"If I hadn't held on and waited until the woman lowered her guard, I wouldn't have been able to see you again," Seiryu said with a wry smile. "I fought so hard to stay alive just to see you one last time."Upon hearing that, Frederick’s tears began to fall. It was the first time he had cried in years."Stay with me! Don’t die! I’ll find a way to save you! Until then, you can't die!" Frederick commanded desperately.Seiryu chuckled weakly. "You still have that same heroic spirit as back in the day, my lord. Honestly, being with you all these years, I've lived my life to the fullest. It’s more than enough."With that, his eyelids began to close slowly. "My lord, promise me, you won't seek revenge... I suspect that Organization V is part of a large-scale conspiracy, aiming to destroy us all. If you stay out of it, there might still be a future for the Northern Frontier. Otherwise, it’ll bring you absolute misfortune. Let's be brothers in the next life.""No! Wake up!" Frederick could

Liana was being tied up, and she was wearing only a thin silk nightgown. The rope left marks on her pale thighs, and her hair was disheveled. With her bloodshot eyes, she no longer resembled the proud princess she usually was.Frederick murmured to himself, "No one would have expected that the Northern Frontier's spoiled princess is now a hostage. She had it rough today."Listening to Liana, it seemed like the group attacking her was specifically targeting her and had some significant backing. Frederick decided to wait and observe the situation before acting.Just then, a few bearded middle-aged men stood before her, smirking as one of them grabbed her chin.“You're still putting on airs now, huh? Do you think you're still in the Northern Frontier, where the Yarboroughs are in command?""We're here to take you out under your uncles' orders. Then, we’ll blame your death on Centropolis's most notorious outlaw, Sheldon York!""Losing an heiress wouldn’t be a big deal to the Yarbor

"Those men just now were sent by my uncles," Liana explained with a trembling voice. It was surprising to see this egotistical woman so scared.Frederick asked, "So, what's the current situation with the Yarboroughs?""My father is cornered by my uncles. Many of the family's elders have switched sides, and he’s in a dangerous position now. That's why they dared to invade my place and even planned to bury me alive. After the heir is out of the picture, they could control the Yarboroughs as they wish."Frederick remained silent.Liana continued while sobbing, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you all this. You have nothing to do with this mess. I'm grateful that you’re here to save me. But now... I fear I'm no longer worthy of you. I’m nothing without my status as the heir to the Yarboroughs."Frederick stepped away, and made a phone call. "It's Frederick. I heard there's some trouble with the Yarboroughs. Can you handle it for me? Yes, right now."Liana was taken aback. "No way!

Melanie nodded slightly, with a hint of playfulness. "Yes, Master!""How was the investigation?"Back then, to ensure Melanie’s freedom during the investigation of the truth, Frederick had given her the Dark Monarch Token. With that, she could even command a Dark Monarch Massacre to intimidate local bigshots."I spent four months in Aston, the Northern Frontier, other provinces, and the Imperial Capital, secretly investigating this matter.” Melanie turned serious. “It turns out, Cyrus's death was not an accident. The so-called ghost marriage of Selene with a deceased noble from an Imperial Capital family was just a cover!"Frederick was stunned. "You mean there was someone behind this?""Yes!" Melanie nodded.Frederick pondered for a while—it made sense. A bigwig from the Imperial Capital went to such lengths to marry off his deceased son, specifically needing a woman born in a moment filled with dark energy. Selene was one in a million, with a rare Dark Soul. But it was ridicu

Nella sent a cheeky tongue-out emoji. [I genuinely mean it!]Frederick chuckled, and replied, [You being appointed as the manager of the livestreaming department was something I personally pushed for. Don't let me down! Show us some convincing results!][Mr. Lester, I promise I won't let you down!] Nella replied, adding three exclamation marks.Frederick laughed out loud."Fred, what's making you so happy?" Selene teased as she took a peak at Frederick’s phone. "Wow! Are you texting with another woman? I'm telling Jennifer! Let's see how she handles you!""Don't be ridiculous! That's just one of my managers from work," Frederick hurriedly denied it. Jennifer was already furious at him; the last thing he needed was another misunderstanding."Alright, I'm just joking. No need to get so worked up!" Selene grinned mischievously.Frederick pretended to glare at her. "Now you're teasing me, huh?"As the siblings joked around, a group of drunken men staggered into the carriage. Th
