Chapter 424

Governor Norris, the city mayor who was standing nearby, stomped his foot angrily and exclaimedfuriously, "I warned you a long time ago! I told you to manage your children properly! Teach yourchildren properly! Don't provoke influential figures! Look at the situation now! You've totally destroyedeverything!"

Likewise, Director Klein wiped at his cold sweat and echoed the sentiment, "That's right! It doesn'tmatter that you've spoiled your son rotten! But he almost dragged me down with him! Once I return towork, I will definitely arrange a meeting with Director Webb of the Economic Crime InvestigationDepartment and thoroughly investigate the issues of the Sunrise Corporation together!"

He couldn't help feeling a lingering sense of fear! If Lev and Jim had not arrived in time just now, hewould have agreed with Eric to confront Kingsley together! He wiped at the cold sweat on his foreheadonce more, feeling his knees go weak at the thought!

When Arnold heard Director Klein’s statement, his breathing immediately became erratic!

If the Economic Crime Investigation Department sent their men to investigate the Sunrise Corporation,he would definitely suffer a huge loss even if he managed to escape the executioner! That wasbecause he knew that the Economic Crime Investigation Department would not launch an investigationfor no reason at all! What's more, they would never return empty-handed once they began theirinvestigations!

Not to mention, the hands of the Sunrise Corporation were not clean in the first place!

"Bam!" Arnold slid off the chair and abruptly slumped to the ground in a sitting position! He clutchedpainfully at his chest. Sweat poured down his face profusely, almost as though he was raining buckets

of sweat!

"Wheeze… Wheeze… Huff… Wheeze…" He gasped for breath, his face twisting into an ugly grimacedue to the agony!

Kingsley recalled how Arnold had previously swallowed several instant cardio reliever pills andinadvertently frowned at the sight, "President Yorkshire, do you have cardiac issues? Do you still haveany medicine on you?"

Unfortunately, Arnold could only wheeze desperately for breath. He could not speak a single word! Hedid carry some emergency medicine with him, but he had been so enraged by Eric earlier that hiscondition had flared up. He had already gulped down all his medicine in one go! Therefore, he nolonger had any medication on hand!

"President Yorkshire, the projects between the Sunrise Corporation and the Coliree Group will remainin effect." Kingsley sighed heavily. "However, you will no longer monopolize these projects. You arenow required to split out a part of the projects and hand them over to the Scarlet Heart Group. After aseries of competitions, the Coliree Group will then decide who will complete the project based on therespective contributions of each company!"

Heston and Will were elated upon hearing Kingsley’s decision! They immediately kneeled in front ofKingsley and thanked him fervently, "Thank you, Mr. Nicholson! Thank you for your generosity, Mr.Nicholson!"

Heston's eyes sparkled with excitement. He was so close to enshrining and worshiping Kingsley like aGod! After all, he never imagined that he could seize an opportunity right out of Arnold's hands!

On the other hand, Arnold's complexion only improved slightly. It was just that the disappointment in hisexpression could not be concealed!

At the moment, both Governor Norris and Director Klein were already dissatisfied with the SunriseCorporation. Moreover, there was no saying when the Economic Crime Investigation Department mightcome forward and stab him in the back!

At this rate, the Sunrise Corporation had a ninety-nine percent chance of losing to the Scarlet HeartGroup in the competition! In the end, they might only be left with the scraps and leftovers of the ScarletHeart Group…

Be that as it may, he took a deep breath and weakly murmured, "Thank you… For your mercy, Mr.Nicholson…"

He knew that Kingsley could have given the entire project over to the Scarlet Heart Group if he sowished. Fortunately, the other party had not gone directly for the jugular and opted instead to leave himwith a glimmer of hope.

"There's no need to thank me. Instead, consider this as repayment for the favor you showed me whenyou helped clear the roads for my sister back then," Kingsley said lightly. "From now onward, you and Iwill no longer owe each other anything."

Arnold suddenly shuddered in fear even though he should have been happy to hear those words!

"From now onward, you and I will no longer owe each other anything."

He fully understood those words! The truth was that Kingsley's statement held another meaning!
