Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 13 - The golden card
“After they ate brunch, Alex was about to leave when Miller asked, “Where are you heading to? You only just got here and we haven't had a drink yet.”“Ah, I am going to the XY bank, I have something to sort out over there.”Alex had to go to the medicine market to buy some ingredients to prepare the antidote he was going to make for Lord Thor Walton’s treatment. So he wants to go and cash out some money from the golden card that Liya had given him.“That is good, Molly has some matters to tend to for the company at the XY bank, the both of you can go there together.” Uncle Miller suggested.That caused him to be more and more frustrated, the more he was trying to stay away from her, the closer he was getting to her.Molly on the other hand was mad about her father’s decision but she knew better than to go against her father's wishes.She had a mischievous grin on her face while she drove both of them to the bank, “Alex, do you know what kind of people use the XY bank?”“The top one pe
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 14 - Molly changed her mind twice
The doorman's little scream got the ears of the others and they heard that someone had come with the golden card, they were shocked to hear that someone that was in the bank had that in their possession. Even Molly was stunned on hearing that.The golden card was only meant for someone in the XY bank, it means no two people can possess such a card. The one with the most money in the bank is the only one who gets the golden card. It was rumored that no one except the bank manager knows the true amount that is laying in that account.Some rumor also had it that the money cannot be spent finish, even if they spent more than ten million dollars everyday.The total amount in the account was two times the total amount of what everyone else that had an account in the XY bank.It was suspring that Alex is in possession of such a card, it was more than surprising to see someone have it. The doorman knew that if the owner of the card came, he wasn’t supposed to attend to them, only the bank man
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 15 - The war god's request
Uthman, the bank manager noticed the commotion from the glass office, he was crusy to know what was going on so after he attended to the last customer in the office, he stepped out and joined them downstairs.'What is going on here?’ he asked as he approached them.The doorman who had brought out his cellphone and was about to call the cops, kept the phone in his pocket and politely answered the bank manager, “Mr Uthman. This man came here with an expired golden card and he is trying to act like he has an active card here even after the face recognition machine gave him off. I was just about to call the cops when you came.”He added the last sentence with a sense of pride in him.Uthman’s face turned stone cold, “You must be out of your mind, you idiot. gHow did our procedures skip your mind? Anyone who walks in with the special designated cards must be brought up for verification. How dare you attempt to confirm the authenticity of the most important customer in this bank!”The doorm
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 16 - Patient dog.
The confusion on his face quickly cleared but he wasn’t expecting that the War god, Lord Thea, would have found out about the Divine doctor, it was already surprising that someone of her caliber was asking him for help.He wondered how she had found out that Alex had healed his daughter because his circle was pretty tight and his wife did not have a close relationship with the war god or anyone that could be her friend.“It seems like you're still confused as to why I asked you to come here even when I have told you what I want from you.” Thea said as she flicked her lighter open and lit her cigar stick.“Lord Thea, I am only astonished that the news of a young man healing my daughter has reached for your ears. This young man is actually the divine healer so I have not told anyone about him yet.”(A/N: Lord Thea because she is a war god which is usually a masualine position and she chose not to adopt the title, Lady Thea.)Donald then remembered that Dr Norton was also present with t
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 17 - Most Expensive Meal
Somehow Alex found himself in Molly’s car again, his uncle Miller had called him and Molly to check if they were still going to join his friends like they had previously planned.When he was done at the bank, she drove to his side and parked the car then she told him to hop in after she was sure that he was getting arrested.“I know the manager must have considered not arresting you because he saw that you were related to my family. You better thank your stars.” She said haughty.After he got off the call with Donlad Bourne, the manager went back outside to explain a few more things about his account to him when Molly had arrived to pick him up.“We are going to meet my friends now, they are the kids of the top most elites in Mericania so I will advise you now to watch the way you speak and act around them. If you start pretending as if you are some great person or like you have some big money like you did at the back then you should not blame me for anything that happens after.”She
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 18 - High society classes
As soon as he heard her comment he understood why Molly had left him by the door, she had set Rebecca to embarrass him in front of their other friends.“Do you have the right guy or you need to get your eyes checked,” A young woman who was holding a glass of wine said. “Does this guy look like he would be allowed into Donald Bourne's hotel?”“You are the infamous Alex Cole of the Trim City’s Cole family, did you come back home to leech off others after realizing that you cannot make it out there? Coming back here to live off others is a shameful thing to do as a man,” “Take my brother, Killian Gomez, as an example. He had several night bars opened in his own name without relying on our parents, he even takes his time to give huge allowance from his bank account. I am sure your sister doesn’t get top enjoy this sort of thing.:”Just as she completed her statement, Molly walked toward them with a man wrapping his hands provocatively. It was funny for Alex to have seen that, given tha
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 19 - Diamond ring
“Ah, Killian, you just got a new diamond ring, how much did you buy this?” Rebecca yelled out loud so that Alex could hear her.She had promised her friend, Molly, to take care of him for her and she was going to do it right.“Hmm, this?” he asked, staring at the ring on his hand, “I splurged a few thousands of dollars on it, it is nothing serious to yell about.”Alex did not react to the ring, in fact he didn't even spare them a glance, this made Killian sp angry. He was so pissed that his efforts to get Alex to fawn over him was like pouring water into a basket.But that ain't going to stop him, Molly had told him all about Alex and he was going to bring him to his feet.“Hey Alex.” he reached out to Alex who was silently observing the whole party,|Why don’t we play a little game of helping the needy? You will kneel before me and wipe my shoes with your hair and I will give you this little diamond ring. Do not undermine the size because it costs a lot of money.”Molly smirked as she
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 20 - Topmost floor
Alex’s phone started ringing and Donald Bourne’s ame flashed through it. Everyone suddenly seemed to have their tongues tied together for they were about to lash out on him after hearing what Molly had said about him.A phone call from the wealthy Donald Bourne was a big thing, he was the owner of the biggest place in Trim city and other places in Mericania. Everyone looked up to him and just like every other top elite, it was hard to meet people like him.Even to meet his younger brother, Raymond Bourne was a difficult thing to do even for Killian who was the most influential amongst them.Who is this guy that has access to David Bourne? This is so unbelievable.Alex stepped out to answer the call, “Are you here already?”“I will be there in a few minutes, Alex, please get to the top most floor and wait for me there, if you have the access card that i gave you the other day, please show it them so they can let you in without restriction and if your access card is not with you please

Chapter 158 - When you are ready
Alex watched Thea’s chest rise and fall as she struggled to hold her stance. Her arms were tight against her sides, her breathing shallow, impatient. She wasn’t used to standing still. Her body screamed for motion, for action, but Alex gave no command to strike.He circled her slowly, hands folded behind his back, observing every muscle twitch with a detached calm that made Thea grind her teeth."Focus on the breath," Alex said."I'm focused enough," Thea snapped."Then you wouldn’t be shifting your weight like a drunk soldier," he said without raising his voice.Her nostrils flared. She straightened, forcing her heels to root into the ground as he had instructed earlier, but her mind raced ahead to the sparring she expected. She wasn't here to meditate. She was a fighter, not a monk."Again," Alex said.Thea closed her eyes and tried to inhale as slowly as he had demonstrated: steady, filling her lungs from the diaphragm, not the chest. It felt unnatural. It felt wrong. She could be
Chapter 157 - Breathing exercise
The floor of the dojo creaked softly beneath their feet as Thea followed Alex into the training space. The dim amber light of morning filtered through the paper-paneled windows, casting long rectangles of golden warmth across the tatami mats. Incense from an earlier offering still lingered faintly, curling in wisps near the rafters.Alex walked calmly to the center of the room and turned to face her. His expression was unreadable, calm but not cold. There was a certain serenity about him in this space, as if the dojo answered to him more than the other way around.Thea, however, stood with arms crossed, one booted foot tapping with restless irritation."We start with breathing," Alex said, voice low but firm. "Three rounds. Inhale, hold, exhale. Center your energy."Thea rolled her eyes. "I didn’t come here to chant and do yoga, Alex. Let’s get to the part where I wipe the floor with you."He ignored the jab. "Your core isn’t balanced. Your last two battles showed that. You lead with
Chapter 156 - Come in when you are ready.
The mist clung low to the earth like a forgotten veil, drifting in wisps between the slender trunks of the ancient trees that stood as silent sentinels around General Earlton’s secluded estate. Dawn had only begun to breathe over the horizon, and the sky wore a faded palette of violet and gray, cut through with the slow awakening of golden light.The gravel crunched under Thea Walton’s boots as she walked up the winding path to the main house, shoulders stiff beneath her military jacket. She had always been punctual, but today, she had made sure to be early out of both habit and curiosity. General Earlton had summoned her with strict orders to report before sunrise. No details. No explanation. Just come.As the main house came into view, Thea slowed her pace. The silhouette of a man stood at the edge of the porch, hands in his pockets, posture relaxed like he’d been waiting for a while.Alex Cole.He was wearing a simple black long-sleeved shirt rolled at the forearms, paired with l
Chapter 155 - Earlton's request
The sun had slipped below the treetops, casting long, bronze shadows across the quiet estate of . The air smelled faintly of herbs and polished wood, earthy and grounding. A modest dinner table had been set outside under the arbor, where fireflies blinked lazily and cicadas hummed through the dense hush of forest twilight.Alex sat opposite General Earlton and her granddaughter, Sisi. The meal was simple: steamed greens, rice, and a fragrant stew that hinted of ginseng and lotus. Sisi chatted comfortably, teasing both her grandmother and Alex in equal measure. Alex offered quiet responses, trying not to seem too detached.After the final bites were taken, Sisi collected the plates. “I’ll wash up,” she said with a smile. “You two obviously have serious grown-up things to talk about.”Earlton gave a small nod of thanks, then turned to Alex as her granddaughter disappeared inside.“You didn’t come to Trim City for politics or fame,” she said without preamble. Her voice was calm, but its
Chapter 154 - Two weeks
The dojo smelled of incense and aged wood. The light inside was dim, shaded by hanging scrolls and translucent paper windows that bathed everything in a warm, amber glow. Hannah stood awkwardly at the center of the floor, her boots planted firmly on the polished surface, but her confidence wavering slightly under the penetrating gaze of the woman in front of her.General Earlton was not what she expected. The stories had painted her as an ancient recluse, a sorceress buried beneath layers of wisdom and mystery. But the woman seated cross-legged on the meditation mat was sharp-eyed and formidable. Her silver hair was pulled tightly into a braid that hung over her shoulder, and she wore a sleeveless black gi, revealing powerful, weathered arms inscribed with ancient martial runes. A golden snake-shaped cuff rested on her left bicep a relic from her final campaign during the War of the Red Valley.Hannah swallowed hard. She had stood before war generals, court officials, and high-ranki
Chapter 153 - General Earlton
The Walton family SUV pulled into a secluded private estate hidden deep within the outskirts of Trim City. Unlike the extravagant displays of wealth that dominated the city, gold-plated gates, surveillance drones, fountains carved from pure crystal, this compound was modest, covered by the whisper of forest trees and protected by a mist that never lifted entirely. The air was heavy with a calm, almost otherworldly pressure, like the land itself was ancient and sentient.Thea stepped out of the car with a stern expression. She wore her full black War God uniform an armored coat lined with silver embroidery and a long red scarf that fluttered with the wind. Her short hair was tied up neatly, and her commanding aura had not diminished despite the casualness of the visit.Behind her, Hannah, her ever-loyal assistant, followed while inspecting the area with sharp, curious eyes. Dressed in a more modern military style, Hannah was the perfect contrast to Thea blunt, emotional, and unapolog
Chapter 152 - Roommates
Alex leaned against the polished marble counter of the upscale lounge, watching the bartender pour a neat whiskey into his glass. The air was thick with low chatter, soft jazz humming through the speakers, and the flicker of candlelight bouncing off wine glasses. It was the kind of place he usually reserved for business meetings or quiet nights of reflection, but tonight had a different energy. Tonight was about celebrating.He looked up just in time to spot Sean walking in, a confident smile stretched across his face. The two locked eyes, and Alex grinned, raising his glass slightly in greeting.“You look like a man with good news,” Alex said as Sean approached.Sean chuckled and took the seat beside him. “Better than good, man. I got the job.”“No way!” Alex set his drink down and clapped Sean on the back, genuinely thrilled. “You got it?”“Assistant manager,” Sean said, pride and disbelief mingling in his voice. “Can you imagine? Me?”“Hell yes, I can imagine,” Alex replied, signal
Chapter 151 - Conditions
Miller wasn’t truly concerned whether Alex succeeded in getting him the board position or not. In fact, deep down, he hoped Alex failed. That way, it would provide him the perfect excuse to sever all ties with him completely. He didn’t want to be tethered directly or indirectly to Carl Moretti. The mafia’s shadow was already long and dark over Trim City, and Miller had narrowly survived too many storms to let himself get dragged into another one. His reputation was hanging by a thread, and he knew better than to let it fray.So when Alex had pleaded for a second chance, Miller hadn’t outright said no but his agreement had come with a heavy undertone of reluctance. It was strategic, not sentimental. If Alex pulled through, fine. If he didn’t, it would be the final nail, and Miller would be done with him.With that tension still hovering in the air, Alex returned to Tina’s office that afternoon. Not for business this time, but for their date the second of ten they had both agreed t
Chapter 150 - Envision 🙂
As soon as Miller walked out of Tina Snow’s office, Alex rushed after him.“Uncle Miller!” he called out to him.Miller stopped in his tracks and turned to face him. He was still visibly pissed.“I’m sorry about what happened the other day. Uncle, I know no excuse would be enough. After all, it was my fault for not checking in before going to your house,” Alex apologized sincerely.Miller sniffed. He already knew the truth that his wife had framed Alex but he wasn’t about to tell him that. He didn’t want to lose face in front of the boy.He squared his shoulders. The resentment inside him simmered down a little as he remembered all that he had lost his ties with Raymond Bourne, and the respect he once commanded.He was highly happy that Bourne had met up with him, besides he had also pictured the opportunities that would flock around him because of his relationship with Ray.But instead, it caused him more harm than anyone could envision but somehow he was able to vindicate himself.
