At the mansion entrance, the butler bowed to Alex, his posture respectful.“I’m sorry for your trouble. Please, don’t take it to heart.”“No worries,” Alex replied.Suddenly, two bodyguards rushed out.“Stop there and follow us back to the room, or we’ll shoot,” one barked, their hands reaching for their weapons.Without hesitation, the butler struck both bodyguards across the face.They staggered back, stunned.“Fools,” the butler growled.“This young man is Mr. Kingston’s guest. Mind your words, or I’ll kill you both.”The bodyguards turned even paler.They had never seen the butler this angry and didn’t even realize how they were struck.They had heard the butler was once a feared assassin.“We... we’re sorry,” one of the bodyguards stammered.“But Miss Jasmine’s condition is critical, and Dr. Jenkin said this man poisoned her.”The butler’s eyes narrowed, his voice icy. “So, that idiot made a mistake and now wants to blame someone else?”He turned to Alex and bowed deeply, his ton

When Dr. Jenkin and Charles were still trying to understand the situation, they were already taken out by the butler outside the room.“Butler!” Charles wanted to protest.Yet, the butler cut him off, “Young master, you better prepare what you will say to your father. He is already on his way here.”Charles turned pale.Inside the room, Alex, without hesitation, cut away Jasmine’s clothes, leaving her naked.This time, he didn’t ask for any permission from Jessica anymore, as her condition was already critical.He put Jasmine in the bathtub and then took out nine acupuncture needles.As Alex flicked his hand, the needles seemed to find the points by themselves and landed on Jasmine’s body with precision.The water in the bathtub turned visibly murky brown and foul-smelling at an alarming rate.It was as if the toxins from Jasmine were rapidly being expelled from her body and neutralized by the chemicals in the bathtub.Alex pour another palm of ingredients into the bathtub.The next m

Previously, Alfred rushed to his mansion happily as he had just received the news that his daughter had finally been cured.He was grateful for Master Alex’s help and was already considering what gift to give as thanks.Yet, as soon as he reached home, the first thing he saw was his son audaciously yelling at the guard to hit the young master.Cold sweat broke out on Alfred's brow, and his heart seemed to freeze.The young master only needed to cough a bit, and the whole Kingston Group in Vancouver would be replaced by others at his whim."You fool!" enraged with fear, he kicked Charles to the ground.Meanwhile, the butler hastily rushed to Alfred to explain everything in a low voice.Jessica and Dr. Jenkin, who heard Alfred shouting, walked out of the room to check what had happened."Father, why kick me? It’s this man who showed disrespect to me…"Without a word, Alfred struck Charles across the face before he could finish.Two of Charles's teeth fell to the floor.Jessica gasped in

“Father,” Jasmine walked out of the room, and Alfred hastily rushed to her side. “Minnie, you are still unwell, rest first.”“It’s okay, Father,” Jasmine smiled. “I’ve never felt so energetic like this before.”“Minnie,” Alfred felt truly joyful. “Come, let’s say thanks to your doctor.”Jasmine stepped forward, blushing shyly. “Thank you for healing me.”“You’re welcome.”Albert took out two sets of keys and respectfully handed them to Alex.One set was the key to the limited edition of the newest Sport car Bugatti La Voiture Noire, which was worth $ 20 million.The other set was the key to the mansion, which was worth $ 500 million.Alex had rejected them once, but now Albert thought it was the right time.“This is a small token of thanks. I know it’s nothing much to you, but please accept it. I hope you don’t find it lacking.”Jessica and Charles were once again stunned by the scene.The amount was far beyond the usual consultation f*e.And Albert was showing an excessive level of re

“Are you certain you want us to dine at your place, Sophia?” Chris inquired.“Why don’t we consider Vancouver First Restaurant instead? It’s on me.”“I appreciate it, but I’m really not feeling up to it. You know what’s been troubling me,” Sophia sighed.“Don’t worry about it. My dad is already working his connections. He’ll inform me if there’s any positive news about Kingston Enterprise.”Chris moved closer, putting an arm around her waist for comfort.All of a sudden, Lyra let out a scream as if she’d seen a ghost.“Holy cow!”“What’s going on?” Sophia rushed to Lyra’s side.Chris dropped his arm and frowned.“I swear I just saw Alex in that luxury car that passed by. Am I seeing things?” Lyra asked, staring at the car in disbelief.Or maybe it was just someone who resembled Alex?She wasn’t sure.“You must be joking!” Chris scoffed, shaking his head. “Didn’t you notice the license plate?”“But—”“That car clearly belongs to someone wealthy or significant. There’s no way Alex could

Alex stepped into the store while Alfred waited by the entrance.As soon as Alex entered, the cold air greeted him, and the exquisite jewelry immediately caught his attention.The store was lavishly decorated, from the ceiling to the walls."Let’s choose the most expensive piece here for Sophia," he thought, eyes sweeping over the glittering jewels."Would she prefer emerald, or diamonds?" he mused, his gaze drifting over the dazzling array of gems.Even the least expensive earrings at Elegance & Co were priced above $10,000, and Alex was certain Sophia would be amazed.She would be thrilled to receive the gift, along with the invitation to the banquet.Meanwhile, at the other end of the store, a young woman was browsing jewelry, accompanied by a middle-aged man with a noticeable belly.The woman stood beside him, admiring the pieces in the display case."Tommy, baby, don’t you think I’d look stunning in these earrings?" she nudged the man. "Will you buy them for me, sweetheart?""The

"Sir, please—" the sales representative attempted to intervene."You must remove this poor fool immediately! He’s ruining our shopping experience, and I won’t tolerate it," the man insisted.Beatrix crossed her arms, watching the situation unfold with a smug expression, her head held high, exuding arrogance and confidence.The sales representative was caught in a difficult position.She didn’t want to choose sides. What could she do? If she followed the man’s orders, she’d be driving away a customer.Yet, she didn’t want to upset the old man either.She spoke into the intercom, saying, "Mr. Jerry, we have a bit of a situation here. Could you come quickly, please?"Within a minute, a man with a stern expression appeared...Jerry White, the store’s sales manager, had arriv

Alfred was already aware of what had transpired before entering the store, and he was furious.How dare anyone show such disrespect to his Young Master and his daughter’s savior!If Alex blamed him for Jerry’s incompetence, all the effort Alfred had put into building a good reputation and trying to earn Alex’s favor would be for nothing.Alfred felt an overwhelming urge to punish Jerry—this useless troublemaker had only caused problems!He deserved to be dealt with harshly.With these thoughts in mind, Alfred immediately ordered his bodyguards to escort the middle-aged man and his arrogant mistress out of the store."I don’t ever want to see them in this store again!" Alfred warned.As Jerry watched, the color drained from his face, and his eyes filled with fear.He looked like a terrified chicken as he cowered in a corner."Where is that incompetent manager? Come out here this instant!"Jerry crawled out from where he had been hiding in the corner and fell flat on his knees. "Sir, I

“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

A thunderous crash split the air as the glass doors of the center were smashed in, shards spraying across the floor.Without hesitation, ten masked assassins swept inside.“Damn it, they caught up to us!” Scarlett spat. They had been ambushed along the way to the slums, where their entire security detail was wiped out.Only she and Bella survived and managed to escape—or so they thought.The assassins refused to let them go.“Bella, I’ll hold them off,” Scarlett hissed. “You have to get out through the back door.”Bella’s face had gone pale. “If I run, you’ll definitely be killed. I’m their main target, so they won’t harm me. Let me be their hostage.”“Bella, I’m your bodyguard,” Scarlett said, planting herself in front of Bella with grim resolve.“My job is to protect you—so do as I say.”A cold, ragged voice interrupted them.“No need to argue. This place has no back door—you’re not going anywhere. We’ll be taking both of you.”A middle-aged man with a scarred face stepped in, laugh

The days that followed felt eerily calm, the kind of hush that settles after a tempest.Jasmine Kingston’s iron will now reigned over the streets of Vancouver.Under her genius leadership, the city rose to unprecedented heights, surpassing anything it had witnessed before.Alfred Kingston held sway over the sprawling metropolis of Los Angeles.Even Kelly had carved out her domain in the rugged territory of Vermont.Though her claim was recent and largely untested, the backing from both Vancouver and L.A. was enough to keep any potential challengers at bay.Guided by the Kingston family’s teachings, Kelly’s skills blossomed with startling speed, like a flower flourishing under a midday sun.During that time, Alex had transformed a decrepit building at the edge of a slum into a humble clinic—and a refuge from the world.He kept his true identity concealed, operating the clinic for a mere two or three hours each day to provide free treatment to those who had nowhere else to go, particula

“Pardon me, folks—out of the room, now. The patient needs quiet if she’s going to heal.”The nurse herded them into the corridor, her heels clicking like a judge’s gavel announcing adjournment.Instead of dispersing, they clustered beneath the fluorescent lights, still reeling from the bombshell that had just gone off in their lives.“Can you believe it? Alex, of all people, is the Lancaster Group’s silent bankroll!” Jack’s uncle whispered, voice rough with intrigue.“Think the guy’s hiding some secret pedigree?”“Alex?” Florence scoffed.“I dug through every record—he’s a nobody. Sure, he did a stint in the military, which makes him tough enough to hit Bella, but besides that he’s an orphan with empty pockets.”Heads nodded; the story was too tidy to question.One of the family suddenly asked, “Why are all of you looking down on Alex?”“Looking down on him?” Florence laughed.“Impossible. We simply don’t care about him. We’re not heartless. We don’t prejudge people. Even if he’s poor

“I’ve made everything crystal clear, haven’t I? But since when have you ever trusted a single word out of my mouth?” Alex snapped.“You should’ve laid it all out for me, at the very least! How am I supposed to believe you when you never treat anything with real seriousness?” Sophia fired back, her anger seething.“So it’s my fault again,” Alex muttered, feeling a wave of exhaustion wash over him.“I’m always in the wrong, no matter what I do. And you? You’re forever right. Fine. Have it your way—you’re right.”“Of course I’m right,” Sophia retorted in a sharp burst, then instantly regretted her words.“I’m done caring,” Alex growled, jerking his arm away from her grip with deliberate force.“We’re finished here. Let go of me.”His eyes bore into her as though she was a complete stranger.No—she was staring at a man who’d been pushed too far, who’d had enough.She sensed that if she let him go, he might never return to her side again.“What do you want from me, Alex? Can’t you quit act

“Alex, why? Why are you so hell-bent on being this stubborn? Can’t you just apologize?”Sophia demanded, her voice trembling as disappointment flooded her eyes.She couldn’t fathom how that once boastful man had sunk so low—raising his hand against Bella, locking himself behind narrow-minded walls, brimming with jealousy, and repaying kindness with cruelty.Just an apology—how hard can it be?Sophia yearned for that slap to jolt him awake.“Sink into the darkness, Alex. Taste the agony that I’ve endured!” Charles whispered, almost lovingly, as his eyes drank in the chaos with sickening delight.There was a twisted satisfaction blooming in his chest—a vile warmth—watching them unravel, watching their faces twist in pain.Misery was his playground.And seeing others drown in it? That was the only thing that made him feel alive.He’d had to bleed a little to make his act convincing, but seeing Sophia strike Alex made triumph coil in his chest.“That was a masterpiece of a slap! He deserv

The instant Clara ended her tale, Alex went rigid, rooted to the floor.He hadn’t expected her to flip the entire narrative in front of everyone and leave him hanging like a thief caught red‑handed.“Did you all hear that?” Florence screeched, her voice slicing through the ballroom chatter.“There it is—the naked truth! Let’s see you wriggle out of this one, Alex!”“Ungrateful doesn’t even begin to cover it,” she piled on.“You twist kindness into poison and spit it back at the people who saved you. Utterly shameless.”The Lancasters hissed and spat, recoiling as if he carried a plague.Their eyes drilled holes in him, seething with contempt.Tears streaked down Clara’s cheeks. “I’m sorry, everyone. I didn’t want to end up dead at Bella’s hands, so I hid the bracelet in Sophia’s bag. I did it to survive—because Bella’s real target is Alex. I’m sorry.”Florence swooped in, wrapping an arm around Clara. “Don’t worry, dear. We understand. This all started because of Alex. Sophia will for

“Mom, what the hell’s going on?”Sophia asked, her voice shaky as she looked at Florence with wide, uncertain eyes.Florence edged closer and perched on the bed, fixing Sophia with a wary gaze.“Listen, Sophia. Bella Kane attacked you, remember? Then the Kanes sent their goons to tear down our companies. Charles promised to help us out this mess, but only if I agreed to let him marry you.”“Mom—” Sophia began.“Sophia, hush,” Florence said with a pointed smile.“We’re talking about Charles Kingston here, the top dog in Vancouver, practically royalty. You couldn’t snag a better husband if you tried. You’re divorced now, and sooner or later, you’ll have to marry again. I want grandkids, and I want them from the best stock.”“Mom…” Sophia tried to speak, but Florence cut her off.“I already gave Charles my word. Your uncles are all in on it. Every single one of them wants you to marry Charles to cement an alliance between the Lancaster and Kingston families.”“The Lancaster Group board a
