Book:A King Reborn in Shadows Published:2024-6-4

Rose had a complex expression on her face as she pinched the gauze on her cheek.
“For those of you who are faint-hearted, don’t look or you’ll have nightmares tonight. You girls should close your eyes!”
“I saw her scar last time, it was at least ten centimeters long and the skin was all wrinkled up. I couldn’t even eat dinner that night!”
“Virginia said the scar has gotten bigger in the past few days, doesn’t that mean both sides of her face will be ruined? Oh my god! That’s so disgusting!”
The socialites whispered to each other with fear and curiosity in their eyes.
A few women closed their eyes or turned away from Rose.
“For those who are full, remember to turn your head away or you’ll vomit!” Virginia took out her phone and opened the camera function aimed at Rose. A smirk appeared on Virginia’s face as she said coldly, “Bitch, don’t cover your face after removing the gauze. You must hold your head high when leaving. Otherwise, Flynn will have to kneel down and crawl out.”
River sneered while also opening his phone camera, “Ms. Sharp, don’t forget to pose for us later.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take pictures from every angle so everyone can see your ugly face without any dead angles! Haha…”
“This is my masterpiece. I’m going to keep it safe and make an album out of it for the Davies’ Pharmaceuticals grand opening!”
Although Layla was Rose’s business rival, she disliked Virginia’s words very much and said calmly, “Rose used to be one of Niarak’s top five beauties with great potential.”
“It’s a pity that she has become like this now. Being photographed like this online is such a shame.”
“River destroys what he can’t get. He’s too malicious!”
“He won’t end well – too bad!” She didn’t feel sympathy nor disgust towards Rose about what humiliation would come next.
Kimber nodded in agreement, “Which girl doesn’t love beauty? Especially women who were already beautiful but suddenly became ugly ducklings – they must feel terrible.”
“If this happened to me personally, then I’d commit suicide!”
“Even if Rose has strong endurance capacity, but if they post these photos online, then jumping off a building would still be necessary.”
Braiden saw excitement flash across his eyes as soon as Rose removed the gauze from her face.
This woman had been fighting against him for ten years during which time he retaliated countless times against her.
This woman was known for being cold-blooded and ruthless – someone who made him smash several glasses before.
This stunning and unyielding woman was about to unveil her face, exposing her most hideous features to the world.
“Rose, your revitalization project will end up like your face – only a divine being can save it!”
As Rose looked at the various reactions of those around her, a determined look flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, she lifted her cold and proud face and ripped off the veil on it with force.
Rip!
In that instant when the veil left her face, the entire room fell silent as if time had stopped.
Everyone’s shocked eyes were fixed on a breathtakingly beautiful face!
Her skin was smooth without any blemishes. On an oval-shaped face were bright but icy eyes that shone like stars in the Arctic sky. Below a straight nose was a pair of rosy lips resembling dewy flower petals with slightly curved corners exuding stubbornness and arrogance.
Snap!
Virginia’s phone fell to the ground.
Boom!
River tightly gripped his phone while his eyes filled with disbelief followed by anger.
Even dogs in the estate stopped what they were doing and stared at Rose’s stunning appearance while dropping their bones from their mouths onto the floor.
“She is so beautiful! Like someone from a painting without any flaws! Is she really an immortal who descended upon us?”
“Rose is even more beautiful than before. Her skin looks like milk foam – tender enough to squeeze water out of it. Even I’m jealous as a woman.”
“My God! I have seen many beauties before but Rose ranks first in my heart – perfect without any flaws just like looking up at moonlight!”
All socialites present exclaimed repeatedly, unable to take their gaze away from this person who made hearts skip beats just by looking at them!
“How could this be possible? It can’t be true! How could she be so pretty? How come there isn’t even one scar?”
“She should have been ugly enough to resemble a corpse running away under my humiliation!” Virginia said angrily through gritted teeth.
But then she was reminded by bleeding wounds that all of this wasn’t just some dream!
“I used poison strong enough for only Ostrad’s top few physicians could cure it. How come this convict can recover?! Why?!”
River’s teeth gnashed loudly, his heart almost exploding with angry blood. He shouted at the top of his lungs, but it was futile: Rose’s scar had been healed by Flynn! The ugly duckling she had longed to be rid of was gone in an instant as the bandages were removed.
Layla stared at Rose’s face in shock, her mind reeling. She looked towards Flynn with a mix of panic and disbelief. This labor camp prisoner whom she had barely glanced at before, the Clark family’s cast-off and the useless son-in-law of the Kaur family – he had managed to heal Rose’s scar in just a few days!
Kimber shook her head incessantly, screaming inside, “How could this happen? How could it be so beautiful? How could someone who is least likely to heal Rose’s scar actually do it?”
Clang!
Braiden dropped his wine glass on the floor and spilled expensive red wine all over his shoes. It seemed as if he was mocking himself for being ignorant and arrogant.
Rose looked at everyone with their shocked expressions and frowned slightly. She took out a mirror and after just one glance, tears streamed down her face like hot lava.
The beauty that shone from her face now made even more stunning by its imperfections!
Despite being strong-willed, Rose was still a woman deep down inside. After her face was cut, she cried almost every night while pretending to be cold-hearted during the day.
She longed for nothing more than for her face to return back to normal even if there were faint scars left behind; anything that would allow her to meet people normally again would suffice!
But despite repeated attempts to seek medical help, hope dwindled away in the passing of time.
All that was left for her were face masks and the persistent pain that wrinkled her face to the point of sleeplessness.
Rose thought that this was how her life would be forever. Little did she know, her disfigured face miraculously returned to normal in just three days under the treatment of the Minor Energy-Enhancing Pill.
And the owner of this medicine was none other than Flynn, the man in front of everyone, devouring meat and drinking wine as if nothing was related to him.
“Thank you… thank you…” At this moment, Rose, known as the strongest, most ruthless, and coldest woman in Niarak, murmured to herself, tears streaming down her face as she gazed at Flynn’s back.
