WHAT'S YOUR SECRET?
“Aha! It's about the hospitals recording missing patients. We finally found leads that suggests an evil cultivator is using them to practice a dark art. Also, we couldn't capture the people that attacked Food Haven, that was the reason I kept calling you. Maybe if you were available to block them, they wouldn't have escaped.” Aridan said, his voice accusatory.“Oh, they can go. I will still catch them soon. Besides, I have a haunch about who they are. I love how I spent this afternoon, the ones I missed can go to hell.” Alex said lazily, shaking his legs.Aridan rolled his eyes and looked and the notepad he was holding.“We finally dropped what you requested at Winthrop manor, you can check it out later. Also, the reporters are insisting on having a press conference with Food Haven, else they won't leave. How do you want to handle them?” “Okay, I will go talk to them briefly.” Alex quickly agreed, seemingly in a good mood.****Alex walked past the common area where the guests that w

DARK SORCERY
Alex chuckled heartily, feeling amused by their questions.“What materials did you use that was able to resist missiles?”Alex looked pointedly at them.“I used your head. Why will you ask such questions? Do you think I will seriously reveal that? All you need to know is that the materials are very expensive and rare. Most people don't know what it is. As for my architect, he's right beside you.” Alex said mischievously, making people look around.Alex's low chuckle Immediately made them realize that he was pulling pranks on them.“It seems you don't take this interview serious enough. Are you intentionally wasting our time?” A middle aged reporter asked angrily.“I didn't ask any of you to come. I was going to release an official press statement, but you decided to come yourselves. Besides, I answered all your reasonable questions. As for spies and probes, I don't have their time.” Alex said rudely, staring defiantly at them, as if telling them to do their worst.“Do you have any las

DEEPER THAN THE WATERS
“Those bastards are sneaky, they left these dark worm birds inside it to make us destroy the evidence and lose track of our lead.” Aridan whispered in dismay. “It's because I was not expecting to see such things in there. I would have been well prepared otherwise. Losing the lead is not our problem right now, we have an even bigger one. The destruction of this vodoo pot will make them realize that I have found out about them, and knew that they used sorcery. They will become more guarded and resort to even worse underhanded tricks. This is Karen's petty way of retaliating because I destroyed their food processing plant. But this kind of meticulousness and spiritual means is above him, he's getting help from somewhere.” Alex whispered thoughtfully, examining the surroundings. “What are we going to do now?” Aridan whispered sadly, stealing a glance at the warehouse where unsold stocks of energy drinks were packed full.“We wait. This might be the lead we have been searching for. Our r

JOYS OF MOTHERHOOD
Could it be that the poison those villains injected the baby's initial mother was still present in the baby's system? “Damn it!” Alex cursed, blaming himself for not examining the baby the day before.“There's a thick aura of darkness around you, hubby. That's why the baby is crying! Move away.” Bing Yu Xue shouted, running into the bathroom with the baby.Alex frowned.“But I have dropped everything with the darkness attribute in my room. Why is the baby's spirit still frightened?” He immediately returned to his room and began to scan his body. After a while, he noticed his bracelet which was storing a dark artefact. He had ignored it when he removed the others. He hissed and went back to Yu Xue's room.“Don't be afraid, daddy doesn't want to hurt you.” She whispered, rocking his body.Surprisingly, the baby stopped crying the moment Alex left, making Scarlett look at him suspiciously.Alex took a tentative step towards them, his face filled with hesitation. Bing Yu Xue instinctive

A RIVAL FOR HER HEART
Alex returned to Bing Yu Xue's room and noticed that the baby had finished two bottles of baby formulas.“Ah? If you eat like your siblings you're going to finish all our money on baby food.” Alex exclaimed, looking at the two empty milk bottles. Kaiser paid him no heed, smiling at Bing Yu Xue who was playing with him.“I still think sterilized goat milk is more nutritious than all these formulas, It's scientifically proven. The only other bigger thing is a mother's breast milk. Are all these formulas necessary?” Alex asked with his hands on his waist.“Kaiser doesn't like taking goat milk at night, he only takes it in the morning. Besides, I didn't ask you to buy it. If I don't spend money on my son, what am I going to use the money for?” Bing Yu Xue asked, giving Alex a side eye.“Okay. Those of us that lost their mothers should go hide their faces.” Alex whispered with an eye roll, sitting on the bed. “I want to go take a shower, can you hold the baby, or should Scarlett stay back

THE ONE BEHIND THE SCENES
Alex yawned and sighed, feeling as if the weight of the world was on his shoulders. It very well maybe.“There's never a moment of rest. Will I ever get a night of uninterrupted sleep?” Alex whispered, feeling too lazy to leave the bed. But there was work waiting and he had to leave. There was no other option before him, the work won't do itself, nor will a decision materialize from thin air. He had to be there to determine the flow and sequence of actions.He shifted the blanket and looked at the two people on the bed. At once, a huge smile spread on his face, making the tiredness and lethargy disappear. Kaiser made a little sound at that moment, and sucked the nipple in his little mouth a bit, before his expression returned to his serene baby's sleeping face. Yu Xue was holding the baby possesively even as she slept. Alex felt his chest flutter and he smiled at the beautiful sight. He wondered if Eleanor also slept in the same bed with the twins when they were infants. He sighed, kn

THE X FACTOR
Alex frowned thoughtfully, trying to recall if any of the Winthrop family members had that kind of voice. He shook his head with a sigh, and gave up on trying to analyze the voice. “I don't recall any of them having that kind of voice. The voice of that person is hermaphroditic. It doesn't seem to belong to a particular gender. It seems like a woman's voice at some pitches, and like a man's voice on a different pitch. I can't tell if our target is a man or woman from this voice alone, talk more of deciphering the identity.” Alex whispered, sitting on an empty sofa. “Do you know of any gay person in the Winthrop family? He or she could be gay to have that kind of transgender streak. That person is definitely the X factor we're looking for to make the pieces of the puzzle fit.” Aridan chipped in, looking up from his workstation. Alex shook his head again. “None that I know of. Most of them are promiscuous but they do it with the opposite sex. Besides, I left there decades ago, so I

COULD IT BE A TRAITOR?
Alex sighed and weighed the options before him. “During the course of the investigation, are you confident that you didn't leave a trace? Or did they know that their hideout had been bursted?” “I'm not sure. However, one of the guards looked really suspicious as he walked around the area where we hid.” Ikaris muttered, looking at the floor. “This can only mean that their guard is high right now, I need to go alone. I can't leave it till tomorrow either, they might finish off the kidnapped victims if they suspect that we will prepare a raid against them. What's the time on your computer screen?” Alex asked, turning to Aridan. “It's fifteen minutes past three a.m.” Aridan announced. “Get the reconnaissance and other preparations ready. I will hit in immediately. Hopefully, I will return before six.” Alex whispered and turned around, quickly rushing to his room to get himself ready for the task ahead. The moment he entered his room, he moved straight to his dressing room and donned

DOUBLE AGENT?
Alex scoffed and looked at the people in the room. “Apart from you guys, how many people knew that I was about to leave?” Alex asked coldly, staring daggers at them. “No one else. Shadow and his men left in a haste, so they didn't have the time for words. They couldn't have known you wanted to go somewhere.” Aridan whispered, looking at the rest. “So the problem is right inside this room? Okay, till I return. I treat all my subordinates as the sons and friends they are. But I don't take betrayals lightly. It better not be a rat amongst us. It better be them merely taking precautions, because I will deal so ruthlessly with the person. Just like I loved you all with all my heart, I can also hate with all of my heart. It better not be a rat.” Alex growled, making everyone shiver. He turned around and left, with Aridan hot on his heels. “Aridan, go back. This mission won't be funny.” Alex said without looking back but Aridan continued to follow him. “That's the more reason I should

MEETING THE XFACTOR
Alex's eyes darted around like that of a rat, and he decided to teleport to the area he heard the voices of kids. However, he realized that there were specialized space locks targeting people of his cultivation level yet again. The weapons and traps he had been meeting were carefully tailored for people of the god and demi god realm. He almost regretted not taking Aridan's offer of having him break in instead. If Aridan had been the one in his place, the specialized traps wouldn't have caught a whiff of him. Alex did a quick math and dashed to a corner, bursting out into a different area from where he had intended to go. A masked man appeared in his former location alongside two women merely five seconds after Alex left. “He's not here, did he leave?” One of the women muttered. “Impossible, he doesn't give up that easily. If he doesn't find the things he came for, you can be sure as hell that he isn't leaving here. He's as tenacious as a wild horse.” The man whispered coldly, qui
