Bo took Matthew to the pub he owned.“Father…”Matthew called out in fear with a shaky voice.Bo pulled a long face. “Don’t provoke Kayson anymore because our family can’t afford to bear the consequences. You’re lucky that you could buy your way this time, but how about the next?”Matthew was already scared out of his wits, so he assured his father, saying, “I promise that I won’t do it again!”Bo leaned against the car seat. “Send someone to deal with the Redcliffs later and make them pay back all the money they embezzled.“If they don’t behave themselves and follow the order, find someone to take care of them and report back to me when you’re done.”“Sure!”Matthew immediately began to work on the task when he arrived at the pub.The first people he approached were the Redcliffs, Anderson and his son, Jackie. Had it not been Jackie’s help in setting him up with Cecile, how could he get to know such a beautiful woman like her?It was all Jackie’s fault for almost getting h
The three of them returned to Cecile’s house afterward. Kayson had only taken a seat for a short while before he received Rowena’s call.He arrived at Rowena’s house soon after.He found Rowena’s door vandalized by someone, and the stainless steel frame was jagged from the hitting.Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. “It’s me, Ms. Todd. Please open the door.”“You’re here at last, Kayson!”Rowena’s shaky, fearful voice was heard coming from the door gap.The door opened, and Kayson walked into the house to find Rowena holding a cooking knife for self-defense.“Where’s your brother?”Rowena said fearfully, “My brother was summoned back to work, so he left early in the morning.”Kayson nodded. “What’s going on with the vandalism on your door?”Rowena’s eyes reddened with tears at the mention of the door.“I… I told a friend that I’m planning to quit my current job yesterday night. As a result, my manager called me this morning saying that I will need to bear the consequences if I ch
Rowena worked in a fashion company for the time being.However, it was a small and medium-sized enterprise while Rowena was a staff member in the design department. Her so-called best friend, Felicia, was in the same department. They were alike in temperament, so they became friends quickly.“Felicia, you did a pretty good job this time.”The manager named Simon Crest said to Felicia in the office of the design department’s manager.In truth, Simon’s reputation in the company was not good. It was because there were rumors about him harassing the female staff members, but no one ever stepped forward to accuse him with solid proof all this time.Hence, the rumors did not affect him much despite their existence.In addition, he was capable at work, which was why the chairman was very fond of him. Felicia was a rather pleasant-looking woman, and her beauty was just at the passing score at the very least, yet the finest part of her was her figure.It was the main reason Simon a
“W-Who are you!? How dare you hit me! Security, where’s security?”A few security guards came rushing over with their batons.Kayson took a glance at them and made his way to the door before he kicked up a chair next to him that landed on a security guard. The latter spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.The other security guards stared at Kayson in fear, and they were shocked by his fighting skill. Kayson said nonchalantly, “You’re not welcome to enter the office for the time being. Just wait here.”The head of security had a solemn expression. He could tell that Kayson was no ordinary man at one glance. Hence, he stopped his subordinates and said solemnly, “Sir, this is a company. It’s kind of inappropriate for you to stir up trouble here, right?”Kayson chuckled. “You might be right. You may also attempt to stop me, of course.”The head of security kept quiet because he could tell the disparity between the man and himself after witnessing the man’s move earlier.Felicia loo
In truth, Kayson could see that Rowena would not be able to quit her job and leave the company on her own.Simon was a very annoying man.Kayson decided he would need to deal with Simon today so Rowena could leave this place. Simon asked, “Who the f*ck are you!? I’m managing my staff, and how is it any of your business?”Rowena said first, “He’s my boyfriend! What’s mine is his!”“Boyfriend?” Simon’s chest burned with rage upon hearing that. He had been yearning for her for so long, yet she was actually dating someone else?“Felicia, why didn’t you tell me that Rowena has a boyfriend? How dare you keep something from me!?”Felicia was startled, and she protested by saying, “Mr. Crest, I didn’t! I told you everything in its truth, and I’ve even told you Rowena’s secrets!”The expressions of the colleagues changed drastically as soon as she said that.Felicia had revealed way too many things in her remark, and it seemed that what Rowena had told earlier was true!Felicia had i
Finnick was shocked. “What!? This is unbelievable!”“Right? That’s why I came right to you after I just escaped death!” Finnick then continued. “This is a great opportunity, Bo.”“What do you mean?” Bo frowned. Finnick looked at him intently and said, “Think about it, Bo. Although you've offended Mr. Yarde, you've gotten his forgiveness, right?“If that's the case, you should seize the chance to gain his favor! You can offer him wealth or show your allegiance to him. Do you know why Fernando could get everything he wanted in Northspring?“It’s because he was powerful! There are a lot of things that we can’t do, but he could!” Finnick sighed. “If I were you, I would do everything I can to build a good relationship with him!”Understanding soon dawned upon Bo, and his eyes glowed after listening to Finnick’s explanation.‘Why did I not realize that?’All that had been in his mind was how to appease Kayson's anger. It had never crossed his mind that he should try to curry favor
As such, Rowena and Kayson waited in the office.Steven continued to please and flatter them, appearing as if he had turned a new leaf. He kept pouring them tea with respect as if he was worried about rubbing Kayson the wrong way.20 minutes later…A man with a portly figure stormed in. He was wearing glasses, and his face was grim.“Uncle Arthur!” Steven hurriedly ran up to him. A hint of resentment crossed his eyes as he darted a hateful gaze at Kayson.Arthur nodded and said, “Don’t worry. I’m here.”He measured Steven from head to toe and asked, “Are you all right?”“Yeah. I’m fine,” replied Steven.Arthur approached Kayson and asked, “Are you the one who bullied my nephew?”Rowena’s face turned pale with fear when she saw Arthur. She knew that Arthur was one of the shareholders in the company.In fact, everyone was the same. Everyone was scared of their teachers when they were in school, and they were afraid of their superiors after they started working.Kayson said cal
’Friend? Resign?’Bo took a look at Rowena, who was standing next to Kayson. Although he did not know the whole story, he had some speculation about it.Bo was considered an influential figure in Northspring, and both the Crests were stunned at how reverent he was to Kayson.However, the most surprised person was not them but Finnick. Other than feeling shocked, Finnick also felt a chill down his spine.It was never in his wildest dream that the person who had come to cause trouble in his company was Kayson, the man who had killed Fernando. “Mr. Sullivan—” Finnick’s face sank as Arthur was about to say something.“Arthur, you’re no longer a board member of the board of directors!” Arthur’s pupils constricted as he said in disbelief, “What did you say!?”Finnick let out a cold smile and pointed at Steven’s nose. “As for you, you’re no longer the design department manager. Now, get the hell out of my company with your uncle!”Steven's face turned pale, and he was filled with
