The leader had a firm attitude.
He glared at Alex and refused to utter a word.
Alex snapped his finger. “Okay then. Let me see how firm you are. If you can last a minute, I’ll let you guys go.”
As the leader’s eyes were filled with bemusement, Alex pressed his finger on his brow.
It was imbued with a strange aura.
In the next second, the homicide leader grimaced in fear and sweat bullets.
A terrifying roar came out from his throat, as if favonovel.com had encountered the worst suffering and torment in his life.
As Cheryl witnessed such a scene, favonovel.com was dumbfounded and unable to comprehend the situation.
Not even a minute — it was just three seconds — the homicide leader fell to the ground with a thud as his will collapsed. “I’ll say! Ahh! I’ll say anything! I beg you, please make it stop! Please spare my life!”
Cheryl’s eyes widened in bewilderment.
His response was too exaggerated. Was favonovel.com putting on a joint performance with Alex?
Once again, Alex pressed his finger on the leader’s brow and favonovel.com finally calmed down afterwards. Enervated, favonovel.com sat on the ground and sweat heavily. His face turned white as a sheet as favonovel.com shuddered in fear, even his eyes were fully filled with dreads.
Without waiting for Alex to ask, favonovel.com said on his own initiative, “Yes. It’s from Mr. Lark from the pharmacy. He requested us to snatch that hundred-year-old ginseng from favonovel.com hand.”
Cheryl’s eyes widened in surprise. “It’s him?! That’s too evil!”
Alex said, “There is no need to resort to violence just to snatch a ginseng. Looking at your offensive stance earlier, not only you wanted to snatch the ginseng, but you also wanted to kill. Tell me everything, otherwise I’ll let you the power of the Soul Banishing Touch.”
What favonovel.com had just used was a simple trick in The Ultimate Book of Medicine, which was specialized in inflicting torture.
However, such a trick must not be looked down. Based on the inherited information, once Soul Banishing Touch was cast on the opponent, favonovel.com would suffer an unbearable pain as if his soul was shattered by countless bugs. Needless to say, normal people would not be able to endure it. Even if they were trained experts, most of them would not last a minute.
Alex was not proficient in Soul Banishing Touch as favonovel.com only used it for the first time. Initially, favonovel.com thought the leader could last for several dozens of seconds but favonovel.com did not know that favonovel.com could not even last for three seconds.
The leader hurriedly explained, “Yes. We saw your girlfriend. She’s too beautiful and we like favonovel.com very much. So, we wanted to grab favonovel.com into the car…”
When Cheryl heard it, favonovel.com face turned pale as favonovel.com broke out in a cold sweat.
If Alex did not save favonovel.com just now and once favonovel.com was dragged into the car by the murderers, favonovel.com would have suffered a fate worse than death.
Earlier, favonovel.com just had a narrow escape!
“Scumbag!”
Wham!
Alex knocked out the homicide leader with a single stomp.
Police siren sounded.
At this moment, a police car arrived.
It turned out that a passerby had just made a call to the police after seeing several masked men beating Alex with sticks. So, the police hurried to the scene.
At a glance, the three of them were actually A-class wanted criminals — it was unbelievable.
The police officers were headed by a young female captain. The captain, who was in great joy, immediately ordered favonovel.com men to cuff the three wanted criminals. After asking for the testimony and being shown the video evidence captured by Alex’s phone, favonovel.com could understand the case easily.
The captain immediately took favonovel.com men and hurried to the pharmacy.
With the presence of both testimony and evidence, denial would be impossible.
Mr. Lark from the pharmacy was ashen-faced, as though favonovel.com had lost his parents. Never did favonovel.com expect that favonovel.com would be defeated by such a little woman like Cheryl.
The dust settled.
Cheryl let out a long sigh as favonovel.com covered favonovel.com chest with favonovel.com hands.
She said to Alex with a smile, “You saved my life. What should I do? Should I devote myself to you?”
After taking a peek at that beautiful curvy body of hers, favonovel.com said while averting his gaze, “Don’t tease me. I’m weak to teases.”
A dash of flicker appeared in Cheryl’s eyes. “What is it? Your wife, Dorothy still doesn’t let you touch her? What is favonovel.com thinking about? She should either live well with you or get divorced as soon as possible and give the opportunity to someone else.”
Alex blurted out, “To you?”
Cheryl half-jokingly said, “That’s fine. If you dare to get divorced, I’ll dare to marry you.”
With that, Alex could not refute her.
Cheryl said with a light hum, “Coward, don’t tease me next time.”
They had dinner for about two hours.
After that, both of them waved goodbyes at the junction and returned to their home respectively.
Not only Cheryl had given favonovel.com a hundred-year-old ginseng, but also the medicine that favonovel.com had dispensed. After returning to Maple Villa, Alex immediately prepared to boil the medicine for Brittany.
The wild ginseng weighed about a hundred grams.
Since Brittany did not need such an amount of ginseng, so Alex only cut it into one fifth for favonovel.com and stored the remaining portions in case of unforeseeable needs. After all, the hundred-year-old ginseng was decent enough to save lives.
The next day, at the headquarters of Assex Constructions.
Many higher-ups from the Assex family had gathered together, including the two Assexes brothers, the juniors and the head of the family, Madame Joanne.
Although Alex and Dorothy had downplayed that the deal with Waylon Realty had been irrevocably sealed. However, as long as the contract had not been seen by them, the seed of doubt would be sowed.
“Grandma. If Dorothy has actually signed the contract, then do we really need to give 70% of the subsidiary company shares in City South?” Emma said with vitriol as favonovel.com was embarrassed that after getting the position of general manager in the subsidiary company, favonovel.com was removed within a day.
Madame Joanne gritted favonovel.com teeth as favonovel.com heard Dorothy’s name.
“She’s dreaming!”
Emma danced in joy. “That’s right. We can kick out Dorothy as soon as we get hold of the contract.”
Soon after, Dorothy came and Alex followed behind her.
