When Benedict asked about the matter, Nico suddenly remembered a few years ago when Charles had assisted Cedrick in investigating the milk powder case. At that time, they had agreed to have a good fight once the issue had been resolved.
He had even made bold statements, declaring that if he lost, he would submit his letter of resignation on the spot and step down from the position of deputy director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Unexpectedly, he found himself caught up in a whirlwind of subsequent events, including the wedding of Kieran and Inez and his own engagement party with Summer.
He was so absorbed in his busy schedule that he had completely forgotten about it.
Charles had also forgotten about the matter.
“No, I haven’t fought with him, but I am much stronger than Charles. He is definitely no match for me,” Cedrick asserted confidently.
“Really? That’s great. Uncle Nico, you’re awesome!”
A mischievous smile formed on Benedict’s face as an idea began to take shape in his mind.
Being praised by Benedict brought a sense of comfort to Nico.
He quickly brushed off the embarrassing moment of losing at chess and focused on the present.
“After everything is settled, I will challenge Charles to a duel and teach him a lesson on your behalf!”
The more he spoke, the prouder he grew. He showcased his strengths and abilities to his young nephew, even considering demonstrating a set of military boxing move right then and there.
Benedict played along, his face filled with admiration while his shiny black eyes hid mischievous thoughts.
Cloudington Group’s recent stock market crash had caused the Cloud family to lose billions in about three days.
Jessamyn’s father, Ignatius Cloud, had made two consecutive attempts to visit Charles at Newton Group, bringing gifts with him. However, on both occasions, he had been denied access to meet Charles.
Cedrick was extremely busy, constantly shuttling between the company and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, making him difficult to be tracked down. Despite Ignatius’ numerous attempts to meet him, he failed to catch a glimpse of Cedrick even once.
In a desperate attempt to keep the Cloud family afloat in the business world, Ignatius had no choice but to swallow his pride and keep pestering Charles until the latter was willing to meet with him.
Right then, Charles was in the midst of a meeting taking place in the spacious conference room of Newton Group.
Charles’ approach to business was just as ruthless as Cedrick’s. Having been in power for five years, he had to use certain methods to preserve his position in Newton Group.
Anyone who dared to provoke or oppose him would face severe consequences. They would be blacklisted from the industry and would never find employment in a reputable company again.
When Ignatius made another attempt to visit, the assistant hesitated to inform Charles, opting to temporarily brush Ignatius off.
The meeting lasted for a full hour.
Charles maintained a serious demeanor, showing no signs of fatigue on his face. He would occasionally take a sip of coffee to keep himself refreshed.
