Joseph was huge, and he resembled a humanoid beast. However, he instantly crashed to the ground after Frederick's crushing blow. He clutched his leg, and wailed in agony.Everyone was stunned at the scene before them."This is outrageous...""Were they really nicknamed Beast Warriors?""I actually think Frederick is more of a Beast Warrior than Joseph…"After Frederick took action, he turned to look at Jessica with icy eyes. She was now as pale as a ghost."I usually don't hit women. But you're in luck today, because I've decided to make an exception for you!"With that, he swiftly slapped her across her face, instantly sending her flying more than ten meters away. She soon crashed into a dining table; glass shards and cutlery stabbed into her body, and blood flowed freely from all her injuries.The previous slap was just a test. But this time, Frederick was serious!Jessica was instantly disfigured. Her teeth were knocked out, and the wounds on her face chillingly revealed gl
As soon as Gerald stepped forward, he angrily rebuked Dylan in a loud and assertive manner. "Look at how badly my sister is injured! Isn't it all because of what you've done as her husband? You've been indulging her reckless behavior all this time! "And now, you're trying to falsely accuse others? If I believed you, it would become a case of misusing public resources for personal gain and corrupt practices!"Dylan covered his face, and staggered back a few steps. He was utterly stunned and at a loss for words. He wanted to cry, but no tears came. "Gerald, I..."He had thought his family's savior had arrived. Instead, he had been rebuked."That's Mr. Stewart to you!" Gerald roared. "Now, apologize to Ms. Smith and Mr. Lester right now!"With that, Dylan could only swallow his pride and limp over to Frederick and Jasmine. "I'm sorry."Those few words seemed to drain all the strength from him, and he looked like he had aged ten years in an instant.The onlookers couldn't hel
Outside the hotel, Selene suddenly stopped in her tracks. Then, she said hesitantly, "Fred, I'm sorry!""What's wrong?" Frederick turned around."If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have offended Parker Properties and Mirage Construction. Will this affect your career?" Selene bit her lip, feeling guilty.Frederick chuckled silently, and pinched her cheek gently. "Who cares who they are? I would have done the same to anyone who dared bully my sister. Even if it was the king himself, I would tear down his palace!""Fred..." Selene was moved to the brink of tears.She walked up to him and hugged him tightly, and her eyes were slightly red. "Don't be so good to me! You need to think about yourself more, too!"Frederick held her close, his voice filled with affection as he said, "I have no other family besides you and Mom. If I don't protect you both, what else is worth protecting?"Of course, there was Jennifer, the ice queen. He would somewhat consider her as part of his family."B
Upon hearing the news, Frederick was stunned. Their company had only been established for a few days—how could there be unpaid wages? Did these protesting migrant workers mistake them for someone else?"Are you sure these people are there for us?" Frederick asked again."Absolutely sure! They said our names and positions very clearly. They're here specifically for us!" Jasmine said urgently. "Hurry up and come over! I'm going to lose control of the situation soon!"Frederick had no choice but to rush out to the company. When he arrived, there really was a group of rural laborers holding banners and demanding their wages. Various shouts echoed around the area."Heartless bosses are withholding hard-earned money from rural laborers!""Their actions caused laborers to be unable to return home, and they have to sleep under bridges!""The bosses are splurging money earned from workers' sweat on clubs, luxury cars, and yachts!"There were many reporters with cameras in their hands,
Jasmine hurried forward to Frederick."Frederick, I suspect there's more to this than meets the eye. Someone must have orchestrated this from behind the scenes. If you rashly take on this mess now, they could use it against us later! It's all risk and no gain for us!" she whispered.The head of security also stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Mr. Lester, there's no need to fear these poor folks. We have over twenty security guards with us, armed and ready. Handling them will be a piece of cake!"Frederick replied firmly, "Enough said. I will make sure they get paid their wages. Because... My dad was also a laborer."As he said this, he felt a complicated mix of emotions.Cyrus used to work tirelessly day and night for the sake of their family. Sometimes, he could only come home once a weeklThese people earned their living with their own hands. They worked hard to support their families, but were still manipulated by heartless bosses. Sometimes, their complaints went unhear
Frederick headed straight to Fascine Villa without hesitation. He knocked firmly on the grand doors of the estate."It's me, Frederick Lester. Ms. York called me here to discuss something with you. It's extremely urgent!" he declared.Soon, Frederick was ushered into Fascine Villa's main hall. Xavier was dressed in traditional attire, and he looked to be in high spirits when he emerged."Did Jennifer send you here to surrender?" Xavier chuckled confidently. "Without the funds from our family, your company has reached its limits, right?"Xavier grinned broadly. "If you want our family to come back into play, your presence alone won't cut it. Jennifer herself must come here. She must serve me tea, admit her faults, and promise to step down from the CEO position. She must also relinquish control of the board. If she doesn't do all of that, you can forget about it!"Frederick frowned in irritation. "You old geezer, have you been daydreaming too much?"Did this old man really think
"You're fired," a tall, striking woman announced. She wore a black pencil skirt, and her demeanor was cool and distant.Frederick Lester swallowed harshly as he looked at the woman's beautiful figure and tried not to let his eyes wander.The woman was Jennifer York, the recently appointed Vice President of the corporation. At twenty-seven, she was a highly educated returnee with a Ph.D. and dual degrees. She was also rumored to earn an incredibly high annual salary of as high as one billion!Today was her first day, and it had been full of tough interviews and layoffs.Someone from HR came up and tapped him on the shoulder. "Frederick, it's your turn." Frederick nervously entered her office. "Ms. York, you wanted to see me?"But as he entered, he saw Jennifer on the floor. She was obviously in distress, and her breathing was heavy!Frederick's concern spiked, and his heart raced.He had to do something!Despite her situation, her beauty was undeniable. He couldn't help bu
Marissa grabbed her bag and stood up. She sneered and said, "I'm a graduate of a prestigious university and a senior employee at a Fortune 500 company! I earn twenty thousand a month, own two cars, and a house!"You make less than four thousand, and you're a nobody. How dare you think of dating me?!"I assumed you were some charming, wealthy heir. But a twenty-five-year-old with neither a car nor a house? What a disappointment! How can you be so shameless to even show up here?!"Marissa pointed a finger accusingly at Frederick, her words cutting like a knife.Frederick's face turned icy in an instant. If this were Belleria, a woman like her would never get away with such behavior!When the situation escalated, Sylvia quickly stepped in and said, "Marissa, even though Fred doesn't have a car or house right now, he's down-to-earth and full of potential...""Back off! Don't touch me, you old hag!" Marissa yelled and rudely shoved Sylvia aside."Don't touch my mom!" Frederick said
