Chapter 348 - You are mine (1/2)

Aleksis couldn't believe her brother would sell her so easily just to secure his position in a stupid poll!

Just you wait, she thought while pursing her lips. She will get some poisonous snakes and send them to her brother's house. She would enjoy listening to him screaming and yelling and record it as her bargaining chip for the next time she wanted him to do things her way.

A smile etched on her lips as she was thinking about it. It was then that Mel realized that the two were indeed siblings, because Aleksis and Terry were too alike, especially when they were angry like this. She finally smiled and didn't ask again.

”Anjali ... are we going to let the girl act all pretentious like that?” asked one of her cronies, looking at Aleksis in annoyance.

Anjali shook her head, ”Of course not, but we shouldn't openly disturb her in front of Terry, I don't want Terry to hate me.”

”Then what are your plans?”

”We will wait until Terry takes off. I will make her pay. Just because she is Terry's relative, it doesn't mean that she can act however she wants and not be respectful toward seniors.”

Anjali couldn't accept that there was another queen bee on campus, and she had thought of ways to get rid of Aleksis.

Alaric woke up at 6am and she immediately remembered that she had not called Aleksis as he had promised before leaving. Too many things had happened last night, when he met Sophia, his cousin.

Yes, he, Alaric apparently had a cousin ... and now he finally knew about his origins. He knew what his mother's name was, and who his family was ...

Apparently, he was not alone, as there are hundreds of people like him out there. They also had young and perfect appearances and lived as immortals. Sophia herself was already over 200 years old, older than him, but she still looked like she was 24 years old.

He later learned that for the Alchemists, time was in their hands, so they were not in a hurry to formalize their their marriage commitment and to have children. That was why they were so few in number.

It was very different from ordinary people who got married so easily, then got divorced as easily. They had many children but were not capable of taking care of them properly, causing so many children to suffer.

Indeed, he felt that the ideal Alchemist order was the best order for this planet. Their small numbers, conservative culture and view on commitment made them the most ideal people to roam the earth.

Ordinary people must learn from the Alchemist clan about this ideal way of life ...

Ah ... there was still so much he wanted to know about these Alchemists. He couldn't wait to see Sophia again soon and meet the person she was referring to last night.

But before that, he had to contact Aleksis. Alaric took out his phone and found several messages and missed calls from Aleksis last night that he didn't have time to open.

Guilt filled his chest. Ah, it's 6 o'clock in the morning, meaning it's 2pm  in Singapore. He should call his wife and ask about her condition. He missed Aleksis' voice.
