My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 928
Jennifer opened the door, and stepped inside the villa.Zacharias and Zeke, who were sitting on the couch in the living room, looked up when they heard the door being opened.Jennifer was surprised by how much their appearances had changed.Zacharias and Zeke had lived in the villa for less than two months, but they seemed to have aged more than a decade. Their hair turned gray, and they had a lot more wrinkles than they did before."Jennifer, you finally came!" Zacharias stood up with an excited expression on his face.“What are you doing here? Zac, she's a heartless person. Even if she's here, she'll only make our father's condition worse!" Zeke snorted angrily.Jennifer glanced at him, and chose to ignore him."Dad, how did you end up like this?"Jennifer looked at Zacharias with a complicated look on her face."It's all thanks to you!" Zeke sneered."It's my own fault for over-thinking. Your grandfather hasn't been doing very well these past few days. That has cleared up

Soon, the medical team arrived at the villa. The medical team belonged to Serenova Medical.They soon completed the full body check-up on Xavier.The doctor nodded to Jennifer after the results were out. She followed the doctor downstairs."He does indeed have stage four lung cancer. In fact, it is likely that systemic organ failures will occur," the doctor said softly.Jennifer's heart clenched when she heard this."Is there any hope for treatment?" she asked.The doctor frowned, and thought for a moment."It won't be easy. Your only hope now is to go to Meyo Clinic. They recently announced they have developed a targeted treatment for lung cancer, and they're recruiting volunteers from around the world to participate in the clinical trial. Currently, a single spot costs up to hundreds of millions. After all, lung cancer patients don't have the luxury of time to wait for the technology to be mature and available on the market."Since this was a clinical trial, they couldn’t pos

Jennifer frowned.At this point, if she continued to refuse, she would appear heartless. However, she had an uneasy feeling about this. She still could not trust Zacharias and Zeke."Grandpa, let's talk about this after I contact Meyo Clinic and get their approval to participate in the clinic trial, alright?"Jennifer forced a smile upon her face.Xavier grimaced, and nodded."Anyway, if I can't have my loved ones with me, I'd rather not receive treatment. I don't want to die alone," he said.Jennifer sighed softly before leaving the villa."Zeke, are you sure this medicine can get past medical tests?" Zacharias asked Zeke after Jennifer had left."Zac, I've told you several times now. This isn't fake. This medicine really can make sure Dad gets lung cancer!" Zeke explained impatiently."W-What about the antidote? Will it work?" Zacharias asked with a frown. He sounded concerned.While speaking, he turned around to look nervously at Xavier.He sighed in relief after realiz

Jennifer retrieved her phone, and picked up the call."Where are you? I went to the office to look for you. An employee said you haven't been to work for a few days now. Don't forget that you still have to take over Anakin Pharmaceuticals in the Imperial Capital. What's the matter? Is Anakin Pharmaceuticals not good enough for you, Ms. York?" Frederick teased.Jennifer rolled her eyes.Anakin Pharmaceuticals was one of Drakonia's leading drug companies. Its market value was higher than Prospera Corporation."I've been busy with things at home these days."She sounded a little tired."Things at home? Oh, right. You said your grandfather was sick the other day. How is he? Is it serious?" Only then did Frederick recall this."He has stage four lung cancer. The doctor said he has less than three months," Jennifer said in a hushed voice.Frederick was stunned for a moment. He then frowned."Where is he getting treatment now?" he asked."Meyo Clinic developed a targeted treatment f

Jennifer was stunned when she read the message. She clutched the phone so hard that her knuckles turned pale."What did you do?" Zacharias asked with a frown when he saw Zeke's movements next to him.“Nothing. I just sent a text message to my adorable niece," Zeke said with a chuckle."What did you send her?" Zacharias's eyes widened with surprise."I only told her we would give her a present after we arrive." Zeke shrugged nonchalantly."We're still in the country!" Zacharias snarled through clenched jaws after taking a deep breath."The plane's already taken off. Do you think she can make the plane turn around?"Zeke pointed out the window. From where they sat, they were able to see the plane's wings through the window. At this moment, the airplane's wings were already pointing diagonally to the sky, and the nose of the plane was cocked upwards.“Let's hope there are no surprises.” Zacharias glared at Zeke, his tone full of concern.“You're just scared out of your wits by
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 933
Zacharias forced a smile upon his face.“Yes, I didn't expect to be so unlucky as to encounter a plane malfunction. Jennifer, you should quickly book us on the next flight. Your grandfather's health requires urgent attention."In an attempt to muddle through, he chose to play dumb.“Grandpa's illness is not urgent—" Jennifer said, but she was immediately cut off by Zeke."Not urgent? How could you say that? He's your grandfather! There clearly is a cure for him. Are you going to make him give up on the opportunity to be cured?" Zeke chided."There was a cure, but it no longer works because of you," Jennifer said through clenched jaws.If it really was as Frederick had mentioned, she believed that Xavier was kept in the dark.Xavier wasn’t the type of person who would willingly gamble with his life for freedom and power. There was no way he would agree to such a plan.After years of fighting explicitly and implicitly, Jennifer had gotten to know Xavier very well."What did you
My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing! Chapter 934
"Jennifer, what's going on? A doctor from Meyo Clinic said that didn't happen at all!"Xavier's expression turned gloomy, and his tone became stern.He had already given up hope that he would live past three months. In the end, Jennifer gave him hope that Meyo Clinic could provide a cure.This fueled his desire to live."Jennifer, are you still holding a grudge against your grandfather? Is that why you won't send him to Meyo Clinic for treatment? Is that why you came up with an excuse?" Zeke said. He was still fanning the fire.Jennifer had an awful expression on her face. For a while, she didn’t know how to respond to Xavier's questioning."The truth is, Jennifer considered the fact that you'd be unfamiliar with a foreign country. She wanted to have Meyo Clinic's team come here to treat you. However, this hasn't been finalized yet. That's why she has yet to tell you about it. She didn't want to disappoint you if it failed to work out in the end."Frederick smiled, and spoke u

“Mr. Lester, please don't apologize. I should be thanking you. If it wasn't for you, Meyo Clinic wouldn't be what it is now. If I could, I'd like to thank you in person someday."Larry sounded very grateful on the phone."Why don't we make that happen in the next few days?"Frederick smiled a little."If it's not too much to ask, I was hoping you could make a trip to Drakonia with a medical team. There's an old man here with stage four lung cancer who could really use your help," he added."That's not hard. Although we're about to launch a clinical trial here, my assistant is fully capable of leading the team to proceed with it. Wouldn't you say this is a redundant effort?"Larry felt confused.Frederick taught him what he knew. Although he recently developed the targeted treatment for lung cancer, he still believed Frederick was far more capable than him despite his significant improvement over the years.He believed that if he was able to come up with a cure, Frederick certai

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
