Chase couldn’t give him an exact answer. “Well… Maybe in 10 days or a half month?”Suddenly, Chase’s eyes turned stern, and he added, “Mr. Yarde, the inspector from Eternalporium will come to Skyriv soon. So if it’s not absolutely necessary, don’t kill any fighters for now.” Kayson was slightly confused after he heard what Chase said. “Eternalporium?”“Yeah,” Chase replied. “The role of Admiralporium for fighters is similar to the role of the police department for common folk. “I’m sure you must’ve realized this as well. We don’t really step into every fight and feud between fighters. Someone must report it to us first before we can start an investigation or arrest someone.” Kayson nodded. Since Chase hadn’t taken his ID back yet, he was still a member of Admiralporium's special task force and he had a basic grasp of why Admiralporium should exist. “Unlike Admiralporium, Eternalporium has the power to act directly. Even Admiralporium has to cooperate with Eternalporium, and i
Outside the ward…Kayson asked, “Have you found the culprit?”Tyrone shook his head. “Not yet. But one thing we’re very sure of is that he’s coming for Jeremy’s life.” He paused for a moment then, as something occurred to him. He looked at Kayson and said apologetically, “Kayson, there’s one more thing…“About the Dickinson International Project… I’m sorry, but I can’t give it to Wolfenden Corp.”Kayson was stunned. “Why?” “Now that Mr. Whitman was transferred away, the new guy who took over his position isn’t on good terms with us. I’m afraid he won’t do us the favor.”The Tinsleys had a big influence in Skyspring, but they were not the largest family.Kayson frowned. Dickinson International was essential to Wolfenden Corp. It was their ticket into Skyspring’s market.However, since Michael, the original person in charge of this project, had been removed from his position, everything would become uncertain, and the ownership of Dickinson International might not fall into
Kayson left the Tinsley Mansion after he gave them a prescription.He did not plan to return to Clouspring for the time being. Even though Michael wasn’t there, the Whitmans wouldn’t go down so easily.Regardless of who the Osborns had sent, they would need some time to finish their preparations before they could take any action. Right now, whoever dared go against the Wolfendens in Clouspring would be courting death. Not only was Wolfenden Corp. protected by a group of capitalists, but they also had the impregnable local forces on their side. Anyone who had the guts to go against them would be hitting a rock with an egg. Kayson fell into thought as he walked across the street. He could ask Waylon for help, but there would be a limit to it. Waylon wouldn’t mind helping him with some trivial matters, but if the situation in Skyspring was revealed, there was a huge possibility that he wouldn’t help him. Unless he got closer to Waylon...Someone from Skyspring was plotting a
It was apparent that Noella did not believe him. She checked the time and asked, “Are you free now?”“Why?”“Come with me to a party.”Kayson was free, so he agreed. Moreover, he wanted to make use of the time he had in the next few days to guide Noella in starting her training. “Oh right, is the heir of the Killicks still bothering you?”Noella let out a grunt and said, “Not anymore! There’s no telling if he’s moved by conscience or something, but he’s been avoiding me all this time since my return to the university.“Moreover, I’ll tell you this. He sent someone to apologize to me afterward. I thought to myself that since he didn’t manage to take advantage of me, I should stop making a big fuss with him.”Kayson nodded and thought about how Jules was good at managing the situation. He had investigated the matter clearly so he could stop it in time. Otherwise, he would never let the Killicks off if the Killicks’ heir still had the audacity to bother Noella or even adopt some
How could Joanna be oblivious to his intention? He wanted to get the man brought by Noella wasted!She sneered coldly in her heart. If Noella really had a boyfriend, how would she be unaware of it since they were practically besties?It was apparent that Noella had brought over Kayson as her buffer.However, since the man was here, he should be prepared to be pranked close to death because Lex was no ordinary person. Anyone targeted by Lex would definitely end in a tragic state. “Noella’s friend, why don’t you come here? Lex wants to get you a drink. If you can drink to his pleasure, I assure you that you will have a good life here in Skyspring.”Kayson walked over and said with a smile, “So impressive, huh? How can I drink to Mr. Jackson’s pleasure?”Lex said, “You seem to be rather confident of your alcohol tolerance, my friend. If that’s the case, let’s drink, shall we?”Lex added with a spurious smile, “A friendly reminder to you, I’m known as the most seasoned drinker of
Noella did not expect Kayson’s alcohol tolerance to be so high!‘Did the alcohol evaporate from them after they drank? What the heck is wrong with their stomachs, huh!?’Soon, they downed 13 bottles each, but Lex was no longer as fast as he was in the beginning. However, Kayson’s expression remained relaxed, and only a tinge of pinkness from drinking could be seen on his face. Lex cussed in his heart. ‘F*ck! Why is this boy such a good drinker?‘He must be feigning it. I must force myself to remain calm because I will surely win if I can hold on a little longer!’Hence, they downed 26 bottles each. Beer was already dripping from the corner of Lex’s lips, and it was apparent he could not drink anymore.Kayson was no longer as ferocious as he was earlier, and he was also slowing down. Kayson said, “Mr. Jackson, I’m already at my 30th.”The corner of Lex’s lips twitched, and he threw up. His expression was rather unpleasant, and his gaze turned gloomy as well. He glared at K
Harlan was stunned. The Killicks were one of the six major powerful families in Skyspring. Lex was nothing but the son of the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce’s president. The Killicks would never take the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce seriously, let alone Lex?Harlan giggled coldly. “It seems that you’re even more conceited than I had imagined! If you want to make a move on Noella, you will have to go through me first!”Noella was still in shock. ‘What the heck is Harlan doing?‘Is he trying to protect me? However, why is he protecting me? Does he think I’ll fall for him just because he’s doing this?‘No, he mentioned about me being the Killicks’ important guest…’Noella became even more confused. Since when did she form a relationship like this with the Killicks?She had never even seen the Killicks’ door!Lex assumed a teasing expression and said, “Harlan, oh Harlan. I have no idea how I’m supposed to tell you this…“That’s fine. It’s about time for you to learn the awful tru
Kayson had not noticed anyone spiking the drink in the glass or the bottle, and the liquor bottle was only opened up after they got here.This was also the reason Lex had kept quiet after Harlan came in and accused him of spiking the drink.However, it was apparent that the drug had already taken effect, judging by Noella’s mannerism. If that were the case, someone had probably spiked the bottle of liquor in advance before sealing the cap back on.Kayson suddenly sighed and said, “You really shouldn’t have spiked Noella’s drink, Lex.”Had he not bumped into Noella coincidentally tonight, he could imagine what would have happened to Noella. How could he justify himself to Michael when Michael returned to Clouspring and learned that Noella had lost her chastity?By then, he would not be able to clear his guilt toward Michael for the rest of his life!Lex’s gaze turned cold, and he said in rage, “F*ck! How is this any of your damn business, you piece of sh*t!?“I couldn’t stand
