I’m Someone Else

Chapter 189

At this moment, Thomas was not only furious that they kidnapped Olivia but also because he felt cheated. He could not bear to think what horrible thing might happen if Olivia hadn’t escaped. Would he continue to be fooled into treating the faker as the real Olivia and protect her for a lifetime? What about the real Olivia? She might have been “sacrificed” and given to someone else!

As for why he did not make any further investigations even though he felt Shadow seemed strange, it was because Shadow and Olivia looked too much alike. Also, he had underestimated how shameless the Pearson Family could be! Never would he have thought Terrence would commit such a shameless act. That alone was enough to sentence Terrence to death. Every core member of the Pearson Family must die too! That was something they deserved!

Duban narrowed his eyes, looking at Thomas. He knew the man must have exceptional skills to be brave enough to barge into their home.

Bam! With both legs forcefully jumping off the ground, Thomas shot toward Duban like an arrow, swinging his fist at Duban’s face so quickly that one could hear it whooshing.

The battle began without a single word of nonsense.

Duban’s pupils contracted. Thomas was fast, so fast that it shocked him. But that was it. He wasn’t nervous or anything and merely moved quickly to the side to dodge the attack.

Such a change shocked Thomas as Duban was the first person, after returning to the city, to dodge his fatal attack that contained 80 percent of his strength. He didn’t expect the Pearson Family to have such a strong master amidst them. It seemed like Quincy was right when he said the Six Greatest Families weren’t as simple as they seemed. However, no matter how strong Duban was, he was still doomed to die!

Turning around, Thomas swung his leg and kicked the old man by the waist, and this time, he used his full strength, which allowed him to attack even quicker.

“Not quite!” Duban bellowed while placing both hands on his waist, blocking Thomas’ attack.

Then, Thomas moved both hands and began attacking with military boxing techniques. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Swoosh! Swoosh! In just a breath’s time, he had thrown six to seven punches. But what was that sound, one might ask? That was the sound of his fists rubbing against the air! That was how quick his punches were!

Gasp! Terrence and Howard took in a sharp breath because they finally realized how terrifying Thomas was. It was just that he had never revealed his true strength, which was terrifying! Only a rare few in Irieson had martial arts skills of such an extent, and the ones they knew were all martial arts experts from the other great families. However, those people, like Duban, had spent most of their lives practicing martial arts. But how old was Thomas? He looked to be in his twenties. How could someone younger than thirty years old be so powerful?!

He was a prodigy! An absolute prodigy!

Meanwhile, Duban was forced to retreat under Thomas’ fierce attacks. At that point, he could only defend but not attack.

When Terrence saw that, he began trembling uncontrollably while his heart raced. He had a feeling that perhaps Duban might not be Thomas’ match either…

But he quickly shook his head to stop himself from having those thoughts. If Duban could not defeat Thomas, then he might not survive today! So, he assured himself in his head, Elder Duban can do it! He definitely will win! It’s just Thomas, an arrogant young lad, so Elder Duban will crush him! Thomas

hasn’t been alive as long as Elder Duban has, and Elder Duban has dedicated his life to practicing martial arts, so how could Thomas possibly win?

After thinking of that, Terrence calmed down, while Norman also sighed in relief after seeing his father had calmed down. Thomas and Duban were fighting so fast that Norman could not see what was happening, but his inability to see what was going on might also be due to him being less skilled in martial arts than his father. He could only see two entangled shadows and nothing else, not even what techniques they were using.

On the other hand, Duban felt bitter because Thomas was quicker than him. Therefore, he could not dodge Thomas’ endless attacks and had to use all his strength to defend against those attacks. But what alarmed him was that Thomas was not only quick but also had strength that was almost on par with his. Duban was certain that if he hadn’t reacted in time, he would have been killed by Thomas’ punches. Most importantly, his hands slightly tremble after blocking so many attacks, so if this battle continued, he would definitely lose! That could not happen! He could not lose because the Pearson Family would get annihilated if he did!

“Ahh—” Duban roared and stopped defending. Instead, he began madly attacking, aiming all his attacks at Thomas’ vital spots!

Meanwhile, Thomas was startled by the sudden change but wasn’t afraid. Instead, his desire to fight became more intense. It had been a while since he met such a worthy opponent, so he had to make the most of this opportunity!

Smack! As Duban was a long-established master, he was more experienced in battles and caught a chance to deliver a smack to Thomas’ shoulder. Despite the fact that Thomas also had quite a lot of experience in combat, his experience leaned more toward sniping and assassinations. Therefore, he was somewhat inexperienced in face-to-face combat.

As one would expect from the Pearson Family’s guardian, he is highly skilled. Thomas stumbled back and looked at Duban warily.

“Not bad. Not bad at all!” Duban looked at him with appreciative eyes. The younger generations had succeeded the old! Not many youngsters in Droycore could engage in such a long battle with him without losing. Also, his previous attack was aimed at Thomas’ chest, and Thomas seemed to have reacted in time and forcefully turned his body so that his shoulder would take the hit instead.

Brilliant! If the Pearson Family can take in such a talented young individual, he will certainly give the family a huge boost! Didn’t he fall out with the Pearson Family because of Olivia? Since Olivia’s destiny is set, we can’t give her to him, but we can give him Ophelie, or even Shadow, who looks exactly the same as Olivia! He can even have all the money he wants!

“Thomas, if you’re willing to submit to our family, we can put the past behind us. Then, we will even give you money, even more than you can imagine!”
