**** Standing before Alex right now are Shana and Cliff Sotto who both has mockery and disgust etched all over their faces at this moment.Seeing the duo that is presently in each other's embrace as if scared one of them would run off or suddenly disappear, Alex became astounded and his brain went haywire in his head.‘Was what happened yesterday real?’His breathing abruptly quickened and before he knew it, a great sense of excitement hit him hard.He doesn’t even notice that he wasn’t bothered at all by Shana's betrayal at this moment.‘If it truly had happened, wouldn’t that mean everything else that occurred yesterday including me knowing my source and the Divine General being my Godfather was real?’Just as Alex was busily being filled to the brim with an out-of-the-world excitement, Shana's disgusted voice once again entered his ears.“You useless piece of trash! Hope you haven’t gone crazy because I made you know your real place yesterday?”The moment she sighe
**** “Mister, please, where did you get this card?”Currently, a middle-aged man with a nervous demeanor could be seen interrogating Alex.Although the question he asked was straightforward, Alex struggled greatly to provide an answer.Would he just say the card was given to him by his aunt who happens to be the leader of the number prominent family in the entire country that owns the bank he was currently inside?Alex wasn’t a fool, so he knew that nobody in their right mind would believe his claim.With this, he became overwhelmed with nervousness and his back which was already drenched with his sweat became damp and watery despite the fully blowing air conditioner inside the huge office.As for the middle-aged man, upon seeing Alex like this, the strong nervousness on his face intensified and he became slightly irritated and furious inside.Sighing gently, he continued. “Young… young brother, you need not be scared at all,” he decided to coax Alex. “This card, you n
***** Gazing at Alex right now, the middle-aged manager doesn’t know what to think anymore.Apart from the thick shock on his face, only fear could be seen.Although the call has been disconnected more than five minutes ago, the man doesn’t resemble someone who would be returning to his senses anytime soon.Poor him, he doesn’t even have the time to relish in the joy of him personally speaking with the most respected person in the entire country. His mind was in complete a mess right now.Although he already thought of various reasons why the card was with Alex initially, the probability of him being related to the Johnson family or even the Divine general does not cross his mind, not even once. But now, according to what he was told, Alex wasn’t only related to the strongest person and the strongest family in the nation, he's the strongest person’s godson and the strongest family’s heirs.Suddenly, after more than twelve minutes had passed, the middle-aged man suddenly trem
**** Leaving the bank amidst everybody’s fear and the Manager’s respectful gazes, Alex felt everything that just occurred too surreal, and if not because he already knew better, he would have once again thought he was dreaming. Filled to the brim with an unimaginable amount of joy, he continued strolling. He doesn’t even know what to do right now. Whether to go take his revenge first or go report at the headquarters of the biggest company in the entire Potter’s City which was given to him by his aunty. But upon realizing that there were just a lot of people he had sworn to repay and since it wasn’t something that could be rushed, Alex canceled the first plan. As for the second idea, Alex also immediately canceled it without any reason whatsoever, probably because he doesn’t have the courage yet, then he became confused. Ever since he could remember, his life had revolved around always working without rest, so Alex doesn’t have any idea of what to do. Just as he was busily rack
***** Paying the hefty bill given to him by the taxi driver without faltering an eye, to the driver’s great shock and slight disappointment, Alex who was now too engrossed in the building before him approached it, his eyes filled to the brim with amazement and his breathing gradually quickening.‘It is truly as we saw it in her television then,’ he heaved a deep sigh of amazement as he was about to enter.But the moment one of his feet passed through the automatic sliding door, goosebumps covered his skin and he became nervous, his heart also began to pound when he saw the bulky and muscle-filled security guards on either side. But he soon realized that he was just being paranoid when saw them bow slightly to him, welcoming him.To this, Alex became astonished because it had been an extremely long he was respected and not looked down upon anywhere.Feeling some emotions rising within him, Alex finally entered. But the moment he saw the new view before him, his legs became
**** Everyone in the waiting area, including Alex, had their mouths wide open at this point as they observed the shocking sight before them.As Alex gaped at the men and women bowing before him, his brain had stopped working, and neither he nor everybody witnessing this scene right now could speak nor think at all.As for the crowd, only their eyes were moving back and forth between him and the seven hotel executives, and no matter from which angle they look, they were unable to comprehend how normal it was for the powerful individuals who were on equal footing with the top-ranked family leaders of Potters City to bow for someone.The deep silence preceded for more than five minutes before suddenly, the thunderstruck voice of a woman sounded with disbelief. “Wasn’t… wasn’t it my… my husband that called you here?”The moment this voice sounded, everybody returned to their senses and instantly, they all felt that a mistake must have occurred, their gazes then automatically retur
“Wife… son…”The mother-son pair were beckoned to by an obese-looking man who was dressed in a suit as he sauntered, approaching the group of people.Even before he reached the gathering, his son and wife had already hurried to meet him and fill him in on all that had transpired exaggeratedly. And by the time the man reached the crowd, his eyes were already shooting out flames as though, he couldn’t wait to butcher everybody.“Who are the people that cursed me and said I’m a bastard if I don’t shut down this shitty hotel ?”“Father, it was them.”“Hobby, it was them. These stupid people actually dared to support an ordinary beggar against us.”The son and mother duo pointed fiercely at the hotel workers and Alex, making the manager finally return to his senses and become confused.“What’s really going on?”The suit-wearing man who had been attempting to resolve matters politely but currently wiping the beads of sweat that wouldn't stop forming on his face was abruptly questioned, and
***** It's a good thing Alex wasn't followed inside the suite labeled his, because if he had, everyone would have known who he really was.Looking at Alex, who had just entered, one could see him standing dumbfounded with his mouth open and eyes wide."This... this... place!"No matter how hard he tried, Alex was utterly powerless to suppress the shock he was experiencing.However, it wasn't Alex's fault because he had never been in an environment that even came close to matching anything inside this place he was standing right now.If one didn't know any better, one would have assumed that the enormous suite was housed within a mansion.Even multiple first-grade royal palaces and the residence of the president of a nation couldn't compare to how lovely and orderly it was.The floor, the white and gold-painted walls that appeared to be glowing, the sofas that stood majestically in the middle, the diamond-topped table in the center, and the illuminations all appeared to be very na
