“I learned it from a wandering gypsy back when I was still in school. It’s really nothing to be proud of, nothing to brag about.” Alex smiled.

Lord Lex added, “Sir, you are one-of-a-kind and truly destined to do great things in the future!”

“Oh gosh, stop with the flattering.” Alex rolled his eyes.

“I was just telling the truth,” replied Lord Lex.
