The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor
Chapter 863

Ivan flashed a bitter smile. "Ah, we have no choice. Who knew that Fane would pull a stunt like this, getting the nine Gods of War to come for his wedding!"

Cecilia thought for a while, then she asked, "So you're saying that the eight other Gods of War are all at his wedding because they wanted to boost his reputation? They're not here because they wanted to see Lana?"

Ivan was speechless for a moment. "Of course. They could have seen her at any time they wanted. Why would they choose today, of all days? They're here because of Fane!"

"But how does a good-for-nothing like

Fane, know such people? No way that he saved all of their lives before, in addition to

Lana's!

Cecilia huffed. She really could not understand why the Gods of War would come from afar for the sake of Fane's reputation-just to attend his and Selena's wedding. "That man isn't a good-for-nothing.

Besides, you're right on the nail. With his medical skills, he's become the designated doctor for the Gods of War. Fane had helped to cure them when they sustained injuries. That was why they came here for his wedding. They rushed over once they knew that he was having a wedding!"

Ivan did not know whether to laugh or cry." F*ck that b*stard. He really managed to do a good job hiding his identity. No wonder he had the money to buy the Heart of the Abyss. With his status, he probably hasn't even received his bonus after he came back.

"I don't care. I just want to see him die. Didn't you say that your girlfriend, Xena fed him the poison? Why isn't he showing the slightest symptoms till now? I'm getting impatient. Why isn't he dead yet?" Cecilia was so furious that she stamped her foot. She looked at the huge screen opposite her hotel-at Fane and Selena, who were drinking along with the Gods of War and Old Man Taylor. Her throat constricted.

"I don't know either. Jeez. I had seen him just a few days ago. He told me that he was feeling extremely unwell. I don't know why he's still standing there and drinking wine as though he were perfectly fine. Logically speaking, even if he doesn't die anytime soon, he shouldn't be able to drink so merrily!" As Ivan spoke into the phone, he pulled out a cigarette and lit it. He was extremely doubtful.

Cecilia thought about it. "Maybe Xena lied to you?" she said. "Women like her are always up to no good. She's only with you because she wants your money. You shouldn't believe someone like her!" Ivan took a long drag from his cigarette, looking at Xena, who was drinking at a table. Then he shook his head. "I don't think so. She has no reason to lie to me about this. Besides, she hates Fane so much tha she wants him dead as soon as possible. She had perfect chances to poison Fane while she was with Ben. No way that she lied to me about this!"

After he remained silent for a few seconds, he made a guess. "Maybe this will be his last hurrah. It should be happening any time soon. Let's wait for a bit. This is his last day. This is probably the calm before the storm!"

"All right. Don't disappoint me!"

Cecilia hung up, huffing.

Ivan walked over to Xena's side after the call ended. "Xena, are you sure that Fane drank that poison?" he asked softly.

"Of course. I saw him drink it with my own two eyes. How many times are you going to ask me about this?"

Xena was speechless for a moment. She felt that Ivan did not trust her.
