Alex’s heart sank with restlessness. Recalling the look in her eyes when she first saw him, he secretly thought, ‘It’s over. My dad was a Casanova. Could it be that he hooked up with this Aunt Grace as well? If that’s the case, it would be too embarrassing. ‘Oh, that’s not right. ‘Phoebe Larsen, she can’t be my dad’s offspring, right?’ For a brief moment, he actually had an illusion of becoming Giacomo Casanova. On the other hand, Phoebe exclaimed, “Mom, you guys really know each other? That’s so strange. How did you meet his father?” Alex was curious as well. Grace said, “It’s a long story. Alex’s dad, William Rockefeller, was like an elder brother to me. He could be said to be my half-master. My martial cultivation was actually passed down from Alex’s dad.” As she spoke, she started reminiscing. She then looked at Alex and turned to her daughter again. She smiled as she said, “Back then, it was a night with a bright moon on the sea. I was stranded on an isolated isl
Phoebe’s expression changed abruptly. “Impossible, absolutely impossible!” “Hehe, I’m just saying. I, too, think it's impossible!” Alex smiled. “Hmph!” She stomped her feet. “Is the boat I gave you before still there?” “That broken boat is so ugly...” Seeing Phoebe’s cold yet stern expression, he immediately said, “I think it’s still there!” “Now we’re talking! Sigh, who would have thought the little boy in my imagination has turned into a jerk like you. All the beautiful illusions belonging to my childhood are shattered.” Alex scoffed. “Touché! Get back to Michigan!” Phoebe gritted her teeth. “Hmph, I’ll bite you to death if you ever dare to mistreat Cheryl.” Grace, who was walking in front of them, deliberately stayed away for a while. Seeing them whispering to each other, she couldn’t help but think of something. ‘Since Bro William has passed away, it'd be perfect if these two kids could tie the knot. It’d be considered to be fulfilling a promise of the past.’ ***
In fact, he even worked as a chief instructor for special agents. Could it be that he had used Rockefeller Group, his mother, and him as smokescreens to confuse others? ‘Then, how sincere were you toward us?’ For a moment, he even wanted to give up on looking for William. He felt that William had concealed too much information from them. Even his bed partner did not know his actual situation. How cruel was it to Brittany? *** At the same time, at Lush Cosmetics in Michigan. With the joining forces of Brittany and Maya coupled with Alex acting as the go-between, they had successfully acquired the dying enterprise belonging to Susan Hunter’s family, including a total of 1500 workers and a factory building with an area of more than six thousand square meters. After completing the procedures, Douglas Hunter was very happy. Although his daughter Susan was already in good health and was no longer in a hurry to use the money to treat her disease, he managed to give a decent wa
“Mom, what happened?” Maya did not pay attention to the voice on the other end of Brittany’s phone. Only until this moment did she realize that something was not right.Brittany put down the phone. “Someone has kidnapped Stephen Hendrix and even beaten two of our people to death.” Upon uttering such a remark, everyone present was a little shocked. Douglas said, “Mrs. Rockefeller, do you need me to step in and lend you a hand? I, Douglas Hunter, still have quite a bit of reputation in this area of Michigan.” Brittany said, “I still don’t know the exact situation for now. If there’s a need for that, I’ll come and ask you for help. Let’s call it a day for today’s dinner. We have to hurry back and take a look.” Douglas hurriedly nodded in agreement. After Brittany and Maya left, Douglas looked at the dishes on the half-frozen table. He stretched out his hand to try it out. As a result, he immediately retracted his hand. If he had not retracted his hand fast enough, his finger
“Alex...” “Lil’ Bro...” Seeing Alex rushing over, everyone was excited. It was as if they had found their mainstay. Alex knew that the situation was urgent, so he pushed Nicholas back into the operating room right there and then. “Hey, who are you? He’s dead!” “Are you nuts? You can’t simply enter the operating room. You’ll contaminate the entire environment...” A few doctors immediately shouted. “His life is at stake. Mom, stop them!” After pushing Nicholas into the room, Alex immediately locked the door. How could this be okay? The few doctors certainly disagree with them. ‘Are you guys trying to make a ruckus at the hospital?’ ‘That guy is still fiddling with the corpse inside. What should we do if they were to slander us afterward?’ As the chief surgeon thought about it, he immediately shouted, “Call the police and the security...” Smack! Brittany threw out a bank card. “Here are twenty million dollars. We need to borrow your operating room for a while. Yo
In front of Operating Room No.3, it was as noisy as a wet market.A dead person had been resurrected.When such amazing news exploded, it practically shocked everyone. Those who had operated on Nicholas knew best about his situation, and he was obviously already dead. Being brain-dead was irreversible, and there was no precedent for resurrecting the dead in this world before. It was an atomic bomb in the medical world!“Could something have gone wrong in the middle of it? Maybe the machine malfunctioned?” One of the doctors who rushed over said with doubt.However, no one could come up with a reason. A situation like this was not uncommon, but what was more surprising is that Nicholas’ skull had been sawed open during the operation, but now he came out completely intact.Alex had brought back Nicholas from the edge of death this time, and it had taken a massive amount of effort and all of the skills he had. He even had to use all thirty-six of the dragon bone needles.After savin
Inside, he thought, ‘Is it the difference between men and women? Both Mom and Hailey said the same things, so it can’t be a lie.’ However, when he got nearer to her, it felt as if he had ants in his pants, and he couldn’t think of anything else but doing the deed… Then, there was only one other explanation. The fragrance from Maya’s body had a calming effect on women, but it was the opposite for men.However, this was not something he could tell them so casually.So, he changed the subject instead. “Do we know who kidnapped Stephen?”***Half an hour later, they arrived back at Lush Cosmetics. Holly had already returned and brought with her two beaten-up people in her hands, they were black and blue all over, covered with bruises, and their faces were swollen.“They’re the ones who killed our people and took Stephen away?” Brittany asked. “They’re not the ones. These two turtles didn’t have the capabilities to do it. It was Joshua Jones.” Holly had found some information thr
Alex was taken aback for a moment. He had just been thinking about heading over to Amaryllis Tower to look for Joshua Jones, and now Sky had a mission at the exact same place. This really was a situation of ask, and you shall receive.“I’m in Michigan right now. Tell me what’s the situation.”“So, there’s a murder case involving Amaryllis Tower. A small martial arts family in Missouri was cruelly killed last night. Children as young as three to as old as eight to thirteen years old were all tortured and killed. And crueler and strangely, all thirty-three of them had all their blood drained completely from their body.”“There are still such things happening?” Alex was shocked.“The Divine Constabulary has been investigating this case for a long time, and the final clue has been confirmed to be in Michigan’s Amaryllis Tower.” Sky paused. “But, this is a cross-district case, and the one who’s in charge of this case isn’t California’s Divine Constabulary, but Missouri’s. We’re only ass
