Blaine Welsh merely smiled, slightly bowing toward Eleanor, then glanced at Alexander, who stood calmly nearby, and prepared to leave with his entourage.Old Mr. Marshall, not wanting to miss this opportunity, quickly rushed forward, saying: “Chairman Welsh, did you personally bring this contract?"Blaine finally acknowledged Old Mr. Marshall, smiling: “Ah, Old Mr. Marshall, yes, after careful consideration, I believe your company’s business philosophy aligns well with Welsh Max. Moreover, I’ve looked into Ms. Marshall, and she’s quite capable, so congratulations."As he spoke, Blaine extended his hand.Old Mr. Marshall, in a daze, shook Blaine’s hand, his mind reeling.After that, Blaine didn’t stay long and quickly took his leave.The atmosphere in the hall finally eased, and everyone stared at Eleanor, who was still holding the contract.She... she actually did it!Eleanor was still in a daze, her mind buzzing.Suddenly, she recalled what Alexander had said to her—that the contract

When she returned home, Valeria brushed off all the frustration from the party, expressing her excitement and joy: “Oh, my daughter is so talented, securing a contract with the Welsh Max Corporation. Such a lucrative deal gives our family hope."Rodger was sitting on the sofa, brewing warm tea, smiling silently."Hey, Rodger, what do you think the old man means by this? Last time, he agreed that if Eleanor secured the contract, she would get the vice president position. Now, he's going back on his word. What's this about?" Valeria suddenly recalled the party and felt dissatisfied.Rodger sighed and said: “Didn't you see? The vice president position has long been decided to go to Tommy. Our Eleanor doesn't stand a chance. After all, the Eco Vision Pharmaceutical company will be handed over to Tommy eventually.""How can that be! He clearly agreed in front of so many people. How can he go back on his word?" Valeria was anxious."Then go talk to the old man.” Rodger said.This...Valeria

At the same time, Eleanor was in her office, quickly scrolling through the messages in the group chat, clenching her fists tightly.She angrily smashed her phone, wanting to explain, but a series of typed words ended up being deleted in frustration.Afterward, she cried bitterly at her desk for a while before calming down to continue her work.Some things, the more she cares about them, the more she refutes, but others believe it even more.Just then, Laurie suddenly burst into the office, holding a stack of documents."These documents need your signature.” Laurie coldly said. Her position in the company wasn't high, just the head of the marketing team, and she had to seek Eleanor's approval for everything, which made her very unhappy."Oh, right, your daughter's birthday is on the 23rd. That useless Alexander won't be able to celebrate it with that poor girl."Laurie mocked: “I heard that a rich guy has rented the largest and most luxurious hotel in Golden Harbor to celebrate his dau

Inside the Marshall family company, all the family members and senior company leaders were furious. If it weren't for Alexander and Eleanor, they wouldn't be the laughingstock of others.The Marshall family had almost gone into hiding for the past few days, even the elder chose to recuperate in the old house.In previous years, around these two days, the Marshall family would have been preparing a grand birthday celebration for Mary, but this time was different."Damn it! If it weren't for Eleanor and Alexander, our Marshall family wouldn't have to face such humiliation!""That Alexander is a disgrace to men, he should just die! Take that illegitimate child with him!""Eleanor is also a jinx. Because of her, we've had to endure criticism and ridicule from others."A group of young members of the Marshall family gathered together, angrily discussing, as if they wanted to tear Alexander and Eleanor apart!Tommy simply smirked, a look of anticipation on his face."Tommy, what are you smi

The 23rd finally arrived.The day that shook Golden Harbor had come.On this day, the entire media of Golden Harbor flocked to Skyline early in the day to prepare.At eight o'clock in the evening, as night fell, Skyline was brightly lit, becoming the most dazzling focal point of the city!Dozens of nearby streets were also aglow with neon lights, and the crowd surged, causing traffic jams for a time. People swarmed to Skyline to witness the spectacle, to catch a glimpse of the mysterious billionaire who had booked the entire Skyline for the night!Even the hotels and shopping centers nearby were packed with people, all holding their phones, eagerly awaiting the spectacle to unfold.Because tonight, Skyline had spent a fortune to create an open-air crystal palace on its rooftop, like a blooming white rose. The sparkling glass and roses on the ground created a dreamlike scene that every woman in the city envied.Tonight, in the White Rose Crystal Palace, where the white light illuminate
Once I Accept The Inheritance: You're All Doomed! Chapter 32: Extreme Humiliation!
Inside the crystal white rose palace, after the initial emotions had settled, Eleanor looked seriously at Alexander and asked: “Did you prepare all of this?”Holding Mary, Alexander turned to look at Eleanor, knowing she would ask this question. He replied: “Yes, but I also relied on someone else's favor. When the mysterious billionaire didn't show up initially, I contacted the owner of Skyline, and they let me rent it for an hour.”Hearing this explanation, Eleanor felt a sense of relief, realizing she had been worried for nothing.“Eleanor, I'm truly sorry. These past four years have caused you so much suffering. But from today onward, I, Alexander Reynolds, will never let anyone look down on you again. I will also make sure Mary calls me ‘Dad’ in front of everyone!” Alexander said, looking at Eleanor with sincere determination.Eleanor's face had been stained with tears and seemed to have all the pain and grievances from the past dissolved in that very moment.“Alexander, do you kn

Back home, Valeria was already waiting in the living room. Seeing Eleanor and Alexander approach one after the other, she finally pointed at Alexander and shouted: “Alexander, where did you take my daughter? You know what today is, and you still took her out. Do you want to disgrace our family?!”Alexander tried to explain: “Mother, you misunderstood. I took Eleanor to…”“Shut up! Since you’re both here, I’ll make this clear once and for all!” Valeria, exuding a cold aura, sat on the sofa, pulling out the household register and marriage certificate, slamming them on the coffee table: “Tomorrow, no matter what, you two are getting divorced!”Valeria had endured enough of her useless son-in-law, Alexander. Today, her old friends had mocked her again.“Mother, what’s wrong with you? I won’t divorce Alexander. Don’t you know, today he took me and Mary to…” Eleanor quickly tried to explain.But Valeria interrupted her, with a cold expression, in a posture that said she wouldn’t listen to a

Regarding Alexander, early in the morning, he also went to work.As soon as he stepped into the store, he could feel the unusual glances from the surrounding staff, with everyone pointing at him.Although Alexander felt a bit uneasy, he remained calm, silently picking up the duty roster for the day, changing his clothes, and sitting in the employee lounge, waiting for a client to call his name."Oh, Alexander still dares to come to work, not afraid of losing face, huh?""Haha, what does he have left to lose? His dignity is long gone! Just think about how miserable his wife must feel after last night’s incident at Skyline, it must have been quite a blow to her!""A worthless person is just that—a useless person. Having someone like him in our store is such a disgrace. If it were me, I would have quit long ago!"A group of men in white uniforms and women in pink uniforms pointed at Alexander, whispering among themselves, their words full of mockery.Alexander could only shake his head i

Please continue reading there.***Looking at the smile on Alexander’s face, Devlin felt as if he was seeing the real-life version of a devil’s grin.The smile was truly terrifying and horrifying. Coupled with the pain in his hand at that moment, Devlin suddenly collapsed, unable to hold on any longer."If I tell you everything, will you let me go? What about my other brothers?" Devlin asked hesitantly."Of course, I’m Alexander, and I’m very trustworthy. I’ve never gone back on my word.” Alexander said."Alright, then I’ll tell you. What do you want to know?"Finally, Devlin admitted defeat.Gabe scratched his head, silently thinking that Young Master Reynolds was really something. Besides, Young Master Reynolds was cruel enough. Stepping on one of Devlin’s hands, he was definitely the epitome of a villainous character.Laurie looked at Nana and,

Alexander, unaware that a large operation was being set up against him, was sitting in the front passenger seat, feeling a headache.Nana and Laurie were in the back seat, arguing the entire way, neither willing to give up. The two were still bickering without lifting a finger.Alexander tried to intervene several times but couldn’t stop them, so he closed his eyes and pretended not to hear anything.Nico secretly chuckled and whispered to Alexander: “Master, isn’t this the so-called happy headache?”“Happy headache, my ass. It’s just a headache, not happy at all. Why has it turned into this? This shouldn’t be happening.” Alexander rubbed his temples, beginning to reflect on the past and wondering where he had gone wrong. Why had Laurie’s attitude changed so drastically?Could it be that Laurie had upgraded her tactics, feeling that the previous approach didn’t work on him, and thus had switched to a new one?The more Alexander thought about it, the more confused he became. Finally, h

The mention of Tome was like a scar being ripped open in Laurie's heart. Nana's blunt remark made her grit her teeth in anger."Hmph! You little vixen, are you after Alexander? I’m warning you, Alexander belongs to the Marshall family. You’re not allowed to have any ideas about him. Eleanor, you need to be careful of this little seductress. If you want, I can help you keep an eye on Alexander and go with him."Laurie finished speaking and smugly glanced at Nana, feeling as though she had come up with a perfect excuse.Nana clenched her teeth in fury, wanting to pounce on Laurie and bite her.The two women glared at each other, refusing to back down.Nico, meanwhile, quietly moved aside, feeling like he was watching a palace drama unfold. He couldn’t help but admire his master—only a truly powerful man could have women fighting over him.If it were an ordinary man, no woman would care.Let alone compete for him. A man who had women competing for him was proof of his greatness.Alexande

Queen Master’s face darkened further, and the sense of unease in her heart grew stronger."So you’re saying that Alexander is much stronger than you?""He’s stronger than me, but if it came to a life-and-death battle, neither of us could be certain of the outcome.” the head of the guards replied, feeling that if it were a desperate fight, he still might be able to defeat Alexander, or at least injure both of them."Increase my protection level. I need the tightest security!"Queen Master said seriously."Understood, I will implement the highest level of protection."Queen Master weakly waved her hand, and the head of the guards smartly stepped back.Wilbur whispered: “Don’t worry too much about Alexander. I’ve already contacted several experts. In the end, we can make him unable to withstand it.""What about the development of the enhancement drug?" Queen Master asked abruptly.Wilbur was momentarily stunned, then quickly responded: “The enhancement drug isn’t stable yet. It has very

After hearing Alexander’s report, Ward immediately understood what was going on.“Young Master Reynolds, I know those people. They are from Southern Mountain, a bunch of hot-headed drifters. They know how to keep a low profile, and it’s basically impossible to catch them. The only way is to drive them away. How about this: I can send a small team to watch over your construction site and scare them off.”Ward intended to ensure his lover’s safety more securely. Since he had decided to curry favor, he would go all the way. He directly dispatched a small team to the construction site as security guards to make sure nothing happened there.“This only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. Moreover, if they pull off something else, we’ll be even more passive. Do you know their background? Tell me directly.”Ward pondered for a moment, tapping his fingers on a file on the table.“They have ties to the geomancer from last time. I suspect that it’s people from his sect who are unwilling to

After visiting Mary, Alexander, Nana, and Nico left the hospital and drove back to the company.Pushing open Eleanor’s office door, Alexander saw her working and smiled: “Honey, what are you busy with?"Eleanor lifted her head to look at Alexander, then glanced at Nana and Nico behind him, feeling slightly suspicious.Earlier, Alexander had left on his own, but now he had returned with Nana—and Nico was with them too?Could it be that Nico was secretly helping Alexander and Nana stay in touch, covering for their secret meetings?A flood of thoughts raced through Eleanor’s mind, and she gradually felt a tinge of jealousy."What were you all doing just now?" Eleanor’s voice was slightly strained."I just finished some business and happened to run into Nana and Nico wandering around, so I took them to visit Mary. Lately, Mary has been learning all sorts of nonsense from the patients in the neighboring ward. Once her treatment is done, we should bring her home as soon as possible.""Oh, a

Joaquin sensing Queen Master’s thoughts, spoke slowly: “I think Alexander only has a few tricks up his sleeve. Xavier is an unruly fighter, relying solely on his physical strength. Anyone who undergoes proper training can defeat him.”“Joaquin, do you really think so?” Queen Master asked coldly.Joaquin shuddered, lowering his head in a panic, his voice mumbled: “I just speak my mind. I’m not saying it’s necessarily right.”“Hmph, while I may not understand everything, I know the basics. Xavier may not be a top-tier fighter, but he can still reach the level of a high-ranking fighter.”“Among the Dragon Sect’s guards, there are plenty of people stronger than Xavier. But if we talk about who could easily overpower Xavier like Alexander did, I’m afraid not many could. Over the years, Alexander must have been biding his time. His ambition is truly terrifying!”Wilbur quickly added: “You’re right. Alexander really has a fierce ambition. I’ve seen through this guy’s ambitions long ago. He m

Joaquin respectfully said to Queen Master: “Thank you for upholding justice for me, Queen Master. I am truly, truly grateful.”“Enough with the pretense. You said you wanted to get close to Alexander and obtain the secret key. Why haven’t I seen any progress?”“I’ve been waiting for the right opportunity. I can’t make it too obvious, don’t you think?” Joaquin replied with a sycophantic smile.“Hmph!”Queen Master snorted coldly, dismissing Joaquin.Just then, Wilbur entered with a tournament schedule in hand, frowning slightly: “The match between Alexander and Xavier has been canceled. I’m still investigating the exact reason.”“Canceled? What happened?” Queen Master’s expression darkened with displeasure.Knock, knock, knock.The door to the private room was knocked upon, and Thorne entered with a bowed head, his posture humble.Thorne only knew that the people inside this room were of high status, but he had no idea who they were or what their ranks were.“Good evening.

Alexander took Nico and Nana to Mary’s hospital room. When Mary saw Alexander, she immediately rushed into his arms and happily kissed his face.“Dad, you finally came to visit me. Who are these uncle and aunt?”Mary tilted her head and looked at Nico and Nana.Nico’s face twitched. Based on status, he should be on the same level as Mary, but he wasn’t sure whether he was considered an older or younger brother of Mary.“Mary, this is my disciple Nico. You can call him ‘brother’.” Alexander said.“Ah?” Mary looked at Nico carefully, and Nico forced out an awkward yet polite smile.“This is my brother? But he’s older than Dad.”Mary said innocently.Nico’s smile cracked, feeling a bit uncomfortable.“Mary, this is your sister Nana.” Alexander continued with the introduction.Nana puffed her cheeks and said unhappily: “Alexander, the way you introduced me isn’t right. Mary should call me ‘aunt,’ otherwise the family hierarchy will be messed up.”“She’s so beautiful, she’s not an aunt, sh
