"Um..."

Frederick was dumbfounded and somewhat embarrassed.

"Hurry up! Didn't you hear me? Otherwise, I'll fire you immediately!" Jennifer hissed in a low voice.

She deliberately approached Frederick, her curvy figure and fair skin flashing in a tempting manner before him.

Frederick gritted his teeth and reached out, boldly squeezing a sensitive part of her body tightly!

Jennifer's expression changed instantly. She trembled slightly and gave him a cold glare.

Yes, she had commanded him to touch her... But how dare he touch her so audaciously, especially in the most sensitive place!

Struggling not to cry out, she maintained a composed facade and said, "See? We genuinely love each other. Dad, Uncle, just give up!"

"Nonsense! Jennifer! I don't care about your relationship with this lowly man. You must marry the Tiger Faction's heir!" Zeke erupted in anger, striding forward to slap Jennifer across the face.

Jennifer staggered back three steps, her cheek reddening instantly.

"This is your lesson from me! Know your place!" Zeke sneered. "Don't think just because you found some lowlife from outside that you can disgust me and our family. Trash will always be trash!"

Unexpectedly, a forceful slap sent Zeke flying several meters in the next moment. He crashed into a marble pillar and started bleeding profusely.

"Lord Zeke!" The York family members rushed forward in shock.

Pulling back his hand, Frederick turned to Jennifer and asked, "Ms. York, are you okay?"

Jennifer was stunned. "How... how could you have such strength?"

Frederick smiled. "I served in the military for a few years. When I saw you being attacked, I didn't think much. I just retaliated."

"Seize this beggar and feed him to the dogs!" Zacharias roared furiously.

In a flash, several burly men stormed in, all of them York family enforcers. Seeing this, Jennifer hurriedly shielded Frederick.

"Dad, stop being unreasonable! Uncle struck me first! Frederick was only protecting me!"

Seeing Jennifer defend him so fervently, Frederick was touched and stepped forward leisurely.

"It's alright, Ms. York. Dealing with these riffraffs is a piece of cake for me."

"Don't be reckless!" Jennifer shot back.

But before she could finish, Frederick swiftly moved. He incapacitated all the burly men with precise strikes, leaving them writhing in pain on the ground.

They were too weak!

Compared to his adversaries in the Northern Frontier, these people were no match for him!

Jennifer's eyes widened in disbelief.

Had she misjudged the situation?

"You've gone too far! Quickly, call for reinforcements!" Zeke roared as he clutched his head and staggered to his feet.

"Enough! Stop this madness!" A voice commanded.

At that moment, an elderly man in traditional attire and a bent back stepped forward.

The York family members instantly fell silent.

"Greetings, my lord!"

Frederick also recognized him.

It was Xavier York, the chairman of Prospera Corporation and the true power behind the scenes.

Zeke quickly complained, "Father! Jennifer conspired with this outsider and injured our family!"

"No need for explanations. Jen, I will overlook all of your past misdeeds... As long as you agree to marry the heir of the Tiger Faction," Xavier responded calmly.

"The Tiger Faction's heir merely wants you. Whether you're still a virgin doesn't matter much," he continued dismissively.

Jennifer was shocked by her family's words.

How could they say such a thing?

They were her family!

"Grandfather, am I just a tool for the family's profit in your eyes?"

"Remember, everything you have is from our family! I can strip you of your position as deputy CEO anytime I want!"

Xavier's demeanor made Jennifer turn pale.

She knew that losing her position at Prospera Corporation would mean losing her foothold in Mirage City, leaving her vulnerable to the York family's whims!

Seeing her silence, Xavier coldly glanced at Frederick.

"As for you, take two hundred thousand and leave Jennifer immediately! A nobody like you wouldn't be able to withstand the wrath of our family and the Tiger Faction."

He didn't even spare Frederick another glance.

After all, in a few days, the Tiger Faction's heir would personally come to propose to Jennifer. The Tiger Faction had a deep influence all over Mirage City, and they were much stronger than the York family.

Looking at the bigger picture, Frederick was just trash and worth nothing! How dare he attempt to stand in the way of Jennifer's marriage to the Tiger Faction's heir?

In Xavier's eyes, Frederick was merely a trivial obstacle that was easily crushed!

However, Frederick was unfazed by the threat. He stared intently at Xavier and remarked, "Sir, do you know your time is running out?"

    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
