Everyone wondered who Derek had called, at the same time, some of them scoffed mockingly including Matilda who proceeded to call the cops. "Let's see what you've got, you loser!" Matilda sneered after cutting the call.Derek on the other hand merely smiled while Brenda was sceptical."Young master, I'm sorry for the delay, I had to make sure I downloaded the real records before I came around.""Young master?" Those two words rang across the restaurant. There were murmurs everywhere, even Brenda was confused herself.The young man who had just walked in was dressed in a black bespoke suit against his lean body. He was the manager of Westvane restaurant highly respected by all, but here he was bowing to Derek who was always bullied by the society.Everyone present was surprised, however, Derek remained indifferent, he ordered Alexander the manager to play the record from the hearing of everyone present.On the large Led Tv, the record was played over and over again to everyone's view.

Mrs Reid was raging, and so was Morphie, Both of them thought someone somewhere amongst the workers must have acted as a spy to tarnish the company's image or just anything could have happened.But then, who could have done that? And why would any of them do such a thing? Mrs Reid thought it herself, she was boiling so hard. After the excess effort put into making the contract coke fulfilled, then someone out of nowhere just tarnished everything in the glimpse of an eye.Everyone was present, It was a sudden call, and as such, none of them had got to reason as to the sudden gathering. As such, and waiting for words from either two of them."Who amongst you is against the Reid group and was involved in betraying the company?""What! Betrayal?" Each of them locked eye-to-eye with the other in surprise. “Really? How did that happen? Who could have done that?" one of the workers yelled out."Who could have gone against the company?" All the workers were in confusion. Conspicuous peekin

The moment Brenda peeked into the phone, and saw her mum's name reflected as the caller ID, She had frustratedly smashed her lips turning down the call.The last thing on her mind was getting involved with her family that sucks. Yet, at the same time, the more she dwelled into her thoughts, the more the call kept bringing her out of it.Annoyingly, she had picked with the aim of angrily pouring her heart open, but then, she met something entirely different.She was expecting to hear her mom's voice on the other end. But what she heard instead made her heart race with fear. It was one of the maids and she sounded panicked. "Miss Reid, you need to come over to your mom's house right away. There's been an accident."Brenda felt a lump form in her throat, and her hands started shaking. But then she asked for more details at first ."What about my brother, isn't he there to save her?""Umm…. Ma'am, he went out without telling anyone about his destination. All workers were given a day off,

Brenda was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the wall in front of her. Her mind was racing with a million thoughts, and she couldn't seem to make sense of any of them. She had just had the most bizarre conversation with her mother, and she was feeling frustrated beyond measure.Morphie was in no way different either, the best he could do was cross his hands against his chest haughtily as though he never gave a damn about whatever was going to happen.Selling his sister out all in the name of position meant nothing at all to either of them.All he wanted was to get the director's position back regardless of what price anyone would have to pay just to get it.Brenda flickered her eyes twice. She suddenly felt blood gush through her spine in hurt.After a momentary silence, she suddenly broke her tongue loose and said in anger. "So let me get this straight," Brenda said, her voice shaking with anger. "You want me to get married to the chairman of Emerald Group, just so that your damn compan

Brenda's face was a bit swollen and pale, it showed how much she has been stressed in the recent time just because of her damn family who had never been here for her in any way, and also her husband whom Clarine thought had betrayed her.Clarine, no!” Clarine was determined to see through this for her friend, but on the other hand, Brenda hurriedly pulled her back.“You’ve just gotten this job, so don’t get involved in this matter, lest it affects your job. As far as I know, the Emerald group does not accept shit. If you dare raise anything, I'm not sure you might get fired. And I wouldn't be able to forgive myself. I'd live with guilt for my entire life.""Huh huh." Clarine pouted. "We are more than friends Brenda, why should I turn the table against you and make you live with guilt?" "You've always got my back in the past, have you forgotten? Sometimes you take the blame just so I don't incur my parents' wrath, and at the same time, the last one which happened else I should be a d

Hurriedly, Brenda and Clarine rushed over to the Reid home. In order to ensure that at least before her mum and so called brother would do anything stupid, they could get to stop them on time.As they thought, upon heir arrival, at the Reid residence, they sighted Mrs Reid and Morphie proceed out of the mansion with a group of men dressed in black.Hurriedly, Brenda was furious and rushed towards them in anger. "Do you two even know what you are going at all? Why would you want to kill an innocent man just because of your silly mistakes? This isn't right at all?" Brenda yelled out amidst sobs."Why try to destroy the innocent?"However, Mrs Reid ordered them to shove her aside while they proceeded to the vehicle.The few guards naturally knew Brenda, but instead, they yanked her off as they were told. As long as they knew, Brenda was in no place to order them. The only order they succumbed to was actually that of either Mrs Reid or Morphie.Nevertheless, Brenda stomped to her feet fro

Brenda looked at Derek in great disbelief.It wasn't the first time he was defending her in front of outsiders, or defending her when she was bullied by her family, but this was the first time she was seeing him beat somebody just because of her.More so, it wasn't just anyone, it was her brother, one who had bullied him for a very long time. All of a sudden, Brenda looked at Derek with a complicated gaze.The guards looked at each other in dismay, at a loss for what to do. Logically speaking, they ought to follow Mrs Reid's orders by dealing with Derek. But here they were fidgeting in daylight. Derek didn't come along, he came together with a few of Gage's men.The moment he alighted from the office tower, he had suspected something different might happen, he couldn't tell what it could be for sure, but he was sure something unusual was about to happen.Therefore, he had called for extra hands, thankfully, his guesses were not wrong the moment he walked in just to see his wife bein

"Brenda!" Derek lowered his head and looked at Brenda who was kneeling on the ground, her hair and clothes drenched to the extent that she looked extremely miserable.She was his woman, and yet she was being abused like this!Anger brewed in his eyes as he glared at the heavens in anger. “One day, you Reid will regret your decision today and pay the price for it!”He took off his jacket, wrapped it around the drenched Brenda picked her up in his arms, and then disappeared into the rain.Earlier on, he had gone to check her at Orange Island, but then he had received the news that she wasn't in. Fear gripped him, he remembered Clarine, called her immediately asking after Brenda, but then she had been confused herself.She told Derek all that transpired between them after which Derek immediately went in search of her.Along the line, he had called her yet her phone want going through. A lot ran through his mind immediately, what if those vipers had kept her back? He thought to himself, h

W-what’s going on?The ten-odd bodyguards who barged in glared at Derek like he was a great enemy.On the ground, Perry gritted his teeth resentfully as he struggled to raise his head to look at the bodyguards and ordered, “Kill… kill him!”The punch Derek threw at his abdomen left Perry in so much pain that he was on the verge of throwing up all the food he had eaten for the past few days. The slightest movement made him feel intense pain in his stomach.For the past few decades of his life, Perry had never been beaten up like this or suffered such a huge loss before!If Derek could still leave Perry ’s turf under the siege of so many bodyguards, Perry would be thoroughly embarrassed!The ten-odd bodyguards and Perry ’s personal bodyguard acknowledged and immediately surrounded Derek.Derek smiled coldly and raised his leg to kick the bald bodyguard who rushed in front of him, sending him flying!“Ah!” The bald bodyguard let out a miserable cry as his body was propelled upward be

“No!” Perry refused resolutely. “This isn’t a small business. We’ve monopolised it in Dominican! If I recommend some clients to you, won’t I be giving my family a competitor for no reason?”Derek shook his head. “I naturally won’t run this business in Dominican and become your competitor.”After giving it some thought, Perry still didn’t believe Derek. “Your roots are all in Dominican. Why should I believe that you would leave this place and go elsewhere to run this business.”Derek shrugged. “It’s up to you to believe me or not. Mr. Perry, please get your facts right. I’m doing you a favour by asking you to recommend clients to me. To put it bluntly, the Bathhouse is in my hands now, and so are those beautiful women. Even if I take over the business directly now, what can you do for me?”Derek's words made Perry’s face turn gloomy again.But this was really what the current situation was like. Since that bastard manager had presumptuously sold the Bathhouse, Derek was the dominant p
CHAPTER 291
Perry’s face was naturally extremely gloomy at this point.Derek was clearly trying to intimidate him!It was just an ordinary dice, but the power that emerged from Derek’s hand when he threw it was not inferior to the power contained in a bullet shot from a gun!Besides, the dice Derek shot had landed near Perry’s head. If Derek had intended to kill Perry, he would have probably been shot in the head by now!At the thought of this, Perry felt his entire body’s hair stand on end, and cold sweat rapidly seeped out of his pores, making him chilly all over.And Perry’s elite bodyguard was also overwhelmed with shock.As a bodyguard, he should protect his employer’s safety in any emergency situation.But the speed of the dice Derek shot out just now was so quick that it wasn’t visible to the naked eye. In fact, he only figured out what happened after hearing the terse and sharp sound of the dice shuttling through the air, followed by the loud bang.He couldn’t even react in time, let alon
CHAPTER 290
When Perry saw how bold and fearless Derek was, his facial muscles twitched a little as he gritted his teeth with great resentment and viciousness in his eyes.With a hypocritical grin, he said, “Hehe, why would I do that? Since I invited you here, I naturally have something to discuss with you.”He thought he had hidden his intentions well. But being a sharp and shrewd person, Derek had long seen through Perry.“Mr. Perry, don’t beat around the bush with me. If you have anything to say, just say it.” Derek couldn’t be bothered to exchange hypocritical pleasantries with him. He simply leaned against the couch and got straight to the point.Seeing Derek taking the lead in the conversation, Perry was displeased, and his face immediately turned dark.He waved his hand, and the few scantily clad beauties sitting beside him immediately walked out of the room.Soon, only Derek, Perry, and a burly man who followed Perry wherever he went were the only ones left in the large private room.Dere

Derek frowned.He didn’t expect Aiden to die despite being in police custody.But there were definitely potential loopholes everywhere. If it was really the doing of the force that Derek guessed, the police would likely be defenceless and unable to guard against their actions.But Aiden’s death was not in vain. At the very least, Derek was now certain that the mastermind who instigated Aiden was more likely than not same person who sent the photographer.Otherwise, Aiden wouldn’t have died so easily.“Okay, I know.”Derek was about to hang up the phone when he noticed in the rearview mirror that there were several inconspicuous cars tailing his car. Their intentions were unclear, but he knew that they had to be up to no good.He frowned. They’re really everywhere. How annoying!He wondered who sent these people to tail him.With a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, Derek hung up the phone and quickly made another call. “Come to Clarine's apartment, I will send you an address.”Der
CHAPTER 288
Derek couldn't tell who it was yet, but he knew he would find out.With a sharp and cold gaze in his eyes, Derek raised his head and looked distantly in the direction of the DC. “Hmph, I don’t care who you really are. As long as you dare to reach your hand here, I don’t mind chopping it off!”When Derek reached the amusement park entrance, he saw Clarine waiting here for him worriedly.“Derek, did you get what you went for? Did you find everything?” she asked curiously.Derek raised his arm with two paper bags and said with a faint smile, “I got them. Fortunately, there was no queue.Clarine grinned and teased, “It turns out you really are caring.”Derek smiled. He merely nodded and said, “Yeah, so you have to be like me as well. In the meantime, it's getting late, let's go home.”Clarine nodded happily. Soon, the two of them got into Lucas’s car and sped off.…At this moment, in a luxurious villa in Dominican.A young man in his twenties was reclining on a soft leather sofa with a s
CHAPTER 287
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
CHAPTER 286
In fact, Derek could have chosen not to catch Aiden and let him fall to his death just now, as he ought to reap what he sowed.But the words Aiden said earlier made Derek suspect that someone was instigating him. So Derek caught him and allowed him to stay alive to interrogate him and find out more from him.But the matter of Aiden taking Clarinet hostage and trying to jump off the building with her had alarmed almost all the police systems in the city. Many reporters had also hurried over with their cameras and equipment to get the first hand news scoop.In such a situation, Derek naturally couldn’t interrogate Aiden personally. He simply handed Aiden over to the special police officers for them to investigate.The chief special police officer nodded and instructed his subordinates to send Aiden to the hospital. After Aiden came to, they would bring him in for interrogation immediately.Of course, as the parties involved in the incident, Derek and Clarine had to make a mandatory trip
CHAPTER 285
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
