No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 751

Andrew and Fiona were speechless. They wondered if these two women—these female bodyguards—

had something going with jackie under their noses since they always stood for jackie and supported him.

How could he stop working a job with a monthly salary of 20 million? Apart from that, how could these

women say that the richest man was lucky to have jackie work as their family’s bodyguard?

jackie smiled bitterly and said to Fiona, “Mother, I betted one hundred million a game with Young Master

Turner, and I won ten games back to back. Are you sure you don’t want this money?”

“We surely—” Fiona was about to say ‘no’ before realization dawned on her. “What?! One hundred

million a game, you say? And you won ten games? Doesn’t that mean you’ve won a whole one billion?!”

“Yes, one billion,” came jackie’s calm-sounding reply, added with a shrug. “Do you feel that I should give

it up just because Young Master Drake spoke up on his behalf?”

“One billion!” Andrew also exclaimed. This…this was too much! How did they settle with such large

wagers?!

“That;s a lot! I thought it’d be around a hundred dollars bet per game, and at most, a thousand dollars.

How did it come to a billion?! We must take the money! We can’t give up such a big amount!” Fiona grew

increasingly excited when she thought about it.

She walked forward happily and patted jackie’s shoulder while saying, “Dear me! It’s all a

misunderstanding. It’s alright to give up the job if it’s one billion dollars. This one billion is enough for us,

and if we’re frugal, we don’t need to worry for the rest of our lives. One whole billion! jackie, you’ve made

a really intelligent choice!”

“That’s right! How can we give up a billion dollars?” Andrew was just as elated as his wife, and he asked,

“Have you received the money?”

“Don’t you worry. The money is safe and sound in my bank!” jackie said with a smile.

“Alright, the two of you bodyguards better follow me out later. I’ll go buy some ingredients, and we’ll cook

a table full of dishes to celebrate!” Overwhelmed with excitement, Fiona went and patted jackie’s

shoulders with both hands. “ jackie, I’ll reward you with a table full of dishes tonight. You’ve worked hard

these past days!”

jackie thought about it and purposely brought the matter up once more as he spoke, “Umm… Mother,

this job is really gone!”

“Hey, it’s fine to let it go. We can start a big company with this one billion. Why are we afraid? Let’s just

be our own boss!” Fiona soon left with both bodyguards forthrightly.

“You’re really one-of-a-kind. Why didn’t you tell us about this right off the bat? You’ve frightened your

mother and I!” Andrew said with a smile after Fiona left.

“Frankly speaking, Father, to be honest, I wouldn’t continue working as a bodyguard for the Drakes after

I’m fired,” said jackie, “even if I don’t get this one billion. After all, I’m not such a shameless person!”

jackie laughed and added, “It’s not about the amount of money; it’s about the dignity as a person.”

Andrew was embarrassed when he heard this. He opened his mouth but did not know what to say as;

jackie was right.

Chapter 752

Timothy was already drunk, and coincidentally, it was at the period when Selena would finish working

and leave her office.

With his mood soured, he drank to his heart’s content with Leo and the others before he got ready to go

home.

As they were drunk, Leo asked one of his bodyguards to send Timothy home.

However, Timothy asked the driver to stop the car when they passed by Drake Dynasty Real Estate.

The Turner family’s bodyguard turned around and asked Timothy with a frown, “What is it? Do you feel

like vomiting, Young Master Drake?”

“No, I need to go down. I’ve got something to do! F*ck, I’m getting heated just thinking about it. He’s just

a bodyguard! How dare he refuse to give me face?” Young Master Drake smirked, got down from the car,

and spoke to the bodyguard, “Wait for me here, I’ll be back soon.”

“Yes, Young Master Drake.” The man nodded.

Timothy soon entered the office, rather tipsy with the aftermath of the win he had.

“Young Master Drake, why are you here?”

“Young Master Drake, good day to you!”

Most of the company’s employees looked at him in surprise when they saw Timothy, even more so when

they noted he was drunk.

“I’m here to take a look at how you guys are doing recently!” Timothy laughed and walked toward the

purchasing department.

“Is she here?” Soon, he arrived at Selena’s office door. With that smirk still on his face, he opened the

door, entered the office, and locked it.

“Why is Young Master Drake here? Why does he stink of wine?” The purchasing department’s employee,

Felicia, asked her supervisor, Sonia with a frown.

Sonia smiled coldly and lowered her voice as she said, “Isn’t it obvious? I had a weird feeling for so long

now. Why did they refuse to promote me to a manager and suddenly employed Selena Taylor to work as

the manager here? Apart from that, the Drake family still treats her husband so nicely.” Sonia held her

hands in front of her chest and said peculiarly, “Do you know why? Selena must be secretly involved with

Young Master Drake. They must’ve done what they did in private previously. Today, the young master is

obviously drunk and is horny. I’m sure he’s here to look for her in the office.”

“Tsk, tsk! If that’s the case, isn’t Young Master Drake slightly too eager? Selena will finish work in thirty

minutes. Can’t he wait a little longer? Isn’t it better to wait for her to finish work and meet in the hotel?”

asked Felicia.

“Hey, you don’t understand men. Some men get extremely excited after they have drinks. Who knows,

he’s probably looking to try something new at a new setting!” Sonia explained.

…

“Young Master Drake, why are you here? Can I help you?”

Chapter 753

Selena frowned when she saw Timothy entering her office without prior announcement. Her guard was

up when she realized he reeked of alcohol and even locked the door. She immediately stood up and

walked out from behind her desk.

“Don’t be nervous!” Timothy laughed and sized up Selena under the influence of alcohol.

He always thought that Selena was utterly beautiful, but he was not interested as she was married and

older than him.

In his drunken state, however, he felt giddy as he eyed how the formal dress on this woman accentuated

her beautiful figure.

He took just a few steps toward Selena and said, “I just so happened to pass this place on my way

home, so I’m here to take a look. I’d like to know what’s the development of South Hill Real Estate’s

project. By the way, I heard that you’ve appointed the Taylor family to supply eighty percent of the project

material?”

The corners of Selena’s mouth twitched when she heard this. She had been worried about how people

would gossip about this behind her back.

Still, many days had passed without anybody saying anything. After all, the general manager had agreed

to this and signed the agreement. Even he felt that the materials from the Taylor family were rather good.

Selena eventually relaxed. Regardless, the general manager had already mentioned this to James Drake

and Miss Tanya; Timothy should have known about this much earlier.

She did not know why Timothy brought up this matter.

Selena smiled embarrassingly. “Yes. Young Master Drake should’ve known about this since long ago,

right? The general manager already approved it. Your father and Miss Tanya also knew about it. They

had visited the site and were satisfied with the materials as the quality was good!”

Timothy smiled and walked closer to Selena. “We’re definitely satisfied. I didn’t say that we’re not. This

isn’t about the materials!”

“If there’s nothing wrong with the material, what is it?” Selena turned around with a frown and reached for

a paper cup. “Young Master Drake, you must’ve drank lots of wine. Let me pour you a cup of warm

water.”

Selena bent over at the water dispenser and fetched him a cup of warm water. Her alluring bent figure in

her formal dress made Young Master Drake feel rather thirsty. He could not help but swallow his saliva.

This woman grew increasingly seductive the more he looked at her.

Timothy’s imaginations began to wander as he continued to look at Selena.

With the cup of warm water at hand, Selena turned around toward him only to be stunned at his rather

suggestive gaze.

Timothy immediately looked away when he saw Selena turning around. With a grin on his face, he said,

“Miss Selena is too generous, but it’s not about the material. I know several material-supplying

companies that have better branding, a longer history, and their quality is quite nice. The materials they

have are indisputably reliable!” He paused here before continuing, “If that’s the case, I wonder why Miss

Selena chose the Taylor family without even considering these companies? Is it possible that you have

some hidden, selfish motives?”

Selena was slightly nervous when Timothy asked her this; this matter caused her quite the discomfort for

quite some time. Although the Taylor family was not bad, Sonia had filtered the other material suppliers

and did not pass them to her.

She knew about this, but she chose to ignore it for the Taylor family’s sake and signed the contract.

She never expected that Young Master Drake would purposely talk about this after the general manager,

Miss Tanya and James had agreed to it.

Did the Drakes want to go back on their word?

This was the assumption and worry that plagued Selena.

After all, this project could help the Taylor family earn quite a revenue. It could guarantee their profit and

healthy business development for the next two years.

The project had just started not long ago. It would be troublesome for the Taylor family if the Drakes

changed their minds.

“Young Master Drake, are you saying there are several companies better than the Taylor family? I’m not

very clear about this as Supervisor Neal is the one who did the research. In the end, she’s the one who

compiled all pieces of information and handed them to me. Regardless, I felt that only the Taylor family is

the most suitable one among all the companies she handed to me!”

With a smile on her face, Selena passed the cup of water to Timothy and added, “The agreement was

signed and approved by the general manager. This proves that the Taylor family is entirely capable of

such an important role.”

Chapter 754

“Is that so?” Timothy walked over to receive the cup of warm water, and he took another step closer and

moved closer to Selena.

Selena’s faint body odor, coupled with her perfume, stimulated Timothy.

“Oh my!” His hand slightly trembled when he took over the cup, causing water from the cup to spill on

Selena’s chest.

“Ah!” Selena yelped in shock, although the water was not too hot.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to. Let me help you wipe that, Miss Selena.” Timothy was prepared

for this. As he stretched out his hand toward her, Selena snapped.

“Go away! I can wipe it myself!” Selena was shocked at his advances and took a few steps backing away

from him. Timothy was so in taking advantage of her, his hands merely a centimeter away from her attire.

Selena instantly took out several pieces of tissue paper and dabbed them at the soaked area on her

clothes.

Timothy was rather disappointed at Selena’s quick thinking, but it did not erase his excitement at her

flustered state. “Allow me to help you with that, Miss Selena,” he urged once more, “I’m good at it!”

“Young Master Drake, what are you talking about? Kindly respect our boundaries or I’ll get angry!”

Selena’s face darkened when she discovered his true, dark intentions. She then angrily added, “If it’s

work purposes you’re concerned with, I’ll make my reports. If it’s about anything else, please immediately

leave. I’m not this kind of woman!”

It did not enrage Timothy when Selena vocally stated her stance; he merely smirked. “Miss Selena, stop

acting. Do you think that I don’t know what kind of woman you are? You didn’t know your husband when

you first met him, yet you married him the day you know him and slept with him right after. You even

have a child with him!”

Timothy looked at Selena in disdain. “You slept with a man you just knew. How’s it possible for you to not

be charmed by a handsome and rich young master like me? I’ve no intentions of marrying you; I’m not

interested in married women like you. Still, you’ve got a nice figure, and you’ve got a rather beautiful

face. What say you accompany me for a short while?”

Selena almost fainted due to anger, but she maintained her icy-cold expression and she scoffed, “Young

Master Drake, you must’ve had too many drinks tonight. I’ll take this as you speaking nonsense, and I

won’t argue with you!”

Selena then pointed at the door. “Now, please get out and stop disturbing me at my workplace. Your

image would be destroyed if others knew about what happened here today!”

Selena had a point; Timothy was usually a gentleman in front of others. His actions toward her might

very well be due to alcohol influence.

Still, he did not seem drunk, though he might have drank slightly more than usual.

Chapter 755

“You’re a woman! Do you think I, a man, would be afraid if others knew about this if you’re not? Also,

who’d believe that you’re innocent? Won’t others say that you’re the one who seduced me for your

monthly salary of one million? Who’s in power here: you or me?” Timothy laughed and added, “You think

about that, Selena Taylor, and you think it through. I, Timothy Drake, will have you now. You have no

choice but to obey me!”

“In your dreams!” Selena was downright livid; she never thought Timothy could be so evil.

“You’d do well to think it thoroughly. If you don’t do as I say, I’ll terminate the contract with the Taylor

family. The compensation is only around one hundred million, nothing too much, and we can afford it!”

Timothy smiled coldly. “Secondly, I fired your husband, and he’s out of job now. What’ll happen to your

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

family’s expenses now that he lost his monthly salary of twenty million?”

“What?! You…you fired him?!” Selena was taken aback by Timothy’s wicked words. This Young Master

Drake was too much of a pain. She never thought he had that sadistic streak in him.

“Don’t be so agitated! I haven’t finished speaking!” Timothy smirked with an extremely definite expression

on his face. “Think about it: You guys live in a big villa now with an entire family waiting for your support,

and you’ve got bodyguards and workers you need to pay too.

“I fired your husband because he acted against me, and if you don’t submit to me today, I’ll fire you too.

You purposely signed the agreement with the Taylor family for their wellbeing. I can fire you based on this

point alone!”

“You evil man! Young Master Drake, I never thought you’d be such a despicable man!” Selena gritted her

teeth in anger. She never thought Timothy would hold the matter against him.

She used to think that Timothy was a kind person like Miss Tanya. After all, siblings usually shared quite

a few characteristics.

Apart from that, Timothy usually looked like a gentleman. She had no idea the man before her would

have such a foul, wretched heart.

“Oh, I’m despicable?” Timothy laughed coldly after he heard what Selena said. “You’re making a false

counter-charge. If it wasn’t for us Drakes, do you think that your husband would’ve had such a great job?

Do you think that you’d have a great job? You guys were poor people looked down on by the Taylor

family and others. You have the life you have now because you guys met us and befriended us. How

dare you say that I’m despicable!”

Timothy merely shrugged when he noted Selena’s silence and cold expression. “Don’t you worry about it.

As long as you promise me that you’ll serve me well this one time, I wouldn’t tell others about this. I won’t

rescind the contract with the Taylor family, and you get to keep your job. A one-million salary is barely

enough for your family!”

Selena gritted her teeth and was so angry that her face turned pale.

Timothy was pleased when he saw her rooted where she stood, wordlessly; he assumed Selena was

complying due to the fear he instilled in her. After all, any other woman would know what choice to make,

right?

He walked forward and pulled Selena into his arms. His face leaned closer to hers as though he was

about to kiss her. “Miss Selena, just succumb to me. You lose nothing. After all, I’m the Drake family’s

young master, son of Eastfield’s wealthiest man. No rich young masters in the entire Eastfield would dare

compete with me. Moreover, your husband won’t know about this if you don’t tell him, understand?”

“You bastard, let go of me!” Selena was so angry that she resisted Timothy’s embrace and fought back.

Chapter 756

Timothy laughed at Selena’s struggle. “And why should I let you go? Just give in to me!” He pushed her

onto the table with all his might, ready to grab her.

“Go away!” In her fear and panic, Selena kicked Timothy right in between his legs when he was close

enough.

“Argh!” Timothy yelled in pain and fell onto his knees in a squatting position.

Selena instantly shot up as Timothy fell, merely sparing him a glare as she rushed toward the door.

“Young Master Drake, you bastard! I quit!” Selena ripped open the door and rushed out right after.

…

“What’s going on? Manager Taylor ran out of her office!” Employees were startled to see Selena rushing

out of her office.

“Did he fail? Manager Taylor’s hair seems to be ruffled up a little, but she opened the door and ran

straight out. She seemed to have just cried, too,” said Felicia dumbfoundedly. “This doesn’t seem right.

This shouldn’t be happening if they have something going behind the scenes. Shouldn’t she be very

happy?”

“How would I know? Let’s go check it out.” Sonia immediately walked with Felicia toward Selena’s office.

They peered into the office and discovered Young Master Drake on the floor: he had his hands over his

private parts as he hissed in pain.

“How dare Selena Taylor do this?! What should Young Master Drake do if he can’t bear children in the

future?” Sonia said angrily. She immediately went in with Felicia to assist Young Master Drake.

Meanwhile, Selena rushed to the parking lot. She pulled the door to her car open and went inside before

crying out her frustrations. It took a while before she could reach out for a tissue paper to wipe her tears,

and it was only after that was she able to calm herself down before she made her way home.

…

jackie was smoking in their yard when he saw Selena’s car entering the compound and was parked.

“Honey, you’re back.” jackie walked over to his wife with a small smile on his face.

“Yes,” came Selena’s simple reply and went to sit with him quietly.

“Honey, I quit my job,” jackie started, his smile bitter as he spoke. “But truthfully, I was fired by Young

Master Drake. No need to worry, though. Our family will still have money to rely on.”

Selena listened on and instantly recalled how she was almost taken advantage of by Timothy. Her nose

twitched and her eyes turned slightly red. She looked at jackie upsettingly and said, “Honey, I… I’ve also

quit my job. We are both out of jobs! What should we do?”

“You quit, too?” The news stunned jackie, but he could sense his wife’s unstable emotions. “What

actually happened?” he prodded.

“That bastard Timothy Drake came looking for me in my office after he had some drinks. He even

threatened me with the Taylor family’s agreement about sourcing materials and the fact that he’d fire me.

He wants to take advantage of me and even forced himself on me when I refused him!

“Thankfully, I reacted fast and kicked his crotch at the given time. I managed to escape right after that.”

Face written with fear, Selena looked at her husband and blurted, “What should I do? I’d be in so much

trouble if my mother knows I lost my job!”

jackie was livid at the details his wife told him. “F*ck… Is Timothy Drake looking for a death wish? I don’t

give a damn if he does things to me, but how dare he go looking for you at your office? You didn’t even

do anything to him!” jackie shot up from his seat and threw the cigarette butt onto the ground before

stepping on it. His hands then tightened, balled into fists.

Chapter 757

“I’m going to get an explanation from him,” snapped jackie.

“Don’t! This is the Drake family we’re talking about here!” Selena was extremely frightened when she

saw jackie’s impulsive look and took his hands into hers. “Honey, don’t go. It’s the Drake family, and it’s

not a good idea to offend them. Apart from that, he didn’t get to touch me inappropriately. While he did

forcibly embraced me, I managed to break free!”

“That means nothing to me. What would’ve happened if you failed to run away in time? The Drake family

has to give me an explanation! How dare he try to take advantage of you!” jackie’s fists tightened even

more. He turned to Selena and, carrying her in his arms bridal-style, walked toward the car when he saw

her hands still on his.

“What are you doing? I asked you to not go there!” Selena was flustered yet worried as he held her up

like a princess, though it did not erase her anxiety. After all, the Drake family was a family that even first-

class aristocratic families dared not offend. Could jackie succeed alone?

“Don’t you worry; I won’t kill Tanya’s brother as a sign of respect for our friendship. However, if he doesn’t

kneel and apologize, I’ll show him no mercy!” jackie still had a darkened expression on his face. He

placed Selena at the passenger’s seat before he went and sat at the driver’s seat.

“Honey, just let it go. I know you love me, but I don’t want to offend the Drake family! It’s not good to have

another enemy,” coaxed Selena in an attempt to persuade jackie. She did not want him to act irrationally.

“Apart from that, they’re the Drakes! They might have lots of masters with them!”

“Don’t you worry. Their masters are no match for your husband. He’s far more powerful than any of them

combined.” Adamant and indifferent, jackie stepped on the gas pedal and the car soon raced out of the

villa.

“Why are they going out again? Didn’t they just come back a while ago?” Several bodyguards who

strolled around the perimeter not far away wondered what was happening when they saw the situation.

At the same time, they felt jealous as they saw how jackie carried Selena in his arms.

“You’re so hard-headed! Why won’t you listen to my advice?!” Selena relented once she knew it was a

point for no return for her husband. He wanted to confront the Drake family! The Drakes might turn

hostile against them if jackie went over and caused trouble!

More importantly, how could jackie oppose the entire Drake family’s masters?

…

Young Master Drake struggled in pain for quite some time before he could even stand up. He then

walked out embarrassingly and returned to the Drake family mansion.

He was more than ready to go to bed as the drinks made him feel dizzy. The last thing he expected was

for James, Tanya, and several masters of the Drake family to wait for him when he entered the villa’s

living room.

“Father, Tanya, why are you guys here? Why aren’t you guys asleep yet?” Timothy’s face darkened as

he sensed something was amiss when he noted several Drake family elders were present.

This only happened when something important had to be announced. Coincidentally, he had fired jackie,

and it seemed that his sister had relayed the news to them.

James’ face darkened and questioned Timothy, “You know what you’ve done today, right?”

Timothy was utterly displeased. “Of course I do. I fired a mere bodyguard, no? Did you have to get a

crowd here like this? Why did you ask the elders to come out?” came his somewhat apathetic reply as he

sat down on the sofa.

James laughed bitterly. “What did I tell you? Did you ignore what I’ve told you? I asked you to not offend

jackie and stay on his good side! Why didn’t you listen?!” James was downright livid at him and was

close to fainting in his anger. His son made the worst move possible with his deplorable attitude.

Chapter 758

Timothy, at that moment, recalled how a marshal failed to defeat jackie. With a guilty conscience, he

blurted, “I didn’t know jackie could be so powerful! I thought he was just a head commander, unworthy of

our family’s respect and admiration. I only knew this when a marshal from the Turner family failed to

defeat him, and that was only after I fired him!”

“I’ve told you long before that he’s considerably on par with Kings of War. It doesn’t matter even if he’s

just a one-star King of War! More importantly, he’s well acquainted with the Goddess of War. Can’t you

see that? The Goddess of War willingly interacted with me because of our relationship with jackie!”

James grew increasingly angry the more he thought about it.

“So what? I can just look for them tomorrow and ask them to return to work as usual!” Timothy had no

choice but to obey his father after he thought about it. After all, many of the Drakes eyed him sharply and

none went up to defend him.

“Think about his temperament! Do you think that he’s short of money if he really is a King of War? The

country would’ve given him several tens of billions as his reward. We were extremely lucky that

somebody like him was willing to work as our bodyguard. He agreed to work for us because he was

bored with nothing to do.

“Do you think he’d still agree to it now?” James laughed. He knew jackie’s identity was not as simple as

how he portrayed it, but jackie managed to keep himself incredibly low-profile and seldom exposed his

true combat abilities to the public. This caused others to believe he was a mere head commander.

“How’s that possible? And does he really have that much money?” Timothy’s face darkened; he made a

huge mistake if that was true. Still, as he recalled how ordinary jackie was and how he promised to be

their bodyguard proactively, he still felt that his father’s beliefs were too overboard. How could such a rich

person agree to be a bodyguard?

“Bullcrap. He’s definitely a King of War, so it’s only natural he has a lot of money!” scoffed James with a

cold expression on his face.

“Why would he willingly work as a bodyguard if he has so much money? If it was me, I wouldn’t work as

a bodyguard. I don’t want to be looked down at by others!” Timothy frowned. He glanced at Tanya who

was beside him, and his eyes lit up. “Unless… The reason this guy works as our bodyguard isn’t for

money but for women. I think he likes my sister. If that’s the case, it’s very easy to get into his good

books. We can just marry Tanya to him, right?”

Timothy tried to find ways around the matter.

Though it took a while, Tanya noticed something peculiar in Timothy’s replies and said, “Wait, Brother.

Did you say ‘them’ just now? What does that mean?”

Timothy scratched his head in embarrassment. “The thought of jackie talking back at me plagued me

after I drank some wine… So I fired his wife in retaliation.”

“What?!” James’ chest heaved in anger when he heard this. “You… You! It’s understandable if you

committed a mistake once, but how dare you make them one after another! You’re ridiculous! Even if

jackie talked back to you, how could you fire his wife too?!”

“I… I told you! I was just unhappy at that moment!”

Chapter 759

Timothy tried to find an excuse for his actions.

“Aren’t you afraid of offending him? Let me tell you this: If you end up genuinely offending him, I… I can’t

even save you!” James was so angry that he was at a loss for words. He had one son, and he turned out

to be this.

“Impossible! Are you joking? We’re a first-class aristocratic family, and we have so many masters here

with us! While I admit jackie’s good, I don’t believe we’d lose if everyone fights him as a group,” came

Timothy’s somewhat apathetic reply. He did not believe jackie would be that terrifying.

James glanced at Timothy and announced coldly, “Oh, that’s right. We’re waiting for you here because

we need to tell you something. I feel that you’re out of focus recently, so I’ve visited South City Group

only to find out that it’s been losing money. Because of this, South City Group will be managed by your

sister, Tanya starting from tomorrow. I suppose you can have a breather and a break of sorts.”

Timothy wondered if he had heard his father wrongly and looked at James dumbfoundedly. “What? Did I

hear that right, Father? Did you just say South City Group?”

In Timothy’s point of view, Tanya was just a child and it was difficult for her to bear such great

responsibility. Apart from that, he was the one who managed South City Group all this while, thus he

believed no one should interfere with his business. South City Group represented half the Drake family

group’s businesses, and the ability to manage this group represented the person’s identity in the Drake

family.

It was because of this that Timothy had always been extremely proud of himself. He was the subject of

people’s envious looks whenever he walked outside because the Drake family relied on him to manage

their businesses.

While he also managed several smaller companies, those companies were nothing when compared to

South City Group.

“Yes, you heard right. South City Group,” James said indifferently. “While your sister tends to shop quite

often, I observed the companies she managed and they’re doing quite well. I believe your sister would do

a better job than you if I hand South City Group to her!”

“Father, are you joking?” Timothy was still in disbelief. “Tanya… Tanya is just a young child. How could

she be more experienced than me at business management? Apart from that, I’ve been managing South

City Group all this time. I’m aware we’ve started losing money during these few months, but it’s

temporary. We’ve raked up quite the fortune years before this. Do you not see the success I’ve

accomplished?”

He stood up and got increasingly agitated. “You want to change the higher management just because the

loss we experience these two to three months? Aren’t you afraid that Tanya would fail at managing the

place?”

James laughed him off before he replied, “Don’t you worry. I’ve thought about it and discussed it with

several higher-ups many times before I made this decision. You’re definitely unsuitable to continue

working as South City Group’s highest management with your current situation and status!”

Suddenly, Harvey ran into the room with several other bodyguards. “Master, Master! Something bad is

happening!” There was a deep frown on his face as he spoke. “Big Brother… No, jackie is here with his

wife, and he wants an explanation from us. If he’s not satisfied with our explanation, he…he’d make his

move!”

Chapter 760

“He… He’s too brash! What does he mean by ‘make his move’? Father, listen to him. His actions are a

disrespect to the Drake family!” Timothy sucked in a deep breath when he heard what the bodyguards

were saying about jackie. Admittingly, he was scared. Did Selena tell jackie what happened in the office?

He first recalled the fact that he did not manage to take advantage of Selena. It did not matter if Selena

was embarrassed or she had the intention of actually manipulating the Drake family; she would not have

told jackie about what happened between them.

The last thing Timothy expected was for jackie to look for him, and that meant big trouble.

Because of this, he had to provoke the relationship between his father and jackie.

“He’s doing too much. This is threatening our Drake family!” One of the Drake family’s masters was

displeased. This master’s fighting abilities were much stronger than Spectre. He feared no marshals and

was able to fight with Kings of War.

This master was the first one to stand up against jackie’s threats.

“Yes, what Elder Gordon says makes sense. This guy always acts like this, and we should put him in his

place!” Timothy was relieved that someone shared his stance in the matter, and it was someone powerful

to boot.

“How dare you agree to the master? He’s brave enough to say it because he’s got the power to back it

up!” Tanya glared at his brother before looking at James. “Father, what should we do now? It seems that

jackie is unhappy about Timothy firing his wife. He wouldn’t have come here if it wasn’t for this matter.”

“Tanya, what you’re doing here is uplifting others and destroying your own. How would we know that

Elder Gordon isn’t his match without even attempting anything?” snapped Timothy.

“Yes, Miss Tanya. Are you looking down on us masters, or do you place too much faith in jackie?” Elder

Gordon was slightly unhappy. He was considered one of the best masters in the Drake family though he

had never fought with jackie. Tanya’s words blatantly meant she looked down on them and stated that

they were not jackie’s opponents.

“Elder Gordon, don’t make a move without my order. jackie is here asking for an explanation, and he

didn’t tell us straightforwardly what he wanted to do. This means that there are ways to settle this!”

James thought about it and said, “Let’s go and discuss it with him. It might work if we apologize and ask

them to return to work tomorrow.”

Many people nodded and they followed James outside.

…

James and his company eventually arrived at the mansion’s front door. jackie and his wife, Selena, stood

right outside in silence.

As everyone gathered, Tanya was the first to walk forward and offered her apologies. “ jackie, I heard

that my brother fired Sister Selena in anger. I’m very sorry for that,” Tanya spoke solemnly. “My brother

tends to speak nonsense whenever he’s drunk. He was just in his feelings, so please don’t take him

seriously.”

“Indeed. Timothy was angry, so whatever he said was only out of his emotions. Go back, rest, and come

back for work tomorrow.” James was pleased with how understanding his daughter was, and jackie might

reconsider his actions after he heard Tanya’s sincere words. After all, was it not petty to be calculative

with a drunk person?

“Come on, jackie, let’s just leave it at that.”

Chapter 761

Selena was slightly afraid when she saw that many people in front of her. Most of the bodyguards were

also there. Soon, there were one to two hundred people at the Drake family’s side. She immediately

persuaded jackie.

However, jackie still stood there and did not move. He looked at Timothy coldly and said, “Timothy, come

over, kneel, and apologize to my wife. Kowtow three times and I will let things slide. If not, you’ll regret it

when I make my move!”

“Bastard, aren’t you being too much?!” Elder Gordon could not handle it anymore. He was originally

cranky so he walked two steps forward, looked at jackie, and said, “This is the Drake family! Do you

know who Timothy is? He’s the eldest young master of our family! It’s fine to directly address him by his

name, but, how dare you ask someone as honorable as him to kneel and kowtow to you! You’re being

really arrogant!”

jackie looked at this old man coldly before saying. “I’m speaking to Timothy so please don’t interrupt our

conversation!”

“You…” Elder Gordon was extremely angry and held his hands into fists. “Sure. They all mentioned that

you are strong and since you dare act so presumptuously in front of the Drake family mansion, let me try

you!”

“Elder Gordon, stop!” James immediately stopped him.

He smiled at jackie after Elder Gordon stopped. “ jackie, my son really acted impulsive after several

drinks. I hope you can understand him!” James paused here before continuing. “How about this. You

guys can come back for work and I will pay you double your salary next month. Apart from that, I will pay

you one hundred million as compensation. How does that sound?”

As the richest man in Eastfield, James had already made a huge compromisation by saying this.

“Master Drake, I’m sorry but what happened today cannot be solved with money. If it wasn’t because the

Drake family treated me well and I consider Miss Tanya as my best friend, everybody here would have

died, and you would be waiting for your bodies to be collected!” jackie raised his hand and pointed at the

people in front of him. His tone was plain but his words were extremely domineering.

“Honey…” Selena was speechless. She knew something like this was going to happen with her

husband’s character. The Drake family had already taken such a huge step back but jackie still refused

to back away.

“You f*cker!” Elder Gordon could not hold it back any longer. He forgot James’s instructions, stepped

forward, and rushed toward jackie with his hands balled into fists.

jackie curled his lips into a cold smile when he saw how the other party initiated the attack. He balled his

hands into fists and punched toward the opponent too.

With a slightly dull bang, Elder Gordon flew outward. He flew several meters away before stepping on

the ground and stabilizing his body.

“You can’t take such a small amount of my force. How dare you act arrogantly in front of me?” jackie

glanced at the opponent in disdain. He had a kingly aura and a contempt for the world as he spoke.

Elder Gordon was shocked. jackie’s punch seemed simple but the power in it was so terrifying that it

threw him into the air while jackie was still standing there firmly.

What jackie said also caused him to be afraid!

Chapter 762

”Elder Gordon, stop! Are you refusing to listen to me?” James also noticed that Elder Gordon was

definitely not jackie’s opponent.

However, he had already made a move. After his failure, he could only stand there and glare at jackie.

After all, he might die very miserably if he rushed forward and fought jackie. If he stopped right now, he

would lose his face.

Elder Gordon humphed coldly after he heard what James said. “Young man, I’ll bear with it today

because my master asked me to. However, this is the Drake family mansion, if you dare act rampantly, I

will not hold back anymore!” Elder Gordon retreated after he said that.

The corners of Timothy’s mouth twitched several times. He finally noticed that if Elder Gordon acted

alone, he was definitely not jackie’s opponent. Apart from that, Elder Gordon was someone who loved to

protect his dignity. He left these words just so he could exit with honor.

“Alright, jackie. How about this? It’s fine if you and Miss Selena don’t want to come back to work. This

time, my son was the one who acted impulsively. I will give you eight hundred million. How about that?

Let’s agree to let it go! ” After thinking about it, James gritted his teeth and proactively said.

In his opinion, this amount of compensation was already more than enough. Apart from that, he just

found out that his son fired the two of them not too long ago. He was slightly unhappy when jackie did

not want to let this go.

However, he knew that he could not offend jackie, so he could only hope that he could spend money to

avoid disaster.

“Honey, why don’t we just let it go. Eight hundred million is already a lot!” Selena bit her lips and

persuaded jackie.

It was a pity as jackie still sneered. “Master Drake, I would have killed your son if it weren’t for Tanya! My

request is simple, he needs to kneel down and apologize to my wife. He also needs to slap himself ten

times. Otherwise, I will take action!”

” jackie, aren’t you asking for too much?” Even Tanya got angry. She looked at jackie in disbelief. “My

brother shouldn’t have fired you nor your wife. After all, your wife did nothing wrong. No matter what, my

brother is the young master of the Drake family. How should my brother continue living his life if he

kneels down and apologizes to your wife? You even asked him to slap himself in the face.”

” jackie, please consider this. Eight hundred million is really a lot, why don’t you think about it again?”

Yvonne bit her lips. She did not expect jackie to make this matter such a huge ordeal. This was

somewhat unlike the jackie she knew.

However, jackie sneered and said, “there is nothing to consider. It doesn’t matter if Young Master

Timothy fired my wife. However, he tried to take advantage of my wife after several drinks. He went to

the office, locked the door, and tried to forcefully take advantage of my wife. If my wife hadn’t found the

opportunity to kick him and escaped, she might have suffered!”

Having said that, jackie looked at Yvonne and questioned her. “Miss Yvonne, would you easily forgive

such a person if you were in such a situation? If someone harassed you and gave you some money to

silence you, would you be able to forgive that person?”

“How’s this possible? Brother, you…you actually treated sister Selena…” Tanya finally realized that

jackie’s anger was not just about Timothy firing his wife. It turned out that her brother actually went to the

company alone and tried to rape jackie’s wife.

If this happened to another man, they might have been afraid of the Drake family or they might have

chosen money to avoid disaster.

However, if it was a burly and hardcore man like jackie, it was impossible to ask for his forgiveness.

“He…he’s talking nonsense!”

Chapter 763

Timothy was so frightened. He could only grit his teeth and refused to admit to it when he saw so many

people looking at him.

“Nonsense?” This time, even Selena could not stand it and looked at Timothy bitterly. “Timothy, I didn’t

expect you to be a coward who dared not admit to what you did. If you say so, why don’t we head to the

company and ask the people there? We have so many employees, do you think they didn’t hear

anything?”

Timothy’s face instantly turned blue and purple when he heard what she said. Yes, it was definitely

difficult to explain what happened previously.

Originally, he could tell people in the company that it was Selena who wanted to seduce him. Many

people would have believed what he said. Now that jackie has brought his wife to his house, nobody

would have believed him if he used this excuse. That would be extremely troublesome.

“You…you bastard!” James finally realized what a nasty thing his son had done. He stepped forward and

slapped Timothy with all his might. “I’m really disappointed in you. I thought that you had just fired the

two of them, I didn’t expect you to try to force Miss Selena. No wonder jackie is so angry!”

Elder Gordon, who originally felt that jackie had gone overboard, finally realized that he was almost

manipulated by Timothy. If he was in this position and his woman was almost raped by somebody else,

he would have killed that person early on.

As for jackie’s action of asking Timothy to kneel down and apologize while slapping himself ten times

was actually very kind of jackie. He did this because of his history with the Drake family and he was

giving Tanya face.

Timothy, who was slapped in the cheeks, covered his face in anger. “Father, you…you actually hit me

because of this? I admit that I was impulsive at that time. I had too many drinks and Selena looked really

pretty. She even had a short skirt on. Isn’t that very normal? Besides, I was unsuccessful in my attempt!”

“unsuccessful? If you succeeded, none of you here would leave Eastfield alive!” jackie sneered after he

heard this, and walked step by step toward Timothy.

His eyes were filled with a murderous aura. The aura was the same one that sent shivers down

everyone’s spine on the battlefield.

“Do you still feel that you did nothing wrong? I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it!” jackie

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

approached step by step and his voice was very low. He had a scary and invisible aura around him that

made people feel repressed.

“You fool, why aren’t you kneeling down and apologizing yet? Hurry up and do what jackie said! Kneel

down and apologize to Miss Selena. Hurry up and slap yourself!” James was very frightened. The other

masters in the Drake Family stood there and were all frightened too. They knew that jackie was about to

take action.

After all, Timothy did make a mistake this time and they were all embarrassed to make moves.

“I won’t apologize! I’m the young master of the Drake family, why should I apologize to them?!” Timothy

gritted his teeth and looked at jackie. He did not believe that jackie would dare take action. After all, the

Drake family was the biggest known power in this province.

jackie directly jumped up and kicked Timothy on his crotch. Timothy flew outward.

The next second, Timothy hit the ground far away and fainted.

Chapter 764

Timothy’s pants seeped with fresh blood. It was a frightening sight.

The corners of James’s mouth twitched. His features were twisted into a grimace, but he did not let a

single word slip from him.

The entire area was completely silent—so silent that you could hear a pin drop!

This was the Young Master of the Drake family, and yet jackie had lashed out against him all the same.

Now he just lay there, and no one knew if he was still alive.

“Master…”

Spectre stepped forward, frowning. He did not know what to say.

He knew that James’s heart was filled with excruciating pain.

“Come forward all you like, if you wish to avenge him. But I’m afraid that you won’t be able to bear the

consequences once you make the first move!” jackie said, expression stony.

Although James’s insides were twisted with agony, he forced himself to smile. “It’s all right, jackie, so

long as you let off some steam! Just say the word if you need any more compensation!”

jackie gave a wan smile. “No need!”

He wheeled around and left, taking Selena with him. “Don’t worry. Your son isn’t dead. But I can’t say for

certain if he’ll be producing any heirs in the future.”

Selena glanced behind her shoulder, afraid that the fighters and the bodyguards employed by the Drake

family would rush forward. She only released a sigh of relief once they got onto the car and drove off.

“Are you sure Timothy won’t be rendered infertile from that kick of yours, Dear? James only has him as

the only son, after all. Won’t he try to take revenge in the future? I know you’re venting your anger, but

I’m still afraid!”

Selena frowned, her expression morphing to that of concern.

jackie glanced at her and managed a mirthless smile. “Don’t worry. James is smart enough. He won’t

cause trouble for me even if his son can no longer produce heirs for their family. I’ve already been kind

enough to him by sparing his son’s life. No man has the right to touch my wife. You suffered so much for

me and our daughter’s sake. You paid the price for so many years. I won’t let you go through any more

humiliation!”

Warmth filled Selena as she heard him speak such earnest words. She pursed her lips before she spoke,

“All right then. I just never expected that you would have no fear even with the Drake family! This is far

beyond my expectations!”

jackie did not know whether to laugh or cry after he heard that. “Dear, would you be touched or

frightened if all nine of the Gods of War came to your birthday party?”

Selena went speechless for a while when she heard that. Then she rolled her eyes. “What are you

saying? It’ll be an utmost honor even if only Lana came. How can all nine of the Gods of War come?

Besides, they’re so busy, and every second of theirs is extremely precious. How could they have the time

to spare for me?”

Here, Selena seemed to think of something, then she said jokingly, “Don’t tell me that you’re the master

of the nine Gods of War? Each of the Gods of War is strong in their own way, and they’re extremely

powerful. If they even had a master, he would not even be human!”

jackie gave a curious expression. Did his wife just tell him that he was not human right to his face?

He gave a brittle smile and asked, “What is he then, if not human?”

“A god!”

Selena spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, “What kind of a person would a master of the nine Gods of War be

if not a god? But of course, there’s no one like that. In the future, don’t simply joke that you’re the master

of the Gods of War. It’ll be troublesome if someone were to write a report about it and spread the news

about you.”

Here, Selena drew a finger across her throat. “You’re writing yourself a death sentence if you anger the

Gods of War,” she said. “It won’t get any better just because you’re good friends with Lana. A joke like

this is too frightening!”

jackie placed his hand on her thigh when he heard that, flashing a small smile. “All right. I’ll listen to you,

dear. I won’t claim that they’re my disciples anymore, okay? But I still hope that they can come over and

celebrate on the day of your birthday!”

“You hope?”

Chapter 765

Selena did not know whether to laugh or cry. “What use is there in hoping? Why should I have hope if

they’re not going to come!”

“Do you really want them to come? Then I should invite them over!”

jackie smiled and spoke in a confident tone, “I believe that they’ll definitely preserve my dignity!”

“My goodness. You’re speaking as though you had plenty of dignity, to begin with!”

Selena rolled her eyes at him. Then she noticed that his hand was on her thigh. She picked it up, cheeks

flushing. “Drive properly and don’t put your hands everywhere. Seriously!”

“Looks like you’re embarrassed!”

jackie chuckled. “I’ll place it everywhere when it’s bedtime. How about that?”

The pink on Selena’s cheeks deepened. “I can’t be bothered with you, you pervert! Now we’re both

jobless, and you’ve offended the Drake family. I just pray that James really won’t come for us, like what

you said!”

“Don’t worry. He would have done something just now if he wanted to take revenge! Would he have let

us leave just like that?”

They quickly arrived at the villa. After he parked the car, jackie said, “Oh, right. Let me tell you how I was

fired by Timothy!”

“Oh, yeah. I would have forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it. Timothy said that you talked against him.

What on earth happened? Weren’t you doing your job just fine for the Drake family?”

Selena immediately asked as the thought popped into her head.

“That’s because I struck big today—I won a bet worth one billion dollars just like that!”

jackie got down from the car. “So don’t worry. I earned a billion dollars today,” he said, grinning. “We’ll be

fine even if you stay at home and become a housewife. We can even go for a honeymoon when we’re

free!”

“Our child is already so big, and you’re still thinking of a honeymoon? Only you could think of something

like that!”

Selena’s heart was leaping in delight. She wound her arm around jackie’s and walked toward the villa’s

entrance. “So tell me, how did you win the billion dollars?”

“Billiards. Because…”

jackie then told everything that had transpired in the morning to Selena.

“You learned to play that fast? You’ve never played it before, but you just knew how to play once you got

into it. And you won a billion dollars?”

Shock rippled throughout Selena when she finished listening to the story.

…

At the moment in the Drake family’s residence.

After jackie left, Tanya ran over to check on Timothy, who was still unconscious. She furrowed her brows

and looked at her father. “What do we do, Dad?”

“What else can we do but to quickly take him to the hospital? If jackie says he’s not dead, he’s not dead.

We need to get him to the hospital immediately. Let’s pray that Timothy will still be able to have heirs. But

his future will be even more uncertain if we’re a second too late!”

James immediately declared before ordering his men to take his son to the hospital.

He released a sigh. “Seriously. Why would Timothy dare to do something like that? He really dug a grave

for himself!”

Chapter 766 “Master, are we really going to let this slide just like that? The young master… He’s…”

One of the fighters stepped forward and asked James.

Although he could not say that the young master did not deserve it, jackie had just brought his wife to the

Drake family’s residence and beat Young Master Drake into a pulp. Plenty of passersby outside would

have seen everything.

This was a cause of extreme humiliation for the Drake family. Fortunately, not many people had

witnessed the incident, but the Drake family’s reputation had really been trampled on.

“I really think there’s no way out of this. jackie is too strong. There’s no way to take him on by oneself—at

least for me!”

Elder Gordon finally spoke up after he thought about it. In reality, he wanted to say that it would be

useless even if all of them went for jackie at the same time. He tried to tone it down though, for the sake

of their dignity.

“It’s obvious that jackie has full confidence, judging from how he spoke just now. He’s very sure of

himself. So all we can do is to forget about this incident!”

James gave a helpless smile. “I’ve already chided Timothy so many times, but he simply refused to listen

to me. Never mind that he fired both jackie and Selena, but he actually dared to touch the latter. Ah. If it

were you, wouldn’t you think about killing him? jackie had been considering the relationship between us

from before, and his friendship with Tanya, that’s why…”

The fighters could do nothing but bob their heads in obedience when they heard him say that, keeping as

quiet as they could.

“Dad, we’re missing a procurement manager in South Hill Real Estate now that Miss Taylor has quit her

job. What do we do?”

Tanya added after she thought about it, “Besides, I’m afraid that it’ll turn awry for us if the Taylor family

continues to be in charge of that project…”

James nodded his head. “You’re right. If news of how jackie had beaten your brother up gets out, and

how we did not retaliate, the Drake family will definitely become a laughing stock. We should be stirring

up some trouble for him, after all. How about this? You take charge of South Hill Real Estate and make

Sonia take the position of procurement manager. I pray she doesn’t let me down!”

Tanya nodded her head. “I’ll get Sonia to terminate the contract with the Taylor family. And we won’t

compensate for the breach of contract either. Let’s just do that as our ‘retaliation’. It won’t be so

embarrassing for us if word of this gets out then!”

Hearing those words fall from her mouth felt like a joke. The Drake family was the strongest, richest

family in the entire Eastfield. It was extremely embarrassing that her older brother had been beaten—and

beaten into that state. This sort of retaliation was truly a joke, but it was better than nothing. It would

convey the Drake family’s stance toward the matter.

Elder Gordon considered everything carefully before he made a suggestion, “Master, why don’t we just

tell everyone that the young master’s injuries are not too serious even if they’re actually serious or if he

becomes impotent. This way, we’ll only be dissolving our cooperation with the Taylor family because he

was not too seriously injured. It won’t be that embarrassing if we put it that way.”

James thought that it made sense. “You’re right. We’ll go over to the hospital in a while and check up on

my son. His condition must be kept a secret. We’ll get the doctors to diagnose that he has mild injuries

from a fistfight. There’ll be nothing serious!”

After jackie and Selena went back, they quickly showered and went downstairs, sitting together at the

table for dinner.

“Selena, jackie has been fired by Timothy!”

Fiona smiled. “But it doesn’t matter. jackie won a billion dollars from billiards,” she said. “One whole

billion! He lost his job, but it’s great that he has a billion to his name now. We won’t have to worry about

having no money in the future! This money doesn’t belong to the entire Taylor family. It belongs to us!”

Chapter 767 Selena gave a bitter smile. “Ma, jackie already told me about this,” she said. “Actually, I’ve

been fired as well. No—I quit. I didn’t want to do it anymore!”

“What!”

The smile on Fiona’s face immediately froze. “ jackie had been fired for lashing against Young Master

Drake, and he had lashed out because of the billion dollars in the first place,” she said, stupefied. “This is

completely understandable, but why did you quit? This is an entirely different matter.”

Selena flicked her gaze between jackie and Fiona. “It’s nothing. I just don’t want to continue doing that

job any longer,” she lied, fearing that her mother would fret for her. “It’s pointless to me. More importantly,

my subordinates don’t cooperate with me, and they even talk about me behind my back!”

“You’re out of your mind, Selena. jackie doesn’t have a job now, and neither do you. Plus, your salary

was so high!”

Andrew shook his head and took a sip of wine. “But it doesn’t matter now. You’ve already quit, so now

we’ll just have to be wise with the money we have. It should be enough.”

“You’re right, Dad,” Ben chipped in, grinning. “We only need enough money to live on. We can’t be like

Ma, who only has eyes for money. We should always be satisfied with whatever we have!”

“What are you saying, you brat? What sane person would give up their chances of getting more money?

Why shouldn’t we want more, knowing that we could have more?”

Fiona glared at her son. “Besides, ten billion isn’t a lot either. It all depends on how you spend it. I heard

that a jeweler in Eastfield has recently crafted an extremely expensive necklace. It’s entirely laid with

diamonds, and more importantly, it’s one of its kind in the entire world. There’s also a huge ruby as its

main jewel. It’s absolutely gorgeous! It’s called ‘Heart of the Abyss’, or something like that anyway!”

“Really? It’s just a necklace though. No way that it’s worth more than a hundred million!”

Ben smil
