"You're dreaming! You think I'll work for your company for free? What nonsense are you spouting?"

Mandy couldn't contain their anger, and lunged at Frederick.

Frederick instantly grabbed her wrist, his expression icy. "From the start, you've been unreasonable. Why is it okay for you to extort us, but not for me to defend myself?"

"I don't care! If I don't see the money today, I won't do the livestream!" Mandy raised her chin arrogantly, feeling invincible.

"Do you think I don't know? You've already spent millions on advertising just for this livestream," she continued. "If I breach the contract, I'll only have to compensate for a few million. But what about you? The losses would be in the billions at least! So, who's the one at a disadvantage here? You decide."

With that, she casually found a seat and sat down. She crossed her legs and lounged as if she owned the place.

The others turned pale at her words. They hadn't expected Mandy to see through their weak spot. No wonder she

    "She insulted you and the company. If it were you, what would you do?" Frederick asked flatly.This question momentarily left Jennifer speechless. After a while, she said angrily, "Fine! She deserved to be punished! But tell me, what about the livestream? We have less than five minutes until it starts. Where are we going to find a replacement for her? Do you know how much effort the entire company has put into this debut livestream? Your rash actions will only ruin everyone's hard work!"However, Frederick chuckled nonchalantly. "It's just one anchorwoman, isn't it? Are you saying that without this woman, we can't find anyone else to go live?""You make it sound so simple. If it's so easy, then find someone else right now!" Jennifer said, exasperated."I think she'll be fine," Frederick said, pointing casually at a plain-looking, freckle-faced assistant standing beside Jennifer."What? Me? No way!" The assistant froze on the spot, shaking her head vigorously like a rattle.She

    "Hold on a second!"At the crucial moment, Frederick stopped Jennifer in her tracks. "Ms. York, give me ten minutes. Just ten minutes, and I promise I'll get the viewership back up."Jennifer had an icy look, and replied, "With these numbers? Even if I give you ten minutes, everyone in the livestream will probably leave!""If I can't do it, I'll resign immediately," Frederick declared with absolute confidence.Jennifer was stunned. Frederick was actually betting his career on this livestream! Was he really that confident he could turn things around?"Cole, you're the head of the media department. What do you think? Is there any chance we can recover from this situation?" Jennifer asked."Well... In my thirty years in the industry, I’ve never heard of such a turnaround," Cole Lawson said, shaking his head.Jennifer's face filled with disappointment. "It looks like fate wants Prospera Corporation to take a hit this time. I accept the loss!"So what if it was a billion-dollar loss

    [Even an idiot can see this is obviously fake! Skin doesn’t suddenly turn that white…][No way! It doesn’t look like there are any beauty filters! Her skin looks really natural!][Are you seriously saying it’s because of their product? Is this some kind of joke? Can that really happen?]But Holly's reaction was just too genuine! Her long-standing insecurity seemed to vanish, and she was on the verge of fainting from sheer excitement upon seeing her transformed skin.“Holly!” The livestream staff quickly rushed over to support her.[No way, they’re just putting on a show! There are too many fake livestreams nowadays!] one viewer immediately voiced their skepticism.[But this doesn’t look staged. I’m a nursing student, and people’s reactions to extreme emotions like this are hard to fake!][I agree, it seems real. Could this actually be happening?]This was quickly met with more doubt from others. Gradually, more viewers began to believe it.[Fine, I’ll buy a box and see for mys

Who doesn’t want to look fresh and clean to impress the ladies?]Holly’s transformation from a plain village girl to a radiant, elegant beauty was the best advertisement for the brand. It worked better than any endorsement from internet celebrities or stars.The livestream exploded, drawing a flood of curious viewers. The viewership soared to over a hundred thousand.“Ms. York, we’ve surpassed a hundred thousand orders!” came the astonishing news from the media department, leaving Jennifer flabbergasted.“One hundred thousand orders?! Are you serious?”It had been less than twenty minutes since the livestream started. With a net profit of five hundred per order, they had already raked in fifty million!“Ms. York, we only prepared for one hundred and fifty thousand orders in advance, and we’re almost out!”“Get mor

    “I suspect this is a malicious scheme from a competitor,” Jennifer said, sitting upright and looking serious. “I suggest we cancel the entire order of five hundred thousand units and refuse the five million in gifts.”This unexpected windfall was more of a curse than a blessing for the company. Not to mention, such a massive amount of tipping could place them under intense scrutiny. The logistics for delivering five hundred thousand units within three days alone were impossible. The company’s total inventory didn’t even reach two hundred thousand units. Even with round-the-clock production, they wouldn't be able to meet the delivery deadline.“But if we cancel all five hundred thousand orders now, our reputation could suffer. Also, we might face hefty penalties,” the PR team voiced their concerns.Jennifer frowned deeply. “There’s no other way. Between two evils, we choose the lesser. It’s better than going bankrupt, right?”Cutting their losses was the only viable solution.“Ms

    "Ms. Yarborough, our firewall has been breached!" The retainer fell to his knees, trembling with fear. “We've lost half of our funds in Mirage City!”“What? Half?!” Liana shot up as if electrified, shock etched on her face. “That loss amounts to billions! Who dares to target my family's money?”Her fury was palpable. “I’ll wipe out their entire family!”“We’re not certain, but it’s likely the work of a highly organized hacker army. Our firewall crumbled in less than three minutes, and...” the retainer trailed off.“Speak clearly, or I'll have your head!” Liana snapped, glaring down at him.“F-Forgive me!” he stammered, shaking his head vigorously. “After breaching our defenses, the attackers could have taken everything. But…they only seized half.”He took a deep breath, and continued, “There are two possibilities: first, they might fear the power of the Yarboroughs and choose to hold back. But this doesn’t quite add up—if they were really scared, they wouldn't have attacked us

    Liana froze, and her lips curled in disdain. "Christopher, who do you think you are? Do you think so highly of yourself? What makes you think you're worth my time? Besides, do I need your meddling to deal with Frederick? Or have you forgotten how I schooled you back in college?"Christopher felt his temples throb with anger, but forced himself to remain calm. "Liana, you'll regret it if you don't kill this kid. I'm telling you, he's like a wild tiger that no one can control. Trying to reign him in will only lead to your downfall!"I sent two top-notch fighters from the Aston Savant Arts Ranking to deal with him. Do you want to know what happened? They were wiped out without leaving a scratch on him!"He's barely twenty, yet he's already capable of taking down two Sovereign Grandmasters from the rankings. With his rebellious nature, you'll never be able to control him!"As for you, Liana… You may call yourself the Northern Frontier princess, but you're nothing more than—"Befor

    Snap!Jennifer slammed her pen onto the ground, her face contorted in anger."This shameless slacker! Is he still daydreaming?!" Her beautiful features twisted in a mix of embarrassment and rage. She couldn't stop herself from venting. "Me? Jealous? Ridiculous! I don't care if all the men in the world are gone! Even if I had to choose between a beggar or a fly, I wouldn't give that arrogant, shameless small-time employee a second glance!"Bah! Even cursing him makes me sick!"Her over-the-top reaction stunned her subordinates. Jennifer was always calm and composed, but she was actually angry now! And over a seemingly joking remark, at that? Was it really necessary to react this way?"Is there something going on between them? That's exciting! Ms. York is usually such an ice queen. I can't believe she’d have something going on with that sales department employee..."Whispers and murmurs spread like wildfire among the staff, as if they had uncovered a hidden secret."What's w

    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
