Chapter 162 162: Fear Without A Presidency
Bianca was in front of a gigantic mirror in her closet. She had already tried on more than 5 different dresses. Now, she was wearing a golden dress as she made some faces and smiled a few times with her red lips, but she ended up making a strange expression, not knowing if this was or was not the dress that she liked the most so far. After thinking a little and checking the time, she settled for the dress she was wearing. Knowing she didn’t have much time left, Bianca put on a pair of earrings and highlighted the red lipstick on her lips, looking into the mirror.
‘Mm, something’s still missing…’ With the jewelry box open, she saw a small gold chain with a pendant of a dark blue wolf that appeared to be alive. Wearing the necklace, she looked at herself in the mirror with a confident smile. ‘Yes, that’s it!’

Amon and Barbara had just arrived at the restaurant. It was busy as usual, but they didn’t have to wait as they were recognized.
“Mr. Amon and Miss Barbara, you may come in.”
“Mm.” Barbara made a happy nasally sound in confirmation as she tugged on Amon’s arm.
Now that the other girls were gone, she was happy to have more alone time with Amon, although… Well, she wanted to see her mother too, but she still pouted at the thought of having to share Amon’s attention with her mother.
The restaurant was as busy as ever, and the people inside stole a few glances their way. Amon and Barbara were well above average in appearance, and now that they’d reached Innate Rank, their appearance has undergone a slightly recognizable change. No wonder the people in the restaurant looked at them at least once.
But while this was true, that was just it; no one paid much attention after a few glances. Had they known that they were champions of the most recent tournament between the 4 big universities, perhaps things would have been different, however, although it was not purposefully hidden, it was also not announced so everyone could notice.
Although it was like that for most present, someone among the people who were eating at the restaurant had also participated in the tournament and recognized Amon and Barbara.
“A-N-A?”
There was a guy who was with the girl who recognized Amon and Barbara. He narrowed his eyes as he saw the two of them approach.
Ana smiled and spoke, looking at the man, “Young Master Marcelo, remember the winners of the tournament I mentioned earlier? See, those two over here were in the winning group.”
“Oh…” The man showed interest now while looking at Amon and Barbara. He anticipated that something interesting was about to happen, and he said with more of an order than a suggestion, “Let’s shake hands with them, then.”
Ana didn’t seem to mind. She was even happy to see that Young Master Marcelo was going with her. It gave her even more confidence, making her chest stick out proudly as she walked towards Amon and Barbara.
Looking at her so confidently, Marcelo felt that Ana looked sexier than ever, walking while smiling confidently. In the dim light of the restaurant, he felt it glow around her, emphasizing her youthful, curvy body. Her tight t-shirt accentuated the fullness of her breasts, and he could clearly see her big ass that swayed non stop as he walked behind her. Her short skirt swayed gently against her thick, smooth thighs, leading him to wonder what was underneath her skirt. But most impressive of all, was the way she was acting, as it was no secret to anyone close to him that she knew he desired her, and seeing her like this, he got some ideas from looking at the couple right in front of him.
Although most people called him Young Master, it was because he was the son of a Duke. In reality, he was already 39 years old and about to turn 40 and already married. At the moment, he wanted Ana to become his new concubine. He currently had 9 concubines, but he already felt sick of all of them, and Ana had been attracting his attention…
“Amon, Barbara. I didn’t expect to find you two here.” With a smile, Ana closed her eyes that curved into a half moon.
Opening her eyes again, Ana looked at the two of them. In particular, she looked at Amon. There was a hint of jealousy and envy when she looked back at Barbara, but she quickly covered it with a simple smile. Barbara knew that look. If it had been a few months ago, she wouldn’t have noticed, but it was different now.
“Ohh,” Barbara’s eyes narrowed like a cat’s as she nonchalantly said, “Do I know you?”
“Hehe…” A giggle came out of Ana’s mouth. She then said with a smile, “No wonder you don’t remember me. My team was only ranked 10th in the tournament among the 4 universities after all.”
“Aren’t you going to introduce us?” There was a burning desire in the Duke’s son’s eyes when he saw Barbara up close. He totally ignored Amon’s existence.
Ana tapped her forehead and said with an apologetic smile, “Ah, where are my manners? My name is Ana Lúcia Sicupira, and the one next to me is Young Master Marcelo.”
“Tsk, being called a Young Master, when in reality he’s over 30. Jeez, I’d hide under a table in embarrassment if it were me,” Barbara said while clicking her tongue. She didn’t like the look she was getting from this annoying man one bit, and when she heard the introduction from the girl Ana, she ended up speaking her frustration out loud.
A blue vein was visible on Marcelo’s forehead. He was sensitive to anyone trying to make fun of him, especially when they were looking down on him because of his age.
“A-are you crazy?” Ana was in disbelief. Even though she had no desire to marry Young Master Marcelo, she knew that his status was not simple and did not dare tease him. “He is the son of Duke Nicolau, from the planet Saturn of the New Age Country!”
The fact that she could decide whether to stay with him or not was because she was from Golden Phoenix University. However, the instant she left and had nothing to support her, her fate would be sealed.
The people around to hear that he was the son of Duke Nicolau were mostly fearful, although there were some flatterers.
“That’s right, apologize to Young Master Marcelo,” some began to say, wanting to garner his favor.
“Tsk.” Barbara clicked her tongue in displeasure.
“Blondie, you’re not bad at all. However, what you said offended me. Now, I will give you a chance to apologize by having the privilege of becoming my new concubine.”
Adjusting his tie, Marcelo spoke with a look that said everything was under his control. Now that she knew his status as the son of Duke Nicolas, he knew it was only a matter of time before she threw herself into his arms. Marcelo opened his arms for a hug, feeling generous as he walked towards her.
“Wow! He is so generous!”
“Yes, this girl has offended him, but he is still willing to make her his concubine… How lucky.”
“Yes, she is lucky.”
There were more than 100 people in the restaurant, but only 5 were fawning. Some were saying these things because they really thought so, another two were laughing inside.
*Whoosh!*
Suddenly, a giant hand of lightning surrounded Marcelo, almost squeezing around him.
Marcelo’s eyes widened. He looked towards Amon in shock. Maybe it was the first time he had looked at Amon for more than a second.
“You must be crazy! Do you have a death wish?” Marcelo shouted angrily, but didn’t dare move. He felt great danger from the lightning crackling all around him.
“Heavens!” Ana took a few steps back. Before, she already thought that Barbara was brave, but unexpectedly, the boy Amon was even worse.
Amon’s cold, indifferent eyes remained on Marcelo as he didn’t say a single word.
“Let go! Let him go!” Ana said boldly. She knew whom she should seek favor with.
Amon looked at her with his hazel eyes, cold and emotionless. She did not know why, but Ana felt an overwhelming fear when Amon looked at her. It was worse than the ghastly red eyes she had seen in a horror movie on a dark night. She fell speechless as her thoughts became jumbled.
Feeling the gaze locked on her, Ana shook her head in denial as tears started to come out of her eyes involuntarily. She has never felt so scared in her life! Not taking it anymore, her legs gave out and Ana fell in an ‘M’ shape as a yellow liquid started to form a puddle around her. 𝑏𝑒𝑑𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝘮
Amon’s cold eyes were taken from her and turned to Marcelo, who swallowed hard. Like Ana, he had never felt this scared, even when his father, Duke Nicolas, looked at him angrily.
‘But what the hell is this boy? Why are his eyes so scary?’ Marcelo was shaking with fear and had only managed to endure so long because he feared embarrassing himself further in public.
The audience reaction was shocking. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing. Many of them were Innate, and they even had 2 to 3 Genetic Factors formed, but still, they never thought that a young Innate could cause such a commotion, especially when they felt the danger transmitted by the young man’s lightning.
“Amon is amazing!” Barbara clapped her hands, breaking the silence. Her pretty face was flushed with excitement as she almost threw herself into his arms, but she stopped herself when she saw that it wasn’t the right time for that.
Barbara understood why Amon had done this, even without him saying anything: It was because of her, and only because of her! The others also understood. Amon didn’t need to tell them to know that the young man did this because of what ‘Young Master’ Marcelo had said moments earlier.
