Chapter 21
At that moment, upon seeing David, Alexander George immediately stood up from his leather chair with dramatic flair and started clapping slowly, each clap echoing through the warehouse like a mocking applause.“Well, just look who we have here!” Alexander declared, his voice dripping with sarcasm and vindictive satisfaction. “The big man, the tough guy, the hero!” He gestured grandly toward David as if presenting him to an audience. “The boy who thinks he can actually save everybody, the boy who thinks he can actually say whatever he wants and do whatever he wants and just get away with it!”Alexander's expression twisted into a cruel sneer as he took a step closer, his expensive shoes clicking against the concrete floor. “Well, it seems your cup is full and it's finally going to overflow, because I will not take it lightly with you anymore.” His voice rose with barely controlled rage. “So tell me, how do you feel now? How does it feel to have raised your filthy hands against me? H
Chapter 22
Alexander continued, his voice shaking with barely controlled rage as he waved his hand dismissively at David.“I'm not going to waste my time explaining anything to you,” he spat, his tone dripping with contempt. “You need to get down on your knees right now and apologize immediately!” He pointed at the ground in front of him, as if commanding a dog to heel.His voice grew even more venomous as he outlined his plans. “Then, after your pathetic apology has been accepted, you're going to get the beating of your life.” A cruel smile spread across his face as he gestured broadly around the warehouse. “And after that, I'm going to use you, and that smelly-looking old man, and his useless sick granddaughter as examples to everyone in this city.” His eyes gleamed with malicious satisfaction. “Examples that nobody, and I mean nobody—messes with Alexander George and gets away with it.”The warehouse fell into a tense silence as Alexander's words echoed off the concrete walls. His men shift

Hearing Nikki's words, Alexander immediately stopped his brutal assault on the old man and turned to face her. His eyes locked onto hers with an intensity that made her blood run cold.Nikki's entire body started shaking uncontrollably the moment his attention focused on her. Terror flooded through her veins as she realized what she had just done. She couldn't believe she had actually spoken out when she wasn't supposed to say anything, when staying silent might have kept her safe.Immediately her knees felt weak, and she instinctively took a small step backward, but there was nowhere to go with Alexander men positioned all around them.At that moment, Alexander's lips curved into a deadly smile that held no warmth, only predatory intent. He looked at Nikki the way a snake might study a mouse before striking.“Oh, look at this beauty we have here,” he said, his voice sickeningly sweet as he began walking toward her with slow, deliberate steps. “So you couldn't keep your mouth shut, c
Chapter 24
At that moment, hearing what David just said, Alexander George couldn't even take the humiliation anymore. The calm confidence in David's voice, the absolute lack of fear, the promise that he would leave here safely it all combined to push Alexander beyond his breaking point.His face twisted with uncontrolled rage as he realized that David was still defying him, still refusing to show the terror and submission that Alexander craved. The mockery of his authority was more than his fragile ego could bear.“You really want to push me?” Alexander snarled, his voice shaking with fury. “You really want to see what I'm capable of, don't you?” His eyes blazed with a madness that came from a lifetime of never being told 'no,' never facing real consequences for his actions.“So I'm going to show you exactly how crazy I can be!” Alexander declared, his voice rising to an almost hysterical pitch.At that moment, he turned away from David and walked straight toward the sick girl who was seated in
Chapter 25
Immediately, without wasting another second, Alexander George shouted at his men with blood still dripping from his mouth, “What are you guys still doing standing there? Somebody just assaulted me and you guys are still standing there like idiots?”His voice was shrill with pain and humiliation as he pointed frantically at David. “Move! Now!”Immediately, that was when the men snapped out of their shock and started walking toward David with menacing intent. Their confident swagger had returned as they closed in on what they assumed would be easy prey.“We're going to torture him,” one of them growled, cracking his knuckles. “We're going to deal with him properly today.”At that moment, before the men could reach David, Alexander George's voice rang out again, even more venomous than before. “Not just torture him!” he screamed, spitting more blood. “I want him dead! Beat him to the point that he won't be able to recognize himself again! That's what I want from him!”At that moment,

At that moment, upon seeing what just happened, Nikki couldn't believe her eyes. Even though she had witnessed David fight before and knew how skilled he could be, she never imagined that David would be able to dismantle all of these dangerous men so easily, so effortlessly.The way he moved through their attacks like they were happening in slow motion, the precision of every strike, the complete control he maintained throughout the entire encounter it was unlike anything she had ever witnessed. And he had done it all without even breaking a sweat, his breathing still calm and steady as if he had just taken a casual walk rather than fought seven trained fighters.This display of skill made Nikki even more shocked, but also, she had to admit to herself, even more attracted to David. There was something incredibly powerful about watching someone stand up for the helpless with such devastating effectiveness, something that spoke to a primal part of her that admired strength used in servi

Alexander George continued, his voice rising with desperate fury despite the blood still flowing from his ruined mouth. “I will never allow you to utter such nonsense again! You should be mindful of what you're saying!” His words came out slightly slurred due to his missing teeth, but the venom in his tone was unmistakable. “How dare you utter such nonsense when you're supposed to be crying and begging, thinking about how you're going to save your own pathetic ass? How dare you interfere in my business like you have any authority here?”At that moment, David didn't even look at Alexander George. Instead, he completely ignored the spoiled rich man's ranting and faced the old man, who was lying on the cold concrete floor, his breathing labored and his body trembling from shock and pain.David's voice became soft and reassuring as he knelt beside the elderly man. “You're going to be fine,” he said gently, placing a steady hand on the old man's shoulder. “Your granddaughter is going t
Chapter 28
At that moment, upon hearing what David just said about wanting to speak with him privately, immediately Alexander George couldn't believe his ears. Even though he was still visibly hurt, blood still trickling from his mouth where his teeth used to be, his pride and arrogance refused to let him show any weakness or submission.“You think you can literally—you can literally talk down to me like that?” Alexander spat, his words slightly slurred but filled with venom. “You think you can literally look down on me in whatever way you see fit? Well, that is never going to happen! That will never happen!”Despite his injuries and the obvious danger he was in, Alexander's entitled rage seemed to override any sense of self-preservation. His voice grew stronger, more defiant, as if saying the words would somehow restore his power and authority.“I will show you, and I will still remind you, that I am Alexander George!” he declared, his bloodied face twisted with stubborn pride. “Nobody actuall

Simultaneously, David continued his brutal assault, landing multiple devastating slaps onto Alexander George's face in rapid succession. Each impact echoed through the warehouse like gunshots, each one adding to the catastrophic damage being inflicted.Left side. Right side. Left again. Right again. The slaps came with mechanical precision, each one carrying the full force of David's righteous fury channeled into controlled violence.This time, it wasn't just Alexander's cheeks that had swollen beyond recognition. His forehead began to bulge outward grotesquely from the impacts. His eyes were swelling shut, the flesh around them turning dark purple and closing until he could barely see through the narrowing slits. His lips had ballooned to three times their normal size, split and bleeding from multiple places.Even his ears hadn't escaped the onslaught they had turned bright red and swollen, sticking out from the sides of his misshapen head at odd angles.Everything about Alexander's
Chapter 30
At that moment, upon hearing what Elizabeth had just said, immediately Mr. George's eyes squinted dangerously as he leaned forward in his throne-like chair. The temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees as his expression darkened with barely contained fury.Then he faced Elizabeth properly, his full attention now focused on her like a spotlight that threatened to burn her where she stood. His voice, when it came, was cold and sharp as a blade.“So, you just came here to actually apologize for what, exactly?” Mr. George's words dripped with contempt and disbelief. “Because some acquaintance of yours, somebody that actually worked with you before, literally assaulted my son?” His voice began to rise with each word, the anger building like a gathering storm.“Not just on any other day,” he continued, his fist clenching on the armrest of his chair, “but on a very important day in my entire family's history!” He gestured broadly around the mansion, where the sounds of a celeb
