The woman who shouted was none other than Shantal. Arrogantly, Shantal walked, "What are you doing here?" she asked in a condescending tone."I am here to—" before Max could finish his sentence, Shantal interrupted, "Oh, you're here to apply. Are you applying for a security guard position or a janitor?"'This woman thinks differently,' Max thought to himself. "No," Max said.Shantal grinned, "Besides these positions, are there any other positions that would suit you?" she said, sounding belittling.Max was getting tired of arguing and just wanted to go inside to get the contract. As he took a step, Shantal arrogantly stepped in front of him, "Are you deaf or just stupid? I'm asking you," she said irritably."What concern is it of yours what I do here?" Max asked coolly.Shantal paused briefly before laughing, "Hey, do you see yourself in the mirror? You're just casually entering Crownguard Group.

"Vivian, I know you are a good friend of my wife, so as a gift, I hope you don't take offense at the position assigned to you. Don't worry, this position is based on your abilities and you are qualified for it," Max said casually. "And don't tell anyone who I really am," he added."Why don't you want to tell Alexa that you are the chairman of Crownguard Group?" Vivian asked curiously after recovering."It's not the right time yet, and it's a long story," Max said before taking another sip of tea, "but I hope Vivian will keep this secret," he said with a smile.Vivian couldn't make sense of what was happening, but she simply nodded. Max smiled before gesturing that he could leave.Vivian left the room, still unable to digest the truth in front of her.

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
