Chapter 5
The Greatest Man Alive
Nathan declined Hectorâs invitation to stay overnight and returned to Almonube Estate.
As soon as he stopped the car, he felt someone was watching him.
Nathan frowned and said coldly, âCome out!â
Several men appeared around him, and each seemed like a cruel beast.
âYour relationship with Jade seems to be very unusual. Kneel right now, or weâll break your limbs before we take you away.â A man said slowly with a cold and evil tone.
When Nathan heard Jadeâs name, he felt annoyed and shook his head. âI have nothing to do with her.
You better not mess with me.â
âYou are just a prison guard, how dare you be arrogant in front of us! We are the four greatest fighters of Terror!â The man laughed and walked toward Nathan, then, he suddenly reached out to grab Nathanâs throat.
Nathan shook his head. This man was so weak that any prisoner in his prison would beat him up easily.
Nathan blocked the manâs fist and ignored his shocking expression. He struck them and brought all of them down in a heartbeat.
âI hate troubles!â Nathan shook his head and threw their bodies down the cliff.
***
A moment later, Jade tracked the bloodstain to the bottom of the cliff, where she saw four bodies that she could hardly recognize.
âThey were Terrorâs greatest fighters who troubled us a lot, and we havenât been able to arrest themâ¦â
When Jade saw the four corpses, she was deeply shocked. And she was even more shocked when she saw briefly that these four people were beaten to death and thrown down the cliff.
âWho would be this powerful to kill all of them? Their blood is still warm, which means they died not long ago. But I didnât notice the fighting.â
Jadeâs eyes were full of solemnity, because the man who killed them was stronger than her!
She looked at the top of Mountain Almonube thoughtfully and made a call. âFind the person who lives in Almonube Palace, and then send someone here to clean up the sceneâ¦â
***
Early the following day, Nathan received a call from Hector.
âNathan, you and Natalie married too fast, and this relationship needs to be consolidated. She invited a few friends to a sports club today and will introduce them to you. Tell me your address, and Iâll ask her to pick you up!â Hector laughed.
âOkay,â Nathan smiled helplessly.
He couldnât refuse Hectorâs kindness, so he had to agree.
Soon, Hannah and Natalie came to pick up Nathan.
Hannah saw Nathan and looked at him from head to toe. She felt disdained.
Heâs just a prison guard with a good figure. Heâs not good-looking or influential, how can he be Natalieâs husband?
âMy best friend, Hannah,â Natalie sat in the passenger seat and said coldly.
With a smile, Nathan stretched out his hand and said, âHello!â
However, Hannah ignored him. âHurry up and get in the car! Mr. Luke and the others are waiting for us!â
Hannah drove very fast, and it didnât take long for them to arrive at a club called Runmile.
âNatalie, Hanna, you are finally here!â Several young men greeted them.
The man at the front was tall and handsome, he was Natalieâs admirer. His name was Luke Roberts.
Lukeâs eyes turned cold when Nathan came out of the car.
âWho is this?â he asked.
âA nobody,â Hannah nodded to Luke.
Luke looked at Nathan and found nothing special about this man.
How could he dare to chase Natalie?
Natalie said, âHanna always talks like this, donât take it too seriously.â
Nathan glanced at her but was too lazy to speak.
âSince youâre here, no matter who you are, weâll treat you as a friend,â Luke said indifferently.
He didnât care about Nathan and thought he was just an ordinary, useless man who could do nothing without his wifeâs wealthy family.
Luke smiled at Natalie. âNatalie, havenât you always wanted to learn to fence? I won the third runner-up at the National Fencing Fans Conference, and I can teach you today.â
âBy the way, I promised to help you take back the 20 million owed by Negino Commerce. Iâm working on it, and I assume theyâll respond in the next two days.â
âDonât worry. Although the Negino Commerce is rich and influential, I can still ask them to do me a favor.â
Natalie nodded with a hint of joy in her eyes. âThank you, Mr. Luke!â
After entering the club and finding the venue, Luke asked another man who liked fencing to practice against him.
âD*mn it, who is that⦠Is that General Perkins?!â
âItâs really her! I didnât expect to meet her hereâ¦â
âWho is she practicing archery with? Is that Negino Mendez, the president of the Negino Commerce?â
âWow, Jade is a great idol who is good at everything! Look, she scored ten everytime!â
Jade was dressed in sportswear, and she seemed valiant and heroic. She aimed the target and fired four arrows in a row, each of which was stuck into the center of the target.
Nathan suddenly had the urge to curse someone.
Why would I encounter Jade wherever she went? What is going on?
He looked over again and smiled.
Wasnât that Negino âLoachâ Mendez?
Back then, Negino was very arrogant when he was imprisoned. He disliked the food and smashed the canteen, and then Nathan hung him up on a telephone pole for three days. After that, he turned from the mighty Negino to the little Loach.
âI didnât expect that I would have the opportunity to meet Jade. She is the latest top fighter in our country. If I can marry such a womanâ¦â
âStop dreaming, the Perkins family is big in Emperia City, and General Perkins is a heroine. Who can be worthy of her?â
However, everyoneâs attention returned to Luke and the other man when they picked up their swords and started practicing.
Luke was indeed quite skillful. Otherwise, he would not have won the third runner-up. The man on the opposite side was not his match at all. After a few rounds, Luke knocked down his opponentâs sword and pointed at his throat.
âMr. Luke is amazing! He knocked off Mr. Mandyâs sword in five moves!â Natalieâs eyes lit up.
Lukeâs movements were flexible and elegant, which made many young girls flutter.
Nathan frowned and decided to leave. He didnât want to have anything to do with Jade. He hated trouble, even though the four men last night were nothing to him.
