Chapter 536


    Chapter 536 Lie Low to Live Longer


    Ten minutes of fightingter, Alec started feeling worn out as he noticed that he was no match for his


    opponent. He was gripped by shock and frustration for not being stronger.


    Alec stumbled backward from the impact of another punch thatnded on his cheek. The middle-aged


    man didn’t give Alec time to recover-he charged at Alec and punched him violently. Had he not strictly


    followed Graham’s orders to teach Alec a lesson, Alec would have been dead by now.


    Soon, Alec was face-down on the ground.


    “You may leave,” Graham said to the middle-aged man. Then, he strode up to Alec and stood towering


    over the defeated man on the ground with a regal air.


    “Alec Faust, I get that you’re quite capable, but your ability is stillcking for Bardoff City standards.


    Had you met another opponent instead of me, you would have died here today. Here’s a warningy


    low before you are strong enough so you can live longer.” With that, Graham turned around to leave.


    He suddenly stopped and said, ’Jenny is the daughter of the Walter family. She’s out of your league


    now. I hope you get the note and stop pestering her-you’re not from the same world.”


    After Graham left, Alec got up from the ground, dusted his sleeves, and left in his car. He was not upset


    about the loss, for he could always win in the future. He was young, and it was a matter of time before


    he beat the middle -aged man.


    What upset him was Graham’s statement. “Am I not from the same world as Jenny? Bullshit! Jenny is


    mine, now and forever. Graham Walter might be her dad, but he didn’t have the right to make decisions


    on her behalf,” he fumed silently.


    He drove himself home, body aching from head to toe from the heavy beating that night. He sat on the


    sofa and was about to take off his shirt to check his injuries when he heard the sound of the doorbell.


    Frowning, he wondered who thete-night visitor was.


    He walked up and opened the door. To his surprise, Jenny was standing there.


    “Why are you here?” he blurted out. She didn’t answer, but her eyes were fixed on his face. There was


    a jarring bruise beneath his eyes, an injury he could not hide even if he insisted he was fine. “I


    identally tripped.”


    She was speechless at his exnation. “Do you take me as a fool?” He stood there quietly as she


    walked into his ce. “Come in. I’ll take a look at your injuries.” As a doctor, she was capable of


    checking the severity of his injuries. She wondered if he had also sustained injuries at other parts of his


    body. She received Christopher’s video, in which Alec was terribly beaten up to the point that he could


    not stand.


    He hummed and followed her into the living room, sitting on the sofa. She ordered, “Take off your shirt.”


    ”I…’ He suddenly felt shy under her gaze.


    She rolled her eyes at him. “Now! Quit acting like you’re embarrassed.” She knew him too well-he was


    not easily embarrassed.


    He coughed to break the awkwardness and took off his shirt to show his injuries from the fight. Judging


    from the huge swaths of bruises on his chest and back, he was beaten up badly. There wasn’t an area


    that was free from bruising.


    Thankfully, he had no open wounds, or he might suffer from excessive blood loss.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Jenny took out some ointment and massaged his body as she gave him a look in defeat. She asked


    softly, “Does it hurt?’
