Semua Bab My Boss’ Secret Is My Undoing!: Bab 561 - Bab 570

“Mr. Hunt!”The two guards’ faces went pale at the sight of Dominic. They stumbled, and nearly fell over in their panic. Dropping the tools they were holding, they fell to their knees.“Mr. Hunt, what brings you here today? Are you here for an inspection? We didn’t receive any notice from above!”Dominic said coldly, “Do you want me to give you an official notice right now? Should I go to the office and sign it for you?”“No, of course not! W-We wouldn’t dare!” the guards stammered. “You’re the highest authority in the state! With you here, why would we need a signed order?”They lowered their heads repeatedly, like dogs begging for scraps.“Release him immediately! We’re taking him with us!” Willa shouted.“Huh? You’re taking Sheldon? But he’s the most wanted outlaw in Aston State, and personally sought after by the state government office! We can’t just let him go!”The guards’ faces went ashen, looking like they had seen a ghost.“Let him go! I've already given the order,”

At this point, the Dragon Brigade, the state government, and the Nine Great Ascension Clans had all assembled. They were ready to trap and eliminate Frederick and Willa.Willa surveyed the area, her face growing paler. She had never felt such overwhelming fear and pressure before. Just the hundreds of Savant Grandmasters nearby was enough to crush her a hundred times over! And that didn’t even account for the enemy forces closing in from all sides!“Willa,” Frederick said, suddenly grasping her hand tightly, “do you trust me?”“What?” Willa was still in shock.“Close your eyes.”Frederick uttered each word slowly, and his gaunt face was filled with a cold, menacing intensity.Willa shivered, realizing what he was about to do. She instinctively gripped his wrist, her voice trembling with worry. “Will you die?”Frederick shook his head. “I don’t know.”“Don’t die! Promise me you won’t die!”Tears began to flow uncontrollably from Willa’s eyes. Frederick, seeing her cry for t

Dominic shook with rage. “It was your people who broke into my home and kidnapped my entire family! Who else could it be? Don’t try to shift the blame!”Frederick shrugged. “You’re supposed to be the state governor. With all the schemes and plots you usually think up, can't you see that this is a trap set by someone else? Why would I want to kill your family? What’s my motive? If I wanted to control you, I’d just kidnap your family.”He then added carefully, “If I wanted to deal with you, I could have killed you already! Why go the long way around?”Dominic was momentarily stunned. Frederick’s reasoning seemed to make some sense.Frederick took Willa’s hand. “Enough. It’s pointless to reason with someone who’s already doomed. Take care of yourself, and don’t let yourself be fooled!”With that, Frederick and Willa started running. Meanwhile, Chester and the Dragon Brigade pursued them relentlessly.Though both Frederick and Willa were Savant Grandmasters, Willa’s lower level force

Queenie’s eyes sparkled the moment she heard the amount Frederick mentioned. She bent down to pick up the card, but stopped halfway.She still had lingering fears about the mission Frederick had just given her.She said nervously, “But… The Sheldon case is huge, and involves Mr. Hunt and his entire family. It’s too big for me to handle alone.”Frederick’s face remained impassive. “Do as I say, and I’ll take care of everything. Phoenix will provide you with protection. Once the job is done, another hundred million will be added to that card.”At the mention of more money, Queenie’s demeanor instantly brightened. She picked up the card eagerly. “Don’t worry, Mr. Lester. I’ll make sure to find out where Sheldon is hiding! I'm heading back to the Nine Great Ascension Clans now!”She turned to leave, her hips swaying as she approached the door.Unexpectedly, Frederick suddenly grabbed her by the waist. “Did I say you could leave?”“Did you even think about the consequences of dressin

Willa was stunned.Before she could say anything, Frederick had already unfastened his belt.It was then that she realized her mistake and blurted out, “I... I didn’t mean to!”“Whether you meant it or not, you’ve triggered something in me!” Without saying anything further, Frederick transformed into a predatory force once again. To him, Willa now looked like a helpless little lamb!-When Willa woke up, it was already the following day. Frederick had just realized he hadn’t gone home all night. Jennifer must be worried sick!“Willa, I need to head back,” Frederick said, glancing around.To his surprise, Willa was nowhere to be found. All that remained was a note on the pillow.[I’m sorry about last night. I hope it won’t affect your relationship with Ms. York. I had something to take care of and left. Bye!]Frederick’s emotions were mixed. “She calls me a jerk, but she’s the one who just leaves without a word! And she didn’t even tell me where she’s going!”Well, at le
