Kingsley answered the phone with one hand. "Hello, Mr. Parker."

Mason was the one who called him.

"Kingsley, I saw the news about the Nicholson Family Cemetery. What's going on?"

Mason had been helping Reene deal with the Clark Corporation for the past two days. He immediately realized the seriousness of the situation when he saw the news.

"Mr. Parker, it is still unclear what exactly happened. I am not in Cleapolis right now. I will only be back in about an hour!"

"I told you before that it is not safe to hand over the construction of the cemetery to the Lawson Family." Mason added solemnly, "Kingsley, do you think Jonah Lawson might have been the mastermind behind the explosion?!"

Jonah Lawson?

Kingsley felt his heart thump when he heard Mason's words.

In fact, he had been so caught up with the thought that it was the spies from Sweoya who tried to sabotage his plan that it had completely slipped his mind that Jonah also had a motive for committing the crime.

Not only that, it was the Lawson Family's Codrington Construction that contracted the construction of the entire cemetery!

They had all the resources and timing they needed if they had wanted to blow up the cemetery.

"Alright, Mr. Parker. I will start the investigation with the Lawsons." Kingsley narrowed his eyes and growled, "If the culprit really is Jonah, I promise to make him pay a heavy price!"

"Okay," Mason hummed as he pondered. "I'll still be working in the Clark Corporation. Call me anytime you need my help with anything."

"Alright. Let's talk about it when I get back to Cleapolis. I will get in touch with the young master of the Lawson Family first to dig for information."

After hanging up the call, Kingsley immediately made a call to Peter, to which the latter picked up almost the instant the phone rang.

"Hello? Boss! I heard about what happened!"

His shaky voice revealed how nervous and scared he must be at the moment.

Kingsley didn't expect him to have already confessed before he even asked about it.

"Peter, you should know what I am calling you for, yeah?"

"Of course I know, Boss! It is big news! How did the cemetery get blown up out of nowhere?" His tone sounded extremely anxious. "What the hell is going on here?!"

Kingsley frowned when he heard Peter's words. He could tell that Peter was not involved in this incident at all.

Instead of answering, Kingsley asked in return, "What about your father? What has he been up to recently?"

After all, it was Jonah who betrayed Xavier and planned to murder Mason in the first place.

That was why it was plausible that Jonah had kept Peter in the dark about his actions.

Take Trevis and Nicholas for example—they, too, didn't know the evil things Felix and Matt had done to the Nicholson Family!

"My father?" Peter paused for a second. "He has been on a business trip in Diosna City. He is out of town. Why do you ask?"

"He doesn't know about the incident at the cemetery?" Kingsley frowned.
