At that moment, the man who had just called Clark away, the captain of the fishing boat, a burly man with a big beard, walked towards Lex as if nothing had happened, dragging a fishing net along.

As he passed by, he suddenly leaned close to his ear.

whispered:

"Don't do anything unnecessary..."

Lex suddenly looked at the bearded man, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes, and his hands clenched into fists.

The bearded man, however, didn't seem to care and turned to look at Clark, who was still busy working.

"These are 'his' exact words. You decide what to do."

Upon hearing this, Lex deflated like a punctured balloon, his angry gaze gradually fading.

The clenched fist slowly loosened.

He returned to his previous state.

After that, he didn't say a word, walked around the bearded man to Clark's side, and started working with him.

...

Before dark, the fishing boat returned to the port dock.

The past few days have been very fruitful, but the journey has left everyone quite exhausted. As soon as we disembarked, we all headed home.

Clark, only.

He stood in the crowd, looking around for Lex, wanting to invite him for a drink and ask him something.

What exactly did he want to say to me on the ship?

He searched for a long time, until all the crew members on the ship had left, but he still couldn't find Lex.

He had no choice but to follow the others, carrying his luggage and heading home.

He didn't notice that among the countless boats moored at the dock, inside the cabin of a speedboat...

There was a pair of eyes watching him all along.

Lex, who had been hiding in the speedboat, didn't show his face until he was far away.

He stood there for a moment looking in the direction Clark had left, then started the speedboat beneath his feet.

Soon, he left the port, speeding away across the sea, leaving a long trail of waves behind him.

After driving for an unknown distance, he arrived at a small island.

Lex moored the speedboat at the shore, grabbed a flashlight, jumped off, and walked towards the center of the island.

After a while

A helicopter soared into the sky! After circling and adjusting its direction, it flew towards the horizon.

As night fell, the helicopter soared higher and higher until it broke through the clouds, and continued to rise.

suddenly!

After the helicopter reached a certain extreme altitude, accompanied by a loud rumble of machinery,

A huge hexagonal gap appeared in the sky!

Behind the gap was a passage that seemed to stretch endlessly, with countless obviously man-made mechanical devices fixed around its perimeter.

The moment the helicopter flew in, another sound of machinery whirring came from inside.

A giant elevator platform appeared.

Once the helicopter had come to a smooth stop on the landing platform, the gap in the sky abruptly closed.

It quickly returned to its normal appearance.

There was nothing unusual about it.

...

This was an incredibly spacious room, several hundred square meters in size.

The floor is covered with smooth marble tiles.

An expensive crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, its cool white light reflecting off the floor and illuminating the entire room.

At the far end of the room, there was a large desk, and a middle-aged man in a suit was sitting in front of it.

He was staring at the giant monitor in front of him, which was showing Clark on his way home.

Thump thump thump…

The sound of hurried footsteps approached from afar.

The door to the room was pushed open, and Lex strode in, stopping only behind the middle-aged man.

From the moment he entered until now, the man sitting at the desk has not reacted at all, not even turning his head.

With a plop,

Lex suddenly knelt on the ground, his expression bitter.

"I can't stand it,"

I don't want to continue!

Please, let him go!

"Father!!!"

...

Chapter 129 Collapse

Outside the town's church, the wedding was in full swing.

The bands on both sides were playing a melodious wedding march.

Those invited to the wedding were all dressed appropriately and offered Clark their best wishes.

He was wearing a white suit, looking dashing and full of confidence, his joy and excitement evident in his expression.

She was holding a bouquet of flowers and stood straight on the grass covered with rose petals.

He wanted to show Lana his most handsome side on this most important day of his life.

Just then, a group of people walked towards them and waved to Clark from a distance.

These were all the crew members Clark spent his days with on the fishing boat.

"Hey! Clark, congratulations, you little rascal!"

Paul, the ship's captain, stepped forward and gave Clark a warm hug, patting his back so hard with his large, muscular hands that he almost passed out.

But Clark was still very happy.

"Thank you, thank you so much for coming to my wedding!"

After saying that, he looked around the crowd again and asked in confusion:

Have you seen Lex?

Several people shook their heads, indicating they didn't know. Paul even joked:

"That kid's probably drunk again. After all, he used to like Lana."

He's probably hiding somewhere, drinking his sorrows away!

"Hahaha."

The group burst into laughter.

Clark chuckled a few times, then gestured for them to sit down.

A little while later, Martha and Jonathan came to Clark's side by side.

They were all dressed in proper formal attire, and their eyes were full of relief and affection as they looked at Clark.

But for some reason, there was always a hint of sorrow in his eyes.

Clark, my child.

We are so happy for you; you are our pride.

"Mom, Dad, thank you."

Clark smiled and stepped forward, giving each of them a big hug.

"I will always love you!"

After the hug, Clark glanced at the clock outside the church.

In just a few minutes, the wedding ceremony will officially begin.

But Lex has not yet shown up.

He was a little anxious because the wedding rings for the formal proposal would still be on Lex's hand after the vows were recited.
