Sylvia stood behind with an embarrassed look on her face. It was evident that Marissa and Lucy had forced their way into the house.Frederick's expression darkened. He had encountered shameless people before, but this level of audacity was the first he had seen! If he claimed to be on good terms with Jennifer, this pair would undoubtedly fawn over him, hoping to benefit from their connection.Frederick chose his words carefully and replied, "I hate to disappoint you, but Jennifer is my superior. She visited me yesterday solely for work-related matters and left after discussing them."Marissa and Lucy looked stunned. "What? She's your boss? Figures! How could a woman of her stature fall for a loser like you? We celebrated too early! Ugh! You're just full of bad luck, I swear!" They grumbled as they left, taking their gifts with them.Just then, Frederick's phone buzzed with a message from Seiryu. [Lord Hades, I've transferred five billion to your account. I took the libert

Ignoring the surrounding chatter, Frederick continued, "Yes, it's about the health product produced by Prospera Corporation. It's a tea called 'Harmony', and it meets national quality inspection standards. If you combine it with modern traditional medicine, long-term consumption can effectively prevent many mental illnesses."I'll give you five minutes to secure two million in sales for me."-At the same time, Matthew, the mayor of Mirage City, was in the administrative office.He gripped his phone with excitement, and his voice trembled as he said, "It's Lord Hades! It's actually Lord Hades! He hasn't forgotten me!"Years ago, Matthew was merely a personal cook for Frederick in the military camp. One day, Frederick praised his cooking skills, leading to an immediate promotion for him!Several years later, he was directly appointed as the mayor of Mirage City, rising through the ranks at a staggering speed.Frederick might have forgotten this favor, but Matthew held it close to

Cody's smile froze instantly. He felt as if he had been slapped hard across the face, and a burning sensation overwhelmed him!The entire office fell into an eerie silence!Mary and John were ecstatic. "Fred, that was amazing!"Frederick shrugged. As always, Matthew was clever. When he ordered two million, he immediately increased the amount tenfold just to please Frederick.Frederick approached Cody, who was pale as a sheet, and said, "Mr. Scott, I've kept my end of the bargain. Shouldn't you do the same?"Cody sneered and retorted, "You said two million over the phone, but the mayor's office ordered twenty million! The numbers don't add up!"John was indignant. "Mr. Scott, what's the meaning of this? Are you trying to back out?"Cody coldly snorted. "I suspect it's all a coincidence. Frederick is just an inexperienced intern in the corporate world. He must have heard rumors about the mayor's office planning to order our group's product, so he deliberately bet against me!"So, beca

"Jaz, what nonsense are you spouting?"Jennifer rolled her eyes and said coldly, "He's merely a shield I'm using to fend off marriage proposals. I feel nothing for him.""Really? Because every time I mention him, your demeanor changes," Jasmine teased with a playful smile. "This isn't the icy Jennifer I remember!"Jennifer shot her a cold glare.Jasmine quickly stuck out her tongue. "Jen, I'm just kidding!"Observing Jennifer's reaction, Jasmine closed her laptop and twirled the pen in her hand."When you were there, what was he up to?""He got into a fight with his superior. He might have been fired on the spot if I hadn't intervened in time.""Hmph! He's rash and impulsive. He also lacks foresight," Jennifer sneered at Frederick's actions.But Jasmine's eyes gleamed with mischief. "Yet, I can't help but think there's a certain charm to him..."Jennifer pinched Jasmine's delicate nose. "Stop that! You're a lady of the Smith family. Didn't you run away from your own engagem

"Frederick, be honest with me. Did you really do all of this?" Jennifer furrowed her brows and questioned, "I know you were unhappy with Mr. Graham this morning, but resorting to such aggressive methods isn't the solution."Frederick was stunned. After standing up for Jennifer, he found himself misunderstood, even choosing to side against him!His heart sank, and he sarcastically replied, "So, you don't even believe me? Fine. If you think it was me, then it was me!" No matter how he explained, it seemed like no one would listen.Jennifer's heart skipped a beat. "I didn't say it was definitely you. I'm just asking," she clarified."How dare you speak to Ms. York like that! Who do you think you are? Ms. York, you must get rid of this troublemaker!" Several of Zeke's lackeys immediately chimed in.Hugh also had a contemptuous expression. "Ms. York, you owe me an explanation. I can't be falsely accused like this," he said as he exchanged a knowing glance with Ivan.Jennifer's c

The moment Frederick said those words, the crowd immediately began chattering amongst themselves! The stall owner looked taken aback, a hint of guilt flickering in his eyes. He glared menacingly at Frederick and said, "Who do you think you are? If you can't afford it, get lost! Spreading rumors might cost you your tongue!"Frederick responded calmly, "I merely made a suggestion. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."The bald man eyed Frederick. After a moment, a hint of recognition flashed in his eyes, and he paused in his actions."Young man, are you saying this premium raw stone is fake? Is there a real possibility that the stone in the corner has a blood ruby inside it?"Frederick glanced again at the stone in the corner and confidently said, "It's not just a possibility. I guarantee it has one."He had seen all sorts of appraisals and mystic arts during his time in the vast regions of the North. Stone gambling was child's play to him.The crowd erupted in mocking

Ordinary blood rubies usually came in shades of light red to a deeper hue. However, the Majestic Blood Ruby would reflect a golden hue when exposed to sunlight. The blood ruby before them shimmered entirely in gold, dazzling the eyes of all present!In an instant, the entire venue descended into madness! In nearly a decade, the Majestic Blood Ruby had only appeared twice. The first time, a foreign dignitary had offered it as a tribute to Drakonia's emperor. The second time, it was auctioned off at a prestigious international auction for an astonishing thirty billion!Everyone's faces were filled with shock, disbelief, and excitement. It was as if they were witnessing a miraculous event unfold.Inside the Rolls-Royce, Jasmine smiled enchantingly. "I didn't expect Frederick to be so interesting."It seemed Jennifer was hiding something from her. This man was far from simple. Intrigued by Frederick, she softly instructed, "Stephen, let's leave. Once we're home, look into Frede

Gavin explained, "Hugh is the Tiger Faction's heir. They've risen as a dominant force in Mirage City in recent years and are involved in both legal and illegal businesses. Even I am wary of them.""I don't care about that. I'm asking, are you sure they're here to book a room?" Frederick's expression remained neutral, but his eyes were razor-sharp as he spoke.Gavin was visibly startled, looking like he had seen a ghost. He stammered, "T-this hotel is called the Four Seasons Hotel, and the Tiger Faction owns it. It's the largest love hotel in Mirage City. Rumor has it that Hugh brings women here every day!"Frederick observed the two figures. Wasn't Jennifer supposed to be discussing a multi-billion deal with Hugh? How did she end up in his hotel room?Oh, Jennifer...!Frederick had once thought she had some charm, even though she had a bad temper. He thought she had principles. Now, it seemed like she was willing to do anything for money, even selling herself. Her previous

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
