Chapter 306
His Lordship Alexander Kane
The courtyard lights danced in the darkness.
Five figures stood on the villaâs front stepsâfour behind, one ahead-staring down at Kelvin and his parents
with thickening scorn.
Leading the pack was none other than Marcus.
âMiss Briers, bet you didnât see this reunion coming!â
His eyes skipped over the yard, Kelvin, and his parents, fixating on Wanda standing just outside the door. A sleazy smirk played
on his lips. âI never wouldâve guessed how to get Miss Briers to grace my doorstep.
However, now,â he chuckled darkly.
With a swift motion, he gestured commandingly, âGet these two out of here, and bring Wanda inside!â
In a flurry of movement, bodyguards sprang into action. Two of them sliced through the ropes binding Kelvinâs parents and,
without a word, hustled them out the door.
Simultaneously, another group of guards ushered Wanda into the yard with brick steps. It was a seamless
operationâ-releasing some while seizing another.
The heavy metal gate groaned shut, sealing off one world from another with its imposing presence.
âDad, Mom!â Kelvin could not hold back any longer. He rushed to them, his arms wrapping around his parents
as he sobbed, âAre you okay? This is all my fault. I'm so sorry for putting you through this!â
His parents, overwhelmed by the ordeal, cried until they were nearly collapsing. âWhat's happening? What did
you do to Wanda?â
âWe might be safe, but what about Wanda? Sheâs in the clutches of Marcus Ledger now. He'll... He'll harm her.
You have to do something-please, save her!â
As Kelvin dabbed at his motherâs tears, he turned, desperation etched on his face, looking at the Porsche
parked behind him.
âMister Kane, Ray, my parents are out of danger. Itâs all on you now!â
Wanda was pushed into the courtyard by two towering Ledger family guards, standing isolated in the harsh glare of the spotlight.
Her face was pale, her petite frame shaking uncontrollably with fear.
She was aware that Alexander and Ray were nearby, but that did little to comfort her as she faced the infamous Marcus Ledger.
Could anyone assure her safety?
The Zabaleta Ledger family was a force that could not be shaken, and before Marcus, she felt like a defenseless lamb, utterly
powerless.

Marcus loomed at the top of the living room steps, his cruel smile wider than ever. âMiss Briers, you seem
fond of running. How about another try?â he taunted.
âStrip and make your way to the second-floor bedroom. We've got all night, and Iâm going to enjoy every moment of it,â he
sneered with a twisted joy.
Panic surged through Wanda, her heart pounding against her ribs. She could not think, could only run toward the back door of
the villa, her voice rising in a desperate plea, âSir Kane, save me, please save me!â
Sir Kane?
A flicker of confusion crossed Marcus's face, then anger. âCatch her!â he roared.
Like a trio of predators. Andrew, Hec, and Hunter sprang into action, closing the distance in a heartbeat, nearly
upon Wanda.
In a split second, as lightningâquick as their approach, something unexpected happened.
Aloud crash echoed through the night.
Amere ten meters away, the massive door, crafted from alloy steel, burst apart with a thunderous crash. It shattered like fragile
scrap metal, scattering debris across the sky. Amid the flying shards, seven or eight figures were flung to the ground in a chaotic
heap.
âWhat the...â
The three onlookersâ eyes widened in shock, and they stumbled backward, their hearts racing as they caught sight of the young
man standing in the doorway.
It was him!
The same guy who, back at Sunlight Club, casually outsmarted a burly, dark-skinned man, taking down two of the fighting
communityâs Grandmasters with ease, and even snipping off their thumbs.
Alexander, the formidable youth!
