“The Del Monte Royale Casino is owned by Mr. Alexander Curry. What?!” Mr. Ferguson read the article that Alexander had opened for him but although the truth was right in front of his face, he couldn’t believe it.“You want to read more? That is just the headline but I can click the link and show you more if you want” Alexander taunted as he saw how shocked Mr. Ferguson was to see such an article. “You know what? I’ll just click it and show you anyway” he said then clicked the link under the article’s meta title on the search engine’s front page.After a second, the actual article was opened and Alexander looked at the two security guards who were holding Mr. Ferguson’s arms and preventing him from moving. With his eyes, he gestured that they let go of the distraught man and both security guards obeyed the instruction.Alexander enjoyed bossing people around, especially when they were people who had acted against him in the past.“Here you go. Read as much as you want” Alexander said
“What’s the plan now, sir?” Jeremiah asked Alexander.Alexander looked around the casino, inhaled, and exhaled in a peaceful sigh. He had walked into the casino as one of the numerous clientele, got unjustly thrown out, returned to get his revenge and now he was standing as one of the only two owners of the establishment.The only thing he felt at that moment was gratitude to the system for changing his reality into what it was now.Finished with everything he went there for, Alexander had no more reason to stick around and so he decided that it was time to leave.He looked at where Francis was standing then he called him to come over.“Yes, sir?” Francis asked the moment he got to Alexander.“I’m about to take my leave. As usual, everything is under your control. Do what you see fit and call me if there’s anything I should know about” Alexander instructed then gave Francis his phone number.“Okay, sir. I’ll be going back to my office now. Have a great rest of the evening.” Francis sa
Alexander was on his way back to The Sam’s Hotel, so he could clean up and rest.His very expensive suit had been roughed up multiple times, so it wasn’t looking or feeling as pristine as it used to, and he just wanted to get out of it as soon as possible.While driving back, Alexander remembered something he hadn’t done yet and, although it wasn’t safe, he decided to do it anyway.He called Charles while driving. Because he had connected his phone to the car, the call was through the car’s speakers, which meant that he could keep his hands on the steering wheel.[“Good evening Master Alexander”]“Good evening Charles. How have you been?”[“I’ve been fine master. I was patiently waiting for when I’d receive the call you promised to make this evening, and I’m so happy that you finally did”]Alexander chuckled then took a left turn.“I am a man of my word, so there was never anything to worry about. Nothing would have stopped me from calling you tonight.”[“I know you are a man of your
"Come this way, Sir," the old man said, showing Alexander where he should sit, while Alexander looked down at him with a shocked expression."Mr. Foster?" Alexander mumbled just as they got to the table the elderly man had been leading him to and the utterance of his name made Mr. Foster look up at Alexander with a surprised expression."You know me, young man? I don't think I've seen you before, but is this not the first time eating here?" Mr. Foster asked with a pleasant smile and eyes that were so old and wrinkled that they were slits."I don't think I've seen someone with your features here before—" Mr. Foster said before he finished, he jolted and held Anthony's arm."My apologies for making you stand this long. Please have a sit" Mr. Foster pointed at the chair right next to them and Alexander looked down at it, smiling with a hint of melancholy, as that was the same spot he had sat down all those years ago.He looked closer and realized something."It's the same table as back
Mr. Foster sighed "Well, I hope you enjoy it because this is the last food I'm ever going to make here for anyone." Mr. Foster said then looked into Alexander's confused pupils."This is the last day The Foster's Kitchen is going to be open and after this, we're going out of business"Alexander's eyes widened after hearing this shocking news. He struggled to swallow what he had just eaten as he exclaimed "What?!"He managed to swallow the food, grabbed the cup of water and drank it then beat his chest a few times so that he doesn’t choke."But how?! Why are you closing all of a sudden?!" Alexander asked hurriedly, leaning forward so fast that he almost stood from his seat.Mr. Foster was surprised by how interested Alexander was being about this topic and he couldn't help but look at him in disbelief."I don't know if I should be telling a total stranger something that has to do with my private life, even if you're my last customer—" Mr. Foster said, smiling nervously to deflate how s
Mr. Foster looked down at the almost empty cup and panicked when he realized that he had forgotten to bring a jug of water so that Alexander could refill for himself when his cup was getting empty. Regretting his mistake, Mr. Foster rushed to his feet."Sorry about that, Sir, I'll go get you our best drink right away"Alexander chuckled, "Thanks but just water is fine. Also, you don't have to call me Sir all the time. It makes me feel embarrassed having my elder show me that level of respect"Mr. Foster stared at Alexander with amazement at the level of humility the young multimillionaire had shown and he almost cried because of it but he stopped himself."Why are you doing this? Helping a stranger like me?" Mr. Foster asked.Alexander swallowed his food."Mr. Foster, you are no stranger to me.”“You’re not a stranger?” Mr. Foster asked, shocked by the revelation.“Yes. You might have forgotten me because I've grown up a lot since back then, but I had come here with my mother in the
Danny got madder and he wanted to strike Alexander with the sledgehammer but he also wanted to know what Alexander, who was this confident, was going to say so he just had to stomach it."You're lucky I'm interested in what you have to say or else your head would have been broken to pieces by now" Danny threatened then started to step away from Alexander.Anthony rolled his eyes, scoffed, and fanned in front of his face, saying "How disgusting""Hurry up and speak before we change our minds, pretty boy" From behind Danny, Jim said with a scowl, and everywhere went quiet.Alexander broke the silence by saying "It wouldn't take a genius to deduct from how things have played out so far that after Mr. Foster got the loan, your boss, the loan shark, sent you here to make sure that you sabotaged any efforts Mr. Foster could make to pay him back. You pretended to be workers here to accomplish that exact purpose"Everyone's eyes widened when they heard what Alexander said and those three's re
Sadly for Danny again, Alexander was two steps ahead and he had already predicted that the brute of a man would do that.In response, Alexander executed his next move.He utilized his lack of balance to drop to the floor on his back then he kicked his legs upwards towards the head of the sledgehammer.His move made his body to act like a spring and because one hand wasn't sturdy enough to properly hold the weapon, Danny's hand, alongside the sledgehammer, was forced to go the opposite direction.At the end of everything, the sledgehammer went through the split in the broken table and hit the exact stop on the floor it had left a crack when Danny destroyed the table earlier.Everyone was left speechless and frozen at the sight of what Alexander had just done, but it wasn't over.Alexander didn't have time to waste because he still had two more, Sonny and Jim to take care of, and then there was Richard.From the floor, he quickly pushed himself and got on his feet then he jumped and did
