His Lordship Alexander Kane

The assistant wasted no time in conducting the investigation, and Yohannes picked up the phone again and offered repeated apologies.

“Goodness gracious... Your Lordship, I’m terribly sorry for this. This is surely a misunderstanding. I'll deal with it immediately!”

Alexander ended the call, walked up to Susanne, and casually snapped the ropes binding her. He whispered, “I’m sorry, Mom. It was carelessness that caused you to suffer.”

Susanne hugged her knees, sobbing loudly. Amber, too, ran and embraced her mother, unable to contain her concern. “Mom! Morn, I’m here now! Don’t be scared...” Soon, dozens of armed security guards surrounded Jamie’s office.

Inside the room, Cindy gained some confidence and screamed triumphantly, “Mister Bidner, our security tearn is here. They won't get

away!”

However, Jamie lowered his head and chuckled nervously. When Alexander was on the phone, he already knew he was done for.

That was a rarely known VVIP service hotline, and only a few across the nation knew about it...

The office phone rang, and Jamie shuddered. He felt his legs go weak and looked at Alexander apprehensively, but Alexander paid him no

attention. “M-Mister Irvine.” Jamie stammered, his face turning sickly white as he broke out in cold sweat.

“What the hell? Are you stupid? Mister Kane is the most esteemed VIP at our bank! How dare you mess with his mother-in-law? You've dug your own grave. Don’t drag me down with you! Even the shareholders are discussing removing me from my position. Go and beg for

Mister Kane’s forgiveness! Oh, I'd kill you if | could, Jamie!”

Yohannes cursed at Jamie, his rage uncontainable. After his string of harsh words, he roared, “If this isn’t resolved perfectly, you won't see

the sun tomorrow!”

As soon as the Yohannes hung up, the call from the top executive of American Express in Wyverna came in. The mere sound of their voice over the phone could tear Jamie to shreds.

“It’s over...”

Jamie’s vision darkened. His ears rang as he felt like his head was about to explode. He could not understand why the top VIP of American

Express would be here at Ol‘ Mare! Yohannes gave Alexander the card... Yohannes Irvine...the CEO...

Jamie stumbled, feeling like his world was crumbling. He anticipated a meteoric rise in his career due to this incident but fumbled terribly instead. He might even lose his position as the manager!

Cindy, who just crawled up from the floor, had no idea what had happened. She was still clueless, urging him on. “Mister Bidner, Fil get

the police right now.”

“Report to the police? To hell with that!” Jamie turned abruptly, delivering a ruthless slap to Cindy’s face, leaving her dazed. “Who allowed you to treat a top VIP of our bank this way? I’ll beat you to death!”

Cindy’s face swelled up as a trickle of blood ran down her chin. However, she dared not utter a word, not even a whimper.

After the savage beating, Jamie dropped to his knees and started furiously bowing to Alexander and Susanne. He struck his own face as he apologized profusely.

“I'm sorry, it’s all my fault! | was blind, ignorant of the mighty presence before me, and wrongly accused you! I’m a fool...” Jarnie went all out as he begged for forgiveness.

Alexander did not even bother to look at him, exuding a terrifying aura of bloodlust.

Jamie’s courage crumbled. If Susanne did not forgive him, his days were numbered!

Atop VIP of American Express, who received his card directly from the CEO himself, was the kind of person people would usually treat as if

they were God. Jamie, the fool he was, stupidly offended one. It was a complete act of self-sabotage!

“Madam!” Jamie crawled to Susanne. He frantically bowed and struck his cheeks until they started bleeding. “Madam, please spare me,” he begged pathetically, “spare my wretched life! | have a large family to support. Saving me would be like saving us all. You're a living

saint...”

Susanne, weary and emotionally drained, watched as the battered Jamie bowed pitifully. She had a lot on her mind but did not want to say a word. After all, she remembered vividly how Jamie treated her when he wronged her earlier.

He was so arrogant and domineering that he shattered her self-esteem.

After a long silence, with vacant eyes, Susanne finally spoke, “Amber, | want to go home...”

“Alright, Mom, let’s go.”

Amber’s eyes welled with tears as she glanced at Alexander, then helped her mother leave.

At the entrance, the security guards formed two neat lines, bowing and lowering their heads to make way for Susanne and Amber.

Jamie was already kneeling and genuflecting. Who would dare stand in their way? Alexander’s face darkened as he asked, “Who hit her just now?”

The security guard who committed the act leaned against the wall, trembling and feeling suffocated. When he heard Alexander’s question, his legs gave way, and he slumped to the ground.

“Which hand did you use to strike her? Disable it immediately, or you’re dead!” With a cold glance, Alexander walked out. As he exited the room, there was a series of wails and cries.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

The security guard who harmed Susanne let out a piercing scream amid the crisp sound of bones breaking. His arm that struck Susanne was likely beyond repair.
