âWell, you are silly! Alright, you serve it. You have pretty rough skin, so you wonât get burnt.â
âYeah, yeah, Iâm just an ox, I wonât be fazed by the hot temperature.â
Alex picked up the plate and walked out of the kitchen. He could hear Mayaâs light chuckles behind
him. But, he didnât hear her mumble to herself later on. âThis is fine. Iâm happy that I get to see you
every day like this.â
After dessert, Brittany, Maya, Chloe and Nicholas started discussing about the new company.
Alex could tell that Maya didnât just resign to accompany Brittany, she wanted to help her out in the new
company as well. Yet again, thereâs a possibility that Brittany was the one who invited Maya along.
Alex wasnât interested in the business field, hence he made up an excuse to do some research on the
Yowellsâ Slunce Jauda. It was still flawed after all.
Half an hour of researching later, Alex clenched a piece of cloth into his hand and activated his Chi.
As he released his grip, the cloth had turned into ashes.
âSo this is The Slunce Jauda.â He mumbled to himself, shaking his head gently.
Compared to the Force, this so-called Slunce Jauda of the Yowells is literal trash. If the Force were to
be described as a big city with immediate access to any transportation, the Slunce Jauda would be an
outdated village with just muddy paths.
Another half an hour later, Alex was able to come up with ten or so different ways to amend the
Yowellsâ traditional martial arts.
In the end, he was able to pick one out that was most suitable for the Yowells, even the females would
be able to train with this with ease. He noted the new amendments down on a piece of paper and left it
on his table.
It was already three in the afternoon when Waltz had arrived fashionably late at the villa.
Waltz was wearing a gorgeous bright red dress at the time. Maya couldnât help but stare in disbelief as
Waltz got out of her Lamborghini.
âMs. Fleur from Thousand Miles Conglomerate?
âWhat is she doing here?â
Back then, Maya had to meet up with the Thousand Miles Conglomerate due to work. She was able to
meet Waltz as well. This gorgeous yet cruel woman had left quite an impression on Maya.
As Lex Guntherâs goddaughter, Waltz had made quite the name for herself as well. She was the CEO
of Thousand Miles Conglomerateâs sea freight company and managed one-third of the water-borne
trades in California.
It was rumored that she was one of the Thousand Miles Conglomerate Three Great Chieftains of
Californiaâs underworld as well.
âNeither Alex nor Brittany should have connections to such a female boss, right?
âIs she here for me?â
Maya immediately rushed up to welcome her. âMs. Fââ
However, Waltz held a bento in her hands and rushed up to Brittany instead, ignoring Maya. She
cheerfully said, âMadame, these are some pastries I bought from Aroma Patisserie of City South just
for you! Itâs good for both health and beauty. Do try some, please!â
She opened the bento and handed Brittany a pair of chopsticks.
Maya was in complete shock.
âThis⦠is this really the Ms. Fleur I know?â
âWhy would Ms. Fleur and Godmother know each other?â
Just then, Waltz asked, âMadame, whereâs Brother Alex? Is he not at home?â
âHeâs upstairs, I donât even know what heâs doing.â
âIâll go check up on him.â
After that, Waltz nodded gently towards Maya and went upstairs.
Alex had already overheard their conversation downstairs. As Waltz knocked on the door, Alex
responded, âCome in. Have you been messing around the whole day? Your job as a slave seems quite
easy.â
Waltz closed the door and walked up to Alex with a serious expression. âI went by West Hill Prison. The
driver who got into an accident with your parents last year died last night.
