Chapter 0019

“What the fuck!” Neil cursed under his breath, furious. “Do you think you can act all high and mighty in front of me? Do you think you can disrespect me?”

Neil glared at Alexander’s receding figure, gnashing his teeth in frustration. “Are you showing off just because you’ve returned from the military, with soldiers to back you up? I’ll have you know that General Gonzales, the head of Ol’ Mare Military, is my friend! With just a word, he can make you disappear!”

Alexander paused in his steps and could not help but chuckle at Neil’s theatrics. Turning to face Neil, he taunted, “He can make me disappear with just a word, you say? Is Steve Gonzales really your friend? Uncle Neil, I’m a coward. Don’t scare me!”

Neil swiftly retrieved his phone, his frustration evident as he exclaimed, “Oh? You think you have the upper hand? Just wait!”

He glared at Alexander before swiftly locating Steve’s phone number in his contact list. With a tap on the screen, he dialed the number. After about 15 seconds, the call connected. Steve’s deep, serious voice resonated through the phone.

“Neil, what’s going on? I’ve told you numerous times not to call my personal number without a good reason. I’m quite busy today with an important issue. Whatever it is, we’ll have to discuss it another time.”

Neil became tense, but he continued, “General Gonzales, please don’t hang up. It’s just something trivial. Your soldiers are causing a commotion at Ol’ Mare Hospital, delaying my son’s treatment. I thought I should inform you, just to protect your reputation. If this news gets out, it won’t look good for you.”

On the other end of the line, Steve, clad in full military uniform with three golden stars on his shoulders, suddenly jolted. “Repeat that for me, Neil. Where is this happening?”

“Ol’ Mare Hospital,” Neil repeated, confused. “Where else would I take my son for treatment? I-”

Steve clenched the phone tightly, cursing Neil for being an idiot. Did he not notice the soldiers’ unit number? These soldiers were from the Temple of War. They were Alexander’s elite troops, not his!

Steve ordered through gritted teeth, “Stay there! Don’t say a word or move an inch. I’ll be there in a moment.”
