[Got it. Thanks for your hard work, Seiryu.]

Frederick replied to the message, feeling a huge weight lifted off his chest.

With this, the Campbell family's conspiracy against them had completely fallen apart. However, killing Tyrell might invite even more serious retaliation from the Lesters.

"It doesn't matter anymore. When trouble's brewing, everything will be exposed," Frederick muttered to himself. "Let's use this chance to flush out all the corrupt and malevolent people involved in this mess."

Half an hour later, Jennifer indeed appeared at the company again, wearing her usual professional outfit.

Frederick hurried over and asked in concern, "Ms. York, are you okay?"

Seeing his seemingly unaffected demeanor, Jennifer remembered how she had narrowly escaped Tyrell's assault and felt a surge of nameless anger.

"What do you think? I almost got into trouble!"

"Almost means nothing happened," Frederick replied with a small smile.

After all, he had sent Seiryu to escort

    Though Frederick had some good points, comparing him to the world's most perfect man was like comparing a drop of water to the ocean."Well, let's see what you can do with your product launch event. This will determine your worth in my eyes, and whether you can match up to Lord Hades." Jennifer replied to him with a queenly air, lifting her chin. [Alright.]For several days straight, Frederick worked overtime at the company preparing for the launch event. Finally, on the last day, all the preparations were done."Damn this overtime! I'm outta here! Going home to find my mom!" With a flourish, he clocked out and hopped onto his electric scooter, heading for the Gold Coast.At a crossroads, a silver-gray supercar suddenly zoomed in, crashing into an elderly lady in front of him. Her bicycle was flipped over, and the wheels flew off."Damn it! You nearly hit me! Does anyone have any decency these days?" Frederick snarled in anger. He drove up to the supercar, that had stopped,

    "What did you say? I have a fiancée in the Northern Frontier? How come I didn't know about this?" Frederick nearly dropped dead on the spot when he received Seiryu's call.Seiryu explained patiently, "My lord, I've also just learned this. Your former master, the previous Drakonia guardian, once arranged a marriage contract for you with the Yarborough family, a powerful clan in the Northern Frontier."Your fiancée is Liana, the Yarborough family's heiress. At just twenty-one years old, she's already a powerful figure in her own right.""Stop, enough!" Frederick felt embarrassed. "The thing is, I've never even met this woman! It's absurd to suddenly have a fiancée. How can I accept this? You need to go to the Northern Frontier yourself and cancel this marriage for me.""I wish I could, but she's already here in Mirage City..."This frustrated Frederick. "Damn it! Seiryu, listen to me. Block all information related to me! We absolutely cannot let this Liana come looking for me!"

    "Isn't the most important thing about a product launch the product itself? Why bother with all the fancy stuff?" Frederick said calmly.Eva had indeed suggested having celebrities endorse the products, and to spend lavishly to invite medical experts. She even suggested a red carpet and rose-lined pathway, but he vetoed them all.He preferred to use resources wisely and effectively, ensuring that the best and most valuable materials or efforts were allocated to the most critical and important parts or tasks. He wouldn't waste a cent on unnecessary extravagance.Jennifer was so frustrated, she felt like smashing her high heels on Frederick's head. "Are you an idiot? These formalities may be superficial, but they leave a good impression on the guests and judges present. When we broadcast the event city-wide, the whole of Mirage City will see what our launch looks like. Do you want hundreds of thousands of people to see a shabby event?"Frederick remained unfazed. "Doesn't matter, as

    Timothy had just sent the invitation out of curiosity, to see if she would actually show up. Who would have thought that Liana Yarborough, the pride of the Northern Frontier, would really appear in person?It was obvious that a tycoon in this third-tier small city was barely seen as significant in the eyes of the Northern Frontier elites.Excited, he stretched out a hand and said, "Ms. Yarborough, allow me to introduce myself. I am Timothy, the heir of the Campbell family, one of the Great Four Warrior Clans in Mirage City. I'm also the chairman of Campbell Pharmaceutical."But Liana seemed uninterested in Timothy. She simply walked away, saying, "Put away your dirty hands and arrange a good viewing spot for me."Her disregard of him was like a slap in the face, freezing his smile instantly. The Campbell family's servants also wore gloomy expressions.When they saw the bodyguards standing behind Liana, they were shocked to find that the lowest among them were Bathos Grandmasters

    The samples displayed looked almost identical! In fact, it seemed like the only difference was the name—Frosted Silk Powder had simply been rebranded!Jennifer's face turned as white as a sheet. The formula had been stolen!On stage, Timothy was confidently presenting the new product on the big screen."Our company's product, the Ivory Radiance, has multiple benefits such as whitening and rejuvenating the skin. Its key feature is that it can sculpt your body based on your individual proportions, achieving the legendary golden ratio figure!"As soon as he said this, the audience erupted into waves of astonished gasps."Oh my god! It's 100% harmless and provides permanent whitening!""And it can give you a golden ratio figure—it's way more effective than working out or dieting!"The guests, especially the women, were practically drooling with excitement. This was undoubtedly a new revolution in beauty products!The judges, who had already been bribed by Timothy, couldn't help b

    "Watch the show?" Frederick's cryptic comment left Jennifer and Jasmine puzzled. However, seeing his confident demeanor, they had no choice but to suppress their unease. They had already placed all their bets on him, and there was no other way out.Meanwhile, upstairs, Liana suddenly noticed Frederick below and was momentarily stunned."Isn't that the rude guy who yelled at me on the street the other day? What's he doing here?""My lady, if you don't like him, why not just kill him now?" her attendant suggested. "After all, anyone the Yarborough family wants dead in the entire Aston has no chance of survival!"After all, Liana held an intimidating title—the fiancée of Hades, the Dark Monarch."No need to rush. Killing him now would spoil the fun of watching the show," Liana replied, crossing her legs elegantly with a haughty smile. "Judging by the situation, it looks like he's up against that Timothy guy, right? Timothy has already garnered a lot of attention and support from th

    "Ahhhh!" The sudden gruesome scene caused quite a few people to nearly have a heart attack. The bloody, severed arm on the ground was a shocking sight. The Savant Grandmaster stood there, pale and trembling."Timothy, what are you doing?! With thousands of people here and tens of thousands watching the live stream, you resort to violence?" someone voiced their outrage.But Timothy just laughed instead of getting angry."Everyone, please calm down! This is part of today's presentation!""What do you mean?" The crowd was puzzled.Timothy quickly stepped forward and pulled an elegant box from his pouch, revealing a white powder. He picked up the severed arm and reattached it to the Savant Grandmaster's shoulder, sprinkling the powder all over the wound.In less than three seconds, something astonishing happened. The severed arm and the wound began to heal at a visible speed, leaving only a faint pink scar.The crowd erupted in shock."Am I seeing things? Did the arm really rea

    After a long silence, Frederick finally took the initiative and stood up. The employees of Prospera Corporation erupted in applause. Despite this, Jennifer and Jasmine’s expressions were a mix of hope and despair, and they struggled to hide how despondent they were.Timothy had come well-prepared with a terrifying trump card, and he had even bribed the judges. Did they still have any chance of winning?"Jen, maybe you should go back. I'm worried... Your reputation might take a hit after this," Jasmine sighed. She had already lost confidence—not because Frederick was incompetent, but because the odds were overwhelmingly against them. Timothy surely had powerful backers.However, Jennifer's face was flushed red as she bit her lip. "Why should we hide? I'm the CEO of Prospera Corporation! We can't run away forever. What's meant to come will come!"She lifted her head defiantly. If she was going to fall, she'd fall spectacularly.As Frederick calmly stepped onto the stage, the cro

    Heston was still scoffing when he received a call from Giovanni.He was taken aback, and he nervously glanced at Frederick.

They now aimed to dismantle the entire Radicals faction. Though the Radicals had already compromised in the Woody affair, they were taken aback by the Conservatives' greed and refused to back down any further.A fierce conflict broke out between the two sides, quickly escalating into open warfare. The entire Imperial Capital was placed under lockdown, with martial law in effect. Gunfire and smoke filled the air as both sides clashed, and the violence soon spread across Drakonia. Armies from all regions were mobilized, and a war was about to erupt. At this critical moment, the First Elder woke up.Years ago, after deposing the Dark Monarch of

    Senspiras, located in the southeast of Drakonia, was also a neighboring country of Drakonia. It also has the largest population of overseas Drakonians. Many of the wealthy families in Senspiras migrated from Drakonia within the past century or two. The current richest man in Senspiras was one such example."Is Mr. Stone your father?" Frederick raised an eyebrow and asked."Looks like you've got some sense! Name your price!" Heston smirked, and pulled out a checkbook.Frederick's expression darkened."Your dad's assets are not even enough to wipe my shoes. Who do you think you are, pretending to be a big shot? Get lost!"Frederick quickly realized that Heston was just a spoiled brat who would throw money around bullying people. Since he wasn't much of a real threat, Frederick wasn't bothered by dealing with him. Upon hearing Frederick's words, Heston was stunned. "Are you out of your mind? My dad is the richest man in Senspiras! How dare you belittle him?" “So what? Your enti

    Sylvia had so many questions. She wanted to know what Frederick had been doing to provoke such dangerous enemies. She wanted to know if Frederick had really killed a hundred people. She wanted to understand how her son had gained such abilities. And most of all, she wondered if Frederick had been living this kind of disturbing life all these years."Mom, we'll talk about it when we get home," Frederick said, gently lifting Sylvia and leaving the company.On the way, Frederick lightly tapped on Sylvia's head, and she quickly fell unconscious. He had used a special method to erase part of her memory.When they arrived home, Sylvia slowly woke up."Fred! Why are you suddenly home?" Sylvia exclaimed in surprise when she saw Frederick."I'm about to go on a long trip, so I came to visit. Why are you sleeping on the couch instead of in your room?" Frederick smiled.Sylvia sat up from the couch, feeling a bit stiff and sore."I was talking to your sister on the phone. How did I

    "Yes, it was me. If no one managed to escape, the entire Steinfields family—except for children under sixteen and elders over seventy—should be dead by now," Frederick said with a smirk.If he didn't deter the Steinfields with a show of force, others might try the same methods against him in the future.Hearing this, Kaizer's face went blank and terror filled his eyes. At that moment, Frederick's phone rang. It was Melanie calling. Frederick answered, and put the call on speaker. "How did it go? Tell me, so Kaizer here can hear," Frederick said."There were a hundred and seventy-three Steinfields. Fifty-two were children and elders. The remaining hundred have all been executed!" Melanie reported. Kaizer spat out a mouthful of blood in shock. "No way! We're the Steinfields! The Steinfields of Imperial Capital! How could this happen?"In a panic, Kaizer fumbled with his phone, trying to call his family. However, every call he made went unanswered."You'll find out for sure onc

    "Let her go!"A sharp voice rang out.Kaizer instinctively turned around, and he was stunned by Nella's beauty. He couldn't believe someone like her existed."Nella, why did you come down?" Jasmine called out, her eyes widened in panic. She had specifically told them not to come down.Nella trembled in fear. "Ms. Smith, we were worried about you!"Though she was terrified, she still stepped forward. She couldn't just stand by and watch Jasmine get assaulted."Well, well, Frederick sure is lucky with women. But now, they're all mine. Who would've thought that I'd be blessed with a feast before leaving Drakonia!" Kaizer was practically drooling.He let go of Jasmine, and rushed toward Nella eagerly. Nella backed away step by step, but soon found herself cornered."Haha, come to me!" Kaizer spread his arms wide, lunging toward Nella.Just as he was about to grab her, a thunderous crash shook the room. The outer wall of the building crumbled down.Frederick had burst through it a

    Meanwhile, Frederick had just gotten off the plane. As soon as he turned on his phone, he saw a long list of missed calls from Selene.He immediately felt uneasy. Selene would never call him so many times unless something urgent had happened.He was about to call her back when his phone rang again.Frederick answered Selene's call quickly, but before he could ask anything, Selene's tearful voice came through."Fred, Mom's been kidnapped!"Frederick's face darkened instantly, and his killing aura surged."Alright. Don't worry, Mom will be fine."With that, Frederick hung up the phone; he then immediately called Melanie, who was still in the Imperial Capital, lazily lounging in bed."Do you have any intelligence on the Steinfields in the Imperial Capital?" Frederick asked through gritted teeth.He didn't need much thought to figure out who was behind this. There was hardly anyone left in Mirage City bold enough to cross him, except for Kaizer. And now, Sylvia had been kidnapped

    When the elevator doors opened, Jasmine stepped out into the lobby.Kaizer's eyes lit up as he eyed her from head to toe. Though he had seen pictures of her before, she was more of an eye candy in person. Kaizer, holding his rifle, approached her. "Ms. Smith, you certainly kept me waiting!""What do you want with me?" Jasmine asked coldly. She knew that showing fear or vulnerability would only embolden these lawless men."Ms. Smith, why don't you take a guess?" Kaizer reached for Jasmine and lifted her chin with the barrel of his gun, forcing her to look at him.Jasmine met his gaze without a hint of fear."Is it money you want? The company has ten million in cash reserves. You can take it, and I guarantee I won't call the police. We can pretend nothing ever happened as long as no one is hurt. As for the funds in the company’s accounts, you wouldn’t be able to take it even if I transfer the money to you with today’s financial systems," Jasmine spoke calmly."Ms. Smith, you're q

    Bang!With a loud crash, the door was violently kicked open. Kaizer and his men stormed into Frederick’s place.Sylvia was startled, and she shouted, "What do you guys want?" "We're here to kidnap you!" Kaizer strode toward Sylvia. Then, he snatched away her phone and crushed it."Tie her up and take her away!" Kaizer and his men acted quickly. Selene, on the other end of the video call, was shocked by the strangers. Fortunately, she was still on alert. She quickly tried to call Frederick while shaking with fear. However, Frederick’s phone was off since he was on a flight."How’s everything going on your end?" Kaizer asked his men over the phone."We’ve rigged all four walls of Aerowind Enterprise with high-powered explosives. Once we detonate them, the whole building will turn to ashes," his subordinate reported.A smile finally appeared on Kaizer’s face. "Good, I’m heading over now." Soon, Kaizer arrived at Aerowind Enterprise with a backpack."I want to see Ms. Sm

    Upon hearing Frederick’s words, Woody stumbled. "Take him away!" one of the senior officials from the Supervision Department ordered.The respected elder of the Drakonia Royal Court, Woody, was escorted away along with the evidence and witnesses."After today, the Lamberts will cease to exist, and you're finally free." Frederick sighed in relief, and smiled at Easton.Easton looked slightly lost. He wasn’t sure what to do next with his sudden freedom. "What's wrong? Struggling to find a new purpose in life?" Frederick teased.Easton nodded, and replied, "Yeah, my ambitions have been completely worn down these three years. I feel a bit aimless.""Should I find you a job?" Frederick suggested casually."It’s best if I could work for you, Mr. Lester!" Easton’s eyes lit up with excitement."I have a pharmaceutical company under me. If you're interested, you could take the position of Chief of Biomedical Engineering," Frederick said jokingly. To his surprise, Easton was genuinely
