"Guys, what are you doing here?" The sudden, sweet call in the tense room was like a melody, instantly turning all heads and calming the stormy air.

They all turned toward the source, beholding a vision of goddess beauty with luxury clothes.

A woman with her long, wavy hair cascading over her shoulders, her movements radiated grace and elegance. Her smile, warm and inviting, seemed to thaw even the iciest demeanour, carrying with her an autumnal aura.

"Miss Sophia," Lucas stammered, hastily releasing Alex's collar as everyone, trying to get a good side of Sophia, returned to their chairs.

Sophia Deneuve, in her twenties, was the golden apple of the wealthy Deneuve family, the CEO of Deneuve Hotel, and top 3 goddess in the Blackwood City.

"Hello, guys," Sophia's melodious voice dissolved the tension, her elegant floral perfume lingering, enchanting everyone present.

"Hi, Miss Sophia," the men responded, their faces lighting up with an almost foolish delight. To them, Sophia was like an

    “What’s impossible?” Sophia asked with disbelief."A friendship between a man and a woman will never work out," Alex said, his fingers flying over the keyboard as he finished his last obligation to others."Women will try to use men for free, and men will fight to enter a woman's bed."“And Sophia Deneuve, I’ve gotten too close to understand you. You're just going to use me to fight for your ambition. I'm not interested in that game.”Sophia struck her most charming pose, opening up her shirt slightly and placing one leg in front of Alex, showcasing the perfect curves of her body. “Don’t you think I’m pretty?”“Move away,” Alex pushed her back without a second glance and took a ruler from the table to put in his box. “We both know your charm never work on me.”Alex had grown up in the Royal Castle, surrounded by thousands of beauties trying to sneak into his bed every day.He had become immune to these types of seduction.“Damn, how can my charm never work on you?” Sophia said, frustra

    Meanwhile, Alex finished his last job and gathered his personal belongings from his table drawer: basic construction tools like rulers, hammers, and miscellaneous gear, all acquired with his hard-earned salary.They were inexpensive, but he saw them as keepsakes for reminiscent of his incognito days.“Alex, if I get fired, I’ll look for you,” said Lucas angrily.“Just you wait, I will never let you off,” stated Jack.“I might take some workers to hit you if you dare to report me,” threatened Peter.Alex turned a deaf ear to all of them. "For him, they're all finished. Why bother with them anymore?"His basic smart wrist device began to vibrate softly, signaling an incoming call.When he saw it was from Sophia, he moved to find a quiet place to take the call."What final assistance can I provide for you, Miss Sophia?" Alex inquired, intending to dispose of this smart device on the aircraft along later with all his connections in this city.However, instead of a direct reply, all Alex co

    Alex burst into the room, eyes ablaze, catching Luster red-handed in his deceit. His hand was already on Sophia’s body."Alex!" Luster sprang up, attempting to distance himself from Sophia. His guilt gnawed at him, but he masked it with feigned anger. "How dare you!!!""How dare I what?" Alex advanced, seizing Luster by the neck of his shirt and yanking him upward with his left hand."What are you doing? I'm calling the police." Luster's face paled, twisted by fear."Great, call them. Tell them you're poisoning Sophia!""I am not," Luster protested.Alex, seeing Sophia in disarray, becomes furious."Lying through your teeth," Alex punched, his right fist connecting with Luster's face, causing his nose and lips to bleed."Now, tell me who ordered you to poison Sophia?"Luster, arrogantly, retorted, "You're finished, Alex. You're messing with someone powerful. You're going to regret this."Alex, filled with anger, throws another punch, to his eyes, "You better start talking!"But then, r

    Alex checked on Sophia, noticing her emotions were in turmoil. Her face flushed red as the poison began to take hold, igniting her desires uncontrollably.He glanced at his watch, realizing he had only five minutes before the poison would begin to affect her brain. It would be too late to seek help elsewhere.Sophia, driven by the potent toxin, lunged at Alex and kissed him with desperate hunger. “I need you!” she gasped, her clarity fading fast.With a resigned sigh, Alex knew he had no choice but to act swiftly to save her.What would happen, would happen.He quickly unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a well-defined torso, his muscles taut under the strain.Opening his clothes became a struggle as Sophia, driven by primal instinct, continued to kiss and cling to him fervently."Quick, Alex! I can’t hold back any longer," Sophia pleaded breathlessly.Alex just ripped of Sophia shirt and pants. Guided her to the bed.“You fucking sly fox!” Alex slammed and pinned her on the bed. “Don’t yo

    "Are you sure we are going to get our marriage certificate today?" Sophia joyfully inquired as they finally reached the parking area."You ask once again, I cancel it!" Alex, irritated, stepped out of the car.Sophia giggled as she stepped out, quickly catching up to Alex and hugging his arm, smiling happily. "Honey, please wear your smile; it's our special day."The government agency in Blackwood City functioned as a comprehensive service center for all government-related documents.Alex found it ironic that he returned to the same location where he had filed for divorce just a day earlier, now seeking a marriage certificate."We need two witnesses for your marriage certificate." the officer asked as they sat in the office."Wait," Alex walked soullessly to the divorce department.The security guard stopped him. "Hey, what brings you back here? Looking to cancel your divorce? You can’t!""Actually, I'm getting married today," Alex responded with a bit irritated."No way!" exclaimed th

    Luster nursed his hot coffee, the steam mingling with the pain radiating from his black eyes, broken nose and swollen lips. The door suddenly banged against the wall with such brutal force, causing him to jump in shock. The scorching coffee spilled onto his clothes and pants, causing burns on his stomach, and penis. Forced him to stand up panickly to cool down his painful burning skin. “Outrageous! Who dares to...!” As he caught sight of Alex entering, a wave of fear from morning encounter washed over him, but he quickly masked it with a defiant stance. “Alex, how dare you kidnap Sophia and hit me. I’ve filed a lawsuit; the police will be here any minute. Enjoy your last moments of freedom.” Alex gave Luster a disdainful look. Considering Luster nothing more than a broken radio spewing nonsense, Alex casually walked to his main chair and sat down, arrogantly propping his feet on the table. Outside, the employees looked in, amazed by Alex’s boldness. Luster's eyes widened in d

    In the eerily stifling silence inside the general manager's office, people still couldn't believe what they had just heard. "Howard," Luster’s face a mask of disbelief, "I have worked for 31 years in this company. You cannot just fire me like this." "Did you try to poison Miss Sophia or not?" Howard asked. "No, I am not!" Luster yelled back, his eyes blazing with anger. "Everyone here knows I didn't harm Sophia. It was Alex who did it." "Right?" Luster turned to the workers, trying to intimidate them with his lingering power. "Lucas, Jack! Tell Mr. Howard that Alex was the culprit!" "Luster," Howard continued, unshaken, "Miss Sophia has recorded everything, and the police already have it." Four police officers entered the office and looked directly at Luster. "Luster, you are under arrest for your illegal actions towards Sophia." "I am not!" Luster tried to flee, but the police quickly tackled him, his face slamming against the floor once more. They handcuffed him swiftly and l

    The Lucas, Peter and another senior manager named Liam entered the meeting room, trailed by a hushed atmosphere of pale faces and fearful glances from the other workers. "Stay safe in there." “We will collect your ash, later,” said the other workers as they know three of them will be fried by Alex as they insulted him so much in the past half year. The three top ranks faced Alex with fear etched on their faces; it tasted so bitter. “Do you know why I am calling you?” Alex inquired inside the meeting room. Liam’s voice trembling desperately, “Sir Alex, I need this job for my family. I have three children in college. Please don’t fire me. I beg you.” His eyes brimmed with tears. “When you fired those workers for no reasons, did you consider that they also have a family to feed?” Alex said. Lucas quickly knelt, pleading, “Sir Alex, I'm begging you. Please, you can cut my salary, but don’t cut off my lifeline. I have five children. It is Luster and Ugor who forced me to insult you

    Baron Leonhard once ruled over five villages, but now, two had already deserted him—broken by famine, crushed under unbearable taxes, fleeing for their lives.The remaining three clung desperately together, their souls shredded thin, teetering on the brink of collapse.Misfortune had etched itself into their bones, and they cursed the day they were born into this forsaken land.Two years ago, life was tough but tolerable; they were poor but not starving, scraping by day to day, always hoping tomorrow might offer something better.Then, without warning, the Baron emerged from shadows unknown, raising taxes with ruthless indifference, draining them dry like a vampire thirsting for blood.The villagers' whispers grew darker, their hatred sharper, praying nightly for the Baron's swift demise—but as cruel fate would have it, evil had a way of outliving hope.Today began as another hollow morning, the fields barren as their stomachs, empty hands grasping at dust.But today was different, to

    “A gift?” Michael Dunsmore burst out laughing, the sound sharp and cutting, echoing through the garden.“Who the hell do you think you are, Alex? Last I checked, you barely had two miserable villages scraping by on dirt and despair. You've borrowed so much money these past two years, I'm amazed you can still afford your own damn underwear!”Michael’s cruel laughter was shared by the surrounding crowd.His confidence was bolstered by the knowledge of his family's immense wealth—the prestigious Dunsmore clan controlled four prosperous villages, making Alex's poverty an easy target.Though Michael stood next to Olivia, his fiancée, his eyes lingered hungrily on Ophelia D’Arcy.Her radiant beauty eclipsed Olivia's entirely, and it burned him deeply to see such perfection bound to someone as worthless as Alex.Two years prior, Ophelia had fallen gravely ill, her delicate life hanging by a thread.It was Alex who stepped in, with knowledge unknown to others, and saved her life.In gratitude

    Alex stepped warily out of the manor's heavy oak door, pausing to take in the bleakness around him.The mansion had long since crumbled into a shadow of its former glory—ivy twisted relentlessly through cracked stone walls, weeds snarled around the iron gates, and the rotting wooden beams creaked mournfully with each gust of wind.He lingered a moment, wondering bitterly when this forsaken place had last seen a friendly hand or a hopeful heart.He moved down the rutted dirt road, flanked by rows of dilapidated houses whose decay mirrored his own dwindling pride.These were remnants of a once-thriving community now rotted to its bones, a decrepit slum echoing Miracle City’s decay, only deeper, darker, more desperate.The villagers watched him from shadowed doorways, gaunt faces streaked with grime and despair.Their eyes widened in fear, mothers dragging their children indoors at his sight."Strange," Alex murmured, unsettled. "What have I done to deserve such terror?"Suddenly, a hagg

The whispers and colors vanished, replaced by white-hot agony stabbing through his skull, relentless as an outlaw’s vengeance.He tried to twist free, claw his way awake, but his body was rigid—paralyzed, trapped beneath an invisible weight.I’m still dreaming, he thought desperately, panic clawing at his chest.Maybe I’ll open my eyes and realize it’s all just another cruel illusion.But the pain was too raw, too sharp—too real.Focus. Just wake up.Each thought slipped through his mind like dust kicked up by desert wind.He drifted, helplessly spinning in a storm of chaos.My head hurt so bad?Am I dying?I need to wake up—now!Slowly, the agony dulled into a brutal, throbbing ache.With sheer will, Alex forced himself upright, gasping like a man dragged from deep water.His blurred vision slowly cleared, revealing a luxurious, beautifully furnished study.He was

    “Die! At last, you pathetic worm—you die by my hand!”Eunuch erupted into a frenzied, chilling laughter as he watched the mangled remains explode from his devastating strike.Bits of flesh splattered grotesquely across the ground. Nothing recognizable remained.“Eunuch!” a voice shouted anxiously from below, laced with unease.“Is everything clear up there?”Eunuch surveyed the carnage meticulously, his eyes narrowing with suspicion.There was nothing—no enemy, no traps—completely contradictory to their expectations of an ambush from Miracle City.Only one man. Alex.“All clear! No one left alive!” he called back confidently.Slowly and cautiously, the outlaw elders emerged, ascending from their shadowy refuge, their wary gazes landing on the grisly spectacle.Finally, the Demon King climbed out, a grim shadow cast across his face.“Who was unfortunate enough to meet this gruesome fate?” Van sneered coldly, his eyes lingering with disdain on the shredded remains.“It was Alex—that arr
