Chapter 45
Chapter 0045 After their lunch break, Alexander drove Amber straight to the new project’s construction site. “What did my mom say to you?” asked Amber curiously.
As her daughter, Amber knew Susanne was not easily impressed. She did not recognize Alexander as her son-in-law, especially since he married into the family.
Oddly enough, Susanne herself called Alexander for a ‘chat’ after they ate.
“She didn’t say much. We were just casually chatting.” Alexander replied and grinned playfully. “Though, she did mention that we should consider having a second child!”
Amber’s face turned red immediately. She bit her lip, blushing as she said, “Thank you for what you’ve done these past few days, Alex.”
Alexander chuckled. “I should be the one thanking you for giving a wanderer like me a true home.” He meant every word. He was ready to spend a lifetime repaying her kindness.
In the distance, a large crowd had gathered at the construction site. The crowd was divided into two groups, and it seemed like they hada
standoff.
The scene was chaotic and noisy.
Alexander frowned as he observed the situation. The car came to a stop, and Amber hurriedly rushed over. Alexander quickly followed her.
“What's going on?”
Not far away, the site supervisor was frantically waving his arms. They had signed the contract and were obligated to start building the factory immediately, expanding their production. Since the contract was under Amber's name, any issues that arose would be her
responsibility. This was the very reason why Neil and Jerome intentionally caused trouble. They aimed to make things difficult for Amber.
The brassy—haired man, Blanco Perry, menacingly held a steel pipe as he shouted, “What are we doing, you ask? We're doing whatever the
hell we want!”
“Nonsense!” Amber was furious and briskly walked over. “The Chesire Group signed contracts with all the relocation households, and compensation has been paid. This land belongs to the Chesire Group; it’s not your territory!”
Blanco’s eyes nearly bulged out when he laid eyes on Amber. The man was not lying!
The young woman overseeing this project was stunning and better—looking than some celebrities. Her figure was impeccable, and he felt his desire growing just by staring!
“Ahem! | declare your contracts invalid!” Blanco ogled at Amber, and he sneered maliciously. “I won’t let you start construction, and I'll tear down anything you build! Go ahead; test if I’m lying.”
“How shameless!” Amber's tone turned icy, and she turned to the site manager behind her, resolute in her stance. “Call the police so they'll take down these thugs!”
Blanco’s expression changed. “Silly girl! Are you trying to contact the police? Everyone, smash this place! Give it to them good!” Agroup of his lackeys charged in, each wielding steel pipes and ready to strike.
“I'll handle this beauty!” Blanco sneered. He aimed his steel pipe at Amber's forehead, intending to knock her out and have his way with her. He was determined to enjoy every bit of this gorgeous woman.
Amber’s face turned pale, and she Instinctively moved to dodge the incoming attack.
Soon, there came the crisp sound of bones breaking, followed by Blanco’s scream of agony. 1/2
Amber looked up and saw a sturdy figure standing before ner.
It was Alexander!
Blanco writhed in pain on the ground, both his legs broken.
“You bastard!” Alexander coldly huffed and stomped on Blanco’s arm, which prompted another scream from the man, who was on the verge of passing out.
“Get him! Take him down for Blanco!” yelled the rest of the men as they wildly charged toward Alexander. They had come to stir trouble for the money, and their greed made them fearless. With numbers on their side, they felt invincible. “Alex...” Pale-faced Amber reached out to pull Alexander away.
However, Alexander let out a low chuckle and charged forward like a fierce tiger unleashed from a cage, kicking and punching at the
hooligans.
The men were sent flying through the air, crashing heavily onto the ground with their mouths and noses bleeding. They wailed out of
sheer pain.
Alexander dusted his hands as though he was doing menial tasks, unfazed by the chaos around him.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
The stunned Amber stood in silence.
Further away, the construction crew members were utterly dumbfounded. They gaped at Alexander, then at the bewildered Amber.
Alexander’s strength was simply out of this world!
Alexander approached Blanco and stared at him disdainfully. Then, he leaned down and coldly demanded, “Speak! Who sent you?”
“How dare you hurt me...” Blanco spat back, still on the ground. “Just wait! Someone will kill y-you-”
Alexander swiftly broke Blanco’s remaining undamaged arm.
“Aargh!” Blanco let out a heart-wrenching scream and quickly lost consciousness.
The hooligans on the ground trembled in fear, thinking Alexander was insane. The assault was too brutal!
Several of them were left cowering, and some even held their own groin. Their arrogance washed away as fear took hold. Alexander snorted and went straight to the still-dazed Amber, pulling her away to inspect the factory.
The site supervisor stuttered, “T-Thank you, Miss Chesire! Do we still need to call the police?”
“No need. These pests aren’t worth wasting public resources on,” Alexander replied. He then slowly counted, “One, two...” As he raised his third finger, the hooligans scrambled to their feet, bolting away.
“Run! Run for your life!”
“He’s crazy dangerous. He’s the most skilled fighter I’ve ever seen!”
“Yo, help me up! My leg broke!”
Their cries filled the air, and they all disappeared.
That so-called worthless man was not remotely what he appeared to be. He was a god of combat!
