Chapter 710 Extending the Olive Branch


    However, to Kingsley''s surprise, a youngdy with such an impressive background seemed


    perfectly at ease in this humble shop. This sparked a hint of admiration within Kingsley.


    With that in mind, Kingsley stepped forward and politely said, "Excuse me, I would like to ask if


    Mr.… Is Cassius here?"


    He originally wanted to call him Mr. White but changed his wording at thest moment.


    "You''re looking for Cassius?" The woman''s eyes flickered with a trace of caution, but it was


    momentary. Kingsley appeared like a college student without any threats. Her initial wariness was


    merely a subconscious habit.


    "You''re looking for Cassius for what?" The woman discreetly sized up Kingsley. "He''s at the back


    organizing goods. Should I call him now, or would you like to wait?" she asked.


    "I''m not in a hurry. Waiting is fine." Kingsley smiled faintly.


    At that moment, a man''s voice came from the shop''s back entrance. "Shann, can youe here


    and take a look? Where should I put these notebooks?"


    With the voice, a man with sses walked over. It was Cassius!


    Cassius wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Shann, you..." Halfway through his sentence, he


    noticed Kingsley. He paused, and his eyes showed a pensive expression.


    The woman had a keen insight. "This person is looking for you. You can talk to him. I''ll go check on


    something in the back." she whispered softly to Cassius.


    She left afterward to provide Cassius and Kingsley with a space for a private conversation.


    "You are..." Cassius adjusted his sses.


    "Are you one of Victoria''s subordinates?" he asked confusedly.


    He vaguely remembered this young man breaking Axel''s leg during the Underworld Force Meeting.


    Shortly after, Victoria stood up and imed he hade with her.


    However, he left the meeting halfway through, so he did not witness the scene where Kingsley took


    out the Northern Draken Tag and when Kevin arrived with his troops.


    "Let me introduce myself. My name is Kingsley Nicholson." Kingsley extended his right hand and


    shook hands with Cassius.

    "I''m not actually Miss Jeanne''s subordinate. Strictly speaking, I''m not from the underworld."


    Cassius'' eyes flickered. "So why did youe to see me today?"


    "Well, even though I''m not from the underworld, I want to form my underworld force," Kingsley said


    honestly.


    "And Mr. White, you are the leader of the Nightfall Gang and were familiar with underworld matters.


    So, I''m asking you to return to the underworld and help me—"


    Before Kingsley could finish his sentence, Cassius shook his head.


    "I have retired from the underworld and have no intention of getting involved in its affairs again."


    He looked at Kingsley.


    "I''ve heard that everyone except Victoria and Baron''s people was arrested at the Underworld Force


    Meeting. The bosses were sentenced to death, and their subordinates received heavy sentences!


    "The underworld is in turmoil now, and I absolutely don''t want to get involved anymore! All I want


    now is to live peacefully with my wife and children in this secluded ce!"


    Kingsley felt a mix of emotions when he saw Cassius'' resolute expression.


    He knew Cassius was worried about his family being left without care if something happened to


    him, so he decided to retire from the underworld.


    It must be said that he was a good man, a good husband, and also a good father.


    But it was a pity to see such a talented person go to waste, and Kingsley felt somewhat regretful.


    After pondering for a while, Kingsley sighed. "Fine, I don''t like to impose on others. Since you''ve


    made up your mind, then I—"


    He was cut off in the middle of his sentence once more.


    Bang!


    A loud noise rang out as someone kicked and shattered the ss door of the stationery shop!
