"Birth… his child?" Jessica stammered, her mouth speechless. Yet Betie was still smiling at her now."Yes, you and Alex have been married for three years but have no children; what a pity…."Betie's words once again pierced Jessica's heart like an arrow; that's right, they've been married for three years but have no children, not even a single close… Is this one of those? Why did he leave her for another girl?Thinking of this, Jessica couldn't help but feel sad.She also didn't want to stay here any longer, so she said:"Then you go to work; I'll go to the living room.""Yes, make yourself at home."Jessica went to the living room and sat back on the sofa. But sitting still and doing nothing made her restless like the contemporary sofa was a hot pan placed on the stove with the highest heat. Jessica finally couldn't take it anymore and stood up; she turned to look into the kitchen and saw Betie crouched over the oven, utterly oblivious to this direction. Jessica took the opportunity

Forest Corporation,Presidential Room,"Jowley, get someone to follow the mayor. Any action he takes will be reported to me."Alex sat in front of his desk, still staring at the plan for the BHD Discovery Mall."Yes, sir," Jowley replied, then left; at that moment, Isabel also came in from outside, accidentally overhearing the conversation between Alex and Jowley."What are you thinking of doing? What have you been saying to the mayor ever since?"Alex folded the plan with his hand, then raised his head to look at Isabel:"Say what's necessary; make him pay for what he's done.""What does that mean?" Isabel needs help understanding."Make him tell all of Kimberlys' plans, and make him our henchman, spy in the Kimberlys.""Is he trustworthy?" Isabel is still apprehensive about this; what if the mayor pretends to agree, then comes back and informs Kimberlys, becoming a double agent? That would be very detrimental to them.And, of course, Alex also thought of that case; he had never trus
Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 27: You just reported the debt to our family
"Kimberlys has no reason to help you, but I do." Those were the last words Alex said before seeing off the slum dwellers.Finished, he also prepares to go home from work because Jessica is at his house right now; he doesn't want her to know too much, so he will probably think of another solution for her.But as Alex was walking down the parking lot and towards his car, suddenly, from behind now, a voice called:"Alex!"This familiar voice, even if he didn't turn his head, he knew who it was, Isabel."Isabel, you haven't come home yet?"Isabel approached him, then said:"Are you going home now?""That's right. Is something wrong?""Well…' Isabel lowered her head, looking hesitant; she twirled her toes and swayed her bag, expressions of embarrassment and difficulty to say. Alex saw that and spoke softly."If you have something to say, say it; there's nothing to be afraid of between us.""It's not… It's just… um…” Isabel ran her hand through her hair, and finally, after a moment's hesita

Henry's side was noisy for a while but finally quiet again; he replied to Mrs. Jessica:"Did they get a divorce? And yet you don't know that?""That's right… I… I don't know…" Mrs. Andrew also didn't know when Jessica had hidden her divorce from Alex. And then the anger that was still smoldering in her heart until now once again flared up into a great fire. Was she supposed to be the one to know? She's Jessica's mother and Alex's mother-in-law, isn't she? No one in the house has the right to oppose her.But what's important now is not that, but what's important now is that Jessica and Alex are divorced.After thinking for a while, Henry said:"That's not the point; the point is that Alex still loves Jessica. You see, he risked everything to protect her. So there's still hope for this; first, find a way to call Jessica home. Then find a way to bring Alex home and get his money. Do you need my guidance?"Henry thinks Mrs. Andrew is as stupid as a pig, but she is the boss regarding how t

"What? Alex blocked Jessica?" Henry exclaimed, incredulous."Then use another number to call.""I've tried, still doesn't work."Henry raised his voice:"Then it's not like he's blocking anyone; he's already changed his number; Jessica will probably know his new number. Let's make her talk."Hanging up, Henry looked again at the person in front of him, the mayor.o0oMrs. Andrew, after hanging up the phone, immediately went to Jessica's room; she knocked on the door and immediately received a reply from Jessica from inside."Let me go; what do you want? Are you crazy!?""Tell me Alex's phone number, and I'll let you go."Mrs. Andrew thought this intimidation would work, but unexpectedly Jessica shouted at her:"Don't know. But why drag Alex into this?"Jessica began to feel the gravity of the matter. She stood up and headed for the door."What crazy thing do you want to do again? Please forgive everyone, okay? I beg you always. Please stop."Jessica's attitude changed from harsh to he

Very cruel indeed!"Henry…" Alex mumbled the name under his breath and memorized it, then replied to the mayor:"Okay, thank you for this message.""Yes, Yes." After saying that, the mayor quickly hung up the phone. And Alex returned to his desk, picked up the phone, and dialed number one, calling Jowley."Hello, come to my office immediately.""Yes."Less than five minutes later, a knock was on the door from outside Alex's office. He stated:"Come in."Jowley entered, stoutly walking in front of Alex and bowing:"Hello, President. Do you have something to entrust?"Alex interlaced his ears, his face becoming heavier than ever:"I just received information tonight that Kimberlys people will destroy and burn the building materials our corporation has left in the slums. And I need you to confirm this information for me."Hearing Alex say that Jowley's face became more severe than ever. He listened silently to Alex's instructions:"Now you and some others go to the slums to scout the sit
Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 31: But Alex knew that Tom Holland had something to tell him privately
In the distance, where the fire exploded, a reasonably long distance away, it was a residential area, then suddenly burst into flames, accompanied by a highly pitiful scream."Damned!" Alex mumbled, then, without thinking much, rushed towards it. Initially, he had calculated so carefully but still needed to correct things."Chairperson!""Alex!"Jowley, Isabel, and the people in the slums cried out and wanted to chase him but were immediately stopped by the security staff of the Forest Corporation.Then a few bodyguards in protective gear and the fire brigade also rushed towards that house.Alex, Fast, and Furious ran towards the houses, crying and screaming still coming from there. When he arrived, he saw a miserable woman holding a baby or two kneeling outside and crying, crying, and shouting.Alex went there and hurriedly asked:"How many people are inside right now?""Two people, my mother-in-law, and my youngest child, he is only five years old." The woman spoke in sobs; the two

"Miss Potts wanted to come and thank you, but I told you that you are now recovering from illness, unable to receive many people, and she also needs to take care of her family, so I stopped her."Miss Potts that Tom spoke of must have been the woman whose house was on fire that Alex had helped save her mother-in-law and son."Um, how are the son and her mother?""They suffered from smoke inhalation and 20% burns and are now in the ICU because the baby's lungs are also greatly affected.""Do they have Health insurance?""Yes." Tom Holland nodded."Then I will pay for the rest of the medical expenses."Alex said. And when the person opposite him heard that, he was shocked."You want to pay them?""Yes, because the cause of this fire is us anyway."Alex thinks it's probably because his men needed to scout the situation more carefully, leaving out explosives and incendiaries. Or the Kimberlys Corporation did something he didn't know about. But in general, the cause of this incident was al

Chapter 150: The end!
After everything was settled, Alex brought immense joy to the hospital where Isabel was resting. From now on, Cherry had become his child, a member of this small family, and now he only needed one more vital piece to have a perfect family. 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. It seemed like within his heart, emotions were erupting in waves, encompassing deep longing and painful sorrow. If it weren’t for him, she wouldn’t be here, and the p
Chapter 149: Why would this person come here in person?

It wasn’t just Isabel’s parents; it included the Locke family, Alex’s relatives, and even the residents of the impoverished neighborhood.Because they couldn’t reach Isabel, they sent flowers, gifts, words of encouragement, and even money to Alex. Alex expressed they didn’t need to send these things; he could easily handle Isabel’s medical bills.However, it wasn’t just about the material support; it was also about the gratitude of all the people he had helped.A few nights later, Alex received a roughly designed invitation card to a party in the slum area.Unwillingly, these people were here to survive, and yet they organized a party to thank him. Alex didn’t really want to go, but after some thought, he realized he was the guest of honor at this party, and he couldn’t disappoint them. Alex dressed neatly for the occasion and tried to boost his spirits before visiting Isabel in the hospital. He sat by her side for a wh

After all the exhausting work, Alex and Isabel officially gave up their assumed impoverished identities. Both of them changed into new attire and returned to Alex’s mansion. Isabel stayed with him temporarily for convenience in handling their work, and little Cherry still needed a small family.Initially, they had discussed that after finishing their tasks, they would take Cherry back to the orphanage. After all, they were both busy adults with no capability to fully care for a child. If so, leaving Cherry in the orphanage was the right choice, as she could find a new home there.

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
