"Alexander, Alexander,"***The following morning, Alexander awoke from his slumber. As he attempted to sit up, a slight pain emanated from his abdomen. Observing his discomfort, Isabel, who was beside him, promptly rose to her feet and assisted him in reclining back down. She bowed apologetically, her guilt apparent in her eyes. "Young master, I'm deeply sorry for my negligence. This unfortunate incident would not have occurred if I had been there to protect you," she expressed, the guilt evident in her eyes.Alexander sighed, he didn't want her blaming herself after all he had commanded her not to follow him. Alexander sighed, not wanting her to blame herself since he had specifically instructed her not to follow him. "Isabel, please don't blame yourself. It's my own fault, not yours. Moving forward, I promise to always heed your advice regarding my safety.""I won't be here any longer," she responded sorrowfully.This statement furrowed Alexander's brow, prompting him to attempt s

Helen's disdainful reaction to Alexander's request reflected her frustration, as she sarcastically remarked, "Can't you, at the very least, show some respect towards me as the daughter of a prominent family?"In response, Alexander remained silent, his gaze fixed upon her. Irritated by his lack of words, Helen expressed her displeasure by stomping her foot and reluctantly complying, reaching over to open the car door.As Alexander stepped out of the vehicle, he glanced back at Isabel, who remained seated inside. Offering her a reassuring smile, he instructed, "Wait here, Isabel. I'll be back shortly."Observing Isabel's downcast expression, he paused and reconsidered, saying, "Alright, come with me, as I promised."Isabel nodded, and the three of them proceeded to enter the fast-food establishment, where they were greeted by two imposing men dressed in dark suits. These individuals, recognizing Helen, bowed in deference as they passed by.Inside, the atmosphere buzzed with liveliness.

Amidst the enveloping darkness, a flicker of light pierced through, revealing a room where Alexander found himself standing alone. However, within moments, his eyes fell upon the figure of Emily, standing before him.Puzzled, Alexander frowned and queried, "Why are you here?"Instantly, Emily dropped to her knees, tears streaming down her face, as she fervently pleaded, "Please, Alexander, find it in your heart to forgive me. I never intended to cause you any harm. I now realize the gravity of my foolishness and how poorly I treated you, despite your boundless love."Torn between his lingering affection for her and doubts about genuine change, Alexander hesitated to respond. Would she truly transform and mend her ways?In the next instant, the scene shifted abruptly, and Alexander found himself seated in a lavish building, adorned with opulence befitting immense wealth. As he basked in his affluence, a servant hurried into the room, delivering unsettling news."Young master, as per yo

Nameless collapsed to the ground, worsening his injuries. In that moment, he didn't feel the pain. Instead, he was overwhelmed by shock and surprise."Are you kidding?" Nameless asked Alexander, his voice filled with disbelief.With a serious expression, Alexander replied, "I'm not joking. I have no intention of humiliating you. I'm simply telling you the truth."Nameless bit his tongue to make sure he wasn't dreaming. First, he encountered Isabel, a younger girl who turned out to be stronger than him. And now, the blow that hit him the hardest was the fact that Alexander had just started cultivating today and was already on the same level as him. This achievement was reserved for the exceptionally talented.Only Isabel could understand what he was feeling. After all, she felt that way seeing Alexander leap through several stages.Ignoring his pain, Nameless stood up and bowed to Alexander without a hint of hesitation. "I will follow you from now on," he declared. He believed Alexander

Helen signaled to the man who held Tom's wife, indicating that he should take her away. A chair was brought for her, and she sat down. Bald Liu stood behind her, smoking a cigarette. With a smile on her face, she glanced at Tom and said, "I knew you wouldn't surrender completely. Unfortunately, you have a more intelligent subordinate. He pleaded with me not to kill your wife because of how well you've treated him in the past. However, he also recognized that none of you are more powerful than me and chose to surrender. Only a wise man would do that."Tom let out a sigh. Bald Liu's betrayal had deeply affected him. Despite being his subordinate, Tom considered Bald Liu to be like a brother, but Bald Liu had stabbed him in the back in pursuit of more power.Bald Liu spoke, "Tom, I understand that you might hate me, but I did this for us. We don't have enough power to challenge her. Furthermore, by aligning ourselves with her, we can dominate the underground world of Fairview. Why not fol
