CHAPTER 664: CHAPTER 664: PROPOSE TO HER FOR ME (PART 2)

Even if he risks refusing to take the job, he can’t protect Nina; Nightfall isn’t the only hitman here.

The Umbral Zone isn’t the only assassin organization here either.

Orion Rivers suppressed these emotions, coldly asking, "So, what’s Emperor Hades’ task?"

"Haven’t figured it out yet?" Emperor Hades glanced at Orion Rivers with a look that said, "How can you be so clueless?"

Jonah Rivers’ expression turned wooden, ignoring him.

Corvus Hades continued, "The task I want to issue is very simple—you go propose to Orion Rivers in my place."

"What? Propose... propose?"

Jonah Rivers’ expression was stunned, utterly shocked.

Emperor Hades, isn’t this guy in the wrong place trying to be funny?

Who goes to an assassin organization to propose?

"Yeah, it’s a proposal. You know how Leo’s temper isn’t great. Ordinarily, people going to propose might get thrown out before even opening their mouth. If, by any chance, Leo loses control and ends up killing someone, what then? My affair with Leo is a joyful matter; blood mustn’t be involved—it’s inauspicious."

Jonah Rivers wondered if he opened the app incorrectly today; otherwise, how could he hear such absurd words from the Ghost Doctor?

"Indeed, my thinking is quite thorough, virtually a little genius." Corvus Hades shamelessly praised himself.

Jonah Rivers came back to his senses, rubbing his brow hard, finally unable to bear it, saying, "I apologize, Emperor Hades, I reject this task."

Though he long saw through Nina’s true nature, realizing he’s been played, knowing this woman would never stay for him in this lifetime, he still couldn’t bring himself to propose to the woman he adored on behalf of another man.

Even slashing the heart and liver wouldn’t hurt so bad.

"Sorry, you can’t decline. Even if you use your withdrawal from Nightfall as a threat, you must complete the task, okay?"

Jonah Rivers: "........."

Jonah Rivers couldn’t hold back any longer, gritting his teeth, yelling, "So, Emperor Hades, are you telling me the SSS task you issued is to propose to The Celestial Alliance Leader?"

"Of course it’s not that simple."

Jonah Rivers’ expression relaxed a little; he knew Emperor Hades wouldn’t go so far, it’s impossible to use an SSS task for such things.

You must know, even though Nightfall is an assassin organization, not any task is accepted. At least to issue an SSS task, you must have their Nightfall qualification card.

Back then, eleven such cards were issued, nine have been retrieved.

Then he heard Corvus Hades say, "Not only must you propose, but you must succeed in proposing and bring Orion Rivers back as my bride; otherwise, it’s considered a failure."

"Haha!" Jonah Rivers sneered twice, immediately hanging up the phone, really wondering where this guy got the confidence that he could successfully propose for him.

You know, Nina had dumped him long ago, got it?

...

Raina North received the news right after breakfast.

Nightfall issued another SSS-level task.

Raina North couldn’t help but freeze for a moment. Although she had long left Nightfall, she still felt deeply connected to many there after so many years.

Especially Jonah Rivers, who was bound to take the lead as the top hitman; thinking of the tragedy of the last task, Raina North’s face turned somewhat pale.

She made a phone call to Jonah Rivers.

"Sorry, the phone you dialed is off."

Raina North tried several other contact methods but couldn’t reach Jonah Rivers.

Raina North couldn’t help but furrow her brow, calling her companion, who had informed her, to keep an eye on Jonah Rivers’ situation and inform her immediately if there’s news.
