I Am the Ruler of All (Kingsley) novel Chapter 557

"The Foxes wanted to use the Wynns to threaten me, so I simply played along with their scheme." Kingsley smiled lightly before adding, "I can only say it's killing two birds with one stone. I wouldn't call it a bloodless kill."

By bringing out 150 million, he not only resolved the Wynns' entanglement but also shattered the Fox Family's conspiracy.

Indeed, it was killing two birds with one stone!

Hearing the speculations and discussions from the crowd, Mia suddenly raised her head and glared at him, shouting, "It's you! You've destroyed my happiness! First, you took Ethan away from me, and now you've made Nicholas cancel the engagement! It's always you! It's all because of you!!!"

Kingsley shrugged in denial while extending his hands. "Nicholas left when he saw no benefits. You can't blame me for that, can you?"

"Yes, I can and I will! It's all your fault!" She then turned her fierce gaze toward Reene.

"And you! You've brought this disaster upon us! You must have been behind it all! It has to be you! I'll make you all pay!"

As she spoke, she struggled to rise from the ground and started looking around in a dazed manner, as if searching for something.

In the next moment, her eyes lit up, and Mia briskly approached the nearby dining table. There, she saw a gleaming silver dining knife resting on the table!

Crack!

Rushing over, she seized the dining knife and swiftly charged toward Kingsley fiercely!

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and no one reacted in time!

The first to spring into action was the five Coliree Warriors in black suits. They were about to rush forward to protect Kingsley when someone already swiftly rushed out from the crowd in the next second. Mia's wrist was firmly seized, and with a sudden force exerted, her delicate wrist snapped.

Clang!

The dining knife in her hand also fell to the ground.

"Ah! My hand!!!" Clutching her wrist, she curled up on the ground and cried out in agony.

However, before he could utter "Ares," Kingsley interrupted him, "I remember you. You're Thomas Baxton, a lieutenant captain under General Ignatov, right?"

"Yes, sir!" Thomas understood that Kingsley did not want his identity revealed, so he refrained from further speaking. However, his eyes were filled with fanaticism as he nodded fervently.

He never expected that the esteemed Ares would remember the name of a mere lieutenant captain like himself.

Just a moment ago, when Kingsley made his appearance, Thomas had already recognized him! However, being aware of his own inferior status, he did not dare approach Kingsley or initiate a conversation. Nevertheless, he strategically positioned himself as close to Kingsley as possible within the crowd as he longed to be in his proximity.

Therefore, he was the first to react when Mia picked up the knife to attack Kingsley.

Being nearby, he was even faster than the five Coliree Warriors in taking action!

Witnessing Thomas salute Kingsley, the onlookers were left utterly dumbfounded.
