Quite a lot of eyes focused on Kayson as soon as he walked into Boardroom 3.However, most people were looking at him in astonishment.A man sized up Kayson with an arrogant gaze. “Who are you?”“I’m the deputy chief of The Tetrad from the project department, Kayson Yarde. Mr. Oxley is away from work today, so I’m attending the meeting on his behalf,” replied Kayson. “The Tetrad?” The man sniggered in contempt. “Mr. Batley, don’t you think saving a spot for The Tetrad is a waste? The bottled water of our company costs money too.”The rest of the people lowered their heads and sneered without bothering to hide their laughter upon hearing that.Sean furrowed his eyebrows ever so slightly but relaxed his eyebrows soon afterward. “Mr. Lawson, you do care about cost-saving for the company at all times as the person in charge of the company’s finances.“However, you’re fussing so much for just bottled water. Could it be that the company’s financial status is already so dire?”The CF
Sadie spoke coldly in a stern tone. “You don’t get to talk here, Yarde!”Miles smiled widely and behaved as if he was standing up for Kayson. “That’s not right, Ms. Wolfenden. Since Mr. Yarde is attending the boardroom meeting, he also has a right to speak.“Ms. Wolfenden’s remark is quite hurtful, isn’t it?”Sadie clenched her fists tightly in a fury!Who would want to sign a project with The Tetrad in view of their impressive reputation?Kayson was clueless!“Ms. Wolfenden, I think Mr. Lawson makes a good point. The Tetrad must produce results in order to convince the crowd.”Kayson spoke extremely seriously as if he could not understand Sadie’s intention.Miles smiled widely. “I admire an ambitious person like you. If The Tetrad can sign a project worth more than $3,000,000 within a month…“I shall acknowledge The Tetrad’s value and promise that I won’t ever mention abolishing The Tetrad anymore from then on.“However, I want The Tetrad to achieve it through their hard wor
Natalie and the others were not sad anymore with Kayson’s convincing assurance.Reva, on the other hand, was distraught.Kayson began flipping through The Tetrad’s work log casually.‘Hmm. It’s just like how Easton describes it. The Tetrad does mostly legwork, document deliveries, and project signings that are already settled.’“Mr. Kace… Why don’t you meet up with Mr. Lawson and throw in the towel? I think Mr. Lawson won’t make a fuss with us in view of his magnanimousness.”Kayson chuckled as he flipped through the file in his hand and said, “Your father is on the board of directors, yet you’re still afraid of Lawson?”Reva’s expression was gloomy. “I hold an inferior position in the company, and my words have little effect over others. My father has never paid any attention to me, and one’s capability is crucial in a place like this. What do we have to compare to Mr. Lawson, huh?“In addition, Mr. Lawson’s father is the company's second-biggest shareholder, which makes him mo
“This woman is impossible…”Kayson furrowed his brows and wondered if he was such a wet blanket. “I’ll have to talk to Grandpa Hugh to find out the extent of the favor my mentor owed back in those days. It’s way too difficult to please this woman.”‘Whoever marries this girl is in for a ride!’He heaved a sigh before hailing a taxi to follow her rapidly.…Sadie parked her car when she arrived at the Shengville Hotel. Four burly-looking bodyguards got out of the Cadillac parked next to her.“Ms. Wolfenden!”The four bodyguards nodded respectfully.“Let’s go.” Sadie’s expression was cold and calm. Naturally, she would never allow herself to come by herself. She had already ordered the bodyguards to wait for her at the hotel’s car park in advance.The four bodyguards were elites she had meticulously chosen, so they were extremely skilled in fighting.If Archer dared to be indecent, these four people would instantly subdue him. As for Kayson’s reminder, she let out a cold
Archer was fearless. No matter what happened today, the Gillete Group was backing him up.“Where the f*ck did you come from? How dare you poke your nose into this!?“Believe me when I say I won’t let you walk out of this hotel!”“I don’t believe it,” Kayson said faintly.“F*ck! Are you trying to die now!?” Archer grabbed a bottle from the table and threw it at Kayson.Kayson avoided it easily and took a brisk step forward to kick Archer. “Ahh!” Archer flew through the air and fell on the dining table with a slam.“You! B*stard! Who are you!? Tell me your name if you have the guts!”Archer was going berserk in rage. He had almost succeeded, but this blind *ss came out of nowhere.“Just an employee of Wolfenden Corp.,” Kayson answered and went up again.How could a piece of trash who indulged himself in alcohol and s*x be Kayson’s opponent?Kayson shoved Archer’s head against the table, nearly running the latter’s face as it bled.“Ahh!” Archer kept crying out in pain. “Wolf
This man was the one Tyrone wanted to introduce to Kayson.Faris was all smiles. “That’d be great. I ought to keep in touch with a young and promising talent like this!”To Faris, it was like God had lit up a path to heaven for him to be able to dine with Tyrone and Jeremy. As long as the word got out that he had dinner with the Tinsley father and son tonight, his status would be elevated instantly.He had a young man named Kayson Yarde in Wolfenden Corp. to thank for this opportunity. Without a doubt, he could see that Tyrone had high regard for Kayson. A young man who earned such regard from Tyrone must also come from a significant background. He thought he ought to seize the chance! He had to keep good ties with Kayson.Tyrone smiled and looked at Jeremy. “Call Kayson and see if he’s on his way. If not, go pick him up.”“Okay.” Jeremy nodded and called Kayson’s number.Faris was quite astonished to see that Tyrone had asked Jeremy to pick up the young man personally. ‘Who exac
A few of Archer’s woke him up. They had briefly treated his injuries as well.“F*ck off! Bunch of trash!”He kicked them away and was enraged when recalling how he had been treated.“You can fight, right? Let’s see how capable you are then!” Archer looked menacing as he dialed a number on his phone.“Bring 30 men over and wait for me at the Shengville Hotel’s basement parking lot!”He hung up after that and threw things around angrily to vent as he felt the stinging and throbbing on his back and face. ‘This damned man spoiled my plan! Unforgivable!’The more Archer thought about it, the more furious he was, so he called his colleagues.“Bro, I remember you’re responsible for the quality control of Wolfenden Corp.’s previous project, right? Pick some issues from it!”“Hey, you were in charge of one of Wolfenden Corp’s projects last year, weren’t you? Get me some scandals!”“…”After several phone calls, Archer’s expression was dark like ink.“B*tch, I’ll have you on your knee
“Stop it!”Faris sped through his toilet break and dashed back to Kayson. He had decided. No matter the price, he had to keep his ties with Kayson!It was just that he was greeted by the scene of Archer asking his men to beat up Kayson when he returned. The sight nearly scared him witless.“Archer Gustin! You b*stard! What are you trying to do to Mr. Yarde!”Archer quivered when he turned back to see Faris and stuttered, “C-Chief Cook…”The thugs next to him stopped as well.Faris was glowering as his rage flared while looking at Archer.He raised his hand and swung it down on Archer’s face. The latter’s face was already injured, so the slap only made him shudder harder in pain.“Mr. Gustin! Very well done! You’re even better than your chief now, huh!?”Archer trembled. “N-No…”Faris glanced at the thugs and hardened his gaze. “Don’t know how to piss off on your own?”The men knew that someone Archer was so scared of was definitely someone they could not afford to offend, so
This enraged Abel, so he directly destroyed the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce. The central part of the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce had already turned into ruins. The members who did not get to flee in time were buried underneath the rubble, their state of life unclear.Abel did not care one bit about this.Seth and others were nowhere to be seen, so he had asked Taylor to run a search for them, swiftly coming to the Tinsleys. Then, he found out that Kayson had taken them to Admiralporium for refuge.Abel’s expression was cool and impassive when he came to Admiralporium again.Felicity, Shien, Campian, and the others who had returned appeared in unison to stop them.Taylor scoffed. “Has Admiralporium stooped to become Kayson Yarde’s lackey? How cheap and despicable. I’ll report it honestly when I go back!”Felicity looked frosty as she ignored Taylor and behaved professionally.“If you’re here as guests, Admiralporium welcomes you. But if you’re here for trouble, you’re prohibi
Kayson did not have the courage to perform mind expansion in Admiralporium because it was not an ordinary place. On the other hand, Chase had never taken him to the weapon warehouse either. Otherwise, he would have discovered the septmetal energy here. He had the vulcan fire energy of the fire element, evergreene energy of the wood element, the aquale energy of the water element, and the septmetal energy of the metal element that he was about to harvest. He had already gathered four out of the five energies of five elements. He would have all five elements by the time he gathered the earth energy. Moreover, he would become a smasher who possessed a darksoul and a lightsoul. Warren appeared astounded upon hearing Kayson’s remark. ‘Is there really something impressive in the tattered spear?’He was a warlord, yet how did he not notice it?Even though he held the post of Admiralporium’s chief, he would frequently travel because there were very few disastrous incidents in Skyriv.
’Why would I need a hammer?’ Kayson was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. “Have you ever heard of Heavenless?”Warren’s pupils constricted, and he exclaimed, “I’ve heard it before, of course! This is an extremely well-known sword technique!“Delmont Hamilton from Northspring fought against the most skilled sword genius, Ezekiel Turner, by using Heavenless in the past!”“Do you think I can break the defense of the Cadogans’ Steel Screen man if I can perform the first form of Heavenless that is a hundred times more powerful than Mr. Hamilton Sr.’s move?”Warren stood up from his seat swiftly and said incredulously, “Y-You’re trained in Heavenless too!? I thought the sword technique had vanished together with Delmont?”Next to him, Master Shannong said, “Could it be that Delmont… is still alive?”Kayson nodded and said, “Mr. Hamilton Sr. is still alive and passed down Heavenless to me.“However, I don’t have a sword that is strong enough because ordinary swords can’t withstand
Kayson was pondering when the sound of rushed footsteps was heard coming from outside the Tinsleys’ home. He raised his head to look and said in astonishment, “Mr. Jackson, Master Shannong, what brings you here?”Seth’s head was drenched in a cold sweat as he said in fear, “The Cadogans are here, Mr. Yarde. They are planning on killing me, my son, and Master Shannong.“We packed up overnight and took most of our credit cards as well as our asset contracts with us. We came looking for you in a haste after learning that you’re at the Tinsleys’ home, Mr. Yarde.”Master Shannong was a skilled fighter, so he remained calm and composed despite being under the immense pressure caused by the Cadogans. Seth and Lex were different. They were panic-stricken and regarded Kayson as their only chance of survival. “Mr. Yarde, will you be able to deal with the Cadogans?” Seth looked at Kayson in a hopeful manner.Kayson shook his head. “I think that there’s a high probability of failure for
Chase’s expression changed ever so slightly. “Shall we inform Kayson then?”“Hmm, reach out to him and inform him that this man has already completed his Steel Screen training and that he is able to make a clean sweep of Skyriv if he wants. If Kayson were to get into a conflict with this man, he would most certainly be on the losing side.”…Kayson arrived at the Tinsleys’ home. Jeremy did not come forward to welcome his arrival, but it was Tyrone. He asked when he met Tyrone, “Grandpa Tyrone, where is Uncle Jeremy?”Tyrone heaved a sigh and said, “Jeremy has been summoned for a discussion. I just found out that there has been pressure from Metrocity’s Cadogans.”Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. ‘It’s the Cadogans from Metrocity again!’“Is Uncle Jeremy in danger?”Tyrone shook his head. “Don’t worry about his safety. It’s only that… the Cadogans will try to figure out a way to send Jeremy to jail.”Kayson was astonished. It would be his fault if Jeremy was framed and sent to
As soon as Taylor’s voice died away, Drake came running to them, his face ghastly pale. “Patrol Yost, Mr. Cadogan, Warren… Chief Kline and the others are back!”Drake’s expression was filled with fear and panic. Randall had told him that Warren was doomed after being encircled by many warlords.Yet, he did not expect that Randall would be beaten to death by Kayson not long after his return. On the other hand, Warren returned safely, while Chase and Ruby were fine as well.If that were the case, he was certain that he would be taken out as well in view of being Randall’s trusted subordinate!Drake remained panic-stricken. So what if the Cadogans were involved? Taylor and the Cadogans could walk away without any responsibility at any moment. How about him? He would still need to continue to hold his post in Admiralporium!Meanwhile, three figures with overbearing auras appeared before Abel and the others.The leading person was precisely Warren.Warren glanced at Drake before
Taylor had very little experience interacting with body practitioners, yet he had heard about Steelification Doyen’s grand reputation. He figured that Steelification Doyen’s reputation must not be so unworthy, right?Noticing Taylor’s disbelief, Abel smiled nonchalantly and said, “Master Steele, Patrol Yost is not a body practitioner, so why don’t you show him the power of Steel Screen?”Tegan, who looked to be a little over 50 years old, stood up. Taylor’s expression changed ever so slightly. He had experience fighting against Kayson, so he believed that he had a right to comment on Kayson’s capability. On the other hand, Tegan was a newly-recruited skilled fighter of the Cadogans, whom he had never heard of before.The Steel Screen’s reputation was widely-known, but he had never encountered skilled fighters trained in the Steel Screen. As such, he had no idea how powerful they could be.“Alright, I shall give it a try then!”Taylor did not reject the offer. Both of them arri
Kayson said with a calm expression, “I know. Don’t worry about that. These people are coming for me.”Beckham’s expression was solemn, and he appeared even more worried. “Mr. Yarde, do you know which influential figure or family from Metrocity it is specifically?”“Ah, I know. It’s the Cadogans from Metrocity.”Beckham and Christine’s expressions changed drastically in unison at once. “The Cadogans… from Metrocity?”Both of them were rendered speechless from fear.Christine’s face turned ghastly pale when she said, “H-How did you offend the Cadogans from Metrocity? You’ve truly broken the limits of mankind!”Beckham also said in a fearful tone, “The Cadogans from Metrocity… Mr. Yarde, we’re in deep trouble! Even though the Cadogans are based in Metrocity, they’re immensely powerful.“They can still affect our business in Skyspring despite being miles away!”Kayson smiled and said casually, “You will only need to manage the company’s operations. I will deal with the Cadogans f
Casey’s expression changed dramatically upon noticing the situation. He pointed at her and said in a stern voice, “You ungrateful wench! Since all of you wish to die so badly, I shall fulfill your wish!”Meanwhile, the boardroom’s door was blasted open by force, and Kayson walked into the room with long strides. He looked toward Casey and said nonchalantly, “Who did you say you’re going to kill?”Christine turned around abruptly and felt instantly relieved when she saw Kaysson was there. After all, the company belonged to Kayson, and she did not wish anything bad to happen to it.Hence, she showed her humility when she was dealing with these people. A slightly resentful gaze emerged on Christine’s face with light makeup on. “Boss, I was truly afraid that I wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure if you still didn’t show up.”Kayson was rendered speechless. He said, “You’re a skilled fighter, yet you are scared of him?”Christine said in frustration, “I didn’t dare to fight
