Once I Accept The Inheritance: You're All Doomed! Chapter 284: To Trust Or Not?
Marvin was near his wit’s end: “Mr. Sims, at least give us a rough timeframe. If you suddenly tell us to start tomorrow, where would I find people and equipment on such short notice?”“What do you want me to do about it? Even I can’t meet with our boss whenever I want. If you’re so capable, go find him yourself.”Marvin regained his composure, eyeing the phone on Leonidas’s desk: “Could you call Young Master Reynolds and explain our situation? We’re truly in a bind.”“He’s not in the office, so who do you want me to call? I don’t even have his private number. If you don’t believe me, you’re welcome to wait outside his office.”Leonidas shook his head, closing the file and tossing it aside. The monotony of recent weeks had started to wear on him, too.“Let me be blunt with you: our boss is incredibly wealthy, and the Eleanor Missing investment is just a game for him, something he barely cares about. He may have already forgotten about it, and construction will start only when it crosse

Alexander gave Marvin and his brothers an amused look before heading toward the CEO’s office door.Kipling quickly stepped forward, swiped his access card to unlock the door, and gestured for Alexander to enter.Marvin’s eyes widened, and as he tried to follow Alexander inside, Kipling turned and kicked him squarely in the stomach, sending him flying back several meters."Ow! My stomach!"Marvin clutched his stomach as he lay on the floor, feeling as though he’d narrowly escaped death from that kick.Kipling closed the chairman’s office door and coldly said: “Daring to barge into our chairman’s office—are you tired of living?”"Hey! If that worthless man can go in, then why can’t my brother?" Lucas helped Marvin up, coldly questioning Kipling."Who do you think you are to compare with him? He’s a radiant moon, and you’re nothing but fireflies, completely unworthy of comparison." Kipling said with a smug expression.Lucas was about to say something else, but Marvin held up his hand, gr

As soon as the call connected, Marvin immediately smiled: “Auntie.""Marvin, what’s going on? Has Alexander taken you to meet the head of Eleanor Missing yet?" Valeria asked anxiously."Not yet!"Valeria immediately sat up, her anger flaring as she cursed Alexander internally: “What is that useless man doing? What exactly happened with you all?""Auntie, don’t worry. Here’s the situation: we had a bit of a disagreement with Alexander earlier, and now he’s gone into the chairman’s office at Eleanor Missing but didn’t let us go in."Valeria let out a sigh of relief, her previously anxious heart calming down: “Is that all? That useless man—how could he just leave you waiting outside like this? What is he even trying to do?"Marvin was stunned for a moment, he also didn’t know what Alexander was planning, but he was sure that Alexander was making things difficult for them."I think he’s trying to get back at us, and now I’m out of options. Auntie, please call Alexander and ask him to help
Once I Accept The Inheritance: You're All Doomed! Chapter 287: As Terrifying As In A Dream!
He was sure that when Alexander entered this office, it had been empty, but since his arrival, the president of Eleanor Missing had appeared.Marvin felt like he had uncovered the truth, his entire body shaking even more. If Alexander really was the owner of Eleanor Missing, this business deal would likely vanish completely."Do you... do you know Alexander? He just came in, but now he’s nowhere to be seen?" Marvin asked weakly, stammering due to his nerves."Why do you think you can't see him?" Alexander asked, smiling.Alexander didn't hide his voice, speaking in his usual tone, and now that Marvin heard Alexander's voice, he found it strikingly familiar, confirming his frightening suspicions.But why would Alexander be the person behind Eleanor Missing?Isn't he supposed to be a spineless man who clings to women?How could someone supposedly spineless invest six trillion?Whoever could afford six trillion was considered extraordinarily wealthy in Golden Harbor. But whoever they mig

Alexander sat in his office for a while before receiving a call from Eleanor.“What’s up, honey? Missing me already?” Alexander asked with a smile.“Who’d miss you? It’s that Rubin Vick guy—he’s come to the company again, wanting to discuss the partnership in detail. The uncles… want to build a factory on the land gifted by the people from Stormwatch. I think you should come by for a bit.” Eleanor said, not daring to make decisions about the land alone.Alexander chuckled and replied: “Alright, I’ll be right there.”In the Marshall family company’s conference room.Walden and Rubin sat at the head of the table, while Eleanor, Tommy, and Rubin’s assistant sat along the sides.With a smile, Rubin said: “To ensure smooth cooperation, we need to renegotiate several detailed terms. I’ll have my assistant read our side’s requirements.”Rubin’s assistant stood up with a folder: “First, our side wants to emphasize that all cooperation must revolve around Ms. Eleanor Marshall. Should she cease

Alexander pulled out his phone and sent a message to Sherman, asking him to have a lawyer draft a trap-laden contract.Alexander had no intention of handing over all the property documents to the Marshall family. He wanted them to sign a transfer agreement, with a cleverly hidden trap clause.Sherman quickly replied, asking for specific requirements for the contract, but Alexander only sent a simple message: "Just set up a deadly trap in the contract."After reading Alexander’s message, Sherman pondered for a moment, then reached out to top domestic and international lawyers to draft the contract.After a period of intense work, the contract terms were sent to Alexander’s email.Alexander read the contract, then stopped by a nearby print shop to have it printed.Once the contract was printed, he called Sherman: “Any news from Queen Master lately?""Queen Master has gathered many close subordinates for a meeting, as if planning something very secretive. Word is she’ll arrive in Golden

After a moment’s thought, Rubin felt he had a plan to complete his mission. He closed his eyes and began to think things through carefully.After a while, Rubin opened his eyes and called his assistant."In the name of the corporation, organize a banquet at Golden Harbor. Invite notable figures from Golden Harbor—only those who live in Golden Harbor qualify, others aren’t quite up to par. Focus on inviting prominent figures and the young elite of the provincial capital. For Golden Harbor, we just need a few people as background figures."After giving his instructions, Rubin added: “Send an invitation first to Ms. Eleanor Marshall and Young Master Alexander Reynolds. Make sure it’s delivered to their company.""Understood, I’ll get on it right away."The assistant quickly followed Rubin’s orders. After hanging up, he began arranging everything, sending invitations to notable figures and the elite with the right qualifications.Rubin put his phone away, started his car, and muttered to

“Hmph! Just hand over the land to the family, what’s with the contract? Do you have some ulterior motive?” Tommy said suspiciously.“Feel free to read the contract first, we can discuss it afterward.” Alexander said calmly.Mr. Marshall picked up a copy, while Walden grabbed another, reviewing it along with a few others.It looked like a standard transfer agreement, with a few additional clauses that seemed harmless—indeed, it granted the Marshall family free use of the land, and even transferred ownership to a new Marshall company.Latest Chapter

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
Chapter 395: Only Bringing Trouble.
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. I represent

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
