Chapter 31
Chapter 31
Just then, a crack sounded at that moment! A bone-chilling snap was suddenly heard from Gordon'sneck! It was the sound of his bones getting crushed!!
At that very moment, the whole office became so silent that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone wasterribly horrified by the sight of Gordon’s snapped neck! He was crushed to death right in front of theireyes!
Every one of the business elites inside the office became petrified and started to tremble in fear afterseeing what had happened. It was especially so for Benjamin as he passed out instantly!
Thud! Kingsley threw Gordon's dead body toward Alex and warned him coldly, "This is how you'll endup if you mess around with Reene!"
After getting struck by the dead body, Alex fell to the ground as he feared for his life with goosebumpsrunning all over his body. He pushed the corpse away hastily while screaming with all he had,"Ahhhhhh! You murderer! You murdered him!!"
"Him? That was just a piece of garbage." Wow, that’s cold. With that, Kingsley left the place with Reeneright away.
It took a distance away from Neveah Store for Reene to finally snap out of shock. "K-Kingsley, did youreally kill him?"
As her body trembled, she started to look through her purse in a flurry and hushed. "Here, take all thismoney and run away as far as possible! If the cops replace you, just say that I did it—I killed him!" Whilesaying that, she stuffed all her credit cards into his hands. "Get out of Cleapolis and live a decent life!"
Kingsley was touched by his sister’s attempt of sacrifice, but what came out of him was laughter. Hereturned the credit cards to Reene and replied gently, "Reene, don't worry. We'll be fine."
"How will that be possible? You killed Gordon! The Wynn Family won’t let you get away with it for sure!They'll use every possible way to get you executed!" Reene's eyes started to redden in her anxiety. "It'salright, Kingsley. There's no need to be afraid. Take this money and hide somewhere incognito. I'll go tojail for you. I don't think the Wynn Family will make it too hard for me."
Kingsley took a step forward and hugged her trembling body to comfort herself. "Trust me, Reene.Everything will be fine."
Reene started to calm down in his wide and muscular embrace. "Really? Everything's gonna be okay?Please… don't be this reckless anymore…" While wiping the tears off her face, she continued, "Just letSerena do all the killing stuff…"
"Got it." Kingsley gently ran his finger through her fringe and tucked it behind her ears. "If things likethis happen again, get hold of me immediately, okay?"
A helpless Reene sighed. "What’s there for you to do even if I—"
"How much more do you need?" he asked calmly. "I have money, so I can pay off the balance."
She shook her head and forced a bitter smile. "The deficit is too much… The Jacob Family haswithdrawn the fund and canceled all business cooperation, leaving the operation of Neveah Store tocome to a halt. If I was to pay off the deficit, I'll need at least a few million. But if I want to cover the loss
in the future, I'll probably need more than ten million in total…"
Kingsley teased her with a grin. "Just ten million? I can pay for it!"
"Don't joke with me. Even the Wynn Family would have a hard time taking out so much money atonce." Reene sighed again. "I don't wish to get ten million at once, but I just hope to get a breather anda chance to help Neveah Store get through this hardship gradually. Unfortunately, out of all theinvestment companies in Cleapolis I’ve gone to, none of them is willing to help me, especially theHumming Group. They even tore my project proposal in front of me and had the security kick me out…"
Kingsley's eyes instantly turned cold at once after hearing that. "Did they really kick you outphysically?!"
Reene wore a mournful look and answered, "Yep, but it's just a slight kick. I’m alright."
"Well. Very well," he said with a cold tone. "I'll make the Humming Group pay that deficit, then." Heactually wanted to use his own money to pay it off, but now, he wanted them to pay the price!
"Reene, why don’t you head back for a rest?" Kingsley tried to suppress his anger and said, "I'm goingto the Humming Group now! Let’s see if they’d kick me out too!"
Shock took over Reene’s body as she immediately shouted, "Kingsley, you’re letting rage take overyour head again! We can't afford to mess with the Humming Group!"
Just as Kingsley was about to open his mouth and rebut her, nothing came out of it. He swallowed thewords he wanted to say, for he knew that she was worried about him. Instead, he tried to comfort her."Okay, fine. I'll listen to you. I won't go to the Humming Group, but I'm going to replace my comrade."
Reene finally calmed down and nodded in agreement. "Okay. Head home early then."
"Of course." As soon as she left, his face suddenly darkened; the next thing he knew, he was alreadydriving straight to the Humming Group.
The Humming Group was the biggest investment company of Cleapolis and its president—CharlieDean—had been at the top of the Cleapolis' Billionaires List for a few consecutive years; therefore, hewas definitely filthy rich!
There was a reason why he refused to fund Reene, but it was not because of their fear toward theJacob Family; he had just simply looked down on Neveah Store. He had numerous projects under hiscompany that were comparably similar to Neveah Store, hence, he did not bother to earn that extralittle money from Neveah.
As soon as Kingsley arrived at the Humming Group, he took the elevator and went straight to the topfloor of the building, striding toward the president's office thereafter.
"Hey! Hey! Who are you?" A female secretary in a luxury suit walked up to him and asked him rudely,"Which department are you from? This area is exclusively for the president!"
A frowning Kingsley answered, "I'm representing the Neveah Store to meet Charlie Dean."
"Neveah Store?" She wore a contemptuous look after hearing his answer. "Why did they send anotherperson here? The woman who came here previously was hit and kicked by the security; her shoeseven fell off while running away! Are you guys coming back for more of that?"
As the secretary’s words sunk in, Kingsley's eyes reddened instantly. With coldness radiating from hisbody, he asked, "Which woman, exactly?"
"Who else could it be? Of course, it's the goddess entrepreneur of Cleapolis—Reene Wynn!" Shecrossed her arms in front of her chest and sneered. "But, too bad. There's no way she can get moresupport anymore. She's completely ruined this time round!"
Kingsley clenched his fist and snapped, "Did you guys really hit her?!"
"Yeah, we did! So what?" The secretary displayed an indifferent attitude. "She kept begging and askingour president to invest in the Neveah Store. Of course, the president was annoyed and called thesecurity on her to kick her out. I can't imagine how embarrassing it is for the president of a departmentstore to get kicked in the butt and even fall under the glare of everyone!"
"F*ck off!" Kingsley pushed her away and strode into Charlie's office right away.
The female secretary staggered after being pushed away, but almost immediately, she trotted in herheels to chase after him. "Stop there! The president is in a meeting with a VIP! You can't go in now!"
As soon as she said that, she saw him land a kick onto the glass door of the president's office! Crack…The glamorous glass door broke into pieces all over the ground.
