Alex Rockefeller laughed dryly, "Of course, you are… Way more beautiful,” he said.Daya Stoermer sat down elegantly. “This time, I caused you and me to have a scandal. I’m truly sorry. Did your wife misunderstand anything after that?”Alex sighed a little. “We got divorced today.”Upon saying that, Alex wanted to slap himself again.‘What the heck? This foul mouth of mine! Why did I say that?’ Alex thought.Daya’s eyes immediately lit up, and her heart raced. It was as though she saw a glimmer of hope… She didn’t want to miss this fated opportunity. They were destined to be together!How could she miss this chance?“Was it because of me?” She leaned over and asked softly.“Not entirely,” replied Alex.“I’ve heard a little bit about you guys. The Assex family doesn’t seem to treat you well. I heard that Lady Dorothy’s mother makes things difficult for you, and she thinks of you as a thorn in the flesh. In the past, she treated you like a nanny…” Daya said.Alex waved his hand.
Admittedly, Chloe Marionette had nearly died after getting beaten up by Heath Accordo.In fact, she had personally witnessed how terrifying Alex Rockefeller’s moves were.She should have learned from such an experience, knowing when to back off and stop messing with Alex. However, the man in her arms was no ordinary person. He was Mr. Coleman, a member of one of California’s four largest families!Mr. Coleman was a powerful martial artist in his own right, and he was way tougher than that coward, Heath Accardo. Last night, Chloe found out from a friend that Heath had died for some unknown reason.That coward deserved to die!With Mr. Coleman here, there was no reason for Chloe to be afraid!The full name of the man in Chloe’s arms, Mr. Coleman, was Sven Coleman. His eyes instantly darted between Alex and Daya Stoermer.He noticed that Daya was wearing a hat and a mask at night, with only her eyes showing. However, her pupils seemed lively and her skin fair. Moreover, her figure
“Huh?!” The owner of the cruise ship immediately shouted in surprise. Even his cheeks trembled in fear.The Coleman family ranked second among the four most influential families in California. How could a lowly owner of a cruise ship like him afford to offend someone from such a background? A single sentence was enough to ruin his business in California. In fact, he might not even live to see tomorrow.The owner got up and very hastily apologized. “I’m sorry. I’m terribly sorry! I didn’t know it was Mr. Coleman that had come here. I deserve to die. I shouldn’t have interfered!”“Get lost!”The owner quickly ran off.He didn’t even want to manage the cruise ship anymore.Alex Rockefeller looked calmly at Chloe Marionette. “Looks like you haven’t learned your lesson. Wasn’t it nice just staying at home? Why must you be out and about, ruining the lives of others? Look, now this Coleman guy and a bunch of trash had to all eat poop because of you.”“F*ck!” Sven Coleman shouted angril
Sven and Chloe Marionette were shocked. Something had to be wrong with the heads of those three guys, right?Why did they suddenly go nuts? Did they really go to the toilet and found some shit to eat?Even Alex was surprised, and he had to give Zendaya a double-take.His hearing was excellent, and he could clearly hear what went on in the toilet among the three. It was easy enough to tell that they were actually really eating something!Such was the extent of Zendaya’s mental powers.Sven was stunned, his jaw slacked. He had a broken arm, but his legs were fine. He immediately rushed forward to see for himself. When he did, he was sickened at the sight…“Blargh!!!”Sven’s face turned green, and he ran out to throw up.When he saw Alex and Zendaya walking toward him, an inexplicable fear welled up within, especially when he saw Zendaya’s all-wrapped-up face. It gave out a mysterious and terrifying vibe… It was this very woman who had simply muttered a few words, and his brothe
“Now that you have such strong mental power, you should be able to protect yourself easily if you encounter any ordinary gangster. I can be assured right now.” Alex said in a sincere voice. They stood on the deck, where a gentle breeze blew, and the soft sound of the lake’s running water could be heard.Zendaya said nothing, merely peering silently into the dark waters of Willow Lake.After a long time, she finally said in a quiet voice, “Even if I had a thousand abilities, what’s the use? I still can’t get rid of the shackles of fate, and I still can’t love anyone. Even if I stood above all living beings, I’d still have to endure the emptiness and loneliness. Do you understand how I feel now, ‘lex?”Alex felt a little embarrassed and awkward, and he couldn’t answer.Zendaya was well aware of it too, and she didn’t force him.If he couldn’t hide from the world with her, he would have to bear the brunt of Michigan’s Stoermer family and Missouri’s Coleman family. It was something
The winds were calm, and the sky was moonless. Even the bustling lights on the shore seemed so far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.When Alex opened his eyes, Zendaya had already left.Though the beautiful woman was gone, her fragrance still lingered in the air. There seemed to be a haunting song in his ear, playing itself on repeat.“Since ancient times, passion has been mistaken ruthlessly as yearning for love,How strange the lasting summer heat and cold winters have become through the years,Three stones, three roads, three lifetimes of life and dust returning to earth,But yearning is not to be defeated, and when I see you again, I hope we’ll be as we were,Like a beautiful flower cared for, a life without you is just a fleeting waste...”While Zendaya was singing this song, he was still in a confused state. Though his mind was still in a daze, he saw Zendaya leaving and how reluctant she was to leave his side.But at this moment, this tune seemed to have en
Later, he thought, ‘That’s just great timing. In three days, I’ll be participating in the Southern California Business Association competition. I can approach Michigan’s Stoermer family and ask them personally… I can’t just allow myself to lose my virginity in vain, right?’In other words, since he took her first time, he should find a way to repay it.Simultaneously, Sven, Chloe, and the rest of us were all going through gastric lavage in the hospital.Naturally, these people had become conscious the moment they had their fill of feces and started throwing up immediately. That thing was on their bodies, clothes, faces, and most crucially in their mouths. The enormity of the inhumanity they had just been put through made them hate themselves so much they wanted to smash their heads on the wall and just die! “Ahhhhh!”“Asshole! I’m going to smash that stinky head of his! I want them dead. I want them to die for me!” Sven screamed before a piece of sh*t came out of his mouth, causi
Boom!Suddenly, there was a thunderous explosion.The dark, gloomy sky brightly lit up with a flash of lightning. The hundreds of boats crossing together on Willow Lake looked like a graceful picture.A few night owls were walking by the lake, and they were all dumbfounded when they caught a glimpse of the scene on the lake.George Curtis was an independent media publisher, and he had several popular verified online platforms. He usually carried a camera to take various pictures, which would then be uploaded onto his platforms. Some money could be made by attracting online traffic. Earlier tonight, he happened to be at a random karaoke joint beside Willow Lake with a friend. It was midnight when they were done. He had decided to take a walk by the lake, and when a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed, he caught sight of movement in the lake. His sharp mind instantly had him thinking of a topic that would generate more traffic to his online platforms. The camera that he had on h
