The Almighty Dominance

Chapter 115

Suddenly, there was only silence in the cat.

The four black vans had already driven away in a hurry, leaving their friends' bodies sprawled on the asphalt. The surrounding cars, whose drivers had witnessed the scene, stayed far away, unwilling to get involved. "Hey, driver," Alex called out. "Don't you think it's time to move out? What are you waiting for?"

The driver, who had been enjoying the music accompanying his journey to the afterlife, slowly opened his eyes and glanced around.

A jolt of shock ran through him. The obstruction that had once blocked his path

was gone.

"Yes, yes, Sir."

He hastily pushed the pedal, and as the car started moving, it bumped slightly- rolling over the bodies on the road

Jasmine stared out of the window, her eyes lost in the blue sky and the rows of passing houses.

"Don't you want to ask who they were?" Alex asked, breaking the heavy silence.

"Not really," Jasmine replied, her vo

soft but dismissive.

"They're like cockroaches-keep coming after me. Honestly, I'm starting to get bored of it." She tried to force a smile.

But Alex noticed the faint tremble in her hand as it rested near him.

"Can you help me tonight?"

"What is it?"

"You know that most of Kingston's bodyguards are stationed with my father in Los Angeles," Jasmine explained.

"The ones here are busy chasing after Chris and Bianca. So, I have no one to protect me. After what just happened, there's no telling when the next attack could come. I need you to be my bodyguard."

"Personal bodyguard?" Alex raised an eyebrow. "Wouldn't it be safer for you to stay in a secure place?"

"That's impossible," Jasmine replied.

"Tonight's my first banquet as Vancouver's leader-my first official appearance after my father. It's the biggest event for me and the entire city."

"Allies and enemies alike will be there. I'll be defenseless, sitting duck. Maybe this will be the last time you see me?" She blinked innocently.

Alex sighed, hesitating for a moment before nodding. "Alright, I'll protect you."

Even though it felt like a hassle, he knew he had to.

He was the reason Alfred Kingston had moved to Los Angeles, and it was his duty

to ensure everything ran smoothly. Jasmine's rise to power could not be put at risk.

"Many thanks, Mr. Alex." Jasmine flashed a sweet smile and linked her arm with his.

The subtle scent of her perfume filled the small space, warm and distracting.
