Chapter 6
His Lordship Alexander Kane
âHer daughter is in the hands of the Dorvall family now. Letâs see if she dares to refuse Elliot...â
Amid the banter and mockeries, Amber cried and trembled. She sobbed silently, unable to make a sound. She dared not to
argue, only pleading with sign language to express her desperation.
âWhy are you crying? Let me make you smile,â Elliot sneered, reveling in the humiliation. âIf you donât serve me well, you and
your daughter are in for a rough time!â
Amberâs trembling body swayed, and her beautiful face turned as pale as a sheet.
The shame, helplessness, and despair were too overwhelming!
âHurry up! The guys are all here, eager to watch the show!â Elliotâs gaze burned with increasing desire as he focused on Amber.
âMove quickly. Donât keep the guys waiting, or you and your daughter will pay the price!â
Amberâs spirit was crushed as she moved forward like a lifeless doll. She took a step closer, and her knees slowly bent to the
floor...
Clip!
It was not the sound of her knees hitting the ground, but someone had grabbed Amberâs wrist just as she was about to kneel.
The hand was gentle, warm, yet strong altogether.
It was Alexander!
Cradling Olivia in his arms, Alexanderâs eyes never left Amber. A thousand words welled up in his heart, but they all condensed
into one sentence.
âlm here.â
âWho is he?!â
Initially taken aback by Alexander's sudden appearance, Elliot soon boiled over with anger. He was infuriated that Alexander
dared to ruin his moment.
âElliot!â
Hurried footsteps echoed chaotically from the entrance of the VIP lounge, and about seven security guards rushed toward Elliot.
One of them even pointed angrily at Alexander and shouted, âElliot, this man barged in without a word! We couldnât stop him, and
we couldnât catch up!â
The entire lounge burst into a frenzy. The youngsters lounging with Elliot jumped to their feet. Not only that, but a few beefy men
with tattoos, who appeared to be Elliot's bodyguards, also rushed to surround Alexander.
Even so, Alexander remained unfazed as he continued to gaze at the woman before him. He watched the tears welling up in her
eyes, the timidness and surprise on her face, and the mixed emotions that stormed within herâconfusion, vulnerability, and
shock.
Alexander looked at Amber, and she looked at him and Olivia in his arms.
âYou recognize me, donât you?â Alexander raised a hand and gently stroked Oliviaâs little head as he muttered to Amber, âYouâve
given me a beautiful, adorable daughter. Thank you. And...Iâm sorry for being so late.â
Amberâs lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face. Overwhelmed by the sudden rush of emotions, even her breathing
became unsteady. Her hands fidgeted with her clothes, and she attempted incomplete sign language gestures several times.
Finally, Amber gave up. She pointed first to Olivia in Alexanderâs arms, then to her own heart before making a hugging motion.
Then, she collapsed to the ground, sobbing silently, her arms wrapped around her knees.
âI understand sign language,â Alexander uttered as he locked eyes with Amber. His tears welled up as he moved closer to
Amber, helping her up.
âYou told me to leave quickly, that this place is dangerous. You said I shouldnât worry about you, to take Olivia and go, to protect
ourselves. You also said you've always remembered me and been thinking of me...â
Amberâs delicate frame trembled, and tears rolled down her cheeks. She was surprised that Alexander understood sign
language, even more baffled when he understood the incomplete gestures she made before.
However, she could not understand why he was not running away.
âI was wrong,â Alexander apologized, his gaze mixed with regret and anger. âZoe deceived me for a whole five years, and if it
weren't forââ
âIf it weren't for you, motherfucker!â Elliot suddenly roared, cutting off Alexanderâs words. He pointed at Alexanderâs, his face
twisted with malice. âI almost didnât recognize you! But itâs just you, the Chesire familyâs son-in-law! How dare you ruin my good
time?! I'm going toââ
Elliot abruptly fell silent.
Alexanderâs face darkened, and his hand shot out like lightning in the blink of an eye. He grabbed, yanked, twisted, and shook
Elliotâs chin.
Crack!
Elliot's jaw dislocated, and his teeth clamped down, severing half his tongue!
Then, Alexander launched a powerful kick at Elliotâs abdomen.
Even though he looked strong, Elliot was easily sent flying back a few meters as if he weighed nothing, knocking over several
luxurious massage chairs.
Elliot squirmed on the ground, crying in agony as his broken tongue spewed blood.
Everyone, including Amber, was left in shock.
Olivia was so frightened that she immediately cried.
The sight was simply ruthless!
Overwhelmed with fear and despair, Amber began to sob uncontrollably, desperately shoving at Alexanderâs arms. She wanted
Alexander to run away from this place immediately. After all, this was the Dorvall familyâs territory; they were all Elliotâs men!
âDon't be afraid,â Alexander assured Amber calmly. âAs long as you're willing, I'll eliminate all of them. Those who dishonor my
wife and daughter will face no mercy.â
This was not an empty threat but the unyielding declaration of the Lord of War.
After all, how could these despicable people stand a chance against him?
