“You!” Michelle was so angry she could not say a thing.However, at the moment, the rear of the car was hit.“What happened? Did you hit someone? Jerk, I told you to focus on your driving! Oh great!” Michelle called out. Before she could make sense of what happened, another large car, driven against the traffic, headed for their car at full speed.The headlamps were so bright that one could hardly open his eyes.“Ah!” Michelle instinctively screamed.If being hit head-on with the car, even an M8 could not withstand the impact force and it might be squashed like a meatloaf.At this moment, Alex slammed his foot on the throttle and managed to dodge the oncoming car with a sharp left swerve. The large car scratched the rear of the M8 before crashing into the black Honda, which followed right behind.Bang!The situation was alarming.Without hesitation, Alex once again stepped on the throttle and sped away.Returning to her senses, Michelle said, “It was an accident, your car has

What would one feel when a car crashed into a river from a large bridge at a height of thirty meters?Anyway, it was a magnificent sight.A loud noise sounded with a boom, and the splashed water went up to a height of ten meters. It was no different from crashing into a concrete surface.The airbags were instantly deployed. Michelle fainted in a state of extreme fear.On the large bridge, a few passing cars stopped to check out what happened with a few people contacting the police as well. A woman, who wore a mask and a cap, came off from one of the dump trucks.She was Pepper Kimmich.Walking toward the edge of the bridge, she took a few glances down into the waters below before hurriedly speaking into her dedicated headset to give her orders, “Stand by the river in case they try to escape. Divers, prepare to get the items. The rest on the ground, retreat and watch for cover. The authorities will be here soon.”After firing off a few orders in quick succession, she left in

As the phone was hung up, Baldy yelled, “You are going to accompany the old man? Who does he think he is, why don't we just kill him?”“Not yet, he is still useful to us,” said Pepper.…Splash!On the north side of the East River, Alex crawled out of the water, with Michelle in his arms, onto the sandy banks.He immediately did cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Michelle, followed by mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and stimulation of the electric Chi needle. In less than a half-minute, she coughed up the river water and woke up.“I am still alive?”“Just barely.” Alex struggled to sit down on the ground.What happened earlier was really treacherous.The deployed airbags were a hindrance to his escape. Moreover, after the impact of the collision earlier, the front car was deformed and Michelle’s legs were wedged in the car.After exerting tremendous effort, he managed to free her from the car, only to be swept away by the strong currents.Fortunately, they were both alive.Miche

The next day, two cars arrived at Maple Villa’s entrance before 7 a.m. Inside the front car, a luxurious Porsche, was Spark, Carol, Olivia, and Mariah. Spark’s arm hadn’t completely healed yet; hence Carol was the one who drove. Following them was a box truck, within it, a coffin they had bought last night.Bursting with excitement and joy last night, Spark could barely get any sleep at all. The lack of sleep had caused him to have a pair of bloodshot eyes.Nonetheless, he still seemed pretty energized.He just couldn’t sleep, thinking about Alex’s death. Now, he was sending a coffin to his house, and he would be able to insult Brittany harshly as well. It was all so exciting, more exciting than sleeping with any woman...That, however, reminded him about something unfortunate. After previously unable to get it on with a model, Spark felt as if he was experiencing a mental block.Lately, he hadn’t been able to get a physical reaction at all.The other two women sitting in the b

The two fighters then moved a rosewood coffin out from the truck. As they placed it on the ground, it thudded loudly, shaking up a cloud of dust from the pavement.“Ah!”Even Waltz screamed upon the sight of the coffin, the expression on her face grim.In their culture, giving a coffin as a gift was an extreme taboo.Brittany’s face drained of color, her whole body trembling.Spark cackled once more and croaked pretentiously, “So? Do you like the gift? Just so you know, this coffin is made out of high-quality rosewood. It’s a pity that Alex, my dear cousin, had to die at such a young age!”“It was such a pity that he had to toil away for the Assex’. His wife wouldn’t even let him sleep with her! All he could do was lie in a crummy room, taking care of the three women’s daily necessities. He got insulted every single day too! Oh, what a shame!”“My cousin was so poor; I bet he couldn't even buy himself a coffin, which is why I’m here with this gift! I’m so sorry for your loss, Au

Alex strolled into the gate, holding a bag of breakfast biscuits. He had gone out to train early in the morning and decided to get some breakfast afterward.He didn’t expect to come back to a bright red coffin at his doorstep, let alone meeting Spark and the others.His tone was calm, yet his gaze extremely chilling.‘Who the heck would just send a coffin to someone’s doorstep when there wasn’t a funeral, to begin with?’“Son!” Brittany rushed to Alex and hugged him tightly as soon as she saw him. Tears streamed down her cheeks, and she just couldn’t hold them in anymore.Before Alex came back, she had been truly terrified by the news.Brittany was emotionally fragile at this point. She just couldn’t bear losing another loved one.“Mom, what’s wrong? Am I not standing here in front of you, alive and well? I was just worried that you’d be stressed out from making breakfast every day. That’s why I got some for us.” Alex smiled.On the other hand, Spark and the others just couldn’

Waltz clapped to remove the dust off her hands. “Brother, I’m done.”Brittany, however, was slightly shaken at the scene. “Alex, would they suffocate in there? We are still relatives, after all, and a light punishment would suffice. If something bad were to happen to them, then this wouldn’t be the end of it.”Alex replied, “Don’t worry, Mom, nothing bad would happen to them.”He used his index finger to poke a few holes into the coffin, ensuring that they had enough oxygen to breathe.“Waltz, take care of mom. I’ll be sending this coffin back, along with these bastards.”Brittany knew that if she let her son go alone, he might make matters worse. She immediately said, “Alex, I’ll go with you.”Waltz wanted to tag along as well, seemingly excited.“Then… alright! But let’s have breakfast first before we go. It won’t hurt to take a short break.” A few moments later, a large Mercedes Benz drove right in front of Rockefeller Manor.Noah and one of their security guards carefully

John’s meeting had just ended. He went back to his office and thought about how his family had sent Brittany a coffin.He hated her immensely, even though she was his sister-in-law. Back when William was still alive, Brittany was second-in-charge of the sales and finances of Rockefeller Group. It was extremely difficult to pull tricks behind her back when he was working under her.She had scolded him multiple times for tampering with documents, and humiliating him. He had always wanted to hire some men to kidnap her and humiliate her twice as much as she did to him.However, due to a meeting with the directors, it was regretful that he had to miss out on a great show.He immediately called his son, yet Spark didn’t pick up.‘This little brat, how dare he ignore my calls? Is he having too good of a time insulting that b*tch? Hence why he couldn’t hear his phone ring?’Just then, Pepper walked into the office, and she had on an elegant black uniform, with a pair of heels. She was
