Goosebumps appeared on Helen's mature body, She didn't since when or did she even had this feeling ever in her life.

This is a very exhilarating feeling with a weird sense of joy in it, A deep wanting to stretch herself totally to duel with this new member.

But then as she suppresses that feeling of competition, She realised a fearful fact, There is an S-Rank around Alex.

If she could find it with just one look at his potential then that means this new woman also knows it or she as S-Rank will not be close to an F-Rank warrior like Alex.

In her mind, lots of things were going on. She even thought of ending this woman here as Alex's secret also stayed here but she quickly dropped that idea.

As she was not sure she can do it, And even if she did it will not be quite as she wanted, Other hidden monsters will be alerted making her action not only futile but also causing more problems.

So now she was in a helpless situation not knowing what to do with this uninvited guest.

'She can help.'

If anyone is most happy about the emergence of Xiao Bai then that person will be Alia.

Before she was feeling very helpless, She knew even if she goes all out it will be nothing but a moth jumping into the fire, She can never beat her mother.

She blamed herself for why not she trained more. If she did then she should not have been this helpless.

But after Xiao Bai appeared, Hope came with her as she heard Helen calling Xiao Bai S-Rank.

And Alia did not doubt that this woman is S-Rank as now that she was on guard against her mother, She felt that seemingly infinite power surrounding Xiao Bai, Which she only saw in her mother.

So now there was a chance of going against her mother and stopping her from marrying Alex but Alia was still very different from Xiao Bai.

Alex called this woman his pet. How can she be S-Rank's pet? So there is definitely an ulterior motive this woman has for her Alex.

After the betrayal from her mother will not take the matter lightly. She does like that helpless, weird feeling seeing him with other women but he is hers and only hers, No one can steal him.

'Why is she here? She will be in danger if she goes against Madam Miller.'

Grace calmed down from her initial shock and started looking for the logic behind Helen's action, Though she did not find it but her guts told her that there is definitely a valid reason behind Helen's sudden declaration.

Yeah, she of course ignored the comment Alex passed about Helen and him doing what husband and wife are supposed to do, Her mind really filters this thing very effectively.

'Mother should know to handle this situation.'

Grace couldn't help but think about her mother, As she used to tell her tales of these superpower beings as fairy tales in childhood.

Little Grace of course used to think this product of imagination even though her mother insisted that it was all real.

After all, she got mature and very young, So in her eyes, her mother was just doing it to make her happy and give hope by telling her there is a world in the world.

The world of fantasy did not let her worry about their current living as it did not that much mattered but then today she got proof that it was real.

Alex had shown her that world her mother always talks about, If that is the case then her mother should also know more about it.

That is why she can keep calm even knowing that she might once again lose Alex. This mental fortitude is given as she is also a future business queen.

"Hey, Xiao Bai, Are you afraid?"

Alex does not care much about Helen's announcement as there are nearly thousands of ways to avoid it in his mind but only became of the mission he was hesitating before.

But now he was more worried. When Xiao Bai appeared with his bond with her, He feel fear in her heart and her anxiousness.

He does not understand why she was feeling this as Helen is strong but Xiao Bai is a beast and had the advantage of being in the same rank.

Still, He did not waste time thinking and took her in his arms to comfort her turbulent heart.

*Sniff* *Uhwaaa* 

As he did that, Xiao Bai was at first startled and scared but after sensing the familiar embrace, She as a strongwoman of S-Rank burst out crying like a child in his arms.

Alex was shocked, Not only he but others too were shocked seeing the strong woman in their eyes bawling in her arms Alex.

Helen couldn't believe what her eyes were seeing, For a moment she even thought of the possibility of being in the illusion but that thought went away as it came because if it was an illusion, She should have broken it by knowing it is an illusion. please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

But the scenery in front of her didn't change. It was still the same, making her believe that she was maybe in a very strong illusion or that This S-Rank woman was really crying, Which is even more unbelievable.

As every S-Rank has their own pride, Their head can be cut off but can't be lowered, So she has never seen the S-Rank crying nor she imagined if it was even possible.

'Did I misjudged her?'

Helen couldn't help but to think of it. She knew this was not possible as the fear had risen from deep in her heart, proof that this woman is S-Rank but still what she was seeing was also not possible.

Alia too was in deep shock, Though she did not know the pride of S-Rank as much as Helen but she knew that a strong person like S-Rank never cry like this making her wonder if her mom wrongly estimated the strength of Xiao Bai.

Grace was natural or rather her soft heart felt bad for Xiao Bai as she felt that these tears were genuine. She who spends most of her life crying can tell if someone is faking it or not.

"Who bullied you, Xiao Bai? Tell me I will teach them a lesson."

Alex was confused because of a sudden change in Xiao Bai, His sharp eyes directly locked with Helen asking her, If she was behind Xiao Bai's condition but Helen quickly nodded her head negatively.

Now Helen felt ashamed as when he looked at her, Her heart jumped in panic and quickly answered losing her authoritative aura and her pride in being S-Rank.

'System what happened to her all of sudden? Who is responsible for this?'

Seeing Helen decide, Alex worriedly asked the system as he was confused about what could make Xiao Bai this afraid that she cried.

He also became angry as he can bully his women but others can't. If they do, they have to pay the heavy price for it.

Did that make him a hypocrite? Yes but he never denied being one like protagonists do.

[Ding! You are, You left her all alone in a strange unknown place, Remember she thought strongly but her mind is still that of a child, Being left behind by you made her panic and on top of that she also lost her way here making her more afraid resulting in this situation.]

The system quickly came out of its slumber and answered Alex. It was connected to Xiao Bai though Alex can feel her emotions, So it answered him.

'Me?!!'

Alex did not expect to hear it but then he realised his mistake. He was so fooled by Xiao Bai's mature appearance that he forgot that she had just been born a few hours ago and was new to this world.

So of course, she will be like a lost raft in the middle of nowhere in the vast ocean without any destination.

"Xiao Bai I am sorry, I should have not left you there, Will you forgive me? If you do, I will cook delicious treats for you."

Knowing it was his fault, Alex tightened his hug and softly and gently in an apologetical tone said it to her.

He now knows beasts mature very fast but they still need some time, So he had to take care of her during that time like a child.

"Wh-What treats?"

Xiao Bai suddenly stopped crying as her two big icy blue misty eyes looked straight at Alex in curiosity and asked in her childish voice though she was still not able to speak properly. 

She is just like a child who quickly forgets the reason she was crying and is distracted by the treats in Alex's mouth.

"Lots of it, I will cook both you and Shapira, Okay?"

Alex's heart melted seeing those eyes, They were clean without any tricks or deceit but only filled with innocence.

In this world where everything is after their interest, She is a unique specimen.

"Yo-u o-kay."

She looked up at him and said, " Alex guessed she had forgiven him but it might be hard for her to speak forgiven.

[Ding! Hidden achievement completed : Conquer Of Heart Of Beasts.

The Beast Storage function is unlocked.]

As Xiao Bai said, The system voice also rang in Alex's mind.
