Looking at how bright Rex's eyes got, the doctor thought Rex was having a delusion of hope that Sage Mo Fan would come to help him, but he didn't want to break his fantasy for him so, with a few words of comfort from the doctor he left, leaving Rex to think of ways to save his wife, a chance he thinks will have only 0.01% chance of succession."Doc, can I borrow your phone for a second?" Rex quickly asked, right now he wasn't on any penny and he was even standing there with bloodstains on his body.Without wasting time, the doctor pulled out a phone which looked like Tecno Y2 and gave it to Rex, "Have this, I'm not using it anymore as it's an old phone.""Thank you so much." Says Rex as he watches the doctor leave, what would the doctor do if he had known that this bloodstained and dirty dude standing before him is the son of the richest man in the country and even one of the contestants for the heir of the family?He definitely would have looked submissive and had an expression of fa
Outside the hospital, across the road, an ordinary restaurant was deliberately designed, considering the comfort of patients and visitors alike. Warmth and ease were its hallmarks, abundant natural light, comforting seats, and a soothing décor embraced anyone stepping through its doors. Its wide windows not only offered a scenic view but also a tangible link to the outdoors. Here, diverse, freshly prepared dishes are awaited to satisfy various tastes and dietary needs. In this restaurant, people from various backgrounds gather to enjoy delicious meals. While it may not be the most luxurious establishment, it certainly attracts its fair share of wealthy patrons.As Rex and Cerulean enter the restaurant, they notice that everyone seems to be looking at them with weird expressions. This sudden attention makes the usually curious Cerulean shrink back slightly, clutching the side of Rex's trousers for support. Despite the unexpected attention, Rex wasn't bothered as he knew it was becaus
"Excuse me,"Rex and Cerulean attention was abruptly caught by a man who called them. Turning around, Rex saw a chubby man with beady sly eyes dressed in a luxurious suit right before them."Yes?" He inquired."Would you mind changing a seat and finding somewhere else? I and my lady want to sit here." Wei Chang says in a normal tone as he looks at Rex waiting for his response, to him he is already polite enough to a man not in his league.Meanwhile, Mingxia heard Wei Chang calling her his lady eyes turned sharper as she looked at him but didn't say a word, rather she was also waiting for the bruises-covered man to stand up for them.Hearing the man's words, Rex looked at him once more with a calm smile while thinking, _Is this guy trying to use me and show off?_"Sorry, as you can see, the little kid with me loves sightseeing while eating and this is the best place to sit. Find another seat." Rex replied curtly as he looked away showing his lack of interest in continuing the conversat
_Did I hear him clearly?_ Boss Jackson thought as he subconsciously released Rex's arm with a look of doubt. Even if he had pulled with all his strength he wouldn't have been able to make Rex move a bit since Rex's cell has already evolved beyond normal humans, giving him an unnatural strength. Not only Boss Jackson but Wei Chang and Mingxia, and even some of the people closer too were in doubt of the words those people spoke. They even thought their ears were playing tricks on them.Unfazed by the sudden quietness rippling through the crowd, the three immaculately attired guards swiftly approached Rex who wasn't even looking at them, rather his attention was on Cerulean who was looking at everything curiously. As soon as the guards reach him, in perfect harmony, they slammed their right hands onto their chests in a grand saluting gesture, bowing their heads in unison as they chorused, "Welcome back, Young Master Rex!""..."Death silence!Everyone was shocked.At this moment, if a
With dark lines on his face, Rex looked at the man on the floor without any words for some seconds. "Get up and sit," Rex ordered, to him it was unnecessary to show his dominance by making this man go on his knees.Wei Chang trembled as he quickly stood up and sat on the chair with his back straight, showing how nervous he was now. "What's your name?""Wei Chang! M-my name is Wei Chang, Master Rex.""Good, I would like to give you a mission. But firstly, you will follow me to somewhere else."Hearing those words, Wei Chang, despite being confused could only nod as he dared not disobey those orders. He was hoping to please Rex and make Rex drop the issue because if his father got news of this then his world might come crashing down."Okay, sir." Wei Chang replied.As they conversed, or rather, as Rex questioned and Wei Chang responded, Boss Jackson promptly arrived with the food ordered by Rex and served Cerulean, who eagerly devoured it, to the little boy, nothing was much more impo
"Indeed, the peacock brooch necklace will go under the hammer at the primary auction in five days. Exciting, isn't it? Hehehe, I’m looking forward to the astonishment on my competitors' faces when they learn about this prized possession I’m auctioning." A woman with fiery red hair, donning an elegant, figure-hugging crimson gown with a subtly revealing neckline, spoke leisurely into her phone while seated in an office armchair.If Rex was here he would recognise her as Silvia Medici, his ex-wife.Right now she was in her happiest moment as her fiance Grey Lucas got her a gift which if she successfully sold would definitely fetch her a large amount of money that would be enough to boost her business to a certain stage.The Peacock Brooch, a necklace which is estimated to cost about $2.4 billion. This brooch was commissioned by Louis XIV of France in the 17th century and features a large blue diamond in the center, surrounded by hundreds of smaller diamonds, emeralds, and rubies. The de
"Janet, get the securities," Silvia instructed as she strode towards Rex and Cerulean.Right now she was seriously pissed off. The good customers who were shopping here had all been chased by this man and her secretary even offered him money to leave which he rejected.Plus that look was the same look of defiance and pride that Rex got after going back to the Lathwyn family."Since Rex isn't around. I will use you to satisfy my anger." She mutters quietly.Meanwhile, Rex heard her."...MMM?" Turning around he saw her, Silvia, the very woman he fell in love with and didn't hesitate to abandon his family just to be with her, that same woman who left him for another man in a blink of an eye and didn't even hesitate to call him names.The very woman who broke his heart into thousands of pieces was right before him."Who are you and why did you choose to cause a ruckus in my boutique?" Silvia coldly asked as she looked straight into Rex's eyeball without fear.Hearing her question, Rex was
Ring!Ring!Hearing her phone ringing and seeing the caller ID. Silvia hurriedly picked it up, expecting some good news."Hello, have you completed the mission that fast? It hasn't even been more than 1 minutes since they left." Silvia let out a look of praise in her eyes, she felt like this man was very swift in his duty to be able to accomplish such a mission in a short period.“Forget about the mission. Firstly, were you trying to set me up?” The man's voice was cold.Anyone in his position will be pissed off by the event that just took place.Imagine being told that his target was just two weak poor people without any background only to discover that the man holding the little boy is the grandson of the richest man in the whole country and even the second richest in the world.Even if he was given millions of dollars he still wouldn't dare have the guts to hurt the man."W-what are you talking about?" Silvia was genuinely confused by the man's words. What did he mean she was tryin
