Female Novel
Chapter 313 Limelight
Crash!
Fabian's body crashed into the wall outside of the room, the momentum of the collision creating
spiderweb-like cracks in the wall.
After that, he slid onto the floor slowly, his skin making horrendous screeching noises along the walls.
There was a giant crater in his chest and blood frothing from his mouth. When his backside touched thenovelbin
ground, his head fell to the side limply.
He's dead!
Nathan had gotten rid of a man who gravely injured the all-rounded fighter Yancy!
Everyone's eyes were trained on Nathan, some in shock, some in awe, and some in fear.
However, Nathan himself seemed to brush aside the matter as though nothing had happened.
He raised his glass and emptied it into his throat, before turning to the suited men standing and
trembling by the door. "Get out. Take that dead dog along with you."
The men in suits obeyed his orders immediately.
Everyone watched as the men in suits scampered off with Fabian's corpse in tow, before heaving a
huge sigh of relief.
They continued to stare at Nathan, though there was an array of emotions coursing through their veins:
bewilderment, jealousy, worry, pride, reverence...
Penny was the worried one. She feared retribution.
The proud one was Kylie.Nathan's amazing! He got rid of someone that even Yancy couldn't deal with!
The shocked and jealous one was none other than Yancy.
He glared at Nathan in disbelief.He's so scrawny! How did he even kick that guy to death?
No... Something is wrong! This isn't real!
He recalled how he had punched Fabian in the chest before.
Was Nathan Cross just finishing the job for me?
The more he thought about it, the more he believed it. After all, he was the top fighter in the Channing
military, favored by Major General Wilson.
He could kill anyone weaker than him with one punch.
So, he figured that Fabian was just barely hanging on to life after taking a punch from him.
Nathan must have taken advantage of that!
His face slowly contorted into an ugly scowl the more he thought about it.
The limelight belongs to me!
The Smiths were gathered around Nathan, checking his body for injuries.
Nathan simply shook his head and smiled. "I was a soldier. That thug didn't stand a chance against
me."
He had said those words without much thought, but it sounded like a jarring screech to the Tonkins.
They had been making fun of Nathan just moments ago, even speculating that he was nothing
compared to Yancy.
However, the tables were turned in just seconds. Captain Yancy was knocked out within minutes, while
Nathan had emerged victorious.
"Oh my! Yancy's hurt. We should call an ambulance,” Leah exclaimed.
Soon, Yancy was sent to the hospital for treatment.
The Tonkins had aimed to tear Nathan and Penny apart so that their nephew could take Nathan's
place.
They had gone all out to denounce Nathan and make him look bad.
However, Fabian's sudden appearance made their plan backfire on them.
Not only did Penny refuse to leave Nathan, but she also did not seem even slightly interested in Yancy.
The Tonkins felt absolutely humiliated.
Afterwards, they checked in to a five-star hotel near the hospital, saying that they would never step foot
in the Smiths' family home ever again.
Leah had tried to persuade them to stay to no avail, so the Smiths had no choice but to return to their
house without the Tonkins.
