“You are wishing for my mother’s death, aren’t you?” Nancy Carter was livid.“I was just stating the truth.” Alex Rockefeller heeded no attention to Nancy. “Now that I am here, she will live.”“Who knows if you are deceiving us?” Nancy retorted. Meanwhile, Wallace Yoke checked the old lady’s pulse again. For three full minutes, he remained motionless with a solemn expression on his face. Finally, he shook his head. “I am sorry, I don’t think I can do anything here.”Alex told Hailey Lawson, “Why don’t you leave everything to Doctor Yoke and me? Wait for us outside the bedroom.”“Sounds good.” He escorted a scowling Nancy and Zack out. Hailey left as well.Jim Sabinsky wanted to remain and help, although, in actual fact, he was waiting for a chance to expose Alex’s ruse.“Sure, why not?” Alex grinned.Three men and an old lady were the only ones left in the bedroom.“I am actually protecting you by not letting you treat her,” Alex told Jim.He pointed at the old lady, seeing
To kill the little demon on the spot, all he needed was the Thunder Palm Mantra.Alex Rockefeller changed his mind after seeing the insignia since he wanted to find out who was behind the old lady’s possession.Whoosh!He muttered an incantation to immobilize the little demon and used a red thread found in the bedroom and tied it up into a knot.Also known as a Red Shackle, it was an extremely effective move to encase supernatural beings.It was a bizarre sight for Wallace Yoke and Jim Sabinsky, as the little demon, as tall as a four-year-old kid, shrunk rapidly and vanished into a tiny red knot. Alex then fastened the knot on his belt.Both the mentor and his mentee were shocked.“You… captured the… the demon?” Jim stammered and looked at Alex in awe.Alex nodded. “I will deal with it later.”In actual fact, he wanted to look for the little demon’s owner after nightfall.Wallace suddenly looked at Alex with a twinkle in his eyes and eagerly asked, “Mr. Rockefeller, are you p
Alex Rockefeller shook his head and smiled. “Doctor Yoke, these are nothing but obsolete facts now. I met an expert from Switzerland yesterday claiming that our traditional medicine is a joke and cannot be compared to the Korean art of healing.”“Lies! Lies! They derived their knowledge from our expertise. How dare they claim to be the better of the two?” Wallace York exclaimed in anger.Jim Sabinsky chimed in, “They actually applied for heritage status too and claimed that our knowledge originated from them.”“Damn! What a load of nonsense!” Riled up, Wallace was about to give Jim the boot.It was a shocking sight to see Wallace, an elderly man, cursing and swearing in a sudden outburst.“It has been centuries since we saw the existence of Dazzle’s apostles. Now that you are here, we need everyone to know of the arrival of one of Dazzle’s apostles!” Wallace continued, “And as a follower of the Witch Doctor, I pay my respects to the Immortal Doctor.”And he lowered his body to kn
Too engrossed with the sight, Alex Rockefeller did not realize that others had arrived.He looked down and saw three women, all dressed in black.Their expressions were definitely filled with anger as they glared at him.More importantly, these women were fighters, with the strongest one of Advanced-Royal rank.The other two were of Intermediate-Royal rank, at the very least.“Oh my! I wonder why Zendaya needed such powerful people to be her bodyguards?”Just as a confused Alex tried to make sense of the situation, Zendaya, who overheard the commotion, leaped from her lying position on the yoga mat. She looked around and saw Alex right outside her window.She was shocked, but Alex quickly discovered that she had indeed something to do with the little demon.‘Weird. What could’ve happened between a popular celebrity like her and an old lady?’Seeing Alex’s inaction and his continuous staring into the window, the women below became enraged. The Advanced-Royal ranked one stomped
Even though the paparazzi apologized publicly after that, the damage had been done. Zendaya had to deal with the repercussions of negative press and a dwindling reputation.The female bodyguard snickered. “Every paparazzi we caught said the same thing. Do you think we will believe you? If you do not cooperate on a count of three, do not blame us for what will come.”“One…“Two…”Alex Rockefeller shook his head.“Three! Get him!”Another bodyguard jammed the baton onto Alex’s arm. This wasn’t the first time it happened; Zendaya’s immense fame had attracted quite a few unscrupulous characters.Yet, it was the same outcome. One taste of the taser was all that was needed to teach these stalkers a lesson they would never forget.A moment passed, and instantly she felt something was amiss; Alex seemed not to be affected by the taser.She tried a few more times, but nothing changed.“This can’t be, I charged it just this morning!” she muttered under her breath.“Why don’t you find
The women screamed in horror.A refined maiden, Zendaya never had any intimate interactions with the opposite sex. Even her hands were off-limits to pretty much most people.Alex Rockefeller’s actions were horrendous, to say the least.If the fans knew about it, she was done for.Zendaya was terrified. She lay on the ground frozen as she watched Alex’s hand reach forward to touch her body.Whoosh!Alex grabbed onto a jade necklace and yanked it free from her neck.‘Hold on. He only wanted the necklace?’Zendaya could not wrap her head around Alex’s actions. He kept staring at the jade necklace without any further action. She was puzzled but dared say nothing in case she provoked him again.“Who would’ve thought that the famous Zendaya, a professional songstress, would excel equally well in raising demons?” Alex quickly shoved the necklace into his pocket.“What happened between you and Carter’s old lady?” he asked.Zendaya instantly fumed upon Alex’s question. “You came for
It turned out the little demon had nothing to do with the jade necklace.It was the son of a construction worker. A few years ago, he came here with his mother to visit his father, who was working on the construction of Golden Manor. Unfortunately, he lost his life when he fell into a well.His soul had remained here ever since.Some time ago, the soul stumbled upon Zack Carter and had become attracted to a malicious aura emanating from his body. With the bracelet, the little demon could not get too close to Zack, so instead, it went to the old lady.“It was an accident!”Alex finally cleared up the misunderstanding. He looked at Zendaya apologetically.She stood up, frowning.“I am so sorry, Miss Zendaya. It was all a misunderstanding. You did nothing to Mrs. Carter, and oh, I am returning your necklace too.” Alex handed the jade necklace over to Zendaya.“Is that all?” Autumn was furious since she had received a few blows from Alex just moments ago. “Miss Zendaya twisted her
“Oh my god!” Alex Rockefeller found himself boiling in rage. He had never heard of something so absurd and preposterous happening in his life.Hailey Lawson shrieked before she could even finish her sentence.Zack Carter’s voice came over the line. “Heh. You feeling alright, Hailey? Come here, come to daddy…And then, the phone call abruptly ended.‘Old b*stard!’Knowing Hailey was in grave danger, Alex wasted not a second more. He slammed his foot on the throttle and sped toward the Carter residence in his car.The drug’s in Hailey’s body started taking effect. Her body warmed up, and she started losing consciousness.She got into the car and attempted to flee, but under her drugged consciousness, she found it extremely difficult even to start the car. Moments later, she was yanked out by Zack.“No, no! Stop it! I am Charles’s wife! You can’t do this!“I beg you… please!”Zack’s bloodshot eyes greedily skewered themselves into Hailey. He had also become unusually strong.
