The following morning, inside a meeting room at the prestigious White's Group, John, a promising young talent, sat across from Arthur, accompanied by his Personal Assistant. While they were not initially qualified to meet Arthur, an exception was made upon their request.

With an air of composed confidence, Arthur gazed at John and calmly inquired, "You requested to have a word with me?"

John, exuding an arrogant demeanor, responded without hesitation, "Indeed. When I made the arrangements, I specifically requested that you personally pick us up with a convoy of luxurious cars. Yet, you only sent one car with your servants to collect me. I must say, I find that to be quite a disgrace."

Arthur was taken aback by John's audacious remark. He couldn't believe that someone who paled in comparison to the influential Blackwell family when it came to power and reputation would have the audacity to insult him. Nonetheless, Arthur prided himself on maintaining composure even in the face of such

    "John posted a tweet on his social media about being bullied and treated badly by the White's Group. He even said that you, the CEO, insulted him personally, so his fans got angry and are attacking us," The secretary informed Arthur, concern evident in her voice.Arthur leaned back in his chair, a wry smile playing on his lips. "Ah, the power of the masses. It's fascinating, I must admit. But does he really think this is enough to topple my White's Group? Offending me may mean nothing. I could simply deal with him individually, but the White's Group is not fully under my control," he mused, his tone tinged with a mixture of amusement and contemplation.As the secretary was about to take her leave, the door to Arthur's office swung open, revealing Alexander accompanied by Isabel. The security guards, though unaware of Alexander's identity, they knew he had a close association with Arthur and thus allowed him to enter without questions.Arthur quickly rose from his seat, a respectful sm

"Remember when I mentioned finding a capable subordinate? Well, that's precisely why we're here."Isabel's eyes widened with confusion. "Wait, is the new subordinate a child?"Chuckling softly, Alexander affectionately patted her head. "Haha, no, my dear. I wouldn't take a child under my wing. They still need the care and nurturing of their mothers."Seeing her perplexed expression, Alexander decided to clarify further. "Let me explain. We're here to catch a thief.""A thief?" Isabel questioned, her curiosity now increased.Before she could delve further into her inquiries, Alexander's commanding voice broke the silence.

Ranking fourth among the city's most powerful families, the Forbes family held a position of considerable authority. However, lately, they had begun to perceive a decline in their once-unchallenged power, prompting them to take drastic measures.Thus, the closed-door event was conceived—an exclusive gathering meticulously designed for the elite of Fairview's business landscape, which included individuals like Arthur.

Isabel had incapacitated them to prevent their groans of pain from causing any disturbance.As Xavier's father approached, his eyes fell upon Xavier, who was in the midst of drinking with Alexander.

It was then that he realized he had inadvertently collided with a young woman, lost in his own thoughts. Before he could apologize, she impulsively slapped him."Emily?"

    THE END

    The onslaught of attacks was directed at Alexander, but rather peculiarly, it appeared as though they merely struck an invisible barrier before vanishing into thin air. This unexpected turn of events washed over Isabelle with a profound sense of relief, momentarily alleviating her apprehensions. However, her newfound comfort was abruptly replaced by a more profound sense of concern as she observed Alexander, who remained motionless, with his eyes firmly shut in an unsettling manner."Young Master!" Isabelle cried out once more, her voice trembling with anxiety, but there was still no sign of response from him.Notifying Lord Pluto and the rest of the group, she swiftly attempted to rush to Alexander's aid.

    Alexander wore a confident smile as he responded, "In the event of a clash between our forces, the outcome would undoubtedly be in our favor. While it's true that both of our factions possess great strength, the critical distinction lies in my approach. I don't merely seek personal power; I am dedicated to empowering my people. Behind me stand formidable martial artists and skilled weapon users, all contributing to our collective might."Captain Tiger guffawed heartily in response, "Our troops, in essence, serve as expendable pawns and sacrificial lambs – or, to put it bluntly, they're our meatshields. As leaders, it's our duty for our people to be willing to lay down their lives for us. The caveat is that we rely on their sacrifices to keep our operations afloat. Yet, as long as Captain Skeleton and I maintain our personal strength, it's sufficient to strike fear into our adversaries. This, in turn, ensures that our men don't meet their end quite so easily."With a sarcastic clap, Al

Isabelle, on the other hand, didn't need to express her belief; she had unwaveringly trusted Alexander from the beginning.Having settled the matter, Alexander addressed Isabelle with determination, saying, "There's no time for extensive preparations. Gather our people; we must march to battle immediately. Today, we shall seize control of Rhode Island."Isabelle responded with a nod, her smile reflecting her readiness, and she swiftly dispatched Terry and Townsend to carry out the orders.Alexander then turned to Lord Pluto, acknowledging the urgency, and said, "I'm certain your people are already preparing. Instead of coming here, they should head straight to where the

    "What one?" Alexander inquired, his brow furrowing in confusion as he struggled to grasp the gravity of Lord Pluto's words.In response, Lord Pluto's voice carried a somber tone as he recounted a past conversation, "During our initial encounter, Isabelle shared her audacious ambition with me – to conquer Rhode Island and emerge as the dominant power. I warned her that the existing peak forces in the region were formidable, and it seemed an insurmountable task, but she remained resolute."With a weary sigh, Lord Pluto continued to divulge, "I've taken precautionary measures since then; I've summoned my loyal followers and fortified my territory to shield it from external influences. It's not that I plan to betray them, but I'm not willing to jeopardize my life either so it's better i remain on the sidelines.

Yet, the part of the coast where Alexander had made his unexpected arrival fell within their territory.Curiously, this region had been left less guarded, as the Plutonians didn't anticipate any visitors attempting to access their territory by sea, considering the treacherous waters teeming with wildlife posed a significant deterrent.So it was truly a surprise to see Alexander come from there.It was a genuine shock to witness Alexander emerge from that particular location."Kneel!"

    Alexander approached Freya with a graceful stride, lowering his head in a polite bow as he spoke, "I extend my heartfelt gratitude."He then turned his attention to Uncle Three and performed a similar courteous gesture, expressing his appreciation, "Thank you for your assistance."Uncle Three, a jovial twinkle in his eye, replied with a chuckle, "Oh, I didn't really contribute much. Had it not been for this powerful lady here, my second brother might have persisted."Alexander's lips curled into a warm smile, his appreciation unwavering, "Nevertheless, your decision to come here alone carries great significance."Uncle Three acknowledged the gravity of the situation with a nod, "I understand that you have important matters to discuss with her. I'll take my leave now, leaving you to your conversation."Alexander gave a subtle nod, his eyes locked on Uncle Three as his figure slowly faded from view.

    FINAL BATTLE WITH SILAS 1

    Deep within the recesses of Uncle Two's mind, an intense desire burned within him, one he could scarcely admit even to himself. It was a wish, a sinister yearning, to violently dismantle Freya's world and force her to witness his merciless confrontation with Alexander. This desire was so powerful that it coursed through his every thought, yet he refrained from acting on it.Two primary reasons compelled Uncle Two to exercise caution. Firstly, he was unable to ascertain the true extent of Freya's abilities or her connections, leaving him in the dark regarding the potential consequences of his actions. Secondly, an overwhelming, ominous pressure seemed to emanate from Freya herself, a formidable force that served as a stark deterrent.Despite the fervent desire to bring Alexander to an end, Uncle Two cherished his own life, a natural instinct that whispered warnings of the grave dangers lurking should he tread recklessly on this treacherous path.
