My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 28
Frederick couldn't help but laugh bitterly. Had that woman forgotten the pain once her wounds were healed, or was she naturally so domineering and aloof?He hurriedly rushed back to Jennifer's villa. Upon entering, he found her dressed in professional attire, sitting on the sofa with her straight legs crossed. She cast a cold glance at him."Where did you go?" Jennifer inquired."I was helping my mom move," Frederick replied.Hearing this, Jennifer instantly felt a surge of anger. How great of him! While she was trapped in the hotel, he didn't bother to ask or check on her. Instead, he went and helped his mother move houses! Truly, a man like him was unreliable!Observing Jennifer's ever-changing expressions, Frederick asked, "Ms. York, your injuries should be healed by now, right? Do you feel any discomfort?""How do you know I was injured?" Jennifer raised an eyebrow and sneered. "Now you're playing the sympathetic card? Frederick, you really don't seem like a man a

Strictly speaking, she was rubbing her lower abdomen, which was just slightly above her thighs.When Jennifer saw Frederic, panic immediately flashed in her eyes. "Who let you in? Get out! If you don't, I... I won't let you off!" She gasped, still maintaining a vigilant gaze on Frederick, afraid of a repeat of what happened in the office.Frederick carefully observed her facial expressions and said, "I'm not going to hurt you, Ms. York. You seem to be in discomfort. Would it be okay for me to take a look?"Jennifer remained silent at his words."I see a lot of cold sweat on your forehead. That shows that your current physical condition is not the best. If this goes on, calling an ambulance would also be pointless."Jennifer gritted her teeth. "Fine! Just look, no touching!"With her permission, Frederick approached her. Observing Jennifer's pale face and curled-up figure, he had a good idea of what was happening. It seemed that the old injury left by Hugh in her abdomen had a

"Why?" Jennifer and Frederick were both somewhat surprised."Because according to our work principles, we encourage couples to reconcile rather than to divorce. Besides, you two have just married, and your strong connection is like that of a model couple," the attendant chuckled meaningfully. "You must be very affectionate usually, right? How could we bear to break up such a perfect match?"Both of them fell silent. Affectionate? Perfect match? They had only known each other for a few days!Jennifer raised an eyebrow. "What nonsense rules are these? Then, when can we get a divorce?"The attendant replied, "At least another month!"As they walked out of the clerk's office, Jennifer suddenly said, "Since that's the case, let's postpone this divorce for now. You don't need to move out yet. Let's wait until I'm completely recovered, then we'll revisit this issue and about you resigning."Frederick nodded. "Sure."Hearing this, Jennifer couldn't help feeling a surge of frustr

"What am I going to find if I head up there?" Frederick asked curiously."Just come along and see for yourself," Jasmine said with a wink. "It's a request from Ms. York, so you can't really say no!" she added with a smirk.Frederick raised an eyebrow. They'd just had a disagreement, and now Jennifer was sending her assistant to fetch him. It seemed strange.Despite this, he didn't dwell on it for long. After all, Jasmine had helped him out before. He hopped into the car.To his surprise, Jasmine drove straight to a bar."Did Ms. York tell you to bring me here?" Frederick asked, surprised.Jasmine laughed. "You'll understand soon enough."Despite his reluctance, Frederick followed her inside, where they found seats. Jasmine tossed her hair back. "Actually, there was no instruction from Ms. York,” she revealed abruptly. “It was my idea to bring you here."Frederick was puzzled. "Ms. Smith, I'm not sure I follow...""Don't call me Ms. Smith; we're not at the office. Just call m

Sebastian's temper flared instantly. "So you think you're something, huh?” he jeered cuttingly. “What company are you with, and what's your monthly paycheck?""I'm a salesman at Prospera Corporation, recently made permanent, earning four thousand dollars a month," Frederick replied evenly.Sebastian's friends' faces shifted dramatically at this revelation."Four grand?"Had they heard correctly? In their social circle, where the average net worth soared above a hundred million, someone making a mere 4,000 dollars a month had slipped into their midst.Mockery rippled through the group."Seriously? Four grand? That's barely a fraction of what I spend on a single outfit!" scoffed one."I drop eight grand just on my dog's food! How do you even survive on that?" chimed in another.Frederick was an oddity among these rich kids.Sebastian sneered. "Well, since you're Jasmine's friend, I'll let you stay. Consider yourself lucky! Without us, you'd never get invited to such fancy gather
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 33
The room fell silent as Frederick effortlessly spoke Faelorian—a silence so profound, you could hear a pin drop. Every face displayed disbelief as they exchanged glances.Seriously? This guy, who makes a mere four grand, could speak fluent Faelorian?Even the pastry chef stood frozen.Sebastian couldn't resist a jab. "Maybe consider dropping the act if you can't speak Faelorian? The pastry chef can't understand you. No need to fake it!"Then, the Faplean chef surprised everyone, giving Frederick a thumbs-up. He praised him with a poor Aetherian accent, "Sir, if not for your appearance, I'd swear you were one of us. Your Faelorian is spot-on, like a native!"The crowd was stunned into silence.Sebastian's expression shifted dramatically.Once the chef left, Jasmine couldn't contain her amusement. She teased, "Frederick, you always seemed adorkable! Who knew you spoke Faelorian so well?"Frederick shrugged and said, "It's nothing, just something I picked up."His years in th

Jasmine trembled in terror, her face drained of color as she begged, "Please, don't touch me! I'll give you money—lots of it!""Money's good, but I'm taking you too." The burly man sneered sinisterly.Despair gripped Jasmine. She recognized him as a lawless wanderer who feared nothing. They roamed from town to town and had no place to call home.Out of nowhere, a slender finger gripped the brute's arm tightly.Frederick asked calmly, "Hey, I just have a question. That tattoo on your chest—where'd you get it?"The brute paused, eyeing the "V" tattoo on his chest. Then he spat at Frederick and growled, "Beat it! Don't ruin my fun!"In a flash, Frederick sent the brute crashing headfirst into a wall, blood spurting everywhere. It was a horrific sight.Jasmine stood dazed, eyes wide with disbelief, and looked at Frederick.Frederick withdrew his smoking finger, his expression stern as he said, "I tried to keep my temper in check, but some people are just rude and deserve a lesson i

Jennifer faced her family's relentless criticism with a blank expression. These people were kicking her when she was down."Is that all? As the Executive Vice President, overseeing nine major departments, I'll take full responsibility for this incident," she declared calmly.Zeke exploded in rage and roared, "Responsible? Can you really handle the responsibility? The losses are huge!" Xavier gestured with his hand and stated firmly, "The board can only give you two weeks to handle this. If the situation isn't resolved by then, Jennifer, you'll have to resign.""Very well." Jennifer left the boardroom with an icy demeanor.It wasn't until she was far from the boardroom that her hands began to shake uncontrollably.She hadn't anticipated the fierce reaction from the Tiger Faction due to Hugh's disability, which had driven them to go all out to suppress Prospera Corporation.The board had always coveted the shares her mother left her. If she couldn't resolve the crisis, she stoo

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
