The Indestructible Alexander Chapter 43
Inside the cold temperature of Royal Jewel Co., everyone seemed frozen.Arisa's face turned pale, and the supervisor, usually vibrant and commanding, seemed to shrink, her eyes darting around in search of an escape.The customers in the store were stunned into silence, all except for the manager, who was visibly panicked."Why are all of you still standing around like dolls? The General Manager will arrive in five minutes. Please, guide the customers out now," he instructed in urgency."Do you want to be fired?"Suddenly, the shop attendants sprang into action, bowing politely."Honorable customers, it seems there is an emergency and an important matter to address. We are sorry, but we cannot serve you at this moment."Alex stood still, seemingly indifferent to the chaos around him, continuing to look at the jewelry as the manager bowed deeply before him, acting as his personal attendant.Some customers' faces had turned pale; some hastily exited, while the smarter ones approached Ale

Inside the Royal Jewel Co., Victoria stood in shock, two days at Blackwood had rattled her more than a year in the capital had.She gazed at the row of jewelry outside the display, with prices ranging from one million to five million dollars, while the most expensive piece was tagged at $9,999,999.When she overheard Alex ask, ‘Sophia, do you want to take everything here?’Unable to hold her silence, she blurted out, “Alex, you may have saved a royal family, but there are limits of everything. Don't squander recklessly.”Sophia was looking at Alex, wanted to say something, but before she could, Alex has said, “Sophia, I am just a poor man, without anything…”The General Manager, Ivan, twitched a bit listening to that bullshit, but he didn’t dare say anything.Alex continued, “When I see other husbands with the means to buy their lovely wives jewelry, I feel so saddened that I cannot buy you any jewelry to wear.”“With my hardships and risking my life in war, I saved the royal member a

The chill of the sharp wind was nothing compared to the cold stare Alex received from the old man in front of him, his father-in-law.Telling the truth he only needed two seconds to break the old man's bones, and what he thought was his greatest block.But was it morally right to hit your own father-in-law?"Father-in-law, why do you want that man to be your son-in-law? Am I not good enough?"Tommy chuckled. "Alex, you really are thick-skinned, aren’t you? Do you know who that man is? He is James Wellington, the first rank family with total assets of 10 billion dollars.""Even we Deneuves only have about 100 million dollars," Tommy mocked Alex. "Can you imagine what will happen to Sophia if she marries into a first-class family? Everyone will be happy, including her mother and me.""Father-in-law," Alex gazed at him seriously, his eyes filled with determination."I may not come from a first-rank family, but I am from an S-rank family—a royal family. Don’t you think that is enough to e

Under the blue sky and wide horizon, where the skyscraper buildings were towering, Alex stood on the penthouse balcony. He gazed down at everything, his hair tousled by the wind.“Let’s start by accusing the Wellington family of having connections with the Drakonia Federation, our enemy country,” Alex said to Lavinia. “How much time do we have to verify the truth?”Lavinia replied, “If they are accused, we can freeze their entire assets for three months for search and investigation, even if they’ve done no wrong.”Alex scoffed, “It’s impossible for a big company to not have even a speck of dirt. If we search thoroughly, we will have plenty of time to uncover their deep-rooted dirt and bury them alive with the dirt.”"Lavinia, inform everyone that the Supreme Leader suspects espionage by the Wellington family. Deploy rapid response military and police units from across Blackwood to freeze all their assets immediately."“Roger, sir.”“Go get all their family members and throw them into

Inside the penthouse, one policewoman was calming Sophia in another bedroom.Meanwhile, outside on the balcony, a police officer drew his handgun and pointed it at Tommy Deneuve through the glass door."Sir, Please unlock the door, or I'll have to shoot you," the officer warned sternly.Tommy's face turned pale, and he tremblingly opened the door.The policeman looked at him sharply. "I received a report that you, as the father, collaborated with James to harm your own daughter."Tommy’s expression was one of sheer terror as the policeman struck him on his face. "What a messed-up family! You are under arrest and will be in jail for at least ten years.""No, please don't," Tommy begged, his voice thick with fear of the consequences.Alex walked in and asked, "Where is my wife?""She's in the bedroom on the right side, Sir," the officer replied.Alex walked to the bedroom and found Sophia with the policewoman, who glanced at Alex as he entered and then quietly left the room, giving them

At the high-end country club in Blackwood City, a group of Sophia's and Victoria's college classmates had reserved a section for their reunion event.Initially, it was supposed to be a small gathering reunion for locals from Blackwood and around, but once the news spread through their classmate group’s chat, almost 85% of them decided to attend the impromptu reunion, even if it meant flying for two or three hours to Blackwood."Blackwood City will be the place where economic development will soar," one man declared. "This is the perfect time to invest in it."“Of course,” Added the other, "The Empire will spend hundreds of billions of dollars over the next five years on city development. All the land and real estate prices will skyrocket. If we don't come here to seek business opportunities, where else should we be?""You are right," a woman chimed in, "my parents told me to ask Sophia if we can make connections with Total Construction; they've secured a $500 million contract for this
The Indestructible Alexander Chapter 49
The club's atmosphere suddenly turned awkward as Ravenna appeared, clearly intent on looking down on Sophia by mocking her husband’s low status.Every classmate there was aware of Ravenna's envy and her efforts to outshine Sophia.Whenever Ravenna had a chance to score points against Sophia, she never missed it, but usually, Ravenna lost miserably, 10 out of 10 times.Now, she was eyeing Alex with her eagle eyes, determined not to miss this chance to outshine Sophia for the first time.“Jack!” Ravenna yelled to the man who was fencing in a nearby area.One of the players, a burly man, abruptly utilized his strength to lunge at his opponent, causing them to stumble. Sporting a smug grin, he removed his fencing mask, tossed it aside, and confidently approached Ravenna.“What’s up, my dear?” Jack came to hug Ravenna, his arm around her shoulder showing off his domination over her.He flashed a cheeky smile, like a thug proud of his own coolness.“Let me introduce Jack to all of you,” Rav

In the chilly night air, Jack grinned widely, keeping secret from everyone that he had been a fencing champion in high school.Nobody could beat him in fencing; he was sure of it.Now, he had the chance to display his skills in front of Sophia and Victoria, whom he regarded as the most beautiful girls he had ever seen.He quickly made a bet. "No problem, if you want to make a fool of yourself. But I don't need you to bark if you lose, since I already know you're poorer than Ravenna's dog, who even has its own house."Jack turned his gaze to Sophia. "If you lose, just make sure your wife serves me well for one night."Sophia's classmates already disliked Jack due to his bad attitude. Now, after listening to Jack’s nonsense, their emotions rose to a new high.One of them yelled, "You bastard, what do you think of this place?"Another said, "Do you think this is your nightclub where all women can be treated like your Ravenna?""Enough, you're not welcome at this reunion," one declared."

Ophelia D’Arcy's voice sliced through the tense air like sharpened ice, her gaze colder than frostbite as she snapped, “I'm sorry, Grandpa Carrillo, but I don’t recall ever needing your help. And watch your filthy mouth! You're old enough to have grandchildren who are my friends—don't you have a shred of dignity left?”Robert Carrillo stood there stunned, his jaw hanging slack in disbelief.Rage and confusion battled across his wrinkled face. “Ophelia, I’m doing you a favor! Why are you still defending this worthless fool? Wake up and see reality—yes, I'm older, but I have wealth that could drown this pathetic bastard. What could he possibly offer you?”Alex Leonhard’s eyes flashed dangerously as he seized a glass from the table and hurled its icy contents straight into Robert's startled face.Dripping with chilling menace, Alex warned softly, “Better wake up, old man. Consider that a kindness—if I'd struck you with my hand, you’d already be dead.”“You insolent bastard!” Robert sputt

Looking at her parents, who were mercilessly ridiculing Alex Leonhard, Ophelia D’Arcy let out an exasperated sigh. Her voice, trembling with emotion yet fiercely determined, interrupted the mockery.“Dad, Mom, stop blaming Alex for everything. It was my decision. I just can't bear seeing our family mocked and humiliated any longer.”“Haven’t we endured enough shame all these miserable years?"Her voice softened slightly, eyes distant with a glimmer of uncertain hope."Besides, grandmother won't accept any more excuses this time. Someone has to step up to the challenge. Who knows? Maybe fortune will finally smile upon me.”Ophelia’s mother, incredulous and visibly panicked, blurted out harshly, “Have you lost your mind?”“Even if your grandmother herself crawled on her knees, begging at their gates, they wouldn't even glance her way! You’ll bring nothing home but disgrace!”Her father's eyes hardened as he snapped sharply, “Ophelia this time you made a mistake.”From the sidelines, Ale

Ophelia nearly leaped from her seat in shock, her eyes bulging wide as she whispered harshly, "Alex, have you gone completely mad? It’s utterly impossible! The Golden Guild would never partner with an insignificant family like ours!"But Alex merely smiled, calm and unnaturally confident, his voice steady as he whispered persuasively, "Relax, Ophelia. You’re always saying I’m nothing more than a jobless fool. So why not let this fool try?”“I'll prepare the proposal. It'll carry your name—who knows? Maybe fortune will finally smile upon us.""Alex—" Ophelia hesitated, uncertainty wavering in her voice."Come now, Ophelia," Alex urged more insistently, eyes blazing with unexpected determination."We have nothing left to lose, and everything to gain. At worst, we fail quietly, but at best—we rise triumphantly.”“Besides, look at your grandmother. She’ll erupt into flames if no one steps up."Ophelia felt herself slipping into resignation—after all, they were already at the bottom.What

“Fine,” Alex exhaled deeply, the weight of guilt hidden beneath his stoic exterior. “Exactly how much is this damned debt?”“Half a million,” Peter replied tersely.“And?” Alex pressed impatiently.“I've settled them all. I refuse to attend university while people whisper that I still owe money.”With a dramatic flourish, Alex swung his bag onto the table, swiftly drawing out half a million dollars in crisp bills and slamming them down.Peter and Yuri stared, mouths agape.“Take this cash and get yourselves to university immediately!”“Where did you get this money?” Yuri gasped, eyes wide with disbelief.“I won it gambling,” Alex smirked devilishly. “Now leave before I gamble it all away again!”Peter snatched the money greedily, gripping it tightly. Yuri paused at the threshold, turning back briefly, whispering softly, “Thank you.”She bolted out into the night.Soon after, Ophelia approached Alex, urgency blazing in her eyes. “Alex, Grandma’s summoned us to the D’Arcy mansion.

“You're right…” Michael whispered hoarsely, his voice dripping with bitter resignation.He dropped his gaze to the floor, unable to meet anyone’s eyes as he imagined the volcanic fury that would soon erupt from his father and his grandfather Baron Dunsmore.He had utterly destroyed their family’s empire in one reckless move.He could already see their grand barony plunging into poverty, spiraling down into disgrace, just like Alex Leonhard’s pitiful house."I—I have to get home. Immediately," Michael stammered, dread gripping his heart like an iron fist.In no time at all, scandalous whispers stormed through the streets of Haventon, spreading faster than wildfire—The Golden Guild had brutally expelled the proud Dunsmore family.Rumors flew thick and vicious, speculation rife with venom.Though no one knew exactly what grave sin had provoked the Guild’s wrath, it was clear the Dunsmores had committed an unforgivable transgression.Overnight, their vast fortune shriveled, their lofty st

Jessica Golden hadn't built her towering reputation in Haventon City by luck alone.Her renown as a shrewd, commanding businesswoman preceded her, enhanced by an enchanting charm that masked the steel beneath her velvet exterior.At an astonishingly young age, Jessica had already ascended to the role of head branch at the Haventon branch of the Golden Guild—a testament to her exceptional prowess.Her influence ran deep—an invisible architect behind the meteoric rise of the Haventon branch, which now stood as a gleaming beacon among the many others branches scattered across the country and viscounties, each overseen by one of Count Golden’s other ambitious sons or daughters.Yet, this city—this prized jewel called Haventon—was unquestionably Jessica’s domain.Jessica's confident composure briefly faltered upon seeing Alex Leonhard.The young man's striking looks, combined with his astounding ability to concoct miraculous pills, left her momentarily breathless.Her trusted managers had

Inside the Golden Guild.The vastness struck Alex like a cathedral of wealth—marble pillars soared skyward, each one gleaming under a vaulted ceiling etched with ornate carvings.The hall buzzed like a gilded hive, sleek-suited tellers moving behind golden-trimmed counters with surgical precision.A cool blend of polished oak and metallic sharpness filled the air, mingling seamlessly with the rhythmic murmur of transactions and the musical clink of coins exchanged.Alex stepped forward, the soft click of his boots echoing defiantly on the glossy marble floor.His eyes darted through ornate signage until they landed decisively upon a gleaming plaque: "Item Appraisal & Acquisition."Three counters lay before him, each more exclusive than the last.The first brimmed with commoners clutching cheap trinkets, buzzing impatiently with bargains under hundred credits.The second hosted more composed merchants, quietly guarding wares of moderate value.Yet it was the third counter, isolated at

The next morning, Alex awoke at his usual early hour, greeted by the startling silence of the noble household.He was struck by the realization that these privileged creatures never rose before the sun had fully taken its throne in the sky.Shaking off his surprise, Alex swiftly prepared breakfast, careful to include dishes lavish enough for his wife and, inevitably, his demanding mother and father-in-law.His eyes fell upon the old bicycle gathering dust in the storage room, which, with just a few deft adjustments, was ready once again for action.After an hour-long journey that tested his endurance, Alex finally arrived at the imposing gates of The Golden Guild.He carefully parked the bicycle at the edge of the opulent parking lot, just as a gleaming luxury car slid arrogantly into the spot directly opposite him.Alex's heart sank as he watched a sharply-dressed couple emerge from the luxury vehicle.The man wore an impeccably tailored suit, exuding wealth and superiority, while th

Alex hurried toward the front door, but before he could even walk down the steps, Ophelia stormed inside, trailed furiously by her mother, Michelle, and her father, Justin.The trio burst into the manor as if it were their own, arrogance dripping from their every move—clearly, this wasn't their first invasion.Instantly, the manor filled with blistering tension, a tempest charged with scorn and disdain.Michelle’s shrill voice sliced through the silence, her words dripping venom." Ophelia you better divorce your husband. Alex Leonhard is worthless sack of shame! He is a stain upon our family name. Divorce him, Ophelia—now! Or your grandmother will toss you straight out of the D’Arcy nobility like garbage!"Ophelia stood unmoved, her voice cool, iron beneath velvet, "If that's her choice, I'll simply live here with Alex. He’s my husband, a Baron; my place was always at his side."Michelle’s face twisted with disgust, her eyes blazing."You stubborn fool! What’s so alluring about this
