2024-05-09 00:10:17Some of the classmates on James's side walked to crowd around Alex with angry face.
"James," one of the men, eager to suck up to James, said. "Just give us a command, and we will handle him. Even though he is ex-military, I won't be afraid."
James's face turned joyful as he figured about six males supported him; he believed Alex couldn't fight seven people including him. "Alex, I will show you who I am!"
Suddenly, his device started ringing. He picked it up happily and quickly. "Father! Have you put him on the wanted list?"
"James," his father said, "listen carefully word by word as I don't want to repeat this anymore."
“Yes?”
"Let the man hit you a few more times. And you must not harm him under any condition. If you dare to do something stupid and harm him, I will kick you out of the Carnegie family and will kill you myself. Do you understand?"<

There is no party without an end. The reunion event soon wrapped up and people began returning to their hotels. Some even took the night flight back to their cities.James Carnegie sat with his friend on the night aircraft. His best friend leaned over and asked, "James, did you really make Alex your big brother?"James tapped his fingers on the armrest of his first-class seat.He was uncertain about Alex, but his father had warned him not to stir up trouble with him.In the dining area earlier, he cleverly chose to address Alex as "big brother" instead of getting hit in front of everyone, which would have been a severe blow to his reputation.In politics, there are no permanent enemies or friends, only permanent interests."Have you got any information about him?" James inquired."He's an ex-construction worker and also an ex-military man with some commendations from his time during the war," his friend added. "But all military honors have their limits."James had just spoken with his

On the night after reunion event, Sophia stood on the balcony of her penthouse, her gaze lost in the city lights below feeling the cold of wind around her hair.It seemed she had a lot on her mind. Alex entered the balcony, two cups of hot ginger tea in his hands, which he placed on the table beside her."What are you thinking about?" Alex asked gently."Alex," Sophia started, unable to contain herself any longer. "About the wedding, my friends are already asking questions. What's on your mind? I can't stop worrying about it."Alex paused, debating whether he should keep the wedding location a secret since the day was fast approaching."Alex, do we have enough money for the wedding? I can help if you need," Sophia offered earnestly.Instead of answering directly, Alex picked up a piece of paper from the table and scribbled down an address and a date."Our wedding will be held here, and everything is already arranged. You don’t need to worry about anything," he assured her, handing her

The next day, at the entrance of the twelfth-floor building."Carlo Gotti," Jerry called out to a man who was once among Sophia’s fans.They had met in a nightclub about three years ago, and Carlo was known both as a playboy and as the Gotti’s mafia family's second son, who's now in charge of overseeing the Gotti’s mafia branch on Blackwood.At that time, Carlo had asked Jerry to help him connect with Sophia.However, since Sophia was at college in the capital city, it never happened. Since then, Jerry had tried to avoid Carlo, as he didn't like being associated with him.But now, he needed Carlo to help him marry Victoria.Carlo glanced at Jerry and then at the beautiful woman by his side."Oh my, goddess, you are so beautiful. You must be an angel from heaven," he exclaimed.Adorned with numerous gold rings and necklaces, and wearing dark sunglasses, Carlo quickly removed his glasses to get a clearer view of Victoria's face and body.He politely took Victoria's hand and kissed it wh

Carlo Gotti laughed harshly. "Come on, Victoria, you can't just cancel things like this. Do you realize I've prepared for 200 people at today’s event? Can you even fathom how much it costs for them to stay here?”“I will pay you,” Victoria retorted, her voice trembling slightly still trying to appear tough. “Just tell me how much you want.”“Come, sit down first. We can talk about the money later. We all friends, for now, give me Alex’s number; let me call him this time.”“I don’t want to.”Carlos stood abruptly and slammed a wine bottle near Victoria’s feet. The glass shattered on the marble floor, and the red liquid spilled around Victoria's feet. "You'd better sit back down while I'm still being polite," he warned.Fear swiftly enveloped Victoria, spreading through her body like a chilling wind. She walked back to the couch.“Be a good girl,” Carlo said forcefully as he took Victoria’s smartphone from her hand and dialed Alex using the recent calls list, this time opting for a vide

Carlo Gutti laughed menacingly, “You will die! You don’t know who you are fighting!”“All dead men are the same in front of me,” Alex retorted, firing a shot at the intercom, which caused a loud buzzing on the other side.He had checked the caller ID on the intercom, clearly marked with '12th floor'. That would be his target.Carlo quickly glanced at the first-floor screen, but it only showed a black screen with the words 'no connection.' As he tried to check the second floor, the screen suddenly went blank.He attempted to contact the people on the second floor, but no one responded to the intercom.While he was still trying to understand what was happening, the third-floor screen also began to fade to black.Carlo knew something must be happening. “Go tell everyone to prepare. We have locked down the elevators, so he must be using the stairs. Tell people to blockade all stair access. Use all our weapons. He may not be alone.”The two bodyguards quickly rushed out.Carlo, controlling

Alex used his inner energy to enhance his vision in the dark room and could see a bit.He walked to Victoria and grabbed her wrist, sending his inner energy to slow the poison's spread and bring her some clarity."Where am I?" she asked, her voice trembling."We're locked in the safe room.""Am I blind?" she asked, panic rising as she realized she couldn't see."No, we're in a closed room, and Carlo locked us in here, waiting for us to die from lack of oxygen.""Who are you?" Victoria suddenly panicked, trying to forcefully pull away from Alex's hand. "Let me go!""If I let go, the poison will spread quickly, and you'll lose your sanity again.""What happened to me?""I think you drank a lust poison that makes you feel intense desire. If you don't have sex in 30 minutes, your blood will rush to your head and destroy your head’s nerves."Victoria slowly remembered everything. "Can you help me?" Victoria asked, desperation in her voice."No, I can only use my energy to slow the poison f

Ten minutes ago.Alex, inside the dark room, had just finished treating Victoria with his manly act. He put Victoria to sleep with his inner energy and dressed her.He glanced at his device to check the time.Before entering the building, he had reported to Lavinia that if he hadn't walked out within an hour, they must send a special force to storm the building.It was still 15 minutes before the special force was to enter.Suddenly, the lights flicked on, and Alex realized someone was trying to enter the room.He hid in a blind spot, waiting for the person to approach Victoria. As the door opened, he waited until the person moved closer to help Victoria.When Alex aimed to shoot, he recognized Jerry Deneuve, his cousin-in-law, and cancelled the shot, opting to knock him out instead.Even he hated this cousin, it was not right to kill a cousin, right?Alex walked out and found Carlo's dead body. This meant all the enemies had been defeated. He contacted Lavinia with his device. "No ne

Inside the council chamber, Alexander led his followers to the right-side meeting room, where a tense discussion was taking place.Christopher and his followers occupied the left-side meeting room.Alexander looked at his followers and asked, “I never ordered the killing of Christopher’s followers. Did any of you do that?”Ivan spoke first, his voice firm, “None of us did it. I think they’re doing it themselves to tarnish your name and find a way to take the throne.”“Yeah,” one of the nobles added, nodding in agreement.“I don’t think it’s a good time to war with Christopher,” another noble interjected. “The Drakonia Federation is waiting for us to show any weakness, and they’ll attack our empire.”“No worries,” Ivan Romanov added confidently. “Just attack Christopher and finish the civil war in a day. They won’t stand a chance with the god of war on our side.”Alexander sighed, contemplating the advice. “Alright. I will only place soldiers on the border city during the war and deplo

Meanwhile, Ophelia stood anxiously in the crowded hall, surrounded by people all impatiently waiting for their appointments.A few guests recognized her right away. Their eyes narrowed with contempt as they leaned toward each other, whispering loud enough for her to hear every cruel word.“Oh look, isn’t that the granddaughter of Viscountess D’Arcy?” one noblewoman said with a sneer, her voice oozing mockery.“The D’Arcy family has one foot in the grave, yet they still shamelessly show up here hoping to grab a piece of the Golden Guild project.”“I heard the old viscountess married her granddaughter off to the poorest baron in Haventon. Pathetic. And now she’s here? Maybe she should be peddling potions in the back alleys instead.”Those bitter words quickly drew attention, and the gathered elite cast scornful eyes at Ophelia, barely hiding their cruel amusement behind silk fans and smirks of mockery.Ophelia tightened her fists till her nails bit deeply into her palms.She muttered so

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
