When Frederick got home, Anya had already ordered takeout, finished eating, and had returned to her room to work.

Fiona was sitting on the couch waiting for Frederick York. When she saw him, she jumped up excitedly from the couch and embraced him tightly.

Frederick, feeling frightened, kept glancing upstairs as he gently placed Fiona back on the sofa and spoke in a quiet, nervous voice.

"Are you crazy? What if Anya sees this?"

Fiona Lane tilted her head back and said, "Now you're afraid of Ann?"

"How come you weren't afraid when you were being a gigolo for Jean and taking her luxury car?"

"I haven't told Ann about your situation yet!"

Frederick quickly explained, "She insisted on giving me the car, and I had no choice but to accept it. I'll pay her for it later."

"The car had just broken down when I went to save her, so if you don't believe me, I'll throw it away."

"Don't talk nonsense to my wife."

Fiona looked Frederick up and down. She felt that he didn't seem to be lying.

    Nigel, while wiping off sweat, explained, "It's because you can't be with me often, and I have needs too.""My interactions with her were just superficial; my true love will always be you.""Don't worry, as long as everything works out, I will definitely marry you."Kimberly, with a hint of frustration, said, "Isn't it because you told me to date Ivan Lawson, to help you trick him out of his family's assets?""Ivan is busy with the opening tomorrow; I made some time just to come and be with you.""I allowed another man to be with me for your sake, and you went and slept with someone else."Nigel put his arm around Kimberly and reassured her, saying, "Alright, don't be upset. I've got this plan all figured out.""Before long, you won't have to deal with that idiot anymore!"At that moment, Nigel suddenly changed the subject and said to Kimberly, "You still keep in touch with Ivy, right? Invite her to join us tomorrow as well.""After all, you're her best friend!"Upon hearing

    At this moment, Nigel stopped Kimberly and said, "Don't call her yet, wait until tomorrow when you're about to open.""Catch Ivy off guard so that I can thoroughly humiliate her."Kimberly naturally agreed with what Nigel said. After all, as long as Nigel gave her 200 thousand dollars, she was willing to do anything he asked.Afterwards, the two became entangled again. Three seconds later, Nigel was dripping with sweat, while Kimberly looked displeased...On the second day, Frederick slept in until 9:00 am before stretching and getting out of bed.Since it was Saturday and he didn't have to work, Frederick was able to sleep in.When he got up, Anya had already left because she was used to working on weekends as well. She felt that working from home affected her efficiency, so she chose to work at the office instead.Fiona was still in bed, and Frederick was curious because he thought Fiona was a university student, so why wasn't she going to school every day?Frederick hadn't g

    Jean then took a seat in the passenger seat and said, "Let's hit the road."Frederick gave Jean a puzzled look. Was Jean not planning to get out of the car?"Where are we headed?"Jean smiled gently and said, "Join me in picking out a gift for my dad."Frederick frowned slightly. Even though he considered Jean a friend, he really didn't want to get too close. After all, he had a family to think about."I don't know what your dad likes either.""I can't give you any advice; you'll have to make your own decision."Jean took out her phone and said, "I'm going to call Madam Serena and tell her you're being irresponsible again and want me to get an abortion..."Upon hearing Jean's words, Frederick felt overwhelmed and at a loss for how to handle Jean. He finally conceded, saying, "Alright, alright, I give up.""Just to make it clear, I'll only be accompanying you to pick out a gift for your dad. Once we're done, I'll be heading home."Jean finally hung up the phone with a satisfie

    Jean smiled slightly and said, "That's because when I bought the golden horse sculpture and the Ronan sculpture, I hired an antique appraiser to accompany me for the purchase.""He said at the time that the price Mr. Brown offered was a bit high.""But I decided to buy it anyway!"Frederick was taken aback when he heard what Jean said. Why would someone as smart as Jean buy something knowing it was expensive? What was she trying to do?Jean smiled slightly and said, "Think about it, Mr. Brown only had two of the pieces at the time. He didn't even want to acquire the third one, which shows that the price for the third piece was indeed a bit too high in that area.""There might be a bit of difficulty if you're thinking about making a purchase."Frederick nodded slightly in agreement. It was indeed the case; if there wasn't a special reason, Dominic would have bought the third piece for a normal price.The trio of the sculptures were very popular when sold together, and they also h

    Even though Jean was dressed like a rebellious teenager, the earrings she was wearing were diamond, which was something a typical rebellious teenager couldn't afford.She was someone who bought antiques with the company of a renowned appraiser from the industry. It was clear that she was a wealthy young lady with a passion for enjoyment.Looking at Frederick now, he was dressed in cheap clothes and didn't look wealthy at all. He was probably just a low-life that this rich girl met while out gallivanting."Ms. Hemsworth, did the previous appraiser not come?"Jean Hemsworth waved her hand and said, "No, he didn't come. He's out of town.""I've already bought two items from you, so I trust you."Dominic laughed heartily at the news, but secretly felt relieved. "Alright, bring up the special gift Ms. Hemsworth prepared for Mr. Hemsworth's birthday celebration."Dominic, who runned the antique shop, spoke in a very traditional manner, but always conveyed a sense of respect.Frederic

    Jean’s expression shifted slightly when she heard those words. She had an unwavering trust in Frederick. Therefore, she suspected that Dominic actually sold her a fake.Jean didn’t mind spending money, but giving her father a counterfeit item was simply out of the question.“I think you’re the one who should explain yourself, don’t you think?” she said firmly.Dominic was caught off guard by her unexpectedly strong stance. Just as he was about to say something, Frederick picked up the Veiled Lady sculpture and flipped it over to examine the base.“This base is definitely antique, but it’s from a Golden Age piece. There’s no way it could have been crafted with medieval techniques.”Upon hearing Frederick’s words, Dominic felt a chill. He had initially felt relieved that Jean hadn’t brought along that old appraiser, but now he realized that Frederick was far more discerning. Perhaps even more challenging than the old appraiser.Examining the bottom of porcelain pieces is a fundamental pr

    Dominic had been exposed and really should have refunded the money. Refusing to do so was crossing the line.Frederick was just about to reason with him when Jean stopped him, giving Dominic a cold smile. “So you’re really not giving me my money back?”Dominic pointed dismissively at a pile of trinkets strewn on the floor. “Pick one of those antiques, and we’ll call it even. Or don’t, and I won’t be so friendly next time.”Jean’s temper flared. “You think I’m an idiot? Anyone could see that pile is trash! Do you believe I won’t call someone to tear this place apart?”She wasn’t blind—anything valuable in Treasure Hall was locked in glass cases, while this pile was clearly just junk. Dominic was really trying to settle her two million dollars with garbage.Dominic, unfazed, sneered. “As if I’d let you threaten me. Go ahead, call whoever you want!”Jean, furious, grabbed her phone to call Jonah and have him bring people over to wreck the place. Just then, Frederick noticed the pile

    Frederick ignored Dominic and instead held the spearhead in his hand, noting its peculiar texture. It was neither copper nor iron, and he couldn’t precisely determine its age, though Dominic was correct that a spearhead alone, without the shaft, wasn’t particularly valuable.However, Frederick picked it up because the negative energy within him surged with an intense desire for it, even attempting to seize control of his body just to grab the spearhead.He decided to keep the spearhead to study it more closely. As soon as he held it, the energy's agitation instantly subsided.Testing its strength, he squeezed the spearhead. Normally, he could bend iron with ease, yet even using 70 percent of his strength, the spearhead remained unyielding, reinforcing his sense that it was extraordinary.Dominic clapped his hands, seeing the matter as finally settled."Thanks for stopping by," he said cheerfully.Frederick packed up his items, especially the painting, which he carefully rolled up

    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
