Hidden Marriage: Spoiled by the Imperial Commander - Chapter 343: His Suspicion and Guard

This marks my debut novel, delving into the intertwining love story between an elite family scion and a commoner's daughter. It portrays the journey from acquaintance to affection, culminating in marriage, only to be tested by the intrusion of a third party, leading to an inevitable separation and the arduous pursuit of reconciliation by the scion.The male lead is a strikingly handsome man, born into wealth with a lineage of affluent forebears. Conversely, his mother toils in a lowly job, viewed unfavorably by society. His wife hails from a humble background, subjected to relentless schemes by her mother-in-law, nearly driven from her home. Despite facing countless obstacles, the love between the male and female leads endures. Their romance unfolds amidst trials and tribulations, ultimately transcending hardship and enduring across lifetimes.

A young Brave walked out of his village, gathered companions to his side, defeated the Great Demon King, became famous, then came back with beauties in hand! This was a legend that appears in the world of Seyrol every 200 years!

Our protagonist, however, isn’t a Brave. Even so, for over a thousand years his figure has loomed throughout its history.

Unwittingly, the name of the Red-robed Priest began to resound throughout the world. Red-robed Priest’s legend included extraordinary sword techniques and magic, erudite knowledge, and an almost prophetic ability to lead young Braves toward the proper path. People of the world think of him as a descendent of the ancient Yellow Race which led to his omnipotence. In essence, however, this was just the characteristics of the profession known as ‘Noble’.

Jade Nova Frost, heiress to the Frost Empire, a Mafia gang. During a family celebration, she had her full family and its supporters, murdered by a rival Mafia family.

Escaping with her life, Jade moved to Star Cross City to lay low, changing her identity and plotting her revenge against her sworn enemy, Zale Anders.

Jade meets Xander Warner, the all-time wealthy, handsome, intelligent CEO of the Warner Corporations, blessed with a mysterious power, in an unfortunate incident, where the latter tries to protect her, both unaware of each other’s true identity.

Through revenge and chaos, both fell in love with each other, only to be faced with a shocking truth.

Would she let her revenge take over and end all those who took her family from her or would she let her love for him rule out everything?

What secrets lay in dark and what cruel destiny awaited her?

“Is that any way to treat the person who saved you thrice in one night, tigress?”

“I didn’t ask for your help. I could handle it myself,” Jade protested.

“Really? I wonder what you had done to them, for so many men to be chasing after you right now.” His calm cool voice breezed into her ears, sending chills down her spine at how lovely his voice could be.

“Not your business. Why do you keep coming after me? Who are you? I do not know you.”

She raised her head, so she could look at his eyes to be sure he wasn’t going to lie. A terrible mistake she made as her eyes came in contact with those sexy lips that would capture a girl’s heart at once.

His eyes melted a little at the sight that captivated him. Taking his gaze back up, he took in what he could of her beauty and felt he was been drowned in.

“So pretty.”

“Huh?”

The next thing he did, left her wide-eyed and blinking uncontrollably, trying to process what was happening. Xander had leaned in and captured her lips in a sensual, breathtaking kiss, closing his eyes and enjoying the feel of her lips on his.
