Chapter 31

“My… my lord, please spare my life… I will never do it again. I will also apologize to Miss Mooney and repay the debt. No matter tenfold or hundredfold, I will pay…” Reuben was still trying to plead for the last time. Giving Reuben a deep stare, Joseph uttered, “You should be glad that I don’t want to expose my identity in front of my wife! So, break your arm, keep your promise, and apologize to my wife tomorrow. But you are not allowed to disclose anything about tonight. As for the debts, pay according to the bank’s interest, understand?” Upon hearing this, Reuben was overjoyed and kowtowed profusely. “Yes, I got it! Thank you for sparing my life! Thank you…” After kowtowing for a while, he picked up a steel pipe from the ground and smashed his left arm. At once, his left arm got fractured, but he did not cry out. It was not because he didn’t want to, but he dared not. As for the secretary beside him, she had fainted from fright when Isa was blasted to death. Even if she woke up later on, she most probably wouldn’t dare to tell anyone about tonight’s incident. Not only her, even Ernie-the top figure who had landed a foothold in Oplen-was shaking like a leaf. Kneeling on the ground, he didn’t dare to look up at Joseph. With a nod, Joseph stood up and looked at Ernie, who was kneeling beside Alpha 1. “Who is he?” Joseph asked Alpha 1 while pointing at Ernie. Before Alpha I could speak, Ernie replied respectfully, “Sir, I am Ernie Green…” “Oh. So, you are Ernie. You did a good job this morning. Get up. You are one of us, after all. Do your best and help Alpha 1. If you do well, I will give you a chance to join us…Joseph nodded upon hearing Ernie’s words. Instantaneously, Ernie was over the moon, and his eyes glimmered. Then, he quickly got up and bowed his head. “Thank you, sir. If you have any orders here in the future, I will be at your service!” Hearing this, Joseph paused for a while before he spoke, “Well, actually, there is something I need you to do. At first, I thought of asking Alpha l to inform you and Dennis. But since you are here, the task is yours. Here’s the thing. The Mooneys gave my wife three tests. We have completed the first one tonight. And the second one is they want my wife to create three new sales channels for them. Settle this. The sooner, the better. But one thing, don’t reveal my identity!” Right away, Ernie nodded respectfully and assured, “Noted, sir. Please be rest assured. I’ll make it happen overnight!” “Great…” Joseph nodded.

willing to follow you all my life. Even if I have to die, I’ll never regret it.” Hearing what Alpha 1 said, Joseph heavily patted his shoulder. “Cool! Please wrap things up here. I can’t be out for too long. Oh, by the way, Chloe said that she wants you to play with her. If you’re free tomorrow, come to my house. I’ll send you the address later…” Once Alpha 1 responded with a nod, Joseph left because he couldn’t be out for too long and expose his true identity easily. If the world knew that the leader of Dragon Temple was here, there wouldn’t be any peace in the entire city… It felt like a long time, but in fact, it only took an hour for Joseph to come and leave. After he reached home, Paige and Chloe were still sleeping, so he didn’t think much and went to sleep. However, he had no idea the moment he entered the house, Serena–who was sleeping in another room-opened her

morning, when everyone finished their meal, Paige wanted to find Reuben again. She was filled with determination. No matter what, she wouldn’t let her family look down on her again. If she couldn’t even let her family accept her, let alone Joseph. So regardless of anything, she must get the money back from the Porter family! This time, Serena insisted on going with Paige, to which Paige did not object. With that, Joseph took Chloe and followed them down to see them off. When they reached downstairs, Alpha l just came. “Hi, Mrs. Dawson…” After saying hello to Paige, Alpha 1 carried Chloe and bubbled, “Hi, Chloe. Uncle Alpha l is here to see you. Look, I’ve brought you a toy. Do you like it?” He handed a pink bubble machine to Chloe. Once he pressed the button on it, colorful bubbles appeared, which was very beautiful in the sun. At a glance, Chloe liked it, but she did not dare to accept it. Instead, she looked at Paige. Seeing that Chloe liked it so much, Paige smiled and nodded. “Aren’t you gonna thank Uncle Alpha 1?” Only then, Chloe hugged the bubble machine and beamed sweetly at Alpha 1, “Thank you, Uncle Alpha 1…” Joseph also assured Paige and Serena, “Both of you may go ahead. Alpha 1 and I will take Chloe to the park to play for a while. Don’t worry. I will take good care of her…” Waving her little fist at Paige, Chloe cheered, “Go for it, Mommy! Go for it!”   Seeing this, Paige smiled and nodded to Joseph before leaving with Serena. However, when Serena was leaving, she secretly glanced at Joseph and Alpha l especially Alpha l-and kept Alpha l’s appearance in her mind. That was because when she privately asked Chloe who Joseph contacted after she went upstairs to find Paige

Serena was shocked, and a thought arose in her mind. Nevertheless, she quickly suppressed it and remained silent. When the bus arrived at the bus stop, she got off
