Dory reacted in such a way because that woman was Frostine Usoro, the most vicious woman within
the Usoro family. She had killed numerous people, even decimating more than five families in Starborn
City on her own. None of her targets had survived, not even their livestock or pets. Her methods were
so cruel that they would invoke nightmares just by hearing about it.
There was a saying within the city, better provoke the Grim Reaper than provoke the Venom!
The Venom was this woman in front of their eyes, Frostine.
âThe Venom Widow?â Alex asked as he stared at the young woman on the stairway.
It was then that Alexâs expression softened because he was able to feel his fatherâs Chi on this woman.
At the very same time, Frostine looked at Alex with the intense of eyes, as if looking at⦠A relative.
Such intensity made Alexâs face feel like it was burning up. However, the people in the store didnât
notice the change in their expressions.
The leader immediately reported to Frostine. âFifth Lady, this bastard came to cause a ruckus within
our store. Not only did he kill Miss Octavia, he even killed one of our guards. Please go back upstairs,
Fifth Lady. We will most definitely capture this man and let you decide his fate.â
Smack!
Frostine swung an arm. An illusion of a hand appeared in mid-air as the guard was slapped aside.
âGet lost!â
Frostineâs tone was as chilly as a snowstorm.
Everyone trembled upon hearing this, thinking that the Venom Widow must be so furious that she
would explode.
The slapped guard bowed nervously, not daring to complain one bit. He fell to his knees, begging. âIâm
so sorry, I was wrong, and I shouldâve known better. Please punish me, Fifth Lady!â
Hearts sank as they looked towards Alex and Bubbles sympathetically.
âNot only did they cause a scene at Treasure Trove, yet theyâre so unlucky as to have the Venom
Widow present as well.â
âGreat, guess the Venom Widow is about to diminish yet another bloodline.â
âHeâs just looking for a death wish! â
Dory, who was still on the ground, was so afraid that she passed out.
Just as everyone thought that the Venom Widow would snap and sentence Alex to death, she just
walked over to him barefooted. Her seductive eyes stared into his with a soft, endearing gaze. She
then spoke up in a quivering voice. âWhâ¦
Whatâs your name?â
âAlex Rockefeller.â
âRockefeller⦠He really is a Rockefeller!â
âThis is amazing!â
Frostine felt her heart jump. âLetâs talk upstairs!â
She walked behind Alex and grabbed onto the handles on his wheelchair, lifting him with ease. Still
barefooted, she walked upstairs joyfully.
In an instant, the two disappeared to the second floor. Everyone was shocked to see this, their mouths
agape.
âWhat was that about?â
âWhy did the Venom Widow bring those two upstairs? Shouldnât she have killed him with one slap?â
âAnd why does it feel like the widow knows that guy? And did you see her expression? Itâs like she
found her lover.â
Someone then spoke up, âI heard the Fifth Lady of the Usoro family is extremely moody. She has an
odd temper as well. She would often use living people in her experiments, so itâs impossible for them to
be lovers. I think the Fifth Lady actually thought she found a good subject, which is why she looked so
excited just now.â
With this, everyone thought they had figured it out and sighed with pity. Being experimented on by the
Venom Widow was way worse than death.
A guard pointed towards Dory, who had fainted. âBrother, how should we deal with this girl?â
Just as the guard was about to speak, Frostineâs voice came from upstairs again. âWatch over that girl
with care. Donât be rude to her.â
âUhmmâ¦â
âYes, Fifth Lady!â
