Chapter 2

Author: Seven Nights of Frost
The moment he turned away, Frederick decided that he would forget about Priscilla.

Seeing him leave, Priscilla felt a tugging ache in her heart. She shook her head to clear her thoughts.

She was determined to be the best businesswoman in the world, and Frederick would only be a stumbling block on her way to success! If she did not cut ties with him, it would be disadvantageous to her plan!

"Haha! Prissy, the scumbag's finally gone. Let's go for a nice candlelight dinner!"

Seeing that they were now divorced, Wade rubbed his palms together and licked his lips gleefully. He gave Priscilla a good look, all the way from her sexy legs up to her exquisite face.

Priscilla frowned slightly. "I have some matters to deal with tonight. I haven't got time to have dinner with you.

"Didn't you say that you were going to help me deal with the divorce procedures? Here, deliver this card to Frederick for me. There are ten million dollars in here. Also, please call me by my name properly in the future."

Then, Priscilla pushed the card into Wade's hands. She immediately turned and got into her car. Stepping on the accelerator, she sped away without another word.

Looking at the car speeding away, Wade clenched his fists tightly and spat rudely on the ground.

"Pah! Playing hard to get, are we? Someday, I'm going to fucking have my way with you!"

He then stashed the card into his pocket and grinned slyly. "Since the asshole doesn't want it, I'll keep this for him then."

In Danbury Corporation, Theodore Danbury stood in his office, the president's office, as he stared at the sky wide-eyed. He was silent for a long while.

Theodore's daughter, Vivianne, looked at her father, bewildered. A strange firework explosion had appeared in the sky for a brief moment earlier on, and she found her father in his current dazed state.

As president of Danbury Corporation, Theodore had seen many bizarre things happen in his days, but never had he lost his composure as he had at the moment.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Vivianne's voice brought Theodore back to the present. He gulped dryly and muttered, "The miracle doctor shall appear when the Cloudbreaker is released."

Theodore's mumbles made absolutely no sense to Vivianne at all. She was at a loss.

Theodore swiftly whipped out his phone and made a call. "Mr. York, I saw the Cloudbreaker being released. Do you have any orders? Whatever you need, the entirety of the Danbury family will give all we have to help you!

"What? Your wife requested a divorce with you, and she was the one who released the Cloudbreaker?"

When Theodore angrily ended the call, Vivianne quickly asked, "Dad, what's gotten into you today? Who's this Mr. York? And why are you willing to give everything you have to help him?"

Theodore furiously smashed his phone to the ground. "Mr. York is my savior! Three years ago, when you were still abroad, it was Mr. York who cured me of my terminal illness.

"How ungrateful of the Miller family! Had it not been for Mr. York, why would the Monroe family have any business dealings with them? And how would they have all the success and glory they have today? Now that they've made a fortune, their daughter wants to divorce Mr. York?"

Vivianne was shocked to hear what Theodore said. "No wonder the Monroe family in Stanva City would keep helping out such a small family like the Millers! But now that the Monroe family has helped them for Mr. York's sake, it really is unbelievable that they'd demand a divorce!"

Theodore spoke respectfully of him, "Mr. York had saved the patriarch of the Monroe family, so they respect him a lot. They are loyal to him, as am I.

"I'm afraid nobody in the entire nation has medical skills as superb as Mr. York's."

Vivianne seemed pleasantly surprised to hear that. "That's amazing! We can get Mr. York's help to get us through our issue then! After all, we are only in such a situation because of our collaboration with the Miller family."

Theodore shook his head helplessly. "Mr. York had said three years ago that he would not practice medicine anymore. How could I possibly ask him to go back on his word?

"The Miller family has brought us a great loss, and it is only for Mr. York's sake that I didn't take action against them. Now, I'll handle business the way it should be handled.

"I will announce the termination of our collaboration with the Millers, and have them compensate for the loss."

Vivianne's expression took a turn for the worse when she heard Theodore's words. But in a flash, she turned her attention to his phone, which was on the ground.

    In the Miller mansion, Priscilla's mother, Marianne Sacher, flipped through the divorce papers with a wide smile on her face. Her smile was so wide that the edges of her eyes wrinkled up."What great news! Pris has finally got a divorce from her good-for-nothing husband! I'll look into your marriage with Pris in a few days, Wade. Does your promise of a jewelry shop as a wedding gift still stand?"Wade hurriedly patted his chest and assured Marianne, "Rest assured, Mrs. Miller. The day I marry Pris will be the day you become the owner of a jewelry shop."Marianne was delighted to hear Wade's guarantee. Her daughter, who was a divorcee, in exchange for a jewelry shop. What a bargain!All of a sudden, she caught sight of a clause on the divorce papers. Priscilla had just agreed to pay Frederick an alimony of ten million dollars.

    Somewhere in Jenaire City, Frederick lounged on a couch in a hilltop mansion. He was in the middle of a phone call."I haven't got any orders for you. If anything crops up, I'll be sure to contact you."He let out a long sigh of relief after he ended the call. He'd answered too many calls today.Three years ago, when Frederick returned to Jenaire City, he had saved many people. All these people wanted to repay his kindness, but Frederick had no need for their help at that point. So, he came up with the Cloudbreaker and told them that if he ever needed help from them, he would release the Cloudbreaker.He had then given the Cloudbreaker to Priscilla, knowing that with these people's powers, they would be able to help her fulfill any wish that she had.Since Priscilla had released the Cloudbreaker today, all these people thought that Frederick needed something from them. Hence, they all called him in hopes of being able to repay him for saving them back then."Mr. York, is this m

    Frederick narrowed his eyes. He dodged and snatched the dagger away from Mitchell in a flash.Not expecting him to move so swiftly, Mitchell lunged forward and fell heavily to the ground.When Marianne saw her son fall, she hurried into the mansion to check on him.Frederick's gaze on Mitchell was frosty as he gripped the dagger in his hand. For three years of his marriage, he had treated Mitchell like his own brother. Now that he had just gotten a divorce from Priscilla, Mitchell actually wanted to take his life? How ungrateful!Frederick threw the dagger forcefully at Mitchell. With a squelch, the blade buried itself into his thigh."Ahh!"Mitchell grabbed at his right thigh in utter shock as he watched his blood trickle down along the blade of the dagger. He was in such pain that he broke out in cold sweat.What was going on? Why hadn't the blade retracted into the hilt as it had earlier on? Had he really stabbed Frederick with it, wouldn't he have committed murder?Marianne

When Marianne came to her senses, Mitchell was already severely injured.Marianne walked up to Mitchell, sobbing with empathy as she shouted at the man angrily, "Who the hell are you? I swear I won't let you off the hook!"The man's voice was void of emotion. "My name is William Quinta. If you want to avenge your son in the future, feel free to do it."Ms. Danbury wants me to kill his damned life, but I've only broken his arm so far." As the man in black spoke, he put on a cruel smile. He was about to attack Mitchell again.When Marianne heard William's words, she flew into a rage. She was about to shout at him, but Mitchell had already gone pale in the face behind her.Acc

    "Stop!" Just then, a middle-aged man's breathless voice rang out.When Vivianne saw the person, her expression instantly changed. The man was none other than her father, Theodore.Theodore hastily apologized to Frederick. "Mr. York, please forgive my daughter's ignorance."When Frederick heard that Vivianne was Theodore's daughter, the cold air around him slowly dissipated."So, she's your daughter."It was only then that William put away the scimitar in his hands. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief.At the back, Vivianne was so mad that she stomped her feet. "Dad, this jerk won't help me."I want Mr. Quinta to teach him a lesson."Frowning, Theodore reprimanded her. "You're the jerk here. Hurry up and apologize to Mr. York."If not, I'll be the one teaching you a lesson."Vivianne puffed up her cheeks in anger, but she didn't dare to disobey Theodore. She walked up to Frederick and then spoke, dragging out her vowels in reluctance. "I'm sorry, Mr. York."After learning of

    When Theodore heard William's words, he was shocked. He knew William's capabilities very well.For many years, William had defended him from various attacks.Ten years ago, William had sealed his scimitar in its scabbard, for he couldn't encounter anyone worthy of unsheathing his blade.Was Frederick's murderous intent strong enough that William would be forced to draw his scimitar, which he hadn't taken out in ten years?"Could it be that Mr. York is a very skilled fighter?"How much of a difference is there between you and him?"William said in a stern voice, "His strength is unfathomable. If we fight, I may very well lose my life."Theodore took in a sharp breath. He only knew that Frederick's medical skills were outstanding, but he didn't expect Frederick to be such a skilled fighter as well.He asked William, "What do you think if Vivianne gets married to him?"William pondered for a moment. Then, he nodded firmly. "It could take the Danburys to greater heights."…In a

    At the side, Marianne hastily put on a pitiful front as she said, "Demand justice? Frederick is a powerful man now. He's not someone we can mess with."As it turns out, he received a large inheritance from his parents. He then bought a huge villa and funded a woman who came from nowhere."Mitch learned about this, so he went there to demand an explanation from him for your sake. But then, that woman found a hooligan who beat Mitch up."Priscilla couldn't believe her ears when she heard what Marianne said.In all those years, Frederick had stashed away so much money without her knowledge.He even funded another woman!Priscilla instantly felt like she had been mistreated, and jealousy wrought her heart as well. "Mom, is everything you said the truth?"Marianne pointed at Mitchell. "Can these wounds be fake?"Go to the hilltop mansion and take a look. He's living there with that woman right now."Priscilla wiped away the tears on her face. At that moment, her heart was utterly b

    Grace was just a normal female employee in a company. After Priscilla started earning money, she appointed Grace as her secretary.After becoming the president's secretary, she became arrogant. She looked down on Frederick, who had to depend on his wife for survival. So, she spoke harshly."What do you mean, turned out like this? He simply revealed his true colors."When Priscilla heard that, her frown deepened. "Grace, do you mean that he was like this from the get-go?"Grace nodded firmly. Then, she narrowed her eyes as if she had seen through everything."Think about it. You two were married for so long, and you were always busy with your career. How many times have you slept with him?"When Priscilla heard that, her face turned a little red. They were close, but they still shouldn't talk about these topics.Grace continued, "All men have needs in that aspect. Also, they don't like dominant women."Frederick probably couldn't endure it any longer, so he started funding a wom

    Mary's case was the most severe, while Ivan's symptoms were the mildest, and Frederick could roughly deduce the sequence of transmissions among them. It was clear that Mary infected Nigel, who then passed it to Kimberly, then finally passed it to Ivan. Frederick also saw that Ivan was actually a decent person who unfortunately ended up being betrayed and infected. However, Nigel was primarily worried that Ivan might start trusting Frederick, as he wanted Ivan to believe in his capabilities to carry out his plan.Originally, he intended for Mary to insult Frederick for being poor and unskilled, but she ended up attacking him for having an unpleasant odor, which backfired when Frederick exposed her for contracting syphilis. Now, Nigel had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, he then said to Frederick, "Hehe, Frederick. We all know Ivy is a director, what exactly do you do to be worthy of her?"Nigel assumed that Frederick was just a low-level salesperson, something

    Hearing Frederick's words, Kimberly jumped with joy and stopped crying. While wiping her tears, she pointed at Mary, laughing and said, "You're covered in syphilis, yet you're making fun of me.""Slut, I wonder how many people you've slept with!" After being pointed and insulted, Mary was furious and she was ready to fight Kimberly. "You bitch! I am going to teach you a lesson!" At this moment, Nigel felt terrible. If Mary was diseased, he'd be the first victim. He grabbed Mary and shouted, "Bitch, let me teach you a lesson first. Now I know why you always wanted the lights off! I thought you were shy, but you just didn't want me to find out."In a fit of anger, Nigel slapped Mary hard across the face. Just as Mary was about to explain, she was interrupted by another slap. Holding her face, she yelled angrily, "Nigel, how dare you hit me?! Do you want me to expose all your little schemes and tricks?"Nigel froze in horror; if Mary exposed him, it would have been disastrous.

    Kimberly heard her laughter, and body odor had always been a sensitive issue for her; a wound she'd tried to cover up over the years. For Frederick to bring it up in front of everyone felt like rubbing salt into an open wound. Yet what hurt even more was Mary's laughter; as a fellow woman, it felt like salt to the wound, then roasting it. Kimberly was furious, pointed at Mary and said, "What are you laughing at? Do you want me to come over there and shut you up?"Mary felt wronged, she had only let out a reflexive laugh, but now Kimberly's anger was directed at her. "Did I laugh at you? What proof do you have that I laughed at you?""You're the one with body odor, yet you're taking it out on others. You're such an unreasonable woman!"Kimberly grew even angrier after hearing Mary's retort. "You're the one with body odor, your whole family has it!" "Look at what you're wearing, it's like you just threw on two pillowcases. You're a shameless woman, just trying to show off t

    When everyone heard Ivy's words, they laughed even more. Her words effectively confirmed that Frederick did indeed have an unpleasant odor. It wasn't entirely her fault as Kimberly's words had been a bit of a trap. "Haha, if you smell, just take a shower and don't embarrass yourself here.""With all that cheap stuff on, no wonder he has a smell."Hearing this, Frederick simply gave a slight smile and then asked Mary and Kimberly, "Are two really that fragrant?"Mary and Kimberly lifted their heads proudly after hearing Frederick's words. "Why don't you ask everyone here, ask them if we smell good or not?""Exactly, go ahead and ask."Both of them considered themselves beautiful, and of course, they would smell pleasant. The men around them quickly chimed in, especially those eager to admire Mary, who was dressed in a way that gave them a bit of eye candy. "Of course, they smell good. How could these two beautiful ladies not smell good?""Hehe, Frederick with his cheap, th

    In a hidden corner, Nigel said to Mary, "Damn it, that bumpkin Frederick keeps stealing my spotlight. I am worried that our plan won't go well later.""You should help me humiliate him properly, and Ivan's girlfriend will back you up."Mary pursed her lips and said to Nigel, "Every time something comes up, you just ask me to handle it. My bag hasn't been bought yet, and you've lost 300 thousand dollars"Although Nigel was annoyed by Mary hitting a sore spot, he kept his tone calm and replied, "Help me humiliate Frederick and talk him down in front of Ivan. After that, leave the rest to me. Once it's done, I'll get you more than one bag, I could get you ten bags and it wouldn't be a problem. I don't care about that small amount of money. You saw that Porsche just now, right? I wouldn't mind burning it if I had to." Hearing this, Mary was delighted and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you, babe." She hadn't realized that Nigel was so wealthy and even had a Porsche. Up until th

    Knowing Martin as someone who knew a lot about wood, everyone immediately looked as though they were ready for a good show. They were convinced that the Saint George statue couldn’t possibly be made of anything valuable.Martin let out a strange exclamation. "What the hell!"Kimberly, thinking that Martin was angry, quickly said, "Mr. Lawson, tell us what’s so disastrous about this wood. Are you saying it’s just a piece of junk?"Contrary to expectations, Martin replied angrily, "I’m saying that whoever preserved this Saint George statue was a jerk. This is genuine sandalwood, and yet it’s completely neglected, covered in dust."Most of the group had no idea what sandalwood was worth, but judging by the name alone, it sounded impressive.Kimberly asked curiously, "Mr. Lawson, are you saying this is really antique wood?"Martin examined the statue carefully, scrutinizing every detail. "Judging by the texture, this carving must have been made at least 150 years ago."Everyone was

    "The Saint George statue was indeed a fitting choice for a karaoke." Nigel chuckled, turning to Ivy.“Why didn’t you just go on Amazon and buy a new one for a few dozen bucks? This one is obviously second-hand. Or was it picked up from some junk stall?”Frederick heard Nigel’s mockery and nodded in agreement, a faint smile on his lips. “You’re not wrong. This statue actually was picked up from a street stall.”“At the Treasure Hall in the antique trade market, no less. And yes, it’s an antique.”The truth was, the statue was from the Victorian era. Even the owner of Treasure Hall, Dominic, had recognized its age but dismissed it as worthless, tossing it onto a stall outside.Frederick had picked it up casually, thinking it would come in handy one day, and now it was the perfect gift for Ivan.Hearing this, Nigel burst out laughing, clutching his stomach. “An antique? Treasure Hall? You’re really trying to fool us.”Kimberly chimed in, her tone dripping with sarcasm as she glance

    The group’s attention was fully captured by Frederick’s words, their eyes all on him. Nigel, knowing that Kimberly had informed Ivy at the last minute and that she likely didn’t have a gift, sneered at Frederick."Well, if you’ve got a gift, go ahead and show it.""Considering Ivy and Kimberly’s relationship, the gift should be pretty decent, right?"Everyone was now staring at Frederick with anticipation, curious to see what kind of gift he could produce.Ivy, on the other hand, was completely flustered. She hadn’t handed any gift to Frederick, though she understood he was trying to help her out of a tough spot. But wasn’t this making things even more awkward?Nigel continued to press him, "Where’s the gift? Come on, take it out already.""After all this time, you still can’t take it out. Don’t tell me you don’t even have one."Frederick glanced at Nigel with a calm smile. "Oh? Are you planning to bet 300 grand with me again?"Nigel froze. There was no way he had another 300 t

    Ivan was deeply moved, feeling as though all the unpleasantness from their school days had been swept away. A sense of childhood nostalgia, unique to old classmates, welled up within him.The crowd continued to shower Nigel with praise, giving him thumbs up one after another."A gift worth 10 grand is no small amount. Nigel is truly generous.""That’s right. These days, even classmates hesitate to prepare gifts, but Nigel has shown such generosity.."Most of the attendees had come because of their connection with Kimberly. Each had prepared gifts with costs ranging from a few hundred dollars. Compared to Nigel’s grandiose gift worth 10 thousand, their contributions paled in comparison.Hearing the compliments, Nigel waved his hand dismissively, feigning modesty. "It’s nothing, really. After all, Ivan and I are good friends from way back."Then, Nigel’s expression shifted slightly as he added, "Speaking of good friends, I’m sure it’s not just me and Ivan here who share a special b
