My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 225
A pretty woman with long hair, dressed in a uniform, suddenly barged in."I know this loser! He doesn't even have a college degree! He's just a small employee at Prospera Corporation, and he barely makes a few thousand a month! You think he can cough up forty million in one go? If that's real, I'll eat my shoe right now!""Marissa? Why are you here?" Frederick exclaimed, surprised.He knew that face all too well. It was his former blind date, a materialistic woman who was always on the hunt for a rich man—Marissa Campbell!Marissa and her family had been lying low since Charlie was killed, so it was rare to see them around.Little did Frederick expect to find her working in this bridal shop!"What? You think by cozying up to Gavin, you're untouchable? That you can kick my family out of Mirage City?" Marissa retorted, her hands on her hips. "Let me tell you! You're dreaming! No matter how powerful Gavin is, he's just an underground emperor! He can't meddle in matters outside of th

The saleswoman was so frightened by his gaze that she stammered, "O-Okay... I'll swipe it! I'll do it!" She trembled as she placed the black gold card on the card reader, about to check the balance, when an unfriendly voice drawled out."Who's the dirty scoundrel causing a ruckus at our place?" A well-dressed couple swaggered in, and their presence immediately overshadowed everyone else.Seeing them, the saleswoman bowed respectfully, "Boss!"The two were none other than Malcolm and Stella, the bosses of Century Destiny. They had started from scratch and built the largest bridal company in the area, and earned tens of millions every year.Upon seeing them, Marissa practically danced with joy. "Mr. Orton, Ms. Hudson! You're finally here! There's a scammer here boasting about spending forty million on our wedding dress, but he can't even produce a normal bank card!"When Malcolm heard this, he exploded with anger. "I've seen people dining and dashing before, but trying to get a

"Huh? Esteemed guest?"Not just Marissa, but everyone else in the store was startled. How did Frederick go from being a scammer in their eyes one moment to an "esteemed guest" the next? This reversal seemed a bit too absurd!"Ms. Hudson, Mr. Orton, are you mistaking him for someone else? Esteemed guest? This guy is a fraud! You both saw it with your own eyes!" Marissa cradled her injured face, unable to believe what was happening."Hah, idiot woman! Do you think this is just some ordinary card?" Malcolm's face darkened. "That's the Global Elite Black Card! Its circulation is limited, and there are no more than five holders in the entire Aston. And you actually think it's a scam?!""The Global Elite Black Card itself comes with a base limit of fifty billion, and unlimited overdraft facilities. Having it is like having a gold mine!" Stella added. Her attitude made a complete 180-degree turn as she sneered, "You moron! Did you really think the holder of this card couldn't come up wi

"It's not! Agreeing to take them would be an honor to us, Ms. York, Mr. Lester! We're thrilled!" Malcolm and Stella said with beaming faces.Because that stupid Marissa had offended Frederick just now, if a few wedding dresses could make amends, it would be the most cost-effective deal.Frederick chuckled. "Ms. York, since they're insisting, I think you shouldn't refuse."With things reaching this point, Jennifer could only nod in agreement.They were ushered into the best dressing room. Besides Jennifer's wedding dress, Frederick also changed into a white suit.Wearing it, he looked refined and dignified. He exuded the air of a noble gentleman.Even Jennifer couldn't help but marvel. "I didn't expect that changing your clothes would make you so much more pleasing to the eye."Frederick had a good foundation, he just didn't like dressing up. Now, clad in this expensive suit, he was no less impressive than Jennifer.Frederick smirked. "Ms. York, are you confessing to me?"Jenn

Jade should have been able to solve her company's problem with the card Frederick had given her. So, why would she still need to contact him in such an urgent manner? It was puzzling. "I'm not sure. But she came looking for us, hoping to get in touch with you. Unfortunately, we didn't have your phone number," Stella said. "I only remembered it because I saw you today."Frederick said in a low voice, "Here's what I'll do. I'll leave my phone number with you, and you can pass it on to Jade. If there's anything, she can give me a call." "Okay!" Malcolm and Stella nodded eagerly.Soon, they were back home. What puzzled Frederick was that Jennifer remained silent the whole way. She had ignored even his teasing. Her expression was cold, and it remained unchanged all the way.Was she angry? Was it because he got a little too daring during the wedding photoshoot? Did she need to react this way? The ice queen's temper seemed to be getting worse! "Frederick, you're finally back!"
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 230
"Argh! Frederick, stop messing around! I said no!" Jasmine was so scared that her face turned pale. She kept shaking her head, and she trembled violently.Frederick chuckled, and let go of her. "That's more like it. That's the Ms. Smith I know."Jasmine pouted angrily. "You violent maniac! You're always resorting to force at the drop of a hat. I'm worried about you!"Frederick chuckled. "Don't worry—I'm prepared, even if I have to fight your brother.""There you go again. Seriously! I won't care about you anymore," Jasmine said in exasperation, rubbing her temples. Then, she bloomed into an unexpected smile. "By the way, are you free now?""What's up?""There's a big calligraphy exhibition in the southern side of the city today, and I heard many masterpieces by contemporary artists will be displayed. I want to see it, and… I need a bodyguard to protect me."Jasmine winked mischievously.In her spare time, she also liked to practice calligraphy to refine herself. Over time, sh
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 231
Frederick never expected that in just a few years, Lev would rise to become a renowned master. Back then, Frederick even criticized his calligraphy. It was too rigid and lacked depth. It seemed like Lev had overcome that flaw!Frederick's chuckle immediately irked some of the guests around him, who gave him disapproving glares in unison."What's so funny? This is a serious matter, but you dare to laugh out loud! Have you no respect for the masters?" Jasmine anxiously covered Frederick's mouth, bowing apologetically as she stood up to soothe the guests' anger.After calming everyone down, she turned to Frederick with a glare. "Didn't I tell you? This is a serious occasion. Even if you don't care about calligraphy, don't act so recklessly!"Frederick shrugged helplessly. "I'm innocent. I don't look down on calligraphy, I just find this person amusing for some reason.""Lev is a contemporary calligraphy master, and you dare to laugh at him? Clearly, you're clueless!" Jasmine roll

Jasmine was stunned. "What? Fake? Are you kidding me? How could something auctioned for fifty million be fake?""It's really fake," Frederick said with a slight squint, offering no further explanation.What a joke!How could Frederick not tell if something he wrote was real or fake? Two years ago, he had indeed created a masterpiece like the one on auction now. However, shortly after it was unveiled, it was burned to ashes in a fire. The one before them now should be a copy by some amateur calligrapher, with a hint of their own style. But compared to the authentic piece, it was like comparing clouds to mud!Seeing Frederick's silence, Jasmine frowned in dissatisfaction. "Is that all? So you're just guessing, right? You're saying it's a fake just because you think so? That's absurd!"She glared at Frederick, visibly annoyed. "If you don't understand the elegance of calligraphy, keep quiet and don't ruin my mood."Frederick sensed her anger, and said casually, "Well, you can cons

Heston was still scoffing when he received a call from Giovanni.He was taken aback, and he nervously glanced at Frederick. 'No way…'The moment he picked up the phone, he got a torrent of scolding.Meanwhile, a bloody power struggle was underway in the Imperial Capital.After the Conservatives took down Woody, their ambition surged. 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
