J Just a moment… I’ll transfer the money right away! Dean stammered, offering no resistance this time. The hundreds of martial arts students had lost their fighting spirit, too afraid to even make a sound.
Only fellow martial artists could truly comprehend how terrifying Kingsley was to have thrown Ivan off the ring so effortlessly.
Once Lauren confirmed the 60 million had been transferred, she gestured to leave.
Lets go ! Jerry, looking ashen, managed a bitter smile and said, Miss, Mr. Baldwin, I wont be returning to headquarters.
I need to go back to Rhodes residence to recover.
Lauren nodded sympathetically at his severe injuries and replied, Go ahead, Jerry.
Since you were injured on company business, Mom will surely provide you with the best medicine for recovery.
I failed by not heeding Mr. Baldwins warning, and I don’t deserve Mrs. Rhodes medicine, Jerry said, shaking his head.
Whether these injuries heal or not, theyll serve as a lifelong lesson
Kingsley spoke calmly, Your injury is in the energy core area, one of a warriors vital points.
It needs immediate treatment, or it could end your martial arts career.
Your words ring true, Mr. Baldwin.
If only I had listened sooner, Jerry responded bitterly.
Kingsley remained silent, showing no intention of helping Jerry recover.
The mans arrogance and previous hostility toward Kingsley meant he saw no reason to help anyone beyond Lauren in the Rhodes family
The elite Rhodes family bodyguards accompanying Jerry stood in shame, staying silent.
Their previous contempt for Kingsley had been replaced by the humbling realization that they were nothing more than clowns in comparison.
Jerry, victory and defeat are part of a martial artists path.
Go home and focus on your recovery, Lauren said kindly before leaving for Rhodes Corporation with Kingsley
While 60 million was not an astronomical sum for Rhodes Corporation, recovering it from the remaining forces in the Northern District sent shockwaves through the company.
After all, few had believed Lauren could actually get the money back.
Ms. Rhodes, you’re amazing! I can’t believe you actually got the money back, Eunice exclaimed with admiration
Lauren shook her head and replied, I didnt get the money back Dr. Baldwin did
Eunices excitement froze as she looked at Kingsley in disbelief, who was casually sipping tea on the couch.
She wondered how this man, whom Tiana had always looked down upon, had not only become Rhodes Corporations fifth director in minutes but had also helped recover 60 million dollars that seemed impossible to retrieve.
Just as doubt began creeping into Eunices mind, she quickly dismissed it
Tiana was someone she unconditionally admired and respected if Tiana said Kingsley was just a gold digger, then it must be true.
Ms. Rhodes, congratulations! The company really needs you ! Ms. Rhodes, we old timers arent worth a fraction of your talent.
Solving this buge problem right after your return we must report this to the board and get you recognized! Ms. Rhodes, we all noticed what youve done for the company.
We can’t wait for you to be our CEO and lead us again! Marcus led a group of employees who were not aligned with Michael to offer their congratulations.
Everyone in the company knew this was a power struggle between the CEO and the Vice CEO, or more bluntly, internal friction between Rhodes Corporation family members.
Michael envied Laurens talent and influence, while Lauren had always looked down on her cousin.
Now, employees of Rhodes Corporation were faced with a delicate choice.
For the sake of their future careers and financial prospects, they had to decide whether to side with
Michael or show loyalty to Lauren a decision that required careful calculation
After dealing with a stream of well wishers, Lauren dismissed the last of them and slammed her office door shut.
Locking it firmly, she strolled over to the couch.
Kingsley smiled and said, It looks like you have quite a few supporters in your company.
Most are truly on my side, but some are Michaels spies
I don’t have the patience to deal with them, Lauren replied with a hint of annoyance.
Kingsley frowned.
Hearing you say that, I can’t help but wonder why does the Rhode familys leadership allow this infighting
? Wouldnt it be better for everyone if you and Michael worked together to grow the corporation? Lauren rolled her eyes
If only everyone thought like you.
The truth is, my rivalry with Michael reflects a deeper battle among the familys higher ups.
Kingsley shook his head.
Big family politics sounds exhausting.
Laurens lips curled into a playful smile.
They might be, but I’m not.
Im carefree, Dr. Baldwin, because all I care about is you.
She then gracefully settled herself on Kingsleys lap, wrapping her arms around his neck as her perfume wafted toward him.
Kingsley froze, his body stiffening.
Was she really planning on starting an office romance ? Kingsley began awkwardly, Ms. Rhodes, this is your office.
don’t you think this might be… inappropriate ? Lauren leaned in until their faces were nearly touching and whispered, don’t worry, I locked the door.
Dr. Baldwin, why are you trembling? Is this your first time? Kingsley coughed, trying to appear composed. Straightening up, he forced a confident tone.
Im no rookie.
Ms. Rhodes, on the other hand, you’re giving off major beginner vibes.
Lauren bit her lip playfully, her voice turning husky as she said, Really? Then why don’t you prove it to me? Its simple help me take off these stockings.
Remember, you won, so theyre yours now.
Kingsley was left speechless, his eyes widening in surprise.
Meanwhile, in another office on the same floor of Rhodes Corporation, Michael violently slapped Cindys bottom as she rose from his lap
Cindys face showed a mix of pain and resentment as she complained, Mr. Rhodes, whats making you so angry? Youve been different ever since Ms. Rhodes returned.
Michael snarled, Shut up! Havent you seen how many people are sucking up to that little bitch since she came back? I’m the CEO and spokesperson of Rhodes Corporation, not Lauren, yet these idiots still flock to her !! Cindy tried to calm him down, saying, Sir, try to look at the bright side.
Ms. Rhodes did manage to recover that 60 million for the company.
To be honest, that was quite an achievement nobody else could have done it.
Michael let out a cold laugh and sneered
Oh? So you’re on Laurens side now? You think shes so impressive? Cindy whispered, I’m not supporting her
Its just that, as a woman, I admire her capabilities.
And Mr. Baldwin beside her is quite remarkable too.
I heard he personally forced Madblade Martial Academy to return the money.
Michaels gaze grew colder as he grabbed Cindys dress, yanking it up with a sneer.
His hand roughly slid underneath as he spat venomously, So what now? don’t think I didnt notice how you were eyeing that Kingsley during the meeting earlier
He added, You’re not falling for him, are you? Hoping hell take you to bed? If thats the case, I might as well let you be his woman.
He laughed and mocked cruelly, But come on, do you really think someone like Kingsley would give you the time of day? Compared to Lauren, you’re nothing! His cruel words and rough treatment brought tears to Cindys eyes.
Yet, she did not dare resist
Being Michaels personal secretary meant enduring both physical and emotional abuse, acting as his punching bag when he needed to vent The only consolation was the generous compensation. Whenever Michael had his fill and entered his calm period, he would leave her with a stack of cash. To Cindy, it was worth it
After all, compared to her friends some toiling endlessly as nurses in overcrowded hospitals, others slogging away at dead end office jobs for measly pay, or even those selling drinks and themselves at nightclubs her situation felt like blessing
Madblade Martial Academy isnt someone to mess with, Michael muttered after pushing Cindy away. For that good for nothing Kingsley to get 60 million from a psycho like Rodney, he must have some real skill
Kingsleys support of Lauren had created an invisible threat to Michaels position.
He recalled Kingsleys earlier warning about putting him in his place something Michael had dismissed at the time, but now he could not help but feel concerned
Michael pulled out his phone with a dark expression and called Jerry.
He needed to know why Jerry had not used the Madblade Martial Academy situation to eliminate, or at least seriously injure Kingsley when he had the charte.
Jerry, I need an explanation about what happened at Madblade Martial Academy, Michael demanded as soon as the call connected.
Explanation ? I don’t have any, Jerry replied, his voice weak Ms. Rhodes and Kingsley got that money back through their own abilities, fair and square.
Michael flew into a rage.
I don’t give a damn about their abilities! I want to know why you didnt take the opportunity to eliminate that Baldwin guy! Jerry let out a bitter laugh and said, Eliminate hiin? How exactly was I supposed to do that? He had barely escaped alive from Malblade Martial Academy.
Michael said darkly, Jerry, your attitude is very concerning
don’t forget that both Rhodes Corporation and the entire Rhodes family might end up in my hands.
If you keep wavering like this instead of choosing the right person to follow, how do you expect to achieve that comfortable retirement youve been dreaming of ? Jerry snapped, Mr. Rhodes, spare me the talk about the future.
I don’t care who ends up running Rhodes Corporation.
