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
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
“Grandfather?” Alex suddenly laughed when he heard the term. Then, he said, “The word ‘grandfather’ has never existed in my dictionary! It’s never there in the past and it will never be there in the future. I don’t care about anything in the Melvis family!” After a pause for a moment, he instructed Nickolas again. “I’ll bring the pill to you latest by tomorrow night. As for the previous promise, it’s still valid!” After saying this, Alex and Aunt Rockefeller walked out of the Melvis family’s compound. Unexpectedly, they saw Zachary who had a nervous expression at the entrance. He was nervously looking around at the entrance, as if he wanted to look at the situation inside. “Uncle Zachary, you still couldn’t help but come!” Alex said as he chuckled. Zachary immediately let out a breath of relief when he saw Alex coming out intact. He said, “I was worried that something would happen to you! There are many skilled martial artists in the Melvis family, and they even have two
“My daughter, Soraya Melvis looked for Shaun Baker and Lochlan Glen to rescue Tucker Melvis in California before this. Tucker is back now, but what happened to my daughter? I’m worried about her!” Speaking of this matter, Zachary was at a loss for words. He looked at Lexia with his mouth agape. All of a sudden, he slightly regretted walking in there. “Guardian Xavier, hurry up and say something!” “She… Um, she’s fine at the moment. I assure you that I’ll definitely think of a way to bring her back.” In fact, Zachary only came to find out what Alex had done to the people in there. He almost laughed when he saw the Grandmaster Samberg was as black as coal. Now, he could confirm that Alex was indeed Geronimo Melvis’s grandson. Moreover, the poisoners were Ruby Lamar and Bennett Melvis. So, he was even more confident that Alex would become the president of Divine Constabulary. As for the other matters, it could be dealt with later. “Cough, cough! I’ll go look for Alex Rockefe
“Mm, mm—” Alex was stunned instantly. He was shocked and dumbfounded. His eyes were widened as his limbs trembled terrifyingly. The white bath towel that was draped on his body fell off. ‘This… something very bad is going to happen!’ Aunt Rockefeller was undeniably beautiful and charismatic. Her ever-changing temperament would cause people’s hearts to race wildly and their blood to boil. He also wondered if she was really William Rockefeller’s sister. But, what if she really was? If she was his real aunt, he would really get struck by the lightning then! Ten seconds had passed, he could feel the alcoholic breath in Aunt Rockefeller’s mouth had all gone into his stomach. In the next second, he pushed her away heavily and yelled, “What the f*ck, are you insane?! How could you, how could you… Do you really think that you’re Shooriyojou?!” Most importantly, he was slightly afraid. He was afraid that he might fall in love with Aunt Rockefeller!
