Chapter 959 You Were Prepared All Along
“So what if I take it too far? If you dare, go ahead and kill me!” Boss retorted.
“How dare you!”
“Luke!” Kenneth cried out all of a sudden.
“Boss!” Luke was furious, for never before had the man suffered such humiliation.
“We cannot kill him,” Kenneth emphasized once again.
Luke felt downright helpless in his rage.
Chuckling, Boss crouched in front of Kenneth. “So, are you going to prostrate yourself to me? If you decide not to do so, I'll send you to meet your maker right now!”
“You said it's something only you possess. Is it your blood?” Kenneth asked.
Boss' expression changed subtly.
The moment his expression changed, Kenneth glimpsed it. “It seems that I'm right.”
Boss' face instantly turned as black as thunder as he looked at the man before him. Even though they were of different races, it was undeniable that Kenneth was handsome, with exquisite and refined features in addition to an inherent air of nobility. Unlike me, he seemed to be a born king. Conversely, I have to fight and grapple for everything I want, bit by bit!
“It seems that I'm right,” Kenneth repeated.
At that moment, those words jolted Boss out of his thoughts.
He looked at the man, frustration seeping through his words. “So what if you're right? Can you possibly change anything?” As he spoke, he stood up, raising his gun and aiming it at Kenneth.
“You're out of chances.” While saying that, he pulled the trigger to fire a shot.
Just then, Kenneth suddenly shot out a long leg and kicked his leg.
A bang split the air.
A gunshot echoed. In that split second, Kenneth leaned to the side a fraction and swiftly kicked Boss' leg out from under him. With a smooth flip, he sprang up just as Boss fell right down. Immediately, he pinned the latter to the ground.
Following a mechanical sound, a gun was suddenly pointed right at Boss' head.
The entire process was such a whirlwind that Boss struggled to keep up.
By the time he gathered his wits about him, he saw Kenneth staring at him intently.
“You set me up, J?” he asked.
“So what?” Kenneth countered.
The boss looked at him. “I never expected you to be quite the actor.”
“When it comes to you, there's really no need for overly sophisticated methods,” Kenneth said, searching him thoroughly.
Naturally, Boss knew he was looking for the antidote. Eyeing the man, he said, “Do you truly think I carry it with me every time I go out?”
“Where is the antidote?” Kenneth demanded.
“At my base.”
“Where is your base?” prompted Kenneth.
“Even if I were to tell you, you wouldn't be able to get it.”
“That's my business, but whether you live or die depends on if you speak!” Kenneth stared at him.
Boss paused slightly, weighing the pros and cons before he answered, “In the second drawer of the desk in my room.”
“Having obtained the answer, Kenneth didn't bother to discern if it was real. At that moment, he
pulled out a syringe from his pocket and tore the outer packaging with his teeth.”
“Uncover his arm, Luke,” he ordered.
Luke was utterly baffled, only then realizing that Kenneth had been putting on an act all along.
With that thought in mind, he immediately stepped forward and rolled up Boss' sleeve.
“Boss!” someone shouted from behind and made to open fire on them. Fortunately, the person behind him noticed that and shot first. The man immediately collapsed to the ground.
Luke jumped in fright, then turned to look at the men brought by Boss behind him. “I'm warning you all not to act rashly. Otherwise, you'll end up just like him!”
Sure enough, none of the few men behind him dared to make a move anymore after witnessing that scene.
After Boss' sleeve had been rolled up, his veins were clearly visible. Without any hesitation, Kenneth inserted the needle right into his vein. Little by little, blood began to fill the vial on the other
end.
Boss' face contorted into a mask of fury, and he itched to make a move. But then, Luke shot him a warning look. “Stay still, and don't make any sudden moves. Otherwise, a misfire could put a hole in your head!” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Boss glared at Kenneth, the look in his eyes vicious. “You were prepared all along?”
“Before I left, someone told me that the missing ingredient in the antidote might be your blood, but it wasn't certain. Thank you for helping me confirm the answer,” said Kenneth.
Boss glowered at him, seething with anger.
Soon, one vial was filled with blood. Kenneth quickly took out another and replaced it. After swiftly filling two vials, Kenneth looked up at Luke.
“Take these and have them delivered to Spencer immediately.”
Upon hearing that, Luke nodded. “Understood!”
And so, Luke took the vials from him before standing up and going to the back to find someone to do it.
Meanwhile, Kenneth stared down at Boss, whose eyes then blazed with more than just disgust and hatred toward him. There was also a rage that wished for nothing more than to eliminate him immediately.
“I must remind you of this once again, Kenneth. You'd better let me go. Otherwise, don't blame me for showing you no mercy!” Boss threatened.
“What else could you possibly do to that?” Kenneth retorted.
Just as Boss was about to reply, Kenneth suddenly continued, “Don't tell me you're still hoping that your main force can come to save you?”
Upon hearing that, Boss frowned.
At that precise moment, Kenneth's phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, but his gaze was fixed on Boss, who was pinned on the ground. “What is it, Dave?”
At that name, Boss' eyebrows knitted together even deeper. But at the same time, he instantly surmised something.
“Yeah, we found it. How's things on your side?” Kenneth asked while on the phone.
A moment later, he added, “Everything's under control?” He arched an eyebrow, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. “Okay, we'll talk when we meet up later.”
After saying that, he immediately hung up the phone.
Right then, Boss gaped at them, shaking his head. “No, that's impossible.”
“What's impossible?” Kenneth asked, eyeing him.
“No! It's absolutely impossible!” Boss screeched in disbelief.
“You're at your breaking point already?” asked Kenneth.
“You guys actually ganged up to trick me, J!” Boss roared resentfully.
The more he raged, the greater the inexplicable pleasure Kenneth derived.
“You're already close to breaking down? What if I told you there's another piece of news you'd find even harder to accept? Would you believe me?” Kenneth asked leisurely.
Boss remained silent, glaring at him with viciously.
“Do you know why I was stalling earlier? It's not just your main force. Even your base is now under our control. If all goes as planned, your base will soon be reduced to ruins!”
Upon hearing that, Boss' eyes widened instantly. He looked at Kenneth, his gaze brimming with disbelief.
To grant him closure, Kenneth made a call to Thalia right in front of him.
In no time, the call was answered.
“The antidote is in the second drawer of his office.”
