Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 1957

Right after Wilbur had ended the call, his phone rang with another call from Layla.

"Yo, sir."

"Is anything the matter, Layla?"

"Sir, we've just received news that the assassin group called the Black Panthers reappeared after disappearing from the cultivator's circle for a good while. They killed Jiro last night, and if I'm not wrong, they're now on their way to Migorn."

"I think they're out to get you, sir."

"I know. It's alright, I'll handle it."

The Black Panthers were making a move?

Wilbur found the whole thing rather peculiar upon hanging up. The Black Panthers had always been under a powerful secret elite, working for him and carrying out his demands. That elite had not given out any orders for a long time, and eventually, the Black Panthers were barely talked about at all.

No one could believe that they had made a reappearance, ten years later— and this time, they were after him.

Wilbur gave it some thought and realized that neither he nor Jiro had any reason to have offended the Black Panthers or their elite leader. Now that the Black Panthers had killed Billy and had set eyes on him, that meant that it might not be because of Wilbur or Jiro.

The Black Panthers' goal might be related to the Nine Dragons Cauldrons. It was definitely not a coincidence that they had appeared right after Wilbur had taken action. Maybe someone knew about the secret of the Nine Dragons Cauldrons. There were many cultivators around the world cultivating dragon aura, or at least that was what Wilbur was sure of.

Her father smiled at her widely. "Your mother spent all her effort and money on this family in the past, and now it's your turn to do the same for us."

Ellen broke into sobs. Her father was a good-for-nothing bastard. Ever since marrying him, Ellen's mother had worked many difficult jobs to sustain the family and even had to come home to a beating from him. One day, on the way home from work, Ellen's mother was so tired that she could not see the car zooming across the road and became a cripple from the accident.

Ellen's mother now had to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair. Yet despite something like this happening and the family nearly running out of money completely, Ellen's father refused to go looking for a job, forcing Ellen to be the breadwinner of the family.

Now Ellen had become just like her mother, slaving away at work every day only to have most of her hard-earned money taken away by her father to spend on drinks at the bar.

Ellen's mother had also become mentally paralyzed since the accident, and her condition varied from day to day. Ellen would have given up had it not been for her mother, but she did not know how long more she could keep going.
