The Almighty Dominance Chapter 174
Jasmine shot Mr. Wolf a glare so fierce it could’ve cut through steel.“Listen, Wolf. Be cautious if you want, but stop pointing fingers at Alex. He’s the only one here I actually trust.”Wolf—Gabriel Wolf—folded his arms and threw a sneer Alex’s way.“Word on the street is he’s a two-bit con artist who sweet-talks rich women out of their money. Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s the rat in the room.”Jasmine’s anger flared. She jabbed a finger at him. “Another word out of you, and I’ll shred our contract right here and now.”Gabriel raised his hands in mock surrender. “Fine. If you wanna cozy up to a possible backstabber, be my guest.”Jasmine ignored him, pivoting toward Alex with a remorseful look.“I’m sorry. My top guards are in Los Angeles with my father, and the rest followed Charles. These elite soldiers? They’re from my mother’s side of the family.”Alex shrugged, calm as ever. “Doesn’t matter. We’re here for one reason—to get Kelly back. We’re not exactly on vacation.”She offered

“How could this be?” Jasmine was stunned, her confidence shattered by the unexpected defeat.No one had anticipated Gabriel would fall so easily—especially to someone who looked so weak.One of the vice leaders rushed forward, grabbing Gabriel from the arena and shaking him awake.Gabriel groaned, then blinked as he came to.“So, I lost?”He stood up, rubbing his head, but instead of regret, a smirk stretched across his face.“I’m sorry, Miss Kingston. I didn’t expect to meet someone that strong,” he said, shrugging.“But don’t worry! My vice leader will secure the next two wins. We can still turn this around.”He turned to Karl. “Karl, you’re up next. Make sure you win this round.”“Yes, leader!” Karl responded and immediately stepped toward the arena.“Stop it!” Kelly suddenly shouted, her voice sharp with fury.“You’re losing on purpose!”“Don’t you dare send another one of your men in! Jasmine, these people are trying to drag us down!”“Shut up,” Gabriel shot back. “We’re trying t

“Listen, we don’t want any trouble.” One of the bodyguards eased his grip on his weapon, stepping away from the carnage.“We’ve got no loyalty to anyone but our paychecks.“Our boss is dead; we’re only here because we’re paid to guard Miss Jasmine. If she keeps signing the checks, we’ll stay out of this mess.”A handful of others nodded, clearly relieved at the easy out.Whether or not Gabriel had been selling himself or all of them out as Jericho’s spy hardly mattered to them—money was money, and if there was a safer way to earn it, they wouldn’t miss the chance.Jasmine gave them a curt nod. “I’ll keep you on the payroll. Just don’t meddle in this fight.”“Works for us,” one replied. The rest quickly agreed.Jericho clearly saw that Gabriel’s people had stopped fighting for Jasmine.“That damn Gabriel,” he muttered, his face twisting in anger. “I told him to pay his men, yet he used the money all for himself. That fucking greed of his... fits him right to die.”His eyes darkened wit

“We’ll drive out of Vermont, and once we’re past the Vancouver border, Jericho Kane can kiss my ass,” Jasmine declared, her voice tight with determination.Kelly huddled over a map, tapping a spot with her finger. “It’s about an eight-hour haul from here,” she noted. “But once we link up with Lydia’s chopper, we’re golden.”Jasmine nodded. “She’s on standby. As soon as we reach the rendezvous, we’ll be in the clear.”Her jaw clenched as she glanced at the winding roads ahead. “But first, we’ve gotta ditch Kane’s goons.”They formed a quick plan: three SUVs taking three different routes, each one a decoy to confuse any potential pursuers.Jasmine, Kelly, Alex, and two bodyguards piled into one of the vehicles.For a while, they sped down forest-lined roads, winding turns making it feel like the trees were closing in. Just as they approached a fork:CRASH!A massive tree slammed down, blocking the road completely. The driver cursed, slamming on the brakes.Dark shapes materialized from

Two of Lydia’s soldiers lunged at Alex in a synchronized move, each trying to knock him off balance with a forceful kick aimed at his knee.The blows landed, but Alex didn’t budge an inch.It felt, to them, like their legs had just collided with a slab of solid iron.One soldier let out a strangled cry as he crumpled to the ground, clutching his shattered shin.The other toppled over next to him, howling in agony.“Y-you monster!” another soldier snarled, leveling his weapon at Alex’s head.Several more followed suit, forming a ring of gun barrels pointed straight at him.Suddenly, one of the men who’d been aiming at Alex turned his rifle away from its target.Without warning, he pulled the trigger—twice—blowing the heads off two of his own comrades in a grisly, explosive spray.“What the hell just happened?” someone shouted, horror-stricken.“I—I don’t know!” cried the shooter, eyes wide with panic. “My hand… it moved on its own!”“Drop that damn gun!” barked another soldier, voice t

Inside, Kelly sat on one side, her jaw clenched so hard it was a wonder her teeth didn’t crack.“They're traitors, Jasmine,” Kelly hissed, eyes burning. “Dirty, backstabbing traitors. And you know what we do with traitors?”“We crush them. We make them regret the day they decided to cross us.”Jasmine pressed two fingers against her temple, trying to will away the headache that pounded behind her eyes.She’d had enough chaos for one day.“I get it, Kelly,” she said in a low voice. “But we need a real plan.”Kelly’s eyes flickered with frustration.“You want a plan? How about we start by tossing every piece of human trash that came out of Detroit or Winston? You heard that bastard Charles—he’s still got connections everywhere.”A muscle in Jasmine’s cheek twitched.If only she’d been more ruthless, if only she’d shut the door on Charles for good.But regrets wouldn’t keep them safe now.“Jasmine, Hesitation is the enemy of power. Strike first, or be struck down."“You know we can’t jus

After countless hours of darkness, Alex’s eyes finally fluttered open.A dull ache pulsed through his entire body.“Alex, you’re awake?”The relief in Kelly’s voice practically echoed off the sterile hospital walls.Her eyes were brimming with unshed tears, and before he knew what was happening, she latched onto him in a fierce hug.“You had me scared half to death,” she whispered, voice trembling. “Don’t ever pull something like that again.”Alex gave a weak chuckle, trying to shift into a more comfortable position.“I’m fine, Kelly. Quit looking at me like I’m about to keel over any second. Where… where am I?”Before Kelly could respond, the door swung open with a loud click.Jasmine glided in, followed by Lyra, each looking polished and stunning in their own right.“Alex!” Jasmine exclaimed, her tone tinged with urgency. She rushed to his bedside. “Thank God you’re alright. We were worried.”Alex offered her a faint smile. “Little banged up, but I’ll live.”Jasmine’s gaze flickered

With a warm smile, Charles crossed his arms and spoke to Jasmine in a voice as soft and sweet as honey.“I don’t have time to play games with you, sis. But if you ever realize that your greed has led you astray—if God spares you—and you decide to hand back what’s rightfully mine, then come find me. Return the throne of Vancouver to its true king.”He turned sharply on his heel, tossing a final jab over his shoulder. “I hope you figure out the right path instead of chasing demons. But I won’t hold my breath.”Jasmine stood there, her eyes wide in disbelief.Their father had once assured her that Vancouver would belong to her, while Charles got Los Angeles.How could Charles now claim that he was in the right—and she was the one in the wrong?Alex placed a comforting hand on Jasmine’s arm.“You know how it is when someone sets their desire and ambition on something. They’ll rationalize anything to get it—destroy whomever they need to, all under the guise of good intentions.”The road to

"Alex? You again," Henry sneered, turning sharply with venomous eyes fixed on the man who dared interrupt his triumph."What the hell brings a lowlife like you here?""Just working," Alex drawled casually, his tone dripping disdain."But you still haven't answered me: Did you kill this brute to keep him quiet?""Are you out of your damned mind?" Henry scoffed arrogantly, looking down his nose at Alex as though addressing a rat beneath his boots."This bastard attacked innocent folks. I just did Vermont a favor—no thanks necessary.""You? A favor?" Alex's eyes darkened dangerously."I reckon you'd better come clean with your connections to Tommy and this big guy right here.""Connections?" Henry laughed scornfully, his voice echoing off the opulent walls."You accusing me of running the Vermont underworld, Alex? You really think I'm the mastermind behind all this?""Am I supposed to believe you’re innocent — along with everyone else standing here?" Alex fired back without blinking.Hen

There was a deafening silence in the private room—a quiet so intense it could've shattered glass.Shock had stolen every word from their tongues; the spectacle they'd just witnessed had left them stunned, breathless.Moments ago, Shane stood tall as their hero, an idol of raw strength, strutting like a champion—but now he lay sprawled on the floor, beaten and discarded like a mangy dog.Who the hell was this bald beast that demolished Shane with such ruthless ease?"I'm Kelly. State your purpose clearly," Kelly demanded, her voice steady but edged with ice.The towering brute turned slowly, his leering eyes crawling over Kelly's curves, dripping with crude hunger."Such beauty wasted in this place," he sneered lustfully.Then his gaze slid sideways, recognizing another familiar face."Bella Kane? Good. Saves me the trouble of hunting you down. Your old man owes me plenty.""Enough!" Kelly snapped, stepping fiercely in front of Bella, shielding her protectively."Spit it out, what the

“Just finish the bastard off,” Tommy spat dismissively, his voice dripping with disdain, not even bothering to consider who Shane's father was.The contempt in his eyes glowed brighter than the flickering neon signs overhead, ruthless and cold.“Yes, boss!” His thugs snapped in unison, eager for bloodshedMetal hissed through the air as iron batons emerged from under jackets, their blunt surfaces gleaming menacingly beneath the lights.“You clowns think you can impress me with this pitiful sideshow?” Shane sneered coldly, a sinister chuckle escaping his lips as he faced them down, unflinching.“Allow me to educate you fools properly.”With explosive speed, Shane launched himself forward, his movements savage and precise.His leg cut through the air in a ferocious arc, a brutal roundhouse kick that smashed one thug's jaw with a sickening crack.Blood and teeth sprayed into the night like confetti of violence, an artistry of ruthless aggression.The remaining men hesitated, eyes wide wi

Some middle-aged men suddenly appeared, calling urgently for Kelly.“Miss Kingston, we have waiting for you.”Kelly glanced irritably at them, then at Bella, sighing softly as she leaned close to Alex's ear."Sorry, Alex, I have to deal with these vultures. Keep an eye out—I might need rescuing."Alex rolled his eyes dismissively."They're all weaker than you, Kelly. As long as they don't intentionally provoke you, their old bones will be fine.""Who knows," Kelly muttered with a resigned shrug, moving reluctantly toward the middle-aged men hungry for favors and connections.Bella swiftly seized Alex's arm, pulling him to sit beside her.She launched immediately into cheerful chatter, leaving Shane feeling awkward and ignored by the two women.Scarlett glared daggers at Alex, a storm of inexplicable irritation clouding her face."Scarlett," Shane hissed suspiciously, narrowing his eyes at Alex, "who exactly is that guy?"Scarlett smirked contemptuously, her voice dripping venom."Him?

It was an evening at the Vermont Club—a sanctuary reserved exclusively for those who held Vermont's true reins of power.In the lavish hall, beneath chandeliers that scattered golden light, people sipped cocktails, pretending to enjoy the music while secretly plotting their next move, scheming how to slice the largest portion from the governor’s pie.Bella Kane slumped onto the velvet sofa, chin resting listlessly in her palms.In front of her, a lively group of youths laughed and sang, their voices echoing mockingly around her indifferent ears.Across the room, grey-haired power brokers exchanged cunning whispers, eyes narrowed with hidden agendas."Bella," Scarlett sighed impatiently from beside her, "your father tasked you to charm Kelly Kingston on behalf of the Kane family. So why are you sulking here like a deflated balloon?"Scarlett's voice was tinged with irritation and bewilderment.Ever since recovering from her illness, Bella had transformed from the fierce rock-and-roll q

Jasmine strode forward, her heels clicking like gunshots across the polished marble floor, eyes blazing with barely restrained fury as she confronted Henry Dupont.“Careful, Henry,” she warned, her voice icy but edged with fire.“Accusations without proof could burn you alive.”Henry threw his head back and laughed bitterly, the sound cutting through the murmurs of anticipation like a razor blade.“Oh, isn't she priceless?” He swung around to face the crowd, his voice rising sharply, deliberately loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.“Do you all hear this nonsense? Last month, Kingston Pharmaceutical’s chief of medical research and his elite team lost all faith in Jasmine Kingston's sham leadership and abandoned ship. Who could blame them?”“Those brilliant minds took the SkinDew patent—legally theirs—and fled to Kane Pharmaceutical.”“They perfected SkinDew there, away from Jasmine's incompetence!” Henry sneered dramatically, relishing every scathing word.He jabbed an accusing f

“The Emerald Elixir is dangerous?” Murmurs erupted like wildfire, spreading panic and suspicion through the hall.At the heart of the disruption stood a police officer, rotund with arrogance and disdain plainly painted on his flushed, perspiring face.His voice boomed obnoxiously, a smug sneer twisting his lips, “When I declare something dangerous, you better believe it's deadly!”Jasmien’s eyes widened in shock, her heart plunging to her stomach.This was a disaster she hadn't anticipated.An incident like this at her meticulously arranged press conference spelled doom.Even if the product was later proven harmless, Kingston Pharmaceutical’s reputation still hung by a thread.The media would pounce first—and by the time the truth surfaced, the damage would already be irreversible. The stain on their name could outlast the facts, lingering like a shadow.The word “dangerous” echoed ominously, branding the Elixir with a toxic stigma—a curse that could doom its commercial future.From a

Charles stormed toward Jasmine's hall, only to halt abruptly, his jaw dropping in disbelief.The hall was already swarming, packed so tightly it seemed to ripple with anticipation.People jostled for seats, their excitement palpable, like sharks sensing blood.Staff scrambled to form a protective barricade around Dr. Joane, who stood serenely conversing with Alex, entirely indifferent to the seething crowd pressing closer.Jasmine watched gleefully, a predatory smile tugging at her lips.Clearly, using Dr. Joane as bait had worked far better than she'd dared hope.Standing tall, Jasmine seized a microphone, her voice ringing like polished steel through the restless chatter."Thank you all for your overwhelming enthusiasm. Unfortunately, due to the sheer number gathered here today, only our top ten customers will have the exclusive honor of consulting directly with Dr. Joane."She gestured grandly to the eager faces, eyes gleaming with triumph."For now, please find your seats.

At that precise moment, the grandeur of Dupont’s event erupted into full bloom.The massive double doors swung open, and a wave of guests surged inside, voices rising with excitement as they scrambled to claim their seats.The atmosphere crackled with electric anticipation.Henry Dupont scanned the rapidly growing crowd, a smug, triumphant smile stretching across his face.They had finally outsmarted Kingston, beating them to the punch.Even Kingston's desperate, last-minute attempt at hosting their conference across the way was doomed from the start.Without guests, it was little more than a pathetic joke.Henry chuckled darkly, his heart swelling with arrogant satisfaction.The lord of Chicago had decisively won this round.Everything was unfolding flawlessly.By day's end, SkinDew Essence would dominate headlines and conversations, spreading like wildfire.Whatever scraps Kingston might later produce would simply languish in the shadow of his glorious success.His ambitious vision—
