Alexa let out a sigh before ending the call."What's the matter?" Max asked upon seeing Alexa's frowning face.Alexa sighed again, "Tomorrow, Mom's sister is coming to visit.""Oh, what's the issue if they come?" Max inquired."If you don't know, her sister can be quite competitive, and even her two kids too. I just don't know what they'll say tomorrow," Alexa said helplessly.Max smiled, "Let's just see what happens tomorrow," before standing up, taking Alexa's hand, walking towards the car, and driving home. .......The next day, Alicia was seen sitting in an expensive restaurant, in front of her were four people. Alicia glanced at her watch impatiently, wondering what time it was as Alexa had not yet arrived.At that moment, the restaurant door opened, and Alexa walked in. Alicia smiled as soon as she saw her daughter, but her expression quickly soured upon seeing Max enter as well.Alicia approached her daughter, "Alexa, why did you bring Max here?" she asked with irritation."M

The insurance company arrived within minutes and promptly towed the car back to the repair shop.While walking down the street, Max seemed to have a thought. He thought it would take a while for the car to be fixed. He didn't want Alexa to hail a taxi because his wife was a celebrity, and anything could happen in his absence. So, he thought of buying a car as a gift for her since th
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Useless Husband
In this moment, as Jane went to pay for the car, they saw a man in his 20s descending the stairs. Ella smiled immediately and walked towards the man before promptly reporting what had happened."Manager Cloud, Jane let a man enter the BMW M4 2024, but this man seems poor and incapable of buying a car, even the cheapest one in our store. However, Jane really let him play inside the car and take a picture," Ella said, trying to provoke Cloud.Cloud scowled before looking at the sports car and immediately froze when his gaze fell on Max. Max smiled as soon as he saw the man; naturally, they knew each other.Cloud approached Max as soon as he recognized him, and Ella thought their manager got angry upon seeing Max's appearance. 'Jane, Jane, you're in trouble now! Let's see if Manager Cloud doesn't kick you out for what you did,' she thought before following Cloud.Cloud approached with a smile to greet Max, but before he could get closer, Jane quickly intervened. "Manager Cloud, this man
The Enigmatic Son-in-law The danger is approaching
As the evening grew near and it was time for Alexa to go home, she suddenly found herself touching her forehead and remembering; she recalled that she had her car repaired. Alexa walked out, ready to hail a taxi, when a car stopped in front of her. Upon recognizing the vehicle, Alexa frowned, as she knew who was inside."Alexa, my girl, where's your car?" the man in the driver's seat asked as he rolled down the window and stuck his head out."I'm waiting for my husband," Alexa casually replied, paying no mind."Oh, is he going to pick you up on an Electric Bike?" the man taunted.Alexa remained silent and ignored him."I thought you were going to leave him for me?" the man smirked. After Alexa remained silent, he felt she was embarrassed after hearing his words."I will never leave my husband, so stop spreading fake news. Don't worry, after this movie, we plan to have a baby," Alexa said with a smile, placing her hand on her stomach.The man grinned, "How will he support you if you st
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Another Fool Disturbing My Meal
When Max and Alexa returned home, Alicia saw the new sports car that Max was driving, and she immediately approached and asked, "Alexa, is this your new car? How much does it cost?" She inquired as she inspected the car carefully to avoid any scratches. "Nine million," replied Alexa, without any hesitation. "Nine million!" Alicia exclaimed in surprise. "Did you buy it? Why did you purchase such an expensive car?!" Alexa shook her head. "Max gave it to me as a gift because my car broke down." "What? A gift from your useless husband?" Alicia had a skeptical look on her face. "Mom, you can't play around with this car, I know what you're thinking. You can take pictures and get in, but you can't drive it. Remember, this car is not cheap," Alexa reminded her, knowing her mother's tendencies. Alicia waved her hand dismissively. "No, this car is not too expensive. I won't be able to pay for it if I damage it." "I'm just saying," Alexa said before going inside the house without further e
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Something was terribly wrong
Max kicked the man even before his punch could land. The man with red hair flew across the table, surprising the bald man with what just happened.He never expected the young man in front of him to have the guts to kick his companion like that. Max walked towards the man with red hair before grabbing him by the neck with one hand. "Will you eat the spilled food now or not?" he asked.The man with red hair's eyes widened in fear, unable to explain the terrifying feeling he had after looking into Max's eyes. "I'll eat, I'll eat," he said, fear evident in his voice.Max let go, and the man collapsed to the ground. The man crawled towards the spilled food and immediately started eating as if he were a hungry dog."What are you doing?" The bald man asked, but he was ignored by the red-haired man. He looked at Max, "What did you do to my companion?!" He asked angrily.Max turned to him, "Perhaps you'd like to help your companion finish the spilled food?""Phooey!" spat the bald man on the g

The leader of the men approached Alexa, it was evident that she was the target of these people.Alexa noticed that she was the target because they only approached her and looked at her. Immediately, she took out her phone and dialed Max's number. As soon as she dialed the number, the man disappeared from her sight, and the next thing she knew, her eyes darkened, and she lost consciousness. Her phone fell to the ground, ringing in the area........Max just boarded a taxi and immediately headed to Chable Star, with a lingering sense that something had happened to his wife, but he couldn't think of anyone who would do such a thing. "Please drive to Chable Star," Max said calmly.The taxi driver shivered at the cold tone in Max's voice, so he didn't look back or ask questions, he just accelerated the taxi.Upon reaching Chable Star, Max quickly got out of the taxi and entered t
The Enigmatic Son-in-law The Living Legend
Max flew the helicopter towards the suburbs, and from a distance, he could already see the warehouse where Alexa was being held. As he approached, Max felt a dark energy emanating from the warehouse. 'Six? Six with dark energy... Just like the person at the Santos' house. But on the CCTV, there were only five of them. One must be stronger than the rest, perhaps the leader. Well, it doesn't matter; all of you who laid a hand on my wife will surely perish,' Max thought angrily before searching for a safe landing spot for the helicopter to avoid startling the snakes.A few kilometers away from the warehouse, Max found an empty plot of land and landed the helicopter. The distance was no issue for Max's current speed and strength. After parking the helicopter, Max quickly headed towards the warehouse.Max ran faster than a sports car at its peak speed. In the blink of an eye, Max arrived at the front of the warehouse, clenched his fist, exuding his anger. The temperature around him began t

It was Max
The room fell silent, with everyone still tense from Blake's earlier words. The elderly man looked around at their expressions and suddenly chuckled, his laughter echoing in the stillness. "Why do you all look so nervous?" he asked, his tone teasing. "Am I so scary now?"The tension broke momentarily, replaced by a few awkward smiles, but Blake waved them off as he adjusted himself in his chair. "Relax, all of you. I'm an old man now, and all I want is to live the rest of my life in peace."He turned his gaze to Alexa and Max, his smile softening. "And it seems like you two are doing well together," he said warmly.Alexa smiled back and spoke, her voice filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Grandpa. Honestly, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met Max."Max nodded in agreement and added, "You've given me a gift I'll always cherish. Thank you, sir."Blake laughed heartily, clearly pleased. "Good, good," he said, but before he could continue, Lily interrupted, her voice sharp and laced
Blake Collins
A few moments later, more members of the Collins family entered the conference room, taking their seats at the long table. Among them were Leo Collins, Anderson's son, and Lily Collins, Darwin's daughter. The two younger members of the family sat beside Anderson, their expressions mirroring the smug confidence of their fathers.Anderson glanced at his watch before turning to Leo. "Where is Dad?"Leo responded politely, "He's on his way down, Dad." Then, his eyes swept across the room, and he asked, "Uncle Blaine isn't here yet?"Darwin smirked, leaning back in his chair. "Of course not. VIPs are always late, aren't they?"Leo chuckled, his tone laced with sarcasm. "I suppose so." Then, with a sly grin, he added, "I saw online that Alexa's ratings are soaring. She's trending again."Lily rolled her eyes dramatically. "Well, good for her, I guess. That just means her worthless husband gets to live in luxury. Alexa's money, his comfort. Must be nice."Leo laughed, his voice dripping with
Death Sentence
Max noticed Alexa's hesitation and asked gently, "What's going on?"Alexa sighed, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "Uncle called to say Grandpa's calling for a family gathering. He said it's important. They tried calling Dad, but he wasn't answering, so Uncle called me instead."Max nodded and stood. "Alright, let's go."Alexa nodded as well and got up to prepare herself. After a few minutes, she emerged from their bedroom wearing an elegant silver dress, paired with a designer silver handbag. Her hair was tied neatly in a bun, exuding sophistication. Max stepped out shortly after, dressed in his usual casual and simple attire.Alexa smiled, knowing full well that her husband preferred to stay lowkey despite his status. They opted to use Alexa's car, as Max's vehicle tended to draw too much attention. Max took the driver's seat, and before starting the car, Alexa said, "Let's stop by our old house first to pick up Dad and Mom."Max nodded and started driving.Upon arriving at
Uncle?
A few days had passed since the kidnapping incident. It was Sunday, a day of rest, and Max and Alexa sat in their luxurious villa, enjoying breakfast together. Max took a sip of his coffee and asked, "How's work going for you as an actress?"Alexa smiled as she placed a slice of toast on her plate. "It's going well. My ratings and popularity keep climbing," she said cheerfully. "I've achieved most of my dreams, so maybe after this upcoming movie, I'll aim to be an ambassador or focus on something more meaningful."Max nodded approvingly. "That's good to hear. It suits you."Alexa tilted her head thoughtfully, and a memory sparked in her mind. She set down her fork and looked at Max with curiosity. "Wait... Chable Star is under the Crownguard Group, right?"Max glanced at her with a knowing smile but said nothing.Her eyes widened. "So, it was you all along! I remember getting that email about the project offer, and now it makes sense why you were so confident I'd get the role. You're
Dark Hood Organization
Max let out a deep sigh before nodding quietly. Alexa's face was a mix of shock and disbelief. She took a step back, her voice trembling as she asked, "Why… why did you hide this from me?"Max looked into her eyes, his tone calm but heavy with regret. "I just wanted to live a peaceful life, Alexa. I never intended to deceive you or hide anything from you," he said. "You know this marriage was arranged by your grandfather."At that, Alexa's expression hardened. She interrupted, "Then why didn't you refuse? Our family is just second-class compared to someone like you. You're… you're someone so much greater."Max sighed again, his gaze softening as he explained, "Your grandfather helped me in the past. He showed me kindness when no one else did. Marrying you was my way of repaying that debt.""That's not enough," Alexa said, shaking her head. Her voice was firm, tinged with frustration. "There has to be more. Is there another reason you kept all of this from me?"Max opened his mouth to
Who are you?
The leader's voice shook as he raised his weapon and barked at Max, "Don't come any closer!"Max didn't even flinch, taking another deliberate step forward. The leader's breath hitched, his body trembling as he realized that even in his strongest state, he couldn't hope to defeat Max. His mind raced, desperate for a plan.Then his eyes darted to Alexa, who was still frozen in shock, her gaze fixed on Max. Thoughts swirled in her mind: Could it have been Max all along? The one who saved me from Mr. Chen and every danger I've faced?Her thoughts were interrupted by a cold, metallic sensation against her temple.The leader had moved with desperation, grabbing Alexa and pressing a gun to her head. His face was pale but defiant as he stared at Max. "Don't move! If you take another step, I'll kill her!"Alexa stiffened in terror, her heart pounding as the cold metal dug into her skin.Max's face darkened, his eyes narrowing. His voice dropped to a low, menacing tone. "You've made the worst
How should I play with you?
His hand fell lifelessly to the ground as his body went still, the life draining from his eyes.Nathan swallowed hard, his hands trembling as he barked out commands to his men. "Move! Now!" he shouted, his voice wavering.The mercenaries immediately raised their weapons, their faces now grim with tension as they took aim at Max. The room filled with an oppressive silence as Max scanned the area calmly, his piercing gaze finally landing on Nathan. Letting out a slow, measured breath, Max's expression turned icy.His eyes shifted to Alexa, who sat tied to the chair with a faint, hopeful smile despite the worry etched on her face. "Max," she whispered, her voice trembling. She didn't know what to say, overwhelmed by relief and fear. The sight of Max's calm demeanor against the dozen guns aimed at him made her heart race. She flinched when her cheek stung, a reminder of the slap she had endured.Max's gaze fell to the faint mark on Alexa's face, and his blood boiled. His jaw tightened as
I've Killed So-Called Immortals
Crownguard Group RooftopThe evening sky above Pampanga was clear, the faint hum of the city below contrasting with the tension that filled the rooftop. Leon stood with his arms crossed, his sharp gaze fixed on the horizon. Beside him, Alice furiously typed on her laptop, her eyes darting across multiple screens. Robert stood nearby, his posture stiff and his face etched with worry as they awaited Max's arrival.Leon broke the silence, his voice steady but laced with concern. "Robert, what exactly happened?"Robert straightened, speaking with a respectful tone. "President Leon, one of my men was assigned to guard Ms. Alexa when they were ambushed by martial artists. My men did their best, but they aren't full practitioners—they've only been trained in basic techniques Master Max taught them. They were outmatched."Leon nodded, digesting the information. His gaze shifted to Alice. "Alice, have you managed to trace Lady Alexa's location yet?"Alice didn't look up from her laptop, her fi
Weakling Hiding Behind Women
After the call, Max slipped his phone back into his pocket. The elder Altamirano approached him and asked, "Is something wrong?"Max nodded slightly. "I need to return to Pampanga immediately. There's an issue involving my wife."Without missing a beat, he turned to Cris and instructed, "Prepare a vehicle." Cris responded respectfully, but before he could leave, the elder Altamirano interrupted, "No need. I have a private jet you can use to get back to Pampanga quickly."Max didn't hesitate and accepted the offer with gratitude. The elder then ordered Job to escort Max and Cris to the jet, ensuring their swift departure. Job nodded respectfully and led the way, guiding Max and Cris out of the villa.The group boarded a golf cart and drove through a vast expanse of land behind the villa. Eventually, they reached a sleek private jet parked on a runway. The jet gleamed under the sunlight, a state-of-the-art Gulfstream G700, with a sleek silver-and-blue exterior, large windows, and engine
