    Chapter 1: I'm Sorry, Let's Divorce!

    Silverhaven City, Abyssal Bastion.On the surface, Abyssal Bastion appeared to be just an ordinary maximum-security prison. Yet, beneath this mundane facade, it housed the most feared and infamous criminals in all of Ardenia.Within its grim walls languished billionaires whose wealth rivaled entire nations, ruthless kings of assassins soaked in blood, powerful officials who once wielded supreme authority, cunning spies with minds sharper than blades, and enigmatic cultivators whose very existence remained shrouded in mystery.Yet at this very moment, these formidable figures—any one of whom could send tremors across the globe—stood submissively, hardly daring to breathe, casting anxious glances toward the tall, handsome young man before them.His name was Anthony Jones, the undisputed king of this prison.Today marked precisely three years since Anthony entered this place, and now, at last, he was a free man again."You little bastards better remember this clearly," Anthony warned col

    Chapter 2: My Company—Horizon Group
    Mitchell Family Villa"Wow, Freya, you’re incredible! You actually got that loser to sign the divorce papers so easily?"The moment Freya Mitchell stepped into the Mitchell family villa, she was immediately surrounded by her relatives. Preston Mitchell, her younger brother, caught sight of the divorce agreement in her hand and nearly leaped with joy. His voice brimmed with excitement as he exclaimed,"I thought that trash would resist, clinging to us like a leech. At least he had the sense to back off. Otherwise, I would’ve had someone break his legs!"At that moment, Preston Mitchell perfectly embodied the very definition of ungratefulness—completely forgetting that three years ago, he had knelt before Anthony Jones, sobbing and begging him to take the fall for his crime.Freya’s brows furrowed in displeasure. "Preston, that’s enough. No matter what, Anthony is still your benefactor."Preston scoffed, rolling his eyes. "If you say so. As long as we got rid of him, that’s all that mat

    Chapter 3: I Am the Boss Here
    Freya Mitchell stepped out of the car, frowning as she looked at Anthony."Anthony, what are you doing here?"He had just divorced her, and now she was already riding in another man’s car.Anthony glanced at Isaiah Harris, immediately realizing that this must be the so-called Mr. Harris Giselle had mentioned. A flicker of irritation passed through his gaze, his expression turning cold."I believe we’re already divorced, Miss Mitchell. Where I go and what I do is no longer your concern, is it?"The distance and indifference in his voice made Freya’s heart tighten. Yet, she had no right to refute him. Biting her lip, she chose to remain silent."Fuck! So you’re that waste of space—Anthony Jones?"Isaiah Harris scoffed, his face lighting up with a mixture of surprise and mocking amusement."Nice to finally meet you! I’m Isaiah Harris—Freya’s boyfriend."Anthony barely spared him a glance before looking away, completely ignoring him.Isaiah felt his pride take a hit. His expression darken

    Chapter 4: Live With Me
    Anthony turned to Caroline Hill and asked, "By the way, Caroline, has Horizon Group finalized its list of potential collaborators for the Silverhaven City project?""Yes, Master! I'll retrieve the documents for you right away," she replied.Anthony sighed. "Caroline, you don’t need to call me ‘Master.’ Just call me Anthony… or Mr. Jones."Caroline was momentarily stunned but quickly nodded. "Understood, Mr. Jones."She walked over to the safe, retrieving a folder before respectfully handing it to him.Anthony took the documents and began flipping through them.As expected, Mitchell Family was on the list.Caroline, noticing his gaze linger on their file, hesitated before speaking."Mr. Jones, are you considering working with the Mitchells?"Having spent a year in Silverhaven City, Caroline was well aware of Anthony’s past with the Mitchell Family.It was precisely because of this connection that she had discreetly ensured their name made it onto the list.Anthony glanced at the file,

    Chapter 5: The New Chairman’s Order
    "Freya, this is what real connections look like."Isaiah Harris exhaled a puff of smoke, wearing a smug expression."That country bumpkin Anthony will never be able to compare."Freya Mitchell felt a slight sense of relief. She made no effort to defend Anthony as Isaiah mocked him."Thank you, Mr. Osborne, for giving the Mitchell Family this opportunity!"Richard Osborne squinted, his gaze lingering on Freya’s exposed legs, his desire surging.With a smirk, he waved his hand dismissively."No need for thanks—we’re all on the same side. If you really want to be grateful, you should thank Mr. Harris instead. I only agreed to this because of him."Richard Osborne wasn’t blind. He could see that Isaiah Harris was pursuing Freya Mitchell, so he simply pushed all the credit onto Isaiah, making it seem like he had done her a favor.Freya tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and turned to Isaiah."Mr. Harris, thank you."Isaiah grinned, waving it off."Freya, with the relationship between u

    Chapter 6: A New Job
    Hearing Anthony's words, Freya Mitchell was momentarily stunned.But she had made her choice.If she continued to be involved with Anthony, it would not only affect her but also jeopardize the future of the Mitchell Family.Throughout history, those who sought greatness had to make sacrifices.And in her eyes, Anthony was a sacrifice she had to make.Seeing Freya remain silent, Anthony continued,"Freya Mitchell, is this how you see me? Being cast aside by you wasn’t enough?""Enough!" Freya snapped, her voice tinged with frustration. "Anthony, I don’t want to argue with you anymore."I only called to tell you this—no one can stop me from securing a partnership with Horizon Group."I will win that contract, no matter what.""Oh? Is that so?"Anthony chuckled."Well then, I won’t argue with you either. I sincerely hope you succeed on your own merits and won’t come begging me later."With that, he ended the call.Freya stared at her phone, her face twisted in anger.Clenching her fists,

    Chapter 7: How Could It Be You?
    "Yes, Master!"Their voices rang in unison.For some time, they had been hiding within the depths of Silverhaven City. Half an hour ago, they had received orders from Caroline Hill to await their master's arrival at Villa One.Anthony nodded in satisfaction. "From now on, you will live here in Crystal Haven. I enjoy having company—I don't care for solitude.""As you wish, Master!"The five warriors responded in chorus.Then, Anthony continued, "One of you should stay behind while the other four go out and get some food. Tonight, once Caroline gets off work, let's have a proper celebration.""Understood!"They responded with robotic precision, answering only as prompted.Anthony chuckled. "No need to be so stiff—I’m easygoing. There’s no need for formalities."Hearing this, Theseus immediately spoke up, "See? I told you our master would be a good man. Let’s not be so uptight! Our only duty is to serve him well and follow him to the very end!"Heracles' expression darkened slightly. "Th

    Chapter 8: The Pathetic Gift
    After finishing his sentence, Theseus realized this was beyond his ability to handle, so he simply shut the door.Standing outside, Joanna Kennedy bit her lip in frustration. She was unwilling to give up so easily, but she couldn't force the chairman of Horizon Group to comply.Inside the villa, Anthony dialed Caroline Hill’s number."Caroline," he said calmly, "I’ve divorced Freya Mitchell. However, I still want the project competition to be conducted fairly. That said… keep an eye on the Mitchell family. Let’s see if they truly have the strength to compete."With that, he hung up without waiting for a reply.On the other end of the line, Caroline Hill furrowed her brows slightly, contemplating the implications of Anthony’s words.Was the chairman suggesting she extend some favor to the Mitchell family? Did this mean he still harbored feelings for Freya Mitchell?The thought made Caroline hesitant for only a moment before she gave the order—her subordinates were to conduct a thorough

    Chapter 9: I Know Your Abilities Best
    Hearing this, Anthony took a deep breath and said to Freya Mitchell, "I will give Grandpa this gift. I never had the money to buy him anything before, but now that I do, I want to give him something worthy. This is my final gift to him—my way of thanking him for the years he took care of me."Freya scoffed, her tone laced with mockery. "Money? The money you have now is the money I gave you! Anthony… saying something like that, don’t you feel even a little ashamed?"Anthony shook his head, clearly exasperated. "Oh? And you’re certain I used the money you gave me? Funny, because I nearly forgot about it myself. But since you brought it up, let me make this clear—I haven’t touched a single cent of it."With that, he pulled out the bank card and villa keys Giselle had given him earlier and tossed them onto the ground without even sparing them a glance.Freya’s expression darkened instantly.She frowned. "Anthony… don't you think you're being childish?"The air between them grew thick with

    Chapter 10: Why Did You Call Me?
    "That's right, Anthony, stop showing off! If you could really help us secure this cooperation, my sister wouldn't have had to..." Preston Mitchell suddenly remembered that Grandpa was present and paused mid-sentence.Nevertheless, his eyes were filled with contempt for Anthony.In his view, Anthony was merely seeking attention.Everyone at the table, except for Grandpa, had been ignoring him.The members of the Mitchell family were all looking at Anthony with disgust.However... Freya Mitchell did take Anthony's words to heart.After all, if Anthony truly was working as a janitor at the Horizon Group chairman's home, he might indeed be able to put in a good word, though whether it would have any effect remained questionable.Seeing their reactions, Anthony offered no further explanation.Kimberly Lane looked toward Isaiah Harris and smiled. "We have Isaiah, don't we? I'm sure Isaiah can help us."Her eyes were filled with delight as she gazed at him.Isaiah Harris cast a smug glance a
