Leo Adams’ cold gaze remained on Alex. “Young man, you have no idea who you’re talking about. Do you know what will happen to you if you disrespect Mr. Accardo?”Everyone was getting angry.What kind of restaurant manager was this? What was he playing at?Was he pandering to someone else?“Mr. Adams, we’re customers who are here to eat in your restaurant. Don’t you think a request like this is too much?” Zendaya asked coldly.Leo chuckled. “Miss Zendaya, although you’re a huge celebrity, that’s all you are in the end. To put in a less pleasant way, you’re an entertainer. I’m doing this with good intentions. If you upset Mr. Accardo, your artistic career might end prematurely.”Wham!Just as Leo finished speaking, he was slapped across the face.It was Alex who did it.However, Alex moved so quickly that he was able to sit down right after slapping Leo.Leo, whose face had become swollen on one side, couldn’t even clearly see who slapped him.However, he figured it was probab
When Alex Rockefeller noticed Cheryl Coney’s behavior, he stopped talking and continued eating.Very soon, someone kicked the door open forcefully.Four strong-looking men barged through the door. They were martial artists.However, they had very average levels of cultivation.They started shouting as they entered the room.One of them pointed at Zendaya. “Piece of sh*t. You were offered a chance to get to know Mr. Accardo, and that would’ve been a huge favor for you. But you dared to turn it down. Who do you think you are? Some crappy celebrity, that’s what. To Mr. Accardo, you’re no different from a struggling model,” he said crudely.“Let’s cut the crap. We’ll just grab her and bring her over. Break the guy’s legs and bring the rest of the women over. Looks like there are two more pretty girls. This is going to be fun,” another man added.Zendaya and the other ladies remained silent.Once she knew that Alex was Mask, Cheryl was no longer afraid.Alex spat out a piece of fis
Mr. Kitagawa was in his early thirties—a calm and collected man from Japan who rarely spoke more than a few words.Heath Accardo knew that Mr. Kitagawa was a very strong fighter. Heath’s father, Frank Accardo, had hired him to participate in the SCBA’s fighting competition that would take place in half a month’s time.This meal was Heath’s way of welcoming Mr. Kitagawa. Since Frank wasn’t in California, he asked Heath to represent him instead.It was a great thing that Mr. Kitagawa stepped forward voluntarily.Heath also wanted to see how capable this Japanese fighter his father had mentioned. “This celebrity, Zendaya really does think of herself very highly. Not only did she disrespect Mr. Adams, but she also disrespected me,” Heath stood up and said as he laughed.Leo Adams was also in the room. His face was red and swollen. “Exactly. But Zendaya didn’t really say much. Instead, the guy who was eating with her was far too arrogant. When I mentioned your father’s name, Mr. Accard
Heath Accardo was shocked too, and he wanted to slap Chloe Marionette once again.However, he stopped himself just before he did it.Instead, he kicked her with his foot. “You b*tch. If I get HIV because of you, I’ll kill you and your family.”Chloe was kicked so hard that her face became bruised and swollen while her nose started to bleed profusely.Everyone was so afraid of being infected that they quickly moved away from her.In the end, Chloe ran out of the room crying. Before she left, she glared angrily at Alex Rockefeller.Alex didn’t care at all. He turned to look at Heath.“Are you Mr. Accardo? Frank Accardo’s son? Where is your father?” Alex asked.Heath immediately became enraged. “Who the hell are you? How dare you speak of my father’s name?”“Young man, why haven’t you gotten down on your knees yet? This is Mr. Accardo you’re speaking to,” Leo added excitedly.Just as Leo finished his sentence, a silver light flashed.Right after, Leo cried out loudly before fal
Zendaya and Cheryl Coney found it equally odd. Why did Alex Rockefeller ask Heath Accardo about his father twice?Did something happen between Alex and Frank Accardo?However, Alex shook his head. “I don’t know your father, but your father owes me an explanation. I heard that your father has gone in search of expert fighters. Is he back yet?”Heath was truly shocked to hear this.If Alex even knew about such secretive information, there definitely was more than meets the eyes. Alex could not be the loser Chloe Marionette described him to be. From the way Alex easily broke Mr. Kitagawa’s bones, Heath knew that Alex was a hidden boss-like figure—Alex was definitely not someone he could afford to mess with.Heath was just a guy who put up a tough act. He knew he couldn’t beat Alex. If he tried to fight, he would only be putting his life at risk.Hence, Heath immediately bent his knees and knelt to the ground. “Sir, I’m sorry for being ignorant. I deserve to die.”Alex looked at Hea
“Let the feelings of longing travel through the passage of time,Let the memories of past lives sting the hearts of those who love each other,Surely, you will also embrace each other’s strengths…”The moment the song began, Alex Rockefeller felt a resonance in his mind. An extremely infectious mental power seemed to have traveled from her body to his. In an instant, Alex felt a strange sensation. It was as if he could sense her joy, anger and sadness.Most importantly, his own spiritual power had also been strangely activated right then.For some unknown reason, his spiritual power reached out like a tentacle, craving to get closer to Zendaya’s mental power. At that moment, the scene turned magical.It was as if there was a chemical reaction.When Alex’s spiritual power touched hers, the two suddenly entwined.Zendaya was still singing and seemed to have entered a strange trance as her song became even more infectious.Even she was moved to tears by her own singing. It felt as
Since they were on the phone, Heath did not know what expression had suddenly formed on his father’s face.However, after his father picked up the phone again, he had solemnly warned him that he should not act rashly or try to investigate Alex, let alone find someone to deal with him. They would talk about it after Frank returned.It was then that he knew that this Alex—whom Chloe called a spineless coward—must have some strong backing to the point that even his father, a formidable person, had a hint of fear towards him.“What on earth is going on here, Dad?” Heath was so surprised, but he still couldn’t help asking.“Don’t ask too much. Just pretend that you never saw that person,” Frank said.“Fine!”After hanging up the call, Heath felt a chill on his back.He had initially planned to gather some masters from the Valtameri to bait Alex out and attack him as a group.He believed that they would be able to take down Alex this way.Even if he could fight, could he fight again
“With the female doctor?”“Of course not. It’s with Jack Trent from Thousand Leaves Construction, the one who gave us the contract. I have to maintain a good relationship with him, right? I wonder who I’m doing all of these for, hmm?” he asked, hoping to be given credit for his work.“Then… once you’re done, bring a change of clothes.” “What for?” “What do you think? To sleepover.”“I won’t sleep in the housekeeper’s room!”“Do what you want!”After hanging up, Alex's car almost rammed into the car in front of him.What was that supposed to mean?!Did that mean they could sleep in the same bed?F*ck, it’s not that easy to always see the light at the end of the tunnel! As for the washboard, it was impossible for him to buy one in this day and age…***At 5 o’clock, Alex came to the commendation meeting specially organized by Leanne’s company.In order not to draw attention, he had come alone.Leanne’s company was called Alluring Paradise Clothing, involved in fashion d
