The Almighty Dominance Chapter 199
The Sub-Inspector sighed, like a man too tired to care anymore.He raised his sidearm.Viper shrieked, voice cracking in terror. “No, no, no! I made mistake but you can’t just kill me! There’s a procedure—a trial! I want my lawyer! There’s still law in this country, right?!” Alex glanced over his shoulder, voice cold.“Relax, Viper. You won’t be alone. Your boss Raymond’s next in line.”The door clicked shut behind them as a single gunshot shattered Viper’s last plea.Sophia half-turned, just in time to catch a glimpse of Viper’s body hitting the concrete in a lifeless heap.They stepped outside, the faint evening light hitting their faces like a cruel reminder this was real.Across the street stood Jasmine, flanked by her own bodyguards.Her expression flickered with worry before twisting into a scowl the moment she spotted Alex’s hand clutching Sophia’s.She stalked over in her designer heels, posture rigid, eyes brimming with rage.“Well, well,” she snapped, crossing her arms.“Lo

Henry Dupont’s voice cut through the room like the crack of a whip.“Raymond, don’t get ahead of yourself. If you want my father’s backing, there are two conditions. First, provide the miracle pill in a steady supply. Second, prove your loyalty—beyond a shadow of doubt. Understood?”Raymond nodded, swallowing his annoyance. “I understand, Mr. Dupont.”He needed the support of Chicago’s Dupont family— one of the five ruling powers operating under the Chicago Lords banner—to solidify his position.If the Kingstons destroyed themselves in Vancouver, the Duponts might just help him take it over.Before either man could speak again, a crash and frantic yells erupted from the garden.“What’s going on?” Raymond snapped, eyes narrowing.A bodyguard stumbled into the room, his face ashen. “Boss—someone’s broken in!”Raymond rose from his chair in a surge of rage. “Who is it? How many?”“We couldn’t get a good look. It’s too dark... but he’s alone,” the guard stammered. “We tried to stop him, b

A flicker of moonlight glanced off Alex’s eyes as he loomed over Raymond, whose entire body quaked in terror.One arm dangled uselessly, shattered by Alex’s impossible strength.Cold sweat rolled down Raymond’s temples, the pain shooting through his bones in relentless waves.He couldn’t wrap his mind around it.How had this young man crippled him so swiftly—so effortlessly? With a flick?“W-who are you?” Raymond choked out, voice raw with panic.All his life, he’d amassed power and influence, yet here he was, reduced to a groveling mess by a single young man’s might.Alex’s expression was ice-cold. “You know who I am, Raymond. Stop pretending otherwise.”Every nerve in Raymond’s body screamed in agony.He tried scrambling backward like a wounded animal, breath heaving.“I—I don’t need the miracle pills formula. Just let me go!”“I offered you a chance,” Alex said evenly, his voice hollow. “You spat on it. Now, there’s no going back.”Raymond opened his mouth to plead again, but Alex’

Henry stood tall, even though his knees were practically quivering under Alex’s gaze.Pride wouldn’t let him back down. After all, if he caved now, he’d never live it down.“Kill me? Seriously, pal? What, you think you’re some hotshot assassin?” Henry spat, his chest heaving.“Let me tell you something: You so much as graze me the wrong way, and your body’s gonna be nothing but confetti.”Alex cocked an eyebrow, then smacked Henry in the back of the head hard enough to make him stagger.The force felt like a semi-truck plowing through Henry’s skull.“Confetti, huh?” Alex sneered, stepping closer.“I just about rattled your brain, and guess what? I’m still breathing. Look, you threatened my family, so everything’s fair game now. Ready to die? I can make that happen—no problem.”Henry stumbled, heart pounding.He could practically taste death in the air, and it was nothing like his empty bluster.Dropping to his knees, he swallowed his shame as if it were a knife scraping down his throa

Alex stood in the dimly lit alley, arms stiff at his sides, completely paralyzed by Jasmine’s audacious invitation.She stood inches from him, eyes squeezed shut, lips pursed like she was about to deliver the world’s most exasperated kiss.“Are you kidding me right now?” he blurted, heart hammering. “What’s wrong with your mouth? Need me to check or something?”Jasmine cracked an eye open, her mouth twisting into a smirk that sparkled with wicked amusement.“I’m letting you kiss me, genius,” she muttered. “Don’t tell me you’re too thickheaded to figure that out.”Alex’s jaw dropped.He was sure he looked like a landed fish gasping for air.“You’re messing with me,” he rasped, eyes darting away. “This can’t be good.”Jasmine rolled her eyes so hard he half expected to hear a clicking sound. “It’s not my fault you’re clueless. I’m practically giving it away here.”“…”“Look,” Jasmine hissed, leaning in closer, to Alex “I’m doing this once. And if you don’t take it now, then consider tha
The Almighty Dominance Chapter 204
An hour later, Alex and Jasmine strolled through the grand double doors of Kingston Mansion as if it were a casual Sunday jaunt.At the center of the lavish sitting room sat Charles, flanked by Jessica (Jasmine’s mother) and an elegant old man with a posture so rigid it might crack.The old man’s eyes roved over everything with quiet calculation.Jasmine’s heartbeat thudded in her ears, but she managed a cold smile. “Mother, you summoned me. Spill.”Jessica’s expression was as frosty as the marble floors beneath them. “I want no family drama right now—only professionalism. Can you do that, Jasmine?”Jasmine turned to Charles and raised an eyebrow. “I assume you have some brilliance to share, big brother?”Charles steepled his fingers in theatrical calm, but his tone snapped like a whip.“Let’s skip the niceties. You and I both own shares of Kingston Pharmaceuticals, but the bulk belongs to Mother’s side of the family. They’ve appointed me to evaluate your… performance.” His smugness d

Charles made it painfully clear he was out for blood this time, determined to humiliate Alex in front of the entire Kingston family.He leaned back in his chair, sneering as though he owned the room.“So, genius,” Alex drawled sarcastically.“You’re telling me this Lydia—the one who tried to murder Jasmine and backstab Jasmine Kingstons—is the same woman you wanted me to just let walk free? Are you off your meds, or do you have a permanent vacancy sign dangling in that empty head of yours?”Charles’s face twitched, eyes glinting with dangerous rage.“How dare you question me? Even if she’s a traitor, Lydia was one of ours. Who gave you the right to kill her?”“The Kingstons handle Kingston business, not some no-name punk like you! Ever think of choosing your battles correctly before butting into our family affairs?”Alex scoffed, a sharp laugh slicing through the tense air.“Oh, sure. I help clear out a scumbag who tried to assassinate your own flesh and blood, and instead of thanks,
The Almighty Dominance Chapter 206
Charles slammed his palms on the gleaming marble table so hard that everyone in the room flinched.He fixed Alex with a scornful glare, lips twisted into a sneer that practically reeked of condescension.“Cut the crap!” he thundered, his tone rolling through the air like distant thunder.“Don’t you dare compare your lowly peasant life to mine. Seriously, take a good look at yourself in the mirror—if you can stand the sight.”Alex leaned back against his chair, crossing his arms with the kind of ease that only comes from complete self-confidence.“You always this full of hot air, Charles? If you’re too much of a coward to accept my challenge, just get on your knees, admit you’re a spineless poser, and apologize with one of your arms. Maybe I’ll find it in my heart to forgive your sorry behind.”Charles’s face went red as a brick, anger roaring inside him.“You—” he sputtered, seething so hard he could barely spit the words out.For a moment, he seemed torn.As the wealthy heir to the K

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
Chapter 248
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
