Ramsayâs face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.
But he dared not bleat. He nodded and walked away in despair. He left the room.
Bernard then asked, âMaster Alex, did anyone here offend you?â
Alex brushed his hair with his fingers and said, âNothing serious. But this dude here insulted my
girlfriend in front of me. Iâm not sure how I should deal with him.â
Bernard raged, âYou piece of shit! You signed your own death warrant. Guards! Throw him into the river
and drown him!â
Everyone was frightened.
Edgar felt a shiver run down his spine. He hurriedly said, âWait! I am the CEO of Pegasus International,
Edgar Shepherd. Iâm associated with Lord Lex Gunther of Thousand Miles Conglomerate. You canât do
this to me!â
As he finished his words, Bernard slapped his face.
Slap!
âDo you think that Lord Gunther will bother to help you? Drown him!â said Bernard.
Edgar panicked and he dropped on both knees pleading, âNo, please! I was wrong, I apologize! Let me
compensate you, Mr. Bernard. Master⦠Master Alex, please just give me a chance, Iâd owe you a big
time.â
He was really frightened.
The king of the underworld would always suit the action to the words. Once a kill order was given, it
would be executed.
Dr. Cheryl couldnât bear to see a murder.
She held Alexâs hand. Then she shook her head gently.
Alex nodded, smiled at her, and said, âForget about it. Exempt him from drowning. My girlfriend canât
bear to see this kind of thing. Break one of his legs as a punishment so he will never forget what he
did.â
Snap!
A security guard broke Edgarâs left leg straight away.
Dr. Cheryl covered her face as she couldnât bear to see it.
Alex said, âAlright, itâs a wrap! I ate too much, letâs go for a walk!â
Bernard handed back the Supreme VIP card and greeted, âGoodbye, Master Alex.â
The rest of the security guards bowed and greeted, âGoodbye, Master Alex.â
As Alex and Dr. Cheryl left the restaurant, Benjamin and the rest looked like they had just woken up
from a dream. They were drenched in sweat.
While Dr. Cheryl was strolling with Alex, she asked, âActually, who are you?â
Alex laughed. âLook at you! Are you scared of me because of what just happened?â
âIâve heard about the famous Supreme VIP card of Thousand Miles Conglomerate. Those with this card
are as high ranked as Lord Lex Gunther. But he is not a good person. Are you close to him?â Dr. Cheryl
asked.
Alex shrugged and said, âIâm not! This card belongs to my father. My father has done business with
Thousand Miles Conglomerate. Thatâs how he got this card. But now, heâs gone. So, you have nothing
to worry about me being associated with him.â
Dr. Cheryl patted herself on her voluptuous breast, âSo it is. Now, Iâm relieved.â
She paused and continued, âThank you for what you did for me just now. If it werenât for you, Iâd be
embarrassed.â
Alex was flustered by the movement of her voluptuous breast. He blurted, âIs that all?â
Dr. Cheryl was annoyed. âWhat do you want more from me? Marry you? Donât you dare!â
âCough, cough, I was just pulling your leg,â Alex said.
Then, they bid farewell at the intersection.
Alex sat alone on the side of the road and thought to himself, âWhere should I go? Should I stay in a
hotel tonight? Or should I go back to the Assex family?â
Deep down in his heart, he didnât want to go back to the Assex family.
Alex thought that maybe Dorothy would be very worried about him since she rang upon him a dozen
times and he did not respond for quite some time.
âYou believed in the scum but not me! Even nodded and agreed to him! You fool!â Alex said to himself.
After a while, he turned his phone back on.
More than thirty text messages from Dorothy flooded in. All the messages were to apologize. Before he
could finish reading them, Dorothy called.
Alex hesitated. Then, he answered the call.
âHoney, where are you?!â Dorothy was crying.
Alex felt heartbroken when he heard Dorothyâs cry. But he held back and slapped himself. He
toughened up and said, âStop calling me honey. Youâre Sparkâs fiancé now. Iâm no longer your
husband. I donât deserve to be your husband.â
