Paddy gritting his teeth, glared at Alexander, grabbing at his ankle in an attempt to pry his foot from his throat, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t make him budge an inch.

“Let… me… go… I can’t… breathe…”

Paddy’s face was flushed, his skin shifting between shades of purple and red, showing signs of suffocation.

Alexander’s foot on Paddy’s hand began to press down harder. With a slight smile, he asked coolly: “What? Can’t take it anymore? Weren’t you just acting all tough?”

A sickening crack echoed through the room as the bones in Paddy’s right hand fractured under the pressure.

“Ahhh!”

Paddy screamed in agony, cursing himself with regret.

Paddy’s followers recoiled at the sight of Alexander’s calm, cruel smile, realizing he was a far more ruthless figure than their boss.

Thorne approached Alexander, bowing like a loyal servant: “Young Master Reynolds, shall I call someone to handle them?”

“No need. Someone will take care of them soon enough.”

Almost as if on cue, a patrol

    Two days later.In the conference room, Tommy looked smugly at the documents in his hands, sent by Cisco after having his subordinates contact him.Upon being discharged from the hospital, Cisco had thought things over and decided that if he wanted to salvage his dignity, he needed to start from within the Marshall family, uniting them on his side. This way, facing ostracism from the family, Eleanor would likely choose to abandon Alexander.The fastest way to win over the Marshall family was through benefits from cooperation.Thus, Tommy found himself sitting here with a look of smug satisfaction.Walden cleared his throat and let his gaze drift over everyone—Tommy, Eleanor, and Laurie—using the moment to underscore his authority and position.“The company's growth rate has been disappointing lately, especially with the recent contract orders. Not only have we not seen an increase, but there are signs of decline. Eleanor, what’s going on?”Walden slammed his hand on the table as he sp

    Thorne pondered for a moment, understanding Alexander’s intentions, and then picked up his phone to call Robert Perkins.Robert was sitting with Borden Rocha’s group, and as his phone rang, they all grew tense.Robert answered, exchanged a few words, and then hung up: “The CEO of Astra Cure doesn’t get along with Young Master Reynolds. Right now, he’s looking to discuss a partnership with the Marshall family. Thorne thinks Astra Cure’s CEO may use this to target Young Master Reynolds, which is your chance to make amends.”The group looked at each other in surprise. They hadn’t expected an international corporate CEO to get involved.“Astra Cure sells pharmaceuticals and health products, and the Marshall family also deals in pharmaceuticals. It’s likely someone within the Marshall family reached out to Astra Cure to initiate this partnership, perhaps even to make things difficult for Young Master Reynolds’s wife. We should help Young Master Reynolds handle this.”“We should also find a

    Eleanor firmly shook her head: “Even in business cooperation, you can't humiliate others. You're helping him coerce us like this; don't you feel any pangs of conscience?""Insolent! Conscience? Asking you to kneel is hardly coercion! Are you going to tell Alexander to kneel or not? If not, you'll become sinners of the Marshall family!"Cisco lifted his chin, looking down his nose at Alexander, and said leisurely: “Your Marshall family's etiquette is really lacking; you can't even command a live-in son-in-law. I truly doubt your ability to manage an enterprise; perhaps I should find someone else to cooperate with.""Please wait, Director; I will make Alexander kneel before you.” Walden said in panic.After speaking, Walden looked toward Eleanor: “Eleanor, this is a great opportunity for the Marshall family to develop; quickly tell Alexander to kneel before the Director.""No!"Eleanor said firmly."Eleanor, are you crazy? Sacrificing our family's development opportunity for a useless m

    Seeing Tommy, Cisco glared at him in fury: “What cooperation! I have internal issues to resolve. Once I’m done, I’ll deal with that useless Alexander.""And if you don’t make that man kneel before me next time, don’t even think about discussing cooperation again!"Tommy stood frozen as Cisco left. He had thought he could gain favor and become the brightest member of the Marshall family, but reality had dealt him a painful slap.After regaining his senses, Tommy directed all his anger at Alexander; if it weren’t for Alexander, Cisco wouldn’t have left!<

    After Alexander and Eleanor left the company, they drove leisurely down the road.“Alexander, I just feel like everything isn’t real. Why would those real estate moguls gift us such a large plot of land?” Eleanor said, feeling somewhat bewildered.“It’s not that big, only about 500 acres. It’s not nearly enough to build a few high-rises.” Alexander replied casually.“You sound like a real estate tycoon! What do you mean, ‘only 500 acres’? Such a large piece of land is useless to us. The uncles are bound to be watching us like hawks, they might even stir up trouble later.” Eleanor expressed her concern, worried that it could bring further turmoil at home. Besides, with such a large piece of land, she didn’t have the capital to expand the factory.“No rush. Today they’re giving us land, maybe tomorrow, someone will give us factories and equipment. It’ll all come in time.” Alexander said with a smile, then looked out the window: “Let’s go visit Mary and check with the doctor about her con

    Alexander applied a bit of force with his foot, pushing the old woman off. The chubby boy looked wide-eyed in the direction his grandmother was thrown, suddenly frightened.Just as the boy was about to release his grip, Alexander’s other leg lifted, sending him rolling to the ground like a tumbling ball, stopping only when he reached his grandmother.The constant rolling left the chubby boy dizzy, stars spinning before his eyes.Ignoring her pain, the old woman got up and carefully checked on her grandson.Eleanor stepped out of the shop, glanced at the distant old lady and boy, and asked, slightly puzzled: “What happened to them?”"Nothing, let’s go get tickets.” Alexander replied, carrying Mary as he walked with Eleanor to the ticket booth.Mary wrapped her arms around Alexander’s neck, whispering in his ear: “Dad, you’re amazing! You looked just like a superhero.”“Hahaha, I am a superhero. Soon, I’ll fly high with you, Mary.” Alexander laughed happily.Watching Alexander’s family b

    One of the guards, eager to curry favor with Arturo, turned and intercepted Mary, lifting her up.In the guard’s arms, Mary struggled fiercely, slapping him on the shoulders, neck, and face. She even scratched his face with her nails in the chaos.The guard, his face twisted in anger, raised his hand to slap Mary: “You little brat! Are you trying to get yourself killed? You scratched my face!”“No, let go of my daughter!”Eleanor, seeing the guard about to hit Mary, screamed hoarsely, trying to rush forward to save her.The guards stepped in, blocking Eleanor’s path.“You’re asking for it!”Alexander’s eyes went cold. He moved forward quickly, shoving aside the guards in his way.The guard holding Mary raised his hand to slap her, and Mary squeezed her eyes shut, calling out for her dad.Just as Mary felt the wind from the guard’s hand about to strike, Alexander grabbed the guard’s wrist.Then, he squeezed, crushing the guard’s wrist.“Agh!”The guard screamed in agony as Alexander pul

    The chubby boy pouted, shouting angrily: “Dad, are you even a man? Hurry up and take that girl for me, then beat her dad to death! That way, she’ll be mine forever!”With a mother who caused trouble and a son who endangered him, Arturo felt like he was on the brink of despair. He realized his mother and son were clueless about the severity of the situation, and if they kept this up, it would be a collective death sentence for the family.Arturo’s lackeys, now pale and terrified, hastily dropped their sticks and huddled together, crouching with their hands over their heads.“Young Master Reynolds, we’re sorry! We were forced by Arturo, we didn’t want to harm you.”“We’re all decent people, forced by Arturo! Please believe us!” Arturo’s men groveled in apology, terrified of being dragged into the mess any further.The old lady finally sensed something was wrong, her eyes revealing a hint of fear.Joshua approached Alexander and bowed respectfully at a twenty-degree angle: “Young Master

    The group attempted to close in on Alexander, limiting his movements. They knew that if he maintained this level of speed, they were in serious trouble.“You think you can corner me? Not with your pathetic skills.” Alexander sneered.As soon as the words left his mouth, his figure blurred, darting among them like a phantom. The burly men barely had time to react before it was too late. His speed far outstripped their reflexes.Bam! Bam! Bam!A rapid series of impacts echoed through the yard. From the first man sent flying backward to the last one, less than three seconds had passed.In those fleeting moments, Alexander landed over a dozen blows,

    Kolby stopped in his tracks, staring at Michal’s dramatic surrender, and laughed, shaking his fists: “What’s wrong with you? I haven’t even thrown a punch yet, and you’re already giving up? You’re way too cooperative.”Michal, looking like he was on the verge of tears, replied: “What else can I do? I don’t want to get hit. Just treat me like a fart and forget about me.”“Damn, with courage like yours, how are you even a boss? This is hilarious. Hey, you over there.” Kolby pointed at Alexander: “Step up and take a punch from me. When I swing, you fall backward dramatically. That way, I’ll go easy on you and won’t kill you in one blow.”Kolby laughed as he demonstrated a falling motion: “Watch closely. Make sure you fall back like this. It’ll make me look cooler. Those Tai Chi masters on video do it like this, and I want to experience it for myself.”Alexander smiled and nodded, playing along: “Alright, as you wish. I’ll make sure you have the best experience possible.”“Now you’re talk

    The burly man at the door grinned and said: “You guys sure got here quickly. It’s not even 20 minutes. You must live nearby?”“Not really—70 kilometers away. If my guy here hadn’t driven like a maniac, we wouldn’t have made it. I was shaken up so badly, I almost threw up.” Michal replied, leaning against the wall and miming a retch, his performance impeccable.The burly man, clearly annoyed by Michal’s retching, waved them in impatiently: “Get yourself together. Don’t embarrass yourself in front of the boss.”He gestured for them to enter. Because of Michal’s convincing act, the man didn’t bother scrutinizing Alexander.Michal stole a nervous glance at Alexander, gritting his teeth before stepping inside. At this point, there was no turning back. He had already bet everything on Alexander.Tome sat on a swing, swirling a glass of red wine as he turned to look at Money Brightens Eyes beside him.Dressed in a crimson robe, Money Brightens Eyes exuded an air of elegance.

    Nico felt as if he had seen a ghost. This couldn’t be humanly possible. He was already at 380 mph—how could he still be getting caught up to?“Nico, Nico, how’s it going? We can’t even see the taillights of that Mercedes-Benz anymore!” crackled a voice over the radio.“I’m at 380 mph!” Nico growled: “I just managed to lose him!”“Damn! Nico, you’re a beast! 380 mph? That’s legendary speed, man.”“I told you Nico’s the real deal. There’s no way a Mercedes-Benz SUV, even if modified, could reach 380 mph.”“Nico, ease up on the gas a little and try to force that Mercedes to stop. Once he does, we’ll deal with the punk driving it. How dare he try to pass us? He’s got a death wish!”Nico’s face flushed red. He wanted to scream: “I’m barely holding on here!"The Mercedes-Benz kept closing the gap. Looking ahead, Nico saw that less than a kilometer away, the road curved sharply.At 380 mph, there was no way to navigate the curve safely. Even the best driver would slow down. Handling the curv

    Whoosh! Whoosh!The Mercedes-Benz SUV shot past the Lamborghini like an arrow, its immense air pressure rocking the Lamborghini to the side like a leaf swaying in the wind.“Holy shit! It overtook me! Its speed has definitely surpassed 240 mph—I think it’s hitting over 260 mph!” Justine exclaimed in panic.For Justine, 260 mph wasn’t an unusual speed. F1 races regularly hit such velocities, and even Nico’s Bugatti Veyron could easily reach 280 or 300 mph.But for an SUV to achieve such speeds was beyond anything Justine had seen or heard of. SUVs typically participated in endurance challenges, prioritizing rugged terrain capabilities over outright speed.Hearing Justine’s report on the Mercedes-Benz, the other wealthy racers fell silent.The Porsche supercar just ahead of Justine also noticed the menacing approach of the Mercedes-Benz.“I see it too. It’s overtaking me. My current speed is 265 mph.” the Porsche driver reported.Ryon, listening for a while, grew increasingly agitated:

    Michal stared at the new message on his phone, his face twisted with dread: “Boss, Tome's guys didn’t give an exact time. They just said to wait for news tonight and that they’ll inform me of the meeting time at any moment."As he read the message, Michal felt like a blade was suspended over his head, ready to drop at any second.Alexander glanced briefly at Michal’s phone before closing his eyes and saying: “That guy is cautious. Fine, we’ll wait.""Maybe we should book a room first, Boss. You can rest properly. Sleeping in the car isn’t exactly comfortable.” Michal suggested, attempting to flatter him.Alexander shook his head, his voice indifferent: “No need. A quick nap in the car will do."Michal dared not say more. He quietly put his phone away, trying to mimic Alexander’s calm demeanor by closing his eyes and attempting to rest.Time passed quickly, and at 1 a.m., Michal’s phone suddenly rang.Still groggy, Michal fumbled for his phone. When he saw the caller ID, he immediately

    “Tome again.” Alexander muttered: “Seems that bastard keeps causing me trouble. Do you have a meeting set with him? I’d like to join.”Michal hesitated, his heart sinking. Of all the luck, he had to run into someone like Alexander, who now intended to provoke Tome. This wouldn’t end well for anyone.“Boss, how about I give you Tome’s number? You can contact him yourself. I’ll take my men and leave. We won’t step foot in Golden Harbor again.”Michal didn’t want to get involved between Alexander and Tome. No matter how things turned out between the two, Michal was certain his own ending wouldn’t be favorable. The best option now was to slip away quickly.

    Lyle's face turned red with rage, humiliated by the demand."It looks like you don’t want to apologize. Fine, don’t apologize then, but this is an insult to my people!" Lyle yelled, throwing a punch at Alexander’s face.Even though he doubted he could land a blow on Alexander, Lyle had to fight for his dignity.Alexander shook his head and casually threw a punch back, hitting Lyle in the face.Smack! Smack! Smack!Each slap from Alexander sent Lyle’s head swinging like a bell, knocking him off balance. After the barrage of slaps, Lyle staggered against the wall, struggling to stay on his feet."You... you..." Lyle spat blood, stumbling out of the room.He made his way back to the room, where Michal was waiting. Seeing Lyle's swollen face, Michal’s expression darkened."Lyle, what happened? I asked you to escort the two women, but you come back looking like this? Where are the others?" Michal asked in frustration."Mr. Michal, we were attacked. The others were knocked out, and I was th

    Gabriel nodded, pulling out his phone to make a call. After a brief conversation filled with convincing, he finally persuaded Money Brightens Eyes to come and deal with Alexander.“Young Master Tome, my junior brother has agreed to come, but he wants 600 million upfront. He insists on receiving half in advance before he brings his people over.”“600 million? That’s nothing. Give me his account details right now—I’ll transfer the money immediately. Tell him to get here as quickly as possible!” Tome snapped, pulling out his phone. With a fierce and impatient demeanor, he swiftly transferred the money to Money Brightens Eyes.Gabriel made another call to confirm, then gave Tome an “OK” gesture.“He’s on his way. He should arrive tonight or early tomorrow morning. By tomorrow, we can deal with Alexander.”“Hahaha, excellent! I’ll rest tonight so I can enjoy tomorrow. I can’t wait to see Alexander killed—and when it’s over, I’ll stomp on his corpse!” Tome said arrogantly as he retreated to
