Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 484



Chapter 484

The Destiny Stage was where the life-and-death duels were decided. Generally, martial arts families and guilds would set up such stages.

Phoenix Island was no exception. Their Destiny Stage was located at the square in the heart of the three major families. The stage was enormous. It was a big circular arena measuring over 60 feet in diameter.

Amos responded with a grin, "Clara is smart and beautiful. Even if she remarries, many men would still be vying for her. How could I possibly refuse?"

Clara stood nearby and was feeling quite pleased at the compliment. But Amos' next remark infuriated her.

"Of course, she'd only be Hugo's second wife. You know how it goes-second-hand items generally lose value. It's like buying a mobile phone. Even if you sell it the next day, it's worth at least 20% less."

Clara was so enraged upon hearing that she nearly cursed out loud.

However, Cleef remained calm and said, "I still hope you'll persuade Hugo. It's not that I'm worried about my daughter becoming a widow. What really worries me is whether anyone
