Chapter 41


    “Lancer, has the invitation for Coliree Group’s pre-bid conference been sent out?”“The invitations


    haven’t been officially sent out, Boss.”“What’s with the Lawson Family, then? Howe they’ve


    already received two invitations?”To that, Lancer exined, “A few of the big families and


    conglomerates in Cleapolis are on the insider’s list.”“Whose decision is this?”Hearing the displeasure in


    Kingsley’s tone, Lancer hurriedly exined, “Boss, Hades and I have been busy scouting for the


    enemies’ spies. Daniel Robinson is currently in charge of thepany’s affairs, and he’s the best at


    trading amongst all the soldiers on Coliree Ind. He might not stand out in the military, but he’s


    definitely a force to be reckoned with in the marketce. The enemies certainly won’t be able to see


    through it!”“Daniel Robinson?” Kingsley ordered. “Whoever made the decision, withdraw the Lawsons’


    invitations immediately!”“Yes, Boss!”Lancer wouldn’t ask questions but only follow orders.After hanging


    up, Kingsley checked his watch. “Today’s the twenty-third. I want to see you set up a live stream and


    eat sh*t by the end of this month.”At that, the crowd began whispering again.“Why does it feel like this


    dude is out of his mind? Could it be that he has experienced some kind of trauma and has gone


    nuts?”“He surely has! If his one call can influence Coliree Group, would he need to drive such a janky


    car?”“I bet he has been boasting for so long that he’s beginning to believe his own words. Typical


    delusional behavior!”Likewise, Peter looked at Kingsley as though he was some madman. “You act


    well, I’ll give you that. If Caleb hadn’t wanted to kick your a*s, I’d love to continue watching you act like


    a mad dog!”The crowd burst intoughter once again, extolling Peter for calling Kingsley a mad dog.On


    a high, Peter wanted to continue his taunts, but his phone suddenly rang at this time.With that, he


    answered it. “Hey, Dad. What’s up?”“What’s up?! Get the f*ck home now, that’s what! We’re in big


    trouble!” A voice thundered the moment Peter finished his words, causing his ears to buzz. “What


    happened, Dad?” he asked, baffled.“Coliree Group just withdrew our invitation! We’ve lost all our


    chances!” The head of the Lawson Family roared so loudly that everyone close by heard him. The


    news left Peter dumbfounded, and so did everyone else.The Lawsons’ invitations have really been


    withdrawn!Peter’s face nched instantly, and his hand holding the phone began shaking


    uncontrobly as well. “Dad, I-I don’t know anything about this… Did Coliree Group say


    why?”Meanwhile, he looked toward Kingsley in horror, and he thought his heart would jump out of his


    chest at any second.Could it really be… because of that phone call?!Shock and awe enveloped


    everyone’s gazes as their jaws dropped, looking like imbeciles.None of them believed a penniless


    young man such as Kingsley could actually shake up Coliree Group’s decision.It was Coliree Group, for


    heaven’s sake!Thispany was considered the prime existence in the six provinces of the north!Just


    then, Peter’s father spoke. “They didn’t say why, but if I were to guess, it might have something to do


    with ourpany’s drop in sales! Stop fooling around with your scoundrel friends ande back


    home at once!”It was at that that Peter huffed a murky breath.He could finally rx now.It doesn’t


    matter as long as it isn’t because of that phone call… Phew, what a relief!“Got it, Dad. I’ll go back as


    soon as I help Caleb take out the trash!”After hanging up, he roared at Kingsley with arms akimbo,


    saying, “D*mn, I nearly let you get away with it! You’ve got dumb luck, though. Coliree Group happens


    to be readjusting their policy.”With that, he scrutinized Kingsley’s austere clothing and janky ride, and


    he scolded himself for having such ridiculous thoughts.The crowd was relieved after hearing Peter’s


    words too. “What did I say? How can that broke loser be that powerful? He just got lucky!”However,


    Paige turned grim. She didn’t think the honored guest of their family her father had insisted on was


    really a penniless loser with dumb luck.“You made me break into a cold sweat. You’d better kneel and


    apologize today, or I’m going toe after you!”Peter took a step forward and balled his hand,


    intending to punch Kingsley in the face.He thought he had humiliated himself when he showed his


    flustered side out in public.However, before he could evennd his punch, Kingsley had already raised


    his right foot and booted him right on the chest.Thump! Peter was sent flying a couple of yards away,


    crashing into an SUV right behind him. At once, he spewed a mouthful of blood.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
