I Am the Ruler of All

Chapter 424

Governor Norris, the city mayor who was standing nearby, stomped his foot angrily and exclaimed furiously, "I warned you a long time ago! I told you to manage your children properly! Teach your children properly! Don't provoke influential figures! Look at the situation now! You've totally destroyed everything!"

Likewise, Director Klein wiped at his cold sweat and echoed the sentiment, "That's right! It doesn't matter that you've spoiled your son rotten! But he almost dragged me down with him! Once I return to work, I will definitely arrange a meeting with Director Webb of the Economic Crime Investigation Department and thoroughly investigate the issues of the Sunrise Corporation together!"

He couldn't help feeling a lingering sense of fear! If Lev and Jim had not arrived in time just now, he would have agreed with Eric to confront Kingsley together! He wiped at the cold sweat on his forehead once more, feeling his knees go weak at the thought!

When Arnold heard Director Klein’s statement, his breathing immediately became erratic!

If the Economic Crime Investigation Department sent their men to investigate the Sunrise Corporation, he would definitely suffer a huge loss even if he managed to escape the executioner! That was because he knew that the Economic Crime Investigation Department would not launch an investigation for no reason at all! What's more, they would never return empty-handed once they began their investigations!

Not to mention, the hands of the Sunrise Corporation were not clean in the first place!

"Bam!" Arnold slid off the chair and abruptly slumped to the ground in a sitting position! He clutched painfully at his chest. Sweat poured down his face profusely, almost as though he was raining buckets

of sweat!

"Wheeze… Wheeze… Huff… Wheeze…" He gasped for breath, his face twisting into an ugly grimace due to the agony!

Kingsley recalled how Arnold had previously swallowed several instant cardio reliever pills and inadvertently frowned at the sight, "President Yorkshire, do you have cardiac issues? Do you still have any medicine on you?"

Unfortunately, Arnold could only wheeze desperately for breath. He could not speak a single word! He did carry some emergency medicine with him, but he had been so enraged by Eric earlier that his condition had flared up. He had already gulped down all his medicine in one go! Therefore, he no longer had any medication on hand! This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"President Yorkshire, the projects between the Sunrise Corporation and the Coliree Group will remain in effect." Kingsley sighed heavily. "However, you will no longer monopolize these projects. You are now required to split out a part of the projects and hand them over to the Scarlet Heart Group. After a series of competitions, the Coliree Group will then decide who will complete the project based on the respective contributions of each company!"

Heston and Will were elated upon hearing Kingsley’s decision! They immediately kneeled in front of Kingsley and thanked him fervently, "Thank you, Mr. Nicholson! Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Nicholson!"

Heston's eyes sparkled with excitement. He was so close to enshrining and worshiping Kingsley like a God! After all, he never imagined that he could seize an opportunity right out of Arnold's hands!

On the other hand, Arnold's complexion only improved slightly. It was just that the disappointment in his expression could not be concealed!

At the moment, both Governor Norris and Director Klein were already dissatisfied with the Sunrise Corporation. Moreover, there was no saying when the Economic Crime Investigation Department might come forward and stab him in the back!

At this rate, the Sunrise Corporation had a ninety-nine percent chance of losing to the Scarlet Heart Group in the competition! In the end, they might only be left with the scraps and leftovers of the Scarlet Heart Group…

Be that as it may, he took a deep breath and weakly murmured, "Thank you… For your mercy, Mr. Nicholson…"

He knew that Kingsley could have given the entire project over to the Scarlet Heart Group if he so wished. Fortunately, the other party had not gone directly for the jugular and opted instead to leave him with a glimmer of hope.

"There's no need to thank me. Instead, consider this as repayment for the favor you showed me when you helped clear the roads for my sister back then," Kingsley said lightly. "From now onward, you and I will no longer owe each other anything."

Arnold suddenly shuddered in fear even though he should have been happy to hear those words!

"From now onward, you and I will no longer owe each other anything."

He fully understood those words! The truth was that Kingsley's statement held another meaning!
