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.

Why do you ask?”“He doesn’t know about the incident at the cemetery?” Kingsley frowned.“Dad has never asked anything regarding Codrington Construction ever since he handed me the company. What is more, why would he still care about my small company when he has even left my brother in charge of the affairs of the head office?” He then lamented, “I am lucky Dad doesn’t know about this, or he would have ripped my skin off! The workers who were killed were all from our company! Just thinking about the compensation alone makes me want to die with them!”His bitter tone was all Kingsley needed to confirm that Peter was indeed not the perpetrator of this incident.“Alright, I got it.”Kingsley was just about to hang up the call when Peter quickly stopped him.“Hold on, Boss! What should I do about the compensation? According to the contract, the compensation for one person is at least several million! For a small construction company like us to pay out 20 to 30 million at one go, I—”“I will pay for the compensation,” Kingsley indifferently cut Peter off before he could finish his sentence. “Give 10 million to each of them! It is up to you how much your company wants to compensate. I will leave it to you to decide.”“Aw shucks!” Peter’s voice instantly sounded a lot more at ease. “I feel relieved to hear that from you! You are really a kind person!”Kingsley proceeded to abruptly hang up the phone without saying another word.His heart ached at that point.It was still fresh in his memory how the workers sat by the side of the road and had their boxed meals when he went over to look for Leroy.He never
