“Truly impressive, Eleanor. You’re becoming more and more capable. The younger generation really is surpassing us. We’ve all been swept aside.” one of the managers who had a good rapport with Eleanor remarked.
“I must say, Alexander has exceeded expectations too. I think we misunderstood him in the past. Watching Captain Ward show him such respect earlier felt like a dream.”
Several others chimed in with praises, attempting to ingratiate themselves with Eleanor and Alexander.

Joaquin felt as if he had been pardoned, knowing he had passed this test."Thank you for your understanding, Master. I will certainly work harder from now on, and there will be no more problems like this. In whatever I do, I will make sure to report to you in advance.""You are a smart person. There’s no need for extra words from me. If you say you want to stay by Alexander’s side to find the key, then I will trust you. I’ll temporarily assign your business matters to Robert and Baldwin. When you find the key, you can return to manage the business again. At that time, I will reward you handsomely."Queen Master said coldly, making Joaquin's heart shudder violently. This meant he would have to leave everything behind, the business in his hands would be handed over, and getting it back from Robert Perkins and Baldwin Ware was practically impossible.Joaquin felt as if a stone had been dropped on his foot, and this time, Queen Master had completely shattered his livelihood.

Then, the workers began to start up the machinery, and the construction of the new factory officially began.Walden threw down his shovel with a dark expression: “The ceremony is over. I need to get back to work. Uncle, stay here with Eleanor and supervise the site."Every time Walden saw Alexander, his frustration grew. He had no desire to even look at Alexander, especially since Marvin was sucking up to him, which made Walden feel like vomiting.After sitting in the car and breathing deeply for a while, Walden finally opened his phone and pressed on messenger. He looked at the profile picture of Third Mr. Jake, aka Tome Jake, in his contacts.After a moment’s hesitation, Walden sent a few casual photos of Eleanor.It didn’t take long for Tome to reply with a few eye-rolling emojis before asking about her height, weight, and measurements.Walden rubbed his forehead, unsure of how to respond. After a moment of indecision, he decided to call Tome.He tapped to start the voice call, and

Eleanor sighed, unable to refuse: “Alright, where should we meet? Oh, and I’m bringing my husband along—is that okay?”“Huh?” Shelby paused, then reluctantly agreed: “Fine, but we’re going to a beauty salon, so he’ll have to wait outside.”Eleanor glanced at Alexander, who nodded with a smile. Waiting for a bit wasn’t a big deal to him.Seeing his agreement, Eleanor smiled: “Alexander doesn’t mind waiting. Tell me where to meet.”“The café in the mall. I’ll be waiting there. Don’t bail on me.” Shelby instructed.“Alright, see you soon.&rd

Watching Shelby’s back as he left, Eleanor sighed and shook her head, holding Alexander’s hand as she said: “You shouldn’t be so blunt. Saying things like that just makes enemies.”“If making enemies is inevitable, then so be it.” Alexander replied nonchalantly.“But isn’t it better to make fewer enemies? Anyway, let’s go back to the company and get to work.” Eleanor said, pulling Alexander along.The waiter from earlier shot Alexander a venomous glance, then aggressively dialed a number on his phone.“Mr. Xavi, didn’t you ask me to find you a top-tier beautiful woman? I just spotted one, but she’s with a man. They’re heading toward the parking garage.”Xavi Payne narrowed his eyes and smiled: “Are you sure she’s top-tier? This isn’t for me, it’s for Tome. If I’m going to offer her, she has to be perfect, the best of the best.”“Definitely a top-tier woman. Mr. Xavi, you’d better get someone to the elevator now, or she’ll be gone. If she’s not up to your standards, you can come back a

The last subordinate was frozen, stunned by what he was witnessing. Alexander had just taken out one of his own and now stood before him, as if he were facing a demon."Drop the gun, and I’ll spare your life.” Alexander said casually.The subordinate hesitated for a moment, then, fearing for his life, dropped the weapon and sat on the ground with his hands behind his head."Dammit, you’re such an idiot! How the hell did I end up with idiots like you? Damn, you make me sick.” Xavi cursed, furious.Alexander tossed the subordinate who had served as a shield aside and walked toward the one sitting on the ground, smiling as he spoke: "Tell me who you are. The four of you must be from the same group. Speak—what’s your purpose?""We come from Stormwatch. This is our leader, Mr. Xavi Payne. Mr. Xavi wants to establish a relationship with Tome Jake and become their representative in Golden Harbor.

Before long, a group of people emerged. Among them were three foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes. Walking alongside them was a local who appeared to be their translator.When they saw the sign being held up by Thorne’s subordinates, the local stepped forward with a dismissive look and said: “Which one of you is Thorne? Mr. Puckett is here, and this is how you welcome him?”“I’m Thorne Pittman. I came to personally welcome him. That’s already a big favor.” Thorne replied coldly.The local glared at Thorne, about to scold him, but Puckett walked over, laughing: “Oh, you’re Pittman? You really do look just like your picture.”“Welcome, Mr. Puckett

In the office not far away, the guard was chatting with the nurse, and only then did he realize something was wrong. In a panic, he quickly rushed to the patient’s room.The emergency doctor worked on Lucien for a while, then shook his head and said: “The patient suffered from acute heart failure suddenly. The resuscitation was ineffective, and he has passed away."The guard checked Lucien's breath, his face grim as he called Captain Ward to report the situation.Ward arrived and checked the scene. He immediately ordered the surveillance video to be reviewed, but it turned out that Lucien’s room video had malfunctioned.Although the situation seemed strange, Lucien was dead and there were no clues, so Ward reluctantly agreed to have Lucien’s body temporarily sent to the morgue.After thinking for a moment, Ward still had no leads. He was about to call Alexander to inform him when one of his subordinate officers rushed over in a panic."Captain, it's bad. Lucien’s body is gone. When I

The day of the wine cellar party arrived. Shelby Moore had already contacted Eleanor earlier and went to Eleanor’s office to wait for her to finish work.When Shelby entered the office, she saw Alexander sitting inside. Shelby frowned, but her expression quickly relaxed."Eleanor, why have you been so busy all day? Do you think you’re really a superhero? And your husband, he clearly has nothing to do.” Shelby said, grinning mischievously.Eleanor laughed: “You don’t know Alexander, he’s actually very busy too.""Hmph."Shelby showed disdain, sitting opposite Eleanor and saying: “What does he have to do? Doesn’t everyone in Golden Harbor know he’s just a ‘skirt-chaser’?""Alright, Shelby, wait a moment. Once I finish this, we can go."Shelby looked at Eleanor’s outfit and then at Alexander’s, surprised: “You two are wearing this to the party? Tonight is the wine cellar’s evening event, and it’s not just the rich people from Golden Harbor. I heard there will also be business groups from

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
