On the road, Madame Claire Assex was talking to Alex Rockefeller in excitement. âAlex,
I canât believe youâre Stone Gambling Prince. Youâve kept it a fine secret. With such
amazing abilities, you must have started out a long time ago. Why did Dorothy have to
work so hard to run a company? Why donât we go stone gambling later? Weâll earn lots
of money. What do you think, my good son-in-law?â
All of a sudden, Alex had turned into a good son-in-law.
âMother, I was just lucky that day. Did you really think I was a stone gambling expert? If I
were to go stone gambling again, Iâm afraid you might not even have pants to wear,â
Alex said.
When Madame Claire heard this, she felt like a deflated balloon.
But quickly, she continued, âWhat about the jadeite? I donât believe what you told Mr.
Lee.
You had moved out for a long time when that happened.â
âI sold it,â Alex said.
âWhereâs the money?â Madame Claire asked.
âI gave it to my mother.â
âWhat? Did you give all of it to your mother? Am I not your mother-in-law? How could
you not give me a single cent? Such a good son-in-law you are,â Madame Claire
snapped, obviously furious.
âMother, my mother-in-law intends to do great things with that money. Sheâll be using it
for business. What would you use it for? Youâd either spend it on stocks or buy all sorts
of useless stuff. You even went stone gambling after watching other people do it. Iâll tell
you, you are not allowed to go again. Honey, youâre not allowed either! Youâll lose nine
times out of ten. If that happens, our family will go bankrupt. Do you understand?â Lady
Dorothy said.
âYes, honey!â Alex made a verbal promise, but he was thinking about when he could go
gambling again in his heart.

Meanwhile, at the Assex familyâs place, Madame Joanne was with Anderson Assex and
his daughter.
âGrandma, you didnât get to see the poor state Madame Claire Assex was in. Her nose
was bruised, and her face, swollen up.
She was even howling like a dog on the ground.
It felt great! Moreover, we destroyed everything in her house. Haha! Iâd like to see where
else they can move to,â Lady Emma Assex gushed enthusiastically.
Madame Joanne seemed filled with excitement. âGood. We need to teach these b*tches
a lesson.â
Lady Emma suddenly took something out of her pocket. âGrandma, look what I found.
Itâs a pearl necklace. I remember Madame Claire used to wear it, and she treated it like
a treasure. Iâve taken it away. Itâs a gift for you, Grandma! Madame Claire doesnât
deserve something so fine. You should wear it, Grandma.â
Lady Emma joyously helped Madame Joanne put it on. âIt looks beautiful. It really
doesnât seem out of place,â she complimented.
Madame Joanne chuckled. âMy dear granddaughter, youâre the best.â
But at that moment, Tony Lee charged into the house with a group of uniformed
subordinates.
Tony waved his hand. âArrest them all! â he said.
Madame Joanne was shocked. âItâs you, Mr. Lee. What are you people doing here?
Who are you arresting?â
Alex, who came in after Tony and his team, glanced at the pearl necklace around
Madame Joanneâs neck. He sneered. âWho else could they arrest? of course, itâs you,
you old thief. Iâve learned something new today. Could it be the case where all your
wealth is the result of theft? Does it feel good wearing someone elseâs necklace? Good.
It wonât be a necklace youâll be wearing now but a pair of handcuffs instead,â said Alex.
Tony gave the order, and his subordinates immediately subdued all three members of
the Assex family.
âYouâve been suspected of burglary, trespassing, assault, and vandalizing private
property. There is a particularly large amount of money involved here. You are under
arrest!â
âArrest all of them and bring them back!â
âClick!â
When a pair of handcuffs were placed around Madame Joanneâs wrists, her eyes rolled
upward, and she passed out.
