Hearing this, Jordan’s eyes widened. Quinton had once pursued her.
Back then, she was young and didn’t understand men, so she hadn’t accepted him.
Now, she regretted it deeply, thinking of ways to get closer to Quinton.
Unconsciously, she glanced at Alexander. The gap between them was too

After a while, the private room started to get noisy. Quinton, feeling excited, tossed the keys to his GTR on the table and said: “I've had this car for over six months now and don't want to drive it anymore. If any of you want it, just pay half the price and take it. I'm planning to switch to a Ferrari by the end of the year.""Oh wow! Mr. Payne, are you really that rich? A Ferrari?!""Truly, when you have money, you can do whatever you want!"Quinton shook his head, laughing: “Money, you can spend it and you can make it back. Besides, driving a Ferrari around is pretty cool.""Mr. Payne, you're amazing!""When you get it, take us for a spin."Quinton chuckled: “Great idea, great idea."Jordan's gaze at Quinton grew more passionate, it seemed she had chosen well.Ferrari!Over 500 thousand for one!Just then, someone suddenly exclaimed."Oh my God! Guys, look, there's breaking news. Mr. Payne, someone just bought out the Ava Beautiful SPA for 120 billion!" The person was shocked as t

Jordan, crying in fear, became even more distraught as more people criticized her. She lashed out: “I’ll pay, okay? Just stop pointing fingers at me!"She was terrified, her anxiety deepening.But the criticisms around her didn’t stop.Even if she had made a mistake, did she really deserve so much scorn?Wasn’t saying she would pay enough?Did they want her to kneel and beg for forgiveness too?"Alright, young lady, take a good look. These four bottles are Lafite, each one worth more than thirty thousand. Altogether, it’s one hundred thousand. So, miss, how would you like to pay—by card or cash?""What? One hundred thousand? No way! You’re trying to scam me!"Jordan was stunned, her tears flowing like rain.One hundred thousand—where was she going to get that kind of money?"Take a good look. This is the Iron Lions restaurant. Do you think we’d scam you? You might not care about your reputation, but we do. We have a business to run."The waitress's sharp tongue and cold attitude made

Yara’s face darkened, adjusting his suit, and picked up a piece of broken glass from the floor, saying: “Look carefully. It clearly states the year on this. If you don’t believe it, you can check online how much Lafite from 1787 is worth. I just want to tell you that these are the last four bottles in the city, genuine articles. Our restaurant has been in business for many years and has never overcharged. If you think I’m lying, feel free to call the market supervisor to check.”Yara’s expression was one of disdain, clearly seeing them as naïve.They didn’t even know about Lafite from 1787 and were talking about wine?Quinton was extremely shocked, picking up the pieces of glass himself, which indeed had the year 1787 on them.However, he would not admit it.4 million!The monthly revenue of Quinton’s company is only around seventy or eighty thousand, compensating a hundred thousand would be a stretch. But 4 million…!Where would he get that kind of money?Quinton was terrified, sayin

On the other side, Alexander was taken to the hospital by Joshua.He went to Mary's hospital room, where he saw her playing with a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs stuffed doll. She had her hair tied into two cute pigtails.With her big eyes, porcelain-like smooth skin, and a round face like a newborn, the little girl called out in a sweet, childish voice: “Daddy, come play with me."Alexander quickly walked over, sat down on the floor, and, pretending to be the evil witch with a wicked face, said: “I have an apple here. Do you want to give it to Snow White?"Mary glanced at Alexander and, with the tone of a little old lady, said: “Daddy, you're so childish, I don't want to play with you anymore."After saying that, Mary turned away, ignoring Alexander.Alexander, feeling dejected, spent a long time coaxing her before she finally relented.Not long after, Eleanor also arrived, and the three of them spent a joyful and harmonious time together.However, Alexander noticed that Eleanor see

At that moment, Peyton arrived with Eleanor.Peyton was taken aback by the scene and asked: “Alexander, what’s going on here? What happened?"Eleanor looked devastated. Hearing the commotion and seeing the scene in the room, along with the crowd’s murmuring, her eyes immediately welled up with tears."Alexander, what did you do?" Eleanor rushed over, grabbing Alexander’s arm.Alexander quickly reassured her: “Honey, believe me, I’ve been framed. I don’t even know this woman, they’re all in on this together."Blake laughed mockingly: “Damn! So you’ve got a wife, and you still try to mess with my girlfriend!""Hey, pretty lady, your husband’s a freak, trying to drag my girlfriend into his room to assault her!"Eleanor’s heart raced, and she quickly turned to apologize: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. My husband wouldn’t do something like that. There must be some misunderstanding."Eleanor couldn’t believe Alexander would do such a thing.Blake yanked the woman beside him forward and shoved her,

At the same time, in the VIP imperial room of the private club BrightPath Solutions.Thorne followed a secretary with a seductive figure and alluring attire.Thorne bent over, his face respectful as he looked at Sherman, who was sitting at the desk in front of him."Mr. Lopez, Mr. Pittman is here.” the secretary said in a clear voice.Sherman looked up at Thorne, smiling as he asked: “Thorne, why are you here so late? Is there something wrong?"Thorne appeared flustered, lowered his head, and quickly said: “Mr. Lopez, something's happened. Young Master Reynolds has been arrested.""What?"Sherman was stunned, his expression immediately darkened as he asked in a deep voice: “The young master was arrested? By whom?"At the same time, the door to the room was pushed open, and another secretary rushed in and said: “Mr. Lopez, the young master was framed for assaulting a woman and has been taken away."In an instant, the room was filled with an icy chill and a terrifying anger!The atmosph

Andrei knew Thorne and his immense influence."I won’t beat around the bush. Tonight, your subordinates arrested a friend of mine. I hope you can release him soon. There’s been a misunderstanding." Thorne’s tone was one of negotiation.Andrei, of course, understood, and with a heavy tone, said: “Mr. Pittman, my m

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
