Red Storm - Chapter 145

In a world where might was magic, it was a crime to be a noble and magicless. And for this crime, the punishment was death.I grew up frail, bullied by my older siblings, but I thought I could finally turn things around on my sixteenth birthday, when as a noble I was supposed to awaken my magical abilities. The awakening orb, however, turned grey—and condemned me a dud.My father, a duke, could not believe he had fathered such a pathetic specimen. Calling me cursed, he ordered my death and had me thrown into a raging river.I hit the water hard. For a moment I lost consciousness, certain I would never wake again.But some time later, I opened my eyes to the agony of drowning, my body battered by the current. In front of me floated a curious blue sheet of light.[Base Trait: Deathless Acquired][Condition met: You have experienced death.][You can sustain injury, drowning, burning, poisoning, and all forms of bodily destruction—but you will not die.

Didn't we agree on a hidden marriage? How could it be exposed!”Ava Sterling barged into the person's conference room, shouting angrily.Facing the stunned gazes in the conference room, the noble and indifferent man lightly said, “Meeting adjourned.”In an instant, all the senior executives scattered like birds and beasts. Ava Sterling, no longer able to suppress her emotions, rushed to the man's side, slamming her hands on the conference table, bending forward with clenched teeth, “Poe Vaughn, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation!”The man looked into her beautiful eyes burning with anger, his gaze deep as an abyss, “Mrs. Vaughn, shouldn't you give your husband a reasonable explanation for having a sweet date with Young Master Kingsley?”
