“Derek Brook, are you done? Did you come all the way here and create such a huge ruckus for such a trivial matter? You even beat my son up because of that?” Mrs Reid questioned.

“Trivial matter?” Derek chuckled.

His face suddenly darkened, and he kicked the stone lion at the entrance of the Reid residence into bits!

Bang! With fear written all over their faces, everyone was dumbfounded as they stared at Derek’s leg in disbelief.

He managed to turn a stone lion into bits with just one kick. If he kicked a living person, they’d definitely have their bones broken!

Mrs Reid was also startled by Derek’s sudden kick. She tried to suppress the fear within her before saying unreasonably, “Is that not the case? At least, you are still standing here alive and well. Your so-called wife is good too, isn't she?”

With an icy cold gaze, Derek sneered. “If your son wanted some fame, it shouldn't be at the detriment of my wife."

“He was vicious to the point of even bringing along a bodyguard he hired a

    It should be known that immediately Derek said that, Mrs Ried was scared to her bone, even though she tried as much as she could to suppress the fear so as not to.look like a weakling.She gulped and was just about to combat Derek's words when she saw several Tesla vehicles drive in.Not that alone, several people suited up in black descended each vehicle, walked past Mrs Reid one by one and bowed to Derek respectfully.“Wh-what exactly is going on here?!”“Why are these people so… so respectful toward Derek? It’s like he’s some prestigious and mighty bigshot.” Mrs Reid stuttered underneath her breath.In one minute, after several thoughts, Mrs Reid finally spotted one of the shocks of her life. At the banquet the previous night, she had seen these familiar faces, and they were just related to the Hemsworth family.Not related alone but they were the executive members of the Hemsworth group. “Oh my god. What’s wrong with this world? This is too surreal!” Mrs Reid was forced to voice

    “Mrs Reid, you’re such a vicious old fogey! You are well aware that Mr. Brook is a prestigious figure not to be trifled with, yet you deliberately lured me over and tried to get me to help you deal with Mr. Brook. You’re really malicious!” Holmes hollered furiously while pointing at Mrs Reid’s nose.He had brought a few bodyguards with him because the Reid had given him a large amount of money in exchange. But when he heard that the person the Reid wanted him to help deal with was Derek, his heart dropped. By the time he turned around again, Derek was already standing near him and looking at him smilingly. He instantly regretted his decision and was thankful that he had decided to tag along on a whim!Otherwise, he wouldn’t have known that his bodyguards were to offend Derek. If Derek decided to settle scores with him afterward, he would be in trouble.At the thought of this, Holmes resented Mrs Reid greatly.The rest of the Hemsworth family were rather hostile to Mrs Reid too.Aft

    "You have no business and no right to interfere with the Reids." A voice said from behind and Holmes was forced to turn totally around, and he had his jaw drop in surprise.He reframed immediately when he saw Derek walk up to him, taking over the case.This scenario shocked Holmes greatly, causing him to shudder. He felt at ease only when he saw Derek turn his head away and not hold it against him.With a cold gaze in his eyes, Mrs Reid suddenly said, “Derek, if you want to use this trick to make me thankful to you, you can save it. My opinion of you will never change!”Derek chuckled slightly. “You’re reading too much into things. I don’t care what your opinion is. I just feel unjust for Brenda. To you, Brenda is just an outsider and a plaything that you feel you can use to score points, but she has always treated you idiotic generation as her family.""She thinks of you first before any other person, but how do you all repay her?" Derek sneered.“What I want to tell you is that if B

    Everyone including Mrs Reid also widened their eyes in shock, totally not expecting this.Everyone had always underestimated Derek, always believed he was a lowly person who held nothing in the society, and who could do nothing at all.However, Derek had shocked them all with his words and actions.Mrs Reid originally thought that Derek was a joker and he would definitely not demolish anything, since he had said on account of Brenda he had always reframed, but here they all were in surprise.Derek had demolished all without an iota of mercy.At the thought of this, Mrs Reid shivered within herself the more, as she suddenly felt different about Derek with overwhelming fear.Derek looked at Morphie, whose limbs were broken and was still kneeling on the ground with beads of sweat across his brows, and then at the demolished villa. He then said calmly, “From now on, the Reids and I are even. We will no longer have anything to do with each other.”With that, Derek turned around and walked

    Brenda was still battling with surprises, but then she immediately furrowed her brows. She didn’t expect the person in front of her to be one of the Hemsworth, one of the major families in Dominican.Clarine also understood the lewd meaning in Bernard ’s words, and she immediately hollered furiously, “Idiot! What nonsense are you babbling?! Even if you are the owner, this house has long been bought by a reputable company. Therefore, I see no reason why you should come here blabbing."Clarine was pissed with Bernard's presence and that of his so-called girlfriend. As such, she didn't fail to add, "If you doubt, we could show you documents, and if you insist, I don't mind raising a lawsuit against you."When Bernard heard those words, he immediately flew into a rage, glaring at Clarine menacingly.“Bitch! I dare you to say that again!”Bernard was tall and lanky, and as a result, he made the perfect use of his height to look down on people.The moment Bernard hit the roof, the two b

    “Damn it!” Bernard cursed in rage and was about to get his bodyguards to deal with Derek and show him his prowess. But to his astonishment, the two bodyguards approached him and whispered into his ear, “Mr Brenard, that punk has strange combat skills, and we can’t tell how strong he really is. If he joins forces with that tall and burly one beside him, I’m afraid the two of us can’t beat them.”Although they sounded slightly cowardly, the bodyguards had to speak up now. Otherwise, they would be beaten up later and be even more embarrassed. If Bernard were beaten up badly, they wouldn’t have it easy either.“Damn it!” Bernard cursed again with a sullen expression.He was not completely ignorant. If he were to insist on fighting despite knowing that he would definitely lose, he would be asking for it.With this thought in mind, Bernard suddenly had an idea and said, “Derek, I’ll be honest with you. It’s not the Hemsworth who have taken a fancy to your villa but another big shot, whom yo

    In less than a few minutes, a black Rolls Royce appeared before the gate of Brenda's villa.On the other hand, Brenda, Clarine and Derek were preparing to have lunch, when it was suddenly disrupted by this sound. "Derek or whatever your name is called! You are given just a few minutes to exit this villa with your supposed family." The trio gazed at each other in surprise. In a few minutes, they were at the balcony gazing only to find a young man suited in black with his hair brushed to the back, standing right in front of the villa.Derek furrowed his brow immediately, he had enough drama for that day already, but he was getting pissed as time passed.It's no big deal to show them proof of his ownership for the house and entire estate, but it wasn't time to reveal his identity to the world."Derek, what do we do? I've called Mr B but he isn't responding." Brenda said in panic. However, at the same time, Derek went deep into his thought, he needed to do something without exposing his

    "Who dared trample upon my property amongst you?" Derek burst into the Justin's mansion raging in terror after he had beaten all the securities at the entrance to a pulp with the aid of Blade."Who let the nitwit in?" Andrew said to himself, he was about to call the guards when he noticed a body being dragged by Derek.Suddenly, Derek flung the body forward, causing Andrew to jolt forward, a glance at the body, he almost squealed in fear.That was his chief security officer lying lifelessly. It was then he realized that there was absolutely no use calling security.Andrew watched as Derek approached him step by step. It was almost as if he was looking at a terrifying beast as he started trembling violently. If not for his pride keeping him hanging in, he would have probably turned limp and dropped to his knees in front of Derek.Derek walked up to Andrew and said with a faint smile, “Mr. Justin, I thought you would have some sense up there in your skull, but your act today proved to me

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
