Chapter 100
Just as Waltz was about to snap, Alex said, “Your right chest has been wounded in the past, right? So you’d feel pain frequently under your third rib on the right. This would affect your training. Whenever you try to control your Chi, you’d feel immense pain around your lungs.”Waltz was shocked. “How did you know that?”Alex replied calmly, “I can cure it for you, maybe even help you improve your fighting skills as well. But if you don’t want to be my servant, then so be it.”Walt’s eyes lit up and exclaimed. “I’ll do it, I’ll totally do it!” After a momentary pause, she said shyly, “But… I don’t know how to serve in bed.”Alex wanted to tease her even further. ‘I’ll teach you that!’ He thought.But he suppressed that thought and acted nonchalantly. “Even if you did, I wouldn’t let you. Just hurry up and deal with this.”Waltz made a brief call and ordered someone to come over to clean up the scene, easing Alex’s anxious mind.Alex nodded towards the corpse and said, “This Br

Alex folded his arms behind his back and cocked his head as he stared at his cousin. He couldn’t help but sigh deeply.Back then, these people were exceptionally respectful to him. They even called him their big brother. However, with the recent events, this clingy cousin was now absolutely disgusted by and insulting him. It was as if she wanted to crush him under her feet.‘Oh well, since you treat me like trash, why would I hold on to our past relationships?’He calmly said, “That old man is now paralyzed? Well, that was quick. I guess that’s what we call karma!”Carol was infuriated. “What did you say? How dare you speak of Grandpa like that? Are you human or just a pest? Since your dad is a pest, then I guess you are one too!”Alex suddenly raised an arm and slapped Carol across her face. It started swelling up from the impact.Alex’s expression was cold and his eyes were as sharp as a dagger. “When you were nine, your house was set on fire. The fire became so strong, even yo

His father’s bright smile was engraved into his brain, as if he was right there with him. Remembering his smile broke Alex’s heart.“Dad, you were the one who chose and bought this place. You lived here!“Your son will get it back for you,” Alex murmured to himself.He closed his eyes, engulfed by his thoughts.It was five in the evening by the time John rushed back to the manor from the hospital, feeling bloodthirsty. He blamed Alex and Brittany for the states his son and father were in. He wanted to let out his anger on and torture the two b*tches.But when he got to the entrance, he saw the guards.As Fred opened his mouth, John pushed him aside and asked coldly, “Is that pest Alex here?”Fred didn’t dare disobey him and said, “He’s here.”“Very good,” John said as he rushed into the manor. He had already thought of multiple ways to torture both the mother and son.However, there was no one around, not even Brock, when he walked into the manor. There was only Alex resting o

“What?”“Behind their accident?”Alex stirred chaos among the Rockefellers with that one question.Everyone turned to John, waiting for an answer. Even Noah looked over in his direction.John snapped out of his daze and became more infuriated. “Bullsh*t! Why would I be behind that accident? Do you suspect that I killed your dad? Do you think I’d kill my own brother? Who do you take me for?“Your father, William, betrayed our country and tried to make a run for it! He was the one who didn’t pay attention to the road and panicked! He collided with some driver and got into that accident. He caused his own death. What does that have to do with me?“Besides, his actions have caused us Rockefellers to endure shame and humiliation. We’re now a laughing stock because of him. We can’t even go by our lives in peace in California all because your father and mother Brittany just had to succumb to their greed!” Upon hearing John’s words, the Rockefellers started blaming and accusing them as

John snorted. “Don’t worry. Rockefeller Group and this manor are owned by our Rockefeller family. Since William is dead, there is no way Alex could take everything back. He can keep on dreaming. I will give him nothing, not even a single penny!”“But, he seems to have become more powerful. Did he actually train himself during the time he went missing? Look at the table… it is said that only fighters could do that,” replied Carol.As part of California’s high society, it was reasonable for Carol to know of the existence of such people—fighters.“So what if he is one? What decade is he living in? No matter how powerful he is at fighting, he’s still vulnerable and there’s no way he could dodge an actual bullet,” John snorted.He glared at Pepper Kimmich and thought, ‘Two months? Hmph, within these two months I’ll send both you and your cheap mom down to the depths of hell.’Instantly, he felt much better as his mind became clearer. However, he suddenly thought about Brock, who he had

Charles Carter answered the question instead with a smile, “Hailey owns a beauty salon chain. Years ago, she wanted to develop her own products so she bought a small manufacturing plant with an R&D center to realize her ambitions. That being said, till now nothing ever comes of it, so it has been dormant for a while.”In fact, Hailey had actually discussed the matter with Brittany earlier.Otherwise, Hailey would not have mentioned it now.Brittany was also a capable businesswoman years ago so she could understand business operations very well.She said with a smile, “Alex, after talking to Hailey, I think we can work together closely. Her beauty salon chain needs a flagship product currently and I am confident we can just develop the right ultra-popular product for her.”What was the ultra-popular product? Something that would surpass the sales of the also-popular freckle cream produced by Rockefeller Group.That being said, Brittany did not reveal much about their plans. After

He looked straight ahead, but his gaze fell under Waltz’s neck, and in that instant he felt as though he was greeted by an awe-inspiring view from a very high place.Even though his mind said no the entire time, his body was far more honest. Suddenly, his hands were placed on her waist.“Not that I refuse to teach you, it’s just that your basics are too horrible.” Alex was flustered with rapid breathing and could not think straight.“Oh, really? What should I do then? Senior, about the chakra pill you mentioned previously, what is it?” She rocked her body once again and spoke in a flirtatious voice.“Well, the chakra pill is…”Before he could finish speaking, he heard a cough coming from the stairs.It was Brittany, who had been standing by the staircase for some time, who looked at them with a surprised and awkward expression as she secretly thought, “Brat, she’s your junior in martial arts? Isn’t she just a bed-warming junior?” Alex hurriedly pushed Waltz away in shock and sa

The smell of perfume?Alex’s mind buzzed for a while, and almost let the cat out of the bag. He could not possibly tell Dorothy that Waltz just sat on his lap and rocked her body on and on, infusing him with the scent of her perfume.He could still think straight, so he hurriedly explained, “Of course not, I have not seen Dr. Coney at all today. As for the perfume… I remember it now. It was Hailey’s, I just hugged…”Before he could finish speaking, Beatrice exclaimed, “You hugged Hailey?”Alex immediately corrected his words. “Let me finish speaking. I hugged Hailey’s daughter, Zoey. She had her mother’s perfume scent on her too.”“Is it so?”“Of course, why don’t you ask her yourself?”“Nah, I trust you.”Alex quickly grabbed her delicate hands and said, “Dorothy, I am so happy that you are so concerned for me, do you know that? During this period of time, I thought you didn’t love me anymore, and I almost wanted to die.”Dorothy did not refuse his advances but looked at hi
