Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 43: Do you doubt Bettie?
Alex stood up, then followed Jowley to the car. Jowley was always standing by his side, helping him, as if he was afraid Alex would fall off at any moment."Chairman, shall we go to Anderw's house now?"In the car, Jowley asked."No, go to the Locke Corporation first."As Alex speculated, Jessica must be working at Locke Corporation right now. Besides, deep in his heart, he wanted the same because he didn't want to go to Jessica's house right now; there, if he had met Mrs. Andrew, it would be even more troublesome. Alex didn't want to see her again.The car rolls on the road. Since it is not rush hour, the road is very open. Less than thirty minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of the Locke Corporation."Chairman, wait here for me; I'll go in and arrange an appointment with Miss Jessica first.""YES."Alex also feels that it is reasonable, no matter how his legs are now, not convenient to walk, how limited, or how. And he doesn't appear in public.Jowley handled everything v
Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 44: I have contacted the nursing home to register you
Alex cut off Mrs. Andrew's words directly, not wanting to hear any more of her redundant words.Mrs. Andrew was stunned; perhaps Alex had never been so cold to her in the past, so she was not used to it for a while. But very quickly, Mrs. Andrew regained her "wisdom"; perhaps she succeeded, maybe Alex heard that Jessica was sick, or somehow Alex knew. Okay, and see Jessica. All in all, Mrs. Andrew feels she has been a resounding success."Ah, Jessica, she's sick; she's in her room...""Sick?" Alex frowned, though he needed to determine whether this information was true or false. But right now, the most urgent thing is to wait to validate it. Alex directly pushed Mrs. Andrew away, then rushed to the second floor."Jowley, hold her back."Jowley obeyed, and Mrs. Andrew screamed and struggled like a fish caught in a net. Meanwhile, Alex quickly reached Jessica's room; he reached out to turn the doorknob but found the door locked.The door was locked, which was not a good thing, and Alex

Mrs. Andrew, of course, didn't want to go to a nursing home, and she certainly couldn't go there; she had a lot of work to do and a lot of unfinished plans. A nursing home is no different from a prison, or in other words, a grave for older people, Mrs. Andrew thought. In it, the days go by highly dully; there is no casino, no trendy shops, can't spend money, can't eat delicious food, can't watch the things she likes. And Mrs. Andrew said that was the torment and torment of older people. No, she's not old, either. Mrs. Andrew thought so and was highly displeased."Jessica, you are a traitor; you are an unfilial one. You want to put me in a nursing home so you don't have to worry, so you can bring men home and do whatever you want without anyone taking care of you!? I won't go in there; even if I die, I won't!"Jessica was too lazy to argue with her grandmother. And this also surprised Alex momentarily because she had never been so fierce with Mrs. Andrew. Until now, Jessica, in his eye
Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 46: Jessica, did you do something bad to me?
Mr. Andrew carried a load of vegetables, meat, and food. When he saw Mrs. Andrew suddenly rushing out and bumping into him like that, he was surprised:"Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?"But now Mrs. Andrew was not in the mood to scold or argue with Mr. Andrew; she hurried to get up and wanted to continue running, but it was too late now for the people behind her to chase and arrest her.o0oAlex's house,Jowley has been gone for a long time, and Bettie has been restless ever since.Did something happen, she wondered. She picked up the phone, wanted to call Alex, but didn't dare. What could she say to him? Would she say that she took the file and blamed Jessica?Bettie didn't want to.She entered the room, opened the wardrobe, and rummaged inside, and after a while of searching, Bettie finally pulled out a file.Luckily, she didn't burn it or turn it away.Or should she take it to Alex's hospital now and secretly put it outside? That way, you won't even know who it is
Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 47: Boss, boss, see what good we bring to you!
Jessica's mood at this moment was like a fire being poured over by a bucket of cold water; she didn't understand what Alex was saying, but deep in her heart, she also understood what Alex's words meant.And Alex right now doesn't want to go around too much, he said:"The other day, you entered my room at my house, right?"Alex thought he only needed to say the first half of the sentence, and Jessica should have guessed the second half without him having to say it so clearly.And Jessica now, after listening to Alex's words, was like being struck by lightning, standing still for a few seconds before she could react:"I… I…” She tried to think of a practical reason to explain to Alex, but Jessica's mind was now like a tangle of strings just entwined together, extremely chaotic, and the more you lose your temper, the more confused you become. , there is no way to remove it. Her eyes darted around, and she began to think about how Alex knew this, and at the same time, a name popped into h

From the door, two men entered, holding a blue document bag.Henry is now frustrated; listening to them humming in his ear is even more uncomfortable; he presses his hand on the table, saying:"What is up!?"The other two people saw that Henry's face was not good, and they also guessed that he had an upset situation; they smiled flatly and stopped circling but went straight to the point:"I got this today, you see; it's a treasure."Treasure? Henry cursed in his heart; what is a treasure!? What can these two useless people bring to you? Henry glanced up, simultaneously seeing the file they held in their arms. He glanced over it, frowning."What is that?" Then he held out his hand, telling the two opposites to give it to him."Give it to me."And the other two can be sure in their hearts that if their boss sees this, he will definitely reward, promote, and even use them more than ever. Having also worked for Henry for almost five years, they understand that the rivalry between Henry and
Masked Bilionaire Heir Chapter 49: we have to meet in person to discuss this secret
The clues provided by Bettie were too few, not enough to lead Alex to any answers. This made him even more anxious and panicked than ever before."Do... do you remember the appearance of those two men? Can you describe them?" Alex asked Bettie.Alex was furious and disappointed with Bettie, but now was not the time to address that issue, although he would not let it slide.When asked by Alex, Bettie lowered her head trembling, trying to recall and recollect the faces and appearances of the two men. However, at that moment, it was as if an external force was impacting her mind, causing everything to become jumbled, and Bettie couldn't concentrate."They... one was about 1.8 meters tall, the other was about 1.6 meters tall, dark-skinned, and black hair..."Hearing Bettie's description like that, Alex truly felt like going crazy. He put his hand on his head, then turned to Jowley and said, "Utilize all my connections, request the police to investigate this case. Oh, and yes, go to that c

Kimberlys Corporation, Office of the CEO,"Oh my, what's so important that you had to come to find me at this time?"Less than thirty minutes later, the mayor arrived at Henry's private office. As he walked in, he saw Henry hastily grabbing his coat and tidying up some documents as if preparing to go somewhere.What could make him look so rushed and urgent?The mayor speculated as he entered, constantly pondering in his mind. If Henry had obtained important documents from Forest Corporation, how could the mayor investigate without revealing his intentions? Asking too directly could easily lead to exposure. But the problem was that the mayor had no reason to inquire about it.Sweat dripped down the mayor's forehead as his hands rubbed together incessantly. He was currently caught in a dilemma, indeed a tricky situation!Henry's question brought the mayor back to reality. In a short moment, he mentally calmed himself from the door to Henry's desk. Then, as he halted his steps, he slight

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?
The news of Isabel’s injury had spread to the surrounding people. 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
Chapter 148: Death penalty!
After her encounter with Henry, who had threatened and ridiculed her about the Forest Corporation, Jessica appeared supremely confident on the surface, trusting her beloved Alex implicitly. However, deep down, she was extremely concerned.Since that meeting, Jessica diligently tried to gather information about Alex’s company. Finally, she realized that what Henry had said seemed to be entirely true. Jessica felt an urge to help Alex, as the dream project of his island resort was facing serious problems. Irregularities had halted the construction. With abundant resources at her disposal, Jessica was eager to assist Alex.This was also an opportunity to nurture their relationship.With a heart full of excitement, Jessica visited Alex. She dressed up a bit, as becoming the new heiress and owner of the Locke family had given her an entirely different demeanor than her previous meek self. Jessica now loved herself and exuded confidence, believing she could once again captivate Alex’s heart
Chapter 147: Stay put! You’re under arrest!
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. They would also do their best to find suitable caregivers for her and seek a comfortable family.But after a while of living together, both Alex and Isabel developed feelings for the adorable child. They didn’t want to send Cherry back to the orphanage, but they couldn’t have her around either. In the end, they weren’t adults who could meet all the psychological needs of a child. However, if they sent Cherry
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
