Those words added fuel to the fire, infuriating Jennifer to the core.

"Frederick! Did you see that? Zoey was speaking up for you, and you're still trying to argue! Can't you act like a man? Didn't I tell you before? You can flirt with my best friend, but something like that only applies to her!"

Frederick was agitated, and exclaimed, "Ms. York, I didn't touch her at all! Could you please calm down and let me explain?"

At this moment, Zoey pursed her lips. "Jen, it was my fault. I accidentally fell and landed in his arms. He didn't do anything to me. Please don't think too much."

Frederick was stunned by her words.

On the surface, it seemed like she was defending him, but it was actually making matters worse.

Oh, god! This woman's acting skills could win an Oscar! How could she lie so blatantly without batting an eyelid?

Hearing this, Jennifer exploded in rage.

"Do you think I'm blind? She fell down? Would a fall leave Zoey's clothes in disarray? Frederick, I'm really disappoin

    "How did this happen...?"After flicking off the syringes, Frederick felt like he had been struck in the head. Fear unlike any he had ever known flickered in his eyes. The needles had somehow disabled his ability to use his inner aura, rendering him as powerless as an ordinary person. As the Dark Monarch, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation—something capable of harming him!Whoosh!The black bolts of lightning gradually materialized into fully armed assassins wearing black hoods and masks.Frederick immediately distanced himself, and shouted angrily, "Who are you people?" The assassins remained silent, swiftly moving into position and surrounding him tightly. In the corner of his eye, he noticed a conspicuous V-shaped tattoo on each of their wrists."These people are...Organization V members?!" He instantly felt a sense of imminent danger.Why had Organization V targeted him? Was it because of his visit to Seiryu, or the incident involving Eva? Fre

    A terrifying energy surged from Frederick's forehead, erupting like a volcano.Even though his powers were suppressed, they couldn't restrain the colossal energy surging within him, akin to the primordial forces of ancient times. Once unleashed, its might was comparable to the explosion of ten hydrogen bombs.The assassins sensed the danger—immediately, they changed their course and fled.Frederick sneered. "Trying to run now? Too late! You can all go to hell!"But at this critical moment, a black bulletproof military-grade Porsche appeared. At the same time, dozens of large trucks sped in from all directions. They crashed into the black-clothed assassins, spilling blood and flesh everywhere.The bulletproof Porsche came to a screeching stop before Frederick, and the driver opened the door."Mr. Lester, get in quickly!""Who are you?" Frederick was stunned.The scene before him left him dumbfounded. Who could manage such a grand scene?"Ms. Yarborough sent us to rescue you! Th

    "Besides, I'm just a streetwalker. I specialize in taking advantage of rich folks. I've never even held a kitchen knife before! Now, you want me to do this kind of thing…" Zoey protested, discontented.Xavier said solemnly, "Don't worry. Our family has prepared an escape route for you. We still have connections in Mirage City, and we can guarantee you a safe way out.""Your father's health isn't very good. In a hundred years, the future of our family will depend on you youngsters..."Upon hearing this, Zoey suddenly became excited. The implication behind these words was clear—didn't that mean she also had the right to inherit the Yorks’ fortune?As a woman who didn't have anywhere to belong, her craving for wealth and material had reached a morbid level."Alright, Grandpa, just give me the order! As your granddaughter, I won't hesitate to do anything for the York family, even if it means risking my life!" she vowed, thumping her chest.Xavier chuckled heartily. "You mustn't say s

    The man nodded, and smiled. "That's right.""What does Liana want? Where am I?" Frederick asked in rapid succession.His mind was a mess, filled with questions. How did Liana know he was attacked? Why did she save him and bring him here?"This is a cruise ship. Today is Ms. Yarborough's twenty-fifth birthday, and there's a party onboard to celebrate," the driver replied calmly. "Mr. Lester, this room is completely soundproof. You don't need to worry about being disturbed. Please rest here for a few days. We have staff who will deliver food and drinks. Once the party ends, Ms. Yarborough will explain everything to you."After saying that, the driver left swiftly. He didn't give Frederick a chance to ask more questions.Frederick narrowed his eyes. "There are ten bodyguards at the door. They say it's for my protection, but it feels more like imprisonment. That woman wanted to kill me before, so why is she suddenly being so nice? There must be something going on!"He knew he could

    "But what? I just pulled open your collar, and you dropped the tray? Are you trying to cause trouble?" the man sneered arrogantly. "I can complain to the organizers and get you fired! You'll be working for nothing!"The waitress was terrified. "No, please! I'm sorry! Please don't!"Working on the cruise ship paid well, especially today, with each server getting at least ten thousand in tips. She had been working since five in the morning, and didn’t want all her hard work to go to waste. A few days' wages added up to a substantial amount, and being fired would mean losing all that money and possibly facing a fine."Hey, Mr. Klein! Bullying another girl, huh? Haha!" A few young men, all rich second-generations, came over with mocking smiles, arms around each other's shoulders. "Don't cry! Crying won't help! Can't you see Mr. Klein likes you? He wants to take you to a room!""Just go with Mr. Klein and do what he wants. That way, you'll keep your job. He'll even buy you new cloth

    "Murderer! He killed someone!" The crowd was shocked, and some shrieked in hysteria.Stuart's head was a gruesome mess of blood and flesh. It looked like a pile of rotten meat, and the sight was utterly revolting. His friends were furious."This is outrageous! Who is this guy?""Judging by his clothes, he seems to be a guard on this cruise ship.""Damn it! He's just a lowly worker, but he dares to hit Mr. Klein? Doesn't he know the Klein family is the most powerful family in Southridge City?""Even Percy Swanson, the underground king of Southridge City with thousands of followers, bows and steps aside when he sees the Klein family!"The waitress was terrified, and grabbed Frederick's hand. "Please, you must leave! If those powerful families get here, they'll kill you!""I'll explain it was self-defense. He started it," Frederick said calmly."It won't matter! The guests on this cruise ship are all Ms. Yarborough's friends from Aston State and powerful families! They're all in

    Killing these small fries was as easy as squashing an ant. It was just so fun!"Am I dreaming? Are they all dead?"The scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere shocked everyone, and their minds were blown."Ahhh!" The remaining Klein family Savant Grandmasters were covered in blood. They collapsed to the ground in terror and screamed, "D-Demon! That's a demon!"Their earlier arrogance was completely gone.Frederick smirked humorlessly. "Yes, I beat Mr. Klein. Isn't the Klein family supposed to be powerful? Come on, show me what Southridge City's top family is made of!""I'm so scared!" he mocked, a sarcastic smile spreading across his face. It was as if he was venting all the frustration he had gotten earlier from Jennifer and Organization V.Stuart's friends were now huddled in the corner, trembling. They couldn't even bring themselves to glance at Frederick."Sir..." The waitress was the most shocked. She couldn’t believe a bodyguard from the Yarborough family could ins

    "Hah! Playing dumb, are we?" Justin sneered coldly, his eyes flashing with murderous intent. "Then you can just die...""Wait! Wait! Mr. Vaughn, hold on!"Suddenly, a staggering figure rushed over in a panic—it was Liana's driver!Panting heavily, the driver exclaimed, "Mr. Vaughn, please show mercy! Mr. Yarborough brought this man here!"This statement was like a bombshell, causing an uproar among the crowd."What? Wasn't he an intruder? How is he now one of Ms. Yarborough's people?""He's someone Ms. Yarborough brought onto the cruise? He must be of significant status! How could he just be a mere bodyguard? It doesn't add up!"Justin's eyes widened, and he chuckled skeptically. "Logan, you must be joking, right? Ms. Yarborough is a proud and exceptional woman. Why would she bring someone like this to her birthday and engagement party? Is he your nephew or illegitimate son? Is that why you're defending him?"The crowd burst into laughter at his words.Logan wiped the cold s

    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
