Chapter 499 Rebuilding the Cemetery

As they stepped out of the Wynn Manor, Reene asked somewhat worriedly, "Kingsley, are you going tosort them out at Ramada Hotel? Well, the Coliree Group's owner is your comrade-in-arms, but wouldn't itbe sort of bad to do this?"

"Don't worry, Reene. I know what I'm doing," Kingsley reassured her with a smile. "Come on, let's go.Should I drive you home first?" he said while helping her open the passenger side door of his car.

After getting into the car, Reene asked in puzzlement, "Kingsley, where else are you going? You've justcome back from Diosna, so you shouldn't be going around."

"I'm going to check on my parents' cemetery." Kingsley started the car. "I haven't been there to take alook since coming back from Diosna."

A tender expression appeared on Reene's face. "I'll go with you, then. I have yet to pay them myrespects."

"There's no hurry. The cemetery isn't finished yet," Kingsley replied while driving the car. "It won't be toolate for you to pay your respects to them after I'm done getting rid of those who have to be taken careof."

A hint of worry flickered across Reene's face when she heard this. She opened her mouth and wanted tosay something, only to bite back the words in the end. Kingsley had always appeared casual andcheerful since his return, but she had noticed long ago that he had been doing things she didn't knowabout. Even his identity seemed more complicated than it appeared to be! She replied with a sigh,"Kingsley, no matter what you're gonna do, just keep in mind that I always have your back. I'm just thechairman of a small company for now, but as long as you need it, I'll do my best to help you—even if itmeans I'll have to put my life on the line!"

Kingsley was moved deep down by her words. She's right! I have to avenge the murder of my parentsbesides facing those cunning and vicious Sweoyan spies, but I have seven sisters at my back who arewilling to put their lives on the line for me! In an instant, he felt reinvigorated. Taking a deep breath tocompose himself, he replied with a grin, "Reene, what else can I be doing? I'm just eating and drinkingaround like a loafer. And besides, although you're still the chairman of a small department store rightnow, I believe it won't take long for you to become the number one female entrepreneur on the list ofrichest Qustians!"

Reene burst into a chuckle. "You've always been such a smooth talker since you were little!" she saidbefore pointing at the crossroads ahead. "Just turn left over there. I'm going straight back to my office inorder to work hard to become the number one female entrepreneur!"

"Alright!" Kingsley replied. With that, he turned the steering wheel and turned left right away…

After driving Reene to the Neveah Department Store, he went straight to the Nicholson Family Cemetery.

It had been some time since the previous explosion. At this moment, the cemetery had taken shape onceagain thanks to Leroy's hard work around the clock.

Upon entering the cemetery, Kingsley noticed that the safety helmets worn by the workers on theconstruction site no longer bore the logo of Codrington Construction. Instead, the logos on their helmetsbelonged to another construction company.

"Mr. Nicholson!" Leroy hurriedly trotted up to Kingsley as soon as he saw his car. "You're here, Mr.Nicholson."

Seeing the man's suntanned face, Kingsley said with a smile, "You've worked hard these days."

"No, not at all!" Leroy replied with an innocent smile. "Seeing the cemetery being rebuilt bit by bit makesme full of energy!"

"Even so, don't overwork yourself. Go back and visit Mr. Johnson more often when you have time."Kingsley patted him on the shoulder. "By the way, I've noticed that these workers aren't the ones fromCodrington Construction anymore?"

Leroy scratched his head. "After the previous explosion, I thought Codrington Construction was kind ofunreliable even if they had nothing to do with the incident."
