Chapter 3

Author: Seven Nights of Frost
In the Miller mansion, Priscilla's mother, Marianne Sacher, flipped through the divorce papers with a wide smile on her face. Her smile was so wide that the edges of her eyes wrinkled up.

"What great news! Pris has finally got a divorce from her good-for-nothing husband! I'll look into your marriage with Pris in a few days, Wade. Does your promise of a jewelry shop as a wedding gift still stand?"

Wade hurriedly patted his chest and assured Marianne, "Rest assured, Mrs. Miller. The day I marry Pris will be the day you become the owner of a jewelry shop."

Marianne was delighted to hear Wade's guarantee. Her daughter, who was a divorcee, in exchange for a jewelry shop. What a bargain!

All of a sudden, she caught sight of a clause on the divorce papers. Priscilla had just agreed to pay Frederick an alimony of ten million dollars. Marianne's expression darkened in disgust.

"That son of a bitch got an alimony of ten million dollars?"

Wade touched the bank card in his pocket guiltily and proceeded to fabricate lies.

"Yes, Mrs. Miller. He even said that ten million dollars is too small of an amount. He demanded a hundred million from Pris! It wasn't until I gave him two hard slaps that he agreed to the divorce for ten million dollars."

Marianne was so gripped by anger that she trembled all over. She seemed so close to collapsing from a raging fit.

It wasn't until a long while later that she finally reined in her temper. "My daughter wasted a huge part of her youth on that scumbag. I'm doing him a tremendous favor by not asking him for reimbursement.

"How dare he take my daughter's money? I'll go get it back from him right now!"

Wade's expression changed instantly. If Marianne were to go asking Frederick for the money, they would find out that he'd pocketed the ten million dollars himself.

"Mrs. Miller, I know that asshole well. If you go asking for the money, he won't return it. He will even shamelessly tell you that he never took the money."

Blinded by fury, Marianne shouted, "Hah! If he has the guts to refuse to return the money, I'll get my son to break his goddamn legs! Mitchell! Come on, let's go get our money back!"

A tall and built man made his way down the stairs. It was Priscilla's brother, Mitchell Miller. He'd joined a local thug gang at a very young age, and he was infamous for being a huge bully who only bowed down to people more powerful than him.

Not only did Marianne not stop him from doing so, she seemed to think that what Mitchell was doing was the right thing to do.

Loosening up his muscles, Mitchell said, "I'll be sure to teach him well for daring to accept money from the Miller family."

Seeing the state of rage that Marianne and Mitchell were in, Wade came up with a devious plan in his head.

When Marianne was out of hearing range, he secretly told Mitchell, "Hey, Mitch, don't mess him up too badly, okay? It's not worth being detained for an asshole like him.

"Here, have this. Pretend to stab him with this. He'll be so scared that he'll return the money in a flash."

Wade produced a dagger and proceeded to stab himself with it several times. Every time the dagger came in contact with something solid, the blade would retract into the hilt, so it was of no harm to anyone.

Mitchell, who wasn't a bright person to begin with, took the dagger from Wade and began laughing thoughtlessly. "Haha! You're a smart one, Wade!"

Mitchell liked the idea of having Wade as his brother-in-law because Wade had promised him a sports car when he married Priscilla.

A divorced sister for a new sports car. Mitchell wished that Priscilla would change up her men more often.

Seeing how excited Mitchell looked, Wade smiled softly. The dimwit didn't even notice that he'd secretly locked the safety pin.

The dagger was now no different from any other dagger. As long as Mitchell killed Frederick, nobody would ever find out that he'd pocketed the ten million dollars. There was no proof of it anyway.

As for whether Mitchell would be executed for it, Wade couldn't care less. He was only interested in having his way with Priscilla.

"Oh, Frederick, you've just gotten a divorce this morning, and tonight, you're going to kiss your life goodbye. You've only got yourself to blame for having such a beautiful wife, and it's just your bad luck that I've got my eyes on her," Wade thought.

    Mary's case was the most severe, while Ivan's symptoms were the mildest, and Frederick could roughly deduce the sequence of transmissions among them. It was clear that Mary infected Nigel, who then passed it to Kimberly, then finally passed it to Ivan. Frederick also saw that Ivan was actually a decent person who unfortunately ended up being betrayed and infected. However, Nigel was primarily worried that Ivan might start trusting Frederick, as he wanted Ivan to believe in his capabilities to carry out his plan.Originally, he intended for Mary to insult Frederick for being poor and unskilled, but she ended up attacking him for having an unpleasant odor, which backfired when Frederick exposed her for contracting syphilis. Now, Nigel had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, he then said to Frederick, "Hehe, Frederick. We all know Ivy is a director, what exactly do you do to be worthy of her?"Nigel assumed that Frederick was just a low-level salesperson, something

    Hearing Frederick's words, Kimberly jumped with joy and stopped crying. While wiping her tears, she pointed at Mary, laughing and said, "You're covered in syphilis, yet you're making fun of me.""Slut, I wonder how many people you've slept with!" After being pointed and insulted, Mary was furious and she was ready to fight Kimberly. "You bitch! I am going to teach you a lesson!" At this moment, Nigel felt terrible. If Mary was diseased, he'd be the first victim. He grabbed Mary and shouted, "Bitch, let me teach you a lesson first. Now I know why you always wanted the lights off! I thought you were shy, but you just didn't want me to find out."In a fit of anger, Nigel slapped Mary hard across the face. Just as Mary was about to explain, she was interrupted by another slap. Holding her face, she yelled angrily, "Nigel, how dare you hit me?! Do you want me to expose all your little schemes and tricks?"Nigel froze in horror; if Mary exposed him, it would have been disastrous.

    Kimberly heard her laughter, and body odor had always been a sensitive issue for her; a wound she'd tried to cover up over the years. For Frederick to bring it up in front of everyone felt like rubbing salt into an open wound. Yet what hurt even more was Mary's laughter; as a fellow woman, it felt like salt to the wound, then roasting it. Kimberly was furious, pointed at Mary and said, "What are you laughing at? Do you want me to come over there and shut you up?"Mary felt wronged, she had only let out a reflexive laugh, but now Kimberly's anger was directed at her. "Did I laugh at you? What proof do you have that I laughed at you?""You're the one with body odor, yet you're taking it out on others. You're such an unreasonable woman!"Kimberly grew even angrier after hearing Mary's retort. "You're the one with body odor, your whole family has it!" "Look at what you're wearing, it's like you just threw on two pillowcases. You're a shameless woman, just trying to show off t

    When everyone heard Ivy's words, they laughed even more. Her words effectively confirmed that Frederick did indeed have an unpleasant odor. It wasn't entirely her fault as Kimberly's words had been a bit of a trap. "Haha, if you smell, just take a shower and don't embarrass yourself here.""With all that cheap stuff on, no wonder he has a smell."Hearing this, Frederick simply gave a slight smile and then asked Mary and Kimberly, "Are two really that fragrant?"Mary and Kimberly lifted their heads proudly after hearing Frederick's words. "Why don't you ask everyone here, ask them if we smell good or not?""Exactly, go ahead and ask."Both of them considered themselves beautiful, and of course, they would smell pleasant. The men around them quickly chimed in, especially those eager to admire Mary, who was dressed in a way that gave them a bit of eye candy. "Of course, they smell good. How could these two beautiful ladies not smell good?""Hehe, Frederick with his cheap, th

    In a hidden corner, Nigel said to Mary, "Damn it, that bumpkin Frederick keeps stealing my spotlight. I am worried that our plan won't go well later.""You should help me humiliate him properly, and Ivan's girlfriend will back you up."Mary pursed her lips and said to Nigel, "Every time something comes up, you just ask me to handle it. My bag hasn't been bought yet, and you've lost 300 thousand dollars"Although Nigel was annoyed by Mary hitting a sore spot, he kept his tone calm and replied, "Help me humiliate Frederick and talk him down in front of Ivan. After that, leave the rest to me. Once it's done, I'll get you more than one bag, I could get you ten bags and it wouldn't be a problem. I don't care about that small amount of money. You saw that Porsche just now, right? I wouldn't mind burning it if I had to." Hearing this, Mary was delighted and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you, babe." She hadn't realized that Nigel was so wealthy and even had a Porsche. Up until th

    Knowing Martin as someone who knew a lot about wood, everyone immediately looked as though they were ready for a good show. They were convinced that the Saint George statue couldn’t possibly be made of anything valuable.Martin let out a strange exclamation. "What the hell!"Kimberly, thinking that Martin was angry, quickly said, "Mr. Lawson, tell us what’s so disastrous about this wood. Are you saying it’s just a piece of junk?"Contrary to expectations, Martin replied angrily, "I’m saying that whoever preserved this Saint George statue was a jerk. This is genuine sandalwood, and yet it’s completely neglected, covered in dust."Most of the group had no idea what sandalwood was worth, but judging by the name alone, it sounded impressive.Kimberly asked curiously, "Mr. Lawson, are you saying this is really antique wood?"Martin examined the statue carefully, scrutinizing every detail. "Judging by the texture, this carving must have been made at least 150 years ago."Everyone was
