Chapter 17 Who Is Alex Jefferson 

The next day, after sending Stanley to the kindergarten. Alex went to the office

He had acquired Four Seas Corporation, and it was time for him to manage the company

Good morning. Mr. Jefferson!James, who was on shift, hastily straightened up to greet Alex when he spotted the latter

Ever since Alex demoted him, he had been resentful. Just the day before, he was about to pledge loyalty to Walt. Yet, before he could do that, he found out that the Wallace family had fallen from grace

When he found out that Four Seas Corporation was behind its collapse, he immediately realized it had to be Alex’s plan

Thus, he had no choice but to obediently continue his role as the security guard

Alex did not spare James a glance. Right as he was about to park his electric scooter, a Maserati Executive GT suddenly drove over and crashed into the back of his electric scooter

Fortunately, the driver stopped in time. Otherwise, Alex would have been knocked over as well

Frowning, Alex studied his scooter before realizing that the electric scooter he had been riding for four years had reached its end

It looks like I’ll have to buy a vehicle.” 

Alex sighed. He was a sentimental man, so he never changed his scooter for something else

After a glance at the car, Alex assumed that the driver was a novice driver, so he decided to just let the matter slide

Yet, to his surprise, a beautiful woman came out of the Maserati when the car stopped

Heads turned when the woman appeared

She was wearing heels and a skintight dress that showed off her seductive figure. A woman like her would be the center of attention no matter where she went

That’s Madison Zucker, the star who has been trending recently!” 

I know, right? I heard that the massive franchise, Flair of the City, has her as the lead female!” 

She’s definitely going to be trending for a while again once that show airs.” 

The employees, who were on their way to work, were discussing among themselves when they caught sight of Madison

Right then, a woman around the age of thirty stepped out of the car from the front passenger seat’s side

Madison relished in the people’s attention for a moment before jabbing a finger at Alex and insulting, You useless piece of trash. Do you even know how to ride an electric scooter?” 

Alex furrowed his brows and replied in a glacial tone, Shouldn’t I be the one asking that question? Did you see how you were driving? Why don’t you take a good look at your car?”

Not only was the body of the car slanted by sixty degrees, but even the tires were resting on the parking 

lines

Who do you think you are to make comments about my driving? Do you know who I am?Madison snarled, her embarrassment turning into fury

Sure enough, she had only gotten her driving license. However, Alex’s remarks only made her irritated

Who you are has nothing to do with me. I’m just wondering if you’ve gotten your driving license through illegal means. Why else would you be this terrible at driving?Alex jeered

Madison fumed. Not only did the loser not recognize her, a famous celebrity, but he was also insinuating that she had bought her driving license. She gritted her teeth, nearly growling

You better watch that mouth of yours. I’ll sue you for slander if you don’t!the other woman threatened

Go on, then. I’ll be waiting for the court to summon me.” Alex taunted, sneering

Which department are you from? What’s your name?the other woman demanded. She was going to pull strings to get that young man fired

Knowing what her manager was trying to do, Madison glared at Alex and parroted, That’s right. I dare you to tell me which department you’re from and what your name is.” 

His name is Alex Jefferson, and he’s a security guard,” someone suddenly said

Oh? So you’re a security guard! Hmph! I hope you’re ready to pack up and leave by today!After giving Alex a smug look, Madison went back into her car to park it

Alex’s lips curled before reparking his electric scooter. Then, he turned around and entered the office. building

Alex, I’m surprised you’re still in the mood for work. I thought your wife has gone to keep Mr. Wallace company?a receptionist mocked

She was Madison’s fan, and Alex had just insulted her favorite celebrity without apologizing to Madison

Does a man who’s living off a woman have the right to lord over his wife? Even if he has the guts for it, he doesn’t have the power to pull that off. In other words, if you want to live off someone, you’ve got to be prepared to be cheated on.” 

The others began cackling as well, not at all concerned about hurting Alex’s feelings

Alex’s gaze at them turned icy

Smack! Smack! Smack

Right then, James dashed over to slap them, a murderous look in his eyes. Who the f*ck do you think you are to insult Mr. Jefferson? You must have a death wish!” 

James, how dare you f*cking hit me? Do you think you’re still the manager of security guards?The others were fuming. Despite their aggressive words, they did not dare to engage in a physical fight with James

So what if I hit you? You’re ignorant fools!James scoffed before slapping them again

One tried to retaliate, but they would never be able to win James, who delivered two more slaps that rendered them stunned

After a glance at James, Alex muttered, Not bad. Make a call to Jack and tell him that these people are all fired. Tell him that it’s an order from me.” 

Without sparing those people another glance, Alex continued his way further into the building

Of course, Mr. Jefferson!James was simultaneously thrilled and relieved

After all, he had acted without seeking Alex’s permission, so he was worried that Alex would be displeased with his response

But, now, he knew that he had done the right thing

WWWhat did you just call him?the few of them stammered out in disbelief

James just called Alex Mr. Jefferson! What’s going on

James turned back to look at them coldly. I was saving you by slapping you. If I didn’t do that, you’d still be in the dark after getting cast into hell. Messing with Mr. Jefferson means that you’ll die terribly, just like the Wallace family!” 

What? The Wallace family is gone?they blurted out. The Wallace family’s business was a rather famous company in Nebula City, and they could not think of who could be that powerful to crush the Wallaces

Ha! You can check that online. That is what will happen to you if you cross Mr. Jefferson,James uttered

The four of them quickly checked the net on their phones before paling drastically

MMr. Jefferson is the one behind the destruction of the Wallace family?one of the women asked in a shaky voice
