Sadie, Liam, and Kayson stopped in their tracks. They saw two familiar faces, Johnson and his son, Kuhn!Johnson and Kuhn were equally stumped to see Liam and Sadie. Why would Liam and Sadie be there?Liam did not expect to meet them both. With the smile from his face gone, he greeted them. “Mr. Zigler, Kuhn, nice to meet you two here.”Kuhn squinted his eyes slightly and asked with a condescending tone, “Are you here for dinner, Liam? Which client are you meeting up with?”It was at this time that Liam recalled the call between Johnson and Hugh and felt bitter at how the call had gone. And now, Kuhn was condescendingly talking to them.Liam replied, “I am just meeting up with a regular client, who is definitely not as important as your client.”Kuhn chuckled. “That is without saying. Tonight, we are meeting up with Mr. Gillete and Mr. Queen, the director of Triumph Land. We don’t have dinner with just anybody.” Kuhn was trying to agitate Liam on purpose. After all, they had alre
Johnson and Kuhn’s faces froze. They stood still like two figurines. Even Liam was surprised and only regained composure after a few seconds. He hurriedly held out his hand to shake Jason’s hand. “Mr. Queen, you are too humble. We too have just recently arrived.”In his mind, Liam was absolutely shocked. Jason had walked right past the Ziglers to greet them!This was something that none of them expected. It seemed like Jason couldn’t be bothered to meet up with the Ziglers. Although Liam was unsure about what was happening, he understood that he should just go along with the flow.“Mr. Queen…” Johnson was now trembling. It wasn’t clear if the trembling was due to anger, fear, or other factors.Jason turned his head around and asked, “is there anything I can help you two gentlemen with?”Johnson was totally shocked. Kuhn intercepted upon seeing what had just happened. He smiled. “Mr. Queen, did we not have an agreement to meet up tonight?”“Oh! A meet-up tonight, right? Isn’t this
“Why are you addressing me as Mr. Queen? I’m older than Mr. Wolfenden, so you can address me as Uncle Jason.”Sadie was overwhelmed by Jason’s kind mannerism. ‘Is Jason Queen such an easygoing person?’“May I know who this is?” Jason pretended not to be acquainted with Kayson after noticing him. After all, Zachary and Kayson had instructed him to do so.Sadie’s expression appeared slightly uneasy. She hesitated for a moment before she said, “This is my friend, and his name is Kayson Yarde.”Jason nodded indifferently. “Kayson Yarde… I shall remember you.”Yvette wanted to laugh, but she held back the urge to do so by the side.Kayson was calm and composed.Jason chuckled and said, “Let’s order first. We shall talk more while we eat.”After placing their orders, Jason lived up to his reputation as the director of a large corporation by completely taking control of the conversation during the meal.Both parties discussed Plot No. 8 and arrived at the topic of Trevor.Jason shoo
Wilson’s pupils constricted, and he stood over there in embarrassment.He did not expect that Jason would actually disrespect him like that.Even though Jason had no fear of him, generally, they would show some respect for each other in public even if they were not close.After all, perhaps they might need each other in the near future.He utilized this ideology and waited there for more than two hours.It was a waste that he had underestimated Jason.Jason walked past him straightforwardly without bothering to show him any grace.Let alone the fact that Jason despised Wilson from the start. It would be impossible for him to regard Wilson kindly now that Wolfenden Corp. influenced him.“Liam, Sadie, this is as far as I will send you off. I’ll pay a visit to your company once the contract is drafted.”Liam said in haste, “Do notify me by then, and I’ll drop by, Jason.”Jason said in all apparent seriousness, “I have yet to visit your company, so please tour me around the build
Hugh was already at his golden age, yet Johnson had still insulted him. Thus, he had trouble making peace with that incident.Sadie’s face was glowing with joy. “Hmm! Uncle Jason actually invited the Ziglers and us simultaneously. We thought that we were doomed in the beginning.“Unexpectedly, Uncle Jason showed up when the Ziglers were making sarcastic remarks at us, and he humiliated them!“Uncle Jason took Dad and me upstairs for a meal before the Ziglers and ignored them completely!“Grandpa, it’s a waste that you didn’t get to see their faces. I could see that Johnson almost died from anger.”Hugh’s eyes widened in surprise, and he said incredulously, “How did that happen? We are not bound by any friendship with Mr. Queen…”Liam said smilingly, “It’s possible that Jason can’t stand the Ziglers’ mannerism.”Hugh furrowed his eyebrows tightly and felt the situation was more complicated than it seemed.‘Even if Mr. Queen can’t stand the Ziglers, he can’t possibly disrespect J
Liam understood where Trevor’s confidence was coming from. Westcity’s Plot No. 8 would be his trump card to gain the support of all the major shareholders.It was precisely because he was rushing to push Sadie out of the company before this. In fact, he would even stoop as low as to seek help from an indecent person like Johnson. Had Liam not had dinner with Jason yesterday night, he would not be able to refute Trevor despite being infuriated. In fact, he would only be able to feign his boisterousness to hide his inadequacy by scolding back Trevor.However, the situation was different now. Liam found Trevor’s cluelessness to be especially amusing.“Is that so? If that’s the case, do take your time to get used to the rhythm, Mr. Lawson Sr.” Liam smiled nonchalantly. Trevor was slightly shocked to see Liam was not infuriated by him.‘What’s going on with Liam? How does he actually remain so calm under such circumstances!?’“Hmph! Do enjoy this final period of your time as the ch
Trevor inhaled a deep breath to suppress the rage in his chest. “Liam… Sadie…“I’m going to make both of you pay sooner or later!”Meanwhile, Miles stood up, and his expression was extremely gloomy. “Dad…”Trevor turned around and glared at Miles ferociously while he asked softly, “Is it true what Kayson said about you?”Miles’ expression changed drastically, and he said in haste, “It’s not true! It’s not true, Dad!”‘Damn you, Kayson! I’m going to kill you sooner or later!’Miles’ chest was burning with anger, and he cussed furiously under his breath. The blush on Sadie’s face remained visible in the elevator.She glared at Kayson. “Don’t make such indecent remarks in public from now on!”Kayson nodded. “Noted, Ms. Wolfenden. I’ll remind myself to protect patient confidentiality from now on.”Sadie was annoyed even more. ‘That b*st*rd almost had me burst out laughing aloud!’Liam did not comment further.Soon, Kayson walked out of the elevator and headed to The Tetrad
At the company basement parking lot, B1-C101…A middle-aged man with an icy gaze sat in the backseat of a black Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It was Wilson.Kayson opened the door and got into the car following Wilson’s man, and Wilson’s dark expression turned into a bright smile in the blink of an eye.“I’ll introduce myself. I am the chairman of Gillete Group, Wilson Gillete.”“Oh.” Kayson leaned back. “This car feels pretty nice.”Wilson smiled and offered, “If you like it, I can give you one.”“Forget it.” Kayson shook his head and asked, “What do you need me for?”“You’re very open and straightforward, Kayson. I like your character.”“It’s not that. I just don’t want to spend too long with you.” Kayson was not afraid of offending Wilson at all as he sounded rather curt.It did not anger Wilson as he spoke up with a smile. “My son had a conflict with you previously. Allow me to apologize on his behalf.”His son, Mason, had beaten up Easton and his friends, and Kayson was the one
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
