The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power

Chapter 597 There's No Remedy for Regret

The subordinates kneeling on the ground with their faces against the wall couldn't see the expression in Kingsley's eyes, but the bosses in the room had a crystal clear view of it.

At once, everyone knew that there were shady businesses going on between Kingsley and Kevin.

Augustus' pupils flickered, and his heart instantly felt like it had plunged into an abyss.

He seemed to have grasped something.

As soon as this special forces commander entered the room, he mentioned that someone had reported an incident of a group fighting.

However…

The owner of Holdaway Golf Estate was Jarett's friend, and he couldn't possibly have reported it.

Other people were even more unlikely.

When they were having the meeting, even the curtains were closed.

How could outsiders know what happened in this conference room?

Not only Augustus thought of this problem, but all the other bosses also realized that something was off.

They were aware that there was a mole among them.

It became evident that Kingsley was the mole.

Augustus' eye twitched involuntarily. "Y-You…"

At that moment, a dreadful realization dawned upon him as he recollected what Cassius had previously told them.

The person who killed Xanxus and Ashton was likely the same.

And that person is likely connected to the military!

Just a while ago, he had dismissed Cassius' speculation with a sneer.

However, seeing the subtle interactions between Kingsley and Kevin, Augustus grew increasingly convinced that Cassius' words were true.

After realizing this, he felt a deep sense of regret in his gut.

If they had listened to Cassius earlier, they wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament.

Just then, Zavier nervously spoke up. "Master Osborn, about what Mr. White said earlier…"

These bosses didn't build their own forces by being fools.

They had undoubtedly figured everything out.

Gulp!

Augustus swallowed nervously and asked, "B-Boss Nicholson, didn't you just mention that you didn't kill Ashton?" This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Yeah, I didn't kill him." Kingsley smirked.

"But I was the one who brought down his forces. And, of course, I also know the person who took his life."

At once, Augustus and other bosses were struck by shock.

They were all speechless.

What is the difference from outright killing?

Why is he keeping us in suspense like this?

D*mn it, isn't he deliberately tricking us?!

The crowd's faces underwent a noticeable change, and their expressions instantly turned pale as deep regret filled their hearts.

If only we had been aware of his military connections, we would have humbly acknowledged our mistakes upon seeing the Northern Dragon Tag.

No! If we had foreseen this outcome, we would have never set foot in this meeting in the first place!

Alas, there's no remedy for regret.

Everyone was stepping into a more desperate situation now.

Thud!

Zavier's eyes shifted, and he directly lifted his clothes and knelt before Kingsley.

"Boss Nicholson! We were only compelled to attend this meeting because of Boss Jarett's influence.

"I have no grudges with Miss Jeanne and don't want to go against her at all!"

His shrewd little eyes were filled with a pleading expression.

"As long as you let me go, I swear I'll show you and Miss Jeanne with the utmost respect! Even if Miss Jeanne wants my territory, I'm more than happy to hand it over!"

Seeing Zavier kneeling directly to Kingsley, the other bosses couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Just a moment ago, when they were pressuring Victoria and trying to kill Kingsley, he was the most enthusiastic one.

Now that the tables had turned, he was the first one to kneel and beg for mercy.

What an opportunist!

Kingsley gently tapped his finger on the conference table. "Since you've begged for mercy..."

As the softened tone of Kingsley reached everyone's ears, it seemed that there was a turning point.

Immediately, all the prominent bosses, who had previously been filled with disdain, dropped to their knees.

"Boss Nicholson, we've been wrong too!"

"Yeah, we didn't want to defy Boss Jarett's orders. We certainly didn't want to go against you either!"
