As Edgar Warrington was rushed to the ICU room, Alex followed after him with Dr. Lucy in tow.

The rest of the Warrington family was asked to wait outside, but Catherine Warrington was adamant in her refusal to leave her husband’s side.

“I am going in there with you. Let me through!”

Alex stopped and turned around, his sharp eyes glaring at Catherine. “If you want me to save your husband, don’t interfere.”

With that, he slammed the door in her face, shutting it from the inside. As the surgery lights turned on, Catherine Warrington backed away in shock.

No one had ever dared to treat her with such contempt before, and it left her feeling flustered and helpless.

“Did you just see the way that bastard treated grandma?” Blake questioned in an incredulous voice, trying to sow the seeds of turmoil once again. “Dr. Sonya was already doing her best trying to save grandpa, but you decided to trust a scamming rookie instead!”

Elizabeth quickly took Blake to task before he could spit more of his v

  • 39. Desperate for payback

    Inside a luxurious private resort on the island of New Haven, Felicia was standing on the porch and gazing out into the sunset. But instead of enjoying the natural beauty, her mind was focused on something else.Robert had tried to get her to sit down on the hammocks and take a drink, but she remained adamant in her refusal.“We came here to relax. You should at least try to enjoy the view,” he spoke timidly.Felicia barely heard a word as she was too distracted by her own thoughts.It wasn’t until Robert touched her lightly on the shoulder that she finally reacted.“What?” she snapped at him without warning. “What do you want me to do? Should I cook dinner for you? Or perhaps iron your clothes?”Robert was shocked by the sudden change in her behavior. He had never seen her act out so rudely in front of him, and it made him reconsider his approach.“I was just saying you should enjoy the view and forget all worries for now. We are at a private resort. Let’s enjoy our time off and spen

  • 38. The price of mercy

    Since Alex had violated the rules of the Blood Banner Market, he was forbidden from bidding on any of the other items that were still on auction. However, Paul honored his word and allowed him to leave with the two herbs he had won during the last round of bidding.“You shouldn’t have broken the rules, Mr. Verlaine,” Paul Sanchez whispered as he escorted Alex outside once the auction concluded. “I showed you my hospitality by welcoming you with open arms, yet you mocked this establishment by refusing to kill your opponent. It truly breaks my heart to see you go.”As Alex crossed the gate, he stopped and turned around to look at Paul.“I once saved your dear establishment from being hammered by the law. You would have been behind bars, if it weren’t for me.”Paul smiled peevishly, his face still stiff and rugged. “I haven’t forgotten anything. But now that debt has been repaid,” he muttered back.“I already have what I need, so I won’t bother you again. Good luck with your schemes.”A

  • 37. First Blood

    Seeing the raised wine glasses around him, the young guy in the viper mask turned anxious. He had never expected to see such enthusiasm about a duel. All the people in the room were supposed to be a part of the city’s elite upper circle, but none of them seemed to care about money or even the rare relics on offer. To them, watching a duelist kill another was the best form of entertainment.“If the bidders are ready, then I request them to walk over to this stage,” Paul Sanchez announced, clearing space for the challengers. Alex and the Red Viper climbed onto the stage and stood three feet apart with Paul acting as the mediator.“I would like to remind everyone that this is a highly exclusive establishment, and we are all civilized folk here. So, before we begin the duel, I will ensure it is completely impartial.”Like a magician performing a street trick, he pulled out a set of ten cards and held them face down before the two challengers.“First, we must choose a location. Please p

  • 36. Blood Banner Auction

    It was six in the evening when Alex pulled up outside a grand iron gate in his expensive black sedan. As he stepped out of the car, he was immediately stopped by two guards dressed in white suits.“This is private property. No trespassing.”One of the guards put his hand out, blocking his path.But Alex wasn’t dismayed in the slightest. He looked straight at him and replied, “I need to visit the night market. It’s urgent.”The guard raised a suspicious eyebrow and responded in a gruff voice, “Entry by invitation only. Please go back.”Alex put his hands in his pockets and shook his head dismissively.“Do me a favor, would you? Just go in there and tell Paul Sanchez that Alexander has returned. I am sure he would be happy to hear it.”***Inside the luxurious gothic mansion, the grand dancing reception hall was holding a gathering of the city’s most influential businessmen and notorious smugglers.Men and women wearing masquerade masks sat on gold-rimmed Elizabethan chairs in front of

  • 35. Dragon Orchid Dilemma

    Later in the afternoon, Josiah Warrington accompanied Alex and Dr. Lucy to Greenville, where their largest greenhouse was located. It was a state-of-the-art agricultural facility, equipped with automatic irrigation sprinklers, humidity control, and an advanced temperature regulation system. “We call this greenhouse Demeter. Named after the Greek Goddess of Fertility. It is a completely automated enclosure that requires minimal human intervention. Everything you need can be controlled with the touch of a button, and we have sensors monitoring all environmental conditions within, eliminating the need for daily visits.”Alex was impressed by what he was seeing. But he still looked at Dr. Lucy for confirmation.“Will this work?” he asked.Dr. Lucy had to admit this greenhouse was even better than the control labs in Kryon Tech and could easily produce ten times the yield. “This is perfect. We can grow the herbs quite easily here.”Josiah was intrigued by their conversation and couldn’t

  • 34. A reputation in ruins

    Ever since Felicia had become the CEO of Femme Fatale, she had gotten used to having the limelight on her at all times, but this frenzied paparazzi madness was something else entirely. The reporters had dug up everything, from her brother’s medical records to pictures of her private moments with Robert. The questions kept pouring from every direction, making her feel like she was being interrogated at court for some heinous crime.“Robert…We need to get out of here,” she pleaded, tugging at Robert’s sleeve. “They are all behaving like savages. I…can’t take this anymore.”“Let’s get back inside the hotel,” Robert replied, taking her hand and heading indoors.Even the hotel’s guest lobby was abuzz with gossip as the 42-inch LED TV at the reception flashed the news headlines in bold red letters, and the lead reporter kept hurling accusations at Felicia.Pressed into a tight corner, Robert had no choice but to call the one man who could help him out.“Dad! We are stuck at Chrysler Bluffs
