‘He does not deserve it; let me have it instead!’ thought Wilson Jordan.Alex Rockefeller nodded. “One hundred times is a lot. I will let you off easy this time. Saying it once is enough.”He then took out his bank card and gave it to the saleswoman. “Swipe away!”Instantly, the saleslady got to work. The company had placed a lot of attention on selling a two million dollar car, thus making the transaction process easier. It was not long before the purchase went through.Beep!The sound of a successful payment made.The saleslady handed Alex his bankcard and various receipts in excitement. “This is yours, brother. Please keep them safe. I will get to it right away. Be back in a half-hour!”Beatrice Assex was startled. “How...how.. .did you get so much money?”Alex smirked. “Well, well, Beatrice Assex. Can I count on you to keep your promise, especially as the campus belle of California State University? Hm, I wonder what will happen if news about you breaking promises starts sp

“Princess Fleur? I do not know of any dumb princess here. Get out of my way!” Alex Rockefeller snorted.The bald guy became livid. “You insulted Princess Fleur!”To which Alex smiled, “Who knows, that bitch of a princess? Why is she looking for me? Perhaps she is an escort at the club? Sorry, I am not interested.”“Get him, brothers!”Alex let out a curse and channeled his inner energy. The next second he was right in front of the bald guy.Smack!He slapped him, right across the face, with full force.The bald guy did not expect Alex to take the offense and attack him first. He did not have time to react and was instantly on the floor, hacking out a few bloody teeth. His face had blown up, swollen like a pufferfish. After putting one down, Alex did not wait. Instead, he charged toward the next person.“Argh!”“Get our weapons! Surround him!”A few went back to their cars and got batons, sticks, and blades. Upon their return, however, a few of their comrades were lying on t

Alex Rockefeller lifted the bald guy by his collar and said, “You have to pay for the damages, three million dollars!”“Um, well, I do not have that much money!”“Perhaps we have to pay Princess Escort a visit then!”Shoving the tied-up bald guy into his BMW M8, Alex pulled out the embedded machete from the window and punctured the deployed airbags.Vroom!The engines revved to life.Fortunately, although somewhat wrecked, it was still drivable.Nudging the Volkswagen out of his way, Alex drove the M8 away from the accident site, headed straight for Princess Fleur. His curiosity was piqued. Who exactly was Princess Fleur?On his way there, the car made all sorts of noises, its components falling apart as he drove along. It was quite a sight for onlookers and had attracted plenty of attention, more so than a brand-new BMW would.“Gosh, isn’t that an M8? What a pity!”“Seems like a newly-bought car too, even the license plate is not up yet. Hold on...Beatrice, could it be you

The lady’s heel smashed into Alex Rockefeller’s shoulder.Yet, he seemed not at all affected.As the Force engaged its self-defense measures, it almost dislocated her ankles.The next moment, Alex grabbed hold of her feet and lifted her up.It was a funny sight to behold.The moment she leaped forward, she instantly regretted her decision. She totally forgot that she was wearing a dress. At that very moment, it was as embarrassing as it could get. She fought back with all her might but faced Alex, a strong, undefeatable character; her actions were nothing but a scratch on the back for him. He grasped her waist and slammed her down on a table nearby.Bam!A loud thud could be heard.Fortunately, she shielded her face from the impact with her hands. Otherwise, that face of hers would be gone.That being said, her chest hit the edge of the table hard upon impact, and she winced in pain.Pushing her down, Alex gave her a mighty slap on the back. A loud crackle was heard, and a

He knew better. After all, Lord Lex Gunther revered Alex Rockefeller, a close friend’s offspring, according to him. However, he had zero knowledge of Alex’s actual identity.“What’s up? Why did you come?” asked Princess Fleur.“My, I almost screwed things up. Lord Lex passed out suddenly.”“What?!” Princess Fleur shrieked. “Go, we need to get to Hell’s Angels now!”She dashed out, limping a little, and quickly got into her Lamborghini.Following right behind her was Alex, who got into the passenger seat.“Why are you here? Get off my car!” She was annoyed.Alex sat unperturbed. “Start the engine; we are going to see your Father.”“What has it got to do with you?”“You will know when we get there.”The Lamborghini sped away, leaving nothing but dust trails behind.Half an hour later, they arrived at Hell’s Angels.As soon as the car was parked, Princess Fleur sprang out.“Where is Father?”“In the room by the backyard. Mr. Jakob is currently tending to him.”Alex followed

Princess Fleur looked bewildered. “Little demon? Where?!”“Right in front of you, it’s looking right into your eyes!” said Alex Rockefeller.He was curious about why he did not freak out since this was his first encounter with something like this. Perhaps, after acquiring the Ultimate Book of Medicine’s wisdom, he gained the experience and knowledge of countless ancestors, as if he experienced it himself. Princess Fleur indeed felt an unknown being stroking her face at the moment.“Argh!”She screamed and leaped onto Alex’s back, clinging onto him as if her life depended on it.Alex felt a soft sensation on his back and a pair of slender arms wrapped around his waist. For a short while, he thought of succumbing to the temptation.“Lady, I am not your husband. Keep your hands off me.” Alex patted her on the back. Cheekily, it was the same spot where she was injured just previously.Princess Fleur was embarrassed. After a moment of awkwardness, she hurriedly jumped down.Once s

Afterward, Lord Lex Gunther was talking to Alex Rockefeller, with nothing but surprise in his voice. “Just how did you do what you did then, sir?”“I learned it from a wandering gypsy back when I was still in school. It’s really nothing to be proud of, nothing to brag about.” Alex smiled.Lord Lex added, “Sir, you are one-of-a-kind and truly destined to do great things in the future!”“Oh gosh, stop with the flattering.” Alex rolled his eyes.“I was just telling the truth,” replied Lord Lex.As the conversation progressed, Princess Fleur’s name was mentioned. She was also known as Waltz Fleur.Lord Lex had two adopted sons and a daughter. They were Azure Storm, Clay Ember, and Waltz Fleur, also known as Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s main battle force in the underworld—the Three Great Chieftains and they all possessed incredible fighting prowess.“I see.”“Sir, are you interested in Waltz? Should I send her your way?”“No, no, hold on. I am at my wit’s end with my wife, I need

Half an hour later, Alex Rockefeller arrived at Maple Villa in his new BMW M8.The previous wreck was left behind at the dealership.After some inspection, the staff found the main components of the car to be functioning as intended. It was as good as new after some overhaul.Upon Alex’s departure, a small crowd quickly gathered around Chloe Zea, with envy and jealousy plastered all over their faces.“Chloe, you are so lucky today! That is at least a hundred thousand dollars in commission for you!”“Where should I go to meet such a generous man?”“You should keep in touch. He is such a young guy and a handsome one too! If you manage to entice him, your life is set!”Chloe’s eyes twinkled as she started fantasizing.It was two o’clock in the afternoon. California’s West Hill Cemetery.Also the worst cemetery in the state. Run-down and neglected.Alex and his mother, Brittany Rockefeller, stood in front of a desolate tombstone.The founder of the titular Rockefeller Group, wit

Bill Rockefeller had no prior knowledge of Alex and Brittany Rockefeller’s presence.He arrived at six in the evening.Compared to a few days ago where he looked glum and morose after receiving a slap on the face from Lord Lex Gunther, Bill was a completely different man today. He was in high spirits and laughed as he entered the room. “Gavin! What’s up with you? Really rare of you to invite me for a drink, eh!”He then saw Alex standing at the side.His smile faded from his face. “Traitor, what are you doing here?”Bill had the shock of his life the other day and pushed all blame onto Alex, seeing that he was still a good-for-nothing brat.Alex looked straight ahead and remained silent.Instead, Brittany spoke, “Father, Alex is still your grandson. How can you say those things to him?”“Ah! Brittany...You’re alive?”Bill was startled.“Indeed, I am. You don’t seem too happy about this, though?”Returning to his senses, Bill’s expression darkened as he snapped angrily, “The

Alex Rockefeller quickly intercepted and grabbed Bill by the hand mid-air.He glared and sneered. “Old fool, enjoy the last days of standing up. Your happy days are numbered.”Earlier, he observed Bill Rockefeller having a serious case of blocked arteries in his brain. It wouldn’t be long before he would suffer a stroke and become bedridden.To say Bill was mad was an understatement. He left in a rage.Gavin Cole sighed, “I have no idea why he is in such a bad mood. You all are a family, aren’t you? Don’t worry, Brittany. I’ll talk to him.”Brittany remained silent.Brittany and Alex wanted to meet Bill to find out his sentiment, but the response was even worse than expected.Bill did not take the death of William Rockefeller seriously. His attitude toward Brittany and Alex was atrocious. The truth did not matter. All he wanted was for them to leave the Rockefeller family, like trash being swept out of the house.It started drizzling when they left Cole Residence. The autumn
