Became A Queen After divorce

The surroundings were silent and still.

Sam’s laughter contrasted with his blood-soaked body and the charred land behind him, making him look like a grim reaper crawling out of hell, sending chills down one’s spine.

The young man in black hesitated for the first time in his life.

“What are you laughing at?”

Sam’s laughter abruptly stopped. His cold, deep-set eyes stared at his parents, and he said with a slight smile, “I’m laughing at you and myself. I’ve always been the one threatening others, but today, someone dares to threaten me!”

“But you’re courting death!” Sam said with murderous intent.

Hearing this, the man in black was momentarily speechless.

This man was too arrogant. Even though he once wielded immense power in Chulae, now he was just a defeated dog. Where did he get the confidence to say such things?

The man in black sneered disdainfully.

“Really? Let’s see if you have the ability. Since we’re both from Chulae, I’ll agree to a fair fight. No guns, just bare fists. If I win, you give me the letter and I’ll let you go. If you win, I won’t kill you, and you can keep the letter.”

With that, he threw his gun to the ground.

Though he was a man accustomed to life and death in the underworld, he wanted to show respect to a hero like Sam.

Sam, having just recovered from a serious illness and suffering the loss of his parents, was physically and mentally exhausted.

He was barely holding on with sheer willpower.

Defeating such a weakened Sam would be too easy for the man and would lose its competitive thrill.

Only evenly matched opponents could be considered true rivals!

Sam stood still for three seconds. From the man’s words, he could sense that this was not an utterly evil person.

The man didn’t want to kill him; he only wanted the letter.

But the letter was his father’s relic. As his father’s son, Sam would never give it to the man in black.

“In that case, let’s fight!”

With that, they began to fight.

Sam’s strength was less than a tenth of what it used to be. His punches felt as light as cotton even to himself.

In contrast, the man fought with precise and powerful Muay Thai moves.

“Is this Muay Thai?”

The man in black nodded. “Yes, I was a boxing champion. Now I just want to lead an ordinary life.”

“If you hand over the letter, my dream can come true.”

What a grand yet unattainable dream. Sam also longed for leading an ordinary life.

Not just him, but his deceased parents Gracie too had yearned for a simple life.

As emotions surged within him, Sam’s hidden anger resurfaced.

He was never a good person and had no interest in fulfilling others’ dreams!

“Too bad. If I can’t achieve my wish, why should I let you succeed?”

“Remember my name with hatred; I don’t mind.”

Fueled by anger, Sam’s potential was unleashed at a critical moment. He launched a series of attacks aimed at the man’s head.

Knowing that Sam was his strongest enemy ever, the man in black didn’t dare underestimate him and quickly protected his head.

With every punch landing solidly, the man spat out blood. He didn’t expect Sam to still have so much strength left.

“Your family is dead, but my wife and children are still alive.”

“So what?” Sam retorted.

Taking a deep breath, the man replied resolutely, “So, I won’t give up!”

Though injured, he still had the upper hand overall;

But how long could Sam last in his current state?

As long as he didn’t give up, he could drag this out until Sam was exhausted and died.

Sam read his thoughts.

Spotting a sharp stone on the ground, Sam maneuvered the man into a dangerous area. He locked his legs around the man’s neck and brought him down.

In desperation, the man grabbed Sam’s neck. With enough force, he could kill Sam quickly.

But fate had other plans. Before he could exert force, pain shot through his head.

Something seemed to be draining from his body rapidly, and soon his consciousness began to fade.

He looked at the equally bloodied Sam and reached out weakly to grab his pant leg.

“Please… deliver a message.”

Technically speaking, he had broken their agreement. Sam’s heart softened unexpectedly.

Despite all his wrongdoings, he agreed to a stranger’s request for once.

Maybe it was the dream of returning to normalcy that moved him;

Or perhaps it was seeing the man’s determination to hold on despite bleeding that reminded him of himself.

“Speak. I’ll do my best.”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Tell my wife and children… I’m sorry.”

With those final words, the man died.

Feeling conflicted, Sam knelt down. His usually indifferent face showed a rare crack of emotion.

He slowly reached out and closed the man’s eyes.

“I’ll remember you. Though I don’t know your name, I’ll try to deliver your last words.”

After this battle, Sam had no strength left. He collapsed near the man’s body.

Letting the rain wash over him, he fell into a deep sleep.

He thought: How wonderful it would be to stay in this dream forever.

“Maybe heaven saw that my revenge was incomplete and decided to give me another chance. The next day I found myself still alive!”

“At that moment I truly felt it would have been better to die.”

Since he survived, he had to live for a new goal.

Reborn, Sam had only one goal-revenge!

He had gone against Gracie’s last wish.

She wanted him to live well, but every night when he closed his eyes, he saw her suicide replaying before him.

Sam dared not forget and didn’t want to forget!

After hearing about his feud with Esteban’s father, Pearl was shocked and speechless.

“So that’s what happened… Then Esteban’s father…”

“He’s dead. I killed him.”

“When I woke up, his body was gone.”

They had agreed on a fair fight without guns. Though Sam used the terrain cleverly, technically he hadn’t broken their agreement.

“You shouldn’t blame yourself too much. At that time, you probably didn’t intend for things to go that far.”

“By the way, what was in that letter? Why did Esteban’s father risk his life for it?” Pearl comforted him while feeling curious about the letter that caused such bloodshed.

The man gave her a deep look and coldly said, “You wouldn’t want to know!”

With that, he turned and left, leaving Pearl standing there in sorrow.
