Living with Elena had been one of the most joyful moments in Alexander's life in recent days, despite the relentless insults he often endured from her parents. However, he didn't let those insults affect him. After all, Tracy and her family had always hurled insults at him. Currently, Alexander was seated in a restaurant near Elena's Company’s building. Today, he planned to surprise her with a visit. Sipping his coffee slowly, he had been occupied with the flash drive he had been researching for the past few days. Through this research, he discovered that several companies he had applied to in the past that rejected him not because of a lack of competence, but due to his lack of wealth and connections were all subsidiary companies of his father's company. His father had given him the contact information of his butler, whom Alexander had reached out to a few days ago. The butler, upon learning that Alexander was still alive, felt immense relief and shed tears when Alexander told him

A young, handsome man with golden hair dressed in a white shirt and a black jacket. Holding a food trolley, he walked through the hallway of the exquisite hotel.The floor beneath his feet boasted pure marble, while the walls were adorned with a vibrant coat of red paint.*Beep!*Alexander Starius pressed the doorbell of room 345, preparing to deliver the food that had been ordered.Within moments, the door swung open, revealing a man of similar age to Alexander, wrapped in a white towel."Good morning, sir. You ordered room service," Alexander greeted the young man."Come in," the man replied, granting Alexander entry. As he stepped into the room, he was met with a sight that left him stunned—lying on the bed, partially undressed, was none other than his wife, Tracy."Tracy! What's going on?" Alexander exclaimed, shocked to find his wife in such a compromising position.Alexander Starius, a man who had no knowledge of his family's complicated history was unaware of the hatred from M

Tracy, stop with your lies. You're causing harm to innocent people," Elena said firmly, holding onto her two-year-old child as she approached Tracy, ready to confront her.Tracy glared at Elena, her eyes filled with fury. "Mind your own business. This doesn't concern you," she spat.Undeterred, Elena stood tall, as she spoke. "It does concern me. Alexander is not a rapist, and I know he would never harm you."Tracy's face reddened with her fake tears, and she clenched her fists. "How dare you! You're a disgraced woman with a child born out of wedlock. You have no right to judge me!" The crowd gasped, shocked by Tracy's harsh words.Elena felt the weight of their judgement as the crowd either laughed or mocked her. She had always carried the shame of having a child out of wedlock, and Tracy had just humiliated her in front of everyone.Tears welled up in Elena's eyes as Tracy continued to lash out with insults.Meanwhile, Alexander, who barely knew Elena, was taken aback by her courage

The tinted windows of the blacked-out SUVs rolled down. *Rummm!* Engines growled as the convoy of intimidating vehicles screeched to a halt, surrounding Alexander in a semi-circle of looming metal and malice. Car doors flung open and the thugs spilled out onto the street in a choreographed show of force. First came Leo himself, the imposing gang leader. The parents of the disciplined kids trailed sheepishly behind this small army, looking suddenly unsure if involving these vicious criminals had been the best idea. Leo swaggered forward, his burly frame adorned with the bright red and black colour that struck fear into the hearts of those unwise enough to cross the Crimson Skulls gang. His goons fanned out behind him, cracking knuckles and sneering as they sized up their target. Leo came from an upbringing in the slums of Starlight City. From a young age, he fell into the wrong crowd, getting wrapped up in petty crimes and gang violence that plagued the streets. However, Leo's

****************Alexander, Elena, and her son Charles went to a nearby restaurant to eat. Once they were seated, Alexander apologized to Elena for the controversy at the hospital."Elena, I'm sorry about what happened back there with my mom thinking we were married," he said, looking slightly embarrassed.Elena continued, "Alexander, about your mom's request for us to stay together... I don't want to make any false promises of marriage. However, I would be happy if you stayed at my place since you don't have anywhere to go right now."Alexander was surprised by her offer but didn't want to overstay his welcome afterall he wasn't poor again. He had just received a large amount of money as compensation for the previous fight. Renting a new house wouldn't be a problem for him."Actually, I have a place to stay, you don't have to worry about that," Alexander replied.Elena felt bad as she had just made a statement that seemed like she looked down on Alexander because he is an ex-convict
