Alex's expression turned sour when he heard her narcissistic remark.

“I have been meaning to tell you this, you are really a crazy woman.”

He hung up because he didn’t even want to hear her speak. He didn't care if she was going to be annoyed because of what he had said to her. He rested his head on the chair cushion.

Donald and Alex arrive at the Happy Happy place auction venue, they set it up on the outskirts of Trim city, deep in a place that was not easily accessed unless someone knew the place.

They got out of the car. There were chaperones who were waiting for them by the car park, who immediately led them inside.

Donald followed him inside because it was going to be easier since he had already had a solid membership in the auction house while Alex was pretty much a newbie there.

The auction looked like an underground house, it was underneath because of protection. When they got it in it had another look entirely , it was well decorated, and it looked like an event cente

It was Thea, he had saved her cainacted after the last time they spoke,He didn’t want to pick the call up but thought about Thea's problems that she might want to contact him about her grandfather.The old man had not woken up yet so he had ignored her past attitude towards him to consider that.“My grandfather is awake.” She said softly, His eyes widened in shockThat was something he was not expecting to hear at all, he also found it hard to believe that lord Thor Walton had woken up.It was quite impossible that he had gotten out of the coma he was in when Alex had confirmed that he was bitten by the Two-headed snake. He had gotten the herb to treat him but he still needed to do some procedure with it before he could use it on him.Well, there is nothing new under the sun, there are chances that a miracle had happened and the old man had woken up because of that.

    “Do you think doing this to us will earn you some more accolades? Dream on, let’s see if that would happen.” One of the fugitives threatened. They knew who Thea was and of course, she took them down, she would be named the war god that took down the hard-to-catch fugitives. They were not going to let that happen.All six of them got up at once, they looked unusual as if they were possessed by something.“Watch out for these guys, they don’t seem like their normal.” Alex warned her. He didn’t know what was going to happen but he had a bad feeling in his guts that why he had warned Thea but her face changed into a cold one again.She looked at him as if he had just said nonsense to her How could he possibly know the gravity of having fugitives like them around when he is just an ordinary doctor and martial artist. Thea thought to herselfShe had to take the six men standing before her at once because once they escaped it would be difficult to catch them back because even if they left

    Her eyes rolled to the back as the choking got intense. Knowing her strength as a martial art Master, it was easy to know that she was in so much pain..Alex rushed over to her, the cigar that had dropped on the ground while she was choking burned the back of his leg through the slippers he was wearing.He had switched his shoes out when they came inside earlier. He ignored the pain and checked her pulse immediately and his expression hardened. Her heart rate was starting to drop.Then his mind to the move that the fugitives made earlier. Was that the cause? he asked himself.The cause was not important right now, saving her came first. Alex was not the type of doctor that is practicing because he wants to save the world or be a good person for the sake of humanity but this has happened in front of him, he couldn't let her die that way.On a normal day, he would have preferred to mind his own business. After a moment of doing different techniques on her, he breathed heavily. He was

    “Put your mind at rest, Hannah. I will not let anything go wrong with Thea.” he assured her, as he began to treat her.He was able to restore her heart rate back to normal since it was a minor thing to do.Some moments later, Thea woke up. She was surprised to see Hannah and Reed in her house.“Reed? How are you here?” what are you doing in my house?”Hannah immediately explained what had happened to her.“I wonder what would have happened to you if young master Reed wasn't here, My lord. I was so scared that something bad will happen to you. Who knows what would have happened if Young master Reed did not come here?”Thea’s expression fell as Hannah explained to her. Her memories of what happened before she passed out flooded her head. The fugitive's last move was strong enough to take her life.She even thought she was going to die while she was choking. She could smell death closely while that was happening and there was huge pain surging around her body..That fucking bum! Alex!Th

  • Phenomenal Alex Cole    Chapter 40 - Silk Market

    Donald was kind of confused, it was strange that he had gotten that call from Alex, what was stranger was proving that he was truly Donald Bourne over the phone to some people. If he was meeting them in person, that would have been easier to do.He cleared his throat at the other end of the phone and Alex put his phone on loudspeaker. “I am not sure you guys want me to prove that I am Donald Bourne. Do you have questions you want to ask?”He knew that he might have sounded stupid and off. But that was the only thing he could think of saying.Molly burst into laughter and her mother joined her. “You are really something, Alex. I don’t know if it is the desperacy to prove that you are an important person but it is not working. How are you so quick to find an actor to pretend like he was the great Donald Bourne?”“I am sorry to break it to you but this actor doesn’t deserve to get a dime from you because he didn't do his job well.” She burst into laughter again.“I have had enough of all

    Killain turned on his heel, he was about to leave but Molly clung onto him. What did I do wrong, babe? Do you hate me now? Your actions towards me have been harsh lately.”Because her voice was loud, she had caught the attention of passersby, Killain had no choice but to wait and play along with her antics to avoid any form of embarrassment. The only reason he had kept her around was to get a taste of her but he wasn’t even going to do that again. He just wanted to get away from her now that he knew who Alex was.“No, I have been busy lately, you know with my mom’s condition and all. Everything has been tight. Don’t be annoyed at me, okay?” He said.Molly knew about Mrs Gomez’s condition. She had heard it from Rose Gomez who had to stab many of their hangouts so that she could stay back at home to take care of their mother. She became calm when she heard his words.“When are you going to take me to see your mom? We should meet her together, don’t you think so?” She asked, not letting

    She sneered at him, “What? You are surprised to see me here?”Molly folded her arms, “If you know what is good for you, you better leave this place at once. Killian is here, if he meets you here, he is going to deal with you and I am sure your body can't even take a beating from him.”Ofcourse, she would say that because she had never seen him naked before, she didn’t know how he looked behind the clothes that covered his bidy.Alex didn’tt want to waste his time wit her. He had arrived a the silk market market a long time ago and the scarf was the ku the that caught hus eyes after he had walked around, he would not be leaving the scarf for her especially when she had mentioned that Killian was around, it means that she would be out of his hair in no time.He faced Peter, “I will take the scarf for ten thousand dollars.”Molly immediately burst into laughter, “You still have this silly attitude on, actin’ like you are some wealthy guy when you have nothing to your name, you need to dr

    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

    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.

  • Chapter 149 - Someone like Alex.

    Tina’s voice sliced through the tension in the room like a blade.“That was rude, Miller. You don’t speak to people like that, especially not someone like Alex.”Her brows were drawn together in disapproval, her arms crossed tightly over her chest as she glared at the man seated across from her. She looked every bit the confident, assertive woman people knew her to be fierce, sharp-tongued, and used to having things go her way. Miller, on the other hand, looked unimpressed. He merely lifted his eyes toward her and gave a scoff, like her words held no weight.“I didn’t ask for his opinion,” Miller replied flatly. “If someone barges into a meeting unannounced, they should be prepared for how they’re received.”Alex, standing just near the door, seemed caught between staying and saying more, or simply slipping out to avoid escalating the situation. He bowed his head slightly, voice soft and apologetic.“I’m sorry for interrupting,” Alex said, his tone calm and respectful despite the obv

  • Chapter 148 - Investment List

    Alex changed into a sharp, formal tuxedo as he prepared for his date with Tina. While tying his cufflinks, his thoughts drifted silently to Victor Miller. He was heading to Tina Snow’s company an hour before their scheduled date not by coincidence, but by design. He needed time to find Miller and speak with him before anything else.A part of him considered asking for forgiveness after all, the misunderstanding between them wasn’t truly his fault, but it had still caused damage. Yet, the idea of bringing it up felt strange, given that it stemmed from Rena’s false accusations. What would Miller even say? Would he believe him now?Still, Alex couldn’t shake the feeling that he owed the man something.Carl had recently informed him that Raymond Bourne was one of the influential figures who approved the list of companies eligible for investment from the Snow family’s enterprise. Since the Bourne family held significant shares in Snow’s company, Raymond’s word carried weight.Carl also rev

    Alex sat patiently at the bus stop, waiting for Sean to show up at the same place where he had dropped him off the last time they met. Honestly, he hadn’t expected Sean to reach out again after how things had ended between them.When Sean finally arrived, he looked a little better than the last time, though the stress was still evident on his face.“Hmmm… How have you been all these years?” Sean asked, taking a seat beside him. “I see you managed to secure some good deals for yourself.”Sean was aware of what had happened behind the scenes. He knew how Alex’s extended family had swooped in to take control of his father’s businesses and stripped Alex and his sister of their rightful inheritance. He added with a light chuckle, “You even managed to repurchase your father’s car, huh?”That wasn’t public knowledge, but Sean had always been close enough to the Cole family to know more than most.Alex smirked. “Good bands, huh? That’s funny coming from you, Sean. Isn’t your family still doi

    “He had openly declared that I wasn't worth being at the event, in front of every doctor present in there,” Alex added.Roman faced Reed, he had sent him to represent him at that event and he didn't know that he had done such a thing. Even if this was not done against the Divine doctor’s precious student, it was wrong to do that to anyone.“How dare you treat a doctor like that in public, you didn't even do that to just anyone but Doctor Cole. Even if it was a junior Doctor, it is wrong to do that any one.” Roman scolded him.Reed was too scared and he could not utter any words in his defense.“I am so sorry that he had done that to you Doctor Alex. I don’t think what I am about to say will help make this up to you but it is the least I could do to ease things up.” Roman Reign said apologetically, “You may decide what his punishment is because he needs to be taught a lesson to never disrespect any doctor in his life.”“Forbid him from using the skills he had learned from your medical

    It was the day Master Dustin had appointed Alex to meet his old acquaintance from the medical world. He had arrived promptly, at the address that his master had given him. He knew how much Dustin cared about being early to anywhere they had to go even when he was still learning from him and they were attending to the regular people in the medical village.When he arrived at the Old man’s acquaintance's residence, he was welcomed by the gateman, who let him drive in without questioning him.Alex parked his car by the main door and got out, he rang the doorbell, after a few seconds, some elderly man showed up by the door and pushed the door open.That was Master Roman Reigns, he had been patiently waiting for Alex to arrive since his old friend had told him that he was going to come to show up.With a wide grin on his face, he smiled at Alex, “Dr Cole, I am glad you were able to make it here without losing direction even with your busy schedule."It was quite hard to locate Roman Reig

    The alley behind the gallery was too quiet. That should’ve been Alex’s first clue. But he didn’t flinch.Dressed in black and moving like a shadow, he strolled through the narrow lane that reeked of garbage and cheap perfume. Neon signs flickered overhead. Somewhere in the distance, a party throbbed with music and laughter. But here? Silence. Stillness.A perfect place for a setup.He adjusted the cuff of his shirt and paused in the middle of the alley.That’s when the men stepped out, six of them, all bulk and muscle, dressed like plain thugs but too synchronized to be random street trouble. One cracked his knuckles. Another pulled a metal rod from beneath his coat.“These guys really needs to stop hiring amateurs,” Alex muttered under his breath.A slow clap echoed through the alley.Gisele came on first, heels clicking as she walked in like this was a stage built just for her. A red satin dress hugged her curves, and her smirk was sharper than any weapon. James followed, less styl
