“Thank you for the warning, Captain Simpson. I’ll be more careful.” “Well… The police will also be vigilant all the time.” Captain Simpson thought about it but did not speak out the suggestion of arranging police officers to protect Alex. Even if he did, Alex would most likely refuse, and it would also be an insult to Big Ken. After all, protecting Alex Cohen was Big Ken’s main job. However, just because Captain Simpson did not say it did not mean that he abandoned the idea. If it was
What Isla just said not only made his heart feel more comfortable, it also made him more determined to pursue her. The reason why he felt that the time was not ripe to confess to Isla was because he was worried that she would not be able to accept constantly having to live in fear… As Alex analyzed, Isla did make certain compromises in order to be together with him. To accept him was to accept his state of life. As the two talked, Isla’s phone rang. It was from Victor Sullivan. Isla answ
Alex was initially quite apprehensive, not knowing whether Victor Sullivan and Xena Sanders would accept him as their son-in-law. Xena and him had fallen out to the point of drawing knives against each other, and the conflicts that had been piling up for months could not be completely resolved in a short period of time. He had long been completely disappointed in Xena and no longer cared about what she thought of him. Instead, he was more concerned about Victor's reaction. Although the sayin
Speaking of which, Alex also suddenly realized a problem. Should he discuss his marriage with his biological parents in advance? Victor noticed Alex frown and thought that he was feeling awkward,, and hurriedly compromised. “Alex and Lala have gone through so many hardships. It wasn’t easy to stay together, so let’s not pay too much attention and just keep it simple. Besides, aren’t matchmakers no longer widespread in cities? I think that the same applies to the countryside too." "How is t
Xena's attitude had broken through Alex's tolerance threshold. Alex's patience had been exhausted. He directly got up and said to Xena with a blank expression, “I won’t give an answer to the request you made for now. I think what Mr. Sullivan said was very reasonable. This is about Lala’s marriage after all, so it’s best that you communicate with her first. By the way, I don't owe you anything, and I don't owe your family anything.” “Hiss…” Xena got angry and also stood up, glaring at Alex
Victor did not say anything and angrily slammed the door as he left. He was still unsure of where to go, but that was not important. It was fine as long as he was no longer in that house. However, the moment he reached downstairs, he was stopped by two young men with masks. Victor noticed that one of the men had an indistinct tattoo on his arm and realized that something was wrong. He immediately suppressed more than half of his pent up anger and said tentatively, “Please move aside.” The
After hearing Alex’s response, Isla felt better in her heart. She took out her phone and dialed her father’s phone number, but there was no response. Thinking that her father was still arguing with her mother, she stopped calling and sent a message via WhatsApp, briefly explaining her thoughts. Big Ken kept a high level of vigilance and carefully observed the whole way, but still could not find any abnormalities. However, just to be safe, Big Ken deliberately took a long detour on the way, t
“Wait!” The tattooed man stopped Isla and said in a deep voice: "Isla Sullivan, are you treating me like a three-year-old child? I’ll add a few more requests. First, you can't hang up the video call unless you have my permission. Secondly, don't try to be perfunctory, just do as I say. If you violate any of these conditions, someone here will die!" “No! I'm not messing with you, Alex really hasn't come back yet…” “I guess you’re the kind who won’t learn until reality slaps you in the face!
