The female assistant was stunned.“Will you lick it or not? If you don’t lick it, I will kill you now! B*tch, do you think I can’t tell what you’re thinking?!”Although the female assistant was reluctant, Gill had already accumulated deep influence in her mind, so she didn’t dare to resist him and obediently followed his orders.Just at this moment, the door was pushed open, and a tall figure walked in.It was the Lord Commander, Grant Xenos. Grant watched the two people in the room with an indifferent expression and unwavering eyes. Meanwhile, Gill didn’t notice Grant’s presence at all, right until Grant walked forward and opened his mouth. “Gill, how old are you this year?”“Ah—”Gill was shocked, and hurriedly pushed away the female assistant.In front of Grant, he had always pretended to be a good, obedient boy. He had never been caught red-handed like now. He was stunned as he looked at his uncle in fear and trepidation. “Granduncle, you… when did you arrive?”On the oth
If this scene were to be witnessed by Geronimo, his eyes would have popped out of his head. The dignified Lord Commander of Department Six actually kneeled for his grandson.It was simply an unimaginable scene.“Get up!” Alex waved his hand at Grant. “This matter doesn’t really have much to do with you. But, your dignified Department Six, the highest law enforcement force in the country, looks like a child’s play no matter what. The people in there are all lawless, and they don’t care about their conscience or morals for the sake of flattering you. They could even do something like this. Does the higher-up really have washed his hands of this matter?”Grant quickly replied, “It’s not like that. This is an isolated case, and it’s the result of Lennox Johansson egging the entire thing on.” Alex shook his head. “I highly doubt that’s the case. I think you should check the people under you carefully.”“Yes, I will do a thorough investigation once I get back!”“I’m not bothered abo
“Hahaha…”Back in the main hall, seeing Alex safe and sound, Brittany, Geronimo, and everyone else let out a breath of relief. Geronimo asked what Grant had spoken to him about, and Alex found some excuses to muddle through the questioning before everyone started chatting once again.Then, Geronimo brought up a topic that he wasn’t aware of being sensitive and said, “Daughter, your husband has already been gone for a year. You’re young and beautiful. You can’t intend to stay widowed forever, right? Do you want me to ask your second mother to find you a suitable man?”Alex immediately replied, “No!” Geronimo glared at Alex. “Oh, you stinky brat. You already have so many wives and concubines. How can you let your mother be a widow? Your mother is also a normal woman, and she has needs. It can’t be that you expect her to rely on herself only every day?”This old man was speaking so shamelessly.Brittany’s face was already flushed from embarrassment and immediately interrupted Geron
“Soul Substitute Lotus Seed?“Why is it here?!”Once Alex had examined Brittanny’s condition, he collapsed to the ground in disbelief.Geronimo was also dumbfounded and quickly asked, “What is this Soul Substitute Lotus Seed? Alex, hurry up and tell us! What’s wrong with your mother?”Maya, Waltz, Michelle, and everyone else were also distracted and stunned, and they hurriedly helped Alex off the ground.Alex’s face was pale, and his heart ached. “My mother’s soul is not complete. Usually, a person’s soul has three souls and seven spirit components to make up a whole soul. But, she only has two souls and six spirit components. She’s missing one from each, and the Soul Substitute Lotus Seed is serving as a substitute for those missing parts. It’s a kind of spiritual device, and it’s really rare, but there are times when it will also shatter.”“What?!”“Then, how is Mom now?” Maya asked. “Although she appears to be normal with the use of the Soul Substitute Lotus Seed, it's a co
When she received the call from Alex, Cheryl thought it was to announce the good news, and she was in a good mood. “Alex, I’ve seen the news. Congratulations, you’ve managed to turn things around.”However, Alex’s voice was hoarse. “Cheryl, something’s wrong with my mom. Hurry over and have Guilherme have a look at her.”“Huh? What happened to your mother?”“We’ll talk about it when you’re here.”Cheryl was anxious. Alex’s current medical skills were already several times better than hers. If even he was helpless, then Brittanny was definitely in big trouble.She didn’t hesitate nor stop in her steps as she rushed out the door, and she soon arrived at the Rockefeller Manor.***“Soul Substitute Lotus Seed?” When Guilherme saw Brittanny’s appearance, he could immediately tell. Before the Soul Substitute Lotus Seeds had broken, it had merged as one with the soul, and nothing wrong could be seen. This was also why Alex hadn’t been able to find anything wrong with Brittanny be
“What?!“Are you calling my senior?”Quincy was dumbfounded, but he quickly sneered. The existence of his senior was an immovable mountain and the leader to the Drifters. Even the Abstracts were well aware that the more great thing about him was that Zayne was not an ordinary person. Compared to Zayne, even a hundred Quincy would be no match for him.How was it possible for a person like Alex to be able to contact Quincy’s senior directly?“Hmph! I don’t know where you found out about me having a senior, but do you think you can deceive me like this and gain my trust? You really take me for…”Before Quincy could finish speaking, Alex held out the phone to him. “Your senior wants to talk to you!”“What?” Quincy was taken aback, and he looked at Alex in a daze.Two minutes later, he took the phone. “Hello?”“Quin!” The moment Zayne called him that name, Quincy was shocked, disbelief clear on his face. It really was his senior! In an instant, his eyes were red-rimmed. His senior w
The feeling of being energized rushed through Quincy once again.He couldn’t help but scream, letting out a punch at the limestone nearby, suddenly smashing it into pieces. It seemed like he was a bit more powerful than before.He laughed loudly. “Boy, so what if you’re William’s son? I wouldn’t even do it for your father’s sake. I’m well aware of your strength, and you can’t stop me if I want to leave! Since you’ve restored my energy core, I’ll spare your life today. You want to go to Caesar's tomb? That’s just walking into your grave! I’m leaving!”After saying that, Quincy laughed out loud again.Seeing how Alex was just standing there expressionlessly, Quincy thought that he was stunned. Quincy felt even more proud of himself. He immediately stepped down and headed out of the manor.“Idiot!” Alex said softly. “Is it really necessary for this guy to go with us?”In the next second….Boom!Quincy came back again, thrown heavily to the ground. He was unable to get up for a
“Alright, I’ll be there later!” Alex thought for a while before agreeing.He was going to head into Caesar's tomb soon, and to be honest, the more he understood, the less confidence he had. If even his father had been trapped in it, how could he return safely?He wasn’t sure.However, for the sake of his parents, Alex needed to make the trip.This was an obligatory matter as the son of the man.Dorothy had been his original partner, and she should understand this, and it was a matter Alex needed to explain clearly to her. Claire heard his agreement and was happy. “Okay, I’ll go shopping now. What do you want to eat? If you can tell me now, I’ll have some idea of what to shop for.”“Anything is good. I’m not a picky eater… Uh, or maybe it’s better if you wait for me to come over and cook!” Alex said.The things that Claire cooked couldn’t be forced down the throat, and if they weren’t careful, they might end up being poisoned to death.***On the other side, Rhea Hauffer had
