Chapter 0046 Finally, the troublemaking men were out of sight.
Amber froze in place, her beautiful face still a little pale from what happened. “Alex, I’ve been wondering this since Olivia’s birthday—where did you learn to fight like that?”
Alexander single-handedly defeated a group of small-time hooligans within seconds, displaying terrifying combat skills. He also subdued over a hundred professional bodyguards with ease during Olivia’s birthday.
Even martial arts movies would not dare to showcase such unbelievable scenes!
Alexander shrugged it off, saying, “It’s nothing. Don’t forget that | served in the military for many years. If | can’t handle a few small-time hooligans, I'd be a disgrace to the nation.”
To him, these petty criminals were not even worth his time. However, they crossed the line when they daringly threatened Amber. If they made any more trouble, he would not mind killing them instantly.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Amber had more to ask but decided against it. Instead, she went to the side to organize work arrangements for the construction cre Initially, the team leaders held some disdain for Amber, who was a relatively inexperienced member of the Chesire family without ar established authority. They questioned why they should take orders from a newcomer. With their years of experience and handling numerous projects, they found it unacceptable to be commanded by an unproven leader.
However, they did not dare to utter a word in Alexander's presence, and they followed instructions obediently.
“You must complete the project within two months, with the factory starting production within three months,” Amber set clear deadlines. Several team leaders nodded obediently.
Amber continued, “Once the production line is set up, the project will be halfway done. The later stages will require coordination of various resources to ensure high—quality product output. | expect your full cooperation.”
Once at work, Amber would do so wholeheartedly and would never take shortcuts. Her meticulousness, determination, and decisiveness made her a true professional in the workplace.
Alexander sat quietly, watching Amber with eyes full of tenderness and affection. This was his woman, ever so captivating. Meanwhile, at Patrick’s house.
Susanne had just finished massaging Patrick’s leg. The doctor recommended regular massages to prevent muscle contraction, but the cost was high. Thus, Susanne took it upon herself to do it.
“Thank you, Susanne. | truly appreciate all your efforts,” said Patrick with a heartfelt sense of guilt.
He had been crippled since he was young, yet Susanne never complained. She had gone through her fair share of troubles in the Chesire family yet never voiced a single grievance. Instead, she made countless sacrifices for their little family.”
“It's no big deal. If | don’t take care of you, who will?” Susanne helped Patrick stand up and smiled. “Patrick, you stay at home and watch some TV. I'll go out and buy some groceries. Amber's been working hard, so I'll make her something delicious.”
Then, she took out her small purse, only to find it empty—-her money was already spent. “Bank card...”
Susanne went into Amber’s room, recalling that Amber had given her specific instructions in case she needed the bank card in an emergency. Amber had placed the card in the left coat pocket of the wardrobe, and the PIN was Amber’s birthdate.
In the pocket, she found a Centurion card with the word ‘ALEX’ artistically written on it.
“What kind of card is this?” Susanne was puzzled. She hesitated when she saw the word ‘American Express’ on the back of the card, but she quickly brushed it off and headed to the bank.
When Susanne arrived, the ATM had a long line of people, so she decided to go to the counter instead. When it was finally her turn, she

Amber had told Susanne that there were only a few hundred dollars on the card, and she did not leave too much in the account, considering the numerous scams targeting the elderly, which often resulted in theft after obtaining their PINS.
The female teller did not ask any further questions and began the withdrawal process. However, when she looked at the bank card...
The teller was rendered speechless, her voice faltering as she addressed Susanne, “Madam, a—are you sure you want to withdraw all the
money? Every last cent?”
