The man who got out of the car was none other than Bruce, and as though it wasn't enough, this b*stard even brought his lackeys with him! Alex clenched his jaws; it seems that Brother Louise, his colleague, had already betrayed him...'Look at this pretentious clown acting like a hero.' Alex's brows twitched; he was incensed at this fellow's shamelessly calling Shenna his "woman".Alex shook his head as he adjusted his wild emotions—why was he even getting angry thinking of Shenna?
He hated himself for still having some lingering feelings left for her!
On the other hand, after receiving that punch from Alex, he had been harboring thoughts about how he was going to teach this mere "nobody" a lesson."I never thought you could get out of jail," Bruce said chillingly while narrowing his gaze. Knowing full well that Alex, who was a beggar in his eyes, didn’t have the capacity and the connection to bail out.That was the reason he let the police department issue a high fee.
Yet this son of a ***** manages to get out!Alex clenched his fist hard enough that his nails dug into his palm. For Bruce to bring these numerous people with him... Wasn't ruining his life and stealing his woman not enough to satisfy him? Does this b*stard not fear the heavens?He really wanted to punch Bruce in the face and make him realize the misdeeds he did all this year in the Humming City! But then, Alex thought about the previous encounter and held back; he didn't want to get behind bars a second time.Seeing that Alex wasn't moving made Bruce think. 'Well, would you look at that? Isn't this corporate slave too shocked to grasp the situation? Well, I can't blame him for having cold feet now.'Bruce chuckled mockingly as he paced toward Alex with a victorious smirk on his handsome face."Alex, Alex... You were going through the railroad of success, you see; if you had just bowed your head and pissed off, none of this would have happened. Why would you lust over my woman? I'm her first man; hey now, don't look at me with such cold eyes..." Bruce chuckled at seeing Alex, who was glaring with murderous eyes at him. "Truly, you haven't grasped the reality; if you had an inkling of the situation, you wouldn't go against someone with more power and influence than you!"Bruce shook his head, his eyes full of scorn. "Tsk, tsk, do you hate me now?"
"No, I don't," Alex replied, thinking to himself. Well, he could agree with Bruce.
"Oh, how so?" Bruce was taken aback by Alex's reply.
"I don't particularly hate you. Actually, I pity you, and I'm pretty sure that your ****ing my leftover." Alex responded while pretending to be sorrowful.
Hearing that Bruce's face stiffened, then slowly his facial expression darkened, especially when he thought of Shenna as a pure and unblemished lady, was a hard pill for him to swallow.
"Y-You!" Bruce was livid as he pointed at Alex's nose.Meanwhile, because of the delay, passersby and some of the people exiting the police station were starting to notice them gathering together. Bruce took a glance at the side road as he clicked his tongue; no wonder this prick was raising his voice loudly... So he was doing that on purpose!Also, it doesn't matter if he has a good relationship with the commander in chief of police; if they were attracting too much attention to themselves, it wouldn't look good in the public's eye. Bruce glanced at the open door of his luxury car as he smirked while barking. "Beat him up; I want to see him bleed!" His minions also realize that increasing numbers of passersby are gossiping and taking out their phones, and with that, their faces become ruthless as they immediately move into action, taking only seconds to pounce on Alex altogether... Talk about an unfair fight...Just then, another car pulled up to the curb.
Alex frowned while he glanced at the corner of his eyes, yet he failed to recognize the brand of this car.He had no idea that it was a global limited edition and that its price would put an average family into a financial crisis, but he was not stupid enough not to notice that it was more luxurious than Bruce's car.
Who was the owner?
Could it be?
Alex darted his gaze in Bruce's direction as he thought it was someone Bruce called, but he didn't expect Bruce's expression to be as confused as his; he stood there dumbfounded even!
"That's the latest Mercedes-Maybach..." Bruce couldn't believe his eyes. That car is ridiculously expensive, and only the most prestigious individuals, for example, the head of state or high-ranking government officials, are worthy of it!But who are they?
At this time, the top-notch car doors were pushed open, and some security guards with intimidating figures that would make Bruce's minions utterly pale in comparison got out of the vehicle with dead serious facial expressions.
They were like trained soldiers and combined with their large frames, they blocked the surrounding passersby from going any further, who were shocked and intimidated.
Some of the passersby became excited as they asked their friends, "Hey, are they shooting a movie?", and "They should be celebrities, right?"
Meanwhile, the last one to get out of the luxurious car was a middle-aged man with a mysterious aura, which would make one judge that this person was anything but ordinary!
And to boot, he looked very rich. He swipes his hawklike gaze at the gathering crowds, then toward Alex's direction.
Immediately, his wrinkled face stiffened for a moment before his eyes lit up in enthusiasm.
At first, Alex thought that this was Bruce's family's reinforcement.After all, he didn't have any connection with wealthy individuals or big shots in this city, and sure enough, the wealthy-looking middle-aged man walked up to them with evenly distributed steps.
Even Bruce flinched for a second, especially when he saw the golden crest of a sword on the chest of the middle-aged uncle that was heading toward him, his eyes going up!
Just then, the middle man amicably smiled and said that he was looking for the master.
Hearing that Bruce couldn't help but tremble in excitement, and he immediately reached out his hand for a handshake!On the other hand, Alex shook his head in frustration; as expected, he came for Bruce. Alex couldn't be bothered anymore as he had to escape in case it was Bruce’s family, not to mention those scary-looking guards that might beat him to a pulp somehow.
Suddenly, there was an unexpected turn of events, as the middleman didn't even spare a glance in Bruce's direction, nor was he paying attention to Bruce's offering of a handshake. Bruce's expression stiffened as he realized he was being ignored by the middle-aged man!
At this point...Alex was surprised and confused. He saw the middle-aged man take a step forward, and without the slightest hint, the middle-aged man hugged him tightly.
Alex was dumbfounded!
The middle-aged man's blue eyes were full of emotion as he spoke with gentleness. "I finally found you, young master!"

Teacher Vivian recovered from her shock and glared at her husband. "What are you waiting for? Shouldn't you carry your own luggage?""Um..." Richard's face was turning a shade of red as he hurriedly grabbed the bags Alex was carrying."Y-You must be tired, junior brother?" Richard wanted to keep his dignity, so he was making excuses not to be obvious. Furthermore, he had no idea about Alex's identity; he was horrified inside thinking about offending someone he shouldn't have. However, would Alex not notice what Richard was thinking? So he feigned ignorance and stated it in a calm voice. "Tired? Not at all. I can carry it for you all the way."Richard was stunned then, his back broke a cold sweat as he felt like crying with no tears. Not to mention, his wife was glaring at him."I-I'll carry it from here, please." Richard uttered, and at the end of his sentence, his voice was the sound of a mosquito; it was barely audible. On the other hand, Teacher Vivian came forward and faced Alex

"What do you mean my credit card didn't go through?" Richard was frowning heavily. How come his credit card wasn't accepted? He was pretty sure it had some savings in it.The server rolled his eyes, although he was annoyed. Nevertheless, he still had to maintain professionalism. With it in mind, he politely explained. "With all due respect, we only accept credit cards from reputable banks, mostly VIP card holders, but we do have a beer minimum; it would be the C.F.R. City Bank."The moment Richard heard those words, he was dumbfounded. What the... VIP card holders? What's even more incredulous is that the C.F.R. City Bank was considered a beer minimum.'Wasn't the C.F.R. City Bank the biggest bank in the City?' Richard mumbled in disbelief. On the side, teacher Vivian was similarly stunned, but soon she recovered, and she was starting to worry as she uttered. "Does it mean we will have to leave?""Let me think..." Richard gritted his teeth; he shouldn't have lost his cool, yet he had

Around ten in the morning, Alex finally arrived at his destination.He got out of the car while taking off his eyewear, which caused his brows to involuntarily twitch as he felt the heat rays from the glaring sun. Then he turned his attention toward the famous property of Antonio Florence.Undoubtedly, the plantsIt was a mixture of greenery and modernity, as the villas and the mansion were surrounded by gorgeous, rare plants. Alex wondered how they managed to grow those plants that could only be seen in different countries!Indeed, the place deserves its name, the Golden Paradise.Just then, someone came toward Alex."Sir, this way, please." A young man in his late teens who looks like an employee with his white and black uniform came to Alex and led him toward where a group of visitors was.'Kate and the others are not present. They've already gone ahead; I should look for them later.' Alex mumbled while scanning the crowd, looking for his co-workers, only to fail.At this point, as
Chapter 64; Outing To The Golden Paradise!
Weeks passed, and everything was back on track. Alex could be seen jogging around the plaza, as the children were playing while noticing the young man, Alex pass them by while gasping for air.Gradually, Alex slowed down. He was thirsty and dead tired from working out. He took a seat on a vacant bench, gulping down the water bottle and putting some on top of his head to refresh himself. "That felt good," Alex uttered while feeling his muscles start to relax.Just then, Alex heard his name being called from a distance. He shifted his gaze toward the direction of the voice and saw a young lady wearing a yoga outfit.Rihanna? Alex thought in surprise at her appearance."Alex..." Rihanna was catching her breath as she spoke. "I noticed you from the apartment's balcony earlier; I wanted to tag along, but you were jogging too fast... Oh, I almost forgot this is for you."Rihanna took out a small pink towel and handed it to Alex in a shy manner."Wow, thank you, Rihanna." Alex grinned as

At this juncture, the veterans were starting to incircle around Alex; one of the veterans even moved a step closer toward Shenna.Just as the perverted veteran was about to grab her, Alex suddenly blocked his outstretched hands with his body."Tell your men to stop." Alex's words were directed toward the veteran leader, who was simply standing at the back of the group of veterans.Hearing Alex's sentence, the veteran leader signaled to his group of veterans to stop."You want me dead, right?" Alex said while pushing the terrified Shenna behind him to cover him from the veterans."Indeed, we want you dead; your head will be valuable." The veteran leader's statement was very alarming."At least give me a reason why you are after me... Is it because of the Crown family?" There was no need for Alex to hide his identity at this point; most likely, they already knew him beforehand. What's more puzzling is: what was their intention?"You sure have guts." "Alright, I'll explain it to you....
