The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2275

Meanwhile, at Rudy's house in the old town, Ken was fawning all over him. "I'm sure you know how we can obtain the power of the spiritron vein. So why don't we do this together? You can claim the spoils once it's done."

Rudy smirked. "You're actually capable of being a trustworthy partner? I never knew… Anyway, stop messing with me already. This is a job for lone wolves, and do you really think I don't know what your owners want?

"I crave power, but I won't stoop to your level. Moreover, you're an expendable asset… and you've just been expended!"

Ken was left frowning in silence, but Rudy was right.

Not only did he burn through the company's resources without achieving his goal, but he had also allowed Frank to obtain valuable information on the Shagan spiritron vein.

At this point, the company had most definitely started moving against him.

"Now that you mention it, I still don't understand…" he suddenly said. "Why was my plan useless against him? Did you rat me out?"

Rudy laughed at his suspicion. "Don't judge me with your petty mind. I'd like to sabotage your plans, but I really didn't have to! Right now, the only person who has truly claimed the power of the spiritron vein for his own is that man… Or have you met another?

"To put it bluntly, the spiritron vein isn't as weak as you'd like to think. Poison doesn't work—it is only subjugated by absolute power."

Ken sighed and smiled in wry amusement. "Talk about being out of luck. You did tell me not to be reckless, but I refused to listen. I really regret it now…"

As soon as he finished, there was a cold flash.

Then, Ken dropped on the floor with a thud, all signs of life lost from his eyes.

Soon, several flashes tore through the air toward Rudy, but he waved his hand, knocking all the projectiles launched at him.

Rising to his feet, he growled, "I wouldn't have lifted a finger even after you killed him… But attacking me?! You're all going to die!"

And with those words, he leaped over the wall, chasing down the fleeing black-clad men and easily dispatching them.
