His Lordship Alexander Kane

Right at that moment... Slam!

Aman appeared. He smashed through the metal cage and swung his leg toward the three vicious dogs. The dogs were tougher than humans, yet they instantly died from the man’s single kick!

Everyone gasped. They looked at that man, dumbfounded. Who was he? How terrifyingly strong! Vernon subconsciously took a few steps back. “W—Who are you? Don’t you know what this place is?” Vernon's expression then changed as he looked at that man in sheer shock. “Alexander Kane?!”

It was Alexander!

“| know you.” Alexander’s gaze was so sharp that it could cut through Vernon. He glared at Vernon murderously. “You’re Vernon Smith, one of the Chesire family’s butlers!”

Vernon might seem like an honest man, but no one saw just how ruthless he truly was. He would not even have mercy on a little girl!

That girl was his daughter!

Alexander slowly turned to face the little girl, who was crying in the corner. “Olivia? Is that you?”

His heart broke at the sight of the battered girl.

He was the Lord of War. He ruled the world and had thousands of soldiers under him. He was world-renowned!

All that, yet his only child was locked up in a dog cage to be entertainment for others. She was almost bitten to death, too!

Vernon sneered. “And here | was, wondering who it was. Didn’t you die in battle? Since you're not dead, you should just keep your head low! You're just a nobody. How dare you kick Miss Chesire’s dogs?”

There was silence.

Alexander suddenly turned and ran up to Vernon. He grabbed Vernon by the neck and lifted him.

Vernon's face was flushed. “What are you doing, you loser?!”

“What am | doing, you ask?” Alexander looked murderous. “You wanted to feed my daughter to the dogs, right?”

He then took Vernon to where a hundred bloodthirsty battle dogs were waiting, jumping about. Their eyes reddened. Vernon looked terrified. “How dare you! Miss Chesire will never—”

Before he could finish, Alexander threw him to the dogs. Vernon's miserable wails were mixed into a cacophony of agitated barks.

Vernon was torn into pieces alive by a hundred dogs.

Alexander sneered. No one would get away with hurting his daughter.

“Olivia...” Alexander slowly walked over to Olivia and bent down. He hugged her into his arms. Even if he was mighty, he still choked up at that moment.

He embraced his terrified, distraught daughter. “I’m sorry. I’m late.”

After a long while, Olivia stopped crying.

“Sir...” She looked up at Alexander’s reddened eyes and wiped away his tears. “Are you my Daddy? But... Mommy said my Daddy is dead. She said that Daddy is a national hero.

“You're not my Daddy. My Daddy is dead!” Alexander felt his heart breaking as he caressed Olivia's head and pressed her tightly to his chest.

“Olivia, Mommy lied to you. Your Daddy isn’t dead.” He was silent for a long time. He wiped away Olivia's tears before saying gently, “Why did Mommy get the dogs to bite you?”

Olivia suddenly looked up and blinked before she shook her head. “You’re wrong! Mommy wouldn't let the dogs bite me. Mommy treats me the best! It was Auntie who got the dogs to bite me... She always bullies me and Mommy. She doesn't let us go home, either.”

Auntie? Alexander was baffled. Olivia called Zoe ‘Auntie’? If so, who was her mother? He heard the conversation clearly by the door of the mansion. Was Olivia not his daughter with Zoe?This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“You're the smartest, Olivia.” Alexander suppressed his heartbreak and forced a smile. “Well then, what is your Auntie’s name? Do you know?”

Olivia said, “Of course! Her name is Zoe Chesire, and she’s Mommy’s cousin.” Olivia continued, “I also know that Daddy married into their family, but | still took over my Daddy’s last name. My name is Olivia Kane.”

At that, tears welled up in Olivia’s eyes once more. “B—But Auntie always forces me to call her Mommy. She'd beat me if | didn’t!” The girl broke into sobs.

“Are you...really my Daddy? Mommy’s voice got hurt while trying to save Daddy in the accident. She can’t speak, but she taught me this...”

Olivia got out of Alexander’s arms. She wrote on his palm the name ‘Alexander Kane’.

She looked up at Alexander tearfully. She choked up and said, “Mommy taught me how to write. Could you understand what | wrote? They wouldn’t let me go to school, so my handwriting is terrible.”

Alexander stiffened at the revelation. It felt like a bomb went off in his mind, and his heart almost stopped beating. ‘Rescued Daddy.’ ‘Accident.’ ‘Hurt her voice.’ ‘Could not talk.’

Did this mean that the woman who risked her life to save him from the accident was not...Zoe?

Zoe was not a mute. Was she not Olivia’s mother and his wife?

Who, then, was the one who got married to him and spent the night with him?

“Olivia.” Alexander looked at Olivia. His voice trembled. “What is your Mommy’s name?”

Olivia was a little taken aback by this question, and tears immediately fell. She sobbed and trembled.

“You're a liar! You’re not my Daddy! You don’t even know Mommy’s name! My Mommy is Amber Chesire!”
