This wasn't the first time Alexander had heard about his extended stay in his mother's womb for 15 months. In fact, people had once regarded him as a cursed child, believing that such an extraordinary duration of pregnancy was a sign of something sinister. The nurses who were aware of this peculiar circumstance even taunted him, comparing him to a demon from hell. Not many people knew about it though, however, this time, someone had described it as a blessing and recognized his uniqueness.The old man chuckled and said, "There's no need for you to delve deeper into this matter at the moment. It would only serve as a distraction. Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, you're likely to face misfortune, and I'm here to assist you."As he spoke, the old man reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. Within the paper was a black pill, which emitted an unpleasant odor.Both Isabel and Alexander wrinkled their noses in response.The old man continued, "This pill is the solution
As the other shareholders entered the room, they swiftly sold their shares, and the monetary transactions were completed promptly. After packing up their belongings, they departed, leaving only Mr. Matthew, Kristine, Alexander, and Isabel behind."The Taylor family is gearing up to give their best shot at finishing Light World Entertainment," he said, acknowledging the reality of their predicament. "And we have no choice but to let them succeed."Mr. Matthew, still coming to terms with his loss of authority in the company, was taken aback but attempted to speak up before hesitating, mindful of his new position. In his mind, he just said, "Did you buy this company just to destroy it?"However, Alexander encouraged him to share his thoughts freely, prompting Mr. Matthew to express his concern, "If we allow Taylor Entertainment to strike us, it will undoubtedly spell the end for us."In response, Alexander challenged him, "Do you have any counterplans in mind?"Mr. Matthew, though unsure
Ping! Alexander's phone chimed as a new message popped up on the screen. To his delight, it was a message containing Monique's phone number. Without any hesitation, he immediately dialed the number and put his phone on loudspeaker to assure his friend Matthew that everything was fine.As soon as the call connected, a mesmerizing and enchanting voice greeted him, "Hey, little brother, I've been eagerly waiting for your call, and yes, I'll sign with Light World."The unexpected revelation address from Monique had left Alexander speechless for a moment, prompting him to remove the phone from loudspeaker to maintain privacyWith gratitude in his voice, he managed to respond, "Thank you."Curious to meet in person, Monique asked, "Can we meet?"There was a brief pause on Alexander's end as he considered her request before finally inquiring, "Where?"Monique suggested, "How about at Mom's house?"After a moment of thought, Alexander simply replied with an affirmative "Okay" and ended the ca
The Internet was abuzz with excitement as something unexpected unfolded. Monique, the renowned and beloved singer, had recently signed a contract with Light World Entertainment, a company that had been struggling to stay afloat. This unexpected move was like a ray of hope for the struggling entertainment company, and the news spread like wildfire after Monique posted it on her social media.Among the flood of comments on Monique's post, one fan exclaimed, "My Idol, Monique is joining Light World Entertainment!" Another fan showered her with affection, writing, "Monique, I love you!" However, not everyone was entirely convinced by her decision, as one user questioned, "Monique, why did you join Light World? You're better than that, but I still love you."Despite the skepticism from some fans, Monique's announcement had a significant impact on Light World Entertainment's status, giving it a much-needed boost. However, Matthew, aware that this single post might not be enough to revitaliz
Monique suggested, "Shall we take a seat and discuss matters further over a meal?""Sure," replied Sam, the representative of Taylor Entertainment.Monique, Isabel, and Sam settled down at the table. Monique decided to have a cup of coffee, and Sam followed suit, ordering coffee as well. Isabel, on the other hand, opted for a delightful serving of ice cream. As Monique and Sam engaged in conversation, their cups of coffee sat untouched. Meanwhile, Isabel indulged in several servings of her ice cream, prompting Sam to quietly remark to himself, "This girl is a queen of gluttony."Cutting straight to the point, Monique spoke up, "So you're saying that Taylor Entertainment is willing to make amends. Could you please elaborate on how they plan to do so?"Sam took a sip of his coffee and responded, "Firstly, Taylor Entertainment is prepared to offer you a monetary compensation of one million dollars. Additionally, we are willing to sponsor any shows you organize and cover all your expenses
The next day, the Xander Entertainment team, comprising the now turned manager Mr. Matthew, Monique, and their legal representatives, convened at a private room at an hotel. It was an important gathering as the team from Taylor Entertainment, led by Sam, Noah Taylor, and their lawyers, was also scheduled to attend.Upon everyone's arrival, Sam took the initiative and rose to his feet, signaling the commencement of the meeting. "Now that we are all here, we can begin," he declared confidently.However, Matthew, Xander Entertainment's manager, interjected, his tone suggesting a different perspective. "We are not all here," he asserted, causing a wave of confusion among the people from Taylor Entertainment.Perplexed, Sam inquired, "What do you mean?"Matthew felt the need to elaborate, ensuring everyone understood the gravity of the situation. "We are waiting for someone who holds immense importance within our company. Proceeding without his presence would hinder our progress."Upon hea
Alexander's enigmatic smile graced his face, brimming with intrigue. "Isn't it fascinating how a seemingly trivial matter stirred up the Taylor family's desire to eliminate me?"With negotiations now discarded, Noah, unconcerned, spoke his mind without restraint. "It's nothing short of a miracle that you managed to survive. However, surviving once does not guarantee your survival in the future."A chuckle escaped Alexander's lips as he rose from his seat. "Ever confident, aren't you? It's a necessity, really. The Taylor family holds immense power and influence in Fairview. Any lack of confidence would be a letdown to the family."Alexander indulged in a sip of his short glass of alcohol, a mischievous smile playing on his face. "Allow me to pose two questions to you."Noah arrogantly crossed his legs and swiftly downed the drink before him. "Certainly, what are they?"Maintaining his serene smile, Alexander continued, his voice filled with intrigue. "Firstly, have you ever pondered ho
Gem Taylor, previously composed during the call, suddenly contorted his face into a mask of fury and rage as Alexander abruptly ended the call. "How dare he? That insignificant wretch. I'll ensure he suffers a gruesome fate. I will make sure to tear him apart limb from limb and feed him to the ravenous dogs."After simmering in anger for a while, Gem managed to regain his composure and proceeded to transfer the required funds. At that moment, Alexander occupied the pinnacle of his list of despised individuals. Their previous attempt to eliminate Alexander had fallen through, leaving Gem wary of any impulsive actions that could potentially backfire against him and his allies.Once he had collected himself, Gem reached for his phone and commanded, "Initiate Plan B." It appeared that he had already formulated this contingency plan, albeit with the intention of utilizing it later. However, Alexander's recent actions had forced Gem to push its implementation forward.In the meantime, Alexa
