The two prizefighters stared at each other before letting down the old man to face the approaching Grace."Get out, now!" she shouted.Both had expressions of surprise, but they bowed respectfully and stepped out of the room.Grace Ainsworth's body was now shaking with sincere rage as she was face-to-face with Master Darryl again."Who the hell are you? Did you retire from the border military?"She had already investigated the man's background, but there was nothing significant about him."I'm really a nobody, Ms. Ainsworth.""Spare me that nonsense! Why would high-ranking Sorevia Military officials invest in your business?" Grace demanded, her voice rising.Master Darryl simply smiled. "It's not my business, Ms. Ainsworth. That's what I have called you here to explain. I'm only the face of the Elorix Hotel enterprise; my boss is associated with the border military. Now that these military personnel are investing in this business, don't you think they would investigate if anything wer

Meanwhile, at the Elorix Hotel, Grace Ainsworth stepped out of an elevator on the top floor, the two prizefighters following closely behind and her special assistant, Andrew, at her side."So, the Shadowless Ghost Duo are really dead and Julian Wexler is crippled for life?" Grace spoke with elegance as they moved down the hallway together.The Ainsworth Communication Corporation had a wide network that covered virtually all of Brooklyn Heights' private and public industries.They would always be the first to hear whispers from assigned sources and whistleblowers who sold information for cash.This way, the Ainsworth were always on top of every piece of information traveling through the city."Yes, madam," Andrew bowed respectfully. "From what I hear, the Blackwoods haven't spoken on what their reaction would be."She scoffed and turned her face to the side. "What else can they do? Black Ghost and White Ghost were the ace cards of the Blackwoods. If they're dead, they'll just have to l

Julian's mother, who was seated to the side, started to massage his head and say, "Child, you don't know what you are talking about. What does this have to do with Elijah Langston?""He came last night, Mother. He really came. I want to die—I want to die right now..." Julian started to cry even louder, embracing his mother's arm like a child."He did this to you? Didn't Master Timothy arrange our experts and even hire more from the underground?" Adam Wexler clenched his fist angrily. He really didn't think that the insolent expert would make an appearance at the mansion, but they left an ambush in place to deal with him if he did."They couldn't stop him. I don't even know if Master Timothy is alive. I want to die!" He continued to cry louder.The patriarch's face fell and he was at a loss for words.The elderly doctor quickly told him, "Someone else was brought in with him last night. He suffered a lot of internal injuries and his major joints were broken beyond repair, but he is ali
Chapter 137
At a General Hospital somewhere in Brooklyn Heights, the Wexlers forced themselves into an ICU ward under the leadership of the patriarch, Adam Wexler.They stood in the room; their faces were as white as sheets of paper, trying to process what was before them.If he weren't the successor of their family, they might have easily mistaken him for another patient in the ICU.There was Julian Wexler, lying on the bed, half-covered by the thin hospital quilt.The lower parts of his legs were completely gone—everything from the knees down.Only the upper sections of his legs remained, wrapped neatly in firm, clean layers of white gauze, making the absence below all the more striking."Oh, my Julian... my child, you have suffered greatly..." Julian's mother rushed to her son and collapsed onto him, crying uncontrollably.They had always protected Julian as the golden boy of their family since he was a child.They never even allowed a single scratch to appear on his skin.Even when he suffere

Elijah was left speechless for a few seconds.Now that he thought about it, Ms. Smith had really offered to take him to dinner after work, but he hadn't stayed until the close of the day.He didn't think that she would be offended and confront him now."Ms. Smith," he cleared his throat, unsure of what to say.This was when Tedrick DiLaurentis came hurrying from the side. He had no idea what was going on between the two, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, Ms. Smith, I was about to send him out of here."'Surnamed Langston—how dare you be an eyesore to a beautiful woman like Ms. Smith? If you knew her position in the DiLaurentis Medical Centers you would hurry up and leave.' he thought in disdain.' To him, Ms. Smith was displeased by the appearance of a shabbily looking person in her presence.Everyone knew she was not only a beautiful woman, second only to Serena DiLaurentis; she was the eldest daughter of a former aristocratic family—one that once had a good footing in the medical i

The well-dressed men stepped closer and let out a huff. "Hmph! Don't you have respect for your elders? Do you think highly of yourself because you were smuggled into the DiLaurentis family?"Elijah opened his mouth to speak but held back, realizing that this person was definitely from the DiLaurentis family. There was no way a random person would refer to him as 'Surnamed Langston'"Cat got your tongue..." He was now face to face with Elijah. "I'm Serena's uncle, Ted. I'm the director of the Toxicology Department in this medical center. Do you still dare to disrespect me?" His chin was slightly raised at the end.Elijah withheld his frown and simply responded, "I meant no disrespect, Uncle Ted. I just didn't recognize you." The DiLaurentis family was quite large, and he hadn't met everyone in the extended group yet. He was only familiar with Margaret's branch, which he had married into, and a few more relatives he had met at the hospital yesterday."If you meant no disrespect, the
