Jasmine's jaw dropped as she watched the astonishing scene unfold before her. Once again, Frederick sent a Savant Grandmaster flying with a single slap! And he wasn't just any criminal—it was the Ripper, one of the most feared wanted men! "By the way, where's Ms. York?" Frederick asked casually. "I don't see her anywhere. Did she leave early?" Jasmine snapped back to reality and hurriedly urged, "Oh no! We've got to get back to Jen! Another Ripper has captured her. She's in danger!" Shocked, Frederick's eyes narrowed in surprise and he asked worriedly, "Where is she? Show me the way!" He had no idea there were two Rippers! He had let his guard down! Just as Jasmine was about to lead Frederick away, Raven reappeared with a loud thud and landed in front of them. Despite the damage to half of his face, he laughed arrogantly, the sound twisted by the damage to his face. "Bahaha! This is interesting! It's my first time encountering a strong opponent like you in this forsaken
Frederick's expression remained impassive as he responded, "Is that so? Well then, you can go straight to hell." "With someone of your caliber?" the man scoffed. "I could take down a hundred weaklings like you without even breaking a sweat." Just then, a group of heavily armed personnel suddenly appeared on the scene. "All civilians, evacuate the area immediately! It's not safe here!" A tall, striking woman with chestnut, wavy hair cascading over her shoulders stepped forward. She strode confidently in combat boots, her demeanor radiating pride and assurance. Donovan followed closely behind her. He shouted at Frederick, "You again? Useless loser! This is not a place for amateurs like you! Move aside! Captain Zephyr is in charge!" After fleeing from the scene, Donovan had rushed to headquarters to report the situation. The elite team responded promptly, ready to take down Ripper. The tall woman stood with her arms crossed, her pale skin and sharp features commanding atte
"How dare you? You’re a scoundrel! You shameless jerk!" Willa was seething with anger, her heart ready to explode with fury. Frederick remained unfazed and threatened, "You've got three seconds to apologize, or we'll do it the hard way. "3... "2... "1!" "I'm sorry!" Willa spat out, glaring at Frederick with resentment. Her desire to devour him alive burnt fiercely. Frederick released her, but not before giving her a playful pinch on the bottom. "Consider that a little interest! Not bad; you've got quite a nice butt!" Fuming, Willa was beside herself with fury. Never before had a man treated her with such disrespect! Frederick turned to Rhino, who was barely alive and demanded, "Tell me everything you know about Organization V." Rhino's expression shifted as he glanced at the V tattoo on his chest. Gritting his teeth, he refused. "I can't say anything! If I speak, I'm dead!" Without hesitation, Frederick snapped all ten of Rhino's fingers. He screamed with agony. "
Alec hurried to the reception room, where he heard the sounds of a woman struggling. "Mr. Z, what are you doing? Ugh! Don't touch me! I belong to Mr. Lambert; you can't! Stop it!" Alec frowned as he entered the room. A man in a black robe was having his way with Alec's new lover, who was sitting on his lap. Her underwear was shredded beyond recognition, reduced to mere strips of cloth that barely covered her figure. She had just turned eighteen, and Alec hadn't even had a chance to be with her yet. When the young girl saw Alec, she burst into tears and ran toward him. Alec chuckled and said, "Mr. Z, always the ladies' man! But this one is mine. I'm afraid I can't let you have her. I'll find a few prettier ones for you instead." Mr. Z smirked playfully and replied, "Mr. Lambert, you're lucky to have such a young beauty by your side. But don't worry; I won't take her from you. Just let me borrow her for a few days." The young girl panicked and exclaimed, "No, that's not r
Jennifer kicked Frederick off the bed, and he hit the floor with a thud.Grumbling, he said, "Ms. York! You kept me awake all night, and now you're kicking me aside? How is that fair?""All night? What are you talking about? Get out!" Jennifer snapped, shooting him an angry glare. She noticed her underwear scattered on the floor, and it fueled her suspicion. This guy must've taken advantage of her while she was drunk, undressing her, and who knows what else he’d done?"Jen! Are you awake?" Jasmine asked, barging in after hearing the commotion. Setting the record straight, she said, "Frederick brought you back last night, but you were so drunk, you practically threw yourself at him, stripping off your clothes. I couldn't stop you!""I had to coax and trick you into bed to get you to sleep. I didn't do anything, all right?" Frederick retorted, his annoyance evident. "You kept me up all night with your antics, and then you kicked me off the bed! Can we be a bit reasonable here, Ms
"Soup?" Frederick looked puzzled. "You want me to come in for soup, Ms. York?"He couldn't help but wonder what Jennifer was playing at."What else?" Jennifer tossed her hair back. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Officer Sanders, what's the occasion?""Jennifer, I came to see you because…I wanted to clear things up about last night." Donovan chuckled awkwardly. "I've got you some health supplements!"Jennifer responded coolly, "I'm fine, thanks. You ran pretty fast last night. With your speed, we might not have been caught by the Ripper."Donovan's expression shifted at her remark and he clarified, "I was going to get backup! I know there was a misunderstanding, which is why I brought a special gift to make up for you." He perked up and added, "I have an invitation to the Laguna Business Banquet hosted by the Tiger Faction. It's the event of the year with all the major company owners eager to attend."Jennifer lost her composure and asked, "An invitation? How did you manage tha
Jennifer fell into rage. She snapped, "Frederick! You enjoy all the perks and still complain! Without Captain Zephyr's assistance, you would have died last night. If you hadn't stepped in when you did, I would have already fired you!"Jasmine overheard the entire exchange from inside the house. She quickly stepped outside to calm things down. "The soup's ready; let's eat while it's still hot."Jennifer was done with arguing. She went in and took a seat at the table and sipped her soup with a frosty look.Frederick reluctantly followed her in, approaching her. "Ms. York, I need to discuss something with you.""Unless you're apologizing, I don't want to hear it," she replied, her tone as cold as frost.Frederick grimaced.Apologize? It wasn't his fault; why should he?Yet he needed her help. He swallowed his pride and relented. "Okay, okay, I was wrong. I was jealous. Does that satisfy you?"Jennifer's demeanor softened slightly as she asked, "What is it? Are you looking for a
Frederick felt a bit shy and quickly looked away as he murmured, "Eva, I..."Eva interrupted him with a laugh. "I'm just kidding with you! Drop by my office before you leave, okay?"As she walked away, her hips swayed in a way that caught everyone's eye.John smirked and leaned in close to Frederick. He teased, "Fred, do you think Eva likes you? The way she looked at you, it's like she wants to gobble you up!"Mary chimed in with a grin. "I heard Eva's only thirty and has been divorced for over two years now. Women like that often feel lonely, you know."Embarrassed, Frederick shot them a glance and said, "You two are gossiping too much. Eva's just being nice because she's my boss. Don't read too much into it."However, he couldn't help but notice something strange about Eva’s chest—a dark aura seemed to hover over it. It definitely wasn't a good sign.With half an hour left in the workday, Frederick headed to Eva's office."Hi, Eva.""Hey, Fred! Come in, have a seat!" Frede
