Feeling helpless, Frederick stood alone at her doorstep and shouted, "Ms. York, I know you're in there! Can you please come out and talk to me?

"Why do you want a divorce? Please explain! If it's because of me, I'll apologize and make things right! If you dislike me, just come out and tell me directly! You call me to say you want a divorce without giving any reasons! How can I accept it willingly?

"Even murderers are given a reason for their crime! You can't leave me in the dark like this!"

Frederick continued to question, but Jennifer seemed deaf to his pleas. She ignored him completely, without even stepping out to respond. Despite his impassioned words outside, she remained shut indoors.

Deciding to ignore everything else, Frederick stood there and declared, "Don't worry, I won't barge into your home! I'll wait here until you come out and give me an answer! I won't leave this place until I hear from you!"

Watching from behind the balcony curtains, Jennifer sighed softly. "How

    "Frederick? Why are you still here?" Jennifer stood rooted to the spot, dumbfounded. Her brain was blank as she looked at Frederick in disbelief.Did he spend the entire night out in that torrential rainstorm?!Oh, god!"I told you that as long as you didn't come out to explain to me, I’d stay out here!" Frederick said; he remained unmoved, his gaze still firm and resolute, nary a hint of hesitation.In an instant, tears welled up in Jennifer's eyes. Her defenses completely shattered at his words. She threw herself into Frederick's arms and pounded his chest desperately, her voice trembling with sobs."Why are you so stupid?! It's not worth risking your life for me!""It's worth it!" Frederick said each word firmly. "Jennifer, you're my everything! There might be millions of women in the world, but I only want you!"Jennifer couldn't hold back anymore. Tears streamed down her face as she cried, "Am I really worth it?"At that moment, she wasn't the cold and aloof CEO of a lis

    As soon as Frederick finished speaking, he vanished without a trace. Jennifer was left standing there, lost and disoriented, her delicate fingers dangling awkwardly in the air. Her emotions were a whirlwind, and she didn't know what to say. Maybe, just maybe… There was a glimmer of hope?-For Frederick, dealing with Jennifer's situation would have to wait until the day after tomorrow. Today, there was something else that demanded his immediate attention. It was time to settle the score with the Lesters!Frederick had kept his plans a secret from everyone, even his mother Sylvia. This was his personal vendetta.At three in the afternoon, the Lester residence was bustling with people. Today was the naming ceremony of Barrett's granddaughter.Two months ago, Jocelyn married into a wealthy family from another region. Although her husband's family wasn't skilled in fighting, they were financial tycoons with significant political connections, which promised great benefits for t

    When Frederick displayed Cyrus's portrait, no one was more infuriated than Atticus."Frederick, what do you think you're doing? Put that picture away right now!" Atticus roared. "Today is a joyous occasion! How could you bring such an ominous thing here?! Are you deliberately trying to disgust us?!"Barrett was livid. He practically exploded as he screamed, "Guards! Get that cursed portrait out of here!"Bringing out the portrait of a dead person in a celebration like this was a severe omen for the family. The Lesters were very superstitious, so they feared something like this happening the most."You dare?" Frederick's icy gaze froze the approaching guards in their tracks. They felt as if they were hit by a chill straight from the Antarctic, and were paralyzed with fear.Barrett stomped his foot in frustration. "Useless fools! What do we even pay you for?""Barrett, calm down! This isn't how the future head of the Lester family should act!" Atticus's stern shout made Barrett fal

    Barrett screamed as his finger was suddenly mangled, his entire body convulsing with pain. In a frenzy, he lunged at Frederick. "You bastard! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!!"Frederick didn't even look up. His leg lashed out swiftly, shattering Barrett's kneecap on impact. Barrett collapsed, his legs broken beneath him, wailing in agony. His fury turned into nothing but desperate, hysterical screams.The Lesters were all stunned. Barrett was the second son of the Lester family. Despite his mediocre talent, he had reached the pinnacle of the Bathos Grandmaster level at over fifty years old. It was thanks to Atticus's rigorous training and the family's vast resources that he had achieved such a feat. He was nearly on par with Atticus, a Sovereign Grandmaster.And yet, Frederick had taken him down with a single kick. Was he even human?!Atticus was equally dumbfounded. He had expected Frederick's strength to be exceptional, but only reaching the peak of an Aflon Grandmaster at mo

    Jacob and William usually kept a low profile. But this was a grand setting, and Frederick had openly challenged the honor of the Lester family. So, they had to exert the aura of true power to suppress Frederick.Yet Frederick remained unfazed. "So, you two are here to stop me?""No need for words!" Jacob snorted coldly. "If you think you can hang that traitor's portrait in our main hall, dream on! Does he deserve such recognition?"William said boldly, "That kind of scoundrel should be crushed to dust! His ashes should be buried under our family's floor, trodden upon daily by our descendants!""Frederick! Your father won't be the only one who I've taken down! You're next!" William continued arrogantly.Before they could finish their boastful words, a terrifying pressure suddenly swept over them. Startled, they looked up, desperately pushing out their inner aura in resistance. Yet, like a soft wind pushing against a hurricane, their efforts proved futile against this overwhelming f

    "You're just a brat. I may be old, but I can crush you with one hand!" Atticus's eyes blazed with fury as he raised his massive hand, unleashing a tremendous pressure that collapsed the ground beneath Frederick.The younger members of the Lester family hurriedly retreated, fearing the fallout from the immense force.People murmured in awe and fear. It felt like the weight of at least a small hill! It was no wonder Atticus was a Sovereign Grandmaster! He was capable of such overwhelming power!Yet Frederick remained unfazed, letting the crushing pressure descend around him. He casually stretched his muscles and yawned."Grandfather, like I said, you're really old," he said nonchalantly. "You might as well go back and lie down. Don't waste your time here."Atticus was dumbfounded. He had put everything into that strike, unleashing one hundred percent of his Sovereign Grandmaster's inner aura. This move should have made Frederick kneel and submit. But now..."This is impossibl

    "It seems your mouth is the only thing still working," Frederick said with a chuckle.He ignored the stunned expressions of the Lesters around him. To him, these so-called "relatives" were nothing more than enemies in disguise.Frederick turned his back on the furious Atticus and the dumbfounded family members. He walked alone to the main hall, carrying Cyrus's portrait. He hung it prominently in the center of the hall, then knelt and solemnly offered his respects.As he looked up at his father's image, he murmured, "Dad, we’re home. This time, we're not sneaking in. We walked in openly!"At that moment, Atticus barely managed to regain his composure. He stumbled over in a rage. "You brat! I won’t allow you to hang that traitor’s portrait in my home! It brings shame to our ancestors!"The other Lesters were equally enraged, and followed suit. "Yeah! Even if you beat us all, do you think we’ll just accept this? We’ll never allow Cyrus to return to this home!"Frederick turned,

    [How exactly are we going to get someone else to do the dirty work?]Barrett smirked. [The best way? Get the old man to do it himself!][But wouldn’t he be reluctant? I mean, Cyrus is his favorite son, after all!][You don’t get it. Our father cares more about his reputation than anything else!] Barrett’s voice dripped with malice as he continued, [All we need is a story outrageous enough to make his blood boil, and he’ll handle the rest.]Before it even finished, Atticus’s fury exploded. He lunged at Barrett, and delivered a brutal kick.“You ungrateful son!”Barrett’s face turned ashen, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He gasped, “Dad, it’s not true! It’s a lie! That brat faked the recording to deceive you!”“Do you think I can’t tell if it’s real or not?” Atticus roared, his anger uncontrollable. “I may be old, but I’m not senile! You two scoundrels conspired to deceive me!”Cyrus had never cursed Atticus. The story was a fabrication, a lie that had poisoned Atticus agai

    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
