Alexander wanted Theo Good to hear him as he was making the call. This retired archeologist had decided to cheat him out of the goods he had bought fair and square. He didn’t care that the classy-dressed customer wanted to pay $100,000 for it. The fact still remained that it was now rightfully his.Theo Good scoffed. “What exactly is this? Do you think you can call over your pals to come cosplay as some big shot to scare me? Fine, bring it on, young man! I’ll wait and see what show you can afford to entertain me with today. Just know that you are still going to end up in prison; I promise to make that your reality.”Alexander simply smiled at this old man. This was the reason why he wanted his wife and daughter out of the shop. The person he had called just now was Alan Butch – one of the three big bosses of the underground world in this city.There were three underground kings who ruled together, maintaining and controlling the channels that had been established to do all sorts of bu

The three big bosses of the underground world were currently bowing before Alexander, and the few customers in the antique shop couldn’t believe it.Alexander took a good look at the three big bosses before nodding his head in approval. “You weren’t late, so don’t worry about it. Get up.”“Yes, Sir Alexander!” The three men chorused before rising to their feet. Alan took a step forward. “Boss Alexander, please, tell us why you’ve called us here.”Theo Good was still shaken by the fact that he had just witnessed the three most fearsome men he knew bowing down to the man he had threatened. Fear gripped him to the point where he was sweating profusely as Alexander informed the big bosses what had happened between him and Theo Good.The classy-looking customer had slowly taken a few steps back, making sure that he wasn’t mistaken as an affiliate of the antique shop owner.Once Alexander had explained everything to the big bosses, the three men turned around to glare heatedly at the older

Lesley’s eyes suddenly widened and she grabbed Lucas’s arm lovingly. “It has to be Alexander and his father’s doing! There’s no one else as capable as them! After all, he did help my mom to bag her contract with Eckre Empire Headquarters as well!”Alexander Cross could only shake his head in astonishment as he waited to hear Lucas’s reply to this.Lucas Jerald was a little bit nervous as he glanced down at his girlfriend before shifting his gaze to the people around him. He knew very well that the contract that Eckre Empire Headquarters had granted Bygone Corporation through Fiona Blaine was not his father’s doing, and yet, he had swiftly claimed a glory that was not his on purpose.Now that his girlfriend and her family were asking him once again, he wouldn’t dare come clean now; it would be far too humiliating.Therefore, Lucas smiled as he stood up straight and nodded at the small audience. “It wasn’t really a big deal. My father’s influence in the business world is quite profound.

“Put away that phone. Do not call the police, got it?” Fisher McCall spoke sternly to the head of security. “As for these two, I’ll resolve the issue. They’re coming with me.”The head of security could only give in with a nod of approval. This was his superior after all. Fisher led Alexander and the finance personnel out of the security sector and they took the elevator up to the floor where the company manager’s office is located. Once they were gone, the head of security suddenly had a look of anger on his face. “Damn it! We almost got him.” He then retrieved his phone and dialed a number. “Sir, I’m calling to give you feedback on that operation.”The person at the end of the call was Edmund Porsche. “Talk to me, Head Security. Have you arrested that bastard, Alexander?” He laughed with a dark tone in his voice. He was alone in his office, sitting behind his desk with a sinister expression on his face. “I can’t wait to see him in jail.”The head of security couldn’t help but scra

The tall and muscular man turned to see who had just called me. “Alexander?! Alexander Cross is that you?!” His confused face morphed into a bright smile before he rushed over.Alexander laughed out as he also rushed to meet the man with a solid hug. He tapped the man’s back. “It’s been a while bro! I didn’t expect to see you here at all. What are you doing here?!”They ended the hug and they looked at each other to make sure they were physically alright. Both men are about the same height, but Eden Raven is a bit more muscular than Alexander.“Look at you, Alexander! You’re looking sharp! Damn, this suit looks expensive!” Eden Raven smiled brightly as he recalled his friend’s earlier question. “I came here to deliver a signed contract with another company.”“Nah, don’t bother about this.” Alexander waved off the compliment about his suit. “Are you leaving right now?” He got a nod from his friend. “Awesome! I was on my way out as well. Let’s catch up.”The two then walked out of the g

Alexander led Eden to the restaurant and Eden was shocked when he saw that the establishment was a very expensive one.“Dude, are you sure about this place?” Eden looked at Alexander with slight worry. “I’m not sure if I can afford it.”Alexander smirked at his old friend. “That’s okay; just leave it to me.”It was then that a man approached them. “Oh my goodness! It looks like neither of you guys have aged a day;”Eden and Alexander turned their gazes to find a slightly shorter and pudgy man heading toward them. “Guys, it’s me, Bruce Daniels!”“We know!” Eden and Alexander chuckled as they shook their heads.The three men came together and exchanged hugs and pleasantries.Bruce looked at the restaurant. “Woah, Alexander! This is where you want us to have dinner? I’m sorry, my guy, but I’m not sure I can afford even the cheapest meal here.Alexander clapped each hand on Bruce and Eden’s backs. “You guys shouldn’t worry about this. Let’s just go in and have an amazing night already.”E

Alexander waited with a cold face as the waiter left to call the manager. A few seconds later, a man with gray hair showed up.“Sir, this is the pathetic man who threatened me into calling you. I was practically bullied, Sir.” Eden raised an eyebrow. “Well, maybe my friend here wouldn’t have had to insist you call over your manager if you had done what you were supposed to do.” He turned to the manager. “Your waiter was very unprofessional in the way he regarded my friend here. Perhaps, you should consider getting a better hire.”Bruce nodded his head. “I second that. I also witnessed your waiter being utterly rude to my friend.”The manager didn’t look like he was in a good mood as he looked at Alexander, checking out his outfit thoroughly. “Your outfit looks quite legit, but I doubt it’s real.”Fiona laughed. “Of course, it’s not real. How would such a poverty-stricken man like that be able to afford the real deal?”Lesley became curious after hearing this, so she whispered to her

The world felt muted, the vibrant colors of life dulled to shades of gray. Alexander moved through his days like a ghost, the weight of Victoria’s death a crushing burden on his soul. The energy that had once defined him, the drive that had propelled him to the top of the corporate world, had vanished, replaced by a hollow emptiness.He found himself spending hours staring out the window of his penthouse, the sprawling cityscape a blur of meaningless lights. Sleep offered no respite, haunted by nightmares of Victoria’s final moments, her face contorted in pain, her voice a fading whisper.The Romano Conglomerate, once his pride and joy, now felt like a cruel reminder of everything he had lost. The board, sensing his instability, gently suggested a temporary leave of absence. He didn’t argue. He simply signed the papers, relinquishing control to a trusted lieutenant, and retreated further into his shell.“Alexander, you can’t keep doing this,” Jenifer said, her voice filled with concer
A Wedding Vow of Vengeance Chapter 128: Echoes of a Soul
The silence in the hospital room was deafening, broken only by the rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor. Victoria lay motionless, her face pale and serene, a stark contrast to the turmoil raging within Jenifer. The guilt, the grief, the crushing weight of responsibility threatened to suffocate her.“There has to be something we can do,” Jenifer whispered, her voice hoarse with desperation. She paced restlessly, her eyes darting around the room, searching for a glimmer of hope, a miracle.Alexander stood beside her, his hand resting gently on her shoulder, offering silent comfort. “The doctors have done everything they can, Jenifer,” he said, his voice filled with sadness. “There’s nothing more they can do.”“No!” Jenifer cried, shaking her head vehemently. “I can’t accept that. I won’t accept that. There has to be something. There just has to be.”Her gaze fell upon the ornate necklace she wore, the one that had triggered the initial body swap. The necklace, a relic from a forgotten

The air crackled with anticipation. Every eye in the Re-Zero Gala was fixed on Jenifer, waiting for her confession, for the revelation that would shatter the carefully constructed image of Isabella Romano. James, a smug satisfaction plastered across his face, watched from the sidelines, confident in his victory.Alexander squeezed Jenifer’s hand, a silent promise of unwavering support. He knew this was it, the moment of truth. He braced himself for the storm that was about to break.Jenifer stepped forward, her voice trembling slightly as she addressed the crowd. “I… I have something to tell you,” she began, her eyes scanning the faces in the audience. “Something that will change everything you think you know about me.”Suddenly, a commotion erupted near the entrance. Security guards scrambled, their faces etched with alarm. A figure burst through the crowd, pushing past the bewildered guests. It was Victoria Beckett, her face pale, her eyes wide with terror.“Alexander! Jenifer! Get
A Wedding Vow of Vengeance The Devil's Bargain
The revelation of Jenifer’s secret hung over them like a suffocating cloud. The initial shock had given way to a grim acceptance, but the fear of exposure, the potential fallout, remained a constant, gnawing presence. Alexander, true to his word, stood firmly by her side, offering unwavering support and love. But the weight of the world, it seemed, was about to come crashing down.The annual Re-Zero Gala, a glittering event celebrating sustainable technology and philanthropic endeavors, was fast approaching. It was a crucial event for the Romano Conglomerate, a chance to showcase their commitment to innovation and social responsibility. But this year, it felt like a trap, a stage set for a final, devastating act.The phone rang, shattering the uneasy silence that had settled over their penthouse. Jenifer answered, her hand trembling.“Isabella,” a voice rasped on the other end. It was James, his voice laced with a chilling calmness. “I trust you’re enjoying the calm before the storm.”
A Wedding Vow of Vengeance Chapter 125: Checkmate
The cryptic phone call hung in the air, a chilling premonition of the storm to come. Jenifer knew Marcus Lee was closing in, and the threat to expose her secret – the truth about the body swap – felt like a loaded gun pointed directly at her heart.The days that followed were filled with a gnawing anxiety. She found herself constantly looking over her shoulder, scrutinizing every interaction, every phone call, every email. The trust she had carefully cultivated felt fragile, threatened by the impending exposure.One evening, while working late in her office, Jenifer received an unexpected visitor: James Beckett. He stood in the doorway, his face a mask of barely controlled rage.“James,” Jenifer said, her voice tight. “What are you doing here?”“I know,” he said, his voice low and menacing. “I know everything.”Jenifer’s heart skipped a beat. “What are you talking about?” she asked, feigning ignorance.“Don’t play coy with me, Isabella,” James snarled. “Or should I say… Jenifer Carlso
A Wedding Vow of Vengeance Chapter 124: Scorched Earth
The prison walls might have confined Marcus Lee’s physical form, but they couldn’t contain his vengeful spirit. Even from behind bars, he orchestrated a campaign of economic sabotage, a scorched-earth policy aimed at crippling both the Beckett and Romano empires.The first strike hit Beckett Enterprises. A series of damaging leaks, revealing confidential product designs and strategic plans, surfaced online. The company’s stock plummeted, and competitors pounced, eager to exploit the vulnerability.“What the hell is going on?” Emily Beckett, now at the helm of her family’s company, shouted into the phone. Her voice was tight with panic. “Our stock is in freefall! We’re hemorrhaging money!”Jenifer, on the other end of the line, tried to remain calm. “We’re looking into it, Emily. It looks like a coordinated attack. Someone leaked sensitive information.”“Coordinated? Who would do this?” Emily demanded. “We’ve got enemies, sure, but nothing like this. This is… calculated. Surgical.”“We

The Romano Tower hummed with activity, but beneath the polished veneer, a silent war was brewing. James Beckett, fueled by ambition and resentment, had launched his attack.Jenifer, still struggling to navigate the complexities of corporate life, found herself increasingly drawn into the conflict. The board meetings were no longer just confusing; they were tense, filled with veiled threats and subtle power plays."Something's not right," she said to Alexander one evening, pacing in front of the panoramic windows. The city lights seemed to mock her unease.Alexander, engrossed in a stack of documents, barely looked up. "What do you mean?""The numbers," Jenifer said, gesturing vaguely. "They don't add up. There are discrepancies, inconsistencies. It's like someone's deliberately trying to sabotage the company."Alexander finally looked up, his eyes narrowed. "Sabotage? By whom?""I don't know," Jenifer admitted. "But I have a feeling it's connected to your father's death. Someone wants
A Wedding Vow of Vengeance Chapter 122: Echoes in the Grand
The board meeting had been a blur of jargon and power plays, leaving Jenifer feeling more lost than ever. Back in the penthouse, the city lights twinkled, mocking her confusion. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something was deeply wrong with Charles Romano’s death. The official story – a sudden heart attack – felt too neat, too convenient.“You’re quiet,” Alexander said, entering the living room. He carried a glass of amber liquid, the same one he always seemed to have in his hand after a long day.“Just… processing,” Jenifer replied, staring out the window. “That board meeting was like another language.”“You’ll learn,” Alexander said, taking a sip of his drink. “Or you can just look pretty and nod. Works either way.”Jenifer shot him a look. “I’d rather learn. But I’m also trying to figure out what happened to your father.”Alexander’s expression darkened. “The police are handling it.”“Are they?” Jenifer turned to face him. “Or are they just accepting the easy answer? A sudden
A Wedding Vow of Vengeance Chapter 121: Gilding the Cage
The penthouse suite at the Romano Tower was less a home and more a gilded cage. Floor-to-ceiling windows offered a breathtaking panorama of New York City, but Jenifer, trapped within Isabella’s body, felt more like a display piece than a resident.She stood awkwardly amidst the minimalist décor, a stark contrast to the cozy, cluttered apartment she'd once shared with Kain. The silence was deafening, broken only by the distant hum of the city below.Alexander entered, loosening his tie. “You seem… lost.”Jenifer bristled. “Lost? I’m standing in the middle of a room the size of my old apartment. How could I be lost?”He raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement flickering in his eyes. “A figure of speech, Isabella. Are you settling in?”“Settling in? I have a walk-in closet bigger than my first job. What do you think?” She crossed her arms, the silk of her borrowed dress feeling foreign against her skin.“I take it that’s a no.” Alexander walked towards the bar, pouring himself a drink. "Y
