Gem immediately became angry and turned around, saying, "Don't go too far. Don't you have respect for your elders? Did your grandfather not teach you anything?"John felt upset when Gem spoke ill of his grandfather. However, Gem held the same status as his grandfather, so John couldn't take any action. He looked at Alexander, who was still eating, and said, "I've done my part. Isn't it time for you to do yours?"Alexander lazily stood up and replied, "Sure." He took a few steps and stood in front of Gem Taylor, delivering a hard slap that made Gem's mouth bleed."Are you so weak? I wanted to slap you some more," Alexander said, as everyone looked on in shock.Gem felt provoked and exclaimed, "How dare you, Alexander?"Alexander casually responded, "Isabelle, if he says another word, slap him. If he says two words, slap him twice, continuously."Gem frowned, "Alexander, do you think....." However, before he could finish his words, he received four slaps. His face was not just bleeding
Old Mr. Chen made a response, saying, "Many people believe that the Forbes family is connected to young master G and that both Arthur and the Forbes family have the support of young master G. However, if I'm not mistaken, Arthur is your subordinate and I can confidently say that you have complete control over the Forbes family, am I right?"Alexander's face lit up with a dangerous expression as he replied, "You are not wrong, indeed."Old Mr. Chen sensed the impending danger and said, "Rest assured, I won't reveal your secret. I wouldn't dare expose your true identity. It's clear to me that you possess more power than even we, the top five families in Fairview. All I desire is to be your friend, nothing more."Taking a sip of his tea, Alexander remarked, "This tea is excellent.""Are you familiar with tea too?" inquired Old Mr. Chen.Shaking his head, Alexander responded, "No, I don't know much about tea. However, this particular tea is truly delicious."Old Mr. Chen shared, "I person
The Taylor family had come back home. Gem Taylor was both embarrassed and angry. His grandson had made him lose respect in front of others. Additionally, Alexander slapped him in public, completely disregarding Gem's reputation and dignity.Gem gritted his teeth and swore, "Alexander, I promise you will pay for this."Noah, on the other hand, felt extremely embarrassed. As soon as he reached home, he retreated to his room. Despite his grandfather's affection for him, Noah could sense that his grandfather was currently furious.As time passed, the initial events that had taken place at the birthday celebration of the patriarch of the Chen family began to fade away, becoming buried under the passing weeks. Though the memory of the events lingered in people's minds, specifically the second-rate families who were there and had witnessed the scene, no one dared to openly discuss it, fully aware of the potential consequences. The situation was volatile, and just like a single match can ign
Suddenly, all the lights turned off and a single spotlight illuminated the entrance leading to the stage. At the same time, the person whom Sam had sent to inform Monique to be prepared rushed over to Sam, appearing panicked."Sir, something's not right. Monique is..." he began to say, but he abruptly stopped, his face filled with surprise, as a figure made its way slowly onto the stage.The person wondered, "How is this possible?" Meanwhile, Sam paid no attention to him, completely disregarding his presence.The figure was completely covered and hidden beneath a cloak. The audience assumed this was part of a deliberate strategy to enhance the figure's mystique and popularity. However, in a sudden turn of events, the cloak slipped off, revealing a lifeless mannequin.The robotic mannequin was designed to move gracefully on stage, resembling a human when controlled. Its construction allowed for easy maneuverability, impressing everyone who saw it amidst their anger but undercurrents we
To be exact, Gem had a strong suspicion that the recent attacks were part of a coordinated effort orchestrated by someone. Although his thoughts briefly considered Alexander as a potential culprit, Gem quickly dismissed the idea, believing Alexander lacked the necessary power and resources for such a scheme. Instead, his focus shifted entirely towards the Baker family, as he believed they were the ones behind these malicious plans after all, he offended them. Unknown to the Baker family, they had unwittingly become pawns in a revenge plot, with Alexander using them as a front for his own vendetta instead of the other way round. This intricate web of deception had left them completely clueless about their involvement in something far beyond their comprehension.In the Baker family's residence, Mr. Baker was seated in the living room, deep in thought. Helen, his daughter, was about to head out when he called out to her, expressing his concerns about Alexander. Curious, Helen asked, "Wh
It was a glorious morning, and the sun's warm rays gently streamed through the curtains as Alexander awakened, stifling a yawn. As he made his way to the living room, he found Monique and Isabel already wide awake, deeply engrossed in conversation."Good morning, you two," Alexander greeted cheerfully, his smile lighting up the room.Monique and Isabel reciprocated the greeting, "Good morning."Taking his seat among them, Monique inquired, "So, can I still head out today?"Alexander's expression turned serious as he replied, "Not just yet. The battle has begun. Capitalizing on this opportunity, Xander Entertainment has launched its own full-scale attacks on Taylor Entertainment. Furthermore, the Baker and Taylor families have joined the fray unexpectedly. It's an intense situation. And Monique, you play a crucial role in this battle, so it's not safe for you to go out right now. However, if you're in the mood for some shopping, I can bring the shopping to you or anything you want to d
Hearing Damien's words, Alexander's mind became a whirlwind of thoughts and possibilities. Without hesitation, he reached for his phone and swiftly dialed Arthur's number, conveying an urgent message, "Arthur, inform the mayor that someone important is visiting from the capital. Meet me at his residence immediately."A sly smile crept onto Alexander's face as he made this decision, realizing that this course of action was not initially part of his plan. Nevertheless, he saw an opportunity and decided to seize it. Turning to Isabelle, he spoke, "Isabelle, it seems our previous arrangements will have to be put on hold. We must deal with this matter first. Take me home so I can change.""Of course, young master," Isabelle responded dutifully, steering the car toward their mansion in Greenwich estate. Once they arrived, Alexander put on a white suit and adorned his face with a distinctive golden mask, transforming himself into the mysterious persona of young master G.Despite Damien's sch
Seated comfortably in the mayor's home, Alexander wasted no time addressing his concerns directly."Mr. Mayor, I must express my profound disappointment with your management of affairs here in Fairview. As a prominent figure in the political world, you hold considerable power and responsibility, but it seems you have allowed the situation to deteriorate. Citizens are acting with impunity, engaging in criminal activities, and yet no decisive action is being taken. Should this information reach the higher authorities in the capital, it's inevitable that you may lose your seat and potentially face legal consequences."The mayor responded with bitterness, "Sir, the situation is not as straightforward as it appears. I assure you that I am doing my best to prosecute criminals and address the issues at hand. The world we live in is far from being just black and white."Alexander flashed a confident smile, his eyes gleaming with a hint of mischief, though his expression remained veiled behind
