Chapter 557 Assault in Public!


    "The Foxes wanted to use the Wynns to threaten me, so I simply yed along with their scheme."


    Kingsley smiled lightly before adding, "I can only say it''s killing two birds with one stone. I wouldn''t


    call it a bloodless kill."


    By bringing out 150 million, he not only resolved the Wynns'' entanglement but also shattered the


    Fox Family''s conspiracy.


    Indeed, it was killing two birds with one stone!


    Hearing the spections and discussions from the crowd, Mia suddenly raised her head and red


    at him, shouting, "It''s you! You''ve destroyed my happiness! First, you took Ethan away from me, and


    now you''ve made Nichs cancel the engagement! It''s always you! It''s all because of you!!!"


    Kingsley shrugged in denial while extending his hands. "Nichs left when he saw no benefits. You


    can''t me me for that, can you?"


    "Yes, I can and I will! It''s all your fault!" She then turned her fierce gaze toward Reene.


    "And you! You''ve brought this disaster upon us! You must have been behind it all! It has to be you!


    I''ll make you all pay!"


    As she spoke, she struggled to rise from the ground and started looking around in a dazed manner,


    as if searching for something.


    In the next moment, her eyes lit up, and Mia briskly approached the nearby dining table. There, she


    saw a gleaming silver dining knife resting on the table!


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Crack!


    Rushing over, she seized the dining knife and swiftly charged toward Kingsley fiercely!


    All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and no one reacted in time!


    The first to spring into action was the five Coliree Warriors in ck suits. They were about to rush


    forward to protect Kingsley when someone already swiftly rushed out from the crowd in the next


    second. Mia''s wrist was firmly seized, and with a sudden force exerted, her delicate wrist snapped.


    ng!


    The dining knife in her hand also fell to the ground.


    "Ah! My hand!!!" Clutching her wrist, she curled up on the ground and cried out in agony.


    Only then did the bystanders snap back to reality. None of them had anticipated her assaulting


    someone in public. To their even greater surprise, the person who rushed out turned out to be


    Thomas himself.


    "D*mn... That''s quite a scene! If it weren''t for Lieutenant Baxton''s intervention, she would have killed


    someone today!"


    "Li-Lieutenant Baxton seems to have disabled her hand directly! Such strength truly befits a Qustia


    soldier!"


    "But... Isn''t this a bit too much? Mia wasn''t attempting to assassinate a military lieutenant or


    anything. Did he really have to be so ruthless—" The person paused halfway through their words


    and suddenly stopped talking. Other guests also ceased their discussions in an instant.


    Suddenly, everyone cast their incredulous gazes at Kingsley...


    At this moment, they all realized a problem. The lieutenant of the prestigious Sris Military District


    is actually rushing forward to protect Kingsley at the first moment. And he isn''t holding back in his


    actions! W-What is the reason behind this?!


    Suddenly, a chilling thought slowly emerges in the hearts of everyone as if confirming their


    spections.


    Thud!


    Thomas stood tall and saluted Kingsley!


    However, before he could utter "Ares," Kingsley interrupted him, "I remember you. You''re Thomas


    Baxton, a lieutenant captain under General Ignatov, right?"


    "Yes, sir!" Thomas understood that Kingsley did not want his identity revealed, so he refrained from


    further speaking. However, his eyes were filled with fanaticism as he nodded fervently.


    He never expected that the esteemed Ares would remember the name of a mere lieutenant captain


    like himself.


    Just a moment ago, when Kingsley made his appearance, Thomas had already recognized him!


    However, being aware of his own inferior status, he did not dare approach Kingsley or initiate a


    conversation. Nevertheless, he strategically positioned himself as close to Kingsley as possible


    within the crowd as he longed to be in his proximity.


    Therefore, he was the first to react when Mia picked up the knife to attack Kingsley.


    Being nearby, he was even faster than the five Coliree Warriors in taking action!


    Witnessing Thomas salute Kingsley, the onlookers were left utterly dumbfounded.
