Chapter 146: Two Paths Diverged



Whether it was expanded the business that Diana had inherited, or Hee-Young’s cosmetic corporation. Alex walked down the stairs of the penthouse while dressed in a finely tailored suit. Which caught his women by surprise. Yet there was a reason for this, and Alex was quick to address his mother and lover, both of which were in charge of massive corporations.

“Mom, Hee-Young… May I have a moment of your time?”

The two women were naturally curious about what Alex wanted to speak with them about. But they followed him to a more secluded area of the penthouse, where began to pose his ideas to them.

“It has suddenly occurred to me that we have a perfect opportunity with the acquisition of our new wealth, to expand our businesses and maximize our profits. If the two of you have the time, I’d like to propose a few ideas to you…”

The two women rolled their eyes, thinking to themselves that Alex had suddenly become full of himself after acquiring a vast fortune. Both Diana and Hee-Young had been communicating ever since the silver haired Korean milf first showed up at Diana’s penthouse.

After all, they were both wealthy elites of their own respective countries, and because of this, they had much in common. Yet they both knew that Alex wasn’t exactly the kind of man suited to business. Still, since they were fucking him, they might as well entertain his ideas. Thus, they forced a couple of pretty smiles before nodding their heads in agreement.

“Sure, let’s hear what you have to offer…”

Alex spent the next hour discussing intricate details of both women’s businesses, shocking them in the process of how much he had suddenly come to understand about the world of business and finances. Until this moment, they had always thought of Alex as a sort of dumb fighter. But now he was clearly displaying exceptional experience and knowledge of the business world.

They even had to write down his proposals, because they simply couldn’t keep up with it. And once Alex was finished speaking about his ideas to maximize profits, and decrease overhead. The two women were stunned in disbelief. They looked at each other with mouths agape, before silently nodding their heads in agreement.

“Alright… We will look into your ideas to see if they are viable, and if they are, we will implement them. In the meantime, Alex, you should go back to school. You have missed more than a few days’ worth of classes due to all this drama that Richard has caused, and I doubt your professors will be so forgiving.”

Alex smirked when he heard this and nodded his head in agreement. It had been over a week since he had stepped foot on UNLV’s campus. And because of this, he would need to seriously charm his professors to prevent them from failing him for missing too many classes.

Thus, he kissed the two women on the lips and smacked their asses before heading out for the day. Alex was back in the luxury of his hyper-car as he drove through the streets of Las Vegas. It had been a week since the shootout which claimed the lives of Richard and his son. And since then, the police have been trying their best to find any leads about who was responsible.

In fact, it was still national news, not that there were even any new developments to report. And perhaps because of this Alex had begun to suspect that the government was using this story to coverup some of the more shady shit they were involved with.

It was not uncommon for a tragedy to take place, and for the news to spend weeks reporting on it, in order to cover up a major scandal of the white house, or another prominent politician. Alex had simply given them an ample opportunity to do so. Or so he suspected.

The world was going to hell. With wars in eastern Europe, and the middle east threatening to kick-start World War III, and yet, Alex only saw this as an opportunity to profit. Thus, while he was sitting at a red light, he got onto his phone, and activated an app which connected him to the stock market, where he invested a few million dollars into the defense industry.

After all, the American economy practically relied on the Military Industrial Complex to keep itself afloat. And because of this, there was always some stupid proxy war to fight in a foreign country that was not remotely a threat to the American people. But this also meant that there was also always a chance to profit off of other people’s suffering. And Alex had no moral qualms about such a thing.

After investing in several major defense contractors, Alex saw that his light had turned green, and thus he put down his phone before continuing his drive to school.

On the campus of UNLV, Chad was freaking out. Amahle had completely cut contact with him after the night he had infiltrated Alex’s penthouse and supplied her with valuable information about its security measures. Worse yet, before she did so, she sent a single cryptic message that sent chills down the young man’s spine.

“My employer is dead. The contract is void. Don’t contact me again…”

Her employer was dead? Did that mean that Richard was the one who had put the hit out on Diana and Alex’s heads? It made sense when Chad thought about it. After all, the man was about to lose half of the fortune he had spent his entire life building in a divorce that was undoubtedly spurred on by none other than Alex.

But who had killed the man? Who was the masked gunman? If Chad was being honest, there was only one person he could think of who was absolutely insane enough to shoot up a casino in an attempt to get rid of Richard.

And that was Alex himself. Thus, Chad had immediately approached Emily, who had since returned to her own home, and begun going to school on her own, with the intent of getting her to calm Alex’s rage.

The man was trying his best not to kneel on the ground and beg his girlfriend for her help, knowing such behavior was practically akin to pussy repellent. Still, he trembled at the thought of Alex coming back to school today, and blowing his brains out. And his voice even begun to crack as he spoke to his ex.

“Emily, baby, you have got to stop Alex from killing me! Please!’

Emily, however, was barely paying attention to Chad, who was stalking her through the halls. After the shit he pulled at the penthouse, half of her wanted the man to drop dead. Yet there was still a part of her that refused to admit that her childhood crush, and the man she had dated for four years, was really such a piece of shit.

This history between the two of them was the only thing that prevented Emily from outright dropping into the negative when it came to her affection for Chad. Because of this, there was an absolutely ice cold tone in her voice, as she spoke to the man, dismissing his problems as his own.

“You dug your own grave Chad… I mean honestly, I know you hate Alex, but to actually help an assassin in her attempts to kill him? As far as I’m concerned, that makes what you did attempt murder. And frankly, you deserve whatever Alex chooses to do with you. Now, if you don’t mind, I have to get to a class. Goodbye Chad…”

Emily then shrugged off her ex and entered her classroom. Not even paying attention to the man who looked like he had just been sentenced to the gallows. Chad was naturally displeased with how unhelpful his “girlfriend” was being, and thus cursed her out as he walked away from her classroom.

“Useless fucking bitch!”

Luckily for Chad, Alex was busy with other matters, and didn’t come searching for Chad on this day. Thus, he was able to escape with his life intact. But this would breed a deep sense of paranoia with the man, which caused him to seek out an acquaintance for help after school was over.

At lunch time, Vanessa received an urgent request from one of her clients for help. It was, of course, none other than Chad. She was still angry at the man for what he did to Emily, but hadn’t been able to teach him a proper lesson yet.

Thus, rather than go into the MMA gym today, the Brazilian beauty decided she would visit Chad and see just what had crawled up his ass. And sure enough, when she met up with the man, he did not look well at all. Almost as if he had not slept in a day, or perhaps even a week. The man was quite fidgety as he thanked Vanessa for helping him.

“Vanessa, you have no idea how much it means to me that you answered my text… I need your help… You see, there is this guy, and I think he wants to murder me. I need to know how to properly defend myself for when he inevitably attacks! Please! Train me how to fight!”

Vanessa looked at the kid as if he were an absolute moron, before speaking to him as if he were a child.

“Who the hell wants to kill you, Chad? In case you haven’t noticed, you’re not exactly important enough to assassinate! What did you do? Rack up a debt with the mob, and now they want you to pay?”

Chad shifted his gaze, not wanting Vanessa to see how pitiful he looked, as he asked her to drop the topic.

“I don’t want to talk about it. Please, just help me!”

Vanessa sighed and shook her head. She could not believe this idiot had gotten himself into such serious trouble. She was not exactly heartless, despite her foul mouth, and because of this, she accepted Chad’s request.

“Alright fine… I’ll help train you how to fight, but if someone is really trying to kill you, you’re better off getting a gun and a concealed carry license. Some body armor wouldn’t hurt either… But whatever, it’s your money. From now on, your training will cost you double, and we will spend an hour going over the basics of fighting. Alright?”

It took all the strength that Chad had for him to not fall to his knees and thank Vanessa for her benevolence. But unfortunately he was in no such condition and immediately did exactly that as he tried to kiss the woman’s feet in an absolutely pathetic display of simpery.

“Thank you! Thank you so much! You have no idea how much this means to me!”

Disgusted with the man’s pathetic behavior, Vanessa returned to her car, but not before scolding Chad some more.

“We’ll begin tomorrow before your classes begin and make sure you’re not this pathetic when you show up! In the meantime, I’ve got to get to the gym. I have a few fighters who are waiting for my instruction. See you later Chad, and bring cash!”

Though Chad had no way of knowing it he had just lost some points with Vanessa, which immediately displayed the results to Alex.

[Vanessa is disgusted with Chad’s pitiful behavior!]

[-5 Affection from Vanessa to Chad]

[Vannessa’s Affection to Chad: 30/100]

Thus, while Alex was focused on expanding his fortune, Chad was focused on learning how to defend himself from Alex.
