Chapter 1037: Stubborn Woman

Archer glanced at Ellie as she explained, "This troll is Sasha's and Cece's grandmother."
The brunette looked at the older woman rushing out of the garden and shouted, "Troll! There's no need to be rude to your family; he is also with the twins!"
When Karen heard this, she stumbled before falling over, causing Archer and Ellie to burst into laughter at her expense. Suddenly, she began screaming, prompting a man to rush over with a panicked expression on his face.
Archer raised an eyebrow, captivated by the unfolding drama. He glanced at his sister, who looked on with disdain. "That's Reggie, the husband," she said, her voice dripping with contempt. "He's a total jerk and treated Aunty Bel horribly."
"Will he start?" he replied while staring at the man.
Ellie nodded, preparing to speak, but Reggie rushed over just as Karen regained her footing. Archer noted the tall and fat man; he appeared imposing to most, but Archer felt unfazed by his presence.
When the man got closer, he pointed at him and spoke with venom, "Who are you to claim my granddaughters? They would never go with a playboy like you."
Archer started laughing alongside Ellie as she replied, "Reg. You don't know anything; those two are hooked on him. Ask them, they won't hide it."
Raggie's face went bright red, but he pulled out his phone and smashed it away on the screen before putting it to his ear. Seconds passed, and Archer heard Cece's voice echo through the phone, "Hello, Gramps! How are you and Grandma?"
''We're fine darling," the older man replied. "Sweetpea, do you and Sash have a boyfriend?"
Silence hung in the air before Cece's cheerful voice sounded from the phone, "Yes! You have to meet him! He's so handsome and dreamy. And he has helped us out more than he knows!"
When Reggie heard this, his face fell further, but he asked another question, "What do you mean him? Isn't it them?"
"No, Grampa. We are dating the same man; I know it's weird, but all the rich people do it, and if I get to stay with Sash and our children grow up together, it all works out."
Archer and Ellie started laughing when they saw Reggie's face go several shades of red before he exclaimed, "I will not allow it! You two will find your own boyfriends to get married to and have your own families."
'No, they won't,' he thought before stepping forward, but the brunette stopped him. "They are feisty and have the old man wrapped around their little finger. Just watch what Cece says."
The blue-eyed twin's voice erupted through the phone, "Don't you dare dictate who we can be with! Dad tried that, and look how it turned out. You and Grandma can't control our choices; we love him, and that's final. If you can't accept it, I'm sorry, but that's your issue, not ours, Grampa."'
Archer chuckled at Cece's response, watching as the older man lost his composure and charged at him in a rage. Archer sidestepped and seized the man by the throat, effortlessly lifting him off the ground despite his towering size.
"Now Reggie, you have no right telling me who I can be with," he said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "The twins are mine, and there's nothing you can do apart from trying to get along with me."
After speaking, he threw the man out of the garden, causing him to land with a thud as Karen ran to his side. The older man wouldn't look at them while returning to their car; he waved at them before his phone started ringing from the house.
One of the men spun around in panic as soon as he heard Archer approaching, his voice
trembling as he shouted, "Get down on the floor, or we'll shoot!"
The rest of the group quickly turned, weapons trained on him. His smile widened as he raised his hands in mock surrender, feigning obedience. The terrorists cautiously moved toward him, but as soon as the first one got close, Archer's smile turned into a smirk.
In a motion blur, Archer lunged forward, seizing the man by the throat. With a swift twist of his wrist, the sickening crack of bone echoed as he snapped the man's neck, then hurled the lifeless body at another terrorist, knocking him to the ground.
Chaos erupted as the rest of the group opened fire. Bullets tore through the air, only to ricochet harmlessly off him. His clothes shredded and burned away, but he laughed,
reverberating through the hallway.
"My turn," he said, eyes gleaming with dangerous excitement.
Without hesitation, Archer used Blink, vanishing from sight in an instant. The terrorists barely had time to react before he reappeared among them, tearing through their ranks like a savage
animal.
"This will scare anyone who finds it,' he mused with a smile.
Screams filled the air as bodies fell, leaving the survivors scrambling in terror. Panic-stricken,
they tried to flee, but there was no escape. Archer pursued them quickly, closing the distance like a predator was hunting his prey.
It took him ten minutes to finish all but one off; the hallways and rooms were covered in blood with chunks of meat all over the place. Archer was standing over the last man with a smile while drenched in blood.
"You seem like the leader of this lot," Archer said with an eerie smile. "I will eat your soul
before feeding your corpse to my Monster Army."
Following that, he cast Soul Render and ate the terrorist's soul only to find out several locations for the group, causing him to think, 'Now to deal with the rest.'
Archer dashed through the corridors of the building, recognizing it as a Canadian Government
facility from the sight of the red and white flag. He fought with a smile, enjoying every second
of taking down every terrorist in his way.
