Annalise would rather die than believing that a useless man like Alex could defeat all
the disciples in Budweiser Martial Arts Center.
For Michelleâs sake, Alex raised his hand to stop Azure from beating Annalise up. âSheâs
just a child. You donât have to get so angry!â
Azure nodded. âWhere is Robert Downie? Ask him to get his *ss out here. Otherwise,
Iâm going to destroy the entire Budweiser Martial Arts Center.â
Facing Azure, who was intimidating, everyone from Budweiser Martial Arts Center could
not utter a word but they all looked away in fear.
âMy uncle is not in,â Annalise finally
said.
âGive him a call. He has one hour to make it back,â Alex said plainly.
Annalise gritted her teeth, but in the end, she still called her uncle.
âUncleâ¦â
Just as she said the word, Azure snatched her phone away. âMr. Downie, you have one
hour to get back to Budweiser Martial Arts Center. If you donât get back within an hour,
your martial arts center will be gone.â
âWhat?â
Robert, who was having tea while visiting his friend outside, nearly puked the
tea in his mouth when he heard Azureâs words.
âWho are you?â Robert asked.
âIâm Azure Storm from Thousand Miles,â Azure said.
âDo you mean Azure Storm from Thousand Miles Conglomerate?â Robert was
dumbfounded. âMy Budweiser Martial Arts Center has never done anything to your Thousand Miles
Conglomerate. What is the meaning of this?â
âIt means you have messed with someone you shouldnât. Remember, you only have an
hour.â Azure crushed the phone right after finishing his sentence. A perfectly fine Apple
smartphone ended up being crushed into pieces by him.
Annalise nearly choked on her own breath.
This man was way too arrogant and domineering. Even her uncle, Robert Downie,
wasnât that arrogant like him.
However, people eventually came to their senses after hearing Azureâs words.
âIs he really Azure Storm from Thousand Miles Conglomerate?â
âAzure Storm, one of the Three Great Chieftains of Californiaâs underworld?â
âOh⦠My god!â
âWho did Jake mess with? Even Azure Storm, the Great Chieftain, has to call him
masterâ¦â
Right then, everyone began looking at Alex differently.
However, Alex had not made a move since the beginning. Instead, he kept his arms
behind him and stood completely still, giving a grandiose impression as if he was a
majestic mountain that they had to look up at.
Meanwhile, there were still fingerprints on Annaliseâs face from the slap earlier. She
could still feel the burn.
However, her impression of Alex hadnât changed. She still only
felt disgust and anger toward him, and she didnât believe he truly had any capabilities. In
her mind, he must have done something to trick Azure.
***
While waiting, Alex received a call from Dorothy.
Alex dared not make her wait The imposing aura around him immediately faded away.
He donned a gentle expression on his face and said to the phone, âHoney, what is it?â
Bang!
Several people from Budweiser Martial Arts Center fell on their buttocks as they were
surprised by Alexâs sudden change of demeanor.
Annalise, on the other hand, felt even more certain that Alex was a kept man who lived
off his wife as she could not sense anything that resembled a fighter on him. He was
only good at putting on ostentatious acts and bullying weak persons. A jerk like Alex
was nothing but mud on the ground if he didnât have help from Azure.
Annalise now looked at Alex with an even more disdained expression on her face.
However, Alex didnât care about how others looked at him at all as he continued
speaking with Dorothy on the phone.
âYou finally got your phone back. You must have gone to see that pretty doctor again.
Did she forcefully kiss you this time?â Dorothy asked.
âHoney, thereâs no reason to be jealous. Donât you know what kind of person I am?
Everyone in the world knows how much I love you!â Alex exclaimed.
âUgh!â Annalise felt nauseated.
Indeed, this was exactly how a kept man would behave. Everyone from Budweiser
Martial Arts Center awkwardly looked at each other, even Azure had an odd expression
on his face.
