Ronald's face lit up with satisfaction. He always knew he had King figured out.
Just imagine—once their organization took control of oil, diamonds, and healthcare, the world would be theirs to command. Decades of plotting had all led to this: reshaping the global order by seizing these vital resources.
After Ronald left, King relaxed into the sofa's cushions.
Brielle was about to descend the staircase when the doorbell rang, freezing her in place.
The butler answered the door, and in walked Kailee.
Kailee, booted out the night before, was feeling down but decided to roll the dice again. To her surprise, King was actually home.
In the past, she'd be lucky to see him once or twice out of ten visits, but lately, her luck seemed to be changing.
On her way over, she brushed past an older man—Ronald.
Ronald raised an eyebrow as he glanced back at Kailee.
So, this was the woman always hanging around King?
If King was now showing interest in women, maybe they could use that to their advantage.
Though King claimed he wanted Brielle to fall for him, that didn’t mean he couldn’t entertain other women.
Ronald felt a plan forming and decided to set the honey trap in motion immediately.
Kailee had made her way into the living room, her eyes lighting up when she saw King.
“King!” She strode over, still regretting last night but couldn't help herself from rushing to hug him, carefully watching his reaction.
Unlike before, King didn’t resist, filling Kailee with joy.
“How about we go shopping today? Let’s take Isaac with us. I’ve been getting along so well with him lately. Didn’t you say you’d marry whoever could get him to talk more?”
Kailee buzzed with excitement, eager to fetch Isaac and show King how much their relationship had improved.
King remained silent, letting Kailee get carried away.
“My family is quite curious about you too. If we were to marry, they’d approve.”
The mention of marriage sparked an idea in King’s mind.
