Chapter 318
The father sprinted desperately toward his young boy, eyes wild with fear and tears streaming down his face.As he reached his son, his heart nearly stopped—the pavement was scarred by bullets, each hole barely a hair's breadth from his son's fragile body.“He's alright, honey!” he shouted, relief shaking his voice. “She missed—our boy is safe!”He clutched his wife tightly, their bodies trembling in shared gratitude.“What?” Clarissa shrieked in disbelief.Fury surged through her veins, and she raised her gun again, merciless eyes locked on the helpless child.Instantly, the father shielded his son, spreading himself protectively. “If you're gonna kill my boy, you'll have to go through me first.”Clarissa sneered viciously. “Fine by me. Cleaning out trash is always a pleasure.”She squeezed the trigger without hesitation.The father clenched his eyes shut, bracing himself for the piercing pain. But instead of death, a violent explosion erupted from Clarissa's gun.The weapon shattere

Alex pressed harder, desperately fighting to save the little boy whose life hung by the thinnest thread.Sweat streaked his face as he whispered reassurance. "Stay with me, kid. You're stronger than this."The bodyguard jabbed a gun directly into Alex's temple. "Doc, I warned you—fix our Madame first, or you’re done."Alex didn’t flinch. His voice came cold and fierce."Pull the trigger, and your precious madame can find herself another doctor. I’m not leaving this child."Alex tore open the boy's shirt, revealing a horrific wound.Blood had slowed but still oozed, darkening the asphalt. The child’s breaths came in shallow gasps.Alex reached into his pocket, pulling out the miracle pills.With a steady hand, he gently placed one in the boy's mouth."Hold on. You're gonna make it."The boy’s mother watched helplessly, tears flooding her cheeks, her voice shaking with prayer."Oh God, please spare my son. Please."Beside her, the father fell to his knees, pleading with the bodyguard."

The next morning, sunlight splashed through the cracked windows as Alex unlocked the door to his clinic.His eyes narrowed sharply at the sight—a battered, bloodied figure sprawled unconscious at his doorstep.Alex's pulse quickened as he knelt beside the man, turning him over gently, only to stare in disbelief."Jaxon Creed?" Alex muttered, astonishment darkening his features. "What the hell happened to you?"He studied the bruised face, swollen and marred with fresh wounds.Jaxon Creed, the top knight from Chicago—this was no ordinary beatdown.With cautious strength, Alex hoisted Jaxon over his shoulder and carried him carefully inside, laying him on the examination bed.As Alex assessed the injuries, his trained eyes hardened—gunshot wounds, shattered bones, nerve damage so severe it made his stomach twist.Whoever did this wanted Jaxon crippled for life or dead.Alex drew a deep breath, determination steadying his hands. Healing this man would take time, but he trusted his skills
Chapter 315
Alex sat on the very edge of the rooftop, legs dangling over the ledge, a half-empty glass of wine resting in his hand.Alone, high above the sleeping city, he was lost in his thoughts as the night wrapped around him.The moon hung low, casting silvery shadows that danced across the concrete beside him.Far below, the homeless huddled around small fires, their laughter and chatter drifting faintly upward.Even with their hardships, they seemed content, savoring simple moments together.Yet Alex stood isolated, tormented by indecision.Life seemed straightforward enough—people ran from pain and chased after happiness.But when wounds reopened again and again, each scar dug deeper into the heart, turning memories into haunting nightmares.He sighed deeply.Could there really be happiness with Sophia Lancaster?He used to believe so. But every time he reached for her, he came away more battered, more broken.Just when he found the strength to walk away, she’d whisper a promise of happine
Chapter 314
After the fierce chaos of the battle subsided, Alex returned to the clinic just as midnight's shadows stretched across the small building, yet its lights blazed like a beacon against the dark.Pushing through the door, Alex caught sight of Sophia Lancaster.For once, her usual icy demeanor melted into warm laughter as she chatted comfortably with Josephine.It was an odd sight, unsettling yet fascinating.Josephine noticed him first and rose swiftly, her face lighting up warmly. "Alex, you're back! Let me fix you some supper—""Thanks, but I already ate," Alex replied with a faint smile.His gaze shifted cautiously toward Sophia, his stance immediately guarded as if expecting an ambush.Sophia caught the sudden change in his expression and frowned deeply."Why the cold stare, Alex? You're warm as sunshine when you look at Josephine, but with me, you act like I'm about to bite. That actually stings."Alex stared at her, utterly confused.Had she hit her head? This woman, who usually gl
Chapter 313
The arena fell deathly silent. Jaxon knelt in the dusty center, head bowed like a penitent sinner.He finally lifted his gaze, jaw tight with reluctant respect.“You're one hell of a fighter,” he growled, voice rough with pride and defeat. “I yield.”“What the hell did he say?” gasped someone from the audience.Murmurs exploded around the arena like wildfire, disbelief sparking through the crowd.“He hasn't even thrown a punch! He walked to the arena just to kneel? Did the Kingstons pay him off?”Zane surged to his feet, eyes blazing with fury.“What kind of cowardly shit is this, Jax? A Chicago Lord never bows down! Kill the damn janitor now!”“Shut your mouth, Zane!” Jaxon snapped back fiercely, eyes ablaze.“There's honor in knowing when you're beaten. He's the real deal. If he’d wanted, I’d be lying dead in the dirt right now.”The crowd froze, trying to decipher the bitter truth hidden in Jaxon’s eyes.Zane’s face twisted in rage.“Bullshit! You didn’t even fight him! Are you ser
