Back in the Imperial Capital, Nathan’s expression turned grim after checking his phone.

"Well, well. This kid moves fast," he sneered.

The influential figures in Aston State had been cured by Frederick.

"Too bad you have no idea what kind of power the Whalens truly wield," Nathan muttered as he got into his limited Rolls-Royce, one of only ten in the world.

Then, he sternly issued a series of orders.

-

Despite the wild night, Frederick still woke up early the next morning.

Jasmine was the epitome of a workaholic. After receiving the permits late last night, she immediately arranged for the project to resume. The construction of the Sleepless City was set to restart.

Frederick had needed to be on site as the boss.

For now, the foundation of Sleepless City had already been laid.

On the construction site, all the vehicles were ready, and the workers were eating breakfast. The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement.

Jasmine, wearing a safety helmet, glanced at the time and fro

    “Aren't you the overworld king of Aston? Can't you solve this with a single phone call?”Jasmine was slightly puzzled. Why was it so hard for Aerowind Enterprise to work on a project?“Let me understand the situation first.”Frederick retrieved his phone, and called the head of the State Department of Commerce who visited him last night."That's pretty much the situation."Frederick described the matter succinctly."Mr. Lester, hold on a minute. I'll have someone check this. They're only a couple of materials distributors. They can’t possibly cause an uproar."The head of the department didn’t hang up. He picked up the landline on his desk, and made a call.Frederick listened to what he said and his tone. He sounded resolute and imposing."Mr. Lester, things are not quite what I expected."After a while, Frederick heard his voice again."I asked someone to check on this. Apparently, all the chambers of commerce in Aston received an order from the Imperial Capital to not sell

    "So noisy!" Frederick snorted before lashing out.In the blink of an eye, dozens of security guards fell to the ground. Nobody was standing in his way."Mr. Lester, why so grumpy?"This was when Frederick heard someone chuckling as they spoke. Danny Campbell, wearing a pair of leather shoes, walked towards him.Frederick turned to look at Danny with narrowed eyes. "Are you the owner of Glory Building Materials?" Danny smiled, and nodded. "I am indeed." "Very well. Let's see if the building materials we ordered really did catch fire. If there wasn't a fire, don't blame me for being unforgiving," Frederick said coldly."Mr. Lester, why the need to see something if you know it to be true? Besides, seeing it won't do you or me any good." Danny exhaled a mouthful of smoke. It looked like he was trying to offer some serious advice."What if I insist?" Frederick asked.Danny stopped smiling, and responded with a threat. "Then all I can say is that you'll regret it." "I'd like to

    Rocky was so excited, his entire body was shaking.He used to be an unrivaled boss, but he ended up having to run for his life in one night. Who knew how much he had to endure over the past two days?Now, he wanted to take back everything he lost.In fact, he wanted even more!Mr. Lester had asked him to not only take down Mirage City, but the entire Aston State.Danny's legs were trembling in fear. After collapsing in a pool of blood, he was tied up and tossed into a car.Frederick personally drove away, with Danny in the car.With people from the Northern Frontier around, he didn’t need to worry about the rest.Frederick stopped the car in the middle of nowhere. He opened the door, and threw Danny out of it. "Was it the Whalens?" "No—yes!"Danny wanted to deny it, but he hastily told the truth after Frederick glared at him."Mr. Lester, I didn't have a choice. Who would dare to not do as the Whalens said?"Frederick nodded. He had a feeling this was the case.Frederick

    Danny didn’t know what the pill Frederick fed him was.He stumbled his way to Kaizer's villa, and rang the doorbell. A few moments later, the heavy door opened, revealing the gilded living room within.“Danny? What are you doing here?”Kaizer frowned a little when he saw Danny. Danny was a nobody to him, and he had merely used the latter like a pawn.“Mr. Steinfield, Frederick wanted me to pass on a message. He said—"Before Danny could finish his sentence, Kaizer wanted to cut him off. The next moment, however, there was an explosion.Bang!Danny's body exploded into pieces.Kaizer's body was stained in red, and pieces of flesh hung from his body. His complexion turned pale, and he had a murderous look in his eyes."Frederick, this means war!"Kaizer clenched his jaws.At the same time, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.Danny had exploded just after he spoke.This meant Frederick had not only found out Kaizer's identity, but also where Kaizer lived. In fact, he even t

    Jasmine's father was furious. "I'll say it again. Get your ass home with me right now! Otherwise, don't ever come back!"Was Jasmine still oblivious about what would happen if she offended the Whalens from the Imperial Capital? Not only her, but the entire family would be affected."I told you! I can't leave now!" Jasmine yelled back, hanging up.Later, she rubbed her tearful eyes and continued to go through the piles of documents on her desk. After some time, there was suddenly a commotion outside the office."Sir, you can't go in…""Get out of my way!"The office door was pushed open by the man, who sounded demanding.Jasmine was surprised to see who it was.“Dad! Why are you here?”She stood up.“If I don't come, the entire family will be ruined in your hands!” her father snorted coldly.“Dad, even if we're going against the Whalens from the Imperial Capital, I don't think we're completely powerless to fight back,” Jasmine uttered through clenched jaws.Although she stil

    "Who do you think you are? Sanction order? What a joke!"Jasmine's father burst into laughter.There was a sanction order issued in Aerowind Enterprise's name on their official website. The content of the sanction order was similar to the one released by Nathan.However, the Whalens were different. They controlled people's livelihoods through their businesses across various sectors. As a result, they were qualified to issue the sanction order.What about Aerowind Enterprise and Frederick? Who even knew about them outside of Aston State? Not everyone in Aston State even knew about them. Who were they to issue a sanction order against the Whalens?It was practically a joke."Do you find it funny?" Frederick looked at Jasmine's father with a puzzled expression, then smiled."Isn't it?" Jasmine's father finally stopped laughing, and looked at his daughter. "This is the arrogant lunatic you're working for! Believe it or not, you lot have now become the laughingstock of the world!"

    Nathan seemed unaffected after he regained his composure.Although he was not sure what kind of relationship Frederick had with the Northern Frontier military, it was not enough to force him to compromise.They were not strong enough.After hanging up the phone, Nathan contemplated for a moment and dialed a number."Run a background check on Frederick Lester. He has a company in Mirage called Aerowind Enterprise."It hadn’t occurred to Nathan until now to investigate Frederick's identity.“Mr. Whalen!”Suddenly, Nathan's secretary barged into his study."Who let you in? Get out!" Nathan yelled. The study was forbidden to outsiders. He had given an order that no one was allowed to set foot in his study without his permission. Had his words fallen on deaf ears?“Mr. Whalen, I have something important to report!” his secretary exclaimed hurriedly.“An important matter? What kind of important matter merits you to break into my study? Tell me! If it doesn't satisfy me, I'll muti

    Outside Jasmine's office at Aerowind Enterprise, Jasmine's father wiped the tears of laughter from the corner of his eyes. The whole thing was incredibly ridiculous to him.He turned to look at Jasmine. "Do you still refuse to come with me?"He believed she should have seen Frederick for what he really was—a madman and a bragging lunatic."I told you, I'm not leaving!"To his surprise, Jasmine shook her head; she seemed fully determined. Her father was in disbelief."Did he cast a spell on you? Why are you so loyal to him?" he barked, furious.Jasmine bit her lip. "I believe in him!" "Do you believe in him? Well, the sanction order has been out for a while now. Has there been any semblance of movement?" he demanded angrily."Take it easy. A bullet takes time to travel," Frederick said casually."It's taking too long. The bullet would have already reached the northwest hemisphere," Jasmine's father retorted."That's right. Based on my calculations, the bullet should have arri

    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
