The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power novel Chapter 721

"I can speak on behalf of the Nicholsons and assure you that it's not your fault." Kingsley neither confirmed nor denied, hoping to alleviate some of her guilt.

Shannon was taken aback, her hand instinctively covering her mouth, leaving her speechless for a moment.

Cassius' expression mirrored the astonishment.

Both of them sensed there was a significant connection between Kingsley and the family that tragically perished years ago.

"I'm so sorry." After a moment of silence, Shannon's voice carried sincere remorse. "I apologize for how I treated you."

Her apologies flowed genuinely, directed at Kingsley.

Then, her teary gaze shifted to Cassius. "Cassius, Mr. Nicholson's visit is about asking you to return to the martial world, right? To make amends for our past selfishness, you must wholeheartedly support him and stand by his side."

Cassius' last doubts vanished as he listened to Shannon's words.

He nodded. "Rest assured, from now on, my life belongs to Mr. Nicholson."

As Kingsley observed the couple, his emotions were a whirlwind of complexity.

This encounter not only exposed the mastermind behind the tragic fire but also gained an ally like Cassius. It was far beyond what he had expected.

However, at the same time, the truth behind his parents' deaths became increasingly intricate.

With each revelation, more layers were unveiled, and the web of connections seemed to spread wider, potentially implicating many others.

In light of this, Kingsley's determination strengthened even more.

No matter who lurked behind as the hidden mastermind, Kingsley was resolute in exposing them and exacting revenge for his parents.

Kingsley had anticipated that Shannon would plead on her father's behalf, but he was surprised by her unwavering sense of righteousness.

Without saying much, Kingsley made a heartfelt promise. "If Cassius joins me, I'll ensure a bright future for him. As for you and Cayden, I'll guarantee your safety, and I won't let the Timothys tear you apart."

Shannon wiped her tears and expressed her gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Nicholson. Let me cook a few more dishes for you. Let's not talk about this anymore."

With that, she stood up and headed back to the kitchen.

Kingsley didn't stop her, understanding that she needed some private moments to shed her tears.

To uphold righteousness and sacrifice her father must have brought tremendous pain to her heart.

Listening to the drone of the kitchen's exhaust fan, mingled with faint sobs, Cassius couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh.
