The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1869: Chapter 1869: Treat Him Well, Keep Him Here!

“With Uncle Enzo’s words, my mind is much more at ease.”

Alfred Weaver replied with a smile, his gaze falling on Diego Heath’s face, and with a gentle smile, he said, “Everything is in the past, Big Brother Diego shouldn’t dwell on it. To be honest, it was I who first befriended her, and I was the one who always invited her along. I can only say I lacked judgment in choosing friends, harming myself and implicating Big Brother Diego as well!”

Diego Heath looked at the gracefully smiling Alfred Weaver in front of him, feeling a complex mix of emotions.

He and Alfred Weaver were childhood friends, and both had quite a good impression of each other. If there were no surprises, he and Alfred Weaver would definitely end up together. Even if it wasn’t a passionate love, they cared for each other, understood each other, and harmony was inevitable.

All of this was destroyed by that woman.

If only Maggie Fitzgerald had harmed Alfred Weaver, it would have been easier to handle. He could have fully aided Alfred Weaver in seeking revenge, but in reality, he was kept in the dark, and in the end, he even married Maggie Fitzgerald, the true culprit, and had a child with her!

During the past ten millennia, Maggie Fitzgerald used every tactic within the Northern Mystic Sect to gather a significant number of followers, leading to at least one-third of the people following her and defecting from the Northern Mystic Sect when the incident occurred, severely weakening the sect’s strength.

In his youth, Diego Heath was praised as one of the Northern Mystic Three Heroes, unmatched in fame, but now he was heavily impacted by this matter.

He had become the sinner of the Northern Mystic Sect!

He was even more ashamed to face Uncle Yao, who appreciated and cherished him!

More importantly, if Maggie Fitzgerald stood in front of him now, could he kill her without hesitation, avenging Alfred Weaver?

Could he kill the mother of his child?

Even if he did not love her, could he bring himself to do it?

It was precisely this soul-searching that continuously tormented his heart, making him feel increasingly guilty and powerless. This was not something that great strength alone could resolve.

Alfred Weaver’s kindness only added to his shame and sorrow.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know what I can do to make up for the harm done to you, but I can give you my life. As my father said, anyone wanting to hurt you will have to step over my dead body!”

Alfred Weaver held no resentment toward Diego Heath. In the end, he was just an unfortunate pawn in Maggie Fitzgerald’s schemes.

From start to finish, Diego Heath had never intended to harm him. On the contrary, after the incident, he went through great lengths and distances to find him.

“Big Brother Diego, there’s no need for this. As Carson Flores said, we do our best. Even if the outcome is not ideal, we must preserve our strength, for there will come a day when we reclaim everything. If we die, then there is truly nothing left.”

Diego Heath nodded silently, while Enzo Heath asked softly, “Is Carson Flores the Human Emperor who rescued you from the Barbaric Wilderness Realm’s seal?”

Enzo Heath and his son had visited the Celestial Palace once before, bearing apologies and inquiring about Alfred Weaver’s situation. They were aware of Carson Flores’ existence, but not of subsequent events.

Alfred Weaver smiled, “Yes, not only did he rescue me in the Barbaric Wilderness Realm, but when Maggie Fitzgerald led people to assassinate me, he again saved me. During the operation to eradicate the Southern Alliance of the Heavenly Alliance, he served as vice-captain and used stratagems to infiltrate the alliance, achieving a nearly zero-casualty victory that severely crippled the Southern Alliance. Recently, he went to the Dragon Spirit Continent, single-handedly thwarting the alliance’s plans with the Dragon Clan…”

Enzo Heath widened his eyes in shock, saying, “His strength should not be high, right?”

Alfred Weaver smiled radiantly, her expression filled with genuine pride, “He ascended and became Immortal, arrived in the Immortal Domains just over a decade ago, and he’s already at the late-stage True Immortal. Now he’s in seclusion, aiming for the True Immortal Peak.”

Enzo Heath and Diego Heath were both shocked. Diego Heath, as one of the Northern Mystic Three Heroes, was naturally a talented prodigy, yet even he wouldn’t dare claim he could progress so much in a decade.

“His talent is so high, practically monstrous!”

Alfred Weaver shook his head, “His talent is actually average. His whole body is Sword Bone, a Pseudo Sword Spirit Body, possessing the Heavenly Path Phenomenon, yet he lacks an Innate Taoist Body… Each of his advancements was won through perilous opportunities.”

Enzo Heath asked in surprise, “No Innate Taoist Body, yet possesses the Heavenly Path Phenomenon?”

Alfred Weaver explained, “A powerful being extracted a Wondrous Phenomenon Seed from an Innate Taoist Body and planted it in him. They say the success rate is very low, but he eventually succeeded.”

Enzo Heath was awestruck, wondering what level of prowess one must have to possess such divine techniques.

“It seems he may not be innately talented, but he possesses great fortune. Achieving so much at a young age, his future is limitless. Such a person, niece, you should truly… treat him well, see that he stays in the Celestial Palace!”

Enzo Heath initially intended to say “recruit,” but hesitated and changed it to “treat well.”

From Alfred Weaver’s tone, he could tell that Alfred Weaver held unreserved gratitude and trust for him, even pride in what he had done.

Alfred Weaver smiled lightly, “We are friends. Though I am currently the master of the Celestial Palace, it is always he who has been helping me, and I’ve hardly aided him. I can’t even provide him with some Immortal Elixirs for cultivating; he still has to find them himself…”
