Alex walked in with Luz, noticing Su Yang, who was pacing around the room, while the elders of his family sat down on the chairs available.They quickly stood up immediately he entered.Su Yang Immediately turned around, seeing Alex.“Lord Dracula,” he whispered fearfully, dropping to his knees before Alex.“Please forgive me, my son had eyes but couldn't see. I have failed woefully as a father. Please have mercy,” he pleaded, kowtowing before him.“Hope you got the pictures? When are you going to bring Su Mu's fingers to me?” Alex asked, sitting Luz at the head of the table, before taking a seat before him.Su Yang Immediately shivered at Alex's actions.His action of placing Luz at the head of the table only means one thing, their fate will depend on the little boy.Yes, their lives or death will be Luz's decision to take.“Placing the little boy at the head of the table before elders, isn't it a little improper?” A white haired old man asked with a frown, looking at Luz.“He's not
Everyone turned to Luz, waiting to hear his words.He simply stared back at them as if he was deaf and dumb, allowing them to wallow on pins and needles.He suddenly smiled, making their frowns get uglier as they looked at the annoying boy."I already told him yesterday. Why are you still asking me? His fingers, or one billion dollars for each of his fingers. If you can't redeem every one of them, redeem the ones you can and bring him here. I want to make sure it's his fingers being chopped off," Luz said lightly, making Su Yang scowl at him."One billion per finger? Do you think five billion dollars is child's play? What are we going to sell to raise that kind of money? Even if our company is valued at billions, removing such an amount of liquid cash will be impossible. Please, can we negotiate this?" Su Yang quickly said, making Luz roll his eyes."When did I say it's five billion? Does he only have five fingers? Or are you planning to redeem one and offer me the other?" Luz said ca
Alex smiled lovingly at him, caressing his hair.“Nothing. It's just that daddy is so proud of you. You're the true son of your father. But killing people isn't right though, I just allowed you to do that because they were looking down at you,” Alex whispered.“You forgot to ask them to collect their corpse. The cleaners will have a fit and think you're a vampire,” Luz said, averting his eyes from the area housing the dead body.“You and your big mouth, so much for praising you just now,” Alex said angrily, pinching his nose.“Hmm, take it away. You were with a woman last night,” Luz screamed, just as Tajana and the rest made their way into the room.Alex quickly withdrew his hand from Luz's face at lightning speed, blushing for the first time in years.He had no problem with exploring his sexuality, or even having public displays of affection with a woman who he loves. He was a mature adult after all with the capability to keep as many women as he wants.But getting caught by your un
"And you, tell Su Yang to go pick up his trash," Alex barked, looking at Shadow."Yes my lord," Shadow quickly answered, as everyone quickly gave him a wide berth, not wanting to act as the canvas used to showcase Alex's uncommon Kung-fu skills."Why is he so cranky this morning? I thought men are normally happy, fulfilled, and easy going after a night of good sex?" Emrys whispered."Who knows, could it be that he was not satisfied? Boss has superhuman powers and appetite which definitely extends to sex, especially as he had remained celibate for years. He is probably frustrated by the half satisfaction. The girl certainly couldn't keep up with his monstrous strength, leaving him cranky," Ikaris whispered back."Who said that?" Alex growled, halting his steps.Emrys and Ikaris immediately froze. They had totally forgotten that Alex's superhuman features included the ability to hear and dissect even the tiniest decibel of sound. He definitely heard their gossip loud and clear."Dad, i
Alex ignored them, adjusting Tajana's inner shorts to ensure his privates were properly protected from view, while he examined the rest of his body."This was a simple injury that would have easily been addressed by precise acupuncture and suction techniques. But look what happened now, this has become so complicated and tasking. Who gave you all the right to hide things from me? From today onwards, anyone that tries to hide his injury or Ill health from me will be severely punished. Make sure you notify the others when we arrive," Alex said in irritation, bringing out some herbs and elixirs, in addition to some vials of injections he had formulated.He began acupuncture on him, massaging specific points on his body. Soon enough, dark sweat began to seep out from his body, his face a sad mask of distress. Alex carefully wiped it away with a towel which he dipped in a nearby bowl of hot water and herbs emulsion, cleaning him up. Alex cleaned the cut on his face and sealed it, applying
Alex stared at Tajana, wondering why he hasn't woken up after thirty minutes of constant treatment.He placed his hands on Tajana's chest, circulating more precious energy into him.Tajana coughed up dark blood, filled with a black, shiny liquid, making Alex's frown deepen.“What's this?” Alex muttered, carefully wiping it up with a clean, white, handkerchief. He wrapped it with another towel, dropping it in a bowl beside him.Tajana soon stirred, opening his tired eyes to stare at Alex.“Boss, thank you. I can finally breathe,” he whispered tiredly, making Alex's eyes dart to the wrapped handkerchief once more.“Silly boy. Why did you keep such a thing from me? Wait until you recover, I will definitely teach you a bitter and well-deserved lesson,” Alex said with a menacing scowl on his face, causing Tajana to smile tiredly.“Are you sure about that, boss? What kind of punishment do you have in mind?” He joked, his eyes closing involuntarily.“Wait until you recover, you can find out
Alex's men silently parted as he walked into his mansion, respectfully following him.“Mia Callaghan's court sitting is scheduled for tomorrow morning,” Raz said with a smile, while Alex sat down on his comfortable revolving office chair.“And how are the preparations? Mia Callaghan has a few crafty people helping her, especially the people she got through the Baltimore family, all thanks to the William kid. I also need you to gather evidence of her tampering with evidence, lobbying officials, and sleeping around. That would make William shift away. Everything needs to be perfect because the actress sure as hell will do anything to wriggle out of this. Do you understand?” Alex asked coldly, looking at them.They immediately nodded, taking notes on their various devices.“Have you procured the videos I instructed you to?” Alex asked, looking at Raz.“Of course, my Lord. Everything will definitely proceed as planned, they will not be able to wriggle out of it this time. There are also a
Alex sat before the flat screen television set in his study, watching the proceedings of Mia's court sitting, which he made sure was broadcast all over the world, in every major news channel.The news channel first showed when Alex registered the company, and the press conference he held as they questioned him about the miracle drug which was successfully tested on various volunteer patients. However, he had refused to share the formula, making various ministries boycott him to no avail, as the drug literally sold itself, no matter how high Alex fixed the price.The news stations mysteriously got clips of various politicians, pharmacists, and people from the ministry threatening him about the formula, especially William Baltimore and his family members, before finally showing when Mia testified against Alex in court, despite the other witnesses giving positive testimonies.Alex nodded in satisfaction, this little clip aired by news companies had successfully conditioned public opinion
