Chapter 9

livid with rage while Ysabel was crying. “Reene Wynn, you evil wench! How can you drag us down to hell with you?! Oh, heavens…”Reene was rendered dumbfounded.“Kingsley, you… You’ve messed up big time…”However, Kingsley grabbed Reene’s hand, stood up, swept his gaze across the room, and said with zero enthusiasm, “Since the bet has been made, and I have no interest in your family banquet, we’ll be leaving. No need to see us out.”With that, he led Reene out of the hall.“Kingsley… Kingsley Nicholson!”After exiting the hotel, Reene flung Kingsley’s arm away. “Kingsley, what are you doing? Do you know what Neveah means to me?!”“I do, and it’s exactly that that I want to help you retain it.”“But…” Reene’s eyes turned red-rimmed. “But you don’t know anything about the stakes. The Windsor’s influence is far greater than you imagine.”Kingsley took a step forward and fixed his light brown eyes on her, asking, “Reene, do you trust me?”naturally do, but…”“No buts then.”Kingsley grinned, then changed the subject abruptly. “Then again, Reene, I’m famished. I miss the braised short ribs you used to make!”Sure enough, Reene yielded in the face of her little brother’s ‘pestering’.“Oh, well, what will be will be.” At this point, she could only sigh. “I’ll think of a way to engage with Coliree Group. C’mon, let’s go home and eat…” Reene’s home was located in an average mansion neighborhood in Sector 4 of Cleapolis.Worse than some but better than many.After pulling over at the front of the mansion, Reene turned to Kingsley. “Kingsley, you head inside while I’ll go and get some ingredients at the local supermarket. The password for the main door is six zeros.”“Why don’t I go with you?”“Nah, it’s fine. The supermarket is real close. Go inside, take a shower or a nap.”Kingsley nodded at that. He indeed needed a good shower. Besides, he hadn’t had time to sit and take a breather ever since leaving Coliree Island.After entering the mansion, he went to the bathroom on the second floor.However, the sound of a booming shower came from inside, and it baffled him.
