As soon as Liam finished, Alexander pulled out his phone.
“The Silva family, huh? Haha, I’ll have them wiped out in no time.” he said, dialing Sherman’s number.
Sherman sat upright, his eyes fixed on his phone as though waiting for a call, like a warrior preparing for battle. When the phone rang, he quickly answered.
“Young Master, everything is ready. Just give the order.” Sherman said.
“Do it.” Alexander said calmly.
“Understood. The Silva family wi
A storm raged within Liam's heart, with each crashing wave further shaking his already fragile resolve.“Did you hear what I said? You idiot! Answer me! You need to apologize to him right now. You must get him to forgive you and spare the Silva family. If not, you might as well be dead!" Primo's furious voice roared through the phone, finally snapping Liam out of his daze.Liam stammered: “I... I-I will try.""It's not about trying! It's mandatory! If you don't, the Silva family is finished! All of us are doomed! You must beg for his forgiveness, even if it costs you your life!"Liam hung up the phone, feeling utterly defeated: “How… How can you do this? Who are you?" he asked, barely able to speak."Is that really what you should be asking?" Alexander replied coldly.Liam quickly realized the harsh reality of the situation. Anyone with the power to destroy a major family like the Silvas in an instant couldn’t be an ordinary person. A deep sense of fear began to grip him.Trembling, L
"Consequences? Can you not understand plain language?" Alexander chuckled and said: “I already told you, the matter with the Silva family is settled.""Hmph!"Tommy spat at Alexander’s feet, sneering: “Stop boasting! You say the matter with the Silva family is settled? Do you really have the capability to handle something like that?" Just as Tommy finished speaking, the sound of footsteps echoed, and Archie along with the group of thugs who were taken away earlier now burst into the office together. The group of people, including Walden, were frightened and backed into a corner, warily eyeing Archie and his gang."You, you all... how, how did..." Tommy stammered, unable to form a complete sentence out of fear.A man from the relevant department entered the room, smiling as he said: “No need to panic, they're here to apologize."The eyes of Walden and the others widened in disbelief, unsure whether what they were witnessing was real or an illusion.Apologize? These thugs were here to a
Eleanor sat next to Valeria, who held Eleanor's hand and said: “Do you remember Wilma Leyton, my old friend? She used to visit our home when we were younger.""I vaguely remember. What happened to Aunt Leyton?""She mentioned that there’s a jade auction happening in Stormwatch and invited our family to attend. I thought it’s been a while since we’ve gone out as a family, so I accepted her invitation."As Valeria spoke, she watched Eleanor's expression. Eleanor nodded slightly and said calmly: “That’s fine, we can go.""Good, but bringing along that useless Alexander would be too embarrassing. If she sees him, I won’t know where to hide my face. So, the three of us will go, and we’ll leave Alexander behind."Eleanor froze for a moment before shaking her head: “No.""What do you mean 'no'? You just said it was fine, and now you're changing your mind? Has that useless Alexander brainwashed you or something?" Valeria exclaimed."Regardless, if Alexander doesn’t go, neither will I. You sai
Rodger nodded slightly. From his experience, a five-star hotel was already top-tier, but he had never heard of a six-star hotel.If Alexander had claimed there were six-star hotels, Rodger would have scolded him for being ignorant. But because it was Phineas who said it, Rodger believed him entirely."Phineas is so thoughtful. Alexander, look at him, then look at yourself—you’re a hundred streets behind.""Hmph, this trash could never compare to Phineas. He isn’t even worthy to lick Phineas’ shoes. Eleanor, take a good look."Both Valeria and Rodger chastised Alexander, then got out of the car and entered the hotel.Eleanor held Alexander's hand and followed behind them.Phineas handed the car keys to the valet before quickly following the group inside.The hotel’s interior was designed with an eco-friendly theme, seamlessly blending landscapes and greenery into the space, making it feel like stepping into a garden.This design completely altered Rodger and Valeria’s perception of wha
Phineas took out his phone, scrolled through his contacts, and finally stopped at Riker Pugh’s number.Riker Pugh was a Young Master in Stormwatch. Although his family wasn’t the most powerful there, he had wide connections. It was said that no matter where you went in Stormwatch, people would give Riker some respect.Particularly, Paddy Miller, the big boss of Stormwatch, had frequent dealings with Riker, and they often exchanged young, beautiful women.Not long ago, Riker had approached Phineas to help him secure some investment, and they hit it off immediately. This time, Phineas had come to Stormwatch to attend the jade auction, also at Riker’s invitation.After some hesitation, Phineas decisively pressed the call button, as if he could crush Alexander with just that press.The call quickly connected, and Riker’s slightly roguish voice came through: “Phineas, buddy! Have you arrived in Stormwatch yet?""Yes, I’m here. I need you to do me a favor.""Why are you still being so polit
Riker's expression darkened instantly. He stared at Eleanor and said: “Beauty, you're not giving me any respect. If you don’t give me respect, I’ll have to use force, but when you're forced, you’ll just have to enjoy it. Hahaha."Thud!One of Riker’s lackeys was knocked out by Alexander, landing right at Riker’s feet.Riker stopped in his tracks, looking at his fallen lackey lying motionless on the ground, his face instantly changing color."Fuck! You’re all useless, six against one and you still can’t win! Now kill
Alexander and Eleanor left the flower market, strolling around for a while before realizing it was almost time for the auction. They then headed back to the hotel.Rodger and Phineas’ wife sat in the hotel lobby, and upon seeing Alexander and Eleanor return, Valeria raised her hand to wave them over.Seeing Alexander unscathed, looking perfectly fine with no visible injuries, Phineas’ gaze turned suspicious.What was going on?Could it be that Riker Pugh didn’t handle Alexander?Or did Alexander somehow get the better of Riker…?Phineas shook his head. That idea was too far-fetched. If Alexander dared to harm Riker, it would be the height of recklessness. This was Riker's turf, after all, if Alexander had crossed him, he’d likely have been beaten down by Riker's men on the spot.Then, why was Alexander still unscathed?Phineas's mind was filled with question marks.Calling Riker now wouldn’t be the best choice, so Phineas decided he’d ask him at the auction.Valeria's face grew stern,
Phineas led Eleanor and Alexander toward the auction hall: “There’s really nothing interesting at the exhibition. If you want to see something, they have illustrated guides in the lobby. Just look at those.”“Eleanor, if you and your parents fancy anything, let me know. I’ll make sure you win the bid—don’t hold back with me.”Phineas cast a sneering glance at Alexander and added: “As for you, worthless trash, I don’t care. Whatever you want, earn the money yourself. Though, even if you worked your whole life, you couldn’t afford a single bid. Such a pathetic soul.”Eleanor held Alexander’s hand, gently rubbing his knuckles with her thumb, silently comforting him.Alexander smiled at her, ignoring Phineas’s taunts.Phineas, watching Alexander and Eleanor’s show of unity, felt a surge of jealousy, wishing he could take an ax and split their joined hands apart.As they entered the auction hall, they noticed a group of young men and women gathered, likely the rich kids of Stormwatch.Seei
