Chapter 166
Victor Chen was visibly shaking, beads of sweat rolling down his temples despite the ballroom's comfortable temperature. All around him, cameras flashed like strobe lights as reporters and guests captured every moment of his humiliation. The images would be everywhere by morning—on every news site, every social media platform, every business publication.Victor Chen, the man who'd thrown a gala to celebrate his success, now on his knees on the stage of his own celebration.But he wasn't done yet. He couldn't go down like this. His pride—battered and bleeding as it was—refused to let him surrender without one final stand."You're bluffing!" Victor's voice cracked as he forced himself back to his feet, his legs wobbling beneath him. "This is all some elaborate bluff! There's no way you actually bought Global Inc! You're just... you're just trying to scare me!"The crowd watched in fascinated horror, unable to look away from the spectacle unfolding before them."Fifty thousand dollars?!"
CHAPTER 165 PART 2
Alexander leaned in close, his voice dropping to a whisper that only Victor could hear. "When I'm done exposing what you did to Katarina, when the world knows you're a kidnapper, a rapist, and a criminal who uses chemical weapons on innocent women, your share prices won't just drop. They'll be worth absolutely nothing. You'll be radioactive. Untouchable. Destroyed."Victor's hands began to shake. Sweat beaded on his forehead as panic set in. This couldn't be happening. This wasn't supposed to happen. He was supposed to be untouchable now, protected by wealth and status and connections.Then, in a moment of pure desperation, Victor's hand dove into his jacket pocket. His fingers closed around the familiar canister—the Mesmerizer spray that had worked so perfectly on Katarina and even on Vanessa.If he could just spray Alexander now, in front of everyone, he could turn this around. Make Alexander recant his statements. Make him restore the contract. Make him go away forever.Victor pull
Chapter 165 PART 1
Victor Chen threw his head back and laughed—a harsh, desperate sound that echoed through the stunned ballroom. "This is ridiculous! Absolute nonsense! Who the hell do you think you are, barging up here and making such outrageous claims?"He hadn't witnessed what Alexander had done to Ethan Zhang. He'd been too focused on his speech, too absorbed in his moment of glory to notice the systematic destruction happening just feet away. Now he stood there, microphone-less, trying to reclaim control of a situation that was rapidly spiraling beyond his grasp."Security!" Victor shouted, gesturing wildly toward Alexander. "This man is disrupting my gala! Remove him immediately!"But the security guards didn't move. They stood frozen, exchanging uncertain glances, as if they instinctively understood that this man in the midnight blue suit was not someone they wanted to tangle with.Alexander's voice cut through Victor's bluster like a blade. "Victor Chen is not needed in my company. Effective im

"—And everyone here can see right through your pathetic little—"Alexander calmly pulled out his phone mid-sentence, not even bothering to acknowledge Ethan's continued rant. His fingers moved across the screen with practiced ease, selecting a contact and bringing the device to his ear.Ethan's tirade faltered for just a moment. "What are you doing? Are you seriously ignoring me right now?""One moment," Alexander said into the phone, his voice cool and professional. "Execute Protocol Seven. Target: Zhang Enterprises. Full collapse. Authorization code: Omega-Black-Seven-Three.""Yes, sir," came the response from the other end. "Initiating immediately."Ethan laughed, the sound shrill and mocking. "Oh my God, are you calling Vanessa to cry to her? 'Help me, Vanessa! The mean man is being rude to me!' That's so pathetic! You can't even fight your own battles!"The crowd tittered with nervous laughter, some people pulling out their own phones to record what they assumed would be Alexande
Chapter 163
The moment Alexander stepped through those doors, the entire ballroom seemed to freeze. Conversation died mid-sentence. Champagne glasses paused halfway to lips. Every eye in the room fixed on the man who had just arrived with an entrance that screamed wealth, power, and absolute confidence.The suit he wore was a masterpiece of tailoring—midnight blue fabric that probably cost more than the entire gala Victor had organized. It hugged his frame perfectly, accentuating broad shoulders and a powerful build that somehow seemed even more impressive than it had before. His shoes were Italian leather, polished to a mirror shine. The three rings on his fingers caught the chandelier light and sparkled like captured stars.But it was more than just the clothes or the accessories. It was the presence. The way Alexander carried himself—head high, shoulders back, moving with the lethal grace of a apex predator who knew exactly how dangerous he was.Lila's mouth fell open, her champagne glass trem
Chapter 162
Victor Chen stood in the grand ballroom of the Celestial Hotel, surveying his domain with the satisfaction of a king looking over his conquered territory. Crystal chandeliers sparkled overhead, illuminating the cream of society as they mingled beneath his carefully orchestrated celebration.This was his night. His triumph. His moment of glory."Mr. Chen," his father approached with a broad smile, clapping him on the shoulder. "You've outdone yourself. This contract with Global Inc has elevated our family beyond anything I could have imagined. We're practically on par with the five top families now!""Practically?" Victor scoffed, taking a sip of champagne. "Give it six months, father. We'll surpass them entirely."His father chuckled indulgently. "Such confidence. I like it."Victor's smile faltered slightly as his mind wandered to Katarina. He'd been forced to hand her back to Vanessa Sterling without ever getting what he truly wanted. The thought still burned in his gut like acid. H
