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

    Alex sat at a café table, his mind drifting as fragments of his memory began to unravel.He couldn't quite recall his mother's face, but he remembered this medallion she had given him."Alex, if you ever get lost, use this medallion to find your way home." Her voice had been urgent, full of warning.He remembered her telling him to hide, someone was chasing them. But who? He couldn't piece it together.The next memory was of him waking up at the orphanage, the medallion already gone from his possession.These must have been his memories before he ended up there.Touching the cold surface of the medal, Alex knew he had to track it down to find his mother and reclaim his past.Suddenly his phone rang."Alex," Jasmine's voice was soft but tense."Yes?""Can you help me by accompanying me to my banquet?"Alex wanted to refuse, but he remembered his promise to Abraham—to ensure the Kingston partnership was handed over to the Lancasters, even though Sophia had divorced him.His mission to f

    The attacker raised his hand, his voice venomous as he growled, “Then meet your mother in hell!”His hand swung down, aiming for Kelly.Before the strike could land, a blade drove through his back, its tip tearing through his heart and emerging from his chest.Blood stained the air as the attacker froze, his eyes wide with disbelief.“Impossible…” he gasped, trembling.A man of his caliber—level 115—was nearly invincible.Those below level 100 were like kindergarten children facing a trained soldier.No one could stand against him.From behind him, a raspy voice carried a chilling edge. “I’ve been waiting for this moment.”The attacker turned his head with a strained effort and saw the source of the voice.“You…” he stammered, recognition and horror flashing in his eyes.The old man standing there should have been a mere ghost of a memory.Yet here he was.The attacker’s gaze shifted to the blade now lodged in his chest—the very same poisoned knife Kelly had wielded earlier.Somehow,

    Alex did the math in his head one last time.If he didn’t act now, he’d lose his only shot at surviving. With a firm tug, he deployed the backup parachute.Overhead, his pursuer fumbled.Clearly, the enemy hadn’t expected a second chute.Stuck in freefall with no way to close the distance, the attacker could only glare, fury scorching his gaze, as Alex floated safely to the ground.If Alex had used the reserve chute too soon, the bastard might’ve swooped in for another strike.Now, all the enemy could do was watch, fists balled tight and rage contained only by the desperate need to stop the poison creeping from his right arm’s wound.Alex’s feet hit the earth with a thud, knees nearly buckling in relief.The wet soil clung to his boots.He bit down on a bitter healing pill, the burn of it fierce against his throat, and fired up his communicator.“Move out!” he rasped, voice raw with adrenaline. “Head for the nearest Kingswell station. Don’t bunch up! We can’t handle that monster toget

    The man in the attacking plane sneered as he watched people start jumping out of the aircraft."Want to run away? Not so easy!"He stopped firing at the already doomed plane and shifted his focus.The aircraft’s guns roared to life, now aimed at the people who were falling from the sky.Bullets whizzed through the air, narrowly missing the parachuting figures of Kingswell’s crew.The wind howled through the silence of freefall, and a few unlucky souls weren’t quick enough.One man yelped as a bullet tore through his hand, while another fell silent, his chest ripped open by a deadly shot.Meanwhile, the Kingswell plane, still in descent, had gained altitude and looped back around, coming up behind the attacking plane."For the final strike," Alex smiled as he fired off every bullet and rocket the Kingswell plane had left.But the military-grade plane was built to withstand such attacks.Its body was reinforced with solid armor and a shield system that absorbed the impacts.“You can dod

    A helicopter touched down on the airport runway, where a sleek private jet waited with its engines softly humming.As the rotors slowed, Kelly Kingston led Alex across the tarmac.Her posture was poised, her gaze focused.“The old man’s already inside,” Kelly said, her tone calm yet purposeful.Around the jet, Kingswell personnel snapped to attention, saluting Alex.One young recruit, stared in awe, still grappling with rumors that Alex was an elite figure in the organization—handpicked by the King himself.And there stood Kelly, the so-called “Cold Goddess of Kingswell.”Her brilliance and beauty wer the stuff of legends, making her the dream of many men.The young recruit wasn’t immune—his secret stash of Kelly’s photographs, carefully clipped from online newspapers and magazines, was proof enough.And he wasn’t the only one.Inside the jet, Alex found the old man resting on a makeshift hospital bed.Although the man’s face was peaceful, Alex knew the stillness belied his true condi

    Kelly Kingston stood confidently on the table, her piercing gaze fixed on Sophia and Lyra.She was once the most famous person in Vancouver.Though she was not a model, everyone knew she could have easily been one of the top if she had chosen that path.Instead, Kelly was celebrated as the most brilliant woman in Vancouver’s history.At just 17 years old, she graduated from the most prestigious university in the city and caught the attention of Alfred Kingston.Alfred adopted Kelly and brought her into the Kingston Enterprise at a young age.Though not formally part of the direct family line, her association with Alfred made her a cousin to Jasmine in the public eye.When Kelly joined Kingston Enterprise, newspapers couldn’t stop raving about her brilliance and hailed her as a prodigy in her field.Everyone knew she was one of Alfred Kingston’s most trusted confidants.“Miss Kelly,” Sophia quickly stood up, her voice tinged with both surprise and respect. “What brings you here?”“I ne

    Sophia frowned. “Are you serious, Lyra? This isn’t like you at all.”“Actually,” Lyra replied, leaning back in her chair with a lazy smile, “I’ve never been more serious in my entire life.”She locked eyes with Sophia. “Let’s face it: we won’t stay young forever. We need a place—and someone—that makes us feel safe when life catches up with us.”She sighed, a wistful look passing over her features.“I’ve always pictured having a perfect little family, you know? A handsome son, a beautiful daughter… raising them to succeed. Then I could leave this world in peace.”Sophia’s eyebrows shot up. “But you used to say you wanted tons of money so you could ‘buy’ any man you wanted!”Lyra’s expression darkened briefly. “We all had wild dreams when we were younger. People change, Sophia. And now I’ve met my soulmate. I want something real.”“Alex?” Sophia repeated skeptically. “He’s your soulmate? You’ve always said that money was your one true soulmate.”“I have to agree with Sophia on this one,

    “Marry you?” Alex’s eyebrow arched sharply, his frown deepening.The number of women wanting to marry him could fill a line so long, it’d make the biggest encyclopedia look tiny in comparison.“Do you even love me?” Alex asked, his tone flat.“I love money—and especially your money,” Lyra replied, straight-faced.“You know, in the end, women always have to make a choice: marry the man they love or marry the man who loves them and learn to love him later.”Lyra shrugged, her expression unapologetic.“I can let you stay around me, love me, and pamper me. Just like you did with Sophia. Your love is so... unattached. I’d even give you the honor of loving me.”“Has anyone ever told you that you have an unbelievably thick face?” Alex said, his tone laced with incredulity.‘This woman is sometimes fugitive, deceptive, sharp, ravenous, fierce, and cruel; she also possesses a great spirit.’Lyra’s lips curled into a teasing smile, her gaze unflinching.“With all the layers of makeup I wear, I’

    That morning, the Lancaster mansion was anything but peaceful.In the grand living room, Florance stood in front of Justin, practically shaking with anger.“You’re worthless as a father!” she shouted. “All you do is sit around watching garbage on TV!”Justin frowned, more irritated than surprised. “What do you want from me?”“How about acting like a dad for once? Our daughter is in trouble over that massive loan. You need to help figure out a solution!” Florance’s frustration bled through her every word.Justin let out a tired sigh. “And what exactly do you expect me to do?”“Look at the bigger picture! Your brother is already waiting for Sophia to fail so he can give Mike her position in the company. We can’t let that happen!”Rolling his eyes, Justin scrolled aimlessly on his phone. “I don’t have that kind of money, and you know it.”Florance glared at him. “You’re good for nothing except your so-called manhood!”“Fine!” Justin snapped. “What do you want me to do?”“Marco Ashford,”

    Sophia picked up the menu and glanced over at Lyra, her mind spinning with confusion.There was Lyra, practically leaning against Alex, an intimacy that would make any observer assume they were the married couple, not her and Alex.“Alex, I bet this is your first time here,” Lyra said brightly.“Sophia and I have VIP status at this place. Let me recommend a few dishes—I’m sure you’ll love them.”Alex managed a polite smile. “Thanks.”Lyra beamed, flipping through the menu. “Order whatever you like. Don’t worry about the bill, I’m covering it tonight.”Sophia nearly choked.Lyra—stingy, penny-pinching Lyra—offering to pay? For a man, of all people?Lyra never spent her money on men.Every luxury in her possession was typically gifted by them.This was the first time Lyra had ever offered to foot the bill for a man.Sophia narrowed her eyes. “Lyra… are you feeling alright? Did you forget to take your meds this morning?”Lyra raised a cool eyebrow. “What’s with the shock, Sophia? I’ve al
