Chapter 0204

The moment Alexander’s text buzzed in, Drake sprang into action instantly.

In a flash, he was out the door, still in his pricey silk PJs, with ‘Ghost Sword’ Wilhelm, the unbeaten champ of Province Town, by his side. They bolted from the back of Rectewald Mall’s posh estates, Drake’s slippers flapping all the way.

“Mister Kane.”

Riding up to the penthouse corridor, Drake spotted Alexander and beelined to him, a grin spreading wide across his face. “What a surprise, Mister Kane! Why didn’t you give us a heads-up? I sure hope you’ll overlook

any slip-ups on our part.”

Drake meant every word. Ever since Alexander laid Wilhelm flat with just one move, leaving the crowd

gobsmacked, everyone got the memo: Messing with Alexander was akin to playing with fire.

“Mister Hardy’s calling him Mister Kane?!”

The whole corridor was buzzing-Hagen, Gael, a squad of security, and Amber with her old school gang, all

with their jaws on the floor.

The big-shot Hardy, bending over backward for Alexander? Why?

The room was buzzing, but truth be told, most people did not really know Drake beyond the whispers of his clout in the shadows. Hagen, the guy running the show at Rectewald Mall, and Gael, who just scraped into Woolpackton’s high society, knew the score about Drake’s murky past.

Rumor had it that Drake’s rise was not just from his own hustle. He had some serious muscle backing him up.
