Chapter 426
The Yanker family had lost.
The news spread like wildfire throughout the northern region.
“Zane led the entire Yanker Family to avenge lan, but they went home before they got into OI Mare?”
“What happened? Why did the Yanker family refuse visits from all the heads of the families?” “Aren't they going to avenge lan?”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
People within the circle of the northern tycoons were speculating about the Yanker family’s decision to retreat from Ol’ Mare, but even the top three tycoons failed to probe insider news. Rumors were going around that Zane suffered a big loss in Ol‘ Mare.
The only person who could make Zane suffer was, of course, that man: The son-in-law of the Chesire family, the uncrowned king of Ol‘ Mare, Alexander Kane.
“Was... Was it Alexander?” In an office on the top floor of an office building within the Xanthos Industrial Park..
Callie Xanthos sat in a swivel seat behind her desk, listening to the news that her young female assistant had just passed on. Her pair of beautiful eyes could not hide her surprise. “Are you sure
he defeated Zane?”
The female assistant held a document and playfully stuck out her tongue. “I’m not sure. It’s just gossip and Zane himself doesn’t admit it. No one can be sure if it's true or not.”
“Still, | don’t think it’s possible. Rumor has it that Alexander is only in his mid—twenties. He can’t be able to defeat Zane, no matter how powerful he might be.”
“Well, we know Zane. He’s the head of the Yanker family, a hallowed fighter realm supreme grand martial. Oh, Miss Xanthos, why are you so concerned about Alexander? Do you know him?”
Of course Callie knew him! She missed him!
Alexander was the only person from the younger generation who could defeat Zane, the man with whom she was once engaged to, the only man she approved as her husband.
“Miss Xanthos, | need to tell you something. Alexander is not a good person.” The female assistant put down the document and began to speak in a disdainful tone, “We live in a modern century, but he chose to marry into a rich family for money instead of working hard! He’s a person
without dignity. How can someone like him defeat Zane?
“Everyone said that he’s inscrutable, but I say he’s just a scum. He...”

Callie’s pretty face sank after hearing her assistant insulted Alexander. ‘How dare she say that?!"
“How many years have you been working for me, five or six?” Callie looked at her chatty young female assistant with a grim face. “You've worked hard all these years. Go to the finance department and collect this year’s salary. Never again show up in front of me.
“Get out of here right now!”
The female assistant was shocked. She turned her head to look at Callie, her eyes instantly filled with tears. “Miss Xanthos, did | say something wrong? Please don’t be angry, I...”
Callie did not give a second chance. She waved her hand to dismiss the assistant.
Two security guards immediately rushed into the office and dragged the assistant away.
“It can only be you, Alexander. No one else will do.....” Callie walked to the floor-to-ceiling window,
looking in the direction of Ol‘ Mare far away. Her pretty face blushed. She stood there for a long
time before turning and walking toward the door.
“Prepare my private jet. | want to get to Ol‘ Mare immediately!”
She did not want to wait any longer. She had to see Alexander, the legendary uncrowned king of Ol
Mare, who had her heart in a chokehold.
