Chapter 0137
Under Mark’s orders, the entire Aares Casino was cleared out in less than three minutes. All that was
left were the dealers, security guards, and bouncers–about 80 of them. They were glaring at the young
man standing by the entrance.
It was Alexander Kane.
“You came alone? How gutsy of you, Kane!” Mark, flanked by John and Zoro, slowly walked down the
spiral staircase. He looked at Alexander and smirked. “I was about to head to Ol‘ Mare to deal with you
myself. Never thought you’d show yourself here. You saved me from making the trip!”
At that, all 80 men surrounded Alexander.
John stood behind Mark with a darkened gaze. He did some stretches to warm up. Zoro drew his
sword and rubbed his fingers on the blade. He looked murderous.
John was famous for his fighting skills internationally. He had once gone up against many gangs and
groups all alone.
Zoro’s swordplay was not to be reckoned with as well. He could attack his opponent six times within a
second, enough to kill many sword–fighting champions.
“These two? They’re the ones you’re relying on?”
Alexander stood by the entrance of the casino. He ignored everyone, merely looking
at Mark. “My time is precious. I don’t have the time to deal with you.”
Then, Alexander took out an acquisition contract he prepared beforehand and threw
it to Mark. “Your choice. Either you sign the contract, or you die. You have one
minute.‘
Mark raised his eyebrow, He swept a glance at the contract. He was so furious that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe laughed.
The contract was simple with only one clause. It stated that the assets of Chesire
Group that Mark acquired would be transferred unconditionally to New Chesire
Group, effective upon the signing of the contract.
“And here I thought you were a smart man, Alexander Kane. Turns out, you’re an idiot!” Mark sneered
and tore the contract to pieces.
He threw it at Alexander. “I’m going to say it once. Since you’re in my territory. already, don’t think you
can get out of here alive!”
Alexander slowly shook his head. He did not tell Amber that he had come to
Aaronson.
It was about two in the afternoon at this point. He needed to return to have dinner with Olivia. He
should be able to make it in time.
He had not seen Olivia for a long time since the trip to Wakefield. Hence, he could
not afford to miss out on having dinner with her.
“One minute passes by quickly. You still have twenty seconds.” Alexander looked at Mark and said
softly, “Get your men to print out another copy of the contract with the exact same thing. You can
continue wasting your time, but the price is your
death.”
Mark’s smirk widened.
Alexander was in his territory, yet he still dared to think he was the boss. He truly
did have a death wish.
“You’ve injured so many of my men and killed my best right–hand man.” Mark narrowed his gaze. His
eyes gleamed murderously. “And yet you’re still pretending
that you’re really great. Do you think I’ve not looked into you?”
He flipped off Alexander and snickered. “You were enlisted in Northern Wyverna. You escaped to a
ship and were off at sea for two years after you retired. There, you learned how to fight. You’re the live–
in son–in–law of the Chesire family! You’re just a useless good–for–nothing piece of trash, yet you want
to be cocky? Wait your turn!”
Then, Mark waved. “Men, get him! I want him tortured to death!”
80 men roared. Some drew their rubber mallet, while some drew their sabers. They
attacked Alexander.
“One minute is up,” remarked Alexander expressionlessly as they charged at him.
Then, he moved.

His figure was so quick that no one could see where he was! They only saw a blur,
and Alexander was gone.
Alexander suddenly appeared right in front of Mark, standing a meter away from
him.
“Die, Alexander Kane!” John growled and bent down. He swung his fist toward Alexander’s nose,
lightning–quick.
At the same time, Zoro narrowed his eyes and attacked. His sword technique was
like a storm hailing down on Alexander’s lower body.
“No. You guys will die.” Alexander was not flustered at all. He continued forward. He
reached out his left hand, grabbed and tugged, while he pinched with his right
thumb and index finger.
Thud! Thud!
John’s blurry punch was easily captured by Alexander’s left hand. Alexander had a
tough grip that John could not pull back from, even if he tried.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe blade of Zoro’s sword was pinched easily between Alexander’s fingers.
Alexander lightly flicked his wrists in both hands.
Crack! Clang!
John’s right wrist and Zoro’s sword let out a loud crack at the same time. John’s
wrist was crushed on the spot. Bones pierced through his flesh and protruded out of
his skin.
Zoro’s right hand was equally terrible. His wrist had been twisted and crushed as
well. It was an explosion of blood and flesh.
“Gahhh!”
They yelled at the same time, clutching their wrists. Two internationally renowned
fighters could not even take a blow from Alexander.
“I–Impossible!” Mark and the other 80 men paled. They were so frightened that they

shuddered.
Alexander was too powerful!
They had seen John and Zoro in action before. They understood how terrifying both of them were.
Without any guns around, even if a few hundred men were going up against them at once, they would
still defeat them all.
Much to their horror, Alexander defeated them so easily. The more terrifying thing was Alexander still
remained calm. It did not take him any effort at all.
How powerful was he? He was not human at all!
“I’ve already said, my time is precious.”
Alexander casually flicked his wrist. He did not even look at the others. He looked at Mark once more
and said, “Well? Your life, or the contract?”
