Chapter 460
Buckminster Payne’s video showed a conversation between Philip Labenz and Fletcher Yuler.
The gist of the conversation was very simple. Philip gave Fletcher a large sum of money and told the latter to kill Reign Labenz and Haylan Jaber on the ship.
Fletcher asked for a higher price, and the two haggled. In the end, the deal was closed for six million dollars.
As Reign watched the video, her expression turned as ominous as stormy weather. She gritted her teeth and blurted out angrily, “Bastard!
“I know that he has something against me and is always going against me at every opportunity. But it has never once occurred to me that he would actually try to kill me!”
When Reign thought of this, she became so ‘enraged that her whole body trembled.
In the Labenz family, although Reign was the high and mighty CEO and the one at the helm of the company, she could not dominate the company, and her words did not carry
absolute authority.
Many elders and important figures were all on Philip Labenz’s side, in direct opposition to her.
All these years, if it weren’t for Mr. Albert Labenz supporting her all the while, Reign might not have been able to keep her position as CEO.
Reign Labenz was a kind person who respected the old and loved the young. Most of the time, she would counter Philip Labenz’s deliberate attempts to make things difficult
for her move by move. As long as she could defuse the crisis, she would just let things be and rarely retaliated against Philip.
The last time Reign was in Constrax District, Gregory Labenz tried to kill her under Philip Labenz’s orders.
At that time, she had found some clues that Philip intended to murder her. As she did not have any evidence and she treasured kinship, she had not retaliated against Philip.
Instead, she dropped hints and insinuations on the side, hoping that Philip would restrain himself.
Reign never once imagined that Philip could be so downright vicious and despicable!
He actually tried to take her life time and again, with absolutely no regard for kinship at all.
As Haylan puffed away at the cigarette, he said icily, “It’s not just once or twice that he tries to kill you. It’s also not the first
time he tries to kill me!

Haylan’s voice was filled with a chilly killing intent.
In order to hide his identity and live a normal life in the city, he could endure many things.
However, Philip Labenz had repeatedly tried to kill him. This had already crossed the line as far as Haylan was concerned.
Reign turned off the cell phone and gritted her teeth. Her eyes were filled with iciness as she said. “Gather the evidence and send him to jail. Make him squat in jail for life!”
“So simple?” Haylan asked.
Reign was caught off guard. She suddenly turned to look at Haylan. “You… you’re not thinking of killing him, are you?” “He has already tried to kill me twice. If this were during
normal circumstances, he would have already died,” Haylan said. Previously, Philip had secretly hired David White to poison him. Fortunately, David mended his ways and told
Haylan about this matter. Haylan also possessed a body that was immune to all poisons. He simply swallowed the poison directly and offered David some benefits, thereby
successfully instigating David to defect.
This time, Philip tried to join forces with Fletcher Yuler to kill Haylan on the Swan Cruise ship.
The repeated attempts to hire someone to take Haylan’s life made Haylan want to kill.
“Twice?” Reign was puzzled.
He once hired David White to poison me. You were unaware,” Haylan said.
“What?”
Reign’s expression changed drastically when she heard that. Her pretty face turned ominous again as she said icily. “Looks like this person can’t be allowed to live!”
“Let me think of a countermeasure first. This time, I will definitely give you an appropriate answer.
Reign was really furious this timet
Philip Labenz had become more and more unscrupulous. It was fine if he only wanted to kill her time and again, but he
actually wanted to kill Haylan Jaber too. Such a vicious and despicable person must not be allowed to live anymore. Haylan puffed away at his cigarette as he gazed at the sea
in silence.
At this point, Sybil Labenz came up to Haylan, accompanied by Slayder Zoner.
She was wearing a hat that completely covered her hair.
Slayder stood upright like a pillar, standing guard by Sybil’s side with extreme vigilance.
Sybil was sizing up Haylan. The more she looked at him, the more she regarded him favorably. Her eyes were filled with fanatical adulation. “Mr. Jaber, it’s a pleasure to meet
you. My name is Sybil Labenz.”
With that, she extended her hand to Haylan, her eyes shining brightly.
“Good day, Your Highness, Haylan was slightly surprised as he shook hands with Princess Carina, his cigarette still dangling from his lips.
Carina was a princess of the royal family. She should have led a pampered and indulgent life since young. Her hands should be fair and soft as if there were no bones inside.
Instead, Haylan felt a thick layer of calluses on Carina’s hand
This was the result of years of boxing training and gun-shooting practices!
“Shh…”
Sybil’s expression changed at once when she heard Haylan’s greeting. She quickly pressed her right index finger against her fiery red, luscious lips and made a gesture of
silence. She said in a low voice, ‘Keep your voice down. Don’t reveal my identity.”
“Your Highness, why are you looking for us?” Reign asked Princess Carina.
“Mr. Jaber, I admire you very much. Can you come back to Arctodus Kingdom with me? I guarantee that at Arctodus Kingdom, you can definitely become a high-ranking
official. At the very least, you will be the chief instructor of the military force, hold great power and become a duke with your own fiefdom!” Sybil extended her offer to Haylan
excitedly. Sybil liked to read the martial arts s from Longhard Kingdom and idolized the heroic characters in them. However, in modern society, she had never met a
hero and was extremely disappointed.
Then, not long ago, she saw Haylan Jaber go on a killing spree everywhere, foil Buckminster’s dastardly plan, and gave treatment to so many victims as well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis made Sybil extremely excited!
Haylan Jaber was the hero she had been looking for!
“Hold great power? Become a duke with his own fiefdom?” Reign was utterly shocked when she heard that.
Sybil certainly lived up to her reputation as a princess. The moment she opened her mouth, she immediately offered a dukeship and a fiefdom.
“Your Highness, have you been hanging out with Xander Zoran for so long that you have picked up his boastful habits?” Haylan asked with a frown.
“I’m serious!” Princess Carina said.
“According to the rules of your Arctodus Kingdom, if one wants to hold power and become the chief instructor of the military force, one has to accomplish outstanding military
achievements. That person must also hail from a reputable” family. If he is not from a prestigious family, he can’t take up important positions.”
Haylan released Sybil’s hand and took a puff of his cigarette. He then smiled and said, “The official position you promised me can’t be implemented in the Arctodus Kingdom.
“You want to use this method to trick me into going to Arctodus Kingdom. Do you think I’m easy to deceive?”
Reign was stunned momentarily.
A dignified princess actually resorted to lies?
Princess Carina looked at Haylan earnestly and said in a low voice, “I’m not lying to you. As long as you’re willing to marry me, you will become a nobleman of Arctodus
Kingdom. It’ll be easy for you to become a duke with your own fiefdom When Haylan heard this, the cigarette in his mouth almost dropped to the ground.
Reign was even more astounded.
Even Slayder stood rooted to the ground in shock.
The three of them widened their eyes and looked at Princess Carina in utter disbelief. “Your Highness, are you serious?
West Haylan, if you’re willing to come to our Arctodus Kingdom, I’m willing to marry you. Let’s get married
Princess Carina looked at Haylan excitedly. Her face was full of fanatical anticipation as she said, “We will have many, many children. You will teach them martial arts. I will
teach them to paint and play various musical instruments. We will become a family of heroes together. What do you think?”
Reign and Slayder were utterly dumbstruck.
Princess Carina was proposing to Haylan Jaber?
