Chapter 1256
He would have fallen to the floor if not for the seatbelt.
His heart was racing and it took him a few seconds to regain his composure. When he looked at her again, all he
saw was a beautiful woman looking at him puzzledly.
Her eyes were no different from an ordinary person's and in fact, was even more beautiful.
Thea looked at Francisco, turned away, and looked out the window without saying a word.
The scenery outside the window was a wide blue sky with white clouds drifting serenely through it.
"Was I seeing things?" Francisco mumbled to himself in confusion.

I’m from Terentville. I own a barbecue restaurant franchise and I’ve opened more than 30 chain restaurants
already. I’m planning to expand my business to the Capital and am heading there to survey the market."

mentioned having a successful franchise.

"Miss..."
Francisco chased after her.

After a few seconds, he put on another charming smile. " Miss, I see that you’re a woman with a bold personality. Is
this a prop? Are you an actress by any chance? I know several great directors. How about I help set you up..."
Suddenly, Thea winced in pain, and veins bulged out on her face.
"Get lost!!!" she roared at the persistent man.
She saw red and was just about ready to separate this man's head from his body.
However, she forcibly stifled the murderous desire in her heart.
Francisco was left speechless by her sudden outburst and froze for a few seconds.
By the time he had processed what had happened, Thea was already walking away from him.
He found that he had been sweating bullets and that his forehead was slick with sweat. He straightened himself and
muttered scornfully, "What the hell was that? How could a bombshell like her act like a complete brute? That one
roar made me feel like I was dragged into an abyss."
It took all Thea had to restrain herself from going on a rampage.

passed.

remembered how to get there.

photograph with a number of gathered around it somberly.

Immediately, many of them drew their swords and pointed them at her menacingly.
"Thea, your husband killed our Grand Patriarch. Today, we’ll have your blood to make up for his death!" one of them
roared.
