Phoenix Revenge System-Chapter 93: PRS

Time passed quickly, and tonight the Alegra and Cromson residence was bustling with activity as Isabella and Morgan Elio would be getting married the next day.

"Auntie! Look, I brought a big teddy bear!" one of the little nieces shouted happily as she ran around the living room.

"Be careful, little one! Don’t hit the flower vase!" warned one of the aunts loudly.

"Wow, it’s so crowded tonight. It’s been a long time since this mansion has been this lively," said one of the uncles, smiling at the warm family atmosphere.

All the relatives from the two families began arriving one by one, bringing the two main mansions of the two great families in the capital to a bustling, uncharacteristically quiet, as everyone was busy with their own affairs outside the home. The mansions were only open in the morning and evening.

"Mommy, are all the rooms ready for guests?" one of the family members asked their mother.

"Yes, dear. Everything is ready. We just have to wait for our big day tomorrow," replied the mother with a beaming face.

The laughter and cries of children echoed, while Isabella, who had been forced into her room after dinner to rest and look fresh the next day, could only sit there, nervously playing with her phone.

"Bella, you should sleep. You’re going to have a long day tomorrow," Liora said, knocking on her sister’s door.

"Yes, sis. Soon," Isabella replied, her voice filled with nervousness.

Tomorrow she would be Morgan Elio Cromson’s wife, and hold the title of young lady of Cromson, the wife of the patriarch of the richest family in the country of South Korea.

"Oh my God, I’m really getting married tomorrow," Isabella muttered, staring at her wedding dress hanging in the closet.

Although there was no love yet, Isabella felt comforted by Morgan Elio’s attitude and attention, making her uneasy.

"Why is my heart beating so fast? This isn’t my first wedding, but it feels different," she whispered, holding her pounding chest.

This was the first time Isabella had experienced something like this. Before, when she married Revan, she wasn’t this nervous, but now, imagining Morgan Elio’s dashing figure made her body feel hot and cold, and her face flushed from the many things a newlywed couple would do on their wedding night.

"Oh my gosh! Why is my mind wandering?" Isabella said, fanning her burning face.

"Come to my senses, Isabella! Come to my senses!" she muttered, slapping her left and right cheeks alternately with her palms, trying to dispel the adult scenes playing in her head.

"Arghhh! Why am I being such a pervert!" she cried under her pillow so her voice wouldn’t cause panic.

"Calm down, Bella. This is normal. You’re a nervous bride-to-be. It’s natural," she muttered to herself as she caught her breath.

Isabella lay on her king-size bed, tossing and turning with uncertainty. Although she couldn’t sleep, she tried to close her eyes, as the next day would be very busy.

"Gotta sleep...gotta sleep...I need my full energy tomorrow," she said, closing her eyes tightly.

As midnight approached, Isabella couldn’t close her eyes. She lit aromatherapy incense to relax her body and mind, and took sleeping pills to help her fall asleep quickly.

"Hopefully, this will help me sleep well," she murmured, drinking the sleeping pills with a glass of water.

Once the sleeping pills had taken effect, her eyes closed completely, a situation that someone with malicious intentions took advantage of.

Realizing that there was no movement in the room, a man crept up to the balcony.

CREAK!!!

"Shhh... slowly," the man whispered to himself as he carefully opened the balcony door.

The door to the balcony opened, revealing someone entering the room. Isabella was already sound asleep, the effects of the sleeping pills making her unaware of anyone approaching her.

With slow, cautious steps, the person approached the bed. Seeing Isabella’s peaceful face sleeping soundly on her soft bed, a faint smile spread across his handsome face.

"She’s beautiful... like a sleeping angel," he murmured, his gaze filled with obsession.

Isabella’s room was quiet and dimly lit, relying only on the light from the hallway leading to the bathroom, while all the lights near the bed were off to allow its occupant to rest peacefully.

The man who had approached silently stared deeply at Isabella, a glint of obsession clearly visible in his eyes.

"Isabella..." he greeted softly, his voice trembling with emotion.

The man leaned forward slightly, closing his eyes as he greedily inhaled the scent of vanilla milk emanating from Isabella’s body.

"Ah... this scent. The scent that always drives me crazy," he murmured, his eyes closed.

Satisfied, he opened his eyes and gently caressed the face of the girl he missed so much.

"Isabella! How could you do this to me? You clearly knew that I was the only one who loved you so deeply and sincerely! So why... why did you marry that man! Why! Why didn’t you give me a second chance? Isabella! Why!" he said, suppressing the anger, disappointment, and sadness within him, refusing to accept the fact that the girl he loved so much would soon belong to someone else.

"I’ve been waiting for you... I’ve changed... but you still don’t see me," he continued, his voice hoarse and full of pain.

News of Isabella and Morgan Elio’s marriage has shocked the country of Indonesia. Everyone who still hoped the girl would break up with King Cromson has finally had to accept the news that their chances of winning this beautiful, goddess-like girl are completely dashed.

"Everyone’s talking about your wedding. Everywhere, it’s just you and her. I... I can’t accept it!" she hissed through gritted teeth.

Even the marriage of two prominent families in the country of Indonesia was predicted to be spectacular, driving Alesio Xander, Isabella’s ex-lover, to a desperate trip to the country of Indonesia, armed with the black magic he’d acquired after performing various rituals to make Isabella irresistible.

"I’ve done everything. Ritual after ritual. All for you, Isabella," he said, pulling a pocketknife from his pocket.

"I’m sorry, Isabella. You asked for it. If I can’t use subtle means, then I’ll use harsh means to get you. One thing’s for sure, you must not marry Morgan Elio, because you are mine forever!" Alesio muttered obsessively.

"We’ll be together forever. In life and in death," he added with a creepy smile.

Alesio’s hand reached out, gently caressing his ex-lover’s smooth face, "You’re so beautiful, my dear. From now on and forever, you’ll be mine! Alesio Xander’s!" he murmured, smiling happily.

[DING!!!]

[HOST!!! WAKE UP HOST!!! THERE’S DANGER!!!]

The Phoenix System continued to scream loudly in Isabella’s mind, still under the influence of the sleeping pills she’d bought at the Phoenix System, oblivious to the danger threatening her.

[HOST! THIS IS AN EMERGENCY! WAKE UP NOW!]

[THERE’S AN INTRUST! HOST IS IN GREAT DANGER!]

No matter how loud the Phoenix System screamed, Isabella remained unmoved, frustrating the Phoenix System.

[DAMN! THE SLEEPING PILL IS TOO STRONG!]

However, Phoenix System’s anxiety was short-lived because as soon as the pocket knife Alesio pulled out grazed Isabella’s wrist, she woke up and instinctively slapped Alesio’s hand holding the knife hard, sending the sharp object flying away.

KLONTANG!!!

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Isabella screamed, her eyes wide.

BUGHH!!!

"AAARRGHH!" Alesio screamed in pain.

CRASH!!!

"Aaargghhh!!!" Alesio screamed loudly as Isabella’s raw punch struck him in the stomach, after breaking his wrist first, sending Alesio flying backward and causing the wall he hit to crack.

"You! Who are you?!" Isabella snapped, taking a guarded stance.

Isabella, hearing a familiar scream, immediately sat up and, using her goddess’ eyes, stared at the man who had dared to sneak into her room and harbor ill intentions in the darkness.

"Alesio!" Isabella muttered, shocked to discover that the man she had just beaten was her ex-boyfriend.

"N-no way... why is he here?!" she cried in disbelief.

The commotion inside Isabella’s room drew the core members of the Dark Evil and Black Rose teams, who had been hiding in the shadows, to emerge and immediately subdue Alesio.

"Miss! ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?!" shouted one of the Dark Evil members as he ran in.

"SECURE THE INTRODUCER!" the team commander commanded loudly.

Previously, they had all been hypnotized by Alesio’s black magic. The man’s loud screams were what alerted them, and they quickly took action, realizing something was amiss in their young lady’s room.

"What happened? Why are you all only coming now?!" Isabella asked accusingly.

"I’m sorry, Miss! We don’t know what happened. It was like someone hypnotized us," one of the members replied, a look of guilt on her face.

In the darkness, Isabella could see Alesio’s eyes turning blood red and a dark aura enveloping his body.

"Oh my... this isn’t the Alesio I used to know," Isabella whispered in horror.

"GRRRAAAHHH!" Alesio roared in an inhuman voice.

Five Dark Evil members were easily dispatched by him, as were three Black Rose members who had rushed forward after the Dark Evil members were defeated.

"GET AWAY! HE’S TOO STRONG!" one member shouted, flying against the wall.

"DAMN IT! WHAT IS THIS?! HIS STRENGTH IS NOT NORMAL!" another member gasped.

Seeing everyone seriously injured, Isabella immediately jumped up and attacked Alesio with a barrage of blows.

BUGH! BUGH! BUGGHHH!!!

"ALESIO! REMEMBER!" Isabella shouted, continuing her attack.

"ISABELLA! YOU’RE MINE! MINE!" Alesio retorted, his eyes glowing red.

He easily deflected Isabella’s blows, making her suspect someone was possessing her ex-lover.

"This isn’t Alesio anymore... something’s wrong," Isabella muttered, taking a step back.

Realizing this, Isabella immediately took the high-dose anesthetic she had just purchased at Phoenix Systems and injected it into Alesio’s neck, causing him to collapse unconscious.

SLAM!

"Sleep!" Isabella said, injecting the needle into Alesio’s neck.

"Ughhh..." Alesio growled softly before collapsing.

Seeing that Alesio was unconscious, Isabella gave him a nerve-numbing drug so that when he woke up, he wouldn’t struggle and endanger everyone’s lives.

"Give him this too. The maximum dose of nerve-numbing," Isabella ordered, handing the vial to one of the officers.

"Ready, Miss!"

"Take him to headquarters and put him in cell 5!" he ordered firmly, his voice still trembling with shock.

"Yes, Miss Isabella! We’ll take him immediately!" replied the team commander, signaling to his men.

Cell number five in the underground prison within the Dark Evil headquarters was a special prison where dangerous enemies they captured were housed.

"Make sure no one can help him escape. Maximum security!" Isabella added firmly.

"Understood, Miss!"

Isabella didn’t know what had gotten into Alesio. Even though she had been given a nerve-paralyzing poison, to ensure the important event the next day wouldn’t be disrupted, she was forced to be cruel to her ex-lover and place him in the highest-security special cell there.

"Alesio... why did you do this?" Isabella whispered as she stared at Alesio’s body being dragged out of his room.

"Why did you have to be like this? You’ve turned into a monster," she continued in a sorrowful voice.

Isabella sat on the edge of her bed, her body trembling after the brief but intense battle.

"Phoenix System, thank you for waking me up in time," she said to herself gratefully.

[You’re welcome, Host. Luckily, Host reacted quickly.]

"Yes... otherwise, I can’t imagine what would have happened," Isabella replied, holding her injured wrist.

What should have been a peaceful night leading up to her big day had turned into a nightmare she would never forget.
