The Almighty Dominance Chapter 108
Alex drew in a deep breath, suppressing his energy until he matched the guards at roughly level twenty.In a split second, he swung a fast punch at the nearest guard.The man’s face caved in under the blow—his nose broke, blood splattered, and two teeth flew out.Everyone froze. They had never expected Alex to retaliate so fiercely, this quickly.The “chicken” they had planned to hunt had suddenly turned into a tiger.Jack’s face went pale. “He’s only an ex-military grunt. You’re elite soldiers—go get him!” he yelled at the other guards.The remaining guards glanced uneasily at one another before closing in.Yet Alex moved with unbelievable speed.He delivered a swift kick to each man’s face, sending them reeling.Every guard seemed to move in slow motion while Alex alone looked like he was fighting in fast-forward.Before Jack realized what was happening, all of Marco’s guards were lying on the ground, groaning in pain.“You!” Jack stumbled backward, pointing at Alex.“You stole my s

“All he knows is violence, that filthy bastard!”Sophia paused, caught off guard. Alex was usually calm and controlled, but maybe her mother was right—maybe he was jealous now that Marco was around.So he really does love me, she thought, feeling her cheeks grow warm.“Why are you just standing there?” Florence snapped. “Aren’t you going to do something?”Right then, several security guards appeared, seizing Florence and Jack with hostile expressions.“Wait!” Marco stepped forward and held out a hand. “What do you think you’re doing?”“They insulted Miss Jasmine Kingston’s guests—accused them of being thieves—and deserve to be punished,” one guard spat.“Hold on.” Marco discreetly pressed some cash into the head guard’s hand.“I know Jasmine Kingston personally. I’ll make sure she hears how well you handled this. I’m sure she’ll let the insult slide. All right?”The head guard eyed the money—equal to a couple of months’ salary—and broke into a smile.“If you say so, sir. Just keep tho

She shook her head, took a slow breath. “No. It’s done. I won’t waste more time on him.”“But—”“That’s enough,” she said, cutting him off. “We need to focus on what really matters—I don’t want any trouble that could make Jasmine back out. He is too close to Kingston right now.”Reluctantly, Marco nodded.Meanwhile, Alex arrived at Vancouver’s premier hospital.Jasmine led him down a corridor into a VVIP suite, where an elderly woman—Elizabeth Kingston, Jasmine’s grandmother—lay pale and frail in a bed.Her skin looked paper-thin, her lips were cracked, and her breathing was shallow. Several doctors stood nearby, looking grim.“Jasmine, where have you been?” a man’s voice demanded.Charles, Jasmine’s older brother, glared as soon as she walked in. “Grandma could be breathing her last, and you’re off who-knows-where?”“Are you saying Grandma can’t be saved anymore, just because you believe there’s no hope?” Jasmine snapped back.“I’m just telling the truth,” Charles retorted. “She’s in

Elizabeth’s body jerked in a series of violent convulsions, her face turning a dusky blue as though the very breath of life were slipping away.Agony etched itself across her features, and her ragged scream ripped through the air, sending nurses and doctors scrambling to respond.Alarms blared from both sides of her bed, the machines’ frantic beeping echoing off the stark white walls, amplifying the sense of impending disaster.“What on earth is happening?” Dr. Yorick’s complexion went pale, his eyes brimming with shock.Jasmine’s expression hardened. “Explain this, Dr. Yorick!” she demanded, her voice laced with desperation.“That can’t be right… She was stable just a few hours ago,” he muttered, unease creeping into his tone.“Doctor, her heartbeat’s crashing!” a nurse shouted, voice high with urgency.“Get the defibrillator—now!” the head doctor barked.The medical team mobilized, hands flying as they fought to stabilize Elizabeth.But no matter what they did, the numbers on the mo

The room fell into stunned silence after witnessing Elizabeth’s miraculous revival.Alex reached into his coat pocket and retrieved a small, unremarkable pill, placing it gently between Elizabeth’s lips.With practiced care, he helped her swallow.Charles looked like a man who had just watched his entire world crumble.He had orchestrated every possible detail to hasten his grandmother’s demise and claim the inheritance his father had long denied him.Yet here was Alex, undoing all of his schemes in an instant.In a surge of desperation, Charles leveled a furious glare at Dr. Yorick.Frightened, the doctor realized that if he failed to act, his life would be forfeit.Slowly, Yorick forced himself upright, eyes alight with rage. He snatched a surgical knife from the nearby tray and charged at Alex.“Die, you devil!” Yorick shrieked, his face contorted in rage.“You’ve made a deal with the devil to raise the dead—no human could do what you just did!”A wave of shocked gasps swept throug

Alex rose to his feet, concern flickering in his gaze.“All right, I’ll take my leave now. Elizabeth, you need rest.”Jasmine stood up as well. “I’ll see you out,” she said, then turned to the old woman. “Nana, please don’t worry about Charles. You should rest, too.”Elizabeth closed her eyes, heaving a tired sigh.“You’re right, child. It’s not like I don’t know his temper after all these years. Maybe it’s my fault for spoiling him too much.”Meanwhile, in another hospital room down the hallway, a similar scene was unraveling—albeit with far more chaos.Jack, every inch of him in bandages, lay moaning on his hospital bed.Thick plaster casts wrapped around both legs, and his head was swathed so tightly that only his nose and mouth showed.His eyes burned with anger.“Mom! I can’t believe Alex actually hit me. You have to teach that bastard a lesson he’ll never forget!” he whined, nearly spitting with rage.Florence smoothed her hand over Jack’s blanket as if to soothe him. “Don’t wo

Four black vans thundered onto the street like a posse riding in at high noon.They skidded to a stop, pinning Jasmine’s limousine from the front and rear.About twenty men poured out, each one armed to the teeth and hiding behind masks. Their leader—burly, tatted up, and mean as a rattlesnake—stepped right up to the window, pounding on the glass with his fist. “Both of you get out, or we’ll blow this tin can to pieces!” he snarled. Inside the limo, Jasmine’s face went pale. The driver looked just as rattled. “Driver,” came Alex’s calm voice. “Y-yes?” the driver stammered, too stunned to keep his voice steady. “I hear this car’s sound system can rattle bones. Mind turnin’ it up to full blast?” Alex leaned back, eyes half-lidded like he hadn’t a care in the world. The driver blinked. “What?” ‘Is this fella crazy?’ he thought. ‘Bullets are spraying outside, and he wants music?’“Classical, if you’ve got it,” Alex added, letting his eyes fall closed. Jasmine watched him, her own
The Almighty Dominance Chapter 115
Suddenly, there was only silence in the car.The four black vans had already driven away in a hurry, leaving their friends' bodies sprawled on the asphalt.The surrounding cars, whose drivers had witnessed the scene, stayed far away, unwilling to get involved."Hey, driver," Alex called out. "Don’t you think it’s time to move out? What are you waiting for?"The driver, who had been enjoying the music accompanying his journey to the afterlife, slowly opened his eyes and glanced around.A jolt of shock ran through him. The obstruction that had once blocked his path was gone."Yes, yes, Sir."He hastily pushed the pedal, and as the car started moving, it bumped slightly—rolling over the bodies on the road.Jasmine stared out of the window, her eyes lost in the blue sky and the rows of passing houses."Don’t you want to ask who they were?" Alex asked, breaking the heavy silence."Not really," Jasmine replied, her voice soft but dismissive."They’re like cockroaches—keep coming after me. H

An hour earlier, Sophia had stepped quietly out of the hospital doors, a ghostly shadow haunted by restless thoughts.For days, she'd kept her family at arm's length, erecting an invisible barrier around her wounded heart.Her soul felt raw, tormented by relentless doubts about Alex.Perhaps she had always been unfair, perhaps she should have trusted him sooner.After all, their marriage was already torn to shreds; yet, somewhere deep inside, she knew Alex deserved an apology far greater than her pride allowed.Paying a discreet detective employed by her family, Sophia easily uncovered the small clinic Alex ran near the slums.Guided by the instructions of her GPS, she drove slowly through the grimy streets, her eyes hollow with anticipation and dread.As she approached, the sight of bodyguards patrolling the perimeter, stern-faced and vigilant, set her pulse racing.Her heart twisted painfully upon glimpsing Jasmine standing intimately close to Alex, radiating confidence and allure.

Alex watched with icy indifference as Owen’s bodyguards surged forward and snatched the ornate box from his hand. He let them have it—this once.“You ignorant little quack,” Owen spat venomously, his sneer sharp enough to slice through steel."Heaven Root isn't just some miracle herb—it’s the ultimate treasure for warriors like us. You, a pathetic excuse for a doctor, couldn’t appreciate its worth even if it bit you in the ass!"Smugly, Owen slapped the box with contemptuous triumph.“Uncle Jericho’s already handed this over to me. It’s mine now, doctor boy.”Instead of exploding into fury, Alex’s lips twisted into a chilling, knife-edged smile directed straight at Jericho Kane.“Fool me once—shame on you. Twice—shame on me. But thrice? Then I'm the goddamn fool.”He strode past Jericho, leaning in close enough to whisper venomous words straight into his trembling ear.“If that Heaven Root isn't in my hand before I leave this cursed mansion, don't blame me when your bloodline ends thr

“Wonderful!” Joane gasped, eyes blazing with awe as she took in Alex's extraordinary display of skill.His perfect methods were nothing short of revolutionary.She, a doctor who arrogantly believed herself to have peaked in medicine, suddenly felt humbled and hopeful—like a blind woman seeing the sun for the first time.“Bella! How are you feeling? Any pain or discomfort?” Jericho’s voice cracked, disbelief and cautious joy battling inside him.Lidia stood trembling beside him, her eyes wide and glistening.Neither had dared to dream of a miracle—yet now one stood defiantly before them.“Dad… Mom… this is crazy. I don't feel weak anymore! It's gone!” Bella touched herself frantically, amazement painting her face.Her heart thumped loudly, stronger and more alive than she'd ever known.“Oh, thank heavens! It's truly gone!” Lidia cried out, voice choked with gratitude. She nearly fell to her knees, intending to grovel before Alex.“No, Mrs. Kane—please!” Alex swiftly stepped forward, ge

“What?”All eyes snapped toward the bed, and a collective gasp filled the room.Bella, whose complexion had shown signs of life mere moments before, now lay grotesquely pale, blood trickling ominously from her nose and mouth.Her delicate features twisted with agony, the vivid crimson contrasting cruelly against her ashen skin.“What the hell is going on, Dr. Joane?” Jericho snapped, his voice tight and furious, eyes narrowed into dangerous slits.Joane stared at Bella, bewilderment and horror battling across her normally confident face."This—this doesn't make sense! Her heart was stable just minutes ago. How could she deteriorate this rapidly?"Jericho stepped forward aggressively, his fists clenched. “Then do something! Damn it, Joane, fix this before I kill you!”“Let me try again.” Joane, though shaken, quickly steadied her trembling hands and plunged into action once more, applying precise acupuncture points to reassert control over Bella’s failing heart.But the situation twist

As Alex and Josephine crossed the threshold of the Kane estate, he spotted a semi‑circle of white coats—Vancouver’s medical aristocracy—clustered like ravens in the marbled foyer.“You’re finally here, young man! Come in, quickly!” Lidia cried, her smile nearly swallowing her face.A ripple of unease crawled down Alex’s spine before he forced it away.“You claimed you could cure my daughter,” Jericho said, his baritone iron‑hard. “If you can’t, admit it now.”“I stand by my word,” Alex answered, a calm smile cutting across his face. “But the Heaven Root is my price—yes or no?”Jericho possessed the Heaven Root, a relic‑rare herb.Fortune and patience had handed him a single piece, and only recently had it ripened enough to be swallowed.He guarded it for Bella’s future years, because every powerful family in the province would claw for it if they smelled the chance.“Fine,” Jericho said, frost edging each syllable. “Heal her, and the Heaven Root is yours. Fail, and God help you.”“You

Lidia’s voice shook as she clutched Jericho’s sleeve.“What are we going to do now? Tell me Bella’s going to pull through, right?”Jericho leaned in, whispering through clenched teeth, “I don’t know,” his mind racing for any miracle he still hadn’t tried.His reservoir of inner inner energy was thinning to a dangerous trickle.Once that final spark died, Bella’s heartbeat would follow it into the darkness.Lidia’s gaze darted to the nightstand, where a crimson velvet box rested beside a handwritten note.The message, penned in Bella’s looping script, read, “If I’m ever in danger, use this pill.”She had even doodled a tiny red heart beside the words, her faith sealed in ink and emoji.“Jericho, we have to try this,” Lidia urged, snapping the lid open and lifting the bottle inside.It was the same elixir Alex had slipped Bella—her treasured keepsake, a vow of forever disguised as medicine.Jericho scowled. “A trinket from that punk? You really think this’ll pull her back from the grave

Alex looked at Bella and let out a weary sigh.He picked up a small glass bottle with a single pill inside and held it out to her.“If something happens to you,” he said quietly, “use this pill. But mark my words—this is just a temporary measure. You really do need help…and maybe I’m the only one who can provide it.”Bella’s heart fluttered, her breath caught in her throat, and before she could think twice, the words just tumbled out:“I believe in you.”Alex blinked, stunned. “…What?”Bella’s eyes widened. “I-I mean—yes! I… I have a heart condition,” she stammered, her cheeks turning a soft pink, like the sky before sunrise.“And I think… only you can fix it.”There was a long, awkward pause.Then, trying to recover, she waved her hands a little too fast.“N-not like that! I mean… not the mushy, love-struck kind of heart thing…”She looked away, biting her bottom lip, her voice dropping to a whisper.“I mean the real kind. The one that’s actually broken.”“A real, serious heart disea

“Jericho Kane? What does he want with the Heaven Root?” Alex asked.“I heard his daughter’s suffering from a rare genetic heart condition, and he thinks the Heaven Root can save her,” Kelly explained, glancing at Alex.“Bella Kane?” Alex repeated.“Yes,” Kelly confirmed.Alex let out a weary sigh. He imagined Bella hiding her pain beneath an elegant façade. No wonder Jericho Kane spoiled her every whim and excused her worst habits.“Alex, how should we handle this?” Kelly asked, her tone unsettled by the news.“I’ve got to get my hands on that Heaven Root,” Alex declared without hesitation.“There’s no time to waste. I’ll head to Vermont today.”He stepped outside the clinic and was stunned to see a group of homeless men clashing with two brutish thugs lugging a drum.The looks on those thugs’ faces made it clear they were up to no good.“What’s going on here?” Alex demanded.“Doc, these two louts were about to pour oil around the clinic,” one of the homeless men said.“We figure they

“Finally, Owen is here!” Bella let out a delighted laugh, her eyes shining with relief.“Bella! Scarlett! Are you alright?” The tall, broad-shouldered man rushed toward them, completely ignoring Alex as though he were invisible.He stood with a commanding presence, sharp-eyed and radiating an unmistakable air of nobility that set him apart from common folk.“We’re fine,” Bella answered, her voice bright with gratitude, “all thanks to Alex, who saved us.”“Oh, really?” Owen Whitman’s tone dripped with skepticism as he raked his gaze over Alex.“Bella, a man’s face doesn’t reveal his true character. You’d do well to steer clear of strangers.”Suddenly, Owen’s expression twisted. “Wait. I know you—aren’t you the Alex who had the nerve to slap Bella?”His eyes blazed with fury. “I’ve been searching everywhere for you after what you did to her.”Bella darted between Owen and Alex, her movements frantic.“Owen, stop it! It was my fault, and we’ve settled it already. My father forgave the wh
