Chapter 20: The Real SurpriseBefore the cars arrived, a strong fragrance of fresh roses filled the air. Everyone turned to look and saw two sleek, black Audi A6L vehicles decorated with vibrant red roses pulling up to the scene.Jennifer Zhao’s heart sank. Her eyebrows creased as she stared at the floral display. Was this the "bigger surprise" Elon Mu had been referring to?"Alfred Lucas, let’s just go," Jennifer Zhao said, frowning as she tried to walk away.Alfred Lucas gently held her back. "It’s alright. I prepared a surprise for you."Elon Mu scoffed loudly."Surprise? Do not embarrass yourself. Let me guess, you want to pretend those two cars are your surprise? Don’t make me laugh."He glanced at the decorated Audis again, his eyes showing a flicker of concern. But the idea that Alfred Lucas could be the owner never crossed his mind."Is that so?" Alfred Lucas said calmly. "Then let’s see who’s really a joke."As if on cue, the two Audi A6L sedans parked neatly by the curb."Yo

Chapter 19: The Arrival That Shut Them UpMany customers had tried negotiating special conditions, but they often walked away without buying once they couldn’t get what they wanted.Today, however, a man had shown up in a beat-up old Camelia and said he wanted to buy two cars for eight hundred thousand.Eighty percent chance he was bluffing.The other saleswomen at the dealership watched the situation unfold with amusement. Most were waiting for the moment the so-called customer would embarrass himself. After all, if this man was serious, he would have to place a deposit—possibly even pay in full.It was peak season. Most of the vehicles were already in stock."I’m not joking," Alfred Lucas said calmly."Okay, okay. Please take a look at our financial plans. I’d suggest going with a two-year loan. This structure is more–""All," Alfred interrupted.His answer caused more heads to turn.There were certainly people who could buy two cars in full, but very few spoke so casually about it.

Chapter 18: The Car Purchase That Silenced EveryoneAfter dinner, Alfred Lucas excused himself, saying he had something to take care of, and parted ways with Jennifer Zhao.Jennifer returned to her new office, while Alfred drove straight to the car dealership after dropping her off.Earlier that day, outside Jennifer’s company, she had been embarrassed and disgusted by the group of men because of her car which was a beat-up, nearly scrap-worthy Camelia. If a sleek Mercedes Benz, BMW, or Audi had been parked there instead, they would never have dared to behave that way.Besides, both Jennifer Zhao’s company and Alfred’s own growing company needed a decent car to match their image. Originally, when Alfred drafted his business plan, buying a car was not part of the budget. But since the eight hundred thousand dollars borrowed in Jennifer’s name had not been used for her company, Alfred decided it could be allocated for something practical.This was not embezzlement after all it was for w

Chapter 17: The Anniversary Surprise"Hello, was it successful?""It's done.""Good. Make sure every other things are settled. Don’t let there be any mistakes since this is also a special event.""Absolutely!"Alfred Lucas ended the call."Are you busy?" Jennifer Zhao asked. She was in a good mood, now that Alfred Lucas had started working. Hearing him on the phone made her assume he was handling something work-related."Nothing. Let’s eat first." Alfred Lucas replied, and the two of them sat at their table.After placing their order, they began to wait.Not long after, Jennifer Zhao noticed a girl walking by holding a large bouquet of roses. Nearby, someone played soft violin music at a table not far from theirs.The French atmosphere was romantic and elegant. It was the kind of experience she had only seen in movies and dream of experiencing as a young teenage girl expose to love.Jennifer glanced at Alfred Lucas. Her heart was warm, but deep down, there was a tinge of disappointmen

Chapter 16: The Cold Truth"Really? I’ve got something to handle," Mr. Feng said casually.As he walked past Alfred Lucas, he gave him a quick wink and stepped out, leaving Alfred and Jennifer Zhao alone in the wide, clean office space. Jennifer glanced around again. The building was clearly new, with modern facilities and top-quality furnishings.This kind of space must cost a fortune."Alfred Lucas… did you borrow the eight hundred thousand from Mr. Feng?" she asked. Her tone was a little hesitant."Yes," Alfred replied calmly.Jennifer paused, her lips parting slightly. There was a flicker of apology in her eyes.If the money really came from Mr. Feng, she had no reason to doubt it. But last night, she had assumed it was shady money, maybe even from a loan shark. She had jumped to the worst conclusion."Alfred, I... yesterday I—""You believed Elon Mu."Alfred's voice came out cold. It was sharp and direct, like he had no energy left to pretend.Jennifer looked down and tucked her

Chapter 15: I Work for Mr. FengThe way Alfred Lucas threw money in the follower’s face made the man furious. Just then, the security guard came out from the building."What’s going on here?"The guard called out as he approached. But as soon as he noticed Jennifer Zhao standing nearby, he softened. He gave a polite smile.In this office building, not many people had close contact with Jennifer Zhao. But those who had seen her knew she was stunning. The security guards who worked here noticed her every time she passed by. She was unforgettable.The follower stepped up quickly and pointed in Alfred’s direction."Security, look at this guy. He threw money in my face! We were just trying to speak with the car owner. Sure, maybe the car was parked wrong, but that’s no reason for him to come in swinging money like that. This guy’s out of line!"He tried to sound like the victim, as if Alfred had bullied them.The other men nodded, acting like they were the ones being wronged. They hoped th

10"Em…e…embrace…it" Rex muttered, and suddenly his eyes brightened, shining differently from his usual dark green as now it shone completely green!.Bam!No one, not even Rex, knew where he got the power from, but he was able to stop the punch as he grasped hold of the fist tightly. No matter how the man tried to pull away he still couldn't."Im…impossible!" The man yells with disbelief."Are you shocked? Are you surprised? This is just the beginning," Rex said as he threw a punch of his which carried both his frustration and anger towards the man.Bang!What happened shocked both his sister, who was hiding and watching it with the other 4 passengers.The brute's neck got snapped into two as he dropped on the floor lifelessly.Rex didn't rest as he saw the butler who looked seriously injured and might be stabbed any moment from now. He stood up and ran towards them within seconds he reached there, surprising both the butler and the other two thieves.Rex threw a straight punch withou

The door leading to the VIP section was blown apart as 5 people with masks covering their faces rushed in."Everyone! On the floor and don't try anything funny, or you will definitely have your blood spray here, and I ain't kidding!" The muscular one among them said in a threatening tone."Oh shit come on, you gotta be kidding me. Why now of all times?" Rex said with a squeezed smile which made his face look more like someone crying."Oh shit come on, you gotta be kidding me. Why now of all times?" Rex said with a smile which made his face look more like someone crying.[Please just rob who-so-ever you wanna rob and go away, it's not like I am a hero.] Rex thought as he lay on the floor flat with his face hidden. He sneakily took a peak at the butler and also saw him on the floor and right at that moment the butler also turned and looked at him.Rex shot him a look like he was trying to say 'I told you let's take a car, but you said otherwise and now see what mess we in'"Give me the

"A place I have created outside of space and time, where I may converse with those I have chosen," the voice explained. "Oh...okay," Rex said, still feeling a little confused. "But why did you bring me here?" The voice was silent for a moment, as if contemplating on how to say it, after some while, he finally said, "Do you know thousands, if not, over a million people that you consider to be ordinary on earth are not? There exist martial combaters capable of doing the extraordinary, witches, people with abilities and even demons, ghosts and a lot more evil beings on earth. Whenever they tend to fight, they always make sure never to leave behind any evidence, which is why literally little to no ordinary citizens know about them." Rex's lackadaisical expression changed instantly as he asked, even though his voice didn't sound, but it was like the being could hear it. "This... This can't be true, right? How can you say the earth is filled with such extraordinary stuff and the

Silvia knew she couldn't stand such force and it would destroy her family. Looking at Granny for help only to see Granny giving her a weak smile, showing that the situation has gone beyond her control.Silvia, left with no choice, only sign it with pain and regret, wailing in her heart.Following that, Rex took the papers, looked at everyone coldly, then nodded at the butler and followed them out. From that moment, his name will spread across the country and from then, he is sure no one will dare mess with him.Even after he left, the party didn't continue as everyone left one by one leaving the grandmother and her granddaughter in shame.*****10 minutes later~30 black expensive cars with their headlights on speed out of the Walker family in straight lines and head towards the road which will take them to the airport.Sitting inside one of the cars which was a limousine, was Rex and the butler."Let me get this straight - Grandpa wants me to build a secret army, disguised as a mafi

6At the front of the group stood a man with pure white hair that fell in a perfect coif, not a strand out of place. Though his hair was white, his eyes were the color of a vibrant summer sky, bright and shining."Greetings, my lady," he said, bowing slightly. "Happy birthday to you. I am Jace, the butler of the Archibald family, and I bring greetings from our patriarch."His words hung in the air like a bomb about to explode. The other guests looked at each other in shock, unsure of how to react. "Jace, the great butler of the Archibald family?" one of the guests exclaimed. "The right-hand man of the patriarch?""Impossible!" another said, his voice trembling with disbelief. "What business would such an important person have here?""Who is he?" someone else asked, confusion evident in their voice. "Why are you all acting like he's a god?" Another added."He's not just any butler," another explained. "He's the right-hand man of the Archibald family patriarch, and he's worth more t

"Granny, accept this 79-year-old ginseng which I bought from an auction worth 11.3 million dollars as a gift to you from me." A chubby man walked forward proudly and said with a loud voice as he dropped a gift wrapped with some designer clothes."Granny, accept this ancient Dante sword. It is said to hold over 3 thousand years of history. I purchased it for the sum of 20 million dollars only" another one said, adding the word 'only' just to belittle the first one which successfully worked, the first one's cheek turned red from shame."Granny, accept my…""Granny, this gift is for…""It's only 56 million dollars…"As time went by more and more bigshots came forward with their gifts and each gift was greater than the previous one. Making Granny grin ear to ear from happiness.She couldn't help but give an emotional talk."Thank you all. I never knew I was special, you people even though we don't know each other or rather we are just business partners but you made my birthday worth it. S
