“Mom, Mom. What happened to you?”“D*mn it. What did you do to my mother?”When Benny and Anderson Assex saw their mother had passed out on the floor, they immediately panicked. Quickly, they picked her up. Enraged, Anderson even shoved Granny Blackwood.Benny was horrified, and quickly, he restrained Anderson from going any further.Benny had heard from Madame Joanne that Granny Blackwood was a terrifying person. Her body was supposedly covered in poison, and she could inflict parasitic diseases on anyone without even making a sound.Hence, Benny knew Granny Blackwood must have done something to his mother. He also didn’t dare hit her. There were surveillance cameras everywhere, and people would see that Granny Blackwood didn’t even do anything to Madame Joanne from its footage. There was nothing to accuse her of.Alex Rockefeller frowned a little.He had asked Granny Blackwood to put Madame Joanne in a coma without being obvious about it, not expecting her to act right away an

Alex Rockefeller hugged his wife as if hugging a ball of flame.Without saying another word, he picked Lady Dorothy Assex up.***“Argh!”After the Assex family had left, they quickly sent Madame Joanne to the hospital.While driving, Benny Assex started going crazy, banging his hands against the steering wheel.Anderson and Lady Emma Assex were so terrified they couldn’t speak.“Brother, what… What are you doing?” Anderson asked.Screech!!!Benny suddenly stopped the car in the middle of the road and slapped Anderson across his face. “All of this happened because of you and your daughter! You two losers! D*mn it! Resources spent on you two are a waste. You bring nothing to the table and cause trouble all the time.”Anderson became enraged too. “Brother, what does this have to do with Emma and me?” he protested.“It’s all because your daughter wants to take over Lady Dorothy’s Dorothy-Alex Constructions, isn’t it? If that weren’t the case, Dorothy-Assex Constructions wouldn’

Three minutes later, it finally got better.The two looked at each other and suddenly burst out in laughter.Although a failed experience... it had at least served to enhance and deepen the bond between husband and wife.“Go and take a bath! I’ll wait for you, and I’ll get you a set of clothes,” Dorothy said as she rinsed her mouth. She had thrown up everything she had eaten in the morning.Her bathroom came with an attached shower room, so it wasn’t a big deal to take a bath here.Alex was exasperated. “Alright. Go and come back quickly, then.”Seeing the look of disappointment on his face, Dorothy couldn’t help but feel a little sorry. She whispered, “Okay, don’t look so sullen. I promise it won’t be like this the next time… It must be because we didn’t choose an appropriate location.”“If you say so.”“Yes, I said so… But you have to guarantee that you won’t hook up with that Cheryl woman behind me.”Alex was speechless. “There’s nothing going on between Cheryl and me.”Do

Simon grabbed Benny by his hair, his voice vicious. “All of my money, including the interest of 40 million. If I don’t see it today, then I’ll take one of your hands.”Benny trembled in shock and fear.In the meantime, upon hearing the commotion, Madam Joanne and Anderson rushed in. “What’s going on? What are you guys doing?!”“Which hole have you gangsters crawled out from? How dare you come to my Assex Constructions to make trouble? Do you know what the consequences are? Get out, all of you!” Madam Joanne bellowed at the top of her voice, holding her crutches. Seeing a bald man hitting her son, she got even angrier.Relying on the fact that she was a senior and that these people would be too afraid to hit her, she raised her cane and hit the bald man.Thwack!A bump and bruise appeared on the bald man’s head.Benny was startled. “Mother, leave it. I will…”Before he could finish his sentence, Simon had grabbed Madam Joanne by her hair, slamming her head onto the table.T

“What?!” Dorothy and Alex were startled when they heard Chen Jing’s words.Especially Alex. He thought to himself, ‘Could the poison Granny Blackwood administered have been too strong, and it ended up killing her in one shot?’However, Dorothy was quick to ask, “How did she die?”“I heard that she was killed on the scene by a gangster. The ringleader is a loan shark who gives out loans at a high-interest rate. Benny borrowed 40 million from them, and somehow, some conflict broke out in his office.”Assex Construction and Dorothy-Alex Construction used to be under the same umbrella, and Chen Jing still had friends over there. As soon as the incident took place, her friend had immediately called and told her about it.After Dorothy heard that, she was silent for a long time.Even though the old lady had treated her unjustly and had even wanted to conspire against her entire family, she was still her blood-related grandmother after all. She had been alive and kicking, being her do

She had even said that he was a liar with poor acting skills. She also said that she was Lord Lex Gunther in his face.At that point, she suddenly thought of dying!Would Lord Gunther kill her?And thus, the reason she didn’t pay much attention even when news of Madam Joanne’s death reached her. She only had one thought in her mind, and that was to figure out whether or not the person yesterday really was Lex Gunther, California’s underworld king. When Alex walked through the doors, he immediately saw Lex’s face on the TV screen.His eyes flashed. Then, he glanced at Claire, who was clearly shocked and frightened and chuckled. As expected, when Claire saw Alex, she immediately pointed to the TV screen and asked with a tone of urgency, “Tell me honestly, the person who came to your house to look for you yesterday. Was it him? Lex Gunther from Thousand Miles Conglomerate?”Dorothy’s expressions were that of great surprise. What was going on?Yesterday, she had personally fe

“What?“Okay, I’ll come right away!”Alex’s heart sank.Waltz had achieved Mystic-rank after using The Blood Cleansing Technique of hers. She was considered the number one master in the Thousand Miles Conglomerate, but yet she got injured?Who in the world was her opponent?After the call ended, Alex immediately said, “Wifey, I have something urgent to attend to, and I need to leave for a bit.”Having said that, he left in a hurry.“Hey, where are you going?” Dorothy asked as she chased after him.“I don’t have time to explain. I’ll tell you later when I come back.”While talking, Alex had already run out of the villa, not even bothered to take the car.How could a car move faster than his two legs?Heading to a place with no one around, he turned on his lightning attribute Chi. He moved his legs, which immediately turned into thunder and lighting, and he sped away.He once heard Waltz saying that some of the greater Warriors who could use the Eight Steps of Cicadas, a supr

Alex was sullen as he said, “Lead the way, quickly.”“Yes, yes, yes. Master Alex, This way please. Princess Fleur is recovering in the ward in the backyard.” One of them said quickly. Hell’s Angel was very big, it was much bigger than Yowell Manor. As the base of the king of California’s underworld, of course it had its own healing area and doctors on their payroll.Alex hurried and walked in, only to find the unconscious Waltz lying on the bed.At the moment, there was no sign of her usual beautiful, charming face that she usually had.Her entire body was covered in wounds. Her usually devastatingly beautiful face was red and swollen with large bruises, looking no different than a pig’s head. After activating his Third Eye to check Waltz’s condition, he was boiling with anger. As expected, her energy core had been shattered. The cultivation efforts of her inner force of Mystic rank were lost irrevocably. “Who hurt our Waltz?” Alex held Waltz’s wrist, carefully checking
