Alex Rockefeller took his phone out, clicked on an audio file and started speaking. “Coincidentally, I recorded our conversation earlier. For those interested, let’s listen to it together!”As soon as the audio file started playing, Jackie Luden’s face turned pale.When Senna Summers heard Jackie asking Hailey Lawson to be with him for seven days, her eyes became filled with rage. “Jackie Lude, you jerk! How could you do this to me?”Although one of Senna’s legs was broken, she was a martial artist.She hopped up with a single leg and started hitting Jackie, nearly killing him with her blows.In the end, many bones in Jackie’s arms and ribs were broken. Most importantly, his penis had been snapped off too. Senna was truly a violent woman.Alex felt indifferent when he heard Jackie crying in pain. Eventually, Hailey tugged at Alex’s shirt. “If she continues to hit him, he’s going to die,” she said.Alex finally spoke. “Alright, you two can fight outside. You’re too annoying.”“I

After leaving the villa, Alex Rockefeller and Hailey Lawson immediately returned to Maple Villa.They wanted to deliver the products Maya Howards had brought to Belle Blossom.Hailey was very confident in Alex’s medical knowledge. When she found out that one of the anti-aging products was developed by Alex, she even wanted to personally experiment with it.“Little brother, you probably don’t know this, but one of the most successful products from Arles Cosmetics is their anti-wrinkling face mask. If your anti-aging product can achieve even 70% of the effectiveness of Arles Cosmetics’ product, we won’t need to maintain the contract with them,” Hailey said.Alex lost control and started laughing. “Hailey, have you misunderstood my medical knowledge? My mother-in-law has tried the anti-wrinkling face mask from Arles Cosmetics. I can guarantee that our product, which is called Lush Anti-Aging, is twice as effective as theirs. In fact, ours even has whitening and moisturizing effects.”

“Give me a second,” Maya Howards quickly said.Eventually, Alex Rockefeller ended up waiting for her for half an hour.When Maya reappeared, her looks had completely changed. Wearing a white, strapless T-shirt, coupled with a pair of partially-torn, shin-length jeans, as well as a pair of high heels, she emanated youthful energy. As charming as she looked, the way she dressed made her look several years younger than she was. It was as if she was back in college again.Alex looked straight at her, and he couldn’t help but think about the first time he set his eyes on her.“Hey, what are you staring at? Let’s go!”Maya took him by the arm and started walking out of the villa.In the past, Maya was shy and didn’t dare hold his hand with her own initiative. But after seeing Alex having an affair with Waltz Fleur, she suddenly became much bolder.“I want to have a buffet!” Maya exclaimed.Within half an hour, the two of them arrived at a rather well-known buffet restaurant.Meanwhi

Alex Rockefeller’s gaze turned cold when he saw Roger Graham.This man was Louis Graham, Paradise Corp’s president’s son.Alex had also met Louis when he attended the Rockefeller family’s funeral service. Louis received a lot of help from William Rockefeller in the past, but he had later jumped ship to work for John Rockefeller.In other words, like father, like son.Roger used to follow Alex around during their time in college. Afterward, when things went south in the Rockefeller family, and Alex turned from a rich, upper-class child into a man who depended on women for survival, Louis immediately changed his attitude. Louis started calling Spark Rockefeller his buddy. On many occasions, Louis kept throwing Alex under the bus and made sarcastic remarks about Alex behind his back.Louis and his entire family were a bunch of traitors.Alex glanced at Maya Howards. He found it odd that she would actually tolerate this fellow sitting at their table.In the end, Maya turned to look

How could Alex Rockefeller not know what’s going on? It had to be Maya Howards, who had taken off her high heels, touching his shin with her toes.Alex turned to look at Maya with a confused expression on his face.Maya made a hooking motion with her finger.Alex leaned in, and Maya started whispering into his ear with a smile on her face.Roger watched this happening with intense jealousy. He wished he could kill Alex and approach Maya on his own.He had developed feelings for Maya ever since they were still studying but never had the chance to get close to her. When they met again after several years, Maya had become even prettier, gentler, and more enticing. Roger felt very tempted.“Did you say, Paradise Corp? If Paradise Corp went away, would you stop being so arrogant and be less annoying? As your previous boss, I think I bear the responsibility of leading you down the right path,” Alex said.As soon as Alex said that, Roger started laughing loudly. “Alex, who do you think

“Alex, boss, I’m begging you. Please spare me. Please spare Paradise Corp! I’m begging you!” Roger Graham was truly scared now.Before Paradise Corp became successful, the Graham family were a bunch of normal citizens living in a poverty-stricken area. The entire family lived in a tiny, run-down house of around fifty square meters.Whenever it rained cats and dogs outside, the rain would seep in through the roof.Come wintertime, and they would all be shivering from the cold.Roger absolutely did not wish to return to such living conditions again. If that were to be the case, he’d rather jump off the building from the eighteenth floor.Shayna Morrison, who stood nearby, was thoroughly shocked.She quickly went over to help Roger get up. “Mr. Graham, what are you doing? Isn’t he just some guy who depends on women for a living? Why are you even begging him on your knees? Can he even threaten Paradise Corp? People would die laughing,” she said.Thump!Roger grabbed hold of Shayna

“It’s still there… It could be some type of sauce. It’s not coming off. You’ll need a wet towel. Here, let me help you,” Maya Howards said.She looked around in her purse but found no wet towels.“I’ll get it washed in the toilet,” said Alex Rockefeller.“The public toilet is some ways from here. We’ll have to head back to the starting point. I have an idea,” Maya said.“What is it?” Alex asked.The next second, Maya circled her arms around his neck and pressed her red lips against his.Alex was at a loss for words. He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his mind had gone completely blank. He unconsciously placed his hands on her waist. Meanwhile, Maya, feeling as if she was being encouraged, became even more emotionally involved.Around them were many pedestrians, all staring at this handsome couple.Although people were used to seeing couples holding and kissing each other in public, such occurrences usually took place very briefly. A kiss never lasted longer than

Maya Howards charged into the room when she heard Alex Rockefeller’s voice.She was equally shocked by what she saw.Her mouth and eyes were wide open, and she had a look of disbelief on her face.All she could see was that Alex’s room was full of vibrant, green leaves and vines, even on his bed. It looked like a scene from The Wizard of Oz.“This… What happened? Why are there so many vines?”“I don’t know either. It looks like my Devil’s ivy.”Alex pushed aside the crisscrossing vines in front of him and walked further into the room. Indeed, he eventually saw that these vines all came from a pot on the balcony. The problem was that the pot of Devil’s ivy still looked very normal last night… In fact, it also seemed normal this morning. Surprisingly, this strange occurrence only happened after half a day passed.Maya followed behind and grabbed Alex’s arm. “Could the Devil’s ivy have become a spirit?” she asked.Alex was speechless for a while.If the Devil’s ivy could become a
