• “I’m sorry! I’m so sorry for what I’ve done! Please have mercy on me and forgive me for my mistakes!” James exclaimed in a trembling voice.

  • Adam, who had been standing next to James, slumped to the ground and stared wide-eyed at Alex in fear.

  • “Have him demoted to a security guard for the time being. If he performs well, you may consider promoting him to team leader or something in the future. Jonathan Samson will take his place as manager of the security department.”

  • Jonathan was a fellow security guard who had always supported Alex, so the two of them had a decent friendship at work.

  • Alex then turned around and walked off after saying that, leaving James and Adam rooted to the spot in shock.

  • “Understood!” Jack replied respectfully as he walked Alex out of the lobby.

  • Class had just ended at the kindergarten later that evening.

  • Alex was about to head over and pick his son up when he got a call from the teacher.

  • “Hi, are you Stanley Jennings’ father?”

  • “Yes, Ms. Winston. Did Stanley do something wrong?” Alex asked anxiously.

  • “Your son got into a fight with another boy, and that boy is now bleeding from his mouth. His parents insisted over the phone that their son hit Stanley back. Please come over as quickly as possible and sort this out yourselves,” Ms. Winston replied and hung up the phone.

  • Alex gasped in shock and sped over to the kindergarten as quickly as possible.

  • Upon arriving at the kindergarten, he saw Stanley standing next to Ms. Winston with anger written all over his face.

  • The other boy had traces of blood at the corner of his mouth and was crying out loud.

  • “Why did you hit that boy, Stanley?” Alex asked with a somewhat stern expression.

  • Despite being an incredibly powerful and skilled fighter, Alex did not condone the use of violence and had always taught Stanley to be friendly to others.

  • The look of anger on Stanley’s face faded as he pointed at the boy and exclaimed, “He called you a useless coward, Daddy! Because I’m your son, he called me a useless coward too! He even mocked you for being cheated on! He also said I’m a b*stard child of the Jenningses because I share their last name! I don’t want to be a Jennings anymore, Daddy! I want to be a Jefferson!”
