Alex was literally dying in frustration, even though Aridan was doing his best to meet up with time. “Aridan, I think you should park somewhere so that I can take the wheels.” Alex said, making Aridan's heart skip a beat.“No boss, that's not proper at all. You're very anxious, and driving in your current condition is not advisable. Besides, if you push the car with your true energy, it will definitely explode. Your energy will be too powerful for the car to take. We are almost there, please calm down boss. Nothing will happen to Lady Eleanor, we will make it in time. It has just been fifteen minutes and we are already close to Hill City state boundary. Halendale is just a little town in Hill City's remote areas. Within the next five minutes, we will definitely arrive beside Lady Eleanor. Please calm down, don't act recklessly because you're anxious, to avoid making mistakes.” Aridan pleaded, pushing the car as fast as he could. Alex sighed and closed his eyes. In as much as he want

The man's eyes widened and he quickly tried to shield himself. But of course, Alex wouldn't let him. High tech guns, daggers, and explosives, in addition to a few unknown materials were strapped to his body. He quickly tried to take Eleanor hostage, but Alex was faster. He kicked him away, and the man quickly twirled mid air and changed his fingers to claw stance, trying attack Alex's carotid artery to strike him down in one swoop. Alex met his claw with a palm strike, swatting him away, while simultaneously sending a kick his way. He still made another dive towards Eleanor, making his intentions obvious.Alex quickly threw Eleanor up and Aridan caught her, swirling mid air with her in his hands. Their eyes met, and Aridan smiled at her, silently reassuring her with the promise of his protection. At that moment, her heart skipped a few beats and began to race. But she was unable to determine if it was the handsome young man smiling at her beneath the mask, or the novelty of the frigh

“Alex,” Eleanor called, making his steps to halt in between going after the evil aura he felt. He turned towards her with a smile, trying to hide his anxiousness. “Babe, what's wrong? You look all flustered, did something happen?” She whispered, tightly holding his arm with a look of anxiousness on her face. Alex turned and gave her a slight smile. “Um, weren't you busy with the workers? You should go back to them and sort things out. Also, my people are busy with the investigation. You should recall that the authorities are ignoring this case, you have to tackle it yourself since it's obvious they have been bribed. Go talk about compensation and insurance with them, hurry up, it will soon be morning.” Alex whispered urgently and pushed her to the tent, while ignoring the look of indignation on her face. “Where are you going? Why does it seem as if you're in so much hurry? What happened? I feel nervous watching you leave, I don't want you to get hurt.” Eleanor whispered, making

Alex turned around, but to his greatest surprise and dismay, the ghosts he had expected to disappear after their tormentor died kept floating around instead of crossing the yellow river.“What's wrong? Could it be spiritual shackles? What kinds of evil art is that?” Alex muttered and quickly floated into the temple that have nearly been reduced to a rubble to take a look.He sent his spiritual consciousness to envelope the environment and almost lost his balance due to the horrifying things he encountered.“Another monster that's experimenting with human lives. There's also a young demon imprisoned and being tortured underground. Those two pots cooking on the mysterious fire should be the center of the evil devouring and imprisonment formation.” Alex muttered, examining the outline of the evil man's hideout.He went down to the underground and entered the room where he detected a weak life force.A young man was chained there, with parts of his skin missing. No, to be precise, he's no

Alex was stunned for a moment because he didn't expect the question. He kept staring at her for nearly two minutes, feeling speechless. He sighed and a bright smile spread on his face as he caressed her face lovingly. “I'm your husband, your man, your lover, and the father of your twins, who else will I be?” He whispered, placing his forehead against hers. Eleanor took a deep breath and held his arm. She slowly looked into his eyes and chuckled. “Alexander Winthrop, you don't need to act all cheeky with me. I'm not one of those naive women out there that will swoon because you flashed a smile at them. Your charms are no longer effective on me. So tell me, why are people always after us? Who are you? A drug baron? A top assassin? Is your mafia ring that horrible?” She whispered, not backing down. “Eleanor!” Alex growled, feeling short of words. “I'm not any of the things you mentioned. I may not be the best man in the world, but I'm definitely not a horrible person. I will never
