âYour sister? You mean Jade Benmore wanted this to happen? Why did she do this? Whatâs wrong with
this womanâs head? Was she born evil? I just healed her leg, and sheâs already sending someone to kill
me? How the hell did she get the title of Five-star Warlord? Did she label herself as such?â Alex
Rockefeller fumed. Heâd never seen a woman like this.
The thoughts of a woman were as mysterious as a needle in the bottom of the ocean.
However, women like Jade Benmore really were one of a kind.
Nora Stewart slapped Alex across the face. âDonât talk about my sister like this!â
âShe was already going to kill me. Why canât I yell at her? What if I do it? If she has what it takes, she
should appear in front of me right now. I want to see if her face is as thick as her butt,â Alex yelled
angrily.
Nora was furious. âIf you have the guts, say this in front of my sister! Do you think she wants you to
die? Sheâs set her eyes on you,â she said.
âWhat?!â Alex was shocked.
âI⦠Iâm not going to sell my body!â Alex said.
âWhat are you thinking? Sheâs set her eyes on your decent medical skills. She thinks you have a lot of
potential, and she wants you to join Flying Eagles! Your talents wonât be wasted there. Youâll be able to
reach your fullest potential,â Nora uttered angrily.
âIs that why she sent this Maxwell guy to kill me, and youâd rescue me from behind? As such, Iâll end up
feeling grateful to the two of you, and Iâll hug her stinky foot. Even if it stinks, Iâll have to say it smells
fantastic. Is that it?â Alex nearly broke into laughter from his rage. âIâm sorry, but I canât accept an
outcome like this!â
Nora paused for a moment. âI didnât agree with it in the beginning either. However, now that youâve
killed Maxwell, thereâs no backing out! Iâll analyze this situation for you. Forget how Old Moon Devil will
react when he finds out that youâve robbed Luna Flores of her virginity. To begin with, Maxwellâs father,
Colton Lawrence, definitely wonât let you off the hook!
âColton isnât a kind person at all. He could only get the position of Left-wing Lieutenant because he
trampled on the corpses of others. This person will do anything to achieve his objective. Moreover, he
always makes sure he gets his retribution. Now that youâve killed Maxwell, do you think heâll let you go?
No way. Not only will he not let you go, but heâll even kill your family and everyone you care about.
Believe me, heâs capable of doing that!â Nora warned.
âSo, are you planning to tell Colton that I killed Maxwell?â Alex asked.
Nora bared her hands. âThat wonât be necessary! I admit that I set things up so that Maxwell would
come looking for you, but I was only speeding up the entire process! From the moment you slept with
Luna, none of this could be avoided! Colton recently acquired two Ascension Fruits from the ancient
force field. If Iâm not mistaken, those are for Maxwell. As such, Maxwell wouldnât have to wait until he
reaches Profound Mystic to sleep with Luna⦠In fact, we wonât even have to wait until that day. As long
as Colton or Old Moon Devil sees Luna, theyâll be able to tell that her virginity has been lost. Do you
think they canât find you?â Nora asked.
After a pause, Nora appeared concerned again. âMaxwell is Coltonâs beloved son. Perhaps, Colton had
done something to Maxwellâs soul. As soon as Maxwell died, Colton might have already found out
about it. This makes things even more problematic,â she said.
Countless solutions ran through Alexâs mind. However, if Colton really were that kind of person, Alex
would be in a passive situation.
Not only were the lives of Brittany Rockefeller and the others at stake, everyone on Claire Assexâs side,
as well as anybody close to Alex, would be in danger! Where could he hide with all these people?
Clearly, it was unrealistic. It was also impossible.
In the end, Alex sat on the bed. âYou people started this. You should have mentally prepared yourself
for this outcome,â Alex said.
âIâm going to give my sister a call. I donât know what to do either,â Nora said.
Nora made the phone call in front of Alex. Hence, Alex could overhear the conversation clearly.
âWhat? That little jerk killed Maxwell?â Jade yelled in surprise. âHow did he kill him?â
âHeâs unwilling to tell me. He said itâs a secret that canât be revealed,â Nora replied.
âIâll be there right away,â Jade said.
Knowing that Jade would be coming over immediately, Alex became worried that Yunoâs identity might
be exposed. Itâd be great if Jade could lock Yuno up, but if she couldnât, and Yuno ended up fighting
back forcefully, Phoebe Larsen would be the one getting hurt in the end. On the other hand, compared
to Jade, Alex placed more trust in Yuno.
Hence, he immediately carried Phoebe, who was in a deep slumber, out of the room. He had
temporarily placed her in the study.
