Kingsley shook his head. “Boris Oakley was Andrew Kean’s tutor back when the latter was studying in
Sweoya. The academic forum they’re organizing this time is a crucial turning point in Andrew’s career,
and Boris is one of the key figures playing a crucial part in it. I think Andrew’s frantic search for Boris is
only for the sake of his own career prospects; it probably has nothing to do with Sweoya’s espionage
activities,” he said. Then, he asked Lancer, “How is Boris?”
“He’s now being held in the modified cell at Building No. 16,” Lancer replied with a grin. “That old man
is just a pedantic scholar, and he’s threatening to punish us in his papers every single day.”
“Don’t kill him, but don’t let him live too comfortably either,” Kingsley instructed impassively. “Even if he
isn’t very useful in catching the spies, he can be used as a means to keep the Kean Corporation in
check in the future.” At the thought of this, he curled his lips into a chilling smile. Didn’t Elijah want to
set Reene up with Andrew? Well, it’s enough if Andrew knows what to do. If he blindly insists on asking
for trouble, I don’t mind cutting short his career right away!
While Kingsley was mapping out the follow-up plans to exterminate the spies, Matt was on pins and

over. Although he kept telling himself that Kingsley was just a little gangster and was nothing to be
afraid of, he had never been able to get the words “You’re gonna get your due when the time comes”
said by Kingsley out of his mind. Finally, he said, “Nicholas, stay here with your grandma. I have
something to deal with.”
“What’s wrong, Dad?” Nicholas asked in puzzlement. “Did something wrong happen to the company?”
Matt shook his head. “Just stay out of this. All you have to do is keep your grandma company and not
give Michael and his family any opportunity to act.”
“Got it, Dad.” Nicholas nodded, knowing that his top priority right now was to win his grandmother’s
favor. Now that his grandmother’s health was worsening by the day, he had to make her will all the Fox
Family’s fortune to his family. I mustn’t let Michael and Megan get in the way and get a share of the Fox
Family’s wealth!
After leaving the ward, Matt headed straight for the parking lot. Sitting in the driver’s seat, he pondered
for a moment before taking out his phone to call Felix.
At this moment, Felix had just returned to his office after a meeting. When he saw the caller ID, he was
somewhat puzzled. Why would Matt call me? Even though they were both in Cleapolis, their
businesses didn’t overlap, so they hadn’t gotten in touch for a long time.
“Hi, Matt. What brings a busy man like you to call me?” Matt’s Prime Corporation wasn’t as large as the
Jacob Corporation, but Matt’s standing in Cleapolis’ business circles wasn’t much lower than Felix’s
when the whole Roseland Chamber of Commerce’s clout was taken into account. Therefore, Felix
sounded very friendly when he answered the phone.
“Mr. Jacob, I have something important to discuss with you,” Matt said while lowering his voice. “I
wonder if it’s convenient for us to meet up right now.”
Felix’s expression turned serious at the grave tone in Matt’s voice. “Sure. I’m at Jacob Corporation right
now. Just come straight to my office.”
After hanging up the phone, Felix couldn’t help but knit his brows. Matt had no business dealings with
him, and they had rarely come into contact in recent years, save for a few occasions they had met each
other at business parties in Cleapolis. The only connection between them was probably what had

vicious. Could the Nicholson brat have attacked the Fox Family as well?!
Soon after that, Matt came to the chairman’s office at Jacob Corporation. As soon as he sat down, he
asked right away, “Mr. Jacob, has someone from the Nicholson Family come back?”
Felix’s eyelid twitched when he heard that. So, my guess is correct after all! “What’s wrong? Did the
guy named Kingsley Nicholson go to you?”
“That’s right! We ran into each other somehow; it was like we were bound to meet!” A hint of
viciousness flashed across Matt’s eyes. “He’s now on the same side with my sister and brother-in-law. I
bet he’s after the Fox Family’s fortune!”
Seeing how Matt gnashed his teeth in resentment, Felix made a cup of tea and handed it to him.
“Come on, have a cup of tea. Tell me what happened.”
“As you know, Mr. Jacob, my mother is already over 80 years old, and she’s been hospitalized lately
after a heart attack. I hired a dozen specialists from Mittera, but they couldn’t do anything about her
condition. It seems like her death is approaching. And yet…”
