The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power
Chapter 575 Watch Out for Trouble Ahead

"Uh... no," Kingsley replied as usual. "I just heard that there's a meeting going on here and thought that I'd join in the fun."

Victoria burst into laughter. "Boss Nicholson, it looks like you've gone all out for this grand spectacle!"

Then, she lowered her voice and asked, "Are you here for Advisor Shane? I heard that he didn't receive an invitation today. Are you here to replace out information for him?" Kingsley was surprised that she had come up with such a good excuse for him. He quickly nodded and replied, "Yeah, I'm here to check the situation for Advisor Shane."

At this, there was a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes.

She boldly patted his shoulder and exclaimed, "Since you consider me your sister, why didn't you just come directly to me if you wanted to attend the meeting? You don't have to allow Master Quintana's men to intimidate you."

He smiled awkwardly. "I never thought of that..."

Then, he shifted his gaze and asked, "Victoria, have you heard any rumors about today's meeting?"

"Rumors? None at all." She was puzzled. "Why? Is there something else going on in this meeting?"

He couldn't help but freeze in utter disbelief upon learning that Victoria was completely oblivious to today's meeting.

As he glanced at the expressions of other people present, it was pretty clear that everyone was already in the loop. This was a trap set up by Jarett to target the Jeanne Gang!

How come... she is still in the dark about this?

Kingsley frowned slightly and looked at Rupert Shapiro who was standing beside him.

Rupert's eyes were filled with jealousy and malice, accompanied by a hint of subtle nervousness.

Suddenly, it all clicked for Kingsley.

It must be Rupert who was deceiving and hiding things from Victoria!

He deliberately withheld this crucial piece of information from her.

As Kingsley came to this realization, a chilling frost descended upon his face in an instant.

He looked at Rupert intently but directed his words to Victoria, saying, "I'm afraid that today's meeting might be a trap. Stay on guard."

"A trap?" Victoria's smile vanished instantly, and her expression became serious. "I see now! It all makes sense why Boss Jarett suddenly gathered all those underworld forces. But... what on earth do they want?"

Kingsley continued to stare coldly at Rupert and replied, "Perhaps we should ask Rupert about this. He might know something about the situation."

Just then, a thought crossed her mind. Then, she lifted her gaze and shifted her attention to Rupert, asking, "Do you have any idea about this?" "I-I have no idea..." Rupert replied.

Caught off guard by her questioning, he failed to conceal the malevolence on his face in time.

In an instant, his entire expression became stiff. "Miss Jeanne, I haven't heard of anything. Isn't this just a regular meeting?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wyatt, who had seen Axel off, came back.

Unaware of Rupert's panicked state, Wyatt walked past them and even exchanged a knowing glance with him.

Witnessing this scene, Kingsley became even more certain that Rupert knew the truth!

A cold smile curled up on his lips. "Victoria, don't worry. Since I'm here today, I will definitely keep you safe! I won't let any harm come your way! However, I'll give you a piece of advice. Be careful and watch ou for trouble ahead!"

Watch out for trouble ahead!

At these words, Rupert's face became even more unsightly.

It was obvious that the warning was aimed directly at him!

"Nicholson, what do you mean?" Rupert furrowed his brows. "Stop trying to sow discord!"

"I was just making a casual remark. Why are you getting so worked up?" Kingsley responded with a smirk. "If you have nothing to hide, why do you take it personally?"

"You-"

Rupert took a step forward and was ready to throw down with him.

"Enough!" Victoria suddenly reprimanded, "Don't cause any trouble here!"

"Yes... Miss Jeanne."

Rupert could only step back and suppress his anger.

However, beneath his lowered gaze, a thick cloud of resentment had nearly solidified.
