I Am the Ruler of All

Chapter 10 Serena’s One Hundred Assassination Attempts

Kingsley gave Serena a cheeky pinch while grinning. “You haven’t really forgotten about me, have you, Serena?”

Serena slowly turned around like a lifeless doll and pressed herself against Kingsley’s broad chest, asking, “A-Are you really Kingsley?”

In an instant, her eyes were red-rimmed with oncoming tears.

Meanwhile, Kingsley brought her slipping strap back up to her shoulders to fix her nightgown. “It’s me. It has been a while, Serena.”

“Kingsley…” Serena’s eyes lit up and she wrapped her arms around the young man while burying her head in his chest, whispering in a muffled voice, “Have you come back… to die?”

Though he didn’t hear what exactly she said, he could feel the cold malice she emitted, and without a second of hesitation, he escaped Serena’s embrace with a spin, jumping to the couch aside. “You’re not really thinking of killing me, are you, Serena?” he asked speechlessly.

While cracking her knuckles, Serena spitted a needle out of her mouth and spoke with a deadpan face. “You saw practically every part of my body! That’s the ultimate indignity for an assassin!”

“A-Assassin?”

Kingsley was once again at a loss for words. At this moment, Reene’s words popped into his head. She provides service for special clients. Let me guess? Her service basically includes eliminating unwanted personnel for her clients?

“Serena, let’s calm down for a second.” Kingsley put his hand out and jested, “Do you really have the heart to kill me, your beloved brother?”

“I don’t.”
