Chapter 619: [Bonus - ] Hera Cruel is alive
"I lost contact with them a long time ago, but I know Felice. The foolish woman who fell in love with her target and brought a monster into this world."
Grandma Zhu took a deliberate pause as she pressed her lips into a tight line once more. It had been a while since she thought of her old friend.
"I used to be her client when she was still working all alone. She’s the best assassin in her generation — one of a kind. She was a dangerous woman. Although she’s younger than me, she scares me," she continued under her breath, feeling this weight in her heart at the thought of that friend. "I know even if we’re in the same age, I will never beat her. Be it wits or strength — she’s that amazing."
"It does sound like she is." Primo nodded in agreement. "If I meet her, I might want to marry her."
Grandma Zhu ignored his nonsense as she huffed quietly. "She’s not someone you would want to touch. If you think you’re dangerous, then you’re wrong. Marrying her will be the biggest mistake you’d ever make."
"Oh?" his lips formed into an o-shape, rocking his head in understanding. "Well, if you keep saying that, then I believe you. But then again, who is this?"
"Hah!" She looked back at him in dismay. "Felice is the woman who killed my husband and made it look like a natural death. The woman who eventually became the matriarch of the Cruel Familia."
"Well, that’s a plot twist. So you killed your husband, huh?"
"That bastard is a good-for-nothing!" Grandma Zhu hissed, clicking her tongue as she still hadn’t found any remorse for her husband’s death. Well, no one could blame her. Her husband was a wicked man. He was just like Leon — probably worse.
