2024-07-21 04:42:45Alexander was silent, then said: "I won't care about this, you go and do it, my request will not change, if because of this, that woman secretly criticizes me, then I will not inherit Dragon Sect, I will not do anything for Dragon Sect."
Saying this, Alexander waved his hand and left the BrightPath Solutions private club.
Sherman respectfully bowed, watching Alexander leave.
Young Master, seems to have changed, becoming a bit more assertive.
Afterward, he gently tapped the black and gold cane in his hand on the floor, and a tall, slender woman with a graceful figure swayed in.
This woman was wearing a bright red slit dress, her hair tied to one side, exuding immense allure. Just one smile from her could captivate any man.
"Sherman~." the woman said, her voice sweet and seductive.
Sherman replied: "Follow the Young Master's orders."
"Yes." The woman turned and left the private room.
The next day, a sensational headline spread across Golden Harbor.
Today, the entire Golden Harbor was abuzz with this news.
Last night, a mysterious tycoon extravagantly booked the entire Skyline hotel for the 23rd!
Skyline hotel, the most luxurious 6-star hotel in Golden Harbor!
The expenditure for that alone costs millions per night!
Now, the mysterious tycoon has booked Skyline for an entire day, with initial expenses estimated to be at least 150 million!
This was just the cost for booking the venue!
Later, it was revealed that the mysterious tycoon booked the entire Skyline to celebrate his daughter's third birthday.
As this news spread, Golden Harbor was once again in an uproar!
Too much money!
What kind of person spends so much money to celebrate a daughter's birthday?
Instantly, all of Golden Harbor was abuzz with gossip.
Naturally, the Marshall family's company was also discussing this matter.
Early in the morning, the company's employees began to excitedly chatter.
"Hey, hey, have you heard? A mysterious tycoon booked the entire Skyline for 150 million!"
"I've heard about it already. They said it's for his daughter's birthday. That's way too much money. She must be a little princess!"
"On the 23rd, a lot of people are looking forward to that day. I heard the party will have 300 tables. Just calculating that, it'll cost at least a few billions!"
The employees gathered in small groups, chatting non-stop.
"Haha, if I remember correctly, the 23rd is also the birthday of Chairman Marshall's daughter, isn't it?"
Someone suddenly brought up.
Instantly, all the employees went quiet.
"No way, could the person who booked Skyline be Chairman Marshall?"
"Impossible, we all know Chairman Marshall's status in the Marshall family. Saying it's Old Master could be believable."
"Stop gossiping. I heard that the person who booked Skyline isn't from the Marshall family."
While everyone was excitedly discussing, Eleanor walked into the company, passing through the lobby.
She wore a white blouse, a black business skirt, her long legs wrapped in black stockings, lightly made-up, and her hair in a ponytail, looking very professional.
But as she entered the company, she felt the unusual gazes from everyone.
Eleanor had heard the morning news too. Passing through everyone's staring eyes, she hurried into her office.
Once inside, she closed the door behind her like fleeing into the wilderness, leaning against the door, clearly feeling helpless.
Who on earth booked Skyline for the 23rd, making her the target of everyone?
Eleanor was furious, feeling this person was deliberately causing trouble for her.
Coincidentally, it was also on the 23rd.
After working for a while, Tommy entered with a mocking, provocative attitude, walked straight to the sofa, and looking at Eleanor working diligently, he sarcastically said: "Eleanor, I heard someone booked the entire Skyline on the 23rd to celebrate his daughter's birthday."
Eleanor ignored Tommy and continued typing.
Tommy laughed twice, saying: "Haha, sharing the same birthday on the 23rd, his daughter gets to celebrate at Skyline, while someone's daughter can only celebrate in the hospital. Ridiculous."
Suddenly.
Eleanor's typing stopped, and she looked coldly at Tommy, saying: "If you have nothing else to say, please leave."
Tommy shrugged, showing an attitude of 'what can you do about it', saying: "Oh, angry now, but who is to blame? Both fathers of both children, one gets the whole city congratulating for his daughter's birthday, while Alexander doesn't even have the right to celebrate with Mary."
"Get out!"
Eleanor's voice turned icy, pointing to the door, shouting.
Tommy stood up, laughed twice, and said: "Eleanor, the day after tomorrow is the Marshall family's semi-annual summary meeting. This time, I'll make sure to kick you out of the company!"
With that, Tommy put his hands in his pockets, snorted, and left.
After Tommy left, Eleanor's reddened eyes shed a few tears. She wiped them away, took a deep breath, and continued working on her project.
But the more she worked, the more uncomfortable she felt!
For four years, she could endure the mockery from others directed at herself.
But she couldn't bear the mockery directed at her daughter.
Finally, she banged the keyboard a few times, laid her head on the desk, sobbed for a while, then lifted her beautiful face, took out her phone, and texted Alexander: "Alexander, where are you? I want to see you! Immediately!"
It's all his fault, making Mary a laughingstock. The girl is only 3 years old.
At this moment, Alexander was at work, having just sent off some wealthy women to the gym. Receiving Eleanor's message, he was a bit stunned.
Who made his wife so angry?
"I'm at work. What's wrong? I'll come to you right away." Alexander replied, then informed Manager Wang, and rode his electric scooter straight to Eleanor's company.
At the company entrance, as soon as Alexander stopped his electric scooter, he was confronted by a cold face coming towards him.
Smack!
Eleanor, with reddened eyes, walked up and slapped Alexander, her voice choking: "It's all your fault. Why are you Mary's father? Why are you my husband?"
Facing Eleanor's frenzy, Alexander was stunned.
"Eleanor, what on earth happened?" Alexander asked.
Eleanor wiped the tears from her face, coldly looked at Alexander, and asked: "Do you still not know? Do you know what day the 23rd is?"
"I know, it's Mary's birthday." Alexander replied.
"Then do you know what happened in Golden Harbor today? Everyone is laughing at me, laughing at Mary. Sharing the same birthday on the 23rd, someone booked the entire Skyline, while you, Alexander, don't even have the right to celebrate with Mary!"
Eleanor couldn't hold it in anymore. She squatted down on the ground, covering her face, and cried: "Why? Mary is only 3 years old, and she has to endure everyone's mockery and cold looks."
Alexander stood there looking at Eleanor, understanding the situation.
Then he clenched his fists and said: "Eleanor, do you know who booked the entire Skyline?"
Eleanor raised an eyebrow, stood up, and coldly looked at Alexander, saying: "Who? Was it you?"
Seeing Eleanor's pained expression, Alexander felt deeply uncomfortable and said: "That's right, the person who booked the entire Skyline is..."
Suddenly!
A cheerful male voice interrupted Alexander.
"Eleanor, there you are. I've been looking for you for a long time."
In front, a man in a white suit walked over, looking very handsome, holding a large bouquet of red roses in his hand.
Peyton Roberts, the young master of the Roberts family, also a billionaire second-generation with tens of billions, ran his own small company, and was considered a young talent in Golden Harbor.
Peyton Roberts was a crazy pursuer of Eleanor, even though Eleanor was married, he kept giving gifts and inviting Eleanor to dinner.
But Eleanor always refused.
"Eleanor, this is for you, I just bought it."
Peyton handed a large bouquet of roses to Eleanor, then wiped away tears, smiling: "Thank you, but I can't accept it."
As she spoke, Eleanor's eyes fell on Alexander. Four years, and when had he ever given her flowers?
Yes, just a bouquet of flowers, and he didn't even think to give her one.

At this moment, Peyton noticed Alexander beside her, his face suddenly turning dark, mocking: "Oh, I wondered who it was, Alexander Reynolds."This was the useless man known throughout Golden Harbor, how could he marry a beautiful woman like Eleanor, as lovely as a fairy?In Peyton's heart, he was filled with hatred for Alexander.Alexander frowned slightly, looking at Peyton, saying: "Giving flowers to my wife again?"Peyton straightened his tie, his lips curling slightly, answering dramatically: "What do you want to say?

You think you have the right to look at luxury items like these? Do you even belong here?"Alexander replied calmly: “The store is open for business. Why shouldn't I be able to look?"Ha!Peyton sneered and said: “Because you're dirt poor. This is Crystal Wave. Even the simplest necklace or diamond ring here costs tens of millions.

In the conference room of Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals, Marshall family company...At this moment, the Marshall family patriarch was seated at the head of the table, with the family butler standing beside him.“Grandpa, the company’s recent performance has dropped significantly. I’ve reviewed the situation, and it’s clear that Eleanor’s marketing department has serious issues. It’s been three months without any major orders. She can’t avoid responsibility for this.” Tommy said directly, a cold smile on his lips as he stared at Eleanor.“Haha, I think some people just aren’t capable of handling their positions. They might as well resign and go home to take care of their kids, instead of being a burden to Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals.”Laurie sitting below, shot a contemptuous glance at Eleanor before admiring her own nails.Tommy then stood up and walked over to Eleanor, touching her delicate shoulder as he said: “Eleanor, if I were you, I would have resigned long ago.

Soon, Alexander appeared in the large and luxurious office.Blaine Welsh raised an eyebrow as he looked at Alexander and politely asked: “May I know what brings you to see me?"The young man in front of him seemed ordinary; how could he have caused the headquarters to personally call him?"Chairman Welsh, there’s no need for formalities. I’m here to ask for a favour from your group.” Alexander said, getting straight to the point.Blaine set down the gold-plated fountain pen in his hand, surprised: “Oh? What kind of favor?""I’ve heard that Star Bridge is looking for a pharmaceutical company to partner with in Golden Harbor. I hope Star Bridge will choose Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals, and the person in charge will be Eleanor Marshall.” Alexander calmly stated, his expression indifferent.Blaine frowned, his expression turning somewhat displeased: “May I ask who you are and why you want to help the Marshall family?

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.

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.

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?

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.

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
