Chapter 855
“My doubts were unfounded, I shouldn’t have suspected you.” Duncan kissed Mireille’s delicate face
gently. His suspicions the previous night arose because of her untimely appearance. After investigating
Tanner Group Pharmacy yesterday through his probes and
subordinates, he confirmed that Mireille had indeed passed by the
estate unintentionally. Moreover, they had consummated their
relationship. She was now his woman, and continuing to doubt her
would only hurt her.
“Mireille, do you… do you love me?” Duncan suddenly asked,
stuttering.
Mireille shook her head and replied, “No.”
Duncan smiled bitterly, his eyes losing their luster. Perhaps… she had acted impulsively under the
influence of alcohol?
“Fool, feelings need time to develop!” Mireille chuckled, trying her best to show that she was gradually
accepting Duncan.
“Then, let’s take our time to develop them.” Duncan raised his arm, pulling the woman into his
embrace.

Bay.
There was a vibrant and colorful cloud formation in the direction they were looking at. Peter narrowed
his eyes and said, “A celestial phenomenon has occurred. Looks like Nash has successfully refined

the Golden Onyx Pill!”

“So what? Can he break through to the Mystique Loyalty Realm in just one day after refining and
assimilating the effects of the pill? Even if he does, it will be a piece of cake for me to kill him!” The
Swordsman proclaimed with his hand behind his back, confident and spirited.
“Nash is so young yet he managed to refine a fifth-grade elixir. His talent in alchemy is truly terrifying. If
it weren’t for Duncan insisting on killing him, I would have liked to befriend him.” Boris sighed.
While the martial arts world in Drakonia was flourishing, true alchemy masters were rare, and those
who could refine fifth-grade elixirs were even rarer. Nash was a young man in his twenties. For him to
be able to produce such an elixir marked him as truly exceptional. If left to
grow, he was bound to overturn the entire martial arts world.
Peter frowned. “Did you guys hear something?”
Boris and The Swordsman perked up their ears and listened. After a
moment, the two exchange smiles.
“It’s been a long time since I had some fun. Duncan better a few lively maidens to satisfy my desires
once I’m done killin
Peter stroked his beard and laughed. “Mature women are much
than those youngins.”
Boris at Peter in surprise. “Aren’t priests supposed to stay away fro worldly desires? Have you been
lusting after women in the secula
world?”
Peter roared with hearty laughter. “The Path doesn’t accept me, even though I wear their robes and
practice their arts. I’ve never considered
myself a Path taker, so of course, I don’t need to abide by those rules
and regulations!”
Soon, it was noon time. Duncan kissed Mireille’s forehead. The
woman had already fallen back asleep. He whispered, “Rest. I’ll be

After that, he grabbed a set of clothes from the wardrobe, put them
on, tidied his hair, and then left the room, carefully closing the door
behind him.
Mireille opened her eyes, a chill in her gaze. Dragging her tired body
out of the bed, she went into the bathroom and turned on the tap to
wash everything away with cold water.
In the living room, Duncan was in a meeting with his three godfathers,
legs crossed and a half-smoked cigarette in his hand.
“I’ll have to trouble you all to accompany me to visit the Zells, Lees,
and Watsons the next two hours. As long as we get fifty percent of
the families’s equities, the Jonford business world will be under our
control!”
Today, the Duerson family would rise.
Half an hour later, Duncan, accompanied by his three godfathers and a group of elite bodyguards,
headed toward the Watson residence.
