink before then argued, "Considering you sold that woman there, I think that woman is not that precious after all"
The tension kept rising as Rex and the guy stares at each other, neither of them wanted to back down.
Wesley looks at the both of them speechlessly before he intervenes, "Hans stand back, you too Rex. Don't make me break the deal right now"
Hearing this, Rex shut his mouth.
But then, one of the guard's phones rang catching everybody's attention.
The guard went to Wesley hurriedly before he kneel and said, "Sir, it's the Reed Family, sir! Our Factories got attacked and raided by them"
Wesley widened his eyes in shock, he was at a loss for words.
Rex's lips quirk up a little after hearing the news, 'It seems that detective and Deniz guy succeeded their part, all is going according to plan'
Hans saw Rex's slight smile, he squinted his eyes while looking at Rex.
Seeing this, Rex immediately changes his expression into a sad expression before he helps Adhara.
Wesley gritted his teeth before he commanded, "That lousy cock-suckers! Let's go back right now, we'll make it if we hurry back right now"
"Yes, Sir!", all the guards said in a union.
Just when Wesley was about to leave, he turns to his back once more.
He looks at Rex before he said, "Where is the spellbook?"
Hearing this, Rex immediately takes the spellbook in his suit pocket before he gave the spellbooks to Wesley.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWesley gave the spellbooks to Hans before he left the place.
After he left, Hans is still looking at Rex suspiciously before he scans the spellbooks making sure that it is real.
"I'll be watching you", Hans said, he then taps the screen on his phone.
Not long after, Rex's phone rings before Hans left the place.
Rex is currently caressing Adhara's body on the floor with eyes full of tears, his expression instantly went back to stoic after Hans left.
The act of crying for Adhara's death is only an act to fool the Atkins Family.
He waited for a while after he sensed that all of the Atkins are gone.
After they all gone back to defend their factories, Rex nudge Adhara's shoulder, "Wake up, they have already left"
Adhara's eyes tremble before she opened their eyes.
She was greeted by Rex tidying his clothes while loosening up his collar, Adhara is still angry at Rex as she stands up.
"Why did you say that?", Adhara asks angrily.
The veins on her neck are bulging as she tries to hold back her anger, she's offended by Rex's words that wanted to sell her for $10 million.
Turns out that the poison is Rex's doing, he deliberately told Adhara to drink the vial with blue substance in it because it is the antidote for the Demon Scorpion Venom.
It is a poison that can easily kill a rank five Awakened he bought from the shop.
Although Wesley is probably a rank eight Awakened, it's not the lethality of the poison but the motive behind it that matters.
For him, someone trying to poison him is an insult.
Rex knows of this exactly that is why he does this,
He has to make the Atkins Family sees him as a harmless person, that is why he gave Wesley the poison in hope that their focus will turn to the Reed Family.
The phonecall on one of Wesley's guards arrive at the perfect time,
Now, Rex can be sure that Wesley will think that Reed Family figured out that they stole the spellbooks and tries to poison him.
It's not a perfect plan, but it still does the job.
Rex glance at Adhara briefly before he said, "I already told you, Don't take my words to heart"
Adhara approaches Rex without even listening to Rex, she glare at Rex with tears in her eyes before she pushed Rex.
"Hey! Calm down!", Rex said trying to calm Adhara down.
But his effort didn't work at all, Adhara kept pushing and punching him with tears in her eyes.
"YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT! YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THAT!", Adhara shouted, she's still struggling while Rex tries to hold her hands.
Rex got punched a couple of times as he tries to explain, "I need to say that to entice Wesley, he seems to like you but of course I'm not going to sell you away. Don't misunderstand"
But all of Rex's explanation is still futile, Adhara becomes even more aggressive.
After getting punched a couple of times, Rex started to get tired of the situation as he add a little force and pin Adhara to the wall.
He hold both of Adhara's hands with his right hand, and he slid his leg between Adhara's leg to stop her from going anywhere.
"You don't have to say that, You don't have to say that", Adhara said, her voice is getting smaller and smaller.
Rex hold Adhara's head on his chest as Adhara started to cry,
He doesn't expect that what he said will make Adhara this angry, Rex thought that she will just shrug it off like nothing.
Adhara kept crying on Rex's chest, his chest started to get wet because of her tears.
After about five minutes of crying, Rex finally said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that my words will hurt you this badly"
Hearing this, Adhara didn't reply.
She still sobbing lightly before her sobbing stops.
Adhara raises her head to meet Rex's eyes, she looks at Rex's eyes with her beautiful round eyes before she said, "What are we exactly?"
Rex looks at Adhara's eyes, his eyes widened when he heard her words.
His usual stoic expression that he can maintain in any situation crumbles instantly, he widened his eyes like a kid getting surprised.
Rex was at a loss for words as he still pinning Adhara on the wall.
Adhara raises her left eyebrows hauntingly before she repeats, but this time it's even slower than before, "What...Are...We?"
The atmosphere becomes tense, Rex can feel the weird feeling again.
It's like some emotional beast waking up inside of him, and every time it wakes up makes all the things about Adhara even more attractive.
The rune on her neck, the Silverstar Mark on her neck, her heavy breathing, her jet-black hair that falls to her waist, the sweat on her forehead, everything about her becomes even more attractive.
Rex even unconsciously leans closer to Adhara's neck, her scent penetrates Rex's nose instantly.
Adhara clenched her hands after feeling Rex's warm breath sizzling her skin, her legs feel weak as she wrap her left hand around Rex's neck.

The notification from the system appeared in front of Rex but Rex's mind is somewhere else, he touches Adhara's fair collarbone and slowly follows its path.
Adhara jolted after feeling Rex's touch, it makes her breathing heavier.
Not long, Rex's hand arrives at the end of Adhara's collarbone and meets her neck.
Without even hesitating, Rex gripped Adhara's neck before both of their eyes lock onto each other with a burning passion.
Rex's eyes then fall to Adhara's lips, he gulped roughly feeling his throat dry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe beast inside Rex becomes even crazier as Rex looks at Adhara's lips, he began to be unable to hold on to the urges he has.
His body trembles before he finally leans in closer and kissed Adhara's lips.
Click!
Both of their lips united as lust takes over their body, their action becomes even daring when their lips finally united.
Rex lifts Adhara's body before he put Adhara on the table while still kissing her, It becomes even wild as Adhara's hand travels to Rex's chest.
Her hands started to unbuttoned Rex's clothes without caring for their surrounding, glasses, and plates fall to the ground and shattering.
Their animalistic urges take control as both of them indulge their lust.
Unknown to both of them, Rex's body glows with a blue aura that started to envelop both of them like a cocoon.
His nails unconsciously turn into claws, it happens without Rex even noticing.
Rex's breathing started to become heavier, he's already barechested right now.
He holds Adhara's left thigh while still roughly kissing her, his mind becomes even crazier when he can feel Adhara's smooth skin on his hand.
Adhara started to moan when Rex's lips travel to her neck, she felt a slight sting when Rex gripped her thigh.
Rex's claw scratches her, "Rex...Your claws, you're way too excited", Adhara said, she even need to take a couple of deep breaths while saying this.
She's trying to tell Rex about his claws to no avail.
At this point,
Adhara can't stop Rex even when she wants to, but right now, she doesn't want to.
She just wants to indulge at the moment, and let Rex do whatever he wants.
Just as Rex lift Adhara's dress up and give in to lust, the door suddenly opened before Edward and Kyran walk inside.
Looking at the messy scene, Edward immediately covers Kyran's eyes.
Edward was shocked when he saw Rex and Adhara on the table sticking close with each other, he thought that Rex is currently doing something as he said, "Oops, I'll come back later"
Rex and Adhara stops,
Adhara looks back while hugging Rex's head while Rex is steadying his breathing, he even felt annoyed a little because of the interruptions.
'Damn', Rex thought when he saw his claws.
He doesn't hear what Adhara said before, he got careless because of his lust.
"It's okay, let's leave this place", Rex said while tidying his clothes, he even gulped a couple of times after seeing Adhara's messy appearance.
Her dress is all tangled up, there's a kiss mark on her neck, her heavy breathing and her droopy eyes make her even hotter.
But Rex finally got a grip of himself,
"I assume the deal went well, considering you both do that", Edward said while nudging Rex's waist to tease him.
Rex pushed Edward away followed by Edward's laugh.
He then said, "Yep, I got the money. All we need to do is give the spellbooks to the Reed now, and it's all going to be over"
Adhara tidied her clothes while Rex is saying this.
Rex looks at Adhara one last time before he left the room, 'Damn It'
