Leslie Rowe, the project manager, ran over to Amber, panting hard. “Miss Chesire, those men are blocking the road again. They deflated our tires, too! Our driver was beaten up and sent to the hospital!
“Also, they demanded that we buy their building materials, or they won't let anyone enter. But their price is three times the market price! It’s way beyond our budget!”
Amber gritted her teeth. She knew they were being extorted, but she refused to buy their materials. Otherwise, not only would they receive
no profit from the project, but they would lose out a lot as well. However, if the construction was delayed, the project would no longer have any meaning! Amber was conflicted.
“Leslie, do you know who they are?” Amber took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. As the project manager, she had to stay calm.
“| don’t know who they are, Miss Chesire. They just appeared out of nowhere. They’re not any of our competitors.” Leslie shrugged helplessly. “I tried talking to them, but they surrounded me with metal pipes and beat me.”
Leslie continued, “Even the police couldn't do anything. They ran off when they saw the police, but they returned when the police left.”
It was clear those men were there to deliberately foil the development of the progress.
Alexander had just chased off a group of men the day before. Why was there another group that day? The trouble was never- ending!
Nearby, a few other staff sighed too. They looked troubled.
“We have a lot of company, and not the good kind.” Alexander looked at Amber before starting the car. He drove quickly over to the concrete road.
This concrete road was an important transportation pathway. All the construction site materials as well as all the daily necessities for the staff had to go past this road.
800 meters in, the road was blocked by a pile of roads and fallen trees. Cars could not pass. Alexander, still in the Porsche, sneered. He rammed the car right into the pile of rocks and fallen trees, which opened a pathway.
“Someone’s coming!” A few men by the side of the road saw the Porsche coming from far away. One of them yelled out loud, “Quickly! Stop him!”
The men quickly formed a line across the road, stretching their arms out and blocking the road. At the same time, they waved at Alexander, asking him to stop by the side of the road.
Vroom!
Alexander slammed on the gas pedal and drove faster toward them.
“Fuck me! He's nuts!”
“He’s a madman! Does he want to die? There are more obstacles behind us!” “He wants to kill us all!”
The men swore and swerved. Some even fell to the ground. Luckily, they managed to swerve quickly, or they would have been heavily injured.
The Porsche flew forward and knocked down all the obstacles. Alexander stopped the car and got out of the car.
Did these people have a death wish? Surely so! How dare they block the road here?
“Come out right now! I'll kill you!”
“Chop off his hands!”
“Fuck! He has to pay me for the trauma he caused!”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

The men swore as they walked over to Alexander angrily.
One of the men sneered and swung his fist toward Alexander’s head.
Crack!
The man could not even see Alexander's action when he felt his wrist burning in terrible pain. It was snapped straight off! “Ah!” wailed the man as he dropped to the ground, squirming in pain.
When the other men saw what had happened, they picked up the beer bottles on the ground and attacked Alexander. “Ah!”
“Ouch!”
Wails rang out in the air that would make chills run down one’s spine.
The men could barely touch Alexander. They were all beaten to the ground and were wailing in pain. Blood trickled down their mouths.
“You bastard. I'll kill you!” a man angrily yelled. He picked up an ax and flung it at Alexander.
This was the head of the group. He did not join the fight and chose to wait under the tree when he first saw Alexander. He never expected that Alexander would be a seasoned fighter. Seeing his men defeated, his superior would surely berate him for it!
At that moment, all he wanted was to take Alexander’s life to make up for it.
Alexander smiled. He did not swerve at all.
As the ax came down on him, he reached his hand out and caught the weapon. The leader was huffing and puffing, yet the ax would not budge.
It was then the man realized that Alexander caught the ax with only two fingers!
Fwomp!
Before he could react, Alexander kicked him right in the check. He spat blood out and passed out instantly.
“Pests.”
Alexander glanced over the writhing men before he dusted his hands and drove off.
Meanwhile, the men could only watch as Alexander left. They shuddered and sweated profusely. Alexander’s murderous gaze was so terrifying they felt as if they were in hell!
Back at the construction site... Amber took a deep breath. “I must go over myself and talk some sense into them!”
She turned and headed to the road. She could not waste any more time. If the building materials were not shipped in time, the project was doomed!
“No, Miss Chesire! You can’t go! They're thugs!” warned Leslie hastily. “Yes! They'll do anything!”
“You can’t go!”
The others tried persuading Amber as well.
Amber sighed deeply. Her eyes were filled with determination. She was the project manager. If she could not solve this problem on her own, surely no one else could.
Right at this moment, a calm voice rang out, stunning everyone.
“No need. I’ve talked to them already.”
