Jonah was gasping for breath as he pleaded, "Boss Nicholson! Can you release Ken? Will you not listen even if I beg you?!"
"Master Lawson, there's no need to beg me so desperately. We will meet soon," Kingsley replied, his eyes devoid of emotion and his voice icy cold.
"Save your pleas for when we meet. Who knows? Maybe it may actually work and save your own life."
"You!" Jonah didn't expect Kingsley to be so unyielding!
Before he could say anything else, the phone line went dead!
Kingsley hung up the phone, threw it on the ground, and said to Mickey, "That's enough. Stop."
"Yes!" Mickey took a step back, grinning and shaking his bloodied arm.
His fist was already covered in blood.
Still, since Kingsley didn't tell him to stop earlier, he had gritted his teeth and continued swinging his fist.
"Mr. Lawson, how are you feeling?" Kingsley approached Kendall and asked mildly, "Are you still planning to take Miss Ansley home?"
"I-I wouldn't." Kendall forcefully shook his head as he slurred his words.
Most of his teeth had been knocked out courtesy of Mickey's tender ministrations. Plus, his face was swollen, causing his speech to be unclear.
Kingsley lightly brushed his shoulder with his finger. "Oh, dear. Your clothes are covered in blood. So, do you mind the dirt now?"
"N-No." Kendall's eyes were filled with nothing but desperation as he mumbled, "B-Boss Nicholson, please let me go. I know I was in the wrong."
As he spoke, another tooth fell out of his mouth, accompanied by a burst of fresh blood.
Kingsley shook his head. "You shouldn't be apologizing to me."
Kendall, who had been dazed from the beating, suddenly felt a sense of relief upon hearing Kingsley's reply.
He quickly turned to Yulia and stuttered, "M-Miss Ansley, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have forced you to serve me. I shouldn't have used schemes and tricks..."
Then, he looked at Ethan. "K-Kid, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have mistreated and beaten you over a small matter..."
