My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 586
Bam!The enchanted wooden staff came down hard, but it didn’t land on Jennifer’s back.Luther’s eyes nearly popped out of his head as he stared at his empty hands in shock. "Where’s the staff?"“Right here,” Frederick said, twirling the wooden staff in his hand with a mischievous smile.Luther trembled, his voice shaking. “What are you doing? Interrupting my ritual will bring divine retribution! Do you understand?!”Frederick shrugged. “I’m not worried. I don’t fear the heavens, so why would I fear retribution?”The entire room froze, and everyone's expression suddenly changed.Margaret was furious. “Shut your mouth! Such blasphemous talk! Do you want our family to be struck down?”Xerxes’s face darkened. “Boy, you should remember that the heavens are always watching. I advise you to choose your words carefully, or else, you and Jennifer can leave right now, and this conversation will be over.”“No! Uncle Xerxes, that’s just Frederick’s opinion, not mine,” Jennifer said.Then

Jennifer broke out in a cold sweat, and she glared at Frederick in exasperation.“I told you not to act rashly! I know that the mystic is a fake, but they believe in him. I was trying to play along and turn the situation to our advantage!”Frederick shrugged. “Ms. York, I understand you have your own plans, but as long as I’m here, I won’t let you sacrifice yourself to achieve your goals.”“Stubborn, unreasonable jerk…” Jennifer muttered, but she couldn’t help feeling a swell of gratitude. He did all this just to protect her from harm.Jennifer rubbed her nose, which had started to tingle, and quickly tried to salvage the situation. “Granduncle Xerxes, Great-grandmother, I apologize. Frederick didn’t mean any harm… He just couldn’t stand seeing you being manipulated by that fake mystic. You have to believe that human effort can overcome fate. Your success is due to your own hard work, not some divine guidance,” she pleaded.But Margaret and Xerxes weren’t so easily swayed.“G
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 588
To make Fortune Five Enterprise's stock hit the upper limit, something monumental would have to happen—like Fortune Five Enterprise securing a massive project in the Imperial Capital, or releasing an exceptional annual financial report. However, such events were out of Felix’s reach due to his limited influence and connections, which were primarily confined to Aston State.Frederick, just a young subsidiary manager, had no means to cause such a spike in Fortune Five Enterprise’s stock. So how could he achieve it?“Frederick, did you get some insider information that Fortune Five Enterprise’s stock will hit the upper limit this afternoon? Is someone manipulating the stock price?” Jennifer whispered in disbelief.But if it was insider trading, it would never escape the notice of Xerxes, known as the godfather of Aston State’s stock market. Their chances seemed slim.Frederick winked playfully. “Take a guess.”Jennifer’s jaw dropped. “You didn’t just...make this up, did you?”“I

If Xerxes had bought a large amount of Fortune Five Enterprise's stock right before the market opened, he would have made a fortune by now! His standing in the stock market also would have risen to a new level—but it was all ruined by that fraud!“Get the hell out of my house, you worthless scoundrel!” Xerxes roared.Xerxes's handprint on Luther's face was obvious. Luther trembled with fear. For years, he had lived off the York family, enjoying their hospitality and acting high and mighty. If he got kicked out now, with his only skill being deception, he was likely to starve on the streets.“Master York, I... I was just having an off day! That guy tricked me!” Luther pleaded desperately, his face ashen.When he got no response, he turned to Margaret and shouted, “Madam York, please speak for me! If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have falsely claimed that Jennifer had a cursed fate just to give you an excuse to drive them away!”His words hit like a thunderclap, shocking everyo

"Jennifer! Are you threatening me?" Xerxes quivered with rage. "Show some respect! I’m your elder by two generations! I’m your granduncle!"Jennifer's face was stern. "If you side with the Yorks, then you’re no longer my elder. You’re my enemy!"She continued, "I can accept you kicking us out, but I cannot accept you colluding with the Yorks!"That was her bottom line. Jennifer could endure numerous slights, insults, and exclusions—but never betrayal. Otherwise, she would rather go down fighting, taking her betrayers with her!Xerxes was intimidated by her determination, and said reluctantly, "Fine! I’ll send Xavier’s butler away.""No need," Frederick interjected calmly. "I took care of that problem for you on my way back."Jennifer was taken aback, then looked at Frederick with newfound admiration. This man really knew how to handle things!Xerxes was stunned for a few seconds, then his face contorted in fury. "Go check on Xavier’s butler!"One of the servants, pale and tre

The sight of the mesmerizing figure, like a work of art, filled Frederick's eyes in an instant.He paused, feeling a sudden surge of heat below.But it was fleeting, and he quickly suppressed it.He glanced at the model-like body before him, and complimented, "You must practice aerobics, right? You have a great figure!"The room had no surveillance or eavesdropping devices, and there was nothing hidden in her silk nightgown. What was this woman’s purpose?He decided to wait and see.“Master York sent me...to make you feel good. Don’t worry, Ms. York is in the next room. She knows nothing, and will never find out.” The woman was blushing as she spoke coyly.Instinctively, she moved closer to Frederick. She pressed her body against his chest, her slender fingers wrapping around his leg.Frederick quickly grabbed her delicate wrist, his hand accidentally brushing against her impressive chest. “How dare you act without my permission? I’m not the kind of man who thinks with his

Judith was shocked. “Mr. Lester, are you... Are you joking?”Replace Xerxes? That would mean inheriting his wealth, status, and power!Frederick's smile was sharp. “Do I look like I’m joking?”To Frederick, Xerxes’s actions were reckless and self-destructive. Pretending to cooperate while secretly trying to sow discord between him and Jennifer? Such treachery couldn't be tolerated for long. Better to find a new partner!“If you agree, I can ensure that you replace Xerxes in a short time. Do you want that? Just one word from you.”Frederick stared into her eyes.Judith’s mind was in turmoil. She hadn’t expected this man to stir up her long-suppressed urge to rebel. She didn’t want to be her father’s puppet anymore!Whether this was real or not, she realized this might be her last chance to change her fate.Judith lifted her chin, meeting his gaze with unwavering determination. “I agree!”Frederick nodded approvingly. “Good!”He approached Judith, one hand gripping her face w

Jennifer was practically kicking Frederick when he was down.Frederick couldn’t help but complain, “Ms. York, I’m innocent! I’ve never been wronged so much in my life!”It’s not like he sought out these women; they came to him! Also, he didn’t just sleep with any woman that came his way.However, Jennifer wasn’t easily swayed. She walked away with a cold expression, not giving Frederick a chance to explain.He was about to run after her, he received a long-awaited phone call—from Queenie!His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly answered. If this was about Sheldon’s whereabouts, it was more urgent than smoothing things over with Jennifer.“Mr. Lester, I found him! I know where Sheldon is!” Queenie said excitedly. “He’s in Central Bay Tower, the joint headquarters of the Nine Great Ascension Clans. I got this intel after several nights of getting sleeping with the right people. You owe me big time for this!”Frederick’s heart raced. “Don’t worry, you’ll get more than your fair sh

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
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 1001
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
