The Indestructible Alexander Chapter 16
In the eerily stifling silence inside the general manager's office, people still couldn't believe what they had just heard. "Howard," Luster’s face a mask of disbelief, "I have worked for 31 years in this company. You cannot just fire me like this." "Did you try to poison Miss Sophia or not?" Howard asked. "No, I am not!" Luster yelled back, his eyes blazing with anger. "Everyone here knows I didn't harm Sophia. It was Alex who did it." "Right?" Luster turned to the workers, trying to intimidate them with his lingering power. "Lucas, Jack! Tell Mr. Howard that Alex was the culprit!" "Luster," Howard continued, unshaken, "Miss Sophia has recorded everything, and the police already have it." Four police officers entered the office and looked directly at Luster. "Luster, you are under arrest for your illegal actions towards Sophia." "I am not!" Luster tried to flee, but the police quickly tackled him, his face slamming against the floor once more. They handcuffed him swiftly and l

The Lucas, Peter and another senior manager named Liam entered the meeting room, trailed by a hushed atmosphere of pale faces and fearful glances from the other workers. "Stay safe in there." “We will collect your ash, later,” said the other workers as they know three of them will be fried by Alex as they insulted him so much in the past half year. The three top ranks faced Alex with fear etched on their faces; it tasted so bitter. “Do you know why I am calling you?” Alex inquired inside the meeting room. Liam’s voice trembling desperately, “Sir Alex, I need this job for my family. I have three children in college. Please don’t fire me. I beg you.” His eyes brimmed with tears. “When you fired those workers for no reasons, did you consider that they also have a family to feed?” Alex said. Lucas quickly knelt, pleading, “Sir Alex, I'm begging you. Please, you can cut my salary, but don’t cut off my lifeline. I have five children. It is Luster and Ugor who forced me to insult you

"I am Sophia Deneuve's husband," Alex declared. Both guards looked surprised. To avoid any trouble, a guard called over a bunch of family chauffeurs, wishing one of them would recognize him. "Hey, any of you know this person?" Several drivers strolled up to get a closer look. "Hey, it's Alex, isn't it? Remember me? We've crossed paths a few times on the project site," mentioned the driver for Sophia's parents. "Exactly," Alex responded. "You're Eddie, right?" "Do you know him?" the security guard inquired of Eddie. "Yeah, he's a construction worker," Eddie replied. "Oh, I heard there's a problem with the event area's toilet drainage," the guard remarked. "Were you the one summoned to address it? I was told no one has tended to it, and it's after hours already." "No," Alex asserted firmly. "I'm here as Sophia's husband." The drivers and security guards erupted into laughter. "You've got some jokes there. Really funny," one driver teased. "Do you think any dog and cat can be

Sophia continued, "This man is really my husband. We have our marriage certificate. He's not just a toilet fixer, he works on Total Construction." Sophia’s father approached Alex. "Aren't you Alex, the construction worker of our hotel?" "Yes, Sir," Alex replied. "Isn't a construction worker and a toilet fixer the same thing? Poor labor?" Envira chimed in, unable to wait to deliver one or two blows to lower Sophia’s status within the family. “A lowly human!” "Sophia," the old grandmother said with a lot of anger and hatred. She now held the key to the Deneuve riches, since her husband had become senile. "I don't want to hear something like this anymore. Let's pretend we didn't hear anything. Please, continue with the event.” “And you, toilet fixer, a lowly human, I command you to sign the divorce papers tomorrow. You are not welcome to Deneuve’s. Get out of here!” "Grandmother!" Sophia pledged. The grandmother ignored Sophia and gave Alex a disgusted look. "Why haven't you left

"Alex, stop talking," Sophia suddenly interjected, her tone serious. "Don’t say something you don’t really know. It's embarrassing." "But I am telling the truth, a man must not lie!" Alex replied. "What?" Envira interjected. "Will you next say you are the heir to the king?" "Yes!" Alex replied. Laughter broke out around him, some mocking him openly. "You should become a clown instead of a toilet fixer! You are so funny." "If the royal family heard this, you would be facing a death penalty," mocked Miranda Deneuve. “Even a clown knows the boundaries of joking, but this man has none. He will bring us all to our deaths soon.” "Sister-in-law," Miranda Deneuve disgustingly addressed Sophia’s mother, "How did you raise your daughter to end up with such a lowly man? Did you instill your low standards in her? You will tarnish the Deneuve name! Quickly, tell your daughter to kneel in front of my mother for her disgraceful acts!" "Sophia, please just divorce him. He is making a clown of

Under the luxury chandeliers of the Deneuve mansion, and heavy atmosphere, Grandma Deneuve glared at Sophia, her eyes seething with deep anger. “Listen up, everyone. I am the DENEUVE!” With a swift motion, she raised her stick and struck the marble floor, resonating a loud echo throughout the room. “Anything you do to tarnish the Deneuve’s name, making it the laughingstock of people, is akin to a slap on my face!" "For you, Sophia, I will take back everything you have gained from Deneuve until your divorce with this lowlife!" she continued vehemently. "Effective immediately, you are no longer the CEO of Deneuve Hotels!" Grandma Deneuve had appointed Sophia, the goddess of Blackwood, as the CEO of the Deneuve business to increase her market value. Many wealthy heirs had already approached her, bearing luxurious gifts. Yet, in her pursuit of the highest bidder for Sophia, she failed to notice a lowly thief who, appearing out of nowhere, captured her granddaughter's heart. That jerk

Under the night sky, behind the road that was just lit by a streetlamp, and a cold wind blows.Sophia’s father frustratingly yelled into the phone. “You are my best friend! How can you refuse to lend me $100,000? Whenever you needed my help, I was always there for you. I'm not asking for a million, just $100,000.”Sophia, Alex, and her mother looked at Tommy, as he argued over the phone.“What? My big brother Andrew called you? I’ve been kicked out of the family? Can’t pay you later? Damn you!” He slammed his phone shut and turned his pale faces to Sophia and his wife.“They’ve called everyone, telling them not to give us any loans.”Sophia’s mother turned to her daughter, blaming her. "See what you have done to us? Divorce this man so we can get everything back! Why must you be so stubborn? Look, we end up on the street, homeless! Because of you."Sophia's head was low.Alex stopped a taxi and yelled to them, “Let's not fight on the road. Let’s get out of here first. We can figure ev

In the luxury penthouse, Sophia and Alex entered the bedroom together, under the watchful eyes of Sophia's parents.Inside the bedroom, Alex gestured towards the connecting door and said, "I will sleep in the next room."Sophia's face turned red, and she nodded. She had thought they would sleep together, and this reminded her of the morning's events.In his own bedroom, Alex activated his device and made a call to Howard."Sir, it's Alex. How can I help you?""Sorry for bothering you late at night.""No worries, I'm still at the office," Howard responded."Sophia Deneuve, the former CEO of Deneuve. Please send her an invitation to work as the General Manager at Total Construction Blackwood."Howard checked the main system, "Yes, Sir. Sophia Deneuve has all the qualifications to be a General Manager. What about the salary?""Give her twice the Luster’s last salary," Alex instructed."I will do it, Sir."Alex ended the connection with Howard and proceeded to call Lavinia, his personal a

After bidding farewell to Ferdinand, Alex, William, and Rudolf boarded their old car back to the Steel Family, each having gained something valuable from their journey.Upon returning, William and Rudolf summoned the entire Steel Family to distribute elixirs for faster growth, while keeping secret from outsider.Alex then settled into his private room to focus on intense practice.That evening, Alex learned from the Alchemist Association’s Carmen Lie that a group of assassins had attempted to steal the Iron plate but were swiftly dealt with by her bodyguards.Alex’s eyebrow twitched, surprised that anyone in Miracle City would dare attempt such a brazen act, and he guessed the assassins must have known the smartphone’s true purpose—serving as a key to many hidden bunkers and locked places in ancient ruins—making such a dangerous risk worthwhile in their eyes.Only the Outlaw could be bold enough for such crimes, leaving Alex certain of their involvement.Regardless of whether it was t

Alex had already fused with a Phantom, though no one knew.His trip wasn’t simply to find an ordinary Beast Genetic, so William’s references were of little use.“I have my own plan,” Alex said with a nod.William and Rudolf exchanged anxious smiles. They kept forgetting that this fifteen-year-old was no ordinary child—he was more like a monster genius, beyond their ability to guide or decide for.The car sped forward, and Alex had William check that no one was trailing them.Once he confirmed they weren’t being followed, Alex finally relaxed.Despite that, a lingering worry remained that someone might be monitoring him—either the Bolton Family or the Outlaw group.Both had immense power, but luckily neither seemed interested in following a teenager this time.By the time they did pay attention, Alex believed he would have already grown too strong for them to handle.Beast Genetic Merchant Hall – VIP RoomUpon revealing their identities at the Beast Genetic Merchant Hall, Alex and his

“Sixty-five million dollars!” Carmen Lie’s voice rang out through the hushed auction hall. Despite the hammering of her own heart, she refused to back down.Alex had given clear orders: whatever the cost, the iron plate must be won—and he would pay.She swallowed hard. Sixty million... Was this battered piece of metal really worth it? What was so special about it that Alex insisted she secure it at all costs?From the raised balcony, Alex studied the cloaked figure down on the main floor.Whoever the man was, he was determined to challenge the Alchemist Association head-on.“Seventy million,” the mystery bidder called. He sounded uncertain but still pressed forward.“Seventy-five million,” Carmen countered immediately.Gasps rippled across the crowd. The price soared higher and higher.Nearby, William and Rudolf stood speechless. They knew Alex needed that plate, but they hadn’t expected the bidding to explode like this.Their minds buzzed: Just how deep are Alex’s pockets? How much

“Grand Elder Rudolf, take this Body Strength Pill. Consume it once you’re home—it’ll do wonders for a Fighter’s physical prowess.”Alex handed Rudolf a small pill, its surface gleaming with faint energy.“Thank you, Alex!” Rudolf’s voice trembled with emotion.He knew how ridiculously expensive Body Strength Pills had become; rumors claimed one could cost over a million dollars.Nearby, William’s eyes shone with envy.He knew as well as anyone that these pills weren’t just for Fighters—Magicians benefited greatly from them, too.“Alex,” William said with a respectful nod, “the Steel Family is your family. Our treasury is your treasury. Take whatever you like from it.” He gestured expansively.In truth, most items left in the Steel Family’s vault were useless to them.He actually hoped Alex would take more. The elixirs Alex had already given were worth more than the entire Steel Family combined.“I’m surprised by your generosity, Patriarch,” Alex said, eyeing William.“It seems I’ve mi

Rudolf took the bottles from Alex and immediately opened one.His eyes went wide the instant he saw the contents: a mix of Mana Refining Pills and Mana Gathering Pills.Though each pill was tiny, their authenticity was unmistakable, and realizing what he held made his heart pound with excitement.He discovered there were a hundred high-rank potions in one of the box—an astonishing number.Typically, only the most influential families had access to such elixirs; finding them on the open market was nearly impossible.Not too long ago, Miracle City’s King Auction House sold only a few high-rank potions.Just one fetched the staggering sum of five hundred thousand dollars.If a single potion could command that price, then hundreds would easily be worth over a ten to hundred million!This enormous figure almost made Rudolf feel faint.No matter how wealthy you were, getting your hands on high-rank potions without special channels was nearly unthinkable.“These pills are pricey right now be

Mateo and Jose joined the bidding war the moment it began, their voices cutting through the din as four prominent families clashed over those coveted pills.The commotion only settled when the price soared to three hundred and twenty thousand dollars—a sum that made the entire room hold its breath.William, rubbing his hands together in a mix of excitement and nerves, sidled up to Alex.“Alex, these are precious Mana Refining Pills,” he said, voice pitched low.“You sure you’re not going to buy? Better you get them than watch those other families snatch them all.”Alex merely shrugged and leaned back in his chair.“Not really interested,” he answered softly.“I’ve picked up quite a few items already. Let the others have some fun bidding—it’s boring if only one person wins every time.”William didn’t know whether to laugh or groan.He was well aware how valuable Mana Refining Pills could be for cultivating the younger generation.But then a thought struck him: these pills came from the

William's and Rudolf's faces turned pale.They were just a small clan; without a noble title, they might never stand among the other clans.Even with their noble status intact, they remained at the bottom of the hierarchy.The two noble clans standing before them could crush the Steel family any time they wanted.Alex stood abruptly, a wide grin splitting his face.“When a man lets his mouth run, the words are like spit—once out, they can’t be taken back. It’s disgusting.”“What do you mean by that?” Mateo demanded, his brows furrowing.“I accept your war cry. Starting tomorrow, let our clans go to war!” Alex declared boldly.William grabbed Alex by the arm, panic etched on his face. “What are you doing? Do you want to get our clan destroyed?”Alex shook his head, his smile sharp. “Why care about two small clans like theirs? We’ll call the Alchemist Association. With their help and a thousand gold and silver ranks fighters, we can flatten their clan. Once they’re out of the way, we’ll

Mateo and Jose scoffed like they had something foul caught in their throats.They couldn’t fathom why the almighty Alchemist Guild would even bother dealing with the Steel Family.They’d sent their own lackeys to snoop around, but came up empty.Now, tension clogged the air inside the private gallery.Rudolf and Alex sat off to the side, enjoying their tea and keeping quiet.This was a clash among heads of noble houses; neither man felt any need to join the bickering—unless it served them.Rudolf leaned in toward Alex.He whispered, “Ramirez and Sanchez have always strutted around like roosters. When the Steel Family was in the gutter, they tried to buy up our land for pocket change.”“We knew who was behind it and refused. Later, during the Bolton crackdown on us, these two vultures swooped in and snatched our trade routes.”At that, Alex narrowed his eyes at Mateo and Jose.Petty spats among small clan heads never interested him.But since these two were Bolton’s lapdogs, they had t

Alex meticulously copied three of his elixir recipes into papers.Each was designed to boost Miracle City’s overall strength, yet he understood the importance of restraint.Introducing them all at once could overwhelm the city’s foundations, causing more harm than good.He had already planned to share these formulas, even without any prompting or persuasion from Carmen Lie.Once he was done, Alex lifted his gaze to meet Carmen’s.“I can only offer three recipes for now,” he said in a level tone.“They’re all highly potent, especially the Cold Resistance Pill. I’m sure you already know how useful that one can be.”Her eyes sparkled with excitement.“Thank you, Alex. You’ve contributed so much to Miracle City. If the King were to hear of this, I’m certain he’d grant you a higher title of nobility!”Alex shook his head, dismissing the idea. “I have no interest in titles or prestige. I only ask that you keep my involvement quiet.”Carmen couldn’t hide her amazement at his maturity; he was
