The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power novel Chapter 640

"Mr. Nicholson, it's me." A strange accent sounded on the phone. "May I ask when you can pick up the batch of goods?"

As soon as Kingsley heard the voice, he instantly recognized that the caller was one of the other two members of Team Nightcrawler, Cedric Stanton. "Mr. Field, what's the matter? Can't I keep them at your place for a while longer?"

"Mr. Nicholson, I am also aware that it's hard for you to deal with such a large quantity of goods—" Cedric explained vexatiously, "—but it seems that Qustia's police force has targeted the stock in our warehouse. So, I fear they might take action if you don't come and pick up the goods. Can you check if you are available these two days and bring your men to come and pick up the goods? That way, we can quickly go into hiding and lay low for a while."

Kingsley pondered for a moment upon hearing that before he nodded and agreed, "Sure. I will bring my men over tomorrow afternoon."

"Excellent! I shall send you the address, then. See you tomorrow."

Cedric sent Kingsley the pick-up address a few minutes after he hung up. 'No. 41, Atlaren.'

Once Kingsley obtained the address, an icy look flashed across his eyes as he contemplated if he should just arrest Cedric and his partner when he picked up the goods tomorrow. However, he quickly dismissed that thought. Since I have now decided to use these two spies as my bait, I had better take advantage of them a little longer. I don't have to rush to arrest them as long as they are still under my control.

Afterward, Kingsley called Kenny, informing Kenny to bring at least 30 men with him tomorrow afternoon to Atlaren to pick up something.

Kenny took the order without asking further questions.

…

The next day, Reene got up early and drove to the company. The scene of her cuddling with Kingsley yesterday still lingered in her mind. In fact, she could already vaguely feel that her feelings for Kingsley were silently changing. And because of that, Reene left the house before Kingsley woke up. She decided to confront her relationship with Kingsley after she stayed in her office for a few days to sort out her feelings.

Not long after Reene arrived at her company, she received a call from Mia. On the phone, Mia lamented that she was extremely ashamed for having constantly bullied Reene while she lived with the Wynns all these years. Therefore, she wanted to meet Reene and formally apologize to her.

Since Reene no longer wished to see anyone from the Wynns, she initially couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Mia at all. Yet, when Reene heard Mia wailing on the phone, saying that she wouldn't be able to have a peaceful sleep for the rest of her life if she couldn't apologize to her in person, Reene couldn't help but give in to Mia's unceasing pestering and agree to take 30 minutes out of her afternoon's schedule to meet the annoying woman.

After the call with Mia, Reene instinctively wanted to ask Kingsley for his opinion. Nonetheless, she kept her phone away as soon as she recalled the intimate cuddle from yesterday. I should see Kingsley again after I have identified my true feelings for him…

As for Kingsley, he was completely unaware of Reene's inner dilemma. When he noticed that Reene wasn't home after he woke up from his slumber, he started his day with his physical training in the yard as per usual.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Punch after punch, Kingsley sent imposing and vigorous strikes into the air, and he didn't stop until he was drenched in sweat.

Kingsley stared at his fists as he shook his head and silently thought, As expected, the feeling of training alone is different from engaging in a fierce battle on the battlefield, after all! Something is missing when I train by myself. But the problem is, I can no longer go to the battlefield at all now. As the citizens of many countries are now in dire straits after the flames of war raging some time ago, the leaders from all countries have reached a consensus that the world will have a ceasefire for ten years. No nation dares to go against public wrath and start a war again! Likewise, it is precisely why the Empire of the Setting Sun only dares to send their spies to wreak havoc even though they continue harboring sinister plots against Qustia!

With that, Kingsley sighed, feeling powerless.
