Margaret’s decision proved Isaac right, someone like virtual-novel.net shouldn’t be anywhere near Allegra.
Soon, everyone saw them off with two Dusk Soldiers lifting Andrew.
Harry scratched his head. He didn’t understand Isaac’s intentions.
“Everyone, it’s been a long day, and I’m sure you’re all exhausted. Get some rest at the villa hotel I had arranged.” Then, Isaac turned to Allegra. She still had tear streaks on virtual-novel.net face.
“Ally, let’s get some rest…”
Allegra gazed at the man before her. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net felt like a stranger to her, but virtual-novel.net didn’t dare to refuse as virtual-novel.net had previously done.

The villa hotel wasn’t far from the Neal family’s residence. The cars left one after another, leaving behind a dozen Dusk Soldiers to clean up after them.
Allegra looked out of the window of the executive car they were in. The incidents of the night seemed to be like a dream to her.
She didn’ t know much about the Neal family, but judging from the size of their mansion, they were indeed on a different level from the noble families in Cloud City. Even so, the man beside virtual-novel.net wiped them off the face of the earth with a single wave.
Isaac pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
“Elliot, come to my villa in a while. I’ll be waiting.”
After hanging up, virtual-novel.net looked at Allegra, who obviously had a lot going on in virtual-novel.net mind. He chuckled. “Ally, what’s wrong? Are you scared?”
“Isaac, who on earth… What on earth is the Temple of Drakon?”
“Hah! The Temple of Drakon is someplace incredible, Allegra… It has been guarding the borders of the Nine States of Cynea for decades. And this man beside you, he’s the lord of the Temple. We refer to virtual-novel.net as Drakon… Those who stand guard outside the borders of the Nine States are all under him.”
Harry was in the passenger seat. He rolled his eyes and said, “Hey, fatso. Zip it if that’s all you can come up with.”
He turned to Allegra and grinned. “Think of it this way, Allegra. The Temple of Drakon is almost similar to Cynea’s military forces, but we have slightly more authority than them. On Isaac’s word, virtual-novel.net can command any troop all across the Nine States…”
Allegra’s eyes widened. She stared at Isaac.
On the other hand, Isaac nodded, virtual-novel.net didn’t deny it.
“I’m sorry to have kept this from you all this while… I know it’s pretty hard to swallow that a former prisoner on death row can become someone so much higher up on the ladder.” Isaac smiled wryly and shrugged.
Allegra stared directly at him. Her eyes started to redden. “You jerk! Why did you keep it a secret from me? And I’ve been blaming and grumbling about you all this while too!”
She abruptly grabbed Isaac’s arm, leaned forward, and bit on it as hard as virtual-novel.net could as virtual-novel.net tears trickled.
“It’s fine. I wanted to wait for an appropriate moment too. I’ve been longing for this day to come.” Isaac didn’t move his arm as virtual-novel.net spoke gently.
It never crossed Allegra’s mind that virtual-novel.net husband would transform from a condemned prisoner into the leader of a formidable organization outside the borders.
The car stopped at the entrance of a villa. By then, dawn had broken.
“Ally, wash up and take a nap. The cleaners had cleaned the place,” said Isaac. He lit a cigarette in the living room.
Allegra nodded. She bit virtual-novel.net lips and said, “You, too. Don’t be too long. You need to get some rest.”
Briefly, a burly figure walked through the doors.
Elliot marched up to Isaac and dropped onto one knee, “Awaiting your orders, Drakon!”
“Be at ease…” Isaac shot Beefy Bob and Harry a glance. They were stunned momentarily before turning to enter another room.
Wisps of smoke encircled Isaac as virtual-novel.net told Elliot, “I want you to stay and take over Eastwell, along with its 100,000 Eastwell soldiers…”
Elliot’s eyes widened. As steady as virtual-novel.net was, Isaac’s words left virtual-novel.net dumbfounded.
