Chapter 1392

Julian was both excited and suspicious. “Sir, are you sure I am comparable to the Great Marshal at his peak?”

“Of course. The power of the Spirit Stones combined with a King’s energy is beyond your imagination,”

Ares revealed.

Julian clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in determination. “The tides have turned; one should never look down on a young man. Zeke Williams, just you wait and see. I’ll return all the humiliation you threw on me. Not only will I cripple you, but I also want to destroy your family!”

Once he regained his power, the first thing he wanted to do was to take revenge on Zeke.

It was obvious he hated Zeke immensely.

Ares patted his shoulder. “I support your decision to take revenge. However, I think destroying his family is too lenient a punishment.”

“I was thinking, maybe you could take over his position as the Great Marshal and destroy his reputation at the same time.”

Julian’s eyes lit up instantly.

“Zeke is suffering a permanent injury now, so he isn’t fit to be a Great Marshal. I should take over his position since I am as strong as him in his peak.”

“It looks like you already have a plan,” Julian said to Ares.

Ares nodded and grinned wickedly. “I heard Zeke’s ex-girlfriend went to him.”

Julian smirked at once.

Ares hadn’t revealed his plan, but from the word ‘ex-girlfriend’, Julian could roughly figure out what it was.

Looks like I have to meet Zeke’s ex-girlfriend personally.

The weather gradually turned cold as autumn arrived.

Emily’s clothes couldn’t meet her needs any longer, so she decided to go shopping after getting off work earlier than usual.

She had been working in Linton Group for only a few days and hadn’t made any new friends yet, so she had no choice but to do shopping alone.

Her lonely figure seemed desolate in the mall.

Unwittingly, she entered a designer store.

Under the salesperson’s suggestion, she put on a red mink coat.

The coat enhanced her elegance greatly, so the salespeople started buttering up on her.

“Miss, you look a few years younger after putting on this coat.”

“Yes, you look much prettier in it.”

“It would be a waste if this coat isn’t worn by you.”

Emily loved this coat too.

With a gentle smile, she inquired, “How much is it?”

The salesperson replied, “It isn’t that expensive. It costs eighteen thousand eight hundred.”

What?

Emily’s heart sank upon hearing the answer.

Her monthly pay was only six thousand, and she hadn’t even received her pay yet.

All the money she could lay her hands on was not even more than five thousand.

To her, eighteen thousand eight hundred was an enormous figure.

With that, she exhaled as she took off the coat. “I’m sorry. I won’t get it.”

What?

The salesperson who had just praised her were immediately displeased.

“Miss, it really suits you a lot!”

“It will be your loss if you don’t buy it.”

“Let me think about it. Give me your number,” Emily said. “I’ll let you know in a couple of days.”

Her rejection was clear, but the salespeople just wouldn’t give up.

“I’m sorry, Miss. You must buy this coat no matter what because you had just tried it on. This is one of the rules in our store.”

“Please don’t make it difficult for us.”

Emily knew they wanted to press her to get the sale, so she had no choice but to tell them the truth.

“I’m sorry. I don’t have enough money.”

What?

The salespeople started throwing threats and vile comments at Emily.
