Chapter 31

Jack turned, his demeanor instantly shifting as he sized up Alex.

Puffing out his chest like a blowfish, his fists clenched, and his eyes narrowed with hostility.

"So, you're the one extorting and harassing my sister, huh?" Jack sheered.

"Let me wam you: a pathetic man like you had better stay away from her. Keep pestering her, and you'll be digging your own grave."

Alex snorted, amused.

"Don't you have any manners, kid? If you did, you'd greet me properly as your brother-in-law."

Jack's face darkened instantly.

"Brother-in-law?" he growled.

"Who do you think you are, you ignorant fool? Do you even deserve it? My family should've hired you as a servant instead!"

Alex chuckled.

"You're as foolish as you look."

Jack's temper flared, his fists shaking with rage.

"Hand over the card, you thief! Or...!"

Alex folded his arms, his calm demeanor only fueling Jack's frustration.

"Or what?" he asked, amusement dancing in his eyes.

Jack's audacity was almost entertaining to him.

"Or I'll nail you to the wall myself," Jack threatened, fists clenched tightly.

Alex casually glanced him up and down, a sly smile tugging at his lips.

"Do you really think I'm scared of your petty threats?"

"You better be! Give me the card, or I'll break your legs right here, right now!"

Jack sneered, his arrogance dripping from every word.

Alex chuckled again, shaking his head in disbelief.

"You? Break my legs? Don't you think it'll be the other way around?"
