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
The scene was total chaos, with bodies scattered everywhere. "Did you really just kill hundreds of people?" Jasmine's disbelief was palpable. She struggled to wrap her head around the situation. Could one man slaughter so many without blinking his eyes? Was this who he truly was? Frederick handed Jennifer over to Jasmine and spoke urgently, "Ms. Smith, please help me get Ms. York to a nearby hospital. She's too weak, and she needs medical attention. I need to confront Bianca and Alec." He had just learned that Bianca and Alec were celebrating at the Diorama Hotel. Jasmine frowned as she cautioned him. "Frederick, don't do anything rash! Alec's Tiger Faction has deep roots in Mirage; they're not to be underestimated! And Bianca has the support of the overseas Drakonian consortium! If you kill her, it will surely lead to massive retaliation from her backers." "I don't give a damn." Frederick didn't look back as he headed straight for the door. Jasmine was deeply concerne
"Are you referring to Mr. Lambert from the Tiger Faction and Ms. Olson from the conglomerate?" the receptionist asked. She continued with a touch of envy, "They've reserved the entire hotel tonight and are staying at the Royal Suite, enjoying some fine wine and playing card games." Frederick responded with a faint smile and thanked the receptionist. When he entered the elevator, he noticed that the corridor was filled with towering bodyguards from the Tiger Faction. Ignoring them entirely, Frederick made his way directly to the Royal Suite. "Hey! Where do you think you're going? You can't go in there!" Several muscular men immediately blocked his path, but Frederick dismembered them in a second. Blood and body parts went flying. "He's an assassin!" one shouted, and all their expressions shifted in alarm. "You're too noisy!" Frederick remained unperturbed and continued advancing towards the fierce guards of the Tiger Faction. In less than a minute, the corridor had turn
