Chapter 518 Kind, but Not Weak
No ordinary woman could ever exude such innate nobility and elegance inadvertently.
Even someone as noble as Jay Carter would appear inferior in front of Reene.
Seeing the unusual look in Kingsley's eyes, Reene blushed and coquettishly asked, "What's wrong? Kingsley, do you think I'm overestimating myself?"
"No." Kingsley shook his head. "I'm just wondering, who are your birth parents that you have such a noble bloodline in you?"
Upon the mention of birth parents, Reene's mood darkened slightly. "I-I wonder the same."
Kingsley suddenly came to his senses and realized he might come off as rude, so he apologetically said, "Reene, trust me. I will find your birth parents."
Reene smiled. "I trust you! Okay, weren't we talking about the Wynn Family? Why did we suddenly bring up my birth parents?"
"Right, let's talk about the Wynn Family." Kingsley narrowed his eyes. "What is the maximum bottom line you can accept if I deal with the Wynn Family tomorrow?"
Reene was taken aback. "Are you really going to deal with the Wynn Family at Mia's engagement party?"
"They have been hiding around for long enough. It's time to give them a taste of their own medicine!" Kingsley said in a deep voice, "However, I respect your wish."
Reene pondered with her head lowered for a while. "Just don't kill them."
Upon hearing this, Kingsley was somewhat surprised. "Is that all? I thought you would let them off the hook!"
Reene flashed a beautiful smile. "That's different. Me repaying them money, and you teaching them a lesson—these are two different things." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Kingsley gave her a thumbs up. "Reene, you have the pridefulness of a capitalist!"
"It's not about pridefulness; it's about principle," Reene said. "One can be kind, but one cannot be weak."
Kingsley nodded. "Alright. With your words, I am reassured."
Then, he stood up. "Reene, please continue with your work. I'll see myself out."
As he walked to the door, Kingsley turned around again. "By the way, you don't have to wait for me to attend Mia's engagement party tomorrow. I have to go out early to do something."
Reene didn't know what Kingsley was up to, so she just nodded and said, "Okay."
Kingsley left the study and went straight back to his room.
He called James, the manager of Ramada Hotel, and gave him detailed instructions for tomorrow's plan.
After thinking for a moment, he called Cecilia.
The Larson Family was also one of the second-class families and should be invited by Clarence.
So, Kingsley planned to ask Cecilia to do him a favor.
When she answered the phone, she sounded a little nervous. "K-Kingsley?"
"It's me." Kingsley smiled and said, "It's been a while, Cecilia."
Cecilia's tone suddenly became a little sad. "It has. I thought you had forgotten about me..."
Kingsley could understand the hidden meaning in her words, and his forehead began to sweat.
Should I not get involved with Cecilia again?
Unfortunately, she was the most suitable person for tomorrow's plan.
After a moment's hesitation, Kingsley shook his head and said, "Forget it. Cecilia, how have you been lately? Has Shane come to bother you again?"
Cecilia laughed and said, "Of course not! He was scared off by me a long time ago. He wouldn't dare to come to bother me again!"
"Okay then," Kingsley said.
"I haven't seen you for a long time and just wanted to give you a call. That's all. See you tomorrow at Mia's engagement party. Goodbye..."
He was about to hang up the phone.
"Wait!" Cecilia hurriedly said, "I know you are up to something! Whatever it is, I'll help you! Just tell me.
