"None of those Zhengs or Wangs will do, absolutely not!"

Grace Clark: "..."

The woman in white gripped Grace Clark's hand even tighter, gritting her teeth as she said, "Don't think that just because you have that marriage contract, you can marry my sister. Let me tell you, sooner or later I'll make my family cancel that contract!"

Grace Clark stood there, his face pressed against the wall, stunned.

???

There's actually such a good thing?

He'd been worrying about how to cancel that marriage contract, so upon hearing this, he immediately said, "You said it! Whoever doesn't cancel it is a dog. Do you dare to swear? Right now, immediately, at once!"

"That contract was arranged by Grandfather, but Grandfather has already passed away, so the contract naturally doesn't count anymore..." The woman in white was speaking when she suddenly paused, "Eh~~~"

She looked at Grace Clark in disbelief and said, "What did you say?"

As she spoke, she had already let go of Grace Clark.

Grace Clark seized the opportunity and said, "I've wanted to cancel that stupid contract for a long time too. No time like the present—how about we go to your house now? Do you want to bring it up, or should I?"

Before he finished speaking, he was once again twisted and pinned against the wall. The woman in white looked displeased and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Grace Clark was dumbfounded.

Even a clay figurine has a temper. He used a bit of force, broke free from her hold, turned around, and angrily cursed, "This won't do, that won't do, are you crazy or what!"

This time, however, the woman in white didn't get angry.

She looked Grace Clark up and down with a strange expression, then suddenly asked, "Have you been practicing martial arts?"

She had noticed yesterday that Grace Clark was surprisingly strong, and just now, when he broke free from her, the strength he displayed was not that of a normal person.

Grace Clark hadn't awakened any supernatural abilities, so martial arts was the only possibility.

At this moment, Grace Clark was still fuming. Rubbing his wrist, he snapped, "Why do you care..."

The woman in white didn't say anything more, but suddenly threw a punch at Grace Clark.

Grace Clark instinctively countered, grabbing her wrist.

However, as soon as he grabbed her wrist, a chill suddenly surged from within her body, and a layer of ice formed on Grace Clark's hand, quickly spreading toward his shoulder.

At that moment, a force within Grace Clark's body seemed to be triggered.

Where he held her wrist, frost began to appear as well.

The woman in white broke free from Grace Clark, her face lighting up with surprise: "You've really awakened a supernatural ability!"

Grace Clark's expression darkened a bit. He knew this was because he had just obtained the ice ability and hadn't fully mastered it yet. When attacked by the same power, the force within him automatically counterattacked.

Then he noticed that, although the woman in white looked a bit shocked, she was actually more happy than anything.

Grace Clark frowned.

He was the one who awakened a supernatural ability—what was she so happy about?

Crazy!

Chapter 005: This Isn't Right!

After just one day, being caught at a brothel by his future sister-in-law again, Grace Clark was already prepared to take a beating.

But what he never expected was that Emily Turner actually let him go, and she even seemed to be in a pretty good mood, humming a tune as she left.

A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Grace Clark could only curse "crazy" in his heart, then head toward the Lin residence.

He would never go to a place like a brothel again.

First, his goal had already been achieved, so there was no need to go back.

Second, when Emily Turner left just now, she said that if she ever caught Grace Clark at a brothel again, she'd break his legs.

This woman had a special status, was extremely powerful, and didn't know her own strength. To be honest, Grace Clark was a little afraid of her.

...

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

During these three days, Grace Clark had stayed at home the entire time, not stepping out of the Lin residence even once.

After all, he used to be just an ordinary person. Getting hit by a meteor and transmigrating—no normal person could accept that reality so quickly. It took Grace Clark three days just to mentally adjust to this strange new world.

At the same time, he was also getting used to his abilities.

At this moment, Grace Clark possessed three supernatural abilities.

Strength, ice, and beast speech.

People who have just awakened supernatural abilities often can't control their powers. In these three days, Grace Clark had crushed four bowls and seven teacups. Fortunately, he was the master of the Lin residence, so no servants dared to ask questions.

Now, he had more or less adapted to the changes in his body and could control the power within him at will.

At present, there was still one more issue Grace Clark needed to consider.

Awakening a supernatural ability was only the first step on this path. To continue growing stronger, he would have to keep training.

For example, both Grace Clark and Emily Turner possessed the ice ability, but Emily Turner could use it in combat, while Grace Clark could only cover his hand with a thin layer of frost—just enough to keep himself cool in the summer heat.

These days, David Harris liked to hang around Grace Clark, because the weather was unbearably hot, but it was always cool around the young master—the closer you got, the more comfortable it felt.

Who would have thought the young master would awaken a supernatural ability, and such a powerful one at that—the ice ability! It's just a pity he awakened it too late and missed the best age for training, or else he could have been a prodigy in the capital, just like the second young lady.

Grace Clark was thinking about the same thing.
