Master of Life and Death のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 261 - チャプター 270

Frederick said to Gemma, "Spend the night with me, and I'll give you 100 thousand dollars.""Never!" Gemma retorted, her face scarlet.In her eyes, Frederick was basically treating her like a prostitute."What? Is it too little for you?" Frederick chuckled. "How about 100 grand an hour? That should satisfy you, right? I'll have you know that I usually don't even pay the celebrities I sleep with—""Get lost!" Gemma fumed before Frederick even finished his sentence."Hah!" Frederick's expression darkened at once. "You should be honored that you managed to catch my eye! You'd better appreciate it."Just then, Lydia stepped forward and said, "Why are you pretending to be so chaste, Gemma? What's so bad about spending the night with Mr. Campbell? Isn't it a woman's purpose in life to serve men?""Lydia, what the hell are you talking about?" Gemma shot back. "If you're so eager to serve him, you can go right ahead and do it.""I wish I could. It's too bad Mr. Campbell doesn't want me

This couldn't be real!Cassian replied, "I'm just a doctor—a complete nobody. I wouldn't dare to take a drink from you, Mr. Campbell. What if… you poison me?""You sure know how to kid around," Frederick remarked with a sneer. "I'm a law-abiding citizen.""A law-abiding citizen? Hah!"Pointing at Chester, Cassian questioned, "Is this your way of so-called abiding by the law?"Frederick had no words.Wagging her finger at Cassian, Lydia snapped, "How dare you take that tone with Mr. Campbell? If you keep this up, I won't go easy on you!"Ignoring her, Cassian smirked at Frederick and asked, "Is she your girlfriend?""That's right."Frederick put his arm around Lydia's waist before adding, "She's the new girlfriend I just got for myself."Hearing this, Lydia went giddy with joy.With a wide grin, Cassian said, "Congratulations, Mr. Campbell. You picked yourself up a piece of trash that was tossed once… no, twice, already."Everyone burst into laughter as the smile on Frederic

Cassian was abruptly radiating an imposing air that made Lydia feel like she had a hard time breathing. She was rooted to the spot."My friend isn't someone you can beat up just because you feel like it, Frederick," Cassian declared domineeringly. "Don't even think about leaving this room until you hand over a million dollars to cover his medical expenses.""Don't push it, Cassian!"Even the most tolerant person had a temper, and Frederick was one of the Four Elites of Rivershire. Infuriated by Cassian's attitude, he snarled icily, "I only apologized to your friend as a courtesy to you. Why else would a useless nobody like him get an apology from me?"Besides, I didn't injure him that badly, but you're asking for a million dollars! Are you trying to extort money from me?"He proceeded to declare, "I'm not budging. 100 thousand dollars is the most I'll give—not a penny more.""In that case, don't blame me for this," Cassian said before marching over to Frederick.As soon as he st

Only then did Cassian lift his foot.Zebb pulled Frederick to his feet before asking in concern, "Are you alright, Mr. Campbell?""I'm fine. At least I get to live to see another day." Frederick wiped his face, only to end up with a handful of blood. There was blood smeared all over his face as well, making him look quite terrifying."Mr. Campbell, are you alright?" Lydia approached Frederick and handed him a towel. Frederick used it to wipe his face. Then, he dug out a check from his pocket. After filling in the figures in the empty slot, he handed it to Chester."Sorry about that, dude. If I had known you were Cassian's friend, I'd have never harmed you in the first place. Here's some money to cover your medical bills. I hope that it's enough for you.""Um…" Bewildered, Chester turned to look at Cassian."Just take it," Cassian said.Only then did Chester accept the check. "Thank you, Mr. Campbell. Since Cassian had offended you earlier, I'd like to apologize to you on h

Meanwhile, a similar conversation took place in the underground garage."Cassian, didn't Andrew make it clear that he'd foot the bill for tonight's reunion? Why did you pay for him just now?" Chester asked in puzzlement.After all, 111 thousand dollars was no meager sum.A smile graced Cassian's face as he replied, "I was the one who ordered the most expensive dishes tonight. If I don't settle the check, I'd be scamming Andrew. We were classmates in the past; there's absolutely no reason to burn bridges like this.""You're pretty wise, eh? Looks like I have lots to learn from you," Chester said with a chuckle.Gemma chimed in, "Honestly, Lydia is the one who disappointed me the most. I didn't think she'd go so far as to shed her pride and ego just for the sake of money. Had I not witnessed her behavior with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that she'd be that sort of person."Chester added, "Thank goodness you've already broken up with Lydia, Cassian. You weren't present earl
