Chapter 428
The corner of Kingsley's mouth twitched. "That's because I've been calling you by that name since
childhood. Besides, Miss Albright is a few months older than me. So, it doesn't feel appropriate to call
her by a pet name…"
Elaine understood Courtney well, so she knew that Courtney was just teasing Kingsley. Thus, she
covered her mouth and laughed coquettishly before finally saying to him, "Okay, that's enough. I'll just
take the loss. You can call me 'Elaine', Kingsley."
"What! Elaine, are you thinking about becoming my sister-in-law?"
"That's so annoying! Court, what nonsense are you spewing? I won't be your friend anymore!"
"Hahaha…"
The three of them joked around for a while. Afterward, Courtney invited Kingsley to dinner so that they
could spend more time together. "Kingsley, do you want to join us for dinner tonight?"
"No." Kingsley shook his head. "I want to go back and start reading Professor Albright's book."
She raised an eyebrow at him. "Why are you suddenly showing interest in Professor Albright's research
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇton information and intelligence?"
"I… I'm just curious." He grinned and lied, "It's just curiosity!"
"Is that so?" She stared at him intently with her almond-shaped eyes. "Don't tell me… Do you have a
different purpose for coming to Solaris University and looking for Professor Albright?"
He couldn't help shivering in fear when he caught sight of her eyes that seemed to pierce deep into his
very soul, exposing his secrets to the light!
"Uh… You should go ahead with your plans. I'm heading back to the hotel to read!" He held up the
book and bid them goodbye. Then, he turned and fled as though he were escaping a dangerous
situation.
He knew that he could not continue talking with Courtney any longer! Otherwise, his identity and
purpose would all be exposed! If she learned the truth, then so would Reene and Victoria! Following
that, except for Jessica, whose whereabouts were unknown, even Alice, Serena, and Yulia would know
all about his secrets!
If that were to happen… When he led his soldiers to the Empire of the Setting Sun to capture the spies
and track down the true culprit behind his parents' deaths… He would have six beautiful sisters beside
him! They would nag him about his safety and urge him to come home… He did not dare to even
imagine such a scenario!
Besides, it would be too dangerous for his sisters to be involved in these matters! If he were to
encounter any danger, they would fearlessly throw themselves in front of trouble just to protect him!
Even if they lost their lives in the process!
The previous incident where Reene took a bullet for him had been a rude wake-up call! He could never
allow similar things to happen again! Therefore, no matter what, he could never expose his identity to
his sisters!
While he mulled over these thoughts, he unknowingly arrived at the gates of Solaris University. His
stamina was excellent, so his complexion remained almost unchanged even though he had been
running for so long. In fact, he was only slightly out of breath.
He did not waste any time as he immediately returned to the hotel on the commercial street and began
reading the book that Vincent had written. In the beginning, the contents of the book were very
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmundane. It was similar to the dissertations written by other professors. However, his eyebrows
furrowed deeper and deeper as he continued reading!
Vincent had mentioned something in his book. It was an incident that occurred seventeen years ago
when the internet was just becoming popular in the Empire of Qustia. He once used his hacking skills
to obtain information on an intelligence organization known as 'The Nightingale Intelligence Agency'.
The NIA Agency was centered around an intelligence broker, and their influence radiated across the
entire Great Xia Empire!
Vincent was only in his early thirties at the time, so he was young but short of money. Hence, he sold
the information on the intelligence broker to the black market. However, he never imagined the
consequences of his actions! It didn't take long before the entire family of the intelligence broker was
brutally murdered! The husband and wife, as well as their son, who had only just turned five years old,
were tragically killed in a sea of fire!
Thanks to this incident, Vincent suffered heavy emotional damage. He had been on the verge of a
mental and emotional breakdown! He believed that he caused the tragic deaths of that family of three!
If he had not sold the information for money, then the originally happy family would never have been
reduced to ashes!
