The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power -
Chapter 754 Him Again?!
Just as John finished speaking, a busy tone came from the other end of the phone.
The call had already been hung up!
John wiped more cold sweat off his forehead before motioning for the servant outside the door to come in and clean up the mess he had made.
Just then, the butler walked in cautiously and said, "Sir, the four missing bodyguards have been found. They were stripped naked, knocked unconscious, and thrown into the wilderness. The nearby villagers reported to the police, and that was how they were found..."
"Stripped naked?" John turned grim. "What a disgraceful bunch! Cassius is no longer the leader of the Nightfall Gang, yet they still couldn't handle it! Once they return, I'll fire all this embarrassing garbage!" "Sir... it's not entirely their fault. It's said that Cassius brought in someone called Boss Nicholas to support him," the butler said with his head lowered. "That person is highly skilled. Even Devotee Horace is no match for him."
"Boss Nicholas?!" John's eyes widened, and the veins on his neck bulged!
Someone with great influence and with the surname Nicholson wasn't common in the underworld. It couldn't possibly be anyone else other than Xavier Nicholson's son!
"D*mn it! Him again!" John flew into a rage, his hair standing on end.
He took several deep breaths before muttering, "To think Xavier's son is so skilled. Even the ancient martial arts successor of the Stewarts couldn't defeat him! Fortunately, I had the foresight to target his sister instead of confronting him head-on! Otherwise, the losses would have been devastating!
Seeing the change in his expression, the butler tentatively asked, "Sir, should we send someone to bring Miss Shannon back?"
John's eyes flickered for a moment, then he shook his head and said, "No, don't rush to bring her back."
He considered that Shannon was aware of his plot to kill Xavier back in the day. If he pushed too hard, she might reveal the truth to Kingsley!
He believed that Kingsley was only focused on Felix and the others, and he could catch him off guard from the shadows. Little did he know that Kingsley had already captured the absolute loyalty of Cassius and his wife by using both kindness and authority. Shannon had already revealed the truth to Kingsley.
While chaos reigned in the Timothy Family, Alice had already returned to her office.
She had been preoccupied with her thoughts since leaving the director's office earlier.
She was concerned about whether Kingsley offending business magnates like Felix and Matt would lead to any danger. She was also worried that she might have left herself vulnerable and given them something to use as leverage against Kingsley.
"Sigh..." Alice let out a deep sigh, sitting at her desk and burying her head in her arms.
Hearing her sigh, her colleague, who had been diligently working at his desk, suddenly looked up. "Dr. Kramer, you're back!"
"Yes." Alice, feeling down, only answered with one word. However, her usual icy demeanor was something everyone was accustomed to. Thus, the colleague didn't catch anything unusual and simply informed her, "Dr. Kramer, Dr. Lynch came by just now. He said Mr. Nicholson is looking for you and asked you to go to VIP Room 10 in the Second Inpatient Department."
Upon hearing that Kingsley was looking for her, Alice immediately perked up.
Without a second's hesitation, she stood up and walked out.
Arriving at VIP Room 10, Alice lightly knocked on the door before entering.
Inside the room, Shannon was lying on the hospital bed, resting with her eyes closed, her face still pale.
Kingsley and Cassius were sitting on the couch next to her, engaged in a low conversation. Occasional phrases like "underworld gangs," "territorial disputes," and "firearms" could be heard.
Jude's heart raced as he listened, standing there feeling utterly helpless. His two eyes were fixed on the ground, not daring to look up!
