Alex Rockefeller was immediately reminded of the night where they found each other sleeping together on the same bed, drunk. But then again, a glass of wine shouldn’t be of any harm.“What do you plan to do? Call the police on Zack Carter?” asked Alex.“The police?” Hailey Lawson took a big gulp of wine and shook her head. “If this goes public, I will be blamed instead. He is nothing but an old pervert, insignificant and negligible.”Alex thought about it and nodded.Unfortunately, a woman was in a more disadvantageous position in such matters. Certain keyboard warriors with questionable morals might even fault Hailey, that she had actually seduced her father-in-law.“Relax. I know exactly what to do!”Knowing that Hailey had her own plans, Alex probed no further into the topic.He finished the wine and stood up. “Well then, see you!”“Wait a minute! Why don’t you stay?” She slumped provocatively onto the couch.Whack!Alex gave her thigh a cheeky, hard slap.“Nice joke you g
Alex lifted his head and looked toward Hailey’s room. His eyes were blood-red, just like Zack Carter from before.At this very moment, it was as if he could see exactly what Hailey was doing in her room and even feel her emotions. An expression of primitive carnal desire soon surfaced on his face.Meanwhile, Hailey, who was still in her room, had no idea that such grave danger was approaching from downstairs.Alex smirked, he was ready to jump up to the second floor and barge into Hailey’s room, just so he could spend the night with her. Just then, a hidden weapon violently pierced through air of the silent night, flying toward Alex’s chest.Unguarded, Alex, whose mind was solely focused on Hailey, was instantly pierced by the hidden weapon: it was a ninja star.However, the ninja star only penetrated his skin for less than half an inch. The Chi stimulated within his body blocked the attack from going any further.This sudden attack had sobered Alex a little.He turned around im
Alex was about to take action, yet he changed his mind after hearing the ninja’s words.He had no idea what they were here for. Furthermore, his mother had been reticent in sparing him any details, she seemed terrified as if she were to open Pandora's box, bringing him chaos and misfortune.Even so, Alex wanted to learn the whole truth even more.He wanted to at least figure out what these ninjas were looking for.“Yes, didn’t you say that you wanted to take down Rockefeller Group? We can be of help. You wouldn’t even need three months, one month is more than enough to achieve that. When the time comes, Rockefeller Group will be all yours,” The leader continued.“You guys aren’t sincere at all. Why are you still wearing masks and hiding yourself when you’re here for a trade? You even tried to ambush me just a while ago.”“Haha, it was just a small test.”From the corner of Alex’s eyes, he could tell that Hailey, who had noticed the ruckus coming from downstairs, walked toward he
“Ninjas again?”“Holy sh*t, all of them committed suicide too!” Anna was quick to arrive at the scene. It only took her less than half an hour to show up in front of Alex.After taking a glance at the five ninjas’ corpses, she knew that they had committed suicide.“What grudge do the Japanese ninjas have against you?” Anna was puzzled as it was an abnormal phenomenon for the five ninjas to commit suicide simultaneously. This could only be explained if it involved some extremely hidden secrets or some sort of powerful figures.Alex sighed. “I’d like to know that too.”A brute woman like Anna obviously liked using brawns instead of brains. She didn’t even put much thought into it as she knew that she couldn’t understand the incident either, so she just ordered her men to clean up the corpses.She then turned to Alex and said, “By the way, I’d like you to help me with something.”Alex froze. “Is it related to a mission from Divine Constabulary?”Anna replied, “Nope, but it’s qui
“Bye bye, mister!”“Goodbye, don’t be so playful in your next life!”Witch doctors were not only able to cure spirits, they were capable of exorcising evil spirits as well.Alex waved gently, yet a sudden gush of sadness welled inside him.‘The child died in vain at such a young age, his parents must have felt way sadder,’ he thought.The night passed by quickly.In the next morning, Alex was in the basement again to concoct a cauldron of Blood Energy Pills. This was the last of his medicinal herbs as well, he could only concoct a cauldron of thirteen pills. He did not have enough materials for further concoctions!Without the help of the divine energy that was given by his ancestor, he could tell that his cultivation speed was decreasing significantly. So, he had to think of a way to improve this.He drove up to Assex Villa at 10:30 a.m. Never did Alex expect that Adrianna and her family still had not left the villa, there were even two cops at the scene.Puzzled, Alex made
‘We were just talking about the two million dollars, yet here you are giving him twenty million dollars at once. Do you really need to leave me with egg on my face?’ Adrianna felt as if her face were swollen due to the slap in the face. However, she just said that she would lick Alex’s shoes if he really had two million dollars.More importantly, her eyes were fixated on the bank card, brimming with jealousy and vain. After all, that was twenty million dollars. Based on their economic condition, their family would never be able to earn such a large sum of money in their lifetime. Those were astronomical figures to them.However, Claire was even more crushed.Alex had given her the twenty-million-dollar check back then, yet due to immense excitement, she had made a crease on the check when she placed it under her pillow before sleeping. In the end, she even yelled at him and accused him for giving her a fake check.‘It was real all along.’Dorothy, on the other hand, had already se
Adrianna kept slapping herself as she apologized.Felix huffed coldly. “You shouldn’t apologize to me, but to Mr. Rockefeller. I think I overheard you just said you would lick his shoe if he were to have two million dollars, right?”‘What?’Adrianna was shocked. Her mouth was agape, yet no words could come out.She could kneel before Felix without hesitation because of his title as the young heir of Pegasus International. In her eyes, he was a powerful figure who could dictate her family’s fate with just one decision.However, Alex was just a mere loser in her eyes, who should be crushed under her feet. How could she bring herself to such humiliation by licking his shoe in exchange?She just couldn’t accept this!Just like anybody else, one could accept an irrelevant person who acted all high and mighty toward them. Yet they could never accept a relative whom they deemed trash and shunned away for the longest time, to suddenly become a being that many fell over each other to fla
Even so, Alex still wanted to persuade her.However, Dorothy pulled him back and said, “Just quit it, you can’t convince her at all. You have no idea that my sister is a hardcore fan of Zendaya. She has Zendaya’s posters plastered all over her walls, and she even has every album of hers.”“Last time, she even travelled specifically to Virginia just so she could watch her concert. Now that her concert will be held in California, how could she miss this one?”“If you refuse to let her go, she would even fight you with all her might.”Alex stared at Beatrice with a puzzled look as he said, “Is Zendaya really that great? She’s just a woman. In terms of appearance, it seems your sister is way prettier than her anyway.”Dorothy felt happy secretly. “Really? Do you really think that I’m prettier than Zendaya?”Alex was certain. “Yeah, there’s no doubt about it. Zendaya ain’t sh*t, she can’t even be compared to your pinky.”Beatrice looked like she was about to vomit. “You’re so disgust
