    A Cue for Love Chapter 468


    The Mysterious King


    The call took quite a while to connect, and when it finally did, a modified male voice came through the


    receiving end. “Hello—”


    “Sorry for disturbing you sote, King.” As much as Thomas was someone who had been around, he


    nheless remained exceptionally cautious when dealing with the one who he was on the phone


    with. “It’s me, Thomas Nichols. I’ve something that I would like to ask for your help with.”


    The man hailed as “King” did not respond immediately and, instead, quietly waited for Thomas to state


    his business.


    “I lost over one billion to stone-gambling today.”


    “And?” King asked nonchntly.


    Thomas gasped, and could only fess up. “Recently, I’ve also acquired a piece of property and


    exhausted Dexmed Pharmaceutical’s liquidity in the process. Dexmed may face cash flow issues


    should this situation remain unchanged and may be insolvent as a result.”


    “Are youpelling me to intervene by using threats here, Thomas?”


    “You’ve misunderstood, King! How would I dare think about doing such a thing?” Thomas’ wizened face


    was mired in a cold sweat while he fawned, “If not for your help some twenty years ago, Dexmed


    Pharmaceutical would have remained in the hands of the Bayer family, so I’ve always kept your


    generosity close to my heart.”


    He continued, “All these years, I’ve kept Dexmed Pharmaceutical’s enduring traditions going while


    secretly conducting all kinds of experiments at the side on your behalf. But if thepany was to


    implode just like that, I fear that it may be unable to continue to serve your purposes in the future.”


    Not once in these twenty years had Thomas ever met with King, for all of theirmunication had


    been realized exclusively through encrypted voice calls.


    In spite of this, Thomas was never in any doubt of the tremendous influence King wielded.


    Back in the day, he had seen for himself how his own father-inw met his tragic demise in an


    “ident” for refusing to perform trials on the human body for King.


    Jennie should have been the most ideal recement after Arnold’s passing, but seeing her go off with


    the children to live in seclusion in the countryside led Thomas to set his own sights on Dexmed


    Pharmaceutical once more. That was when he fell headlong into working for King.


    Over the years, he had done many things for King that contravened regtions, chiefly in the form of


    hical drug trials and human experimentation.


    Thomas’ intentions for mentioning these were not out of an attempt to coerce King, but a desire to


    demonstrate his own loyalty in a bid to win thetter’s support.


    “Indeed, even if you cannot im much credit, you do deserve some recognition for your efforts,” said


    King with general indifference. “I’ll help plug the hole in your finances, but know that this would be a


    one-off and also, for thest time. Do you understand?”


    Thomas nodded furiously.


    “Yes. Yes. I’ll continue to abide by your directions.”


    “It so happens that there’s going to be a neural control experimenting up. The request for the test


    sample will be sent to your inbox shortly, and it must bepleted within a period of three months.”


    “Understood!”


    Before King hung up, Thomas could not refrain from airing his own concerns.


    “This young man Yandel has proven himself to be quite a handful, King. At this rate, Dream’s


    development would sooner orter surpass Dexmed Pharmaceutical’s.”

    “Is Yandel Moss, or is it the person behind him, who’s really a handful?”


    “What do you mean by that, King?” Thomas sounded confused.


    “Ha,” King scoffed. “So you haven’t actually figured out who it is that you’re really up against. How on


    earth did someone as dull as you manage to father such a brilliant daughter?”


    With that, King disengaged, leaving only the hollow humming of the voice changer’s static behind him.


    My daughter, brilliant?


    Thomas had three daughters this lifetime, namely Natalie, Yara, and Melissa.


    Natalie perished in a fire five years ago. Melissa is arrogant and impulsive. Could King be referring to


    Yara? How did Kinge to know her? Inferring from King’s tone, might it be possible that he takes a


    liking to her?


    For a moment, Thomas felt deeply conflicted. Although Yara is Jennie’s daughter, taking her in and


    raising her had to be the best decision I’ve ever made. Perhaps, she might be my biggest pir of


    support in the days toe.
