His Lordship Alexander Kane

Chapter 0041

Fear shot through Herbert as he stared at Zoe’s headless body and decapitated head on the floor. Soon, an unpleasant warmth spread in his pants, immediately followed by a chilling sensation.

He had not only wet himself, but he was so terrified that he soiled his pants! The terrified Herbert sobbed, “M-—Mister Kane!”

His voice broke into a higher pitch as he rushed forward, punching and kicking Zoe’s headless corpse, crying out desperately, “It was her fault! She madedo it! She askedto send Olivia to the dogfighting arena! She wanted the dogs to maul her! It had nothing to do with me! Nothing!”

Herbert continued, “She seducedand slept with me... | don’t deserve to die! I’ve realized my mistake, and I'll beg for your forgiveness!! know my mistake now!”

While sobbing, he fell to his knees and slammed his forehead onto the ground. He groveled and repeatedly bowed to Alexander, his body

hitting the floor. Blood oozed as his forehead broke. His blood mingled with the blood spilling from Zoe’s severed neck, and blood pooled around.

Alexander speedily covered Amber’s eyes when Zoe’s head hit the floor. Then, he nodded to Maxine, signaling her to clean up the bloodstains and Zoe's body quickly.

Once the cleanup was complete, he looked down at Herbert and calmly said, “I'll spare your life, but you're still going to pay for your

actions! For each guest that comes, bow and plea for mercy once. If you miss one, it’s a death sentence.” Maxine had finished cleaning the body and was back, gripping her longsword tightly.

If Herbert dared not to bow, he would be killed off instantly.

“The hour of celebration is here!”

It was high noon precisely, and every second accounted for. All the hotel staff outside the main entrance of the Grand Dynasty Hotel raised their voices in unison, shouting, “Welcto Grand Dynasty Hotel! Please enter the venue!”

A deafening rumble echoed as the crowd surged forward, rushing into the venue. Countless guests, all adorned in vibrant attire, shouted their well wishes to her as she played at the amusement park.

“Happy Birthday, Miss Kane!”

“May you be filled with wisdom and grace, Miss Olivia Kane!”

“We wish the birthday girl a long and healthy life, with joy and happiness all year round!” Amid this chorus of congratulatory cheers, there was an untimely outburst from Herbert.

“Miss Kane, I’m sorry. Please forgive me! Auntie Zoe should’ve never taken you to the dogfighting arena or let the dog bite you... We're

here to bow to you!”

Before the guests even entered the venue, Herbert's forehead had turned into a mangled mess. The stench from his soiled pants filled the air, causing the guests to frown in disgust.

“Hmph!” Alexander snorted coldly. Herbert’s pathetic state and the foul odor were dampening the festive atmosphere.

Olivia, the little princess of the Temple of War, made her way to the center of the stage, basking in the genuine blessings from residents of Ol‘ Mare. Being the center of attention, she smiled as she relished the happiest day of her life.

Meanwhile, the sight of Herbert bowing and wailing, along with the more than one hundred bodyguards lying on the ground in agony, was an eyesore, disrupting the festive ambiance of the event.

Alexander looked at Herbert, saying coldly, “Listen up, Herbert. If you clean up your act and start afresh, there’s still a glimmer of hope for you. Otherwise, you'll face no mercy! Now, crawl out of here on your knees and get lost!”

The sudden stream of guests overwhelmed Herbert, and his numerous kowtows left him disoriented. Even Alexander's words became

After a dozen or so more knocks, Herbert finally dropped to his knees, groveling and rolling out in fear. Meanwhile, the ears of the Dorvall family bodyguards were still bleeding profusely.

Maxine tossed them all out the door, causing them to tumble and cry out in pain. They covered their ears and sought medical attention.

Shailed cabs, others took public transportation, all while wailing in distress. “Phew!” Alexander finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Peace was restored.

He turned, took Amber’s delicate hand, and gazed into her eyes affectionately. The birthday celebration could finally begin.

Olivia stood at the center of the stage. She giggled in delight as she was surrounded by clusters of flowers. She opened her arms and said, “Daddy, Mommy, cquickly! So many people are here to celebrate my birthday!”

Alexander smiled warmly, walking hand in hand with Amber toward the stage. However, they had only taken a few steps when... “Daddy, Mommy...”

It could have been because she was too excited or that she lost energy after playing with her classmates, but the ecstatic Olivia suddenly

stumbled and lost her balance.

Olivia fell headfirst into one of the light projectors in front of the stage.

*No!”

The moment Olivia stumbled, Alexander’s heart skipped a beat.

He released Amber’s wrist and appeared like a true bolt of lightning, instantly by Olivia’s side, securing her tiny frin his arms effortlessly just before she hit the ground.

“Olivia!” The horrified Amber, too, rushed over.

The guests who had been celebrating, the kindergarten teachers by the stage, the children, the parents, and even the joyful Patrick and Susanne, all turned their worried gazes to Olivia.

“Is the birthday girl alright?”

“| was so frightened; Miss Kane nearly hit the lightbox! Thank goodness Mister Kane arrived in time!”

“Letcheck on her. I'm a doctor!”

Alexander held Olivia and checked her pulse. Then, he waved to the concerned crowd with a reassuring smile.

“Thank you all for your concern. Olivia is fine! She’s just a little tired, given her tender age. The birthday party will continue as planned while | take her back to rest. | promise the feast and the birthday commemorative badges will be delivered as promised.”
