The Almighty Dominance Chapter 38
Jasmine was inside the limousine when the thugs stopped her car.A group of them rushed out, attacking the vehicle brutally.The driver locked the doors in fear, frantically calling for help.She had already started to think she wouldn’t survive this time.But suddenly, the doctor who had treated her before appeared, coming to her rescue.Looking at the twenty scary men surrounding the doctor, Jasmine couldn’t believe he could save her.He would only get himself killed.Panic surged through her, and without thinking, she hastily opened the door, stepping out in front of Alex to protect him.“Stop it! I know you're here to kidnap me and demand money from my father!” she yelled.This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened.Being the daughter of Kingston came with dangerous risks.“Just take me and let this doctor go,” she pleaded. She couldn’t bear the thought of this kind, brave doctor dying because of her.The whole group of thugs, including their leader, stared at Jas

As they fought to escape, desperate to save their own lives, Alex calmly waved his hand.A sudden, crushing aura exploded from him, engulfing the fleeing thugs.It was as if gravity itself had multiplied.Their legs gave out. Muscles refused to respond.Some dropped to their knees instantly, gasping for breath, faces pale.The weaker ones couldn’t hold back, wetting themselves in terror.Suddenly, from up ahead, the sharp crack of gunfire rang out.Ten bullets were fired straight at Alex from a black SUV that had been lying in wait at very front.Six armed men rushed to back up their fallen leader, and without hesitation, they opened fire, their mission clear—kill Alex.The thugs on the ground thought for sure Alex would be taken down.But just as the bullets closed in, they stopped, hanging in mid-air just centimeters from his body, frozen in place as though the laws of physics no longer applied.The thugs gasped.What the hell was this?Before anyone could process what had happened,

“I wanted to do it alone.” Jasmine replied“Then why not tell your father? He would’ve allowed it—with a team of bodyguards.”Jasmine shook her head.“He told me to rest because of my illness. I’ve told him a hundred times that I’m already cured, but he won’t believe it.”Alex gazed at Jasmine, captivated by her flawless complexion and radiant beauty.Her long, flowing hair framed her face, giving her an ethereal, angelic presence.Yet, behind that beauty, he glimpsed a fierce, untamed spirit flickering in her eyes.She found the courage to rebel in the most unexpected place."Next time, if you're planning to go in a place like this, try wearing something modest—something that won't draw attention," Alex suggested."I've definitely learned a lot from this experience," Jasmine replied cheerfully."You'd better!"“Alex, will you come to my banquet tonight?” she asked hopefully.“Let’s see,” Alex responded, glancing outside with little interest.Jasmine’s eyes lingered on his side profil

Chris Roland was seated at the dining table with the entire Lancaster family when Amelia, Sophia's grandmother, walked into the dining room.Her eyes lit up as soon as she spotted him."Chris Roland, how is your father, Jerry, doing?" she asked warmly."He's doing great, thanks for asking," Chris replied with a smile."I heard your father not only helped us secure three invitations to the Kingston banquet but also sent a gift to Sophia. I haven't had the chance to thank him personally," Amelia said, somewhat coyly."It's all right," Chris responded. "He's been very busy.""No," Lady Lancaster interjected firmly."It's impolite not to thank him directly. We have our manners to uphold. Please video call your father. I want to thank him personally, and Sophia should as well.""All right," Chris agreed, pulling out his phone and connecting the call to the large screen in the dining room so everyone could see.Jerry's face soon appeared, set against the backdrop of a hotel room."Father,"

Lady Lancaster shifted in her seat. "Let us think about it first.""Remember," Jerry pressed, "the banquet is tonight, so you’ll need to make a quick decision. And since you’ve already said Chris will marry Sophia, if you give me the money today, I’ll give tell Chris to give BioHealth Solutions to Sophia."The room fell into a stunned silence.The Lancasters were shocked—Chris’s company was significantly larger than their own business."Why?" Lady Lancaster asked, her voice shaking with both greed and disbelief."I’m in Los Angeles right now for the new Elegance & Co. branches," Jerry lied, "and I’ll need Chris’s help to build a new BioHealth company here.”“Since he’s my only son, who better to manage our company in Vancouver than his wife?"Sophia’s mother, Florence, leaned in eagerly. "Mother-in-law, this is a great opportunity for us."Meanwhile, Jerry was already calculating his next move, planning to take out every loan he could under BioHealth Solutions todays and dump the fina

Sophia felt a sinking sensation, as if she were being asked to betray her grandfather.Suddenly, Mrs. Lancaster interrupted sharply."Sophia, you need to ask that loser for the $100 million back. We need that money to secure Lancaster's future with Kingston.""$100 million?" Sophia's confusion deepened."Word is, you handed that nobody $100 million just for not sleeping with you!" Mrs. Lancaster sneered, her voice dripping with contempt.All eyes in the room snapped to Sophia.Lyra, her voice rising with fury, demanded, "You gave that loser $100 million?!""No!" Sophia quickly defended herself, knowing there had to be some mistake."He was just boasting again. I only gave him $100,000 for accommodation for not seeping here. Where would I even get $100 million?"But Lyra wasn't buying it.She snatched Sophia's phone aggressively. "Let's call him and demand the money back.""But..." Sophia stammered, her voice shaky."No buts. You're divorcing him tonight! Why leave any money with him n

Lyra's voice shook with anger as she said, "Yesterday, you claimed the invitation card and the jewelry were from you. And now you're saying that BioHealth Solutions—a company that's been profitable every day and has a long history as one of the best in Vancouver—is going bankrupt."She laughed bitterly."Really? You're going to such lengths to blame Chris! I have to admit, you're consistent."Alex's expression turned cold as he looked at them through the screen of his phone."Kingston will cut ties with BioHealth. It'll become a worthless company," he said flatly."Cut off by the Kingston family?""A useless company?"One by one, disbelief spread through the room."Nonsense, all of it is nonsense. How could Kingston cut a decade-long collaboration while my father is in Los Angeles opening a new Kingston branch?" Chris asked sharply."Alex," Jack called out, "everyone except you knows that BioHealth is doing well—even better than our Lancaster company. I suggest you keep quiet before C

"Alex, these are the divorce papers Sophia prepared. All you need to do is sign them," Lyra said, placing the documents on the café table."Where is Sophia?" Alex asked, his eyes fixed on Lyra.Despite her undeniable beauty, every word she spoke dripped with venom."She's busy transferring money. Listen, Alex," Lyra leaned in, her voice icy."While I'm still being civil, just sign the papers. End this. You can't keep scamming her. For God's sake, let her go!"Alex sighed. His only reason for marrying Sophia was to find clues about his mother and to honor his master's wish."If she wants a divorce, she should tell me herself," he replied calmly.Lyra shook her head. "I know you're not happy about this, but just accept it. You're not right for her. Don't make this harder—just sign the papers."He crossed his arms, sensing her disdain.Maybe she didn't just hate him; maybe she despised all men without wealth."Alex, stop dragging this out!""You can yell all you want, but I need to hear

The clang of metal against concrete shattered the silence, and the heavy door groaned open.A harsh overhead light snapped on, searing Alex’s and Sophia’s eyes until they squeezed them shut.Their hearts thumped in the stale, suffocating darkness, though Alex wore a calm look that bordered on nonchalance.A broad-shouldered man lumbered in, sporting a gut that looked like it belonged in a beer commercial.He dropped onto a rickety chair beside the table, flipped a switch on the lamp, and leaned in with a smirk that made Sophia’s stomach knot.“Pfft. So you’re Alex,” he drawled, voice dripping with contempt.Alex kept his gaze steady, adjusting to the glare. “Yeah. I’m Alex. Nice to meet you, I guess.”The man’s smirk widened. “You have any idea who I am?”Sophia met his stare but didn’t speak.Alex simply shrugged. “Beats me.”The big man made a show of puffing up his chest. “Name’s Bernard. Folks around here call me ‘The Vampire.’ Not that I’m a bloodsucker by choice—I just do what n

Alex glared at them all, his patience long gone. “Next time, I’ll just watch while they hack off your damned hand,” he snapped, turning away from the group.Sophia squared her shoulders and stepped closer, voice cold and unwavering.“You think you’re such hot stuff, don’t you? Don’t let a little backing from Jasmine Kingston make you stupid. I’m telling you to think before you throw your weight around.”She raised an eyebrow, her tone dripping with condescension.“Face it, Alex. It’s one thing to have powerful friends pave your way, but it’s another to actually have the chops to keep climbing. Don’t trick yourself into believing you’re invincible. Let this be my final warning.”Alex rolled his eyes, letting out a derisive chuckle. “You talk like you’re some holy saint who’s got it all figured out. You’re so sure I’m just mooching off the powerful?”“Oh, spare me the act,” Sophia shot back, spitting the words like venom.“If Jasmine Kingston hadn’t put her name on the line, Viper would

Alex strode down the corridor leading to the VIP room, but he didn’t need to look over his shoulder to sense it.The tension.The ring of bodyguards fanning out behind the walls, posted at every exit and window.With a quick mental sweep, he detected their martial auras, each one bristling with skill far beyond the average rent-a-thug.So Raymond’s rolling out the red carpet, huh? he mused, lips twisting into a wry grin.No matter. He pushed the door open and stepped inside.“Raymond,” he said, skipping pleasantries, “you told me you’d secured a five-hundred-year-old Wild American Ginseng. I’m here for it. Where is it?”Raymond Wellington—dressed sharp in a tailored suit—lounged on the plush armchair like he was king of the world.“So impatient,” he teased, clapping his hands once.A bodyguard slipped in, carrying a polished wooden box.Raymond took his time setting it on the table between them, sliding the lid open slowly—almost theatrically.Inside lay a dark-yellow root, no bigger

Viper’s ragged breath filled the silence. His eyes stayed locked on Alex, hate and grudging respect mingling in his stare.“Fine, kid,” he muttered at last, swallowing his pride. “We’ll call it quits. You let me go, I let all of you walk out alive.”The punk in white gaped at him. “B-but, Big Bro—”Viper rounded on him, snapping, “Shut your mouth! I don’t need a backseat driver right now.”Alex watched him a moment longer, then slowly loosened his grip.The jagged glass came away from Viper’s throat, leaving a thin line of blood behind.The whole bar practically exhaled in relief.Even the punk in white flinched and pulled his knife away from Jack’s neck, shoving the idiot forward.Jack went flying into Sophia, who just barely kept him from hitting the floor.Florence rushed over, fussing like a mother hen that forgot she’d been insulting Alex five seconds ago.Viper rolled his shoulders, rubbing at the red streak on his neck.“You’ve got more nerve than most losers who show their fac

“Who the hell does this asshole think he is, going up against Sir Viper?” A wave of chatter rippled through the crowd:“Dude’s suicidal…”“Balls of steel, though. Nobody messes with Viper and lives.”“If it’d been me, I’d have chucked that bottle and sprinted the hell outta here, not strolled in like some badass.”Sophia stared at Alex, stunned.She hadn’t expected to see him here—much less launching beer bottles at Vancouver’s most notorious underworld boss.“Wh-what are you doing?” she whispered, half in awe, half in terror.Viper stepped forward, radiating pure menace. “And just who the hell are you, smartass? Think you can waltz in and break my men’s heads, then tell me to call it quits?”Alex merely flicked his gaze over Viper’s bloody henchmen.“My name doesn’t matter. For your own good, I’m telling you to walk away while you still can.”His tone was calm, almost bored—as if he was talking about the weather.The veins in Viper’s neck bulged.“Walk away? Did you just say ‘walk

Heads whipped around at the sudden commotion to reveal a tall man swaggering into the bar like he owned every inch of it.A ragged scar cut across his cheek, and a half-smoked cigar jutted from the corner of his mouth.He had one arm draped possessively around a voluptuous brunette, while the other hand hovered near his hip—exactly where a holstered pistol might be.The crowd in Paradiso parted like they were avoiding a contagious plague.Even Charles felt a spike of dread sink into his gut.“Big Bro, you made it!” The young man in white hurried over, relief etched on his face.“Got ourselves a little situation here. These jackasses want you—of all people—to kneel and apologize.” He practically spat the last word.Viper gave Charles a flat, indifferent stare. “So you’re the genius demanding I apologize, huh?”Charles, never one to swallow his pride, jutted his chin defiantly. “Your goons messed with one of my men. Don’t you think you owe him a little regret—and compensation?”Viper ra

“You think you scare me just ‘cause you are challenging me to a fight to the death? I might be old, but I’m not afraid to risk my life with the likes of you.”Her bold words completely clashed with the way she stumbled backward, nearly tripping over her own feet.If anyone bothered looking, they’d notice how badly her hands were shaking.Sophia, trying to defuse the tension, raised her palms.“Look, there’s no need to blow this out of proportion. Can we at least talk this through and figure out what happened before limbs start flying?”The man in white cocked an eyebrow and gestured at Jack like he was pointing at a piece of trash.“Why don’t you ask that genius what happened? He strolled in, grabbed my woman like a drooling dog, and threw punches at my men when they told him to back off.”“That’s more than enough reason to hand him a lesson. Now you show up like a pack of chihuahuas, yapping about calling more people to bust up my bar?”Sophia’s gaze swung to Jack. The idiot was stil

“Alex, what the hell’s wrong with you? So you saved the old man—good for you. That doesn’t mean you get to treat us like garbage!” Florence spat, practically shaking with rage.She glanced at Sophia, her eyes flashing with worry.If Alex dares to talk to my daughter like this, how long before he’s stepping on my entire family?“You think we’re all beneath you now just ’cause Grandpa owes you his life?”Alex answered with a dismissive snort. “At least I did something. All of you just stood around twiddling your thumbs while he was halfway to the grave. That’s on you. Maybe try having some shame next time.”Florence’s face turned an unpleasant shade of purple. “You… You ungrateful little— Don’t go thinking you’re suddenly this big shot! You’re still nobody compared to our family.”Before the shouting match could ramp up into fists flying, Abraham’s gravelly voice cut through like a razor.“Enough! Both of you, shut it. You’re making fools of yourselves. Florence, take the others and get

One of the Lancaster cronies hissed under his breath, “Hold up. Shouldn’t Dr. Owens be taking Alex’s head off? Why is he playing Whac-A-Mole with Vincent?”“You flaming halfwit! You dare use my name to inflate your puny ego? To con people who don’t know better? I’ll make sure you regret the day you learned to speak!”Dr. Owens only roared louder, launching a kick at Vincent that connected with a thud.Vincent sprawled like roadkill, blood streaming from his cracked lips.That smug grin he’d worn earlier? Now just a grotesque mask of pain and shame. Any bravado he had was beaten out of him in record time.Jonathan Owens turned, meeting Alex’s steady gaze.He could practically feel his own heart punching the inside of his ribcage. This was the man who had once saved his life, the person he’d spent years trying to find.And thanks to that useless pretender, he’d almost missed the chance to repay the biggest debt of his career—no, of his entire existence.Still shaken, Sophia ventured, “
