Alex glanced at Autumn before regarding Desmond with an impassive look on his face. He snorted and said, “You have been unlucky since the start of this year, right? Besides this accident today, you must’ve been involved in other accidents, right?” 

Desmond gazed at Alex in astonishment. 

He was indeed terribly unlucky this year. Earlier this year, he was involved in a car accident. If he wasn’t in his extremely durable Hummer, he would’ve lost his life. 

Even so, his driver had died on the spot while he suffered from broken ribs. He was hospitalized for two months before he was discharged. 

Right now, Desmond broke out into a cold sweat as he pulled the jade pendant off his neck and threw it 

away. 

The crowd immediately backed away to avoid being hit by the cursed pendant. 

A flash of shock appeared in Autumn’s eyes. She no longer doubted Alex’s words./ 

Upon seeing Desmond’s reaction, Alex sneered silently. If he hadn’t reminded Desmond today, the young man would’ve died within this year. 

“Who are you?” Desmond gritted his teeth and demanded. 

He knows a lot about me. Is he sent by a rival? he wondered. 

“I am someone you shouldn’t mess with,” Alex returned coolly and turned to leave. 

Desmond thought Alex was uttering nonsense and wanted to escape, so he hurriedly hollered, “Take him! How dare you lie to me? Someone must’ve ordered you to do this!” 

“I shouldn’t mess with you? Ha! I call the shots in Gorden City!” 

He ordered, “Take him down and break his legs. I want to know who sent him here!“. 

Desmond was certain it was a business rival who had sent Alex here. Otherwise, the man wouldn’t have known about his car accident earlier this year. 

Meanwhile, Autumn’s frown deepened. Her instincts told her Alex wasn’t a swindler. 

Strangely, she trusted Alex without hesitation. 

At his orders, the bodyguards took action and stopped Alex from leaving. 

“Is this how a Jones repays someone who had just saved his life?” 

Alex’s gaze darkened as he kicked a burly bodyguard blocking his way. He moved swiftly toward Desmond and grabbed his collar. 

“What are you doing? Let me down if you don’t want to die a horrible death!” As Desmond was lifted into the air, he yelled in horror and threatened. 

The other bodyguards dared not act recklessly as their boss was lifted off the ground.
