Frederick felt uncomfortable. He glanced around and asked, "Ms. Smith, don't you think you're a bit much? Everyone is staring at us."

With a beaming smile, Jasmine replied, "They're just jealous!"

Frederick's mouth twitched, unable to form a response.

"By the way, you mentioned Jen was in danger here, right? But it doesn't seem like there are any traps, from what I can tell," Jasmine said, shifting the topic.

Frederick shook his head, explaining, "Danger often hides in the shadows. It's not absent; it just hasn't shown itself yet."

Meanwhile, Jennifer was upstairs in a business meeting.

When she saw Jasmine and Frederick, displeasure flickered across her face.

Why was he here? Did he show up at the banquet, trying to irritate her even more?

"Would you like me to deal with him?" Donovan made the suggestion with malicious intent.

Jennifer dismissed the idea. "Leave it. Just ignore him. I don't want him to interrupt my networking here."

She had planned meetings with several b

    Jennifer was well aware that Frederick, who came from a modest background, wasn't familiar with the games played by the wealthy elite. Despite their laid-back appearance, Stan and his friends were worldly and accustomed to high society, having grown up with one-on-one tutoring and luxurious international education. In terms of various skills, they far surpassed the average person. Moreover, betting a million on a game with such poor odds was a sure path to disaster. Jennifer's expression was stern as she said, "You're just a low-wage worker earning a few thousand a month. What will you do if you lose? How will you cover a million-dollar debt? Your family struggled to raise you; don't ruin your life trying to show off." After a moment of shock, Stan and his friends burst into laughter. "Man! We seriously thought you were a wealthy child in disguise; however, you are a poor child earning a pitiful wage." "If you can't afford to play, then scram! This isn't a game for someone

    Scoring a perfect game in billiards was a rarity, having only been achieved a few times in the sport's history. Scientifically, the likelihood of pocketing every ball due to variables like the cue ball's trajectory, air resistance, and friction was almost zero. Yet, at that moment, every ball effortlessly sank into the pockets. Milo found this hard to believe and shouted on top of his lungs, "This guy must be cheating! No one can score a perfect game!" Jasmine couldn't help but smirk, saying, “All this equipment is yours. If you're suggesting Frederick cheated, are you implying that you're cheaters too?"The onlookers exchanged glances, but none were able to counter her point. Frederick replied casually, "What? Isn't billiards all about pocketing the balls? I thought this was supposed to be hard, but it's really easy!" He'd only played a couple of times, but for someone like Hades, it was a walk in the park. Frederick provoked, "Got any other challenges? I'm game!" His c

    Donovan's complexion changed rapidly at the criticism. Suddenly, a muscular man with an imposing appearance emerged from the crowd. It was Sebastian, Mirage City's top Krav Maga expert. He had beaten several international pros and was considered the closest one could get to being a Savant Grandmaster. "Sebastian, I'm glad you could make it!" Stan said, rushing over. "We've got a troublemaker here who hit me and said everyone was worthless!" Sebastian's temper flared, and he shouted, "Who has the guts to say that? Didn’t he insult me too?!" Stan made things up on the spot, claiming, "I even mentioned your name, but he said you're as insignificant as an ant to him." Sebastian's eyes blazed with anger. He scoffed coldly, "Looks like I haven't killed anyone in a while and some people have forgotten to fear me!" A chilling aura emanated from him, sending shivers down everyone's spines. "This guy's leveled up! He's almost at the level of a Savant Grandmaster!" Sebastian stood

    "If you bark a few times, I might just let today's incident slide," Frederick remarked, his eyes narrowed and his expression calm.Surprisingly, Sebastian actually got down on all fours and barked. "Woof! Woof woof! Mr. Lester, if it means you’ll forgive me, I'll even call you father!"Frederick curled his lip in disdain. "Forget it! I can't afford to have a son like you."Jennifer observed in stunned silence from upstairs.What was happening? She had encountered Sebastian before. He was undeniably an arrogant, rich kid. And now he had actually humbled himself to this extent? It was truly bewildering.Donovan approached. "Jennifer, Mr. Lambert has invited us for tea on the third floor. I managed to arrange this opportunity for you after some difficulty.""Mr. Lambert?"When the Tiger Faction was mentioned, a subtle unease crept into Jennifer's heart. Nevertheless, she nodded resolutely, trusting Donovan."All right! Hold onto my bag. I'll be right back from the restroom.""Sur

    Jennifer narrowed her eyes. "You're letting me go?" Alec responded with a dark grin. "Marrying into my family would be a gift for a woman from a second-rate family like yours! Look after my son during the day and take care of me at night; maybe I'll give you a child! That would be your ticket to the top." Before Alec could finish, Jennifer seized a glass of water from the table and threw it in his face. "That's my answer! Thank you!" Soaked, Alec's smile froze on his face. "How dare you!" The guards’ expressions changed and they surrounded Jennifer swiftly, their presence intimidating. Donovan was equally taken aback. He tried to calm the situation. "Everyone, this is just a misunderstanding! We came here to talk, not to fight!" "I will show some respect to Officer Sanders today. Let her go!" Despite the public embarrassment, Alec laughed rather than showing anger. Having braced herself for a severe fallout, Jennifer was shocked. She turned around and left the room.-

    The moment the words were uttered the room buzzed with whispers, and all eyes turned towards Jennifer."Can you believe it? The thief is a gorgeous woman! Looks can be so deceiving."Jennifer went pale as she defended herself. "I have no idea what this is—I've never even seen it. How could I have stolen it? If you don't believe me, Officer Sanders can vouch for me—he was with me the entire time!" She turned, asking agitatedly, "Isn't that right, Donovan?"But Donovan had disappeared.Jennifer experienced a chilling sensation from head to toe.She suddenly recalled that Donovan had handled her handbag earlier—could he have set her up?Meanwhile, Bianca was fuming with rage. She marched over with her men and glared at Jennifer. "Ms. York, with witnesses and evidence here, do you still deny it? Everyone saw the crown found in your bag!"At that moment, Alec stepped forward. "Ms. York, I respected you as a rising star in the business world, which is why I hesitantly let you into T

    Alec delivered a sharp slap to Jennifer's face. "Jennifer! You brought this on yourself! Strip her!"Instantly, Bianca's consortium and the Tiger Faction's minions rushed forward like a tidal wave, hoisting Jennifer up with ropes.Her clothing was torn to shreds, exposing her pale skin and striking figure. Fragments of her clothes dropped to the ground, with glimpses of her panties visible beneath.Brandishing a whip, Bianca lashed Jennifer across the face without hesitation.Jennifer screamed in agony, her body contorting in pain as the whip left a gruesome mark on her once flawless face.Alec laughed and urged from the sidelines, "Feeling the pain now? Keep whipping her! Harder!"The whip continued to lash at Jennifer, drawing blood and leaving her battered and bruised.Jennifer, now the picture of a tragic damsel in distress, looked around desperately, pleading, "I've been wronged. Please, someone help me!"But the wealthy spectators, who had fawned over Jennifer just moment

    "Who did you say was beaten to death?" Frederick's gaze turned cold instantly. Terrified, the man stammered, "I-it's Jennifer York, the Vice President of Prospera Corporation! Haven't you heard? She stole Ms. Olsen's crown, and Ms. Olsen hung her up and whipped her to death!" Jasmine's face went pale with shock. "What? Are you saying something happened to Jen?" Frederick stormed off like a whirlwind. Entering the room, he saw Jennifer. She lay in a pool of blood, her clothes torn, barely clinging to life. Jennifer had lost the proud, aloof demeanor she once possessed. "Ms. York!" Frederick’s fury rose even higher. Just then, several medical personnel finally arrived at the scene. They conducted a brief examination before declaring her dead. "The patient has suffered severe blood loss, and her heart has stopped beating. She's gone. We will take her to the crematorium as per Mr. Lambert's orders. With that, they lifted the stretcher and roughly grabbed Jennifer by her hai

    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
