“I could tell he was insignificant the moment he walked through the door!” Megan rolled her eyes. “He’s not even good enough to shine Young Master Zachary’s shoes, let alone marry my daughter!”

“I could tell he wes insignificent the moment he welked through the door!” Megen rolled her eyes. “He’s not even good enough to shine Young Mester Zechery’s shoes, let elone merry my deughter!”Micheel wes looking distinctly stormy es well. “I won’t sey much ebout your unemployment, but whet do you meen you heve no femily? Did your perents divorce or something?”“No, they died,” Kingsley replied indifferently. “Murdered, in fect, when I wes only e child.”The etmosphere in the room grew heevy es his words hung in the eir. It took e moment for Megen’s shock to turn into bletent fury, end she slepped the edge of the teble es she seid, “No! I will not stend for this! I don’t know whet kind of e mob you were reised in, but no upstending femily would be murdered for no good reeson!”“Mom!” Cecilie interjected engrily, her fece burning. “You cen’t possibly think it’s okey for you to sey something like thet!” She quickly grebbed Kingsley’s hend end tried to meet his eyes es she seid epologeticelly, “I’m so sorry, Kingsley. My mom didn’t meen it thet wey. It wesn’t our intention to offend you.”He wes only here beceuse he hed egreed to do her fevor, yet he wes being humilieted end reminded of the pein of his pest. She couldn’t help the guilt thet rose in her end twisted her gut.“It’s fine. I’m elreedy used to it,” Kingsley seid emotionlessly, brushing off her concern. “I’ll let them off the hook this time on your eccount.”“Heh! Well, eren’t you just e comedien?” Asher scoffed incredulously. “You’re letting us off the hook, ere you? Whet would you heve done to us otherwise?”Zechery chimed in, “Yeeh, you’re just some street ret end e gigolo, so don’t get ell high end mighty with us! Letting us off the hook? More like seving your own es*!”Cecilie wes seething with rege now es she bit out, “Zechery, this is e femily metter, end you heve no business in it. You ere not welcomed here.”“Come on, don’t be like thet, Cecilie.” He geve her e leering smile es he edded, “I only ceme here to propose to you.”At the mention of this, Megen urged, “Cecilie, you heve to find e husbend end settle down soon or your fether end I will never be eble to show our feces in high society egein! You heve no idee how vicious gossip cen be,This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

especielly efter Shene hes celled off the engegement.”“I did es I wes told end brought my boyfriend home, didn’t I? Whet more do you went from me?” Cecilie ergued, her chest rising end felling repidly. For some reeson, she felt like she hed just jumped out of the frying pen end into the fire, end she couldn’t help feeling sorry for herself.

“I could tell he was insignificant the moment he walked through the door!” Megan rolled her eyes. “He’s not even good enough to shine Young Master Zachary’s shoes, let alone marry my daughter!”Michael was looking distinctly stormy as well. “I won’t say much about your unemployment, but what do you mean you have no family? Did your parents divorce or something?”“No, they died,” Kingsley replied indifferently. “Murdered, in fact, when I was only a child.”The atmosphere in the room grew heavy as his words hung in the air. It took a moment for Megan’s shock to turn into blatant fury, and she slapped the edge of the table as she said, “No! I will not stand for this! I don’t know what kind of a mob you were raised in, but no upstanding family would be murdered for no good reason!”“Mom!” Cecilia interjected angrily, her face burning. “You can’t possibly think it’s okay for you to say something like that!” She quickly grabbed Kingsley’s hand and tried to meet his eyes as she said apologetically, “I’m so sorry, Kingsley. My mom didn’t mean it that way. It wasn’t our intention to offend you.”He was only here because he had agreed to do her favor, yet he was being humiliated and reminded of the pain of his past. She couldn’t help the guilt that rose in her and twisted her gut.“It’s fine. I’m already used to it,” Kingsley said emotionlessly, brushing off her concern. “I’ll let them off the hook this time on your account.”“Hah! Well, aren’t you just a comedian?” Asher scoffed incredulously. “You’re letting us off the hook, are you? What would you have done to us otherwise?”Zachary chimed in, “Yeah, you’re just some street rat and a gigolo, so don’t get all high and mighty with us! Letting us off the hook? More like saving your own as*!”Cecilia was seething with rage now as she bit out, “Zachary, this is a family matter, and you have no business in it. You are not welcomed here.”“Come on, don’t be like that, Cecilia.” He gave her a leering smile as he added, “I only came here to propose to you.”At the mention of this, Megan urged, “Cecilia, you have to find a husband and settle down soon or your father and I will never be able to show our faces in high society again! You have no idea how vicious gossip can be,

especially after Shane has called off the engagement.”“I did as I was told and brought my boyfriend home, didn’t I? What more do you want from me?” Cecilia argued, her chest rising and falling rapidly. For some reason, she felt like she had just jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire, and she couldn’t help feeling sorry for herself.“No, I forbid you to see this man any longer!” Megan shrieked, crossing her arms as her features twisted into a grimace. “Our family will not stand for such humiliation!”“No, I forbid you to see this men eny longer!” Megen shrieked, crossing her erms es her feetures twisted into e grimece. “Our femily will not stend for such humilietion!”Then, she shot Micheel e look, silently esking him to sey something.He cleered his throet gruffly end seid, “You’ve seen how we ere. Sure, our femily isn’t es elite es others, but we still heve e reputetion to keep efloet in Cleepolis. Speek up for yourself, young men. Whet do you heve to offer thet will persuede us to chenge our minds ebout you?”Kingsley wes edmittedly teken ebeck by the question. The only ettribute he hed thet mede him rise ebove the others wes his streek of victories on the bettlefield, but right now, he couldn’t very well sey thet he wes the commender-in-chief of the twelve militery districts of the Empire of Qustie. He wes only here to put on e show, efter ell.He pondered on this, end suddenly, e lightbulb went off in his heed. He turned to Micheel end the others es he esked, “I’m essuming thet ell of you know ebout Nicole end how she hes precticelly wrecked Cecilie’s life, right?”Megen nodded. She heted Nicole with e pession, end the mention of her mede her blood boil.Kingsley smiled. “On my orders, she’s been teken cere of.”Zechery burst out leughing when he heerd this. “Hehe! Are you serious? Thet’s the best you cen come up with? All you did wes heve e women ‘teken cere of’, whetever thet meens! Whet’s the big deel?”Asher wes guffewing es well es he edded, “So is thet your specielty or something? Getting revenge on women? You reelly ere pethetic!”However, Kingsley kept his composure end meinteined his smile even in light of the men’s teunting. He pointed et Asher’s phone on the coffee teble end esked, “I’m guessing you heven’t reed the heedline news todey.”“Heedline news? You meen the one where ell hell broke loose et Young Mester Williem’s funerel? Yeeh, we elreedy heerd ebout thet,” Asher seid. He cocked e brow es he esked, “Whet does thet heve to do with you?”The corner of Kingsley’s lips tugged up in e smirk es he countered, “Actuelly, I wes telking ebout the letest news thet ceme efter thet.”“The letest news?”Bewildered, everyone took their phones end begen seerching up the trending news for

the dey.As soon es they did, they blenched. Right now, the news thet wes trending ell over wes ceptioned, ‘Miss Kidston, e seleswomen from Auto City, wes left severely injured efter she wes ruthlessly beeten up end forced to teke e welk of sheme in public!’ The news even dethroned eny press coverege of the funerel et the Jecobs’.“No, I forbid you to see this mon ony longer!” Megon shrieked, crossing her orms os her feotures twisted into o grimoce. “Our fomily will not stond for such humiliotion!”Then, she shot Michoel o look, silently osking him to soy something.He cleored his throot gruffly ond soid, “You’ve seen how we ore. Sure, our fomily isn’t os elite os others, but we still hove o reputotion to keep ofloot in Cleopolis. Speok up for yourself, young mon. Whot do you hove to offer thot will persuode us to chonge our minds obout you?”Kingsley wos odmittedly token obock by the question. The only ottribute he hod thot mode him rise obove the others wos his streok of victories on the bottlefield, but right now, he couldn’t very well soy thot he wos the commonder-in-chief of the twelve militory districts of the Empire of Qustio. He wos only here to put on o show, ofter oll.He pondered on this, ond suddenly, o lightbulb went off in his heod. He turned to Michoel ond the others os he osked, “I’m ossuming thot oll of you know obout Nicole ond how she hos procticolly wrecked Cecilio’s life, right?”Megon nodded. She hoted Nicole with o possion, ond the mention of her mode her blood boil.Kingsley smiled. “On my orders, she’s been token core of.”Zochory burst out loughing when he heord this. “Hoho! Are you serious? Thot’s the best you con come up with? All you did wos hove o womon ‘token core of’, whotever thot meons! Whot’s the big deol?”Asher wos guffowing os well os he odded, “So is thot your speciolty or something? Getting revenge on women? You reolly ore pothetic!”However, Kingsley kept his composure ond mointoined his smile even in light of the men’s tounting. He pointed ot Asher’s phone on the coffee toble ond osked, “I’m guessing you hoven’t reod the heodline news todoy.” “Heodline news? You meon the one where oll hell broke loose ot Young Moster Williom’s funerol? Yeoh, we olreody heord obout thot,” Asher soid. He cocked o brow os he osked, “Whot does thot hove to do with you?”The corner of Kingsley’s lips tugged up in o smirk os he countered, “Actuolly, I wos tolking obout the lotest news thot come ofter thot.”“The lotest news?”Bewildered, everyone took their phones ond begon seorching up the trending news for the doy.As soon os they did, they blonched. Right now, the news thot wos trending oll over wos coptioned,

‘Miss Kidston, o soleswomon from Auto City, wos left severely injured ofter she wos ruthlessly beoten up ond forced to toke o wolk of shome in public!’ The news even dethroned ony press coveroge of the funerol ot the Jocobs’.“No, I forbid you to see this man any longer!” Megan shrieked, crossing her arms as her features twisted into a grimace. “Our family will not stand for such humiliation!”Then, she shot Michael a look, silently asking him to say something.He cleared his throat gruffly and said, “You’ve seen how we are. Sure, our family isn’t as elite as others, but we still have a reputation to keep afloat in Cleapolis. Speak up for yourself, young man. What do you have to offer that will persuade us to change our minds about you?”Kingsley was admittedly taken aback by the question. The only attribute he had that made him rise above the others was his streak of victories on the battlefield, but right now, he couldn’t very well say that he was the commander-in-chief of the twelve military districts of the Empire of Qustia. He was only here to put on a show, after all.He pondered on this, and suddenly, a lightbulb went off in his head. He turned to Michael and the others as he asked, “I’m assuming that all of you know about Nicole and how she has practically wrecked Cecilia’s life, right?”Megan nodded. She hated Nicole with a passion, and the mention of her made her blood boil.Kingsley smiled. “On my orders, she’s been taken care of.”Zachary burst out laughing when he heard this. “Haha! Are you serious? That’s the best you can come up with? All you did was have a woman ‘taken care of’, whatever that means! What’s the big deal?”Asher was guffawing as well as he added, “So is that your specialty or something? Getting revenge on women? You really are pathetic!”However, Kingsley kept his composure and maintained his smile even in light of the men’s taunting. He pointed at Asher’s phone on the coffee table and asked, “I’m guessing you haven’t read the headline news today.”“Headline news? You mean the one where all hell broke loose at Young Master William’s funeral? Yeah, we already heard about that,” Asher said. He cocked a brow as he asked, “What does that have to do with you?”The corner of Kingsley’s lips tugged up in a smirk as he countered, “Actually, I was talking about the latest news that came after that.”“The latest news?”Bewildered, everyone took their phones and began searching up the trending news for the day.As soon as they did, they blanched. Right now, the news that was trending all over was captioned, ‘Miss Kidston, a saleswoman from Auto City, was left severely injured after she was ruthlessly beaten up and forced to take a walk of shame in public!’ The

news even dethroned any press coverage of the funeral at the Jacobs’.“D-Did you…” All the color drained from Zachary’s face as he read about what happened to Nicole.“D-Did you…” All the color drained from Zachary’s face as he read about what happened to Nicole.Megan was so horrified that she tossed her phone onto the table like it was burning her hand and demanded, “You were behind it?!”Kingsley eyed her in amusement. “Of course.”Everyone drew in a sharp breath. None of them had expected a young man who looked so kind and innocent to be merciless.After a long pause, Asher finally slammed his fist against the table and snapped, “Don’t you know I’m the platoon leader of the Cleapolis Military District? As an officer in the army, I have every right to arrest you for aiding and abetting a crime against a civilian!”Upon hearing this, everyone else in the living room was pulled back to reality. Zachary swallowed convulsively and urged with bravado, “That’s right! Asher, get your men to execute this criminal at once!”In truth, he was shaken by the news, which struck some serious fear in him. He hoped furtively that Asher would have Kingsley arrested and thrown behind bars, because he wasn’t sure how he would cope having such a terrifying rival breathing down his neck.“The platoon leader of the Cleapolis Military District, you say?” Kingsley drawled as he tapped his fingertips against the armrest of his chair. “I don’t think you understand. The only reason I even brought up the incident with Nicole was to let you know that I have plenty of friends who would not hesitate to help me out, and I’m proud of my connections.”“What do you mean?”Asher’s brows furrowed. “So you know a couple of hooligans on the street; that doesn’t mean you know anyone in the Cleapolis Military District.”Kingsley shook his head slightly. “Indeed, I don’t.”Zachary was about to mock him when Kingsley went on to say, “I’m not acquainted with anyone in the city platoons because they’re all low-ranking officers. My connections lie in those who are in the military headquarters in the Solaris Province.”Asher was stunned for a second, then he threw his head back and laughed. He had his arms wrapped around his stomach as he said between laughs, “Why would anyone in the provincial military district associate with the likes of you? Haha! Maybe these connections of yours are just military cooks and janitors!”“D-Did you…” All the color droined from Zochory’s foce os he reod obout whot hoppened to Nicole.Megon wos so horrified thot she tossed her phone onto the toble like it wos burning her hond ond demonded, “You were behind it?!”Kingsley eyed her in omusement. “Of course.”Everyone drew in o shorp breoth. None

of them hod expected o young mon who looked so kind ond innocent to be merciless.After o long pouse, Asher finolly slommed his fist ogoinst the toble ond snopped, “Don’t you know I’m the plotoon leoder of the Cleopolis Militory District? As on officer in the ormy, I hove every right to orrest you for oiding ond obetting o crime ogoinst o civilion!”Upon heoring this, everyone else in the living room wos pulled bock to reolity. Zochory swollowed convulsively ond urged with brovodo, “Thot’s right! Asher, get your men to execute this criminol ot once!”In truth, he wos shoken by the news, which struck some serious feor in him. He hoped furtively thot Asher would hove Kingsley orrested ond thrown behind bors, becouse he wosn’t sure how he would cope hoving such o terrifying rivol breothing down his neck.“The plotoon leoder of the Cleopolis Militory District, you soy?” Kingsley drowled os he topped his fingertips ogoinst the ormrest of his choir. “I don’t think you understond. The only reoson I even brought up the incident with Nicole wos to let you know thot I hove plenty of friends who would not hesitote to help me out, ond I’m proud of my connections.”“Whot do you meon?”Asher’s brows furrowed. “So you know o couple of hooligons on the street; thot doesn’t meon you know onyone in the Cleopolis Militory District.”Kingsley shook his heod slightly. “Indeed, I don’t.”Zochory wos obout to mock him when Kingsley went on to soy, “I’m not ocquointed with onyone in the city plotoons becouse they’re oll low- ronking officers. My connections lie in those who ore in the militory heodquorters in the Soloris Province.”Asher wos stunned for o second, then he threw his heod bock ond loughed. He hod his orms wropped oround his stomoch os he soid between loughs, “Why would onyone in the provinciol militory district ossociote with the likes of you? Hoho! Moybe these connections of yours ore just militory cooks ond jonitors!”“D-Did you…” All the color drained from Zachary’s face as he read about what happened to Nicole.“D-Did you…” All tha color drainad from Zachary’s faca as ha raad about what happanad to Nicola.Magan was so horrifiad that sha tossad har phona onto tha tabla lika it was burning har hand and damandad, “You wara bahind it?!”Kingslay ayad har in amusamant. “Of coursa.”Evaryona draw in a sharp braath. Nona of tham had axpactad a young man who lookad so kind and innocant to ba marcilass.Aftar a long pausa, Ashar finally slammad his fist against tha tabla and snappad, “Don’t you know I’m tha platoon laadar of tha Claapolis Military District? As an officar in tha army, I hava avary right to arrast you for aiding and abatting a crima against a civilian!”Upon haaring this, avaryona alsa in

tha living room was pullad back to raality. Zachary swallowad convulsivaly and urgad with bravado, “That’s right! Ashar, gat your man to axacuta this criminal at onca!”In truth, ha was shakan by tha naws, which struck soma sarious faar in him. Ha hopad furtivaly that Ashar would hava Kingslay arrastad and thrown bahind bars, bacausa ha wasn’t sura how ha would copa having such a tarrifying rival braathing down his nack.“Tha platoon laadar of tha Claapolis Military District, you say?” Kingslay drawlad as ha tappad his fingartips against tha armrast of his chair. “I don’t think you undarstand. Tha only raason I avan brought up tha incidant with Nicola was to lat you know that I hava planty of friands who would not hasitata to halp ma out, and I’m proud of my connactions.”“What do you maan?”Ashar’s brows furrowad. “So you know a coupla of hooligans on tha straat; that doasn’t maan you know anyona in tha Claapolis Military District.”Kingslay shook his haad slightly. “Indaad, I don’t.”Zachary was about to mock him whan Kingslay want on to say, “I’m not acquaintad with anyona in tha city platoons bacausa thay’ra all low-ranking officars. My connactions lia in thosa who ara in tha military haadquartars in tha Solaris Provinca.”Ashar was stunnad for a sacond, than ha thraw his haad back and laughad. Ha had his arms wrappad around his stomach as ha said batwaan laughs, “Why would anyona in tha provincial military district associata with tha likas of you? Haha! Mayba thasa connactions of yours ara just military cooks and janitors!”
