“That’s it!”Waylon shook his head. “Such a waste of potential. If he hadn’t offended the Cadogans, he might have turned out to be the second Living Reaper…”It was a pity that destiny turned out this way!At Admiralporium…Taylor put his phone down with a glower and an angry snort.Channing snarled as well, “How dare Waylon Pattingson intervene in the Cadogan’s affair!?”Just moments earlier, his grandfather had called him to stop him from settling the score with Kayson this time. This meant that he had been beaten up for nothing—and without a channel to vent!Taylor commented darkly, “The old man’s at this age, yet he’s gotten silly this once… Listen to your grandfather first.“I’m sure Kayson won’t be able to hold back from getting into another conflict with us. Will Waylon dare clash with the Cadogans just for him?”Channing huffed viciously. “I certainly hope so. Then he’ll have to pay for it!”Jude, whose injuries were semi-recovered, sat on the side, scowling in silenc
All who were present glanced at Hudson. Sadie was his grandniece regardless, but he was more merciless than all of them there.Taylor frowned. “This can’t be done. The Wolfendens can be picked on and oppressed, but they mustn’t be killed.”The others were astonished, wearing curious expressions, but Taylor did not go into it.Sir Osborn gave it a thought and said, “Just send someone to fight for the project with the Wolfendens then.”Taylor nodded. “I feel the same way, actually. Is there a suitable candidate here? Or is anyone willing to step up?”Falon spoke up. “Patrol Yost, I have a candidate. I think all of you here know Eddy Perez?”“I do. Isn’t he close to you, Millers?” asked Clifford.Falon scoffed. “Kayson’s had a conflict with Eddy. He’ll be happy to go against him if he's given a chance!”Taylor asked, “Is this Eddy Perez reliable?”“Don’t worry, Patrol Yost. Eddy’s absolutely dependable. He’s a businessman worth billions of dollars after all,” answered Falon.Tay
“If all of you can help me chase Farris out of Soulspring Pharmaceutical, Soulspring Pharmaceutical can contribute to getting rid of Kayson as well!”Taylor thought about it but did not reply straight away.Carlson added. “Soulspring Pharmaceutical has a warlord as well!“If I’m able to have more say, the assistant manager on my side can ask this warlord for help!”Taylor smiled instantly. “No problem! Leave this Farris Townsend to us. What do the rest of you think?”“Hah, if we could gain another warlord to our side, it’d be great. We certainly have no objection!” Falon took the initiative to chorus the sentiment. This was his chance to shine and earn favors from Taylor and Channing!The others could only follow suit, not daring to oppose.Taylor nodded with a smile, happy with how the meeting with the various major influences turned out today.…Another night slipped by, and it was the day of Dickinson International’s bidding.Sadie had come to Skyspring in advance becaus
Just when even Kayson thought that nothing would go wrong, a voice spoke up abruptly.“$35,000,000!”The few people Nigel had arranged looked over in shock. Sadie panicked inwardly as well.“How could this happen… It’s exceeded the base price!”Kayson could not help frowning. Was this Nigel’s setup? It seemed impossible!Sadie gnashed her teeth and made another bid. “$36,000,000!”“$42,000,000!”The middle-aged man with his hair gelled back seemed to have scoffed before making his bid.Kayson was sure that the man was not part of Nigel’s plan now, so it meant that he was simply a troublemaker.Sadie was pale. $42,000,000 had already exceeded her budget.Kayson pulled out his phone to ask Royce who the man was, only for the latter and Beckham’s texts to come one after another. He read the texts with furrowed brows. Eddy Perez? He had some impression of him!Back when he was in Clouspring at Parfume Bar, a Hans Perez wanted to take advantage of Wanda, and he had saved the girl
Jeremy’s network of intelligence was not too bad. He soon had the Perezs investigated and sent the findings to Kayson.Kayson browsed it swiftly and commented, “The Millers… Falon Miller’s obsessed with getting even, huh?”Truthfully, he did not think he had too much a conflict with the Millers. It was just the case of Michael and him not doing Falon a favor previously. The Millers had attacked the Whitmans, and Kayson was close to Michael. How was it a problem that he ignored the Millers and did not do them any favor?Michael was nearly doomed from getting conspired against by the Osborns and the Millers, and it had been Waylon who helped to resolve the man’s crisis. Kayson had not even planned to settle the score with the Millers and Osborns over this, but Falon was springing up at this moment. It seemed that the man was pretty tactless.Jeremy wore a grim look. “Kayson, this isn’t as simple. If it were only the Millers, Falon wouldn’t dare pick on you so openly.”Kayson’s name
Jeremy nodded in a severe manner. “If you don’t stop being so polite, then you will not be welcome in my house anymore.”Soon, Seth came and recounted everything in detail.Kayson fell into thought for a while and said, “If I want to take back Dickinson International, I need to start with the Perezs?”“Yes, and you need to do it fast!” Seth said, “If not, once he transfers the ownership of the project to a stronger organization, it’ll be even harder for you to get it back. Also, there’s something I think I should let you know first, Mr. Yarde.”Kayson, Jeremy, and Shyla all turned their heads in chorus and looked at this capable president of the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce, who had connections with most of the enterprises in Skyspring.Seth’s face was stern as he said, “I don’t know why the Cadogans are targeting Ms. Wolfenden and the others, but if we can’t get rid of Taylor and Channing, it’ll be dangerous for Ms. Wolfenden to stay in Skyspring.”“I know. So I have another pl
After Kayson returned to Shamrock Heights, he did not see Sadie. He scanned the house with his mind expansion, and then he found that she was in her room.He thought for a while before deciding to go into the kitchen. After making a few dishes, he went to call for her.Sadie walked downstairs with him. When she saw the food on the table, she asked, “Did you make these? You know how to cook too?” Kayson nodded. “My old man was a lazy *ss back then. He wanted me to cook for him every day when I was only eight.”“I see. I didn’t know you could cook…”“As far as I know, you know how to cook as well, right, Ms. Wolfenden? You know how to cook even though you come from a prestigious family, so it’s normal for someone like me who comes from a village to know how to cook, right?”Sadie seemed rather upset as she said, “I didn’t say that. Do you have to talk to me like that?”Kayson replied helplessly, “Alright, alright, I shouldn’t have said that to you. Please take your seat and have
Eddy said coldly, “Those women did it voluntarily. They’re a bunch of gold-diggers, so there’s nothing wrong with my son.” “But my friend was forced.” Kayson sneered coldly. “Cut the crap. I know you came here for Dickinson International, but let me tell you something, there’s nothing I can do either!” Eddy said, gritting his teeth. “I’m just working for other people. Even if you kill me, you won’t get Dickinson International back.” “Just tell me, is Dickinson International in your hands now?” Kayson asked indifferently.Eddy fell silent, and Kayson already knew the answer.“Give me Dickinson International, and I’ll let you live.” “Even if you don’t kill me, Mr. Miller and the others will still kill me! There’s no way I’m going to survive!” Eddy said angrily.“Oh, I’ve forgotten about him…” Kayson chuckled. It went without saying that he had a plan of his own for coming here without letting anyone know. The truth was that he couldn’t change anything either if he got Dickin
