Alex smiled as he watched the gilded invitation card in his hands.
"The Winthrops are holding a birthday party, eh?" He smirked, his eyes turning into two circles of ice.Raz and Tajana, his closest confidants shivered on seeing his murderous expression.It seems that Hilltop city will experience some massacre tonight.This was the reason why he ignored the kids and rushed home.Since he's back, of course he should give them a huge surprise."Find me a very cheap car. It should not be too worn out, but of the lowest grade," Alex said coldly, walking into his suite to prepare for tonight's operation.******Alex drove into Winthrop's classical style ancestral castle.They were the most powerful family in the continent for a reason. They were aristocrats whose long years of history ran deep. They were famous and extremely wealthy trillionaires, the sole royalties of the western world. Alex had traveled down to Hilltop city just to see them and deliver his big gift.Alex silently extended his invitation card to the guard through the window, making the guard frown.Why would someone eligible to get an invitation to the matriarch's birthday party be driving such a cheap toyota?"Are you sure you didn't steal or pick up this invitation from somewhere?" He asked, frowning deeply.Alex chuckled coldly, wondering if his massacre will start from the gates instead of the ruthless family as he had planned."Stealing the invitation is not possible. No one will dare treat Winthrop's invitation lightly. Just scan the code to check if it's valid," the butler said grumpily, walking towards them immediately he noticed the commotion.The machine beeped with a green light, making the guards wallow in confusion.The butler curiously peered into the car, causing his heart to tighten in alarm."Third young master!" He stuttered in shock, making the guards immensely afraid.Others may not recognize him after his transformation in the battlefield, but not butler James.He had literally stayed with Alex since he was a baby.He quickly bowed before him and personally lifted the bar, feeling heartbroken that the once prestigious and promising young master, filled with unending potential, has been reduced to driving a cheap toyota camry.Alex carefully parked his car, the old model toyota camry looked out of place amidst the other expensive cars whose worths ran into millions of dollars.His car only cost five thousand dollars while the cheapest car parked in the garage was priced at eight hundred thousand dollars.He walked confidently into the ballroom where the Winthrops always hold their parties, sitting comfortably in a dark corner , intending to stuff his face with the varieties of expensive delicacies available.The butler watched him worriedly.His cousin and the rest of the family were in attendance, they won't spare Alex for coming back.Besides, only he knew that Karen Winthrop had been sending assassins after Alex, but after the news came that he was in prison, Karen finally relaxed.If he realizes that Alex has been freed, he will definitely intensify his efforts to eliminate him.Soon time for offering gifts came and Alex saw Mathilda, Karen's mother, offer grandma Winthrop an antique vase."Mum, I put in a lot of effort to acquire this Ming vase for ten million dollars. I know you like eastern antiquities," she flattered with a fawning smile.His bark of laughter made the flashlight focus on him.He smiled heartily, chugging down the glass of wine in his hands."What are you doing here, you murderer?" Mathilda roared angrily, upset that Alex ruined her performance."If you want to impress her enough to have her vacate that position for you, and secure the chairman's position for your son, you should put in more effort. Why will you offer her a cheap, fake article when you're here to lobby for favors?" Alex said coldly, making Mathilda blush in shame and fury."A murderer and convicted criminal have no place in the respected Winthrop family. You killed grandpa, and even your own mother when she walked in on you, despite being just seventeen years old. You even killed a pregnant woman after taking hard drugs. How did a stray dog like you find your way in here?" Karen asked coldly, staring murderously at Alex."Someone who fucks his aunt is not qualified to advice me!" Alex retorted, slowly sipping his wine.Karen was immediately shocked and frightened. But being the hardened monster he was, he quickly steeled his face and glowered furiously at Alex."You can eat carelessly, but don't you dare speak carelessly! How dare you slander me in a bid to cover up your crimes?" Karen roared furiously, his eyes spitting fire and hate.But Alex just sat there impassively, ignoring the dog barking before him."Hey! Hey! You shouldn't exchange words with such a disgusting abomination. Let's continue the party. He must be really hungry if he had to come here just to eat. He's family after all, even if he's a murderer. Ignore him and allow him to eat, he's obviously starving." Alex's step sister said, gently patting Karen in a bid to calm him down.Mathilda quickly nodded in agreement, same with the rest of the guests who came to boot-lick Karen, since he was obviously the heir apparent to the powerful behemoth called the Winthrops.Alex, who was the only worthy opponent, proved to be a big disappointment, making everyone detest him.Grandma Winthrop smiled calmly, she was the most dangerous of all. The sly witch wouldn't have survived so long if she didn't have so many tricks up her sleeves.Grandpa Winthrop was upright, but he ended up getting tied to a witch, thanks to falling victim to an arranged marriage.Mathilda quickly bowed before the old woman, telling her how much effort she had to make in her bid to acquire the vase,. once again.Almost immediately, the television set in the ballroom came on, broadcasting an embarrassing clip."That old hag doesn't want to die and allow me to enjoy my moment of glory. She's just like a resilient cockroach, clutching onto life and power with annoying intensity. You said you picked the vase from a roadside stall? Well, someone as evil and useless as she is doesn't deserve anything good from me. Just have this two thousand dollars for your trouble. Wow! It looks like the real deal! These potters are getting better at this. Why buy an antique for millions when I can get a lookalike for free?" Matilda cackled, examining the vase in her hands.Everyone was immediately confused, is the vase indeed fake?However, the video seems to have more dirty packages, making everyone's eyes fixed to it.

THE MAN CALLED GOD
“Ariel, take and leave. The kids should be preserved. I will stay with Hera and Luz to continue the defense.” Yu Xue said, tightening her hand on her weapon. “Don't be stupid. Kaiser is still young and can't live without his mom. Leave now or I tie you up!” Luz barked, his aura intimidating her. “Big sister, young master is right. You need to follow Kaiser. He can't live without parents at his age. Besides, the family needs a mother figure. Luz is the head of the family now in the absence of hubby. You have to listen to him. His plans are good. In that way, we won't lose too much. All hope is not lost. You guys should wait in the basement first. Once it's clear we can't turn it around, you guys can leave.” Hera whispered, patting Yu Xue. Ariel and Aridan dragged her away while Ariella picked up Kaiser. “Emrys, Ikaris, and Raz, go with them. They need powerful cultivators to protect them. Tajana, Dolion, Shadow, madam Hera and the rest, stay with me to defend the base. At least, the
THE SIEGE; BATTLE OF TITANS FINALE
“What's wrong?” Alex asked, walking into the house. He was in one of the labs working when he heard the commotion in the house and Bing Yu Xue crying. He made his way to the front and his heart skipped multiple beats. Ariel was lying on the sofa with purple veins visible on his body. His eyes had turned white and he was changing into an unknown beast. “They were just on their way back after going to Food Haven when a group of powerful evil cultivators appeared, trying to kidnap Ariel. But they were unable to do so because he was strong and couldn't be easily taken away. They used poison to overpower him, just before Luz and I arrived at the scene. He instantly became like this. This is soul devouring poison which was enhanced with a curse. Luz said there was no cure. That's why…” Aridan muttered. Bing Yu Xue slapped Alex at that moment, surprising everyone. “Big sister just died because of you, and now her only son is like this. Outside everyone calls you god but you're jus
DOLION'S RETURN
“The identity of Lord Dracula has been exposed. He's none other than Alexander Winthrop, the former heir who was kicked out. This grand reveal happened after the Winthrop family suddenly met with tragedies, with lots of the members choosing to commit suicide after all that was revealed. It was said that they killed Lord Dracula's wife, making him go crazy and order their destruction. But is this right? Why not handle it legally instead of killing? Is Lord Dracula losing control? Is he going crazy? Having all that power without control will only have a negative effect. Let's hear from the audience.” “Although Lord Dracula was harsh, but there were evidence that the affected members were engaged in different crimes. He would have still punished them even without them killing his wife. Besides, what man will keep silent after such a thing? Unless he doesn't love the woman or have enough power to protect her.” “Um, Lord Dracula has always protected the masses. A little mistake won't ov
YOU'RE A USELESS FATHER
Alex stood with Eleanor in his arms and immediately disappeared, going back to his house. Ikaris and his team, who were waiting outside, swooped in and rescued the people being held. The remnants of the evil group, like guards, were also quickly disposed of. Shadow led another group to the various camps/ lab which Nicanor was using for his illegal research. It was comparatively easy because Alex had killed off the top powerful members of the organization when he went berserk. Even if the goddess finds a body to possess and returns, rebuilding her power won't be that easy. ***** Alex appeared before the mansion with Eleanor in his arms, Bing Yu Xue, Aridan, Raz, Tajana and the kids were outside waiting for them. Tajana, Luz and Ariel were listening to the battle through their headset connected to the control tower. So they heard everything that happened. “How is big sister?” Bing Yu Xue whispered rushing forth. “Get out of my way!” Alex roared, shocking everyone. Even the pla
NO REGRETS; I STILL LOVE YOU
Alex kicked open the door and entered the warehouse. His heart was shaking, and he had felt sick ever since he called the men at Food Haven and discovered that indeed, Eleanor went to meet a client and never returned. He slowly moved forward into the modified warehouse, keeping his ears open for any ambush. The warehouse looked ordinary to the eyes, but Alex could tell it was a detached space right away. He had barely walked deep into the warehouse when he saw Eleanor tied up in a chair. Both her limbs were bound to the chair, and her mouth was held with a tape, her eyes blindfolded. There were bloody marks all over her body, fresh blood steadily dripped down from her right hand, and there was a huge bump on her temple, alongside brusises and blood patches. “It has only been a few hours yet they tortured her to this state.” He muttered in horror, taking a step forth. A red line suddenly appeared before him, stopping him from advancing. At once, he looked up and saw Nicholas ho
KIDNAPPED
“What happened?” Alex whispered, turning to him. “We just received a message telling you to appear in a location within one hour, or else they will send your woman's body to you. That was what the message said.”Alex frowned. “Kaiser and his mom are still inside, right?” He whispered, watching them nod.“Then tell them not to go out for some time. Wait, Ariel, where's your mom?” Alex suddenly asked, the relief he felt a second ago had disappeared without warning. “Um, she went out early in the morning to Food Haven. Since the new wine company was launched with the mysterious wine, Food Haven's orders has drastically multiplied. Also, mom has expanded to other countries and has four branches altogether. So, she's pretty busy nowadays. She should be in Food Haven, getting work done.” Ariel whispered with a proud smile, happy that his mom achieved so much in just a few years. Alex's contributions cannot be over looked, especially in terms of the recipes and training of cooks. Even the
