Alex had seen it several times before, but looking at the words after almost a year gave him a completely new feeling. It was as though these carved words emitted a faint, pure, and orthodox energy.Alex couldn’t help but reach out with his Chi to have a feel of it.The very next moment, he almost lost his grip on the necklace. An extremely familiar echo emanated from the pearl, resonating with him.‘Father’s aura!’‘This is definitely Father’s aura. What in the world is going on?’The stunned Alex fixed his gaze on the pearl, his focus entirely trained on the words. A strand of mental power unconsciously shot into it, and in an instant, what he saw completely transformed; the words broke apart and dispersed into countless blood-red runic scriptures. He couldn’t see it clearly, and he couldn’t recognize it either.But what he could be sure of was that these runic scriptures were formed with his father’s blood.He could feel it.This discovery shocked Alex to the core.‘No, n
Chapter 473
When Benny got the news that Captain Tony had brought his people, Claire, and everyone else to the Assex residence to arrest Joanne, Emma, and the rest, he rushed back.It was fortunate that he wasn’t far from the house when he received the call, or it would have been too late.When Joanne saw her eldest son, she looked as if she was witnessing the arrival of her savior. She started shouting in a hoarse voice, “Ben, hurry, come save me! I can’t be arrested!”All the tears from the old lady’s eyes started to flow down.She was already of such advanced age. If she were to go to jail, it would bring immense shame to her ancestors. If this were the case, how would they establish a foothold in California?Benny, also acquainted with Tony, hurriedly said, “Captain Tony, my mother is already very old. How could she have gone around to steal things? All these are thanks to my brother and my niece. If you want to arrest someone, then arrest them instead and let my mother go! If anything

An hour later, Joanne had finally taken a bath and had changed into a fresh set of clothes, finally putting her air back on as per usual.“Benny, what should we do now? Can we get Emma and Anderson released?” she asked her son.Benny’s face was gloomy. “This Tony, it used to be easy to talk to him. I don’t know what happened this time, but he carried a tough and strict attitude and hadn’t in him a single degree of tolerance. I sent over a team of lawyers, but it was useless.”He was annoyed too. “Just now, eight security guards from the company got arrested, and it caused a huge scene. It so happened that some of the customers witnessed it, and it caused an impact on them.”“Claire is sticking to her statement that the glassy emerald worth hundreds of millions has been stolen.“The main point here is that idiot Emma actually stole that pearl necklace. It’s solid evidence that can’t be gotten rid of. Surveillance cameras even recorded it, so if Alex and the others really don’t want

Swoosh!Claire, clad in a bikini, dived into the pool like a mermaid, her jade-white legs alternately kicking the water. It was exceptionally accurate. Alex stood by the door, watching her for half a minute with an indifferent look on his face. When it was confirmed she wasn’t going to leave the water any time soon, he quietly retreated.In a flash, he entered the room that Claire had chosen. On the spacious Simmons mattress were some of Clare’s clothes, thrown randomly on it.His sharp eyes glanced around lightning fast, searching for the pearl necklace. He finally found it under a pair of black undergarments.Naturally, he was looking for the necklace to study the secrets the pale, golden pearl held.If those complicated blood-runic scriptures had indeed been laid down by William, then it could be inferred that his father was by no means the ordinary person he had portrayed himself to be, and a mere car accident wouldn’t have been enough to kill him.Then, the culprit r

Alex gave his mother, Brittany a call.After some trivial chats about daily lives, Alex asked, “Mom, do you still remember the pearl necklace that Dad gave me as a greeting gift when I went to Assex Villa to meet Dorothy’s mother for the first time?”Brittany said, “Of course I do. Your father also strung a precious golden pearl in it. The whole necklace is worth at least eight million dollars.”Having said that, she got angry. “Our family has treated your mother-in-law so well, but I couldn’t believe that she’s such a snob! Son, if you’re being mistreated at Assex Villa, then you should really, just divorce! It’s better to just get the pain over with, rather than prolong the agony!”“Don’t worry, Mom. She’s much better now after that incident… Besides, you think she could really do anything to me with my capabilities? If she were to really irritate me, I’ll just give her a big tight slap.”“Tsk, who would believe you!”“Why not? I had beaten her up last time, and Dorothy didn’t

Alex was stunned.From the way Zendaya and himself had met eyes earlier, it was clear that she had been waiting for him. She couldn’t help frowning subtly at the appearance of the young man, but she still put on a smile and said, “Don’t misunderstand, Alan. This is my friend.”The young man named Alan pursed his lips with a disdainful glint in his eyes. He said, “Zendaya, today is an important time for us to duet our performance. Some unimportant individuals shouldn’t just come over and bother you, right? Get him to leave first!”Alan was almost 5.74 feet tall, and his appearance was quite charming and handsome.Alex could tell that Alan had an unusual sort of feelings toward Zendaya, given how different his gaze was when he looked at her. There was nothing wrong with handsome men who loved beautiful women.The main point here was that Alex was over 5.9 feet tall, his facial features and skin quality were far superior than his. Especially, Alex had a peculiar temperament on hi

Bunty was in charge of Zendaya’s endorsement contracts. Since she said so, even Zendaya was helpless.She pulled Alex aside and said, “Alex, I’ll discuss this with Bunty after this.”Alex shook his head. “Forget about it, it’s fine. Since you’re in a tight spot, I can find another artist to try it out… Since you’re busy, I’ll take my leave first. I won’t disturb you guys' preparation for the concert.”“Wait!”Zendaya held him back again.Alan was very upset with the fact that she had held Alex twice now, and he almost let a string of curses slip out.When did Zendaya ever take the initiative to pull on a man before?Besides, this man was already married.“Since you’ve already come, Alex, why don’t you just sit and have a cup of tea while listening to my new song? You can also help me check if there’s anything wrong.”Alan finally couldn’t hold himself back. “Does he even understand music?”“My songs are made for my fans. Music is understood by everyone, so naturally he could

Alex’s calm reply made Alan frown wildly. The failures of over a dozen times had already made him very irritable. And, now this random guy actually stood up to challenge his piano skills? How unfathomable!Slam!After pressing both his hands hard on the keys of the valuable piano, he stood up violently. “Fine, come on then. I want to see if you can really play piano!”Bunty instantly frowned. “Mr. Rockefeller, can you not stir up trouble? Alan is the most distinguished piano master in Hong Kong. If he can’t even play it, others would definitely not be able to do so.” Alex walked over. “Either way, he isn’t in good shape right now. He should just take a break and have a change of pace to change his mood.”Zendaya’s eyes moved lightly, with a bright smile on her face. “You can also play piano, Alex?”Alex smiled and said, “When I was young, my mother forced me to learn piano until I was tenth grade. I haven’t touched it for many years now, so I might be rusty. I’ll try it first!
