His Marvelous Life Starts After Divorce Chapter 398
Frederick ignored Fiona and went back to his room to rest.It wasn't until evening that the sound of unsteady footsteps alerted him to Anya's return.He rushed out to find Anya stumbling in, clearly intoxicated."Sweetheart, you've had too much to drink," Frederick said, offering his support. Unused to his touch, Anya quickly pulled away. "I'm not drunk! Don't touch me!"Frederick eyed her doubtfully. Her vehement denial only highlighted the way she wobbled, threatening to lose her balance entirely.Fearful that his beloved bride-to-be might fall and injure herself, Frederick had a sudden idea. Since Anya refused his help, he decided to lie down on the ground, hoping to cushion her fall and avoid her wrath.Anya screamed as she fell to the ground, fear draining the color from her face.The fall undoubtedly would be a face-first meeting with the ground, a classic "face-plant" that could leave her fractured.Instinctively, she squeezed her eyes shut.However, the anticipated p

Anya's voice was clipped as she answered the phone, her impatience barely veiled beneath forced politeness."Hello, Mr. Ben. I'm afraid I've reached my limit… Huh? What's the issue about the corporation? Do we really need another round? I..."Anya's frustration was evident. She'd already sacrificed her afternoon, forgoing a visit to see the new branch office hires in favor of this drawn-out drinking session with Mr. Ben.To have him backtrack now was beyond aggravating.Yet, the potential value of this deal couldn't be ignored. Anya gritted her teeth and agreed to another meeting.The moment she hung up, Frederick appeared with a steaming bowl of soup in his hands. "Sweetheart, here's some hangover soup. Have some of this to help you sober up."Anya gently took the soup from Frederick, who was wearing an apron. "Hangover soup? Did you make this for me?"Frederick nodded slightly. "Yes, sweetheart. It's not good for you to sleep after drinking so much. This will help you sober up

Frederick was stunned. "The team leader's back... but how does that concern me?"Melissa lowered her voice. "I just saw him whispering with Grace, and they even mentioned your name."Frederick's eyes widened. "The team leader and Grace? Are they involved?"Melissa clapped a hand over Frederick's mouth, her eyes wide with alarm. "Keep it down! The team leader is petty, and he's not someone you want as an enemy."Glancing around to ensure they were alone, Melissa leaned in closer. "Once, during lunch, I overheard something compromising in the women's restroom involving the team leader and another woman."Frederick wasn't slow on the uptake; he grasped the implication immediately. "The team leader and Grace?"Melissa confirmed with a subtle nod. "Yes. It's them. I haven't shared this with anyone else, but since you've crossed Grace, I'm concerned the team leader might target you. Please be careful."Frederick could sense the genuine concern in Melissa's voice. She was a long-time e

Frederick offered a helpless smile. It was impossible to miss the distress written all over Olivia's face.Olivia stammered, her eyes welling up with tears, "It's just... About what happened before, Frederick. I don't know what to do. I'm so scared."Frederick struggled to understand her statement, but the mention of the past immediately brought to mind yesterday's incident where Grace had slapped Olivia. Had Grace just blocked Olivia and slapped her again?The thought ignited Frederick's fury. "Did Grace bully you again?" Olivia hastily grabbed his arm. "No, Frederick, it wasn't her. It's something else. Please don't ask anymore."Just then, a bald man stumbled over and shouted, "Hey, hey, hey!"When Frederick didn't react, the man slammed his hand on the desk. "Hey, I'm talking to you! Are you deaf?" Others chimed in, saying, "Frederick, the team leader is calling you."Frederick turned, recognizing the man as Marsh, Grace's lover. He pointedly ignored Marsh's rude summon

Marsh snatched up the employee handbook and pointed at Frederick. "This rule explicitly prohibits insulting colleagues. You just implied I was brain-dead. Isn't that a violation of company rules? We don't tolerate such language here. Get out, now!"Marsh felt secretly pleased. He had anticipated a struggle with Frederick, but Frederick had foolishly chosen to fight using the very rules Marsh himself had helped Ivy create.Frederick feigned innocence and countered, "Calling someone 'brain-dead' is an insult? Let's ask everyone then. Did I insult him? You're just bullying me because I'm new."Marsh said coldly, "Don't try to twist things. 'Brain-dead' means 'idiot,' doesn't it? Isn't that an insult?"Frederick widened his eyes and replied, "Oh my, I didn't realize 'brain-dead' meant 'idiot'! I thought it meant having an intellectual disability."Marsh snapped angrily, "Isn't that the same thing?"Frederick calmly replied, "How could an intellectual disability equate to being an idi

Frederick quickly explained to Ivy, "Ms. Mallin, I didn't insult him. Is stating someone is bald an insult? Isn't he bald?"Ivy couldn't help but chuckle as she glanced at Marsh's shiny pate.Of course, he was bald.Seeing Ivy's reaction, Frederick quickly continued, "I was simply stating a fact. Are we going to be fired for telling the truth in this company?"Ivy paused for a moment. Anya wanted to keep Frederick, and calling someone bald wasn't a major offense.Maintaining a stern facade, she said, "You caused such a commotion over something so trivial? Frederick, don't mention Marsh's baldness again." With that, Ivy returned to her office.Marsh glared daggers at Frederic and seethed with anger. Initially, he wanted to give Frederick a hard time because of Grace, but now his hatred for Frederick surpassed even Grace's.However, seeing Ivy's attitude, it was clear that firing Frederick was out of the question. Marsh was lividFrederick said to Marsh with a smirk, "Sir, co

Marsh's words stunned everyone. Their team leader was choosing Grace over his own team. A chorus of complaints erupted."Grace called us bitches too, but no one from their team got their pay docked!"Marsh smiled faintly and replied righteously, "Lax management is Team Two's problem, not mine. My team has strict rules. It doesn't matter who insulted whom, you will all face consequences."You're letting a newcomer lead you astray. He doesn't get paid this month, so he has nothing to lose. But what about you? You're all rallying behind Frederick, so let him cover your 300-dollar deduction each."Marsh's words clearly planned to shift the blame onto Frederick.Wasn't Frederick supposed to be capable? He would see how capable he was.Indeed, many began to resent Frederick. After all, it was due to his influence that they had insulted others yesterday.If Frederick didn't step up now, it wouldn't sit well with them.Frederick understood Marsh's intentions. Money wasn't an issue fo

Marsh broke out in a cold sweat at the indignant team.He wasn't foolish; he knew Ivy wouldn't fire the entire team just to appease him.He turned to Melissa and coldly questioned, "What's your relationship with Frederick that you're so quick to defend him?"Melissa proudly linked arms with Frederick and said, "Why don't you guess?"Marsh's face darkened. Melissa was one of the prettiest and youngest members of the team.She might not have been as stunning as Ivy or Priscilla, but she was easily on par with Grace. And unlike Grace, whose acne-prone skin and faint wrinkles dampened any desire, Melissa radiated an innocent charm.Marsh had tried to make a move on her before, but she'd never responded, leaving him to settle for the more amenable Grace.Seeing that Frederick had won Melissa over on his second day only fueled Marsh's anger. But he couldn't risk alienating the entire team. Suddenly, an idea sparked in his mind."Fine, kid, you want to play the hero? I'll give you a

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
His Marvelous Life Starts After Divorce Chapter 762
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
