"Mom! Mom…!"

The young man's smile immediately vanished. He threw himself on the old lady, wailing and crying bitterly.

Frederick's lips quirked upwards. "Why are you crying?"

"My mom is dead! She's not breathing anymore," sobbed the young man. "It's okay, Doctor, I don't blame you. It's all because I don't have money!"

He wasn't the kind of unreasonable man who would cause trouble for doctors when his family members couldn't be saved.

Frederick had only charged him a thousand dollars, and had gone out of his way to try and save his mother—it was already going beyond the call of duty.

How could he blame Frederick?

But Frederick said, "Your mom isn't dead. If you don't believe me, put your ear to her chest and listen for a heartbeat."

The young man was stunned. He stopped crying, and quickly pressed his ear against his mother's chest. There was the lively sound of her heartbeat, even healthier than his own!

Frederick explained, "I created an anaerobic environment inside you

    "I've packed up your medicine. I'll give you a discount of one hundred and fifty thousand. Go back to where you came from," Lois said haughtily.He chuckled as he tilted his head. Then, he removed his foot from Frederick's hand. "That worthless woman’s pathetic life isn't worth saving. You understand what I mean, right?"Upon hearing this, the young man immediately roared, "Don't you dare insult my mom!"Smack!Just as he finished speaking, two burly guards from Divine Sanctum leaped forward and delivered a resounding slap across his face. Several of the young man's teeth flew out, splattering blood on the half-tile ground."They're Savant Grandmasters!"Everyone gasped, hastily retreating several steps. Even the guards were Savant Grandmasters! No wonder Divine Sanctum dared to act so arrogantly—that was where their confidence came from!However, Frederick was unfazed by the intimidation. He continued to lower his head and decisively inserted the silver needle into the old la

    "You're so noisy!"Just as Louis finished speaking, a member of the Dragon Brigade suddenly acted, smashing his head with a palm.Boom!A gush of blood sprayed from Louis's head, and he collapsed to the ground.Frederick was dumbfounded. Weren't they here to rescue Louis? Why did they suddenly kill him?"Calm down. Mr. Lester, we're not here to fight you.""Louis was just a small fry, but he dared to order us around. He deserved to die, nothing more."One of them handed Frederick a cigarette and lit it."We're from the Dragon Brigade. My codename is Peacock, and that guy is Tiger Shark. We came here to meet you."Frederick had heard of the Dragon Brigade before, where members were known only by their codenames.They were known as the team with the cleanest and most honorable reputation in the Imperial Capital. In truth, they were a secret agency that specialized in handling shady situations the upper class couldn't handle themselves. Their members were distributed throughout

    Frederick had infuriated both Peacock and Tiger Shark, and they held nothing back.Tiger Shark charged like a tank towards Frederick. He looked unstoppable.With just one hand, Frederick instantly halted Tiger Shark's movement, leaving him unable to move an inch.Peacock grew impatient when Tiger Shark showed no signs of moving. "Tiger Shark! Stop fooling around! Finish him off so we can report back!""I... I can't move! This guy is really skilled!" Tiger Shark yelled.Tiger Shark stood frozen on the spot. He was frustrated beyond words. Despite exerting all his strength, he couldn't move!Peacock was stunned. "How is this possible?"A Dragon Brigade member's combat prowess was comparable to the top twenty Savant Grandmasters in Aston State, and that was referring to an ordinary soldier from the brigade. If it were a higher-ranking member, they could easily annihilate all the experts in Aston State without a scratch."Do you need my help? I'll take half the credit!" Peacock sai

    Tiger Shark was frozen and dumbfounded.Weren't they here to drive Frederick out of Centropolis? How did this turn into a full-blown job recruitment? Peacock was even detailing their benefits so specifically!What was going on?!Peacock continued passionately, "In the Dragon Brigade, we directly obey commands from the Imperial Capital's court. No force has the authority to command us. We wield great power and hold high status..."Frederick burst out laughing. "Interesting! You're quite interesting!"He saw through Peacock's strategy of using retreat as a tactic to advance.Then, he said in a serious tone, "I won't join the Dragon Brigade. However, I can do you a favor. Your brigade wants me out of Centropolis, right? Fine! I never planned to stay here anyway. I just need to finish some business. At most, I'll need a month. I'll leave Centropolis after that.""Are you asking the Dragon Brigade to accommodate you for a month?" Tiger Shark gritted his teeth, enduring intense pain a

    When Frederick saw Jennifer revert to her normal self and heard her speak such heartless words to him, he felt a mix of emotions. "Why?" he asked.Jennifer's expression was cold as ice. "Because I misjudged you! You're just a jerk!"Frederick clicked his tongue. "Ms. York, you're being unreasonable! Do you know I came all the way from Mirage City to rescue you after you were captured in Centropolis? Do you still not know that Zoey framed me? I didn't do anything that day!"Jennifer sneered. "Rescue me? Do you know how long it took from when the Crimson Society captured me to when you finally came here? A week! A whole week!"If I hadn't pretended to be crazy, I would have been defiled by Theodore!"And where were you during that time? Did you finally remember I existed after you fooled around enough? You suddenly remembered that I was still useless to you, right? Otherwise, Aerowind Enterprise wouldn't have anyone supporting it, and it wouldn't survive!"Jennifer continued pr

    "I... I'm fine..." Jennifer bit her crimson lips, and tried her best to control her voice. She felt Frederick's hand move slowly, sliding smoothly over her lower abdomen and further down. She couldn't help but gasp, her whole body tense and trembling."Ms. York, are you really okay? You sound like you're sick. Should I call an ambulance for you right now?" Lydia asked with concern."I said I'm fine!" Jennifer couldn't bear it anymore, so she threw her phone to the side after hanging up.Then she turned around, her face flushed as she glared at Frederick. "I won't forgive you!"Frederick grabbed her hair, greedily sucking and biting every inch of her skin. "I never expected you to forgive me. You wanted to drop all the pretenses, right? Well, I'm not pretending to be a gentleman anymore!"The temperature between them rose gradually, and their breathing became increasingly rapid.Frederick lifted Jennifer up, and leaned her against the sofa cushion.However, Jennifer's delicate

    "Tsk! I think you're just jealous. If women can't have something, they want to ruin it. That's not good." Frederick smirked.The corners of Jennifer's mouth twitched. "I can't be bothered with your narcissism! I'm booking a flight back to Mirage City today. Want to join me? I still have a first-class seat available.""I'll return in a few days. By the way, Zoey's framing of you this time is likely orchestrated by the York family behind the scenes," Frederick said.Jennifer scowled. "I'm well aware. Zoey drugged me back then, and said it was on Grandfather's orders. When I return to Mirage City this time, don't blame me for causing chaos and bloodshed!"Frederick knew Jennifer wasn't someone to mess with. With her ruthless tactics, the York family was definitely in for trouble! But..."Even in revenge, you should be prudent. A cornered dog will jump over a wall," Frederick cautioned. Xavier could do anything when he's desperate."Don't worry. I know what I'm doing," Jennifer s

    Frederick glanced at her without any change in his expression. She was indeed stunning. Her beauty was compared to celebrities.Queenie smiled charmingly. "Hello, Mr. Lester. My name is Queenie Turner. I'm a local actress and singer from Aston. I was also the runner-up in the Sialon Beauty Pageant three years ago.""So, what gift did you bring me? And why are you delivering it on behalf of someone?" Frederick asked directly."The gift, of course, is...myself!" Queenie swiftly unbuttoned her coat. Underneath, she wore only a revealing crop top that accentuated her slender waist. It also exposed her midriff and highlighted her beautiful curves, especially her fair cleavage that quickened the blood circulation in any man.With hands on her hips and seductive eyes, she purred, "I've come here on behalf of the Nine Great Ascension Clans' esteemed members. They sent me as a gift to you, Mr. Lester!"Frederick suddenly understood, and chuckled. "I see. So this is about the Crimson Robe

    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
