Hearing that sentence coming from Aunt Rockefeller made Alex's heart skip a beat.There were no doubts about Aunt Rockefeller’s beauty.It was in the way she carried herself where not even the richest of the rich and famous could ever hope to reach that air of confidence.She was like the clouds on the horizon, stained with soft hues and ever-changing, never to be captured or controlled, so everyone could only admire and adore such beauty.She could play the part of the cool and the sophisticated, as well as being sweet and pretty. Sometimes she was a joy to be around, but at other times, drive someone up a wall.“S-stop joking around like that!” Alex quickly broke eye contact.“Heh, obviously, I was kidding. I’m your aunt, after all! Don’t ever let me catch you thinking about anything along those lines, or you’ll be in for a bashing!”As the two continued to bicker, Zachary followed them on another boat. He was tense and nervous for Alex, like walking on a tightrope.He had ju

Alex smiled but remained silent.***It was eleven in the noon when a helicopter took off from California airport, heading straight to Moonlight Lake.On the flight sat Soraya Melvis, Shaun Baker of the Four Great Guardians, and a grandmaster from the Melvis family named Lochlan, and two half-stepped Grandmasters.The Melvis family spared no effort in looking for Tucker.“Come on. There’s one hour left. Maybe we can still make it!” Soraya said.She cared because it was her cousin that had been kidnapped.“Miss Soraya, there’s no need to panic. It only takes 20 minutes to arrive at Moonlight lake by chopper. We still have time to recon the area!” Shaun laughed. “Glen, you’re too serious. We’re both grandmasters. Along with two half-stepped grandmasters, no place is off-limits to us. You know, it’s weird how Bennett himself didn’t come along. Doesn't he want to save his son’s life?” “My uncle says he has an important meeting tonight, so he had no choice but to stay behind,” So

Chapter 1213

“What? Zachary, why are you here too?”Soraya was beyond shocked at the situation at hand. It was completely different from what she had imagined.Lochlan, who recognized Zachary, immediately stopped and furrowed his brows. “Zachary, what kind of mediator are you? Does that mean you know the kidnapper too?”“He’s no kidnapper but the elder of the Divine Constabulary. He is also the maternal grandson of the president of the constabulary!” Zachary stated.Zachary was worried that chaos might ensue, especially since Alex and Shaun’s scuffle was still fresh.This first meeting really left no room for avoiding conflict.“What?” Soraya gasped, unable to process this information.Everyone else fell silent.‘If Ruby Lamar were to find out about Soraya failing to plan an assassination with a group thanks to Zachary’s words, what would her reaction be?’However, never could she have predicted that Zachary would be, of all places, here.Shaun harrumphed, unphased by his words. “Zachary,

Without warning, the ship, and its crew were all gone. He fell into the lake with a splash, his face a mask of bewilderment. “Where did they go?”The same thing happened with Shaun as he was charging toward the boat. Both Zachary and the boat had mysteriously vanished as well.He gazed around but saw no trace of the boat anywhere.“This is madness!”“Shaun, did it happen to you too? Like going straight through a mirror without seeing anyone?”“Exactly! What is this trickery?” Shaun yelled, fuming.“Illusion, it must be an illusion!” Lochlan shouted as he shot up from the water, his clothes wet through and his hair a disheveled mess. “You said he was a psychic user, right? They are skilled at using illusions, so he must have created an environment of illusion, and we were caught in it!”“What are we going to do now? Glen, aren't you supposed to be an expert with mental power?” Lochlan huffed. “I had no idea that his mental strength was so powerful to the point I got caught befo

Chapter 1215

Boom...At three in the morning, the sound of Melvis manor’s door crashing down was too loud to ignore. Families from hundreds of meters away could hear it and were startled, thinking it was some explosion.Alex’s jaw dropped open.Not because of the great noise, but because of the technique that Aunt Rockefeller used. It was beautiful, with her in jeans and black boots. That kick was a perfect copy.“Aunt, what was that style called?”“Beauty's Heart Sutra.”“Ah…”“Only a woman can learn this style so you can forget about learning it, but it was beautiful, wasn't it? That technique was called Jade's Graceful Kick! Do you wanna try taking it?”“...”Arm in arm with Alex, aunt Rockefeller marched through the threshold without hesitation.Ruby Lamar was currently on the east side villa of Melvis's family home. A woman of advanced age, even though she was worried for the safety of her grandson, Tucker, her body could not withstand staying up, so she retired to her bedroom and sl

Chapter 1216

Right after the last word left her lips, a human figure shot through the room like a bolt of lightning.That human figure was Samberg, who had earlier ran to check on the door.Looking as if he had just come out of an oven, his clothes were scorched black, and his face and hair were charred.“Ahhhh!!!”“Samberg, what happened to you?”Samberg was actually a distant relative from Lexia's side of the family, and he was a relatively strong grandmaster. Even Lexia addressed him as master. But seeing him like this made people break out in a cold sweat at how strong the enemy was.Alexis, another strong grandmaster, looked to be in bad spirits as well.“Madame, the situation is bad. The enemy is powerful. It's a cultivation guru, and they even have Mr. Tucker as a hostage. There is no way the martial artists in the Melvis family can stop them. I’ll send you away from Melvis family home at once to ensure you're safe,” Samberg said in a hushed voice. “What?” Bennett Melvis started to

“You… you're talking shit!”“You're the one who can't get it up! I can even raise dumbbells at my age!”Bennett was blinded by rage. What was more humiliating and degrading to a man than to be accused of being unable to get it up?Ruby Lamar burst out in anger. “Stop spouting your lies! My son had two sons! What do you mean he can't reproduce? Who are you? A madman? How dare to come into the Melvis family home and cause such a disgrace! You must be sick of living!”Alex gently shook his head. “That can only mean one thing, that those two grandchildren aren't yours. If you don't believe me, feel free to do a DNA test.”After a halt, he kicked Tucker again. “Alright, it's done. If you really are Bennett's son, you would've been dead. But since you aren't, I'm willing to let you go free. You can get out of here now!” If he were the Tucker from before, he would've taken this chance without hesitation. God knew how much he wished this was all a nightmare, but Alex's words hit home

Alex explained. “You need not fear me so much. I won't do much to you… for now. I just want to make one thing clear! Forty-five years ago, was it you who forced poisoned wine upon Yvonne Wilmer and Brittany Rockefeller?”His voice was sharp, clearly demanding an answer.After he was done, Ruby's legs started to shake uncontrollably, as if an entire mountain weighed on her shoulders. She could barely stand anymore.Lexia was planning to call in reinforcements from the Divine Constabulary and even more from Alaska to back Alex into a corner.However, at Alex's question, her thoughts were put to a halt.‘What is this situation?’She stared at Alex, the wheels turning in her head.What had happened back then… she remembered everything so vividly.Yvonne and Brittany had gone missing on a very stormy night. A typhoon warning was even called. He heard that the Red Guard had found new evidence of Yvonne working with the underground, and they wanted to arrest her for questioning. Ger

Lexia's eyes widened, and she stared at Alex in shock.“He… He's Madame Brianna’s son?”At that moment, Lexia went silent for a while, but Alex could hear her rapid breathing. "Look for someone named Nickolas. I don't know if he's still there, but if he is, perhaps he can give you answers."After saying that, she hung up.Putting down the phone, she took in large gulps of air. It was easy for a clever woman like her to figure out some things. She just never dared to believe it.***Putting down the phone, Alex's expression was closed, shuttered by his mother's words— ‘If there really was poison involved back then, who would be so cruel as to force a ten-year-old to drink it? Geronimo Melvis? That doesn't seem very plausible. Which father would force his own blood daughter to drink poison?’ "Is there anyone here named Nickolas?" Alex's body felt itchy. He was not good at controlling such murderous rage. His heart ached for his own mother. “Answer me!”He stomped his feet, a

Alex's palm collided with her cheek.“You’re the one who's in a hurry to end their lives!”Lexia glanced at Ruby and encouraged Nickolas to continue speaking, “As long as you stick to the truth, I'll let you make the choices.”“Thank you, Madame Lexia! This is how the situation happened. I fell asleep in the tool shed and heard Madame Ruby and Madame Yvonne walking in. Following them were the ancient iron guards.“I heard Madame Ruby accusing Madame Yvonne of being a spy for the underground. He wanted to poison her, but since she resisted, he had the guards hold her down and forced her to drink the poison.”“Afterward, I also saw Master Bennett forcing Lady Brianna to drink the poison. After they were done, they left, saying that they would take care of the bodies after they decompose.” “Since I felt indebted to Lady Brianna, I could not just stand by and watch them die. Good thing I had an antidote to the poison. After I fed it to them, I helped them to escape this family.” I
