“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 bloodshed

Metal 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

    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?

    "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

    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 ch

    "You're truly unruly, uneducated, and nothing more than a frog in a well, thinking you're so great!” Sophia scoffed with disdain. “That's why I despise talking to someone as lowly as you!" Alex chuckled, “Believe me, I am trying to be honest here.” "You? A powerful man?" she sneered, glaring at him with utter disgust. "You can't even begin to understand how powerful I am or the people I've encountered who are far more powerful than you. They could erase you with just a sneer." Alex laughed. "The powerful men you know might be the ones seeking my favor, pleading for me to marry their daughters just to stay in my good graces. Trust me, you're incredibly lucky to have crossed paths with me." What a braggart!Sophia rowed her eyes in disgust.She wanted nothing more than to throw something at his smug face. How shameless could he be, pretending to be so powerful when all he had was an old military backpack? "You might pretend not to know me and try to bind me with marriage just

    "Young Master, my only daughter was born sick, and now it's worse." Alfred's eyes filled with sorrow, "She's in pain every day. I've seen every doctor, spent a fortune, tried everything—nothing helps. She's only getting worse. Please, help her. I'll do anything."Alex gazed at him calmly. "I'll meet your daughter tomorrow." Alfred was stunned. He hadn’t expected His Highness would agree to lend a helping hand so easily.He grabbed Alex's hand, bowed in gratitude. "Thank you, my lord!" He whispered, his words heavy with all he felt. Previously, Alfred hadn’t believed his luck when his leader mentioned Alex's visit to Vancouver. Albert wasn’t entirely sure who Alex was. However, what he was certain was even his leader must kneel before Alex! If Alex’s was displeased, millions of lives could vanish. But if he was satisfied, even the dying could live! As the head of the Kingswell organization in Vancouver, Albert had heard the rumors. About a high-ranking figure known as "God

    As Alex approached the house entrance, Sophia noticed that Alex was behind her. "Haven’t you had enough?" "Believe me," Alex replied, "running into you is the last thing I wanted today." Sophia stepped out, blocking his path. "So, what is it then? Are you here to remind me of the biggest mistake of my life?" "Mistake?" Alex’s tone grew colder. "I could say the same. You think I enjoyed waking up and realizing I’d wasted my time with someone so shallow?" "Shallow?" Sophia’s eyes flashed with anger. "You’re just bitter because you know I’m right. You’re nothing but a loser, a gold-digger." Alex laughed, shaking his head. "You’re delusional. I don’t need anything from you, least of your money." Sophia stepped even closer, her finger jabbing the air between them. "Then what do you want? To ruin my life even more?" "No, I’m not here to ruin anything." Alex locked his eyes with hers. "I’m meeting my fiancée." "Your fiancée? You have a fiancée?" Sophia shocked. "I’m here to me

    "Old man, how can you marry off Sophia, our greatest beauty, to that poor man? Is your brain rotten or what?" Her anger grew. "My beautiful granddaughter can never marry a lowlife. She will marry Chris Roland! He’s wealthy and powerful, and can secure our family's future." "Chris Roland?" Abraham frowned. That hypocritical playboy?"Don’t you know Jerry Roland?" Lady Lancaster snapped. "He works for Alfred Kingston, who practically owns Vancouver. Chris is his only son. Marrying him ties our family to the Kingstons!" Sophia’s parents also looked at Alex, and a dissatisfied frown crept onto their faces. Alex wore a simple shirt typically seen on people of the lower-middle class, cheap and old shoes sold on the street, nothing about him screamed wealth. If Chris Roland was the young rich man with a company, this man was probably Chris’s cleaning service, paid with the lowest salary. Thinking their daughter would marry this loser already made their anger rise to the peak. “No w

    Alex shook his head and chuckled. He knew Sophia despised him."Sophia, let me show y—" He wanted to let Sophia see the real him a bit, but she turned her back to him and walked to the parking lot. A white four-seat Porsche Panamera pulled up and stopped in front of them. A stunning young woman stepped out of the car with effortless grace, her elegant dress and sparkling jewelry enhancing her high-fashion allure. "Sophia," she hugged Sophia."Lyra, thanks for coming," Sophia replied joyfully. "I came as soon as I could when I got your text." Lyra smiled while eyeing Alex from head to toe and shook her head. Not a single item of value detected from head to toe. Apart from being a bit handsome and having a somewhat fitting body, this man was totally worthless. When Sophia texted her and told her that she was forced to marry a loser and needed a helping hand, she had thought Sophia was exaggerating. But seeing Alex in person made her realize how unlucky Sophia was. Most of So

    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.
