My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Ellis’s identity was special, and he was willing to spend money; therefore, he kept a close eye on the entire process of the testing.

From sample collection to sending it to the testing room, at every step, he watched carefully.

Even though he didn’t understand what the doctors were doing, he could prevent someone from swapping the samples and ensure that the doctors didn’t tamper with anything.

And so it went, right up to the last step.

The test results were uploaded to the computer, finally providing an answer.

Throughout the entire testing process, the doctor even joked while looking at his sample. “With this thickness, there shouldn’t be any problems!”

These words gave Ellis a lot of confidence.

“So, I really don’t have any problems, do I?”

He sat in the room, waiting for the final results.

As soon as the results from the equipment were transmitted to the computer, he leaned in and asked anxiously, “Doctor, how is it?”

The doctor looked at the results on the computer, and his expression changed instantly.

Seeing his reaction, Ellis couldn’t help but clench his fingers.

The doctor glanced at him, looked back at the results, and after another uncertain look at him, he finally spoke, “It’s… azoospermia.”

Ellis’s eyebrows immediately furrowed.

A deep sense of disappointment suddenly arose from

the bottom of his heart.

If that doctor hadn’t teased him during the testing, if Keira hadn’t repeatedly emphasized that he wasn’t

sick, he might not have held out such high hopes.

Now, seeing this result, although it was expected, he still found it somewhat hard to accept!

He clenched his fists tightly, and his demeanor was so intense that it frightened the doctor.

The doctor’s face turned nale. “Mr. Ellis… vou…”

Ellis stared at him. “Some things can be said, and some things must not be spoken of. Understand?”

The doctor hastily swallowed, nodded, and said, “I

understand, I understand.”

With that, Ellis left the room.

After he was gone, the doctor couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

He was as pale as paper and was exuding an unusual

terror.

The assistant couldn’t help but say, “Why do I feel that this result is incorrect? His semen appeared to be fine!

Plus, generally speaking, men with oligospermia have weak energy, but just now, Mr. Ellis seemed full of masculine vigor…”

“Shut up!”

The doctor immediately scolded, leaving the assistant

confused.

The doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead again, and only then did the assistant realize that there was something seriously wrong with him. “Are you… are you scared of something?”

09.34

381 Chapter 380

Fixated on the computer, the doctor said, “Keep

today’s matter to yourself. No matter who asks, don’t speak a word of it, got it?”

The assistant nodded, “Understood.”

“All right, get out.”

The assistant left the room.

The doctor then took a deep breath and continued to stare at the computer screen, where Ellis’s information was registered long ago.

The assistant, being a recent graduate, didn’t

understand.

But the seasoned doctor knew that there existed a

terrifying medical organization in the world, whose ranking among doctors was only heard of, yet not even the name of the organization was known to them.

That formidable medical organization could monitor the entire world’s medical systems.

Mr. Ellis didn’t know who he had offended, leading to his information being registered, so no matter where he went for testing, the result would always be the

same!

Azoospermia!

Was that sinister medical organization toying with Mr.

Ellis?

Or was there some other reason?

The doctor had just thought of this when he suddenly realized that he was actually second-guessing the intentions of that organization, which scared him. He immediately patted his chest. “I don’t know anything. I’m just an ordinary doctor…

The examination process took several hours, and the time Ellis left, it was already dark.

He sat in the car and suddenly let out a bitter laug

Was he once again seeking humiliation?!

He snorted and looked out the window.

The car quickly returned to the Olsen family.

Ellis entered the study, opened a bottle of liquor, and gulped it down. Soon, the sound of vehicles came from

outside.

He glanced out and saw that Mary had come home.

After Mary got home, she slowly went upstairs, hesitated in front of the bedroom door for a moment,

then opened the door. Not seeing Ellis inside, she let out a sigh of relief.

But before she could fully relax, someone suddenly hugged her tightly from behind, a strong scent of alcohol enveloping her nose, making her stiff.

She wanted to resist, but Ellis had already roughly picked her up, thrown her onto the bed, and began to tear off her clothes without care.

Mary panicked. “Ellis, what are you doing? Let me

Ellis, however, buried his head in her neck, kissing while his rough hands brutally tore her clothes…

“Ellis!”

Mary’s eyes widened in panic. “No, it will affect the

child!”

Child…

Ellis paused for a moment, then the mockery in his eyes intensified. He stared at Mary. “That’s someone

else’s bastard. It’s better gone!”

09:34

381 Chapter 380

Then, regardless of Mary’s struggles and screams, he attempted to continue.

Mary struck him in the face with a frantic slap!

“Slap!”

Ellis’s mind cleared somewhat, but he still glared at her fiercely. “Mary, don’t push me too far!”

Tears rolled from the corners of Mary’s eyes. “I want this child, Ellis, please… don’t hurt it… I can compensate in other ways…”

Ellis clenched his fists tightly and after a long moment, violently punched the air beside her!

Mary turned her head slightly.

Ellis abruptly got up. “Mary, remember, you owe me These ten months of marriage, you owe me!”

…

The lights were on in the master bedroom, and the silhouettes of two entangled figures flitted through th sheer window to the outside.

James knelt in the ancestral hall of the Olsen family and could vaguely see it too. He couldn’t help but curl

09:34

his lip.

His big brother and sister-in-law sure had stamina!

He moved his aching knees and then huffed

indignantly.

Until the next day.

The door of the ancestral hall was slowly opened, and James, who had knelt all night, turned his head to see Uncle Olsen walking in.

James, who practiced martial arts, had a sort of bandit air about him, somewhat similar to Uncle Olsen’s, and thus he admired him the most and had always been closest to him since childhood.

At this moment, upon seeing him, James snorted defiantly from his nose.

Uncle Olsen, seeing his demeanor, asked, “Do you know what you did wrong?”

“I don’t.”

James stiffened his neck. “The Olsen family teachings say, our own people shouldn’t be bullied. Uncle, you’re not fair! It was bad enough that you bullied me for an outsider, but to also drive Christina out of the house, I

can’t accept it! Although Christina is our adopted sister, I’ve always treated her as my own!”

Uncle Olsen, hearing this, glared. “What outsider? Do you even know who Keera is?!”

James dismissively retorted, “Who else could she be?”

Suddenly, he remembered what Ellis had said to him last night. There was no need to apologize to his elder sister-in-law, just apologize to Uncle Olsen…

He had gone to look for Uncle Olsen yesterday, but before even entering the door, he was sent here to

kneel in the ancestral hall…

So… was there actually a connection between Keera

and Uncle Olsen?!

For her sake, Uncle Olsen would even drive Christina

out of the house, and now he was saying she wasn’t an outsider. Could it mean…

James’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he carefully asked Uncle Olsen, “Do you know her well?”

Uncle Olsen nodded.

James immediately understood, “I see! Then,

congratulations, Uncle!”

Finally, he was going to have an aunt!

1/9

Although Keera was a bit young and looked more like Uncle Olsen’s daughter, Uncle Olsen had been single his entire life. As he grew older, he became

increasingly lonely. Every so often, when James saw him, he felt a deep sense of compassion and pity.

Even if Keera was younger, and even though she had been divorced and had a child, as long as she could accompany Uncle Olsen, that would be fine!

Thinking James had understood, Uncle Olsen personally helped him up and then said, “Be nicer to her from now on.”

James immediately nodded. “Don’t worry, Uncle, I’ll definitely be very polite to her in the future!”

Uncle Olsen said, “There’s no need for that, just be a bit more affectionate. When I’m gone, you guys must take good care of her.”

Upon hearing this, James felt extremely sad. “Uncle, don’t say that. You’re going to live a long, long life and keep her company! But rest assured, I will definitely b

very

dutiful to her in the future!”

Uncle Olsen was perplexed.

own cousin, what was that about?

However, he didn’t bother to correct him much, as James was famously academically challenged— simple-minded and physically strong.

He patted James on the shoulder. “Alright, you can go

now.”

James nodded and walked away.

As he walked a distance, he glanced back and saw Uncle Olsen standing alone in the ancestral hall, murmuring, “Six days from now, I’ll organize a banquet to publicly announce her identity. Mom, Dad, I’ll bring her back for you to see…”

James’s eyes teared up slightly.

Although he had never seen his grandmother, he had heard his father ramble on about how she worried only about Uncle Olsen’s marital prospects when she passed away.

The banquet in six days… The event shrouded in

secrecy without a word to outsiders turned out to be Uncle Olsen’s wedding banquet!

But Uncle Olsen was being too low-key.

3/9

James decided he had to prepare a meeting gift for his

new aunt!

But what should he give her?

After much thought, James decided, “I’d better ask my

master!”

He was a martial arts student from the Freeman family, one of the five major families.

Although the Freeman family was among the five major families, their business wasn’t in commerce but in

martial arts.

The Freeman family’s enterprise wasn’t called Freeman Corporation but Freeman Sect.

The Freeman Sect encompassed nearly all the martial arts masters of Crera. The scions of the five major families who wanted to practice martial arts for a strong and healthy body also basically joined the

Freeman Sect.

James was a promising martial arts talent, noticed from a young age by the direct line of the Freeman family, and was among the best of his generation within the sects’ disciples.

4/9

His master was the younger brother of the current Sect Leader of the Freeman family and second Martial

Uncle to everyone.

Thus, James was considered a direct, inner disciple within the Freeman Sect, with a high status.

Freeman Sect.

At that moment, Keira was there as well, quietly staring at the big gate.

It was understood that taking on apprentices at the Freeman Sect began when they were just children, since once a child grew up, their bones set and martial artists must build a strong foundation from a young

age.

Keira, however, had no intention to join the Freem Sect or to pay respects to someone as her master.

She already had her own master in the martial arts

The mysterious South family had requested her cooperation with the five great families of Clance before they would tell her their next plans.

09.23

382 Chapter 381

Now, among the five major families, the Olsen family, the Davis family, and the Allen family had been settled with, leaving only the Freeman family and the Gill family.

She decided to target the Freeman family first.

The Freeman Sect had nurtured so many disciples and, while they never engaged in commercial ventures to the outside world, they certainly had sources of income. Besides, if all else failed, hiring protection from the Freeman Sect could be considered cooperation, right?!

With that thought in mind, Keira stepped forward and knocked on the Freeman family’s large iron gate.

The Freeman family was located in a rather secluded area of Clance, and the large iron gate emanated an ancient charm, clearly with a long history.

The door she knocked on was only a smaller gate.

Soon, a man dressed in a martial arts uniform cam over, opened the door, and upon seeing her, he hesitated slightly. “Miss, who are you looking for?”

Keira pondered for a moment. “I’m looking for the

head of our business affair”

f

382 Chapter 381

The man hesitated, appraising her. “What do you want

with him?”

Keira sincerely replied, “I would like to hire some security personnel…”

The man then asked, “Which family are you from?”

Keira said, “The South family”

“Never heard of this family! How many people are in your family? How big is your residence?”

Keira said, “…Just a three-story villa.”

“Then what are you doing here?”

The man, seeing that Keira looked neatly and pretty, had engaged in more conversation, but on hearing it was just a small villa, he became irritated. “The Freeman Sect isn’t a security company. If you want to hire bodyguards, you should at least be from the royal family of Y country, or on the level of the five great families of Clance. Are you joking with me?”

Keira quickly said, “No, my family might be small, but we can negotiate the price…

“We don’t take on petty tasks!”

09.23

7/9

382 Chapter 381

The man huffed again, beginning to shove her away. “Go on, get lost. Don’t come here to bother us for no reason… We’re very busy, and we have to practice and meditate every day… We don’t have time to dawdle here with you!”

After that, the man was about to close the door.

But just then, a sports car approached from the distance, its engine’s roar preceding its arrival.

Hearing the sound of the car, the man immediately craned his neck to look and caught sight of a blue Maserati speeding toward them.

The man’s eyes lit up, “Second Senior Brother is here! Move aside, move aside!”

He pushed Keira aside, and before the car could even

pull up, the large iron gate was already opened, and he excitedly waved to the car.

The car didn’t even stop and drove straight past hin

However, the man showed no sign of being slighted, smiling and waving, “Second Senior Brother, hello!”

Keira was speechless

Wasn’t this a bit too svconhantic?

8/9

382 Chapter 381

Perceiving the expression on Keira’s face, the man immediately said proudly, “What do you know? He’s our second senior brother, the most formidable among the young generation! A direct disciple of our second Sect Leader! He’s from the Olsen family and is the young master of the Olsen Family!”

No sooner had these words fallen than the sports car that had driven in suddenly reversed out, stopping right at the entrance.

James jumped out of the car then and respectfully

approached Keira, “Auntie?!”

Keira was confused.

She took a step back and asked James, “What did you just call me?”

James hesitated slightly.

Thinking about how his third uncle preferred younger women, and that the banquet in a few days was being held in a secretive manner without much fanfare, he cleared his throat, stepped forward, and said, “I’ve come to understand your relationship with my third uncle. Well, it’s fine if you don’t want me to call you something so intimate in public.”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

Before she could figure out the relationship he mentioned, she saw James turn to the gatekeeper and said, “This is an elder of my family… No, she’s a friend of mine. Be more respectful to her in the future.”

The gatekeeper immediately clasped his fist in salute. “Second Senior Brother, understood!”

Then he turned to Keira with a fist salute. “I apologize,

lady. If you had said you knew Second Senior Brother earlier, I would have let you in. However, the

Freeman Sect really doesn’t take temporary jobs.”

Only then did James look at Keira. “What temporary job?”

Keira coughed lightly, “I want to cooperate with the

Freeman Sect.”

“Cooperate?”

James was completely baffled.

The gatekeeper immediately laughed. “Miss, what you’re proposing is just a one-time deal, not cooperation. Even if we assign a few people to protect you out of respect for Second Senior Brother, at most it’s an employment relationship, right?”

Keira stopped short on hearing this. “So what would qualify as cooperation?”

James explained, “Actually, the Freeman Sect does accept cooperation from anyone. We just practice own martial arts. If you really want to talk about a cooperative relationship, the only way would be for you to join the Freeman Sect and become an İnner

Sect Disciple then we could perhans refer to it as a

383 Chapter

cooperation?”

Keira was dumbfounded.

Was this what martial arts families mean by cooperation?

She had thought it would be like with the Olsen family and the Davis family, where finding a project everyone could make money on was considered cooperation.

After pondering for a moment, she looked at James again. “So how can one join the Freeman Sect and become an Inner Sect Disciple?”

This question rendered James somewhat speechless.

He coughed, lifted his chin, and said, “Actually, it’s very difficult to become an Inner Sect Disciple. Apart from hard work acquired later, it mainly depends on natural talent. Those of us who wish to learn martial arts are

sent to the Freeman Sect for Bone Assessment around

the age of three or four. Only those with exception innate qualities are taken in as Inner Sect Disciples

the Freeman Sect.”

James patted his chest, confidently saying, “Out of the seven Olsen brothers of our family, not even the eldes

was chosen only I was!”

09.24

383 Chapter 382

Keira thought, “That’s your family, not mine.”

But…

If the Freeman Sect only took in kids, she certainly couldn’t turn herself into a three- or four-year-old child, could she? What was she supposed to do now?

The first person she thought of was Amy.

But that wouldn’t do.

Amy’s personality was too gentle, and she wasn’t cut out for martial arts; her bones were too thin and too soft, though she was quite good at dancing.

Keira was troubled. “Hasn’t there ever been an older person who was selected?”

“Yes!”

James said, “Our senior sister, she was noticed by the Sect Leader when she was fifteen!”

Speaking of the senior sister the gatekeeper got excited too. “Right, our Sect Leader said that our senior sister had an extraordinary foundation.

Although she was fifteen, she was especially resilient seemingly because she had been beaten up from a young age. As a result she developed an ironclad body.

09:24

383 Chapter

which is incredibly formidable. She’s a standout talent among our generation. Unfortunately, the Sect Leader has been secretly training her, so none of us have seen what the senior sister looks like!”

Mentioning the senior sister, James also looked wistful. “Our Sect Leader said he planned to have the senior sister come back to the Freeman Sect at the age of 23 to give us some guidance. By my calculations, that time should almost be upon us…”

The gatekeeper immediately got excited. “Second Senior Brother, you’ve practically fought all over the Freeman Sect unbeaten. When the senior sister

arrives, the two of you should have a match! See who is more powerful!”

Upon hearing this, James gave him a smack on the head. “What nonsense are you spouting? How could I compare with our senior sister? The Sect Leader said that she became a disciple at fifteen, became a mas by eighteen, and at the age of twenty, she almost bested the Sect Leader by half a move! I can’t even defeat the Sect Leader yet, how could I compare wit

the senior sister? Don’t stir up trouble for me! I know

my place!”

The gatekeeper chuckled.

Keira, unable to contain herself as the two men chatted enthusiastically, interjected, “Actually, my constitution isn’t too shabby either. I’ve been especially resilient to beatings since I was young. Could you take me to meet your Sect Leader?”

As soon as she said this, both the gatekeeper and Jame’s fell silent.

They both looked toward Keira in unison, twitching at the corners of their mouths as if they thought what she had just said was a joke.

Glancing at James, the gatekeeper coughed and said, “Not to put you down, but you’re over twenty this year, aren’t you? No matter how skilled someone is, by that age their bones have set, and without a solid foundation, it’s no good. The legend of the senior

sister, being able to practice martial arts at fifter the Sect Leader said it was because she never had e to eat or wear when she was young, so her body fully developed…”

Keira explained, “…But I also started practicing ma arts when I was fifteen. Maybe there’s a chance?”

06.24

Back when she had just started middle school, she left the Olsen family at the age of fourteen. After that, she worked to earn money and met a martial arts master of her own.

While she was selling balloons in the park and reading books at the same time, a middle-aged man kept staring at her and then approached her.

“Young lady, I can see that you have an exceptional foundation and a natural talent for martial arts. Why don’t you become my disciple?”

At the time, Keira was almost ready to call the police, daiming he was harassing her, until he finally agreed to pay her five hundred bucks for an hour of martial arts practice with him every day. That was when she consented,

She trained with him for four or five years, and

eventually, her master said he was going to wander world. He told her to keep practicing on her own that he would look for her when the right time car

Come to think of it, it had been two years since she last saw her master.

She didn’t even ask for her master’s name when he

<

383 Chapter 382

left…

Keira then looked toward James. “Just take me to see him. We won’t know if it’ll work or not until we try.”

James wanted to refuse.

But then he remembered his uncle’s instruction from

this morning to be filial to his aunt, and he twitched at the corner of his mouth. “Alright, then follow me!”

James tossed the car keys to the gatekeeper and walked into the compound with Keira.

The Freeman Sect was vast, and as soon as they

entered, they could see martial artists practicing all around, with grunts and shouts echoing non-stop, oozing with masculinity.

After walking with James for about half an hour, they arrived in front of a bungalow. He said, “The Sect Leader is meditating inside. I’ll call him for you.”

Inside the room.

At that moment, Trevor Freeman, the Sect Leader of

the Freeman Sect, had tears streaming down his face. He was looking at a photo with his disciple, Keira, on his phone, sobbing uncontrollably.

09:24

383 Chapter 382

Having been so picky all his life, he had only taken in one disciple, but how could she have drowned so young?!

Just then, he heard James’s voice from outside the door, “Master, I’ve brought someone to see you. Is it a good time now?”

384 Chapter 383

Keira was about to turn 23 years old.

Trevor had just dispatched someone to Oceanion a few days ago to bring her back and let everyone meet this rumored elder martial sister.

He was very fond of this disciple.

Trevor was a very earnest person. After becoming the Sect Leader, taking in disciples was extremely important, as it related to the selection of the next

Sect Leader for the Freeman Sect.

Yet after assessing the talent and bones of his own family’s offspring, even his own son, as well as children from Clance coming to seek martial arts training, he

found none to his satisfaction.

As a result, he delayed the decision for many years.

Adhering to a policy of preferring a lack rather than an unworthy disciple, he absolutely refused to take on disciples. His own younger brother, also the sect’s second disciple’s eldest disciple, James, became very sought after at that time.

10:39 **

384 Chapter 383

Everyone was speculating that James might marry into

the Freeman family, inheriting the Freeman Sect and becoming the next Sect Leader.

Trevor thought so too.

However, this was the worst-case scenario. Given the choice, of course, he wanted the best in the world.

He began traveling around the country, trying to find the most suitable child, until seven years prior when

he arrived in Oceanion.

Back then, in the park, he was watching the running children, but he inexplicably took a liking to a little balloon-selling girl.

The little girl must have just finished school, so she arrived late and could only stand selling balloons in a

corner.

The vendor next to her even bullied her, telling her to sit down or she would block the others’ light.

The little girl didn’t bring a chair, so she simply stood there in a squatting posture.

Trevor found it amusing.

Those who practiced martial arts knew how tiring this

10:39

2/9

<

384 Chapter 383

action was. He wanted to see how long the little girl

could persist, and an hour went by… two hours went

by…

The little girl had persisted in that half-squatting position for a whole three and a half hours!

And the key was that she did so without changing her expression.

Trevor immediately began observing her bone

structure, and upon seeing it, he was drawn to Keira as if a starving wolf had spotted meat.

Thus followed his insistence on teaching her martial arts and having her call him master.

It was only later that he discovered the little girl had a formidable mother who, from a young age, subjected her to beatings and scolding the reason she was so resilient and had such a strong physique was due to

that torment.

Even though the child was already fifteen years old, her body’s age was around ten due to chronic malnourishment; she hadn’t missed the optimal age to begin martial arts training.

No normal child would grow up in such an extreme

10:39

3/9

384 Chapter 383

environment, so her inhuman mother, in an indirect way, had actually done her a favor.

Seeing her potential, Trevor wanted her to quit school

and follow him, but Keira insisted on continuing her

education. Finding no other choice, he settled down in Oceanion for her sake.

From initially practicing an hour each day to two hours, and finally, Keira managed to defeat him!

After Trevor had taught her all he could, he decided to leave, telling her he would come to take her home after she graduated from university at the age of 23.

How could the elder martial sister of the Freeman Sect

be left to wander outside?

After he returned to the Freeman Sect, he mentioned

this to his younger brother and the sect’s disciples, and since then, everyone was joyfully awaiting the elder martial sister’s return at the age of 23!

After a long wait, with Trevor unable to leave due to

sect affairs, he sent someone to fetch her. However,

when the person returned, they reported that the elder martial sister, Keira, also known as Mrs. Horton,

had drowned!!

A

384 Chapter 383

Trevor couldn’t believe this and made a personal trip

to Oceanion, where he indeed saw her tombstone and the photo on it.

It was his dear disciple!

Trevor found it incredibly hard to believe, and deeply impacted, he returned to Clance and became

despondent, shutting himself in his room.

Now, the entire Freeman Sect still didn’t know that the

eldest senior sister had met with an accident…

He didn’t dare to think about it. How incredibly sad, distressed, and pained the entire Freeman Sect would

be if he revealed this news?

He looked at the photo of himself together with Keira on the phone, at the girl’s clear, bright, and beautiful expression as if her voice and smile were still in front of him, making his eyes redden.

His beloved disciple probably didn’t know until her death that she was actually the eldest senior sister of Crera’s greatest martial arts sect, the Freeman Sect, did she? Nor did she understand her importance to the Freeman Sect!

Trevor thought of this and once again clutched his

10:39

5/9

<

384 Chapter 383

chest, his eyes reddened from crying once more

becoming teary.

So, when he heard James’s words, he suddenly felt a bit panicked and blurted out, “This is not a good time!”

In front of others, he had always been the stern Sect Leader; how could he face anyone when he was crying

like this?!

James’s footsteps paused slightly.

Seeming to sense something off in his voice, James asked, “Master, are you feeling unwell?”

Unwell? His heart was practically breaking apart!

Who could have imagined that the future of the Freeman Sect, his disciple, would be drowned to

death?

Wasn’t she able to swim?

Trevor, with tears in his eyes, sobbed and said, “I’m

fine.”

James was perplexed.

Outside.

James and Keira looked at each other, both a bit

10:39 s

6/9

384 Chapter 383

confused about the situation.

However…

Keira glanced at the door, feeling that the voice inside sounded slightly familiar.

But her master was always smiling; the voice inside carried a crying tone, rendering her unable to recognize it.

Yet James, concerned and flustered, asked, “Master, are you sure nothing is wrong? My…”

In the split second when the word “aunt” was about to escape his lips, James realized Keira had just now preferred not to be called that in public, so he quickly changed his way of addressing her. “My friend knows bit of medicine, why not let her check on you?”

James felt that since Keera managed to diagnose Bobby’s brain tumor, she must be a very skilled doctor.

Keira tried to stop him, “I’m not…”

However, James didn’t listen to her at all. “You don’t need to explain further; just help take a look at my Sect Leader. He’s usually very healthy, rarely even catching a cold. What’s wrong with his voice today?

I’ve heard that there’s a new virus going around, targeting people’s throats specifically. Master, you haven’t been infected by this strain, have you? You can’t ignore it; you need timely medical diagnosis and

treatment!”

Trevor thought, “How could this brat be so annoying?!”

He hastily took out a tissue, wiped his tears, and then tried to speak with as much dignity as possible. “I’m fine! Go away! I can’t meet anyone today!”

James didn’t want to leave just like that.

What if Keera complained to his uncle, claiming he wasn’t diligent in his duties?

He coughed lightly. “Master, please don’t say that. Y sound strange, so there must be a problem! I’m con

in now.”

Leaving that statement, he stepped forward and pushed open the door.

Then he winked at Keira, striding into the room with

her!

“Master, my friend here is quite capable, so let her have a look at you. By the way, could you give my

10:39

385 Chapter 384

Keira followed behind James, thinking he was acting

too recklessly.

If the Sect Leader had already said it wasn’t a good time, it wouldn’t have mattered if she had waited.

But since the door was open, she still wanted to seize the opportunity, especially since her master had once said she was a good prospect for martial arts.

She followed James into the room and instinctively

looked toward the Sect Leader first.

Then she heard some rustling sounds, and when she looked over, she noticed the Sect Leader had his back

to them, clearly not wanting to see anyone.

James scanned the room and suddenly sensed that something was off.

There were bundles of tissue on the floor, and the Sect Leader had a hoarse voice when he spoke, so…

“Master, have you been crying?”

James didn’t think to cover for the Sect Leader at all.

385 Chapter 384

Trevór was speechless.

This damnable disciple!

He must tell his second brother to give him a good

lesson!

Trevor took a deep breath. “Get out!”

James felt the Sect Leader’s resentment and didn’t dare delay any further, so he quickly backed away with Keira. “Alright, Master, then we’ll leave you be and won’t disturb you anymore. You keep… crying… By the way, do you want us to bring you a pack of tissues?” His response was throwing a shoe at James!

James instinctively tried to dodge, but if he did, the shoe would hit Keira behind him, so he turned his head, and the shoe ended up hitting his butt.

The other shoe flew at the same time, hitting the door and shutting it with a bang.

James touched his own butt.

He gave Keira an awkward glance, “Aun… Miss Keira, the Sect Leader is in a bad mood today. How about we come back another day?”

10:39

385 Chapter 384

But Keira was looking elsewhere and suddenly asked, “Why don’t you introduce me to others instead? Or maybe I should just take you as my master, that would make me part of the direct line, right?”

“No, no!”

James quickly waved his hands. “We’re in the wrong generation!”

She was an elder. How could he take her as his

disciple?!

Keira thought about it and figured it was true. They were cousins, so it wouldn’t be right to take him as a master because of the generation gap.

Besides…

James coughed and lifted his chin slightly. “Not everyone can take on a disciple as they wish. The conditions for the Freeman Sect’s direct descendants

to take on disciples are very strict…”

Even though there was now a senior sister, if she didn’t marry into the Freeman family, the future Sect Leader position would still be his.

As the prospective Sect Leader of the Freeman family,

10:39

3/9

385 Chapter 384

any disciple he took would be related to the next Header, so the Freeman Sect had strict requirements

for taking on disciples.

Keira asked, “How strict?”

James explained, “First off, disciples who want to join have to go to the Bone Assessment Hall for a bone assessment, then they train for a month, and if they can endure that, they’ll meet the direct descendants. All members of the direct line get to pick their disciples. That’s how I was chosen!”

Keira asked, “What about those who are older? Do they also need to go through bone assessment?”

James nodded. “Of course, no one can skip this step. Bone assessment is very mystical. It can reveal whether you’re suitable for martial arts, if you have any talent, or how far you’ve progressed…”

Keira said, “Then take me to the Bone Assessment

Hall.”

James was dumbfounded.

He looked at Keira in confusion. “That place is currently filled with kids. Are you sure you want to

385 Chapter 384

Keira nodded. “Yes.”

Her foundation was solid. Her master had assured her

there were no issues.

Who knows? Maybe the Freeman Sect would take a fancy to her, not care about her age, and accept her!

James saw her insistence and touched his nose. “Well then… okay.”

So, half an hour later…

At the Bone Assessment Hall, there suddenly appeared

such a spectacle.

Keira queued up, standing among a group of four and five-year-old children, standing out like a crane among

chickens.

The few children before and after her looked at her and all burst into laughter.

This also drew the attention of the people around.

Someone teased her.

“Hey, Miss, don’t you feel embarrassed standing among a bunch of kids?”

Others laughed and looked toward James.

385 Chapter 384

“Second Senior Brother, who is this? She’s so old, the

growth plates in her bones have all fused. There’s no future left for her. Hurry up and take her out. Don’t be joking around here!”

James gave an embarrassed smile and also sighed in resignation.

If this was his own sister, he would have long since forcibly taken her away, but how could he when she was the woman his third uncle fancied?

He should show some respect to his future third aunt!

He coughed and said, “What’s wrong with that? Our eldest senior sister wasn’t discovered by the Sect Leader until she was fifteen. Who knows, my third… friend here might have a good set of bones.”

“The eldest senior sister is a genius, how many of her

can there be in this world?”

“Right, the Sect Leader wandered outside for nearly ten years before he found our eldest senior sister.

Besides, the Sect Leader said that the eldest senior

sister had a special background that led her to this profession. Did your friend also have a tough life growing up?”

10:40

James was speechless.

After finding out that Keera was going to be his third aunt, he specifically inquired about her character.
