Alexander nodded slightly at Remington, which filled the latter with such joy that his smile blossomed like a rose, his face flushed with excitement."Youth Master, please, step out of the car.""Alright."Alexander responded with a brief hum as he stepped out of the Bentley.Because he had arrived in a hurry, Alexander hadn’t changed his clothes. As soon as he stepped out, the people around Remington glanced at Alexander's attire and were momentarily dazzled.Had it not been for the fact that Alexander arrived in a Bentley belonging to the Dragon Sect, they might have thought he was an imposter pretending to be the Young Master of the Dragon Sect.Remington's lips twitched as he tried to find the right words but hesitated, afraid that saying the wrong thing might offend Alexander. He turned to exchange glances with the other local magnates behind him.Remington Phillips: "Is it trendy now to dress casually for banquets? Are we overdressed compared to the Young Master of the Dragon Se
However, Laurie only gave a fake smile.With the mysterious rich young man right in front of her, Laurie had no interest in being Sutton’s girlfriend. She was already plotting how to get close to that mysterious rich young man.If she succeeded, she would directly leap into a prestigious family!Someone like Eleanor would have to bow to her from now on!Seeing that Laurie wasn’t taking the bait, Sutton felt a bit irritated.Not long ago, Sutton had boasted to his friends that he would definitely get Laurie, but seeing her not respond to his advances now made his anger rise. He wanted to show off his power to Laurie.At that moment!They heard the sound of footsteps, and Sutton turned his gaze to see Alexander and his group slowly approaching.However, because everyone was wearing masks, no one could recognize anyone.Seeing Alexander’s group wearing masks, Sutton was momentarily stunned, wondering why there were masked people in the Sea Swallow Pavilion. It seemed ridiculous.Then, se
"Dammit! Don’t you know you shouldn’t hit someone in the face?" Sutton, feeling utterly humiliated, had initially wanted to show off his masculinity in front of Laurie but was now left looking like a fool after Alexander’s punch. "You son of a—I'll beat you to death!" Sutton roared in anger, clenching his fist and charging at Alexander. "A good dog doesn’t block the road. If you want to be beaten, I’ll oblige." Alexander, still masked, didn’t hold back. He turned and delivered a stylish high kick straight to Sutton’s chin. If no one recognized him, there was no need to hide his true strength. Sutton suddenly felt like he had lost his connection to the earth as he flew backward. Thud! He hit the ground hard, feeling as though every bone in his body had shattered. Laurie and the other wealthy socialites watching from the sidelines stepped back three paces, all lookin
To make Ramsay ignore his own son’s life and ruthlessly kick him in a vital spot proved how powerful this top-tier rich man was.Laurie thought to herself.Ramsay turned back, bowing deeply at a 120-degree angle to Alexander: "Young Master, it’s my fault for not teaching my son properly. Please, Young Master, punish him as you see fit. If you say the word, I’ll beat this brat to death today as a service to society!"Ramsay spoke with determination, willing to sacrifice even his own son to please Alexander.The expressions on the faces of the other wealthy young men turned sour; they had only intended to watch the show, but now they realized they were witnessing a brutal example.No, this wasn’t just a brutal example. Considering Sutton’s status among them, this was clearly a case of killing a monkey to scare the chickens!Compared to Sutton, most of the rich young men here didn’t even come close in family status, so the comparison was stark.Everyone’s eyes were now fixed on the myste
Hearing the support from the other rich young men, Laurie smiled inwardly, though her face still showed sadness as she continued to gaze at Alexander.“Ha ha.”From behind his mask, Alexander let out a faint laugh, then turned and walked directly into the Radiant Hall.The crowd parted to let him pass, forming a path to the grand hall as they watched him disappear inside.Laurie stared blankly at the masked figure’s retreating back, not understanding what he meant.Was that laugh all there was?She had put on such a performance, and all he did was laugh?Didn’t she have enough charm to arouse a man’s protective instincts?No matter how hard Laurie racked her brain, she couldn’t figure out what that laugh meant.Laurie clenched her teeth so hard that they made a creaking sound. She stomped her foot angrily and whispered: “Just wait and see, I don't believe that a cat wouldn't eat fish!"Similarly, Chairman Phillips and the others were racking their brains, trying to figure out if Alexa
Even those wealthy and prestigious families who visit Sea Swallow Pavilion might be able to order these signature dishes, but they could never get Philo to cook for them. The cooking was always done by Philo’s disciples, and the taste was far inferior. "Philo himself cooked this time. Last time Remington hosted a party, he wanted Philo to cook, but Philo refused. In the end, it was Philo’s senior disciple who did the cooking." "I’ve heard that Philo’s culinary skills are highly regarded in the chef community. He can even outperform a three-star Michelin chef, and the dishes he prepared for the state banquet were praised by the mayor." "Why do you think Philo is currying favor with this Young Master? What kind of status does this Young Master have? Even the second-generation heirs of multinational corporations don’t receive such treatment." Hearing the murmurs around her, Laurie fumed inwardly, her eyes constantly drifting toward Alexan
At this moment, an unprecedented sense of grievance surged up from the depths of Laurie's heart. Although she couldn't understand why this mysterious young master was treating her this way, Laurie had no face left to stay here any longer. If she continued to stay, it would only bring her more humiliation.Covering her face with both hands, Laurie burst into tears and ran straight out, with her close friends hurriedly following behind.A group of wealthy young men collectively sighed in regret, though it was unclear whether they were sorry for Laurie or for the glass of wine worth more than thirty thousand dollars per bottle."You've got to hand it to the Young Master. Even someone as beautiful as Laurie couldn't catch his eye. He probably only associates with world-famous celebrities. To him, our goddess Marshall might just be like the prettiest girl in a small town.""Tsk tsk, to pour out a glass of Romanée Conti worth over thirty thousand dollars like that—such flair! And more impor
Seeing Alexander turn his back on her, Laurie angrily swung her handbag at him, but her aim was off, and the bag merely brushed his shoulder."You’ve gone too far. I can tolerate a few insults, but hitting me? What do you take me for?"Alexander turned back, his face cold with anger."I take you for trash, a useless man. Now, pick up my bag, or I’ll make sure you regret it today!"Laurie stood with her hands on her hips, yelling like a shrew.Alexander stared silently at Laurie, who glared back at him in fury."Alexander, you useless piece of trash, are you trying to rebel? Do you still want to stay with the Marshall family? If you don’t want to end up out on the street, pick up my bag now!"Laurie raised her chin and shouted, finally finding a sense of superiority over Alexander.Alexander laughed bitterly, remembering the satisfaction of pouring wine over Laurie's face earlier. He turned and walked toward the handbag lying on the ground.It’s okay.After all, he was still living off
