Alex has a secret. He is known as a parasite of his wife and Locke’s in Kimberly City. However, he was once the only heir of one of the richest families in the world.
As is often said, complicated affairs happen in wealthy families and no exception for Andersons. Steve Anderson, his father abandoned his mother because of his lovers, which led to her depressive disorder and death at her thirties.
Therefore, Alex hated his father very much and escaped from the “jail” at eighteen years old. It's also the time that Jessica's grandfather met him and married Jessica to him.
But now the only person who knew his true identity, passed away two months after their marriage. So Alex's secret was buried in Lockes.
Moreover, God played a joke on his father that he got a bad disease and Alex is the only heir of him, and the family as well. So he commanded Wiz to persuade him to returen to Andersons.
When these thoughts were like a slow-motion movie in his head, he was already in a taxi to Burminham's Hall, where the birthday party would take place. And in his hand was a diamond neatly wrapped in a velvet box.
When he arrived, Alex saw that the party was about to start, the guests were almost complete, and everyone from the rich or super rich quickly went to the house's main hall, where the party was held. Soon, he saw Jessica, the beautiful girl who stood out from the crowd.
Alex walked towards her. She is a beautiful girl and the only one working in the family.
She wore a long cobalt blue dress, a cleavage dress that revealed her sexy cleavage, and a low-waist skirt that showed every curve of Jessica's body. It was knee-length and had a split, which looked very sexy but not revealing. The cobalt blue color also made her fair skin stand out.
Additionally, she tied her hair in an orange bun, exposing the nape of her neck, incredibly sexy. Jessica's face was lightly made up, but exactly showing her beauties.
Although Mr. Locke had given her some shares in the group, her life in the Locke family was not so good because her grandmother Mrs. Locke preferred her cousin - Jack.
Seeing him approaching, Jessica asked:
"Where did you go? I've been looking for you since the party started. Grandma will be mad at you if you don’t show up." Jessica frowned and blamed Alex.
Alex was about to answer but Jessica continued:
"Have you prepared a birthday present for Grandma?"
"Sure, it’s ready." He replied in confidence.
Jessica felt relieved. She was always afraid of Mrs Locke, her grandmother. Finally, Jessica did not forget to advise:
"Today, no matter who teased you, don’t refute. Even if it is an insult, you have to be patient."
"Yes, I will." Alex replied cautiously. It’s the final time for him to participate in Locke's party, he would bear it, he thought in mind.
"Hey, parasite Alex." A male voice filled with sarcasm resounded behind them. Jessica and Alex turned around and saw that it was Jack - Jessica's cousin.
Although they felt annoyed, Alex and Jessica still kept calm. Jack approached with a mocking smile. He said, "Alex, the disgrace of Lockes."
Jack purposely spoke loudly for the surrounding people to hear, as expected, they burst out laughing.
Jessica lowered her head that she still felt so embarrassed to marry such a husband, only did the housework at home.
Alex didn't want to cause trouble for Jessica tonight. He knew things like this would happen anyway, and he was accustomed to it.
"Can you fill the wine glasses for all the members and guests here?"Jack spoke, then raised the empty wine glass in his hand."
This was a wildly exaggerated request because Alex would be nothing more than a servant for the Locke family if he did.
"My wine is empty, Alex, pour it for me. Now, let's start with me."
Hearing Jack's words, the others followed suit and were extremely happy. They handed the wine glass to Alex. Some people have just finished drinking alcohol.
Faced with their insults, Alex clenched his fists and wanted give Jack a big punch, but he couldn't do it.
Seeing him hesitating, Jack continued," Is this what you are famliar with? Uhh.. well, I mean, in Jessica's home, don't you serve them in this way? Uhhh... "
Although Alex felt angry, he thought about Jessica's words and decided to step up. He poured the wine for Jack at first but some dropped Jack's new shoes, which gave Jack an excuse to distress him again.
"Oh, Jesus, you got my new shoes dirty. How will you redeem yourself? Give you two choices: the one is to compensate me with one million dollars; the other is to lick the stain on it."
Alex was totally irritated by Jack's behavior. But at this moment, Jessica suddenly pulled him back. She looked at Jack with angry eyes and growled:
"Jack, an intelligent person is like a river. The deeper it is, the less noise there will be. Do you think you are a talent? Remember that the money you are spending is also from the company, you are consuming the company's assets to embezzle into your fund!"
Hearing Jessica’s words, Jack's pale face froze for a moment. And Alex was a bit surprised that she dealt with the trivals for him.
Just when the atmosphere went tense, from above the stands, Mrs. Locke's voice suddenly sounded:

"It is a fake stone!" This statement was like a thunderbolt to Alex. He couldn't believe it because his butler had purchased it.

It was a pure slander from Mrs Locke, who he always respected. but Mrs Andrew, his mother-in-law, stepped forward and pulled him back before he explained, giving him a painful pinch. "Mom, I'm sorry about this." Mrs. Andrew was afraid that he would make grandma even more annoyed. She rebuked him, "Alex, who the hell do you think you are. How dare you retort to Mrs Locke? You can't even have doubts on a letter spoken from Mrs Locke." Alex couldn't believe what was happening. It was pitch black around him.

Babel Hotel, which looks like a tower, extremely high and its top covered by the clouds, is regarded as the tallest building in the city and possessed by the Forest Group. As Alex entered the hotel, before he could do anything, a voice suddenly sounded: "Stop!" His footsteps stood still, he turned his head towards the source of the voice, seeing that it was a man in a hotel uniform. He walked over and stopped in front of Alex. The other man cast an appreciative and judgmental gaze from above and below him. Then say: "Who are you? What are you here? This is not a place to sell goods, beggars or multi-level." Hearing those words, Alex frowned, then lowered his head, looking back at his body. He was wearing a T-shirt, a thin shirt over it, jeans underneath and a pair of sandals on his feet. Because Jessica dragged him out of the house just now, he could not change his slippers, still wearing slippers. Her clothes were also stained from the fall in front of Jessica's house. So is th

Yet Jessica was standing under that weather waiting for the manager of Forest Group, Jascop. The security guards kept her out of the lobby, and they told her it was a new rule that the vice president had set up. Jessica raised her hand to wipe the sweat, and the sun's heat scorched her skin. Just when Jessica thought she couldn't wait any longer, a voice suddenly sounded behind her. "Jessica, it's you. What are you doing here?" A sharp female voice sounded. Jessica turned her head and saw a sexy girl with a fiery body walking towards her. She tossed her hair, curly blond hair swaying with every step she took. She puffed out her chest, haughtily walking over to Jessica. "What a coincidence, Jessica." Seeing her approaching, Jessica felt disgusted. It's Moona, who always compete with her in many aspects: outlook, education, boyfriend, etc., also came here today for the coope

His future wife lay right here.Alex arrived at the hospital in the middle of the night, and Isabel’s room was already empty. Her family had left; they were all exhausted after days of tense waiting at the hospital. That gave him the opportunity to have some private time with Isabel. He approached her bedside, gently caressing her smooth cheek, and his eyes became moist.It was uncertain whether it was because the act of pretending to be a family for these days was too real or if it was the love that had been quietly growing over the years, but Alex felt his emotions surging intensely.

Chapter 146: In the end, everyone walked out into the light.
Rihana quickly untied Alex, ignoring Loki’s suffering nearby. Alex thanked her and grabbed a gun that was out of ammunition, directing a disdainful look at Loki. He approached and stomped on Loki’s bleeding wound, as an act of vengeance for what had just happened. Alex wasn’t one to hold back or forgive easily.“Tend to his wound. Don’t let him die,” Alex ordered, looking sternly at Rihana. Under Alex’s firm gaze, Rihana went closer to Loki, ignoring his threats and insults. She efficiently tore a piece of cloth from her own clothing, carefully covering the wound to stop the bleeding. Loki’s face turned even paler, and he could do nothing but mumble in pain.Meanwhile, the sound of approaching police sirens grew louder. Loki looked at Alex with suspicion. He couldn’t find his phone; it was no longer with him. He wondered how the police had been called. Were they in on this from the beginning? When had things spiraled so out of control?Failing to properly investigate Alex was a grave
Chapter 145: At this moment, he knew he had succeeded.
Loki doesn’t want to say much to this guy. He didn’t care about the reason anymore. All that he had investigated was enough to send this guy back to hell.Loki is sure that even if he pulled out a gun and blew his brains out, this guy wouldn’t say a word.But thinking that in the future the chairman might lose a lot of information because of this, Loki had to patiently ask a few more questions.“What is your real name? Don’t cross me. I have to spend so much time and effort because of you, be a little more reasonable, otherwise I will explode your brains.”“Even if I say it, you still can’t determine what is the truth, right? If I tell the truth, will you let me go?”“Okay, if it’s important, you’ll get out of here alive.”Alex almost burst out laughing for a moment. With that look in his eyes that only has murderous intent, who else is he trying to fool? Let him live. He is not a three-year-old child.Alex kept spinning his brain, thinking about how to get out of this situation. It w
Chapter 144: What was the goal of these individuals?
“Could you please total these items?”In the morning, at a convenience store, Alex was waving his hand to pay for some essential items, all of them ingredients for baking. He wanted to bring them home for little Cherry because she had a baking competition coming up at school, and he wanted her to practice at home.While waiting to pay, a few young men behind him were engaged in a heated discussion. He typically wouldn’t have paid much attention to the conversation of strangers, but he overheard the name Locke. Recently, they had been a hot topic of discussion everywhere. Alex waited for the cashier to prepare his bill while quietly eavesdropping.“Oh my God, three more people died at the funeral yesterday. This family is in chaos.”“Have you read those conspiracy theories and rumors online? They all claim that some underground power is involved. It seems this family has offended some terrifying figure, so they’ll be wiped out eventually.”“Say what you will, but the police still haven
Chapter 143: No one could save them now.
The night had fallen, and the members of the Locke family had quietly returned. Only Jack’s parents remained at the funeral home, standing vigil by their son’s casket. Mr. Andrew and Jessica had left early, and by the end of the day, Mr. Andrew finally felt a sense of relief. He didn’t know where his wife was, but her absence was the best outcome for all.Because of the recent pressures, Jack’s father was also exhausted from the events. He wanted to temporarily escape the stifling atmosphere of this place. However, he was reluctant to move too far, fearing that his wife might faint again. Mr. Andrew stepped out to the back of the funeral home, walking along a dark row of trees. It was past 11 o’clock, and he saw no one in this chilly, desolate forest.The unusually quiet woods made his already troubled mind even more restless. This was a resting place for many departed souls, and every rustling sound made Mr. Andrew uneasy.A funeral for two. Was this the punishment meant for the Lock
Chapter 142: Mrs. Andrew felt remorse.
Henry’s burning gaze swept over Jessica, like a hunter locking onto his prey within shooting range. It was a look that combined both passion and possessiveness, making Jessica unable to shake off the feeling that this man was truly disturbed.Because disgust stemmed from instinct, she retreated heavily from the funeral room of this grandfather and grandson’s household. She felt that what she had told Jack’s mother earlier was indeed accurate.The complete house reeked of an unsettling odor.That room, in particular, had seen countless distant relatives of the family mocking her, each taking their turn to degrade each other for entertainment, only to now act meek and change their attitudes, presenting their most humble appearances to make amends for the past wrongdoings.Outwardly, everyone’s demeanor was, of course, pleasant. Jessica had lived long enough to know who was sincere among those in the upper class. She was wary of the apparent remorse and repentance, as it all reeked stron
