Ray’s voice carried the sorrow of a man utterly alone,
He was not reconciled; he was so unwilling.

He thought, ‘Why every time at the last critical moment, Xander would come out and interfere? If it weren’t for him, I would have eloped with Athena now p>
Xander’s eyebrows furrowed almost imperceptibly. “Ray, it was your own ambition that led you astray. Athena is innocent. She bears such a big crime for your rebellion. It was your ambition that harmed you, and it has nothing to do with others p>
“You’re talking nonsense. That’s not how it is at all.” Ray roared, but his eyes were wandering.
‘No, that’s not how it is. All my ambition is because of Athena,’ he thought.
Xander snorted coldly, “If you really cared about Athena, how could you let her marry into the Xander Manor? Don’t say you didn’t have the ability. If you wanted to, you could have stopped her, but you didn’t. Aren’t you just afraid of losing the power you had in your hands?
“Speaking of which, you love power more than anyone else. Ray, you are the selfish, pathetic wretch p>
Ray shook his head randomly. “No, that’s not right. That’s not how it is p>
He didn’t think he was such a person. He loved Athena.
Xander took a step forward and looked at him coldly. “I can give up the power in my hands, even the wealth and glory, for Athena. Do you dare? ”
Ray choked suddenly. He hesitated for a moment before replying. “I do p>
“No, you wouldn’t.” Xander chuckled softly, “I’m not stealing what isn’t mine. I’ve given you countless opportunities, but every time, you put Athena in danger. I even thought about letting you two be together, but you simply couldn’t protect her. You’ve been blinded by hatred. Athena is just an excuse for you to climb higher.
“You still dare to say you truly love her? If you truly loved her, you would have taken her far away. How could you just watch her suffer in Pidence City p>
Ray was rendered speechless. He opened his mouth and looked at Athena in anguish, shaking his head slowly. “No, it’s not like that p>
But aside from repeating these words, he had nothing else to refute.
Athena felt a mix of emotions. She took a deep breath and was about to speak when she saw Ray suddenly break free from Xander’s hold and lunge toward the long sword on the ground.
“Be careful! ” Athena exclaimed.

Xander was prepared and reacted quickly, kicking the long sword far away.
At the same time, he slapped Ray in the chest with a backhand.

Ray flew out, crashing heavily into a tree trunk. A fishy sweetness surged in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He struggled to get up, but his whole body was exhausted. He could only slump on the ground, his eyes filled with despair as he looked at Athena.
“Atheny, no, that’s not what I meant,” he said.
Athena turned her face away, no longer looking into his eyes. “Ray, whatever happens next, you brought it on yourself. I’ve already shown you more mercy than you ever deserved p>
She was clearly filled with hatred when she said this.
Xander only showed mercy to Ray for her sake.
But Athena didn’t allow him to kill Ray.
“Men, take him away.” Xander ordered coldly.
Ray looked at Athena in despair and burst into a desperate cry, “Atheny, Atheny p>
But Athena no longer looked at him and turned to enter the carriage.
Just then, a flare exploded in the sky.
A sound of fighting and killing came from the distance, and a team of well–equipped soldiers rushed towards them.
At the same time, countless fireballs exploded on the ground.
Almost simultaneously, Xander lunged at Athena, holding her tightly under the carriage.
Explosions rang out incessantly.
Several dark figures suddenly jumped down from the canopies on both sides, moving as fast as ghosts.
