"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
Queenie was furious. "What do you mean by that?!" If he didn't intend to have her, why make her strip? She had undressed completely, and he had seen everything before dismissing her—wasn't that like mocking her, like she’s a clown in a circus?"Because your breasts are sagging." Frederick looked her up and down, and said sincerely, "Compared to Ms. York and Ms. Smith, you're way off. How tacky! And you want me to touch you? No way.""You're messing with me!" Queenie was stunned, but she immediately trembled with cold anger. "Do you know who you're rejecting? A celebrity who came to you willingly! You uncultured bumpkin! You can't even appreciate an opportunity!"Frederick sneered, "Do you think I'm like those sugar daddies and men who think with their lower parts?"With that, he swiftly retrieved a small camera from her jacket.Queenie was instantly ashen-faced."There are at least seven or eight of these on you," Frederick chuckled. "Will you voluntarily confess, or...should I
"Five hundred thousand?" Queenie asked skeptically.Theoretically, she would do it for five hundred thousand, but she would be more devoted if it was five million. If it were fifty million, she would be willing to risk her life."Five hundred million," Frederick said.Queenie shivered, and immediately knelt at Frederick's feet. Then, she said excitedly, "Mr. Lester, you can rest assured, my life from now on belongs to you! If you tell me to go east, I certainly won’t go west..."She had been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and her greatest skill was choosing sides. Clearly, this young man in front of her was likely to shake Centropolis to its core!Frederick smiled, and lifted her chin with his hand. "Then... Let’s get down to business.""Yes, sir!" Queenie nodded repeatedly.Just as she was about to get up and leave, Frederick grabbed her arm."Where are you going?""Mr. Lester, didn’t you say we should get down to business?" Queenie was confused."What I me
Selene had spent the entire night inside the luxurious private room of Golden Princess Karaoke in the city center. Her face was pale at the moment, and her hair was a mess.She managed to answer Frederick's call for a few seconds before a blond man with pierced ears behind her snatched the phone away and shouted, "Didn't I tell you already? It’s Mr. Hampton's birthday party. We don't want anyone using their phones! You're Mr. Hampton's classmate, aren't you? Are you that clueless?"Then, he slapped her and pushed her to the ground.The other female classmates looked at her with fear, but none dared to speak.Selene's face was drained of color, and she couldn't help trembling as she stuttered, "I-I've been here all night. I-I need to let my family know I'm safe!""Let them know you're safe? Aren't you just trying to tell them what's going on?" another man said with a sinister expression."No! Absolutely not! Roxy, please say something for me!" Selene pleaded in fear.The man host
Sawyer laughed heartily. "I told her I'd give her one hundred thousand dollars if she brought you here! Do you know how cheap she is? She only asked for five hundred each time we slept together!" Selene's face turned ashen. "Roxy, is that true?"Roxanne's eyes welled up with tears as she gritted her teeth. "Sawyer, you beast! You drugged me back then, and filmed us! You forced me to—"Sawyer chuckled. "Still trying to clean up your act? Then let me ask you—if it wasn't voluntary, why did you always dress up nicely and come out whenever I texted you? You happily accepted all those brand-name bags and perfumes I gave you. And now, you're trying to act high and mighty?""Sawyer, you're a bastard!" Roxanne's anger flared, though her face grew paler.Indeed, initially, Sawyer coerced her. But soon, she fell to his sweet talk—so much so that she even fantasized about becoming his girlfriend and leaping into the ranks of a wealthy wife."Selly, believe me! I didn't mean to harm you!
"I've said it, today's my birthday. If anyone makes me unhappy, I'll make sure they're unhappy too!" Sawyer sneered.Selene was the class princess, and she was known for her aloofness. Despite Sawyer's persistent attempts and various flirtatious moves, she remained indifferent. Her actions only fueled his strong desire to conquer her.He didn't care if she was willing, or if he had to force her. He would have her today! Otherwise, his reputation among his circle of friends would be nothing but a joke!Sawyer pinned Selene down on the sofa, and forced her to drink. She was too weak to resist as the bitter liquor slid down her throat.Her classmates watched helplessly as Sawyer forced Selene to follow his demands. They usually laughed and joked together, but none of them lifted a finger to intervene.Perhaps, this was human nature. In the face of power and influence, dignity was as worthless as scrap paper!"Fred, where are you? I miss you so much. I regret not listening to you. I
"What do you mean by that? Are you trying to bribe me? Do you think I'm the kind of person who can be bought with money?" Byron's voice was stern, but his expression softened subtly.That was right. He had a strong passion for luxury cars, especially supercars. There were dozens of them in his own garage alone.Sawyer sensed an opportunity, and pressed on, "It's just a personal gesture of goodwill. Besides, Mr. Morrison, you may not know this, but these two college girls are just acting innocent to inflate their value!"Byron raised an eyebrow. "Really? They both look like they've been crying.""Women nowadays are all drama queens. Mr. Morrison, you're too pure-hearted to understand the ways of the world. College girls selling themselves is nothing new! If you don't believe me, you can check it out yourself!" Sawyer asserted confidently."In honor of your birthday, I'll trust you this once. Remember, keep it low-key and quiet! After all, this is my turf," Byron said, raising his
