A woman woke up with a pounding headache, her body feeling heavy and sluggish.
As she shifted slightly, she was shocked to find a naked stranger lying next to her.
WTF?!
She jolted awake, freezing in place.
Panic started to rise as she tried desperately to remember how she ended up in a stranger's bed.
Then, a terrifying realization hit her—she was naked and no longer a virgin.
Just then, the man stirred, his dark eyes fluttering open and locking onto hers.
“Wow, last night was incredible. Want to keep going?”
He sat up casually, completely at ease, his flawless body on full display.
He grabbed a bottle of water from the bedside table and offered it to her.
“Here, drink this. You must be thirsty. We can pick up where we left off if you’re up for it.”
Unable to contain her fear and anger any longer, the woman’s hand moved on its own, slapping him hard across the face.
“Who are you? How did I end up here? What have you done to me?”
The man, Alexander Leonhart, blinked, his cheek stinging from the slap.
He looked at the woman in front of him—a mesmerizing beauty with silky hair and a body that radiated perfection.
Her face was a storm of anger and panic, but her very presence made his desire stir once again.
“You!” The woman, Sophia Lancaster, screamed as she saw something rising on the man. “You better tell me who you are!”
“Calm down!” Alex stared at her.
“You ran to me and asked me to sleep with you. Don’t you remember?”
“Impossible,” Sophia denied, shaking her head vehemently.
It was impossible that she would chase after a man, especially a stranger.
“You must have done something to me!”
She felt the rough texture of the blanket against her bare skin.
Confusion and fear swirled in her mind as she looked around the room, her eyes darting frantically.
The man’s old military backpack and plain clothes caught her attention—nothing in this hotel room indicated wealth.
The smartphone on the nightstand was a cheap one with a cracked screen.
With one glance, Sophia realized the man she had slept with was far from wealthy, just an ordinary man who struggled daily to make ends meet.
"Watch your accusations," Alex said calmly.
"I'm a gentleman, and I would never force anyone. You were the one who came to me, hugged me, kissed me, and begged me to sleep with you."
Sophia’s eyes wide opened.
“Liar!”
“This is my hotel room. You can check the CCTV if you want—see if you came here or if I kidnapped you.”
Sophia didn’t believe a word the man was saying, but suddenly, a memory flashed before her eyes.
She was supposed to have a meeting with Calvin Lecter, the CEO of a rival company, to discuss the ongoing price war that was causing her business to suffer.
She had thought they were meeting to find a solution, but it turned out Calvin had nasty intentions from the start.
He had drugged her, hoping to take advantage of her.
She remembered managing to escape with the help of his bodyguard, but as she ran from them, she stumbled across a man opening a door.
Desperate, she had hoped to hide in his room for a while.
But the drug Calvin had given her was a potent aphrodisiac, which made her desires flare uncontrollably.
A sudden sharp headache hit Sophia as the memories flooded back.
"Oh no! How could this happen?"
"Do you remember now?" Alex smirked. "You were the one begging."
“Shut up!” Sophia’s face turned bright red with shame and fury.
Under the drug’s influence, everything had seemed to make sense at the time, but now, everything felt so wrong. “Damn it!”
“Listen, I’m a gentleman,” Alex offered sincerely, trying to make amends. “I took your virginity. I’ll marry you. How about that?”
Sophia scoffed, her disbelief mixing with disgust.
“You want to marry me? Do you even know who I am?”
She was one of the top beauties in Vancouver, with a rising career as a young CEO.
Wealthy men were something she’d never run out of, and yet here was this poor man, trying to use this situation to bind her with marriage.
He was clearly just another parasite, hoping to latch onto a wealthy woman like her and live off her success.
“Well, I just arrived in Vancouver this afternoon, so I don’t know anyone here yet,” Alex said earnestly.
“But I can assure you, you won’t need to worry about anything for the rest of your life if you marry me.”
Sophia scoffed again, her disdain clear.
“With your old military backpack? And those scars on your body? I guess you’re some low-rank soldier, just returned from a warzone. Your one month’s salary wouldn’t even cover my expenses for a single day.
And you dare ask to marry me?!”Sophia was furious!
How shameless this man was!
“Believe me,” Alex said, his voice low and firm, “I’m not what you think. I’m more powerful than any man you’ve ever met.”

Chapter 516
The advertisement detonated across Prussia like an explosion. In just few minutes, the entire nation fell into hysteria. Streets, bars, offices—every conversation circled back to one name.Phantom.The news and official advertisements spread rapidly across Prusia: Eden Group formally reopened the betting market—once again—on Phantom.This time, they didn’t just challenge the system. They insulted it.Eden Group publicly accepted a bet that Phantom would take first place in the third competition.If Phantom lost, Eden Group would pay one thousand times the wager.One thousand times.Nothing like this had ever happened.It meant that a fool who placed ten dollars would walk away with ten thousand if Phantom lost. A number so absurd it felt unreal. A promise so outrageous it shattered reason.People of every age flooded the online betting tables. Old men chasing one last win. Young workers risking their savings. Students, executives—no one held back. Greed smothered every trace of cautio
Chapter 515
Marlena’s eyes widened slightly. “We spent five hundred million dollars on advertising alone,” she said.“But the return was massive. With almost all of Prussia participating, we made no less than twenty billion this round.”Alex smiled faintly. “So after subtracting advertising costs and the Bluthelm acquisition, we’re still deep in profit.”“Exactly,” Marlena confirmed. “What about the third competition? If we open betting again with Phantom, we could earn several more billion.”Alex shook his head. “Phantom doesn’t have a driver.”“But you do, sir,” Marlena said carefully. “If you pilot it yourself, that would be a guaranteed win.”Alex chuckled. “Tempting. But no. It stops here.”He straightened, his tone turning cold and final. “We don’t need trouble with Eisenwall. That’s bad for business. Let Phantom lose. Bluthelm and Eden Group need to lie low for a while. That fits us perfectly.”“As you wish, sir,” Marlena said, bowing her head as Alex turned and walked out.When Alex retu

“The winner of the second competition final,” the commentator announced, his voice ringing through the arena, “Phantom, from the Bluthelm Company!”The stadium erupted—not in cheers, but in rage.“Boooo!”The sound crashed like a wave, loud and merciless. Thousands of voices joined as one, drowning the air with hatred.Inside the reunion room, every head turned at the same time.All eyes locked onto Tobias.“How could you build something this cunning?”“This is illegal. It has to be.”“You cheated.”His classmates shouted over one another, anger sharp in their voices. Accusations flew like knives.But Tobias barely heard them.He was staring at Alex. And Sofina.His throat tightened. His head buzzed.“Explain this,” Tobias demanded.Alex blinked, putting a hand to his chest as if truly shocked.“Explain what?” he said lightly. “That I let a cleaning-service robot pilot your Phantom and it still won the competition?”Tobias felt a headache slam into him, sudden and brutal.Before he co

No one in the stadium could believe what they were seeing. This had never happened before.What the Phantom was doing threatened to change the tournament forever.As the match began.Instead of charging forward like the other competitors—rushing to shoot targets and collect points—the Phantom moved sideways.It struck first.With a brutal kick, it smashed into the blue mobile suit on its right. Metal snapped. Both legs were destroyed in one blow, leaving the suit helpless and frozen in place.In the same motion, the Phantom twisted left. It seized the yellow mobile suit by the arms and swung it like a weapon.The force was savage.The yellow suit flew across the arena and slammed straight into the red mobile suit, destroying both in a violent collision.The crowd gasped.In just a few seconds, three competitors were already immobilized. Only seven mobile suits remained—including the Phantom.“Impossible,” the commentator shouted, voice cracking. “Destroying or immobilizing competitors

Sofina summoned Eve through her bracelet, then turned to Alex, concern flickering in her eyes.“Are you sure Eve can actually pilot a mobile suit?”Alex smiled faintly. “Sofina, let’s put it this way. Eve’s lifelong dream—as a humble service AI—has always been to drive a mobile suit in front of a massive crowd. She wants to feel big. Powerful. Why not let her climb into that cockpit and be happy for once?”Using a Phantom mobile suit to indulge a cleaning robot.The idea grew more ridiculous by the second.Tobias found it absurd—but as long as Alex was willing to throw away eight million dollars, he was more than happy to play along. He grinned broadly.“Then please,” he said mockingly, “enjoy your slow walk around the stadium.”Moments later, Eve descended fr

Renata glanced at Alex “Since we’re friends,” she said, “don’t you think it’s time you tell me what you actually put on the table?”Alex leaned back. “What do you want it to be?”“Something valuable,” Renata replied without hesitation. “A real diamond. Or anything worth millions.”Alex rolled his eyes. “You think making a million dollars is that easy?”He shrugged. “That stone? It’s just a colorful rock I found on the street and thought looked interesting. Well—not exactly the street, but close enough. I picked it up from an antique street peddle for 50 buck.”Belinda froze. She was the one who had bought the stone for a hundred thousand dollars.“What?” she snapped. “Fifty dollars? A colorful stone?” Her voice turned sharp and ugly. “Don’t you dare joke with me.”Alex looked genuinely surprised. “What? Is it wrong to gift a colorful stone? Didn’t you say the spirit of this class reunion auction was that people should give what they love, and everyone bids the most they can?”“What i
