Chapter 413
His Lordship Alexander Kane
Guided by two security guards, Frank stood at the doorway of the office on the top floor. He rubbed his knees that had gone sore
from kneeling before cautiously pushing the door open.
It felt like a nervous university graduate attending their first job interview.
âMister Kane, Miss Chesire, I apologize for the intrusion. Please forgive me,â he said, carefully
choosing his words despite knowing that Alexander was the son-in-law of the Chesire family and
Amberâs husband.
He slowly raised his head, finally seeing Alexanderâs face. Shock overtook his face instantly.
In his desperate plea to the Redwine family, he knelt in the lobby of the office building every day. waiting. Unfortunately, he had
never seen Alexanderâs true face up until this moment.
To his surprise, Alexander was remarkably young, only a few years older than himself.
It was hard to imagine that this peer, not much older than him, not only created the forbidden
territories of Olâ Mare and Zabaleta but also killed his younger brother, Owen. Alexander even
killed nine Grandmasters and instilled fear in the three major families.
At this moment, Alexander and Amber were sitting on the reception sofa in the office, appearing
like any ordinary young couple. If there were any differences, it was in their eyes.
Alexanderâs eyes were slightly brighter than others, but aside from that, there was nothing
unusual
âAre you done staring at me?â From the moment Frank entered, Alexander had been staring into his eyes. He said softly. âI'll
allow you to say three sentences. You have one minute, starting now.â
Frankâs heart trembled. He immediately bowed and clasped his hands in a respectful gesture.â Thank you, Mister Kane, for
giving me this opportunity.â
âThatâs the first sentence.â As Alexander said this, he slowly raised one finger, his face devoid of
expression. âYou have two more sentences.â
Frankâs face stiffened for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. Taking a deep breath, he spoke slowly and deliberately. âAll
hundredâand-three members of the Redwine family swear allegiance to you and are willing to be your workhorses, with no
regrets for life!â
âVery clever, very decisive.â Alexander laughed after a few seconds. He looked at Frank with a playful gaze. âImpressive
performance. Now, you can say a few more sentences.â
Maintaining his posture on the ground, Frankâs voice became even more respectful. âMy two
brothers offended you, Mister Kane, causing more harm than good. They've placed the Redwine family in an inevitable situation
of death.
âI donât know how strong you are, but I do know that unless the entire Redwine family surrenders, there is only one pathâ
annihilation. This is the only chance for the Redwine family, and it's my
only chance!
âI hoped to become your representative in the North, wishing for your success!â
This time, Alexander genuinely smiled.
âYou're intelligent, ambitious, and brave. Unfortunately, youâve overestimated the Redwine family
and, more importantly, yourself.â
He looked down at Frank, faintly smiling. âUsing me to seize the position of the Redwine family head, using my name to swallow
up other northern families, and seeking my help when facing
formidable enemies?
âYour plan sounds good, but have you forgotten one crucial thing? Why would I help you?â
Frankâs head buzzed, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. All his scheming had been
completely exposed by Alexander.
I
I...â He knelt on the ground, his mind racing, and finally gritted his teeth. âI dare not deceive you, Mister Kane. Indeed, thatâs my
plan: using the Redwine family as a foundation, growing and expanding, like a dragon soaring.
âI want to be like Roslyn and become your right-hand man, a hero in the North. Apart from this. I
have no ulterior motives.â
Alexander remained indifferent. Judging any other ulterior motives based solely on Frankâs words was impossible. It was certain
that if Frank had been in charge of the Redwine family from the beginning, it would not have fallen into its current state.
âYour one minute is up.â Alexander withdrew his gaze, picked up the tea on the coffee table, and said. âThe Redwine family can
survive, and you can leave alive. Just donât let me see any member of your family in the Zabaleta and Ol Mare regions.
âNow, get lost!â
Frank did not dare to linger for even a second longer. He quickly got up from the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He bowed deeply to Alexander and Amber, and he briskly
walked toward the office door.
Just as he was about to leave, his steps hesitated slightly. He turned, bowing once again, his voice firm. âMister Kane, I will
prove my capabilities. Just like Roslyn, I am definitely qualified to

be your representative in the North.â
After speaking, without any further delay, he turned and swiftly departed.
âAlexander?â
Amber, who had remained silent until Frank disappeared, finally spoke softly. Leaning against Alexanderâs chest, she blinked and
asked, âWhy does he think he can be compared to Roslyn? Are there many girls with both talent and beauty like Roslyn in the
world?â
Alexander chuckled silently, gently kissing Amberâs forehead. His gaze seemed a bit trance-like.
Talent and beauty combined, with intelligence and strategic prowess. Of course, there were girls like that, but there was indeed
one who could match Roslyn, or perhaps even exceed her. That was Callie Xanthos.
