My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 552
"What? She's Mr. Hunt's niece?"The guard was stunned. Clutching his face, he apologized repeatedly, "I'm so sorry, miss! I'm new here, and I didn't know the rules!"Even though he was just a gatekeeper, working for the state government office made him feel superior, hence his arrogance. However, such people often turned into the most servile when confronted with someone more powerful.The other guard quickly stepped forward, respectfully ushering Willa and Frederick inside. "Ms. Zephyr, I remember you visiting with your father, the mayor of Mirage, when you were about ten, right? You've grown up so fast!"Willa smiled politely. "How's Uncle Dominic doing?""Mr. Hunt is doing well! I'll go inform him of your arrival right away!" The guard rushed off.Frederick was surprised. "It seems you have quite a close relationship with our state governor.""Sort of. When I was a child, my father was just a minor official in Centropolis and would occasionally visit the state government offi

The table was laden with exquisite food usually seen only on television. Each dish would cost Willa at least two months' salary."Hahaha! Willa, you've grown so much since I last saw you!" A middle-aged man with a potbelly, sparse hair, and a warm smile rose to greet her. He wore a loose, faded suit over a white shirt, but his wrist sported the latest Vacheron Constantin watch, and his feet were clad in expensive Italian leather shoes.His gaze lingered on Willa's face and chest, and a glint of appreciation shone in his otherwise murky eyes. "You've really blossomed into a beautiful woman!"Willa, who had been scrawny as a child, now had a strikingly curvy figure. She immediately lowered her head respectfully. "Hello, Uncle Dominic."The man was Dominic Hunt, the influential governor of Aston State. He had once been an obscure mid-level official in Centropolis, rising slowly through the ranks. Thanks to his connections with a powerful figure in the Imperial Capital, his caree

Dominic was actually an old pervert!Willa paled, and her heart pounded wildly in her chest.The fond memories from her childhood were all a lie! He had always been lecherous, wanting her even then. All those times he had her sit on his lap were just to satisfy his perverse desires!Frederick watched her with a smirk, clearly enjoying her discomfort. His expression seemed to say, "See? I was right all along."He had predicted Dominic's true nature, but Willa had rebuked him for it and accused him of being cynical.Dominic noticed Willa's reaction, and frowned. "Willa, that's not the attitude of someone asking for a favor. I thought you were prepared to show some gratitude for my help today. I even went to the trouble of preparing this meal for you. Are you trying to embarrass me?"Realizing she had upset him, Willa quickly apologized. "I'm sorry, Uncle Dominic. It's just been so long since I've seen you, and I'm feeling a bit awkward."Despite Dominic's lechery, he was still a p

Willa’s face darkened immediately. That old pervert! His greed knew no bounds!"How much do you want, Uncle Dominic?" she asked cautiously.Dominic held up three fingers."Thirty million?" Willa guessed. She was slightly surprised, but the amount was still within her means.Dominic’s sinister smile widened. "I want three hundred million!""Three hundred million?!" Willa’s eyes widened in shock. Even if it was the Zephyr family, they couldn’t easily come up with that amount!Dominic was outrageous!Willa glanced at Frederick, who had been silent the whole time, hoping he would intervene. But Frederick remained utterly indifferent, not saying a word.Damn it! She had come all this way for him, and now had to endure this old pervert’s demands!Willa fumed inwardly."I have to face Chester's wrath, so three hundred million is already a bargain! If it were anyone else, it would be at least a billion!" Dominic said.Willa had no choice but to grit her teeth and accept his term
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 556
Willa’s skin crawled; she was horrified. She tried to pull her leg away, but Dominic’s grip was unrelenting. With a thin, insincere smile, he said, “Willa, are you really going to embarrass me like this?”Her face shifted from pale to flushed. “Dominic Hunt! I have my limits. I’ve always respected you as an elder, but don’t push it!”Willa had thought that as the governor of Aston State, Dominic would at least have some self-restraint. But after just one drink, he was already groping her leg. She dreaded to think what he might do if he had a few more drinks. Who knew what kind of beastly behavior he might indulge in?Dominic chuckled darkly. “So that’s it, then? No more negotiations? Fine, I’m leaving!”Willa panicked. “What about Sheldon?”“Hmph! Of course, he’ll be publicly executed tomorrow!” Dominic’s face turned sullen. “Do you think my temper is so mild that I’ll let a woman reject me repeatedly?”He started to get up to leave.Willa’s face turned ashen. “Uncle Dominic,
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 557
As soon as Willa whimpered, Dominic let out a pained cry; he was hurled across the room like a rag doll. He crashed into the wall, and bled profusely. The one who had acted was none other than Frederick, who had been silent until now.“Frederick!” Willa gasped, her eyes filling with tears as she saw the cold Frederick stepping in to protect her. “Thank you—”“No, I should be the one thanking you.” Frederick twisted his wrist. “You've sacrificed so much for something that doesn’t even concern you. Willa, I’ll remember this debt for the rest of my life!”Willa blushed deeply. “I thought you looked down on me. I thought you think I was just a loose woman and that I was tainted—”“Do I have the right to say that?” Frederick gave a self-deprecating smile. “If anyone should be looked down upon, it’s me—someone who needs women to protect him!”Willa’s nose tingled, and she fought back tears. Her resilience had always been her strength. No matter how often she fell, she’d pick herself u

“You’re using my family to threaten me?” Willa’s face twisted with fury. “How dare you? If you push me any further, I swear I’ll fight you with everything I have!”“Go ahead and try!” Dominic was utterly unfazed by Willa’s threats. It was as if he had her every weakness mapped out. His tactics were ruthless and impressive. It was no wonder he could obtain his position as the state governor! He had maneuvered Willa into a corner instantly, leaving her pale and helpless, with no leverage against him.Just then, Frederick pulled out his phone.Dominic's smile turned cold and mocking. “Planning to call for backup, are we? Don’t forget, this is the state government office. There’s a small army of military and police here. Just a single signal from me and reinforcements will come rushing in from all corners! I'm afraid that by the time your people arrive, mine will have already taken care of things!”"Not at all." Frederick shook his head, denying Dominic's words. "I just wanted to
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 559
Yes, an elegant tyrant.Only this phrase could truly capture Frederick, a man of both refinement and ruthless bloodshed. Ordering the underground forces to "protect" the governor’s family? Only Frederick would dare to pull off something like that!What stunned Willa even more was that he could even command Percy, the newly risen underground king of Aston State. Percy was rumored to be increasingly arrogant and uncontrollable. Yet, in Frederick’s presence, he was as obedient as a lapdog.Dominic’s psychological defenses finally crumbled. “Spare my family! I’ll give you Sheldon! I'll have someone pick him up right now!”Willa was thrilled. “That’s great! Let’s go, then!”Frederick stopped her, and said leisurely, “There’s no rush. Some matters still need to be settled.”Willa was puzzled. “What matters?”Frederick calmly continued, “We're not paying the three hundred million.”Dominic grimaced in pain. “Fine!”“As for us rescuing Sheldon,” Frederick went on, “you must not te

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
