Not long after, Thorne arrived in a hurry. When he saw Wolf and his men sprawled out on the ground, his eyes widened in shock."Is this your handiwork?" Thorne asked in surprise."Just some light exercise.” Alexander replied with a grin."Impressive. Let’s talk in the car.” Thorne said, glancing around.Alexander nodded and followed Thorne into the vehicle."Barry’s been rising fast these past few years, even encroaching on some of my business. Boris and I tried to pressure him before, but we ran into issues.” Thorne admitted, looking frustrated.Alexander looked at Thorne in surprise: “Why is that? Can none of you handle that guy?""It's not that we can't suppress Barry, it's because the person backing him is way too powerful. The moment we tried to put pressure on Barry, we ran into all sorts of obstacles and eventually had to give up.” Thorne sighed heavily."Interesting. So, who’s backing him?"Thorne's face grew serious as he shook his head slightly: “We’re not entirely sure yet.
Now with only seven left, the remaining fighters couldn’t help but twitch with anxiety. They realized that they had underestimated Alexander's strength.In that split second of hesitation, Alexander struck again. In a blink, two more fighters were sent sprawling to the ground, crying out in pain.The remaining five finally snapped out of their shock and resumed their attack on Alexander, but he moved with precision and calm. Within moments, each of them met the ground, beaten and groaning.Barry's face grew darker as he watched the men he had placed so much hope in fall one by one. His face twitched uncontrollably. Alexander pointed toward Barry, and a subordinate standing behind Thorne quickly approached, taking Barry’s phone and asking for a contact number."Call the first person in your contacts for me.” Barry weakly instructed.After the subordinate dialed, he held the phone to Barry's ear. Barry said a few words to the person on the other end, and his face lit up with joy.But that joy was short-lived as it aggravated his injuries, making him grimace in pain.“Ouch! It hurts so bad. You just wait—my backup is on the way, and then I’ll show you who really runs Golden Harbor.”Thorne dragged a chair over and placed it behind Alexander. Once seated, Thorne pulled out a golden cigar box and slipped a cigar between Alexander's fingers.A match of snow cedar wood was lit, releasing its distinct aroma.The match lit the cigar, and Alexander took a puff before smiling: “Mr. Pittman, this is a fine cigar. The finest from Havana, rolled on the chests of young maidens, so it carries their fragrance.”Once I Accept The Inheritance: You're All Doomed! Chapter 173: The True Boss!
Geanush glanced at Barry, his entire body shaking with fury. If it weren’t for Barry provoking Alexander, this calamity wouldn’t have befallen him.Geanush’s rage boiled over as he slapped Barry across the face: “You fool! How dare you provoke Young Master Reynolds? Have you lost your mind?”“Yes, yes, Mr. White is absolutely right. It’s all my fault. I deserve to die; I'll accept whatever punishment Young Master Reynolds deems fit.” Barry said, bowing his head, feeling a bitterness sharper than swallowing gall.If given another chance, Barry would have undoubtedly slaughtered both Walden and Tommy.“Grandfather, I must report: it was Walden and his son who paid me 15 million to cause trouble. I was merely following orders. Does this count as me coming forward with valuable information?” Barry pleaded with hopeful eyes.“I already knew that. Did you think naming your instigators would absolve you?” Alexander asked, smiling.“No, I just… I was exposing them, so you’d know who was plott
Turning back, Randi grabbed Mary by the collar, shaking her roughly: “You're just an uncivilized brat with no parents to teach you! My son wanted to be nice and play with you, but you had the nerve to touch him! I'm going to teach you a lesson today! Einar, come here and hit her!""Remember what I told you—our family doesn't need to fear anyone. If someone touches you, you beat them until they're almost dead. I'll take care of everything. Don't let anyone bully you!" Randi shouted.Mary cried and struggled, but she couldn't break free from Randi's grip."Auntie, let me go! I do have parents! He hit me first, and I didn't touch him. You're a bad person! You're both bad people!" Mary sobbed, her eyes filled with tears, utterly pitiful."You lying brat! How dare you call me a bad person? You're just a wild child with no manners. I'm going to rip your mouth apart today and teach you some respect!" Randi snapped, raising her hand to slap Mary. But before she could, she felt someone grab he
Alexander shook off Eleanor’s grip and approached Dewey.Dewey narrowed his eyes, warily glaring at Alexander: “What are you doing? Kneel down for me, right now! Do you hear me?!”“It’s you who should kneel!” Alexander strode up to Dewey and landed punch after punch on his face.With the sound of blows echoing, Dewey’s face quickly swelled, blood spurting from his nose and staining his clothes.“You bastard!”Dewey staggered backward, his vision filled with stars, everything blurring.“Brother, are you okay? You poor trash, you’ve done it now, even daring to hit my brother!” Randi screamed, both scared and furious, emotions swirling wildly.“You dare hit me?! Today, I’ll make you suffer! You think this hospital belongs to you? This is my territory!” Dewey yelled, pulling out his phone to call the head of security.“Hello, Captain Stein, I’m being attacked by a patient’s family! Bring as many men as you can, right now!”“Yes, Chief Jones, hang tight, I’ll be right there!”Dewey pockete
Dewey was frightened, never expecting Talon to support Alexander to such an extent.Thinking about his position as department head, the generous commissions from selling medicine, and the attractive pharmaceutical representatives willing to offer him anything, Dewey made up his mind."I’ve realized my mistake. I shouldn't have defended my family without knowing right from wrong. In a moment of impulse, I made a grave error, tarnishing the hospital's image. I promise to correct my ways and hope Young Master Reynolds can forgive me and give me a chance to turn over a new leaf.” Dewey finished, looking at Randi with a hint of pleading.If Randi contin
Suddenly right now, Talon hurried over, trying to diffuse the situation: “It’s all just a misunderstanding, Vice Chairman Miller. Please, let me explain…”“Explain what? My wife, son, and brother-in-law were attacked at your hospital, and now you want to explain? It’s too late for that!” Brogan waved him off, shouting.Talon was terrified. Facing someone who could shut down his hospital like Brogan, he could only offer polite words and forced smiles.But Brogan wasn’t giving him any chance to fix the situation, making Talon feel utterly helpless.Talon approached Alexander and whispered: “Young Master, this is the vice chairman of the Medical Association and one of our top supervisors. This isn’t easy to handle.”“It’s a small matter.” Alexander replied calmly.Talon immediately felt more confident. If Young Master said it was a small matter, then it must be.Seeing Talon speaking with Alexander, Brogan snapped: “Director Byrne, what are you chatting with him about? Grab him, strip hi
