All Chapters of War God’s Gentle Vow: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Drake burst out laughing the moment Alexander finished speaking. Zhou Fen shook his head slowly, the way a man does when he has decided he is done being patient. "Kid." His voice was quiet but had an edge to it. "Who exactly do you think you are? I have been practising medicine since I was eight years old. I am an old man now, and I could not save him." He gestured at Robert's still form on the bed. "But you — born yesterday — want to stand here and play the hero?" Drake laughed again, longer this time. Zhou Fen wasn't finished. "I'll tell you what. If you somehow wake this man up, I will get on my knees and call you Grandpa. I will count it out a hundred times. Then I will become your disciple." He folded his arms, satisfied with himself. Another laugh from Drake, loud and easy. Elena looked up at Alexander and gave a small, quiet shake of her head. Don't. You'll only embarrass yourself. Alexander's hand found her arm again. "I told you to trust me." The relatives watched in

The man stepped forward, rolling one fist slowly inside the other palm, like he was warming up something that had been resting for a long time."Kid." His voice was deep and unhurried. "This one punch — you should feel honored. I don't waste it on ordinary people." He looked Alexander over from head to foot. "But today I'm in a generous mood. Think of it as a privilege. At least you'll die knowing what a real hit feels like."“Is that so?” Alexander said calmly.Nadia’s feet shifted on the floor. What kind of arrogant man is this? she thought. You’re staring death in the face, yet you still dare to brag. She looked at him with clear disgust. Thank God the bodyguard I found for Elena is already nearby. This kid should just pray he arrives on time… if not, he is doomed.“Stop it, Alexander,” Elena said quietly. "Don't go any further," she said quietly to him. "This is not a bluff. This man has a real record. He is not someone to take lightly.”She gently pulled Alexander behind her, the

Alexander took one step toward the door."Stop."He paused.Elena's voice was calm and unbothered. "Where exactly do you think you're going? And who permitted you to leave?" She let a beat pass. "Is this how you were trained? Walking out on your boss?"Alexander turned. "You have a new bodyguard now. I didn't think there was a reason for me to stay," he explained, trying to make a point."And who told you I don't need you anymore?"Nadia's face tightened. "Elena. What are you saying? You're seriously keeping this man around?""Exactly," Clara said."Elena, send him back to wherever you found him," Margaret said. "We are done with this.""That is enough." Robert's voice cut across the table. "Are we here to eat or to argue?" He nodded toward the door and the housemaid moved quickly, arranging the meal on the table. Plates were set, food was laid out, and one by one everyone found their seats.Everyone except Alexander.He stood where he was. "You know what — I have something important

The Voss residence sat behind tall iron gates, the kind that made it clear visitors were not expected to walk in. Elena arrived with Nadia on one side and Andrew on the other. Before they had taken three steps from the car, a guard was already in front of them. "Who are you, people? What brings you here?" Elena kept her voice steady. "I'm Elena Carter. CEO of Carter Group. I'm here to see your employer." "He's not expecting anyone. Did he invite you?" "It's urgent. Please let us through." The guard studied her for a moment, then held up a hand. "Wait here." He stepped to the side and made a call to one of his colleagues inside. "There's someone at the gate asking to see the boss. Says her name is—" He glanced at Elena. "Elena Carter," she said. "Elena Carter is her name. She has two others with her. One woman, one man." Inside, the guard relayed the message to Harrison directly. "Sir, a young woman named Elena Carter is at the gate. Two people with her." Harrison turned the n

The door burst open. Ryan paused for a moment, chest heaving, fury running hot through every part of him. “Tell me I shouldn’t kill all of you,” he said, his voice low and tight . “You are supposed to make sure no one interrupts me having my fun. Any message can wait till I’m done here.” He turned around and bark. “Get ou—” The word died in his throat. A stranger was standing there. Calm. Arms loose. Looking at Ryan like he was the one who didn’t belong. "I think," Alexander said, "you're the one who needs to get out." Ryan stared at him. He nodded slowly — this kid had a death wish. But then another thought pushed through the anger. How did he get in? He had four men outside that door. He climbed off the bed and stood up. “I don’t know how you managed to get in here,” he said, pointing at Alexander. “But you just made the biggest mistake of your life.” "You should have found out how I got in before you started making threats," Alexander said. Ryan's jaw tightened. "Okay. You'
