Similar incidents were happening throughout Rockefeller Manor.Carol, who was taking a nice bath, decided to come out of the bathtub as soon as the lights went out. However, she heard light footsteps in the darkness.Then, she felt a stinging pain in the back of her head and lost consciousness.Noah and Mariah were knocked out when they were having an intimate moment.All the maids and caretakers lost consciousness without realizing it as well.“Why would the power go out?”“Could someone be… behind this?” John started panicking.He was genuinely terrified of Alex.This was why he wanted the operation to go smoothly and kill them off right there and then. If they weren’t able to succeed, this would potentially expose him as the mastermind. He wouldn’t be able to rest if that happened.However, in just seconds, the power came back.“Maybe the breaker tripped!” Cooper smiled. “Don’t worry, Mr. Rockefeller. It’ll be fine, really. This operation is sure to succeed! Assassins us
“What? This…” Cooper and John’s face went pale as soon as they recognized the corpses.They were all John’s private bodyguards.He was worried that someone might try to assassinate him, so he had hired these skilled fighters with large sums of money. Some were underground fighters; some had learned ancient martial arts; while others had been in the military. All of them could fight off large groups of people alone.Despite this,they were now dead, killed by this young girl as if she was just butchering livestock.She was none other than Holly Yates.She stood at the door with a cheeky smile, arms folded behind her back. She looked as if she wouldn’t hurt a fly, but the two saw her as a wolf in sheep’s clothing.“John, I’ve already given you a second chance. I told you that I’d defeat you in business, and I promised that I wouldn’t use any other methods to get my way.” Brittany said. “Yet here you are, not appreciating the chance I gave you and choosing to hire assassins to kill
The dagger penetrated Cooper’s lower back. But he couldn’t care less about the pain as he sped up and dashed towards the left window, hoping to escape.To his demise, Waltz was much faster than him. She had reached Mystic Rank after all.As soon as Cooper reached the window, Waltz grabbed him by his neck from behind and dragged him back in. However, Waltz was still getting used to her newfound strength. She unintentionally broke Cooper’s neck and spine.With a loud thud, Cooper fell to the ground harshly, unable to move a muscle anymore.As he hadn’t died yet, he was flooded with sheer terror.He screamed and shouted. “No! I don’t want to die! I don't want to die…”Even so, he felt his vision getting darker by the second. This continued until he was nothing more but an empty husk.After witnessing how Cooper died, along with the large pile of corpses around him, John was so scared that he felt as if he was going to wet his pants.He just thought that he was just a rich man spen
John just wanted to survive.He had thought this through. Even though his son had died, he could always give birth to another one.Even if Olivia couldn’t bear another child, he could find another woman who would do so.Moreover, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to get another seven or eight sons. ‘I’m rich, what problem is there?’He immediately said, “It’s a secret about your father’s identity. Do you want to know that? Your father may be dead, but wouldn’t you want to know anything about your bloodline? Your ancestors? Do you not want to find your actual grandparents?”Both Alex and Brittany really wanted to.“Speak.”John shook his head. “Brittany, I’ve thought this through. If you let me go this time, I won’t cause you any trouble from now on. Who cares if Spark died? He asked for it. But you have to let me live after I tell you William’s secret. No more grudges or anything like that, alright?”Brittany looked towards Alex, letting him decide.Alex nodded. “Sure, we’ll
John was relieved. “Thank god you’re willing to keep your promise.”However, Alex spoke up again. “But you hired assassins to capture my mom and to kill my family. What’s worse was that you had such disgusting fantasies towards my mother. Letting you live wouldn’t sit right with me.”John panicked. “Wh-What do you mean?”Alex said, “I’ll let you live and witness the destruction of Rockefeller Group! Back then, both you and your father treated us like idiots, tricking and using my father as a tool to help you earn money… We’ll just take your freedom away to atone for your sins.”“Are… are you going to imprison me and lock me up?”“That’s right, but I’m not going to imprison you physically. I’m imprisoning your soul.”“Huh? Soul?”John wanted to laugh. ‘Are you kidding me?’Just then, Alex reached his arm out with his fingers spread, each surrounded by lightning.John was appalled upon seeing this.‘He can form lightning in his hands? Is he even human at this point?’He turned
“Can I sleep with you tonight?” Waltz’s words made Alex shudder.Just then, he remembered that his wife, Dorothy, was supposed to have just come out of the shower, waiting for him to move to the third base in their relationship. However, he had dashed out of the room and flaked her. He had no idea how she was taking this.He initially wanted to rush back to Apollo Hotel, but then remembered how he looked like right now.He looked as if he had aged another thirty years. He could even act as Dorothy’s father..If she saw how he looked now, she probably wouldn’t believe that he was Alex, let alone get back down to business.He let out a deep sigh.Waltz pouted. “Why are you sighing? Just say if you want to! Why are you such a chicken? I didn’t even intend to tell Dorothy. Are you going to go back on your words? How am I going to trust you anymore?”Alex felt awkward. “Waltz, I can’t even if I wanted to!”“What does that mean? Oh no, have you become infertile? Is that an after-ef
Azure had brought along his men from Thousand Miles Conglomerate and cleaned up all the corpses in Rockefeller Manor.An hour after their departure, Carol and the others regained consciousness.In just a few minutes, the whole family had gathered at the living room.“What happened just now?”“I don’t know!”“The power suddenly went out. Then my head hurt and I lost consciousness. I don’t know what happened after that.”“Me too! Me too!”“Well that’s weird. Were we robbed?”Just then, Natalie rushed out of her room as well.After waking up, she immediately turned on her laptop and started another stream. Her fans informed her that a masked person knocked her out and logged off from the stream. With this, she was able to remember that she encountered a person wearing a devil mask with the figure of a woman.She immediately shouted for her family as soon as she got to the living room. “A masked person came into my room and knocked me out!”Mariah replied, “What? So it was a r
‘Holy sh*t!’Alex was so shocked that he felt as if his brain was about to explode and his scalp went numb.If he wasn’t mistaken, this would be the ashes of a pig.For the past six months, he had been crying in front of his father’s grave when he had nowhere else to express his sadness.He had been here at least six times.‘So I have been talking to a damn pig? What the hell?‘But the real question is, why was a pig’s ashes placed into the urn?‘Where did my father’s ashes go?“Were they swapped?‘Could it be that… there weren’t any ashes in the first place?’Alex was surprised by his own assumptions.‘Is my father… not dead?’He then shook this thought off. Last October, he had seen his father’s corpse when he rushed to the hospital from his wedding on the day of the car crash. He was the one who sent his body to the incinerator.If he didn’t die from that, he must surely be a god.However, there was only one other possibility to this. When William was cremated, he di
