Chapter 1215
Boom...At three in the morning, the sound of Melvis manor’s door crashing down was too loud to ignore. Families from hundreds of meters away could hear it and were startled, thinking it was some explosion.Alex’s jaw dropped open.Not because of the great noise, but because of the technique that Aunt Rockefeller used. It was beautiful, with her in jeans and black boots. That kick was a perfect copy.“Aunt, what was that style called?”“Beauty's Heart Sutra.”“Ah…”“Only a woman can learn this style so you can forget about learning it, but it was beautiful, wasn't it? That technique was called Jade's Graceful Kick! Do you wanna try taking it?”“...”Arm in arm with Alex, aunt Rockefeller marched through the threshold without hesitation.Ruby Lamar was currently on the east side villa of Melvis's family home. A woman of advanced age, even though she was worried for the safety of her grandson, Tucker, her body could not withstand staying up, so she retired to her bedroom and sl

Right after the last word left her lips, a human figure shot through the room like a bolt of lightning.That human figure was Samberg, who had earlier ran to check on the door.Looking as if he had just come out of an oven, his clothes were scorched black, and his face and hair were charred.“Ahhhh!!!”“Samberg, what happened to you?”Samberg was actually a distant relative from Lexia's side of the family, and he was a relatively strong grandmaster. Even Lexia addressed him as master. But seeing him like this made people break out in a cold sweat at how strong the enemy was.Alexis, another strong grandmaster, looked to be in bad spirits as well.“Madame, the situation is bad. The enemy is powerful. It's a cultivation guru, and they even have Mr. Tucker as a hostage. There is no way the martial artists in the Melvis family can stop them. I’ll send you away from Melvis family home at once to ensure you're safe,” Samberg said in a hushed voice. “What?” Bennett Melvis started to

“You… you're talking shit!”“You're the one who can't get it up! I can even raise dumbbells at my age!”Bennett was blinded by rage. What was more humiliating and degrading to a man than to be accused of being unable to get it up?Ruby Lamar burst out in anger. “Stop spouting your lies! My son had two sons! What do you mean he can't reproduce? Who are you? A madman? How dare to come into the Melvis family home and cause such a disgrace! You must be sick of living!”Alex gently shook his head. “That can only mean one thing, that those two grandchildren aren't yours. If you don't believe me, feel free to do a DNA test.”After a halt, he kicked Tucker again. “Alright, it's done. If you really are Bennett's son, you would've been dead. But since you aren't, I'm willing to let you go free. You can get out of here now!” If he were the Tucker from before, he would've taken this chance without hesitation. God knew how much he wished this was all a nightmare, but Alex's words hit home

Alex explained. “You need not fear me so much. I won't do much to you… for now. I just want to make one thing clear! Forty-five years ago, was it you who forced poisoned wine upon Yvonne Wilmer and Brittany Rockefeller?”His voice was sharp, clearly demanding an answer.After he was done, Ruby's legs started to shake uncontrollably, as if an entire mountain weighed on her shoulders. She could barely stand anymore.Lexia was planning to call in reinforcements from the Divine Constabulary and even more from Alaska to back Alex into a corner.However, at Alex's question, her thoughts were put to a halt.‘What is this situation?’She stared at Alex, the wheels turning in her head.What had happened back then… she remembered everything so vividly.Yvonne and Brittany had gone missing on a very stormy night. A typhoon warning was even called. He heard that the Red Guard had found new evidence of Yvonne working with the underground, and they wanted to arrest her for questioning. Ger

Lexia's eyes widened, and she stared at Alex in shock.“He… He's Madame Brianna’s son?”At that moment, Lexia went silent for a while, but Alex could hear her rapid breathing. "Look for someone named Nickolas. I don't know if he's still there, but if he is, perhaps he can give you answers."After saying that, she hung up.Putting down the phone, she took in large gulps of air. It was easy for a clever woman like her to figure out some things. She just never dared to believe it.***Putting down the phone, Alex's expression was closed, shuttered by his mother's words— ‘If there really was poison involved back then, who would be so cruel as to force a ten-year-old to drink it? Geronimo Melvis? That doesn't seem very plausible. Which father would force his own blood daughter to drink poison?’ "Is there anyone here named Nickolas?" Alex's body felt itchy. He was not good at controlling such murderous rage. His heart ached for his own mother. “Answer me!”He stomped his feet, a

Alex's palm collided with her cheek.“You’re the one who's in a hurry to end their lives!”Lexia glanced at Ruby and encouraged Nickolas to continue speaking, “As long as you stick to the truth, I'll let you make the choices.”“Thank you, Madame Lexia! This is how the situation happened. I fell asleep in the tool shed and heard Madame Ruby and Madame Yvonne walking in. Following them were the ancient iron guards.“I heard Madame Ruby accusing Madame Yvonne of being a spy for the underground. He wanted to poison her, but since she resisted, he had the guards hold her down and forced her to drink the poison.”“Afterward, I also saw Master Bennett forcing Lady Brianna to drink the poison. After they were done, they left, saying that they would take care of the bodies after they decompose.” “Since I felt indebted to Lady Brianna, I could not just stand by and watch them die. Good thing I had an antidote to the poison. After I fed it to them, I helped them to escape this family.” I
Chapter 1221
Gulp!The pill of black parasitic worm went into Bennett’s stomach without any barrier. Soon, he acted the same as his mother, clawing and scratching himself while rolling on the ground and wailing to the sky. It turned out that once the parasitic worm fell into one’s stomach, no matter if it was a half-stepped Grandmaster or a dying old woman, the result would be the same. Seeing such a tragic scene, the rest of Melvises could not help but feel their blood ran cold. Click! Alex snapped his finger. Ruby and Bennett immediately quiet down and the extraordinarily feeling of itchiness on their bodies earlier disappeared all of a sudden. However, when the two took a closer look at their own stomachs, they let out a high-pitched scream. On top of their stomachs were full of bloodied wounds scratched by themselves. They were badly mutilated, it was a horrific sight. What was even more disgusting was some little fleshy worms actually crawling around the wounds. A few of them coul

Seeing the pair of mother and son saving their own faces in such a way before the situation of life and death, the people next to them could not help but sighed. Alex waved his hand. “Enough. Stop passing the buck to each other here. It’s useless no matter how you shirk the responsibility! Next, I’ll give you three months’ time. You have to come to my grandmother’s grave and knock your heads to the ground every day in order to repent of your sins. Three months later, I’ll decide if I want to remove the parasites in regards to your performances.” Bennett was dumbfounded. “Need… need three months?” “Then, can you keep the parasitic worms from attacking us within these three months?” Alex grunted. “What are you thinking? This is a punishment for you. Remember, my grandmother’s grave is at the Long Beach’s Lofty Hill Cemetery. Won’t you just get out of my face now? Do you want to increase the number of times you’re eaten by the worms every day?” A shiver ran through Bennett’s bod
