Hearing that Xander knew Brenda, Derek narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Yes.”Very few people knew that Brenda owned the company.The fact that Xander knew exactly who she was, meant that he was keeping close tabs on Ava and then he had investigated who the boss was.Perhaps a male or female.His overly-controlling behavior was truly terrifying.Xander tilted his head upward and guffawed out loud. “Haha, I was wondering who it was that dared to covet my woman. I didn’t expect it to be you, a good-for-nothing who freeloads off his wife! So, are you thinking of hooking up with Ava and marrying her to become the live-in son-in-law of Colby just because Brenda Reid has been disowned by the Reid's ? Let me tell you, forget about it! You’re not even worthy enough to kneel down and lick my shoes!”“That’s enough! Xander Von, don’t go too far! Derek isn’t someone you can slander!” Ava was really exasperated because Derek was the savior of her life, and she felt that there was no reason fo

Derek ignored the resentment in Xander’s gaze and stepped on his ankle. “You’re still so arrogant now, huh? It seems you haven’t learned your lesson yet.”“Ah!” Xander immediately shrieked in misery as a wave of fear surged in his heart. Derek seemed to really have no fear of the Vans and was also capable of doing anything. Now that his bodyguards were incapacitated, he would have to suffer no matter what.Xander was extremely furious, but he knew that he was now in a disadvantageous position and had no choice but to suppress his anger, not daring to glower at Derek. But deep down, he wished he could kill Derek!At this moment, Xander had naturally long forgotten that if he hadn’t come looking for trouble with Derek, insulted him, and forced him to kneel, Derek wouldn’t have done this to him.“I’ve merely taught you a small lesson today. If you’re feeling indignant, feel free to get Becker Van to come look for me. Also, from now on, if I see you pestering Ava again, it won’t be as sim

Derek was furious when he heard this.It was no secret that Clarine had now become the deputy general manager of the Emerald Group and was in charge of handling the duties of the general manager.He reckoned that Aiden must have scurried over to pester her to try and get back together with her after hearing about it.But Derek also felt that there was something amiss.If Aiden merely wanted to continue pestering Clarine, he should have countless methods to do so since he was experienced . Why would he resort to such an extreme method of holding Clarine hostage, forcing her to the rooftop, and threatening to kill her if she didn’t compromise?It didn’t seem like something that a suitor would do!But now was not the time for him to stand here and figure out what was going on. Regardless of whether someone had instigated Aiden or not, Clarine was in an extremely dangerous situation now. She had a chance of falling off the roof or getting slit by the sharp dagger in his hand!Even thoug

Clarine watched as Derek vanished from the edge of the roof and screamed at the top of her lungs uncontrollably, “Derek!”Two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks, and she started bawling loudly, feeling as if her heart was being stabbed by daggers.In contrast, Aiden laughed out loud in great excitement. “Hahaha! What a dimwit. I managed to kill him so easily! I’m going to get rich again soon. Hahaha!”The police on the rooftop of the building couldn’t stop Derek in time and could only watch as he jumped off the building. They all shouted in horror and regret.At the same time, the crowd of onlookers on the ground also shrieked loudly in amazement.When Aiden heard the commotion at the bottom of the building, he guffawed hysterically with great smugness. Then he grabbed Clarine by the collar and looked at the ground to admire the scene of Derek’s badly mangled flesh after he fell off the building.Suddenly, there was a major change!A pair of hands suddenly reached over from the

Derek was still trying to figure out who it was, but then he scurried away quickly. But after covering only a short distance, he discovered that a tall and phantom-like figure had appeared in front of him to block him from leaving.“Still trying to run, huh?”The young man was flabbergasted because the person in front of him was the same person he had been secretly snapping photos of!A few seconds ago, this person was clearly more than meters behind him, yet he was standing in front of him in the blink of an eye. How did he do it?!Having been discovered and even stopped by the person he was secretly snapping photos of, the young man got a little nervous and gritted his teeth. He then barked in a menacing voice, “Why are you stopping me? Get lost!”Derek sneered and pointed at the camera the young man was holding. He asked indifferently, “You’ve been tailing me all afternoon, so you must have taken a lot of pictures, right? Did you think no one could discover you when you’re so clums
