Just then, a crack sounded at that moment! A bone-chilling snap was suddenly heard from Gordon's neck! It was the sound of his bones getting crushed!!
At that very moment, the whole office became so silent that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone was terribly horrified by the sight of Gordon’s snapped neck! He was crushed to death right in front of their eyes!
Every one of the business elites inside the office became petrified and started to tremble in fear after seeing what had happened. It was especially so for Benjamin as he passed out instantly!
Thud! Kingsley threw Gordon's dead body toward Alex and warned him coldly, "This is how you'll end up if you mess around with Beene!"
After getting struck by the dead body, Alex fell to the ground as he feared for his life with goosebumps running all over his body. He pushed the corpse away hastily while screaming with all he had, "Ahhhhhh!
You murderer! You murdered him!!" "Him? That was just a piece of garbage." Wow, that’s cold. With that, Kingsley left the place with Keene right away.
It took a distance away from Neveah Store for Keene to finally snap out of shock. "K-Kingsley, did you really kill him?"
As her body trembled, she started to look through her purse in a flurry and hushed. "Here, take all this money and run away as far as possible! If the cops find you, just say that I did it—I killed him!" While saying that, she stuffed all her credit cards into his hands. "Get out of Cleapolis and live a decent life!"
Kingsley was touched by his sister’s attempt of sacrifice, but what came out of him was laughter. He returned the credit cards to Keene and replied gently, "Keene, don't worry. We'll be fine."
"How will that be possible? You killed Gordon! The Wynn Family won’t let you get away with it for sure! They'll use every possible way to get you executed!" Keene's eyes started to redden in her anxiety. "It's alright, Kingsley. There's no need to be afraid. Take this money and hide somewhere incognito. I'll go to jail for you.
I don't think the Wynn Family will make it too hard for me."
Kingsley took a step forward and hugged her trembling body to comfort herself. "Trust me, Keene. Everything will be fine."
Keene started to calm down in his wide and muscular embrace. "Really? Everything's gonna be okay? Please... don't be this reckless anymore..." While wiping the tears off her face, she continued, "Just let Serena do all the killing stuff..."
"Got it." Kingsley gently ran his finger through her fringe and tucked it behind her ears. "If things like this happen again, get hold of me immediately, okay?"
A helpless Reene sighed. "What’s there for you to do even if I—"
"How much more do you need?" he asked calmly. "I have money, so I can pay off the balance."
She shook her head and forced a bitter smile. "The deficit is too much... The Jacob Family has withdrawn the fund and
canceled all business cooperation, leaving the operation of Neveah Store to come to a halt. If I was to pay off the deficit, I'll need at least a few million. But if I want to cover the loss in the future, I'll probably need more than ten million in total..."
Kingsley teased her with a grin. "Just ten million? I can pay for it!"
"Don't joke with me. Even the Wynn Family would have a hard time taking out so much money at once." Reene sighed again. "I don't wish to get ten million at once, but I just hope to get a breather and a chance to help Neveah Store get through this hardship gradually. Unfortunately, out of all the investment companies in Cleapolis I've gone to, none of them is willing to help me, especially the Humming Group. They even tore my project proposal in front of me and had the security kick me out..."
