"Smart move, Mr. Freddie. Now, 1.5 million for what's between your legs." Xayne patted Freddie's shoulder.

Freddie burst into tears. "1.5 million?! I thought you said four hundred thousand.”

Xayne shrugged. "Is 1.5 million too much? I think it's reasonable. You wouldn't want to become a eunuch, would you?"

"No! I disagree. You're raising the price for no reason!" Freddie shook his head. The asking price was too harsh.

Even though he had a company with his dad's support and made quite a bit of money over the past few years, he had worked hard to earn it. Giving away 1.5 million was life-threatening. Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed as Xayne struck the ground with the iron rod.

Xayne did not need to speak as his actions spoke louder.

Freddie’s head buzzed as he clenched his thighs, affecting his kneecaps. The pain made him sweat profusely. "Okay, okay! I agree, I agree!"

Xayne grinned. “Indeed, you’re a reliable businessman. Now, how about four million for your life? That’s not too

    Xayne's expression darkened as he crouched down, gently grasping Serena's ice-cold hand. He asked, "Tell me who did this to you."Serena avoided his sincere and determined gaze. It seemed his seriousness left her with nowhere to hide. She could only say, "I-It was my uncle."'Tim?! That motherfucker!'Xayne’s gaze turned furious as he pressed for an answer, “Why did he hit you?”Serena felt helpless and anxious, saying, "There was an issue with the project. It's nothing serious. Don't worry about it."Serena feared Xayne might act recklessly. The latter frowned and caressed Serena's face. The vivid slap mark only fueled Xayne's anger. He asked again, “Is everything okay?”Serena held Xayne’s hand and nodded with a smile. “Everything is fine.”At midnight, Xayne sat on a reclining chair in the small courtyard and gazed at the stars. After ensuring Serena and Coco had fallen asleep, he called Deuce's phone. After all, Ace had already returned to Drakonix to investigate the Bullard

    The company's executives and representatives were dumbfounded. They stared at Serena and Tim with horrified expressions."What's all this about counterfeit materials?""Oh no, this is bad! How much will the compensation cost?""Is this just about money? It’s over for us once someone with ill intentions exposes this!"Some anxiously voiced their concerns. Meanwhile, Serena was just as stunned. She opened the documents and saw some on-site photos and fake material numbers and specifications.“How could this happen?” She had ensured there were no problems before signing contracts with each factory. Everything happened too suddenly.Serena anxiously explained, "Uncle Tim, that’s impossible. I made sure the materials weren’t counterfeit before signing these contracts.”However, Tim coldly rebuked, "What's impossible about it?! The evidence is right before us, and safety incidents have occurred. Are you suggesting someone’s framing you?"Tim snorted and continued, "You are fully resp

    Safety was a top priority in Drakonia. Any company experiencing safety issues would face thorough investigation and severe penalties. The lives of Drakonians were paramount.The five simultaneous accidents concerning the Swift Group were the most significant issue Shalholm had faced in the past year. When the media exposed the incident, it quickly caught the attention of Shalholm’s relevant departments and even the capital authorities.In less than half a day, Shalholm's safety supervision department, the enterprise management department, Shalholm's emergency management department, the Occupational Safety Department, and the capital patrol bureau took action.They dispatched commissioners to the construction sites where the accidents occurred to collect evidence. The five departments gathered and caused a massive public opinion storm.All of the Swift Group’s construction sites received orders to halt immediately. The relevant safety production and construction documents of the S

    Serena panicked as she nodded. “Yes, I am.”"Are you in charge of these construction projects?" Duncan continued questioning.Serena answered truthfully. "Yes, I’m in charge.""Very well, please accompany us for the investigation," Duncan said, gesturing. Then, several patrol officers surrounded Serena.Serena exclaimed, "Mr. Duncan, there must be a misunderstanding! I signed for those materials. There can't be any counterfeit ones. I'm willing to guarantee my life. I wouldn't allow the use of substandard materials.""Guarantee with your life?" Duncan frowned. A subtle disbelief flashed across his eyes. "Do you entrepreneurs take life so lightly? Don't you find it ridiculous? "There are already five severely injured workers still in rescue. You’ve affected five families’ lives. Do you think you can just dismiss it by saying you didn't use substandard materials?"Serena had been in a daze from the start. She had only just learned about the safety incident."Cat got your tongue?

    The Swift Group executives and family members were shocked to hear that."So it was her!""What a despicable woman. Is she trying to destroy us?!""Mr. Duncan, take her away and punish her! We must give the public an explanation!"The company executives erupted into accusations. Serena was dumbfounded, her face trembling. She desperately tried to explain herself, but no one would listen, “No, I really didn’t!”Duncan scoffed and waved, signaling his men to take Serena away.The media outside exposed Serena's acceptance of a hundred and fifty grand in bribes and the use of substandard materials. It stirred up a frenzy of public opinion online and throughout Shalholm City.The enraged citizens cursed, and the families of the injured workers unfurled banners outside the Swift Group, demanding an explanation and strict punishment for Serena.…Meanwhile, Tim held an urgent press conference with the remaining company executives and family members.At the conference, the emotional

    Tim watched as Eric left. Then, he turned to Tony with a sinister smile. “You and your family aren’t allowed to go anywhere until the authorities complete the investigation.”"Tim, that’s..." Tony was bewildered.Tim shrugged Tony off and left with Sophia and Vivian. The other family members followed suit.After reaching home, Sophia exclaimed, “Dad, I never expected Serena to partake in bribery.”Tim calmly sipped his tea and said, “Heh, this incident is very advantageous for us. Once they prove Serena guilty, all her projects will be ours, including Mr. White’s three-million-dollar one. We must secure it as soon as possible.”"Exactly! Serena brought disaster upon herself this time." Sophia revealed a cold and scheming smile.Meanwhile, at Osbo Pharmaceuticals, Curtis was having tea and chatting with a robust middle-aged man. The former anxiously asked, “Mr. Alec, how’s the job going?”The burly man with short hair smiled and said, "Mr. Curtis, rest assured. My people are reli

    Xayne furrowed his brows upon hearing of Serena’s arrest. He asked sharply, “What happened?”Deuce explained the details of the incident, causing Xayne’s expression to darken. “Someone must’ve set her up. Let’s visit the construction sites.”Xayne bid farewell to Bruno and quickly arrived at one of the construction sites with Deuce. However, the site already had police lines around it, prohibiting entry to anyone unrelated to the incident. Xayne frowned and called Harold.After learning about the situation, Harold was in disbelief. “I’m on my way, Supreme Commander.”Simultaneously, he used his phone and issued orders to the patrol officers guarding the cordoned-off site, “Let those two men in!”The officers were stunned and promptly allowed Xayne and Deuce to enter. While the duo inspected the site, Harold arrived to inform Xayne about the relevant details, “Supreme Commander, I just received the news about this myself.“Five departments jointly enforced the safety incidents.

    “Wh-what?! The Supreme Commander wants to see me?” Duncan was flabbergasted. He wondered why someone like that would want to see him. After all, the two had no connections at all.Soon enough, Duncan arrived at the construction site. When he saw a man with Harold nearby, he knew the former was the Supreme Commander.Duncan approached the duo and saluted. “Duncan Wardolf at your service, Supreme Commander.”Xayne glanced at him casually and asked, “Are you in charge of investigating the safety incidents concerning the Swift Group?”Duncan was stunned, not understanding why the Supreme Commander suddenly cared about such a thing. Still, Duncan respectfully replied, “This safety incident involved joint enforcement by five departments, and I’m the commissioner for this operation. What are your orders, Supreme Commander?"Xayne nodded, then said, "My people will handle all the evidence and clues from this safety incident."Duncan trembled as he looked at Harold with a puzzled expressi

    Delwyn's confidence surged as he witnessed the effectiveness of his formation. Xayne's formidable Ravenclaw dagger had been effortlessly repelled, leaving Delwyn feeling invincible.No wonder the Christy family elders always stressed the importance of mastering their First formations. The Christy family's prominence wasn't solely due to their role as guardians of the First Dragon's tomb. Their mastery of ancient formations, some passed down from the First Dragon, was unparalleled, formidable enough to command respect even from the Five Great Mountains.Delwyn laughed triumphantly. The thrill of holding his ground against a Quin-Divine Commander filled him with elation. He had overestimated Xayne.Meanwhile, Xayne retrieved the Ravenclaw dagger, noting an unusual and elusive force surrounding it. Even he couldn't fully grasp its nature. As the dagger's momentum forced him back several steps, Xayne steadied himself, his eyes narrowing."Feeling humbled now, Xayne?" Delwyn smirked, hi

    "You're courting death!" Xayne's words had barely landed when a figure rushed forward, grabbing his arm tightly."Mr. Xayne! Please, calm down! This might all just be a misunderstanding. You can't start a fight here, the consequences would be unimaginable!" Luther's face had turned pale with fear.Both men, Xayne and Delwyn were far beyond what he could handle. If anything happened to either of them in Folksberg, it would spell the end of his political career and likely his freedom."Misunderstanding?" Xayne's cold laughter echoed in the room as he pointed at Delwyn. "Using my name to scam and extort people was bad enough. Forcing women into unspeakable situations? If that's a 'misunderstanding,' then what isn't?"As he finished speaking, a powerful surge of energy erupted from Xayne, his aura soaring to its peak, a Quin-Divine Commander's aura, overwhelming and unstoppable. The force shook Luther's grip loose, leaving him stumbling back in shock.Luther took one look at Xayne's i

    Xayne stepped into the suite with Yanny close behind, drawing the attention of everyone in the room.A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. The two men, Xayne and the imposter looked nearly identical.Even Yanny froze, her eyes darting between them.Before, when they weren't side by side, their resemblance had been noticeable but not striking. Now, face-to-face, their shared aura and presence were unmistakable.The difference was that Delwyn carried himself with an arrogant, almost oppressive authority as if the world were beneath him. In contrast, Xayne exuded a calm yet commanding energy, one rooted in confidence rather than superiority."What is going on here?" Luther stammered, clutching his wine glass.Delwyn was momentarily stunned to see Xayne, but he quickly regained his composure."Xayne!" he sneered.The charade was over. Delwyn saw no point in pretending anymore as he took a sip of red wine from his wine glass and an arrogant expression appeared on his face. Tr

    "In Warren International Hotel. But, young man, we appreciate your kindness but you can't just throw your life away!" Channy turned toward Xayne, his face full of worry.Beside him, Renny chimed in, her voice urgent. "Serena is pregnant! If something happens to you, how am I supposed to explain it to her?""I've told you. I'm Xayne too!" Xayne's tone was firm, his expression unyielding.What he left unsaid, however, was the truth: the so-called "Xayne" they'd met before was a fraud.The problem was that the Riller family had all seen Delwyn. Compared to Xayne, Delwyn carried himself with authority and charisma far superior to Xayne.No one believed that this seemingly ordinary young man before them was the legendary King of the North."Renny, take me there," Xayne ordered, casting a glance at the bedridden Yanny. Seeing that she was no longer in danger, he turned back to Renny."I..." Renny hesitated, unsure.Before she could decide, Yanny struggled to sit up on her bed. Her vo

    Without wasting a second, he led a small group of servants up to the second floor at a brisk pace."Miss Yanny! Please open the door!" Loud, frantic knocks echoed from upstairs."Sir, the door to Miss Yanny's room won't open!" the butler called down, his forehead glistening with sweat as he rushed back downstairs, his breathing uneven."Then what are you all standing around for? Break the door open!" Channy's voice cracked with panic, his face flushed red with desperation. He stomped his foot and beat his chest, his heart filled with regret. He loved Renny and Yanny very much. The words he'd spoken earlier were out of desperation and now felt like a blade twisting in his gut. If anything happened to his granddaughter, he'd never forgive himself.Xayne didn't wait for anyone else to react. He stormed up the stairs, his movements sharp and purposeful. Pushing past the Riller family's servants, he raised his leg and delivered a powerful kick to the door. It burst open with a loud cr

    Before the words were even finished, Xayne had already pushed open the car door and stepped out. Without hesitation, he brushed past the servants at the entrance and led Renny straight into the estate.The moment they walked in, they heard Channy pounding his chest in frustration, his voice thundering as he pointed toward the second floor. "Even if you have no regard for family, can you bear to see so many people dragged down with you?"Around him, more than a dozen servants stood in silence, heads bowed, not daring to make a sound. Two middle-aged men stood before Channy like chastised schoolchildren, their posture rigid, their faces full of unease.When Channy spotted Renny, his face twisted with a mix of surprise and anger. He barely spared a glance at Xayne. After all, in his opinion, Xayne was too ordinary, so ordinary that he didn't even deserve a second look."Renny?" Channy frowned deeply. "You're back just in time. Go upstairs and talk some sense into your sister. If she r

    "Miss Riller, every move you make is under my watch. I even know when you left for Folksworth and when you came back. I have detailed reports here!" Zenn smirked as he pulled out his phone, scrolling through text messages before waving the screen in front of Renny's face."Move your car. I'm in a hurry!" Xayne said coldly, his tone sharp and unwavering.Zenn looked Xayne up and down, sneering. "Who the hell do you think you are? I'm here on Mr. Xayne's orders to wait for her. If you ruin his plans, can you bear the consequences?"As Renny had suspected, if he couldn't have her, he'd make sure no one else could either.When Zenn was having a fancy dinner with Delwyn earlier, he had spilled every detail about her. He praised the Riller sisters, calling them goddesses, but admitted that Renny was far prettier than her sister, Yanny. He mentioned how she'd gone to Folksworth and wasn't sure when she'd return.The moment Delwyn decided to send someone to drag her back to Folksberg, Zen

    Serena noticed Renny's sudden change in expression and asked curiously, "What's wrong?""Nothing!" Renny's voice trembled as she swallowed hard, her small hands shaking as she quickly put her phone away. But no matter how she tried, she couldn't hide the panic in her eyes."Renny, what's going on? Do you still see me as your friend?" Serena pressed, her eyes narrowing with concern.Renny's unease didn't escape Serena's sharp gaze. Renny glanced at Serena and Xayne, her face full of hesitation. "It's about someone with the last name Xavier. He's powerful, and I don't want to drag you two into it!""What?" Serena's brow frowned.Xayne's eyes flickered with interest. He hadn't been paying attention initially, but hearing the mention of the name "Xavier" brought a subtle shift to his gaze. "Someone with the last name Xavier? Renny, can you tell me what's going on?"After a long moment of hesitation, Renny finally pulled out her phone and handed it to Xayne showing the farewell messag

    Channy had stood right behind Luther, and when he heard those words, his heart sank hard. Both his granddaughters had been as stubborn as they came, but if Yanny Riller had decided to stand her ground, it would have spelled big trouble for the Riller family. This hadn't been the same as crossing the Scallow or Armen families. Xayne's influence in Drakonia had been untouchable at that time.Watching Luther bow and scrape as he ushered Xayne into the car, Channy pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Too bad he didn't know that this so-called Xayne was nothing but a fraud."Yanny, you heard what Mr. Xayne just said, didn't you? You see what I mean, right?" Channy asked.Yanny bit her lip hard, her eyes filling with tears. Her gaze was firm as she looked straight at her grandfather. Seeing that look, Channy's heart skipped a beat. He quickly grabbed Yanny's arm and guided her into the car. If Xayne saw that look of defiance on Yanny's face, it'd be the en
