Like a secretary reporting to her boss, the director reported to Alex after returning to him.

“Hmm.”

Without looking up, Alex nodded his head, his attention not leaving the screen in front of him.

It was only after a while that he finally lifted his head to look, only to see Rebecca still standing where she had been, reporting to him just now.

Smiling wryly, Alex motioned for her to take a seat.

“Thank you, Sir President.”

Alex nodded a little, and Rebecca took a seat respectfully, not feeling the least bit offended by the way she was disregarded.

“Please, could you tell me everything you know about this company and my family? Most of the things on the internet seemed to be fabricated.”

“Huh?”

When Rebecca heard Alex's inquiry, her head arched slightly and her mouth opened wide, giving off a very amusing appearance.

He yelled at Alex in a threatening tone.Who is Alex now, though? Someone who has the capability of destroying the old man with just a single breath, therefore, wasn't affected by his threat or tone at all.Well, that doesn't mean he wasn't offended, though, since he was awar

Are you deaf or what? Why don't you get going now if you have no business here?"One of the bullies whose irritated gaze hadn't left Alex yelled angrily, clearly unhappy that Alex was delaying their urgent mission.When Alex heard this, he finally returned to his senses and grinned coldly.'Perhaps I wouldn't have gotten involved if I were weak, but now that I have the strength and capability to get involved, wouldn't I become worse than them if I did nothing to assist the individual

'What's she doing in a location where she is being molested?'Alex took in a deep breath, then finally turned to the tugs, who were still howling as if their a$$es were on fire.Looking at them, Alex noticed that they were all attempting to rise with menacing expressions on their faces, so he crossed his arms on his chest and let them stand up, but the next second, he felt someone tugging his shirt nervously from behind."Le... let's go already!"Alex heard an anxious voice full
