Chapter 366

Hades firmly believed as long as he obtained Love in a Fallen City and welcomed the almighty general, he could definitely convince the general to side with him.

When that happened, dealing with Zeke Williams would be child’s play.

After all, not a single man stood a chance against the state weapon.

Gavin was delighted at the confidence he could hear in the other man’s voice. At the same time, admiration swelled within him.

No wonder he is called Hades. Such charisma! Even Zeke Williams, a man that caused me so much anguish, is inconsequential in his eyes. What a true badass!

Glancing at the time, Hades stated, “The dust should be settling right about now.”

Eclipse stood up and walked toward the window. Peering out, he commented, “Spy is back.”

A smile curled Hades’ lips. “I hope the news he brings won’t disappoint me.”

A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door and Spy’s voice called out, “Sir, it’s me.”

Eclipse answered, “Come in.”

The door swung open, but Spy did not enter. He did not have the right.

In a rare, good mood, Hades ordered, “Come inside.”

Surprised, Spy carefully entered the office.

“Report. Did Williams hand over Love in a Fallen City?” Hades questioned.

Spy took a deep breath before he answered, “No.”

Huh?

Hades’ fingers twitched and his brows furrowed deeply. “How is that possible? I was certain I had researched Daniel Hinton’s family thoroughly. From what I found, he would be willing to agree to anything as long as his mother wasn’t moved, even give up his own life. Is Love in a Fallen City more important than his life?”

“Sir, not only did the Hinton family not exile Daniel Hinton’s mother from Hinton Hallow, but they also even buried her at the first plot...”

“In front of the first ancestor of the Hinton family?!”

What!

Hades and Eclipse’s sharp gazes bored holes into Spy’s body.

This intel was too fake to be true.

There was no way the Hinton family would bury an outsider at the first plot.

Was Spy trying to play tricks on them?

That would be impossible too! He would not dare do such a thing!

Hades demanded, “What exactly happened? Tell me everything!”

“It turns out the savior of the almighty general was actually Daniel’s mother. With this connection, of course the Hinton family would not dare mistreat her ashes.”

Eclipse and Hades traded looks with each other, their bodies tense.

How could things be such a coincidence?

But that was not the point.

More importantly, Hades had lost to Williams. Again.

He could not even remember the last time he had tasted defeat. Yet recently, time and again, he kept losing to Williams.

That was a crushing thought.

Eclipse could not help sighing, “It’s absurd how lucky this guy seems to be.”

Gavin was close to having a mental meltdown. Hades was a figure that he had looked up to as an undefeatable man, a legend.

But even he had lost against Williams, and not just once either.

If even he could not handle Williams, then Gavin making an enemy out of the man would basically be asking for trouble.

Still not willing to give up just yet, he consoled Hades, “Sir, that guy was just lucky - “

Hades cut him off harshly, “Luck is a power in and of itself.”

Gavin snapped his mouth shut, a puzzled look appearing on his face.

What does he mean by that? It almost sounds like he’s complimenting Williams! Don’t tell me he wants to win him over?

“Sir, you can’t just let him go like that...” Gavin was almost pleading with the man.

“Get out of here for now. I need to think things over and make new plans.”

“But - “

Hades threw one last glance at him, pointedly saying, “You can leave now.”

Resigned, Gavin had no choice but to leave.

Spy took the chance to slink out after him.

The moment they left; Hades laughed uproariously. “Interesting! That guy is getting more and more interesting by the day!”
