"Alex," Jasmine nudged him urgently."Quick, how do I respond? This is the first time in my life someone has called me poor."Alex glanced at her. Jasmine Kingston—the wealthiest heiress in Vancouver—had probably never heard that word directed at her."Just smile and say 'thank you,'" Alex suggested calmly."Really?" she asked, eyes wide with feigned innocence."Absolutely. When they go low, we go high."Jasmine turned back to Chris with a graceful smile."Thank you for calling me poor. This is a new experience for me."Chris's face flushed crimson.He slammed his fist on the table. "Are you dense? When someone calls you poor, you're supposed to feel insulted, ashamed!""Why should I feel that way?" Jasmine replied, tilting her head slightly."I'm not poor."Chris, barely containing his frustration, threw his hands up. “You really have no brain, do you?"Jasmine turned to Alex, her gaze curious. "Alex, do you think I have no brain?""Not at all. In fact, I think you're much sharper th

Chris's hands trembled as he stared at Jasmine. If he'd known who she truly was, he would never have dared to insult her—not even with a gun to his head.His mother and grandfather would kill him for destroying their generational wealth.Jasmine Kingston's voice remained steady as she continued, "And for the business partner in our new medical line, we've carefully chosen the Emerson Group as the best fit for us. Please welcome Lily Emerson as our new partner..."The hall erupted in applause.From one table came happiness and uncontained joy, while at the other, murmurs of disappointment filled the air.There were winners and losers, with every family vying for the same prize.Especially Sophia. Her face turned ashen, as if all the blood had drained away.She had paid a hefty $100 million to secure the partnership, and now she had nothing to show for it.The Lancasters wouldn't survive after she had drained all their cash and savings.Even the Biohealth deal she'd secured was headed f

Alex stared at Lyra, choosing not to respond."Fine," Lyra snapped."My father took his shot by siding with the old regime, and my mother backed him all the way. They messed up big time! But I haven't even had my chance yet, and this family mess has ruined it."She leaned in, her eyes pleading. "Don't you think I deserve an opportunity without being tied to my parents' mistakes?"Alex sighed, his reluctance evident. "Fair enough.""Listen, Alex," she pressed."I know Jasmine Kingston is on your side now. Maybe you've charmed her, extracted all the secrets you wanted. But how long can that last? Love is fickle—it changes as quickly as the tides."She watched him intently, searching for a flicker of doubt."You've got wealth now, I can see that. But what happens when love fades? Jasmine might grow bored and cast you aside without warning. You can't put your faith in something as unstable as love.""The money could vanish in an instant, and you'll be right back where you began—back on th

After the kidnapping incident, Jasmine had prepared with enough bodyguards.They stood protectively around her, Alex, Lyra, and the other guests, guiding them to evacuate.As the security team moved to follow their orders, Alex turned sharply to Lyra."Where is Sophia?""She's outside with Chris. He... he hit her."Alex’s jaw clenched, and he halted."You two go first, don’t wait for me."He rushed back to the hall.Jasmine and Lyra continued to evacuate with the others through the back door.Outside, forty men from the Walker family were just getting out of their cars.Chris stepped forward, offering a greeting. "Jerry Roland, my father, asked me to help you."Calvin Walker’s voice was icy. "Where’s Jasmine Kingston?""She’s inside with all the other rich kids," Chris replied, shrugging.Suddenly, the front door slammed shut, and the alarm echoed through Heaven Hall, signaling an evacuation.Calvin’s eyes narrowed."Did you warn them we were coming?" he snapped at Chris."No, I’ve be
The Almighty Dominance Chapter 55
In the center of the grand hall, fifteen terrified guests huddled together—the ones who hadn't managed to escape when chaos erupted.Nearby, five of Kingston's bodyguards lay wounded, their groans of pain underscoring the tense silence.On the Walkers' side, only thirty men remained of the original forty; the rest had fallen during the fierce firefight with Kingston’s guards.“I suggest none of you make any sudden moves,” Calvin warned.“No one has to get hurt. We don’t want to damage our merchandise. Each of you is priceless.”He initiated a video call, turning the camera to focus on Jasmine Kingston among the hostages.“Father, we've secured Jasmine Kingston,” Calvin reported.“Excellent,” Lucas Walker replied.“The police are en route to your location, blocking all roads out. It’s safer to stay put. Use the hostages as leverage.”“Yes, Father.”“We'll use Jasmine to force Alfred Kingston to surrender his position in Vancouver,” Lucas continued.“We're negotiating with him now. Just

“Leader, the police are here,” one of the Walkers informed Calvin urgently.Calvin could already hear the wail of sirens and the amplified voices echoing outside.“Attention inside! Surrender immediately, or we will use force!” the police commanded through their megaphones.He turned to two of his men and pointed at Sophia and Chris.“Take these two to join the other guests,” he ordered.“Have all of them text their parents—each demanding ten million dollars within the next thirty minutes, or we start shooting them.”The guards seized Sophia and Chris, dragging them away as Calvin strode toward the front of the hall.Grabbing the microphone connected to Heaven Hall's sound system, he addressed the authorities outside.“I demand the immediate release of my brother, Ethan the Giant, from prison,” Calvin announced.“Bring him here, or we will execute one hostage every hour.”The officers exchanged grim looks.Ethan the Giant was a notorious criminal, a dangerous individual responsible fo
The Almighty Dominance Chapter 57
Most of the hostages were young, affluent men and women attending Jasmine's debut.Under the stern gaze of the Walkers, they frantically called their families, voices shaking as they explained the dire situation.Calvin Walker demanded ten million dollars from each family in exchange for their safety.Sophia, too frightened to contact her grandfather, decided to call her grandmother instead."Sophia, I've been waiting for your call," Grandma Lancaster answered, her voice bright with joy and anticipation.“I assume we've secured the partnership with the Kingston family, right? Do you want a grand wedding with Chris tomorrow?”Sophia's heart sank, a lump forming in her throat.She took a deep breath. “Grandma, the Emerson family got the partnership. We lost it.”“What do you mean, we lost it?” Lady Lancaster's voice sharpened with disbelief.“We didn't secure the deal with Kingston,” Sophia repeated softly.“But we paid a hundred million! How could we not get it? Did the Emersons offer
The Almighty Dominance Chapter 58
At Heaven Hall, a single word—Execute—turned the room into a graveyard.A sudden, chilling cacophony of shattering glass and bodies hitting the floor echoed through the room.In an instant, all of the Walkers' men—except for Calvin—collapsed, each felled by a single, precise shot.Thirty lives extinguished like candles snuffed out by a sudden gust.Weapons clattered as they slipped from lifeless hands, and their bodies lay sprawled across the marble like puppets with their strings severed.The crowd stood rooted in stunned silence, faces pale and eyes wide, too shocked to react.It seemed the snipers outside had finally taken action.Calvin stared in disbelief at the scene before him.Alex took a step forward."We can always rely on the police, can't we?" he said, even though he clearly knew it was Kingswell who handled things, not the police.Calvin's eyes burned with rage."You bastard!" he snarled, drawing his gun and pointing it at Sophia's head."Stay back, or I swear, you'll only

“Mr. Smith, looks like you’re hell-bent on covering up for your little lapdog, huh?” Alex’s eyes sharpened into slits, simmering with quiet menace.Suddenly, everything clicked into place.It became crystal clear why Hans had strutted around so arrogantly—he had a boss even more corrupt and vile pulling his strings.Just when Alex believed he’d witnessed Hans at his absolute worst, George proved there was a far darker abyss lurking beneath.Rotting trees always collapse from within, and Kingston Pharmaceuticals was clearly infested with poisonous maggots like George and Hans.If these vermin were allowed to thrive unchecked, it would spell doom—not just for quality control, but for every honest worker within the company.They sold medicine that wasn’t even approved for sale—just to stuff their own pockets.They didn’t care if it ruined the reputation of Emerald Elixir.All the millions poured into advertising, all the effort to build something exceptional—shattered by the greed of the

Alex watched the entire fiasco unfold, a weary sigh escaping him like a man resigned to cleaning up another mess.He had no appetite for trouble, yet fate had other ideas.Still, Clara was Sophia's aunt, and family ties had a way of complicating even the simplest matters.Reluctantly, Alex moved toward Clara, his footsteps heavy with irritation as Hans slithered away unnoticed.Leaning closer, Alex warned quietly, "A little advice—don't gamble with this one. Things aren’t always as bright as they seem."Clara spun around sharply, eyes blazing with contempt as she assessed him from head to toe."Who the hell do you think you are, sticking your nose into everyone's affairs? Jealous, huh? It must burn to see someone actually succeeding while you rot in obscurity.”“You've already destroyed Charles’s future and turned him against his own sister. And now you want to sabotage me, too? Keep dreaming, loser!"Alex's eyes flickered with restrained annoyance, a cold smile ghosting his lips."Fi
Chapter 278
Ten minutes later, Charles emerged, a chillingly composed smile etched onto his handsome face, his attire immaculate once more, betraying no hint of the destructive storm he’d just unleashed.But beneath his polished exterior, Charles burned with an insatiable hunger for revenge.He had to triumph this time—especially considering the astronomical losses he’d inflicted upon his mother due to the failed SkinDews venture, which had bled nearly half a billion from their coffers.Charles knew he had to act fast; his financial lifeblood was slipping away.Pulling out his sleek phone, Charles quickly dialed one of the managers from Kingston.His voice was coldly decisive, leaving no room for hesitation: “That offer you gave me—I’ll accept. Meet me immediately in the meeting hall.”The voice on the other end responded hastily, anxiety apparent. “Right away, sir. I’m coming to you.”A few moments later, a lean, cunning-faced man with narrow eyes approached Charles, bowing obsequiously.It was

“Well, well, well—if it isn’t Alex! Tell me, are you seriously hoping to snag a distributor deal with Kingston?”Clara sneered venomously, her cold eyes darting downward at Alex as if he were nothing more than dirt under her designer shoes.Alex casually shifted his gaze toward Charles, his voice edged with mockery.“What’s wrong, Charles? Didn’t you tell your friend here exactly who I am?”Clara turned toward Charles, curiosity mingling with disdain in her narrowed eyes.“Charles, what exactly is this grand position he claims?”“Alex?” Charles erupted into contemptuous laughter, the cruel amusement echoing harshly through the room.“Please! He’s nothing but a worthless piece of garbage! He wormed his pathetic way into Jasmine’s bed, becoming her personal boy toy through deception.”“My little sister was naive enough to hand him the title of Chief Physician at Hilton Pharmacy—nothing more than charity for a parasite.”“I believe he begged Jasmine for the position, just to make himself

“Absolutely not—you don't get to touch my boyfriend!”A fierce voice shattered the tense silence, erupting seemingly out of nowhere, jolting both Sophia and Alex as though lightning had struck."Jasmine?" Alex gasped in disbelief, his eyes widening at the unexpected apparition before him.Without hesitation, Jasmine seized Alex's arm possessively, her emerald eyes blazing dangerously toward Sophia, gleaming with venomous defiance."He's my boyfriend, and you absolutely do not have permission to kiss him. If you insist on waiting for my blessing, prepare yourself—it might come, say, in about a hundred years."Sophia was utterly stunned, paralyzed by Jasmine's sudden and fiery entrance."How on earth are you even here?" Alex questioned, clearly shaken by her sudden arrival.With a pout brimming with indignation and tenderness, Jasmine gently struck his chest—not in anger, but in affectionate reproach."You idiot, I was worried sick about you! I heard Owen was causing trouble and rushed
Chapter 275
Alex recalled vividly that Owen's guards were all lying cold and lifeless in pools of their own blood.“Josephine,” he said, his voice laced with a dark intensity, “when one chooses to walk the shadowed path for too long, they inevitably become the very demons they once feared. Even if he had a shred of decency left, when judgment rains down, he’ll drown in it.”“What are you trying to say?” Josephine’s voice quivered, eyes wide with confusion.“The police already got to them. And given that your so-called kind-hearted bodyguard was standing right alongside Owen, he won't escape the storm that’s coming. The law won’t be merciful.”Josephine’s shoulders sank as she released a weary sigh.“He was supposed to walk away sooner...”Alex softened his tone, compassion mingling with his determination.“Listen, since he tried to help you at the last moment, perhaps we should find his family later and offer them some support. What do you think?”A faint, grateful smile lit Josephine’s face, her

“Get your pathetic face out of my sight, Scarlett! Every time I lay eyes on you, my blood boils a little hotter, and if you linger any longer.”“Believe me, I might just lose control and kill you right here,” Jericho snarled venomously, his hand sweeping through the air like he was dismissing an annoying insect.“Yes, sir…” Scarlett's voice trembled, her pride crushed beneath his harsh words.She bowed deeply, her face etched with pain and shadowed by shame.Turning swiftly, she hurried away, shoulders hunched with humiliation.Inside her chest, dread coiled tightly, eclipsing even her former rage.Scarlett knew better than to entertain any reckless thoughts this time. If Owen Whitman, powerful and untouchable, had met such a brutal end, what chance did someone like her stand?And with Jericho clearly aligned with Alex now, she knew her family could easily be next on the chopping block.Everyone in town knew Jericho Kane was a lunatic, and lately, he'd grown even more unhinged since l
Chapter 273
Jericho Kane couldn't sleep.Anxiety gnawed at him relentlessly, twisting his stomach in knots.He had explicitly warned his helicopter pilot to avoid any confrontation with Alex, praying silently that no trouble had ensued.But at that very moment, a violent roar pierced through the night air—the unmistakable thunder of helicopter blades slicing the darkness.His pulse quickened as he rushed outside.The chopper descended heavily onto the square, sending dust and leaves spiraling chaotically.The pilot stumbled out, his face ghostly pale, eyes wide with terror.“What happened? Where is Mister Alex?” Jericho demanded urgently, grabbing the pilot's trembling shoulder.The pilot struggled to form words, each one choked out in panic.The more Jericho heard, the more his blood ran cold, a bone-deep dread settling over him like a suffocating fog."Promise me you'll keep everything you've seen tonight a secret," Jericho ordered sharply."Believe me, sir, I want nothing more than to erase th

“I have the Heaven Root,” Alex sneered coldly, his eyes gleaming like shards of ice as he held Josephine protectively.“If you dare risk your pathetic life for it, then come and claim it!”Yorick's eyes narrowed venomously. He could summon his soldiers to shoot Alex into oblivion—but the Heaven Root was far too precious.A single stray bullet could shatter it.“I'll give you one chance,” Yorick growled, barely controlling his rage.“Hand over the Heaven Root. Or we settle this the hard way.”“Hard way?” Alex chuckled mockingly, confidence radiating from every word.“My one leg alone would be enough to crush you. Step forward—if you dare.”With Josephine tightly clasped to him, he knew he could shield her from any attack. Letting her go was not an option.“Excellent!” Yorick barked, his voice dripping with sarcasm and fury.“If you don’t value your pathetic existence, don’t blame me for your miserable fate. soldiers! Forget the guns—use knives! Sever the limbs of this insolent fool! I
