“When did you learn to say such sappy things?” Dorothy, on the other end, asked with a smile. She still found those words were somewhat sweet.“These words come from the bottom of my heart. Well, what happened to your mom after I left? Did your mom cause a scene and asked you to divorce me?” Alex said.“Of course, she did!” Dorothy thought to herself.“Don’t mind her. Just think of her as a patient. Oh right, I’m calling to tell you that it’s my grandpa’s sixty-sixth birthday today. We’re going to have a celebration tonight. You’re coming with me,” she said instead.“Your grandfather’s birthday is today? And you’re only telling me now?” Alex asked.“I didn’t want you to go at first, but I’ve changed my mind. I’ll get off work early at four later. Pick me up at the office,” Dorothy said.“Okay, okay. I’ll be on time. Goodbye, mwah!” Alex said.After hanging up the phone, Alex looked up and found that everyone was in daze.That was because the ambience had changed so suddenly tha
Dew Sunder was the real reason why Alex came here.Alex seemed calm as he spoke, as if he was talking to himself, “Anthony Pattingson killed my father in a car crash. Dew Sunder, on the other hand, killed Anthony in prison. Since Dew is your most prized disciple, I have reason to suspect that you ordered Dew to kill Anthony in order to get rid of all the evidence. Tell me, my parents’ car accident that was caused by Anthony ten months ago, were you involved in it too?”Robert seemed even more surprised.“Alex Rockefeller, don’t you sling mud at my uncle without proof. My uncle definitely wouldn’t have ordered Dew to kill whoever man by the name of Anthony Pattingson, let alone involved in your parents’ car accident,” Annalise said angrily.“Why are you so sure?” Alex asked.Annalise glanced at Robert before turning to look at Azure and explained, “That’s because Dew has not been my uncle’s disciple for a long time. He’s a heartless, animalistic b*stard who drugged my cousin… In th
Annalise was extremely upset when she heard that Alex was going to defeat her uncle.“Who do you think you are? A Mystic ranked or Earth ranked expert? Or are you a Grandmaster? My uncle is at half step to Mystic rank. In fact, he has already mastered Rake Fist. You, on the other hand, are just a useless man who lives off women. How dare you speak to my uncle like this?” Annalise spoke in a sarcastic tone.She was loud enough that everyone in the martial arts center could hear her.Everyone else, except Azure, now looked at Alex with a sarcastic and mocking expression on their faces.‘None of you could comprehend Mr. Rockefeller’s level of patience. The more you insult him, the more embarrassed you will be later.’ Azure secretly let a sardonic laugh as he thought to himself.In fact, he had eagerly anticipated how the events would unfold next.Robert waited for Annalise to finish speaking before looking askance at Alex. “Looks like you’re not willing to break your own arms. Forge
Boom!The impact ended up in a burst of explosion due to the strong Chi energy channeled.After being punched, Robert was sent flying backward. Luckily, one of his disciples caught him in time and saved him from the fall. Even so, Robert’s fist wouldn’t stop trembling.Everyone else’s heart sank with restlessness, as they didn’t expect that Alex to be this powerful.The youthful-looking old man was in fact someone that Robert had asked assistance of. Now that Robert was clearly disadvantaged, he immediately stepped forward. “I would like to challenge you.”“Both of you can come at me together!” Alex laughed heartily.The old man and Robert looked at each other. “You’ve got courage!”The two of them really started attacking Alex together. Moreover, they even worked together and launched a pincer attack at Alex.Alex channeled his Chi energy and roared, “Dragon-Tusk: Thousand Blades!”Bang! Bang!Two loud noises were heard.Both the white-haired old man and Robert were knocked
Azure drove Alex to California’s Premier Hospital.That was because Alex’s car was still parked in the underground basement there.When the car stopped, Azure looked at Alex, but he couldn’t bring himself to speak.Earlier, Alex seemed to have promised Azure that he would help him advance to Peak-Royal rank after today’s ordeal.“What is it?” Alex frowned and asked him after seeing the constipated expression on Azure’s face.“Eh… Nothing.” Azure was too embarrassed to say it.“Oh, I remember now. Here, take this,” Alex took a bottle out of his pocket and retrieved three red pills that looked as large as cod liver oil capsules, then placed them on the center console in the car.“What are these?” Azure asked.“Blood energy pills,” Alex said.“What do they do?” Azure asked again.“They help replenish your blood energy,” Alex answered.“But I don’t think I need that,” Azure said.“But you have renal deficiency,” Alex said.Azure’s face twitched as his eyes were widened and ret
Waltz’s leg was about to move up to Alex’s waist.“I’ve seen you practicing. To be honest, that technique is pretty good and has your distinctive features. Most importantly, you’ve been cultivating it for so many years, it’d be a shame for you to give it up. How about this? I’ll help you modify it later,” Alex said.“Deal,” Waltz said.“Here, these are for you. Take one pill every three days. It’ll help with your cultivation,” Alex said before tossing over a small bottle, which contained ten blood energy pills, to her.What would Azure feel if he knew that he had to work so hard just to get two of these pills, but Waltz, on the other hand, only had to poke Alex with her feet to get ten and he even offered to modify her cultivation technique? Azure might actually contemplate changing his gender!“Senior, you’re so nice. Tonight, I’ll make you…” Waltz started speaking.Right then, Brittany and Maya walked down the stairs.“Alex, Waltz, what are you two talking about?” Brittany ask
At this moment, Beatrice and Claire were on their way to her grandfather’s place, driving the BMW M8 that was given to Dorothy by Alex.Beatrice’s grandfather was Aidan Bardot. He has two daughters: Claire was the elder while the younger one was named Adrianna Bardot.Adrianna was much snobbish than Claire, she would always try to compare with Claire in every aspect. Ever since Claire’s husband, Henry Assex, went missing after a trip with his secretary, Adrianna insulted and looked down upon her every time they met.More importantly, Adrianna had a daughter, who was a year younger than Dorothy, she would always show her off in front of Claire.Under such circumstances, Claire naturally couldn't drive her dilapidated car back home. Only a BMW M8 that was worth two million dollars could show her elegance and flamboyance. When the time came, she could get back at her sister to regain her self esteem.“Mom, Sis found a new boyfriend!” Beatrice, who was sitting in the passenger seat, s
Claire was shocked. After looking at the Ferrari and then turning to her broken car, she was instantly bereft of speech, as if she had just eaten a bug and received a critical hit of fifty thousand damage. However, she couldn’t help but curse Alex secretly.More importantly, this wasn’t the end of it.Sharpay brought her boyfriend over to show off. “Aunty, Cousin, let me introduce you to my boyfriend, Edison Hood. He’s an executive of Yowell Group, with a yearly salary of five million dollars! This car belongs to my boyfriend by the way. Oh right, why aren’t Cousin Dorothy and her useless kept… I mean, husband here yet?”As she mentioned the word “useless”, a smug expression was plastered all over her face.Beatrice said, “Sis is still working at her company, so she’ll be a little late.”Adrianna huffed. “Does she not know what day is today? How could a lowly employee like her be busier than my son-in-law in an executive position? I guess the poors always act haughty and stuck-up.
