Frederick was in a hurry to deal with Hades and his group of thugs. After seeing that Melissa was not listening to him, he quickly turned to Ivy and said, "Ms. Mallin, take Melissa and leave now!"Ivy hurriedly went up to pull Melissa away. Then, she whispered into Melissa's ear and said, "We won't be of much help by staying here with him. We can at least call the police and wait for him outside."Melissa felt that Ivy was making a lot of sense and agreed to leave with her.Seeing everyone leave, Hades quickly questioned Frederick, "Hey, everyone's gone now. Are you going to let him go now?"Frederick was just about to let the thug go when his phone began to ring. He answered his phone with one hand, while he held onto the thug with his other hand. At the same time, he promised the thug to not let him fall to the ground.The thug was currently cursing Frederick to death because of it. He could die if Frederick lost focus for even a second.It was Ursara calling. He asked, "Wher
Frederick didn't want to waste his breath on Hades as Hades would probably refuse to believe him no matter what he said.At that moment, Ursara rushed up the stairs with his own group of thugs behind him.Seeing Ursara coming at him angrily, Hades said, "Ursara, what do you think you're doing?"Ursara was currently looking at Hades like he was the devil. He said angrily, "We haven't settled our old debts yet. That bitch you follow around poisoned Mr. Duskfang. How dare you try and harm Mr. Duskfang's savior. You've crossed the line this time!"Hades was shocked as he looked at the number of people behind Ursara. But he couldn't back down as his underlings were all waiting to see his next move."Ursara, there's no need for any meaningless chatter. I know that you used him to trick me! You even hired a bunch of office workers to play the part. Where did you find so many extras?"Ursara couldn't hear what Hades was rambling on about. So, he said angrily, "Enough with the nonsense.
Hades felt humiliated as he listened to the insults Ursara hurled at him. He hated that Ursara had exposed his flaws in front of such a large crowd.He was filled with anger. He said, "Son of a bitch! Ursara, stop talking nonsense and fight me like a man."Ursara had planned on fighting Hades. He planned to beat Hades up before taking Nicole's ointment from Frederick."Mr. York, why don't you leave first? I'm afraid that you'll be caught in the crossfire when we start fighting later."Frederick had planned on taking down Hades and his men. But he might as well save his energy since Ursara wanted to fight them.He had a short fight with Ursara at Tigris' funeral. Although Frederick had not fought back and had been focused on dodging, he had grasped Ursara's capabilities to a certain extent.Ursara liked to fight with brute force, and Hades and Ursara had similar fighting styles. But from his performance earlier, it seemed Hades was slightly inferior in terms of power.Ursara also
"Hello? Anya, there's something I need to tell you. But you'd better prepare yourself first."Anya was in her mansion and was about to rest when she received Ivy's call. Hearing her words, Anya felt a bad feeling creeping into her heart."What's wrong? Has the feud between Priscilla and Team One's new leader not been resolved during the party?"Ivy felt like she was on the verge of tears. Priscilla and Frederick's feud was the least of her problems. But Ivy was afraid Anya would not be able to accept what had happened if she was too direct. So, she began beating around the bush and said, "So, the thing is, there was a lot of alcohol involved in the party. One of our employees drank so much that he's been admitted into the hospital."Anya frowned unhappily. Why did they have to drink to the point that they had been hospitalized? However, that didn't seem to be too big of a deal."Tell them to pay attention to how much they drink in public. Just let the hospital deal with him fo
Inside a high-end club, a tanned man with glasses was currently sitting in the middle of two gorgeous and sexy women. Suddenly, another man wearing sunglasses opened the door to his room and said, "Mr. Griffin, Mitchell has come to ask for your help."The tanned man was no other than Thomas Griffin, son of the renowned Brad Griffin.Thomas pushed his glasses up and placed his glass on the table. "Is he the same guy who caused Pegasus Industries to be shut down by authorities?"The man with the sunglasses said, "That's tight. He used to be responsible for Pegasus Industries, but he caused our company to be shut down. "He's probably out of options after being labeled as a criminal by the police. How dare he come and meet you? I'll go and teach him a lesson before chasing him away."Thomas' expression darkened as he said coldly, "He's a wanted criminal because he has been doing our company's dirty work. How will the people of the underworld view me if I refuse to see him?"What a
Mitchell added, "My mother's been arrested by the police because she had helped me escape."Thomas gave the situation some thought before he said impassively, "Well, this makes things a lot more complicated. I'll need to call in several favors and contacts."Due to his unwillingness to continue living like a criminal on the run, he quickly spoke out after seeing Thomas' reluctant expression. "But, Mr. Griffin—"Before he could finish his sentence, Thomas interrupted him and pushed the two women beside him toward Mitchell. "I'll arrange a place for you to lay low and give you some money if you run out of cash. The two ladies over here will be in charge of your meals and daily needs. "I'll also try my best to settle things as soon as I can. Are these arrangements alright with you?"The two ladies adeptly made their way toward Mitchell. One of the ladies began to blow in his ear while the other lady began to pour some alcohol for him.Mitchell had been feeling slightly reluctant
Mitchell's arms were wrapped around the two women when they nodded gently.Suddenly, they spotted a few policemen quietly creeping toward them. Mitchell was still lost in his fantasy of sleeping with the two women and did not sense the policemen slowly surrounding him.The two women locked eyes before rushing away from Mitchell's arms.Mitchell was dumbfounded and shouted, "Hey, where are you two going?"The two women quickly ran up to the police and said breathlessly, "Office, we don't know that man over there, but he keeps following us."The two women had been working for Thomas for a long time now. They understood how Thomas thought and this wasn't their first rodeo.They had already understood what they needed to do when Thomas had given them a look. They also knew Thomas had probably already arranged for someone to call the police.All they needed to do was calm and distract Mitchell before the police came. Once the police arrived, they would quickly deny all possibility
Frederick picked up the doll and sniffed it in confusion. The liquid covering the doll was just fruit juice, not fresh blood. So, who was the one behind such a prank?He immediately thought of Fiona. Who would have so much spare time on their hands other than that brat?It seemed like the whole ordeal with the orange juice and the mac and cheese wasn't enough to get her to remember her lesson.Frederick smirked and planned to go along with Fiona's plan. He wanted to see what she had planned for him.He opened the door and immediately felt a gust of cold wind. He looked inside and realized the four air conditioners around the house had been set to the lowest setting.It seemed that Fiona had gone all out as it wasn't cheap to keep all four air conditioners on.Frederick continued to play along and put on a terrified expression. "Why is it so cold here? Even the lights are still flickering. Is there a ghost here? I think it's best for me to head inside first."With that said, he l
