Alex had just left Ganoderma, walking at a slow pace.He thought, ‘Mom will be discharged in two days, but we lost our property. Plus, I was kicked out by Claire, so we won’t have a place to stay. Buying a property is my priority now.’But he also knew that his father had hidden Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s existence from his mother. He had heard this from Lex himself. ‘Should I tell her?’ He thought.He wouldn’t be able to use any of his funds if he didn’t give her a proper explanation.He decided to keep it a secret for now.Thousand Miles Conglomerate was involved with underworld work, so most people would view them as mafias or thugs. This could be the reason his father had hidden the conglomerate from his mother.It wouldn’t be wise to reveal the truth to her right now.‘Then… I’ll just get a small apartment. I’ll tell her the money came from my savings.’It was decided.Just as Alex was about to call a cab to go back to the hospital, Cheryl yelled out to him from behi
Alex’s expression turned colder. “Who sent you?”Scarface scoffed. “Do you really want to know? Kneel down and slap yourself then. If you give me a good show, I might consider telling you.”Alex nodded. “How about this? You kneel down and slap yourself a hundred times. Then, I might consider letting you off easy.”“What?” The thugs were confused as they thought they had heard wrong.Before arriving, they heard that this guy was a good for nothing bloke. He wasn’t even allowed to be intimate with his own wife and he had to slave away for his mother-in-law.How could someone as worthless as him dare to say such words to them?Was he out of his mind?“You’ve got some guts, I’d give you that you brat. Looks like you’re going to have to say goodbye to your lower half and your arms!” Scarface smirked cockily, raising the bat above his head, about to smash Alex’s legs.There was a loud thud followed by cracking.The wooden bat smashed right into Alex’s shin and into two halves from t
During the Assexes’ annual celebration, Spark was incredibly shocked that Lord Lex Gunther from Thousand Miles Conglomerate had stood up for Alex. He couldn’t understand why Lord Lex would ever help a useless piece of shit like Alex.If Lex ever wanted to beat up his grandfather, Bill Rockefeller, all Spark would be able to do was watch. He wouldn’t ever dare to show any signs of vengeance. That would mean that he wouldn’t be able to seek revenge on Alex for breaking his arm.Besides, Rockefeller Group was still worried about Thousand Miles Conglomerate seeking vengeance against them as well.However, he later found out that Lex owed William a favor. Now that he paid back the favor, he no longer owed the Rockefellers anything. Moreover, Alex had tried calling Lex once, yet he ended up being yelled at and threatened.Spark had nothing to fear then!So, he immediately hired some people to deal with Alex.Ring ring ring...At that moment, a young model was massaging Spark in a cl
The punch was filled with a strong flow of Chi. It would damage Spark’s reproductive organs over time and in just a month, he would lose his ability to engage in sexual intercourse completely.Alex left the rundown house and met up with Cheryl, who was waiting in the restaurant. They were going to have lunch together.Before dealing with Spark, Alex had asked Cheryl to order some food and wait for him.As he watched Alex walk away, Spark chided Scarface, “F*ck! Scarface, you scammer! I agreed to pay you so much money, and you’re trying to scam me? Didn’t you say you were the best fighter in Teal Street? How are you the best if you can’t even deal with a mere boy toy?”With a fractured shin, Scarface was just as angry. “How dare you f*cking scold me? You said he was a weakling! But he was strong and his movements were swift too. He could tear you into pieces with one arm! You know what? I, Scarface, wouldn’t just leave it this way. My big sister will be back in two days. We’ll deal
“Papa, why did they call Uncle Alex useless? He isn’t!” The little girl, Zoey Carter, pouted angrily.She was almost six years old so she was growing to be more thoughtful.She was able to escape death that afternoon all thanks to Alex. When she was still in her spirit state, all she felt was loneliness and coldness. Alex was like a campfire in the winter, keeping her warm, which was why it left a strong impression on her.Charles replied, “They don’t know what they’re saying.”Hailey added, “Let’s help him out in some way, rather than babble on about those two. Let’s see, how do we find him… I heard after William’s accident, his wife became vegetative, she’s been in the hospital ever since.”Charles said, “Let’s go to the main city to find Cheryl.”Just then, Alex and Cheryl went back to the hospital.Alex was going to help his mother discharge from the hospital. However, Cheryl felt like Brittany should stay for another few days just in case.Alex smiled, “There’s no need for
Hailey was gorgeous and curvy; she looked like a beautiful painting.Alex immediately closed his eyes, forcing himself to not look or think about it. He tried remembering Claire’s twisted face as she yelled at him. This helped him calm himself down from the impure thoughts he had just a while ago.Within a minute, all seven acupuncture points had been pressed onThe electric Chi needle only required seven seconds to take effect.After seven seconds, Alex asked, “Okay, I’m done Hailey. How do you feel?”Hailey rubbed her temples and exclaimed, “Oh my god, my head doesn’t hurt anymore! My temples used to hurt so badly before. Oh kiddo, you’re absolutely amazing! If I fall ill again someday, I’ll come to you!”While talking, Hailey swayed her body side to side, causing her chest to jiggle slightly as well.Huh, in just a few minutes, Alex went from being called Dr. Rockefeller to Alex, and now kiddo.Their relationship seemed to be getting more casual with each change in nickname.
Nicholas ran into Brittany’s ward and said, “Madame Brittany, you’re really awake! What a relief…”“Oh it’s you, Nicholas!”They made small talk, catching up with each other.Alex said, “You came here at just the right time. I’m going to help my mom get discharged from the hospital. Would you please help me get the necessary paperwork?”Nicholas pulled him aside. “Alex, when Madame Brittany is discharged, where would you guys go? Are you going to bring her to the Asse mansion?”Nicholas knew exactly how cruel the Assexes had been to Alex.Alex pondered and replied, “We might stay in a hotel first. I’ll buy a proper place later.”Nicholas’s eyes widened, “You have the money to buy one?”Alex fake coughed and lied, “My mom does!”With this explanation, Nicholas bought his lie completely.After all, Brittany used to be the CEO of Rockefeller Group, and everyone knew her as a strong and independent woman. Even if she were to be stingy with her wealth, her pocket change would stil
Merida cackled and pinched Nicholas’s ear. “Listen to your brother-in-law, you naive child. What kind of people are you even befriending now? Do you know how expensive the villas are in Maple Villa? Your brother-in-law wouldn’t even be able to afford one in a million years!”“Trying to trick us with a fake keycard? You are absolutely ridiculous!”Alex was speechless. He didn’t want his mother to face any insults. She had only just been discharged from the hospital. He turned to Nicholas. “Nicholas, you can talk it out with your family. We’ll be off.”Nicholas asked, “Off to where?”Merida smirked and joked, “Where? They’re definitely going to Maple Villa and stay in some grand villa of course! Why would they stay in such a rundown place, right? Will they even get used to such poverty?”Sean laughed at them too, treating them like clowns in a circus.Alex replied, “My keycard is real. Mr. Carter gave it to me just a while ago. Nicholas, it’s alright, I know how much you care about
