I Am the Ruler of All

When Kingsley returned home, Reene was dressed in a satin night dress and sitting on the couch in a daze. Thinking that she would need to surrender Neveah Department Store at noon the day after tomorrow, she felt depressed.

“Reene.” The man sat beside her and spoke gently. “Don’t worry, there will definitely be investments coming in when they see your capability.” He didn’t tell her about what happened earlier since she didn’t want him to visit the Humming Group, so he could only wait until noon the day after tomorrow. By then, he’d fix everything for her right off the bat.

Reene shook her head and said, “I’ve already asked everyone I could possibly ask for help, but none of them are willing to go against the Jacob Family—” She flipped her long, wavy hair to one side of her shoulder and lay down on his lap before lamenting, “My work all these years is about to fall into ruins—”

When Kingsley heard that, he comforted her while patting her arm, “Everything’s going to be fine. Trust me.”

At this moment, the doorbell destroyed their peaceful moment. Both Elijah and Ysabel’s screams resonated from outside. “Reene! Open up! Open the f*cking door right now!”

When she heard her adoptive parents’ voices, she sat up sharply. “Why are they here?” She flitted to the door and opened it.

Even before she could say anything, Ysabel pushed her and walked straight into the house, making Reene stumble. “Where is that b*stard?! Ask him to come out now!” Elijah followed behind Ysabel, entering the house with a darkened face.

Once they were inside, they marched right up to Kingsley as he sat on the couch. “You murderer! Get out of here now!” Elijah pointed at Kingsley and bellowed, “Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused us after killing Gordon from the legal department?!”
