My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 391
Upon hearing the news, Frederick was stunned. Their company had only been established for a few days—how could there be unpaid wages? Did these protesting migrant workers mistake them for someone else?"Are you sure these people are there for us?" Frederick asked again."Absolutely sure! They said our names and positions very clearly. They're here specifically for us!" Jasmine said urgently. "Hurry up and come over! I'm going to lose control of the situation soon!"Frederick had no choice but to rush out to the company. When he arrived, there really was a group of rural laborers holding banners and demanding their wages. Various shouts echoed around the area."Heartless bosses are withholding hard-earned money from rural laborers!""Their actions caused laborers to be unable to return home, and they have to sleep under bridges!""The bosses are splurging money earned from workers' sweat on clubs, luxury cars, and yachts!"There were many reporters with cameras in their hands,

Jasmine hurried forward to Frederick."Frederick, I suspect there's more to this than meets the eye. Someone must have orchestrated this from behind the scenes. If you rashly take on this mess now, they could use it against us later! It's all risk and no gain for us!" she whispered.The head of security also stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Mr. Lester, there's no need to fear these poor folks. We have over twenty security guards with us, armed and ready. Handling them will be a piece of cake!"Frederick replied firmly, "Enough said. I will make sure they get paid their wages. Because... My dad was also a laborer."As he said this, he felt a complicated mix of emotions.Cyrus used to work tirelessly day and night for the sake of their family. Sometimes, he could only come home once a weeklThese people earned their living with their own hands. They worked hard to support their families, but were still manipulated by heartless bosses. Sometimes, their complaints went unhear

Frederick headed straight to Fascine Villa without hesitation. He knocked firmly on the grand doors of the estate."It's me, Frederick Lester. Ms. York called me here to discuss something with you. It's extremely urgent!" he declared.Soon, Frederick was ushered into Fascine Villa's main hall. Xavier was dressed in traditional attire, and he looked to be in high spirits when he emerged."Did Jennifer send you here to surrender?" Xavier chuckled confidently. "Without the funds from our family, your company has reached its limits, right?"Xavier grinned broadly. "If you want our family to come back into play, your presence alone won't cut it. Jennifer herself must come here. She must serve me tea, admit her faults, and promise to step down from the CEO position. She must also relinquish control of the board. If she doesn't do all of that, you can forget about it!"Frederick frowned in irritation. "You old geezer, have you been daydreaming too much?"Did this old man really think

Having said that, Frederick revealed a chilling smile after saying that.Zeke was immediately seized with spasms of fear. "Dad! He's insane! He's a freaking lunatic!""Shut up!" Xavier glared fiercely at Zeke. "All this trouble is because of your incompetence!"Then, he demanded, "Frederick, do you have evidence that he owes over one million in construction fees?" Frederick calmly produced the promissory note. "His signature and stamp are unmistakable, aren't they? The Golden Meadow project was registered under the company, and he was in charge at the time."Frederick sneered. "I've already had someone from the finance department look into this. Back then, every cent of that project was handed over to him. So, the truth is clear! He pocketed that 1.22 million!" he concluded.Zeke shrieked angrily, "Prospera Corporation belongs to our family! So what if I took some money? That's perfectly reasonable! What's it to you? You're just looking for an excuse to pick a fight with us!

"Ms. York? Why are you here?" Frederick exclaimed in surprise.The tremors ceased abruptly.Frederick saw Zacharias accompanying Jennifer, and everything became clear. Xavier was indeed a cunning fox. He had secretly contacted Jennifer as soon as Frederick arrived, which explained her swift arrival.The Yorks had initially been nervous and fearful. When they saw Jennifer, their attitude suddenly took a drastic turn."Haha! Finally, someone who can control this guy has arrived!""In the end, she's still part of our family. She won't tolerate her subordinate ruining us!"Xavier also became more confident at the change of situation. "Jen, look! This is the subordinate you’ve carefully nurtured! He wants us to apologize publicly and threatened to destroy our home! What's the meaning of this?" he lashed out angrily. When Jennifer heard this, her expression alternated between turning pale and flushing red. "Grandfather, this is a misunderstanding. I received feedback today that
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 396
As soon as Frederick said those words, the entire room fell into pin-drop silence. The Yorks looked at each other in disbelief. Did Frederick really just ignore Jennifer's words?Xavier was furious, and he trembled in anger. "This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!"Zeke's expression turned ugly, and he roared, "What else do you want? I’ve already apologized to you! Do you have to rub it in?"Frederick retorted sarcastically, "You're right! I do intend to rub it in. How you interpret that is up to you! In any case, the Yorks must issue a public apology. Zeke, you must publicly apologize to the laborers!""Frederick!" Jennifer's face immediately darkened.Normally, Frederick would back down when things got heated. However, he was completely different today.But Frederick retorted, "Ms. York, there's no need to persuade me. Though you didn't have the best childhood, you were still privileged to study abroad in developed countries. You don't understand the hardships of common p

Zeke and Zacharias slapped their heads in sudden realization. "Yeah, that's right! No matter what, we're Jennifer's family! If he kills us, it's pure evil, heinous karma! He might as well be damned!""If that happens, staying married to Jennifer would be a fool's dream! It goes against all ethics, and the heavens would condemn him!""He loves Jennifer so much. He definitely wouldn't dare touch us!"When Frederick heard this, his expression did indeed change.Xavier seized the perfect opportunity, and sneered darkly. "How about that? Did I hit the nail on the head? Experience counts, Frederick. In my eyes, you're just a small fry."The other Yorks joined in laughter, one after another. It seemed they were certain Frederick wouldn't dare go on a killing spree.Frederick smirked. "You're right. For Ms. York's sake, I can't kill you."Hearing this, the Yorks became even more arrogant. "Hmph! After all this talk, it turns out you're just a cowardly bully!""Frederick, go ahead and

Xavier had been fine moments ago. How could he suddenly collapse and bleed like this?!The Yorks were instantly thrown into chaos. "Frederick, what did you do to Lord Xavier?!""I just took back what rightfully belongs to me," Frederick replied casually. "Mr. York was already afflicted with natural degradation. It had nothing to do with me. Stop blaming me for everything. By the way, he should have about two hours left to live. Good luck!"With that, Frederick turned and left without another word."Wait! Frederick!"Xavier coughed up blood, and trembled all over. However, his call failed to stop Frederick. The latter had vanished without a trace."Dad! I think this guy is just bluffing!" Zacharias exclaimed desperately."Yeah! He's clearly threatening us! You get a check-up every year, and you're always in good health," Zeke added, trying to reassure himself.But Xavier felt like his world was crumbling. He knew his own body better than anyone else. He hadn't expected that on

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
