NovelEnglishChapter 222
Kai knew that his grandfather would not harm him. When advised to stay away from Simon, he
understood it was for his own good.
He did not share a deep friendship with Simon, who merely served as a pawn against Nash.
After angering Nash, Kai planned to leave the country temporarily.
“When did you get that idea, Kai?” Helena looked at Kai in astonishment. Her face radiated with joy and
happiness.
She was eager to watch the afternoon boxing match, wanting to see Wanda beat Bianca up. However,
the news of Kai taking her on a trip made other events seem insignificant.
It was an excellent opportunity to bond with Kai.
Kai tilted Helena’s chin and gave her a quick kiss, saying, “I made this decision a while ago. In a few
days, there’s an investor meeting for my overseas company. I’ll introduce you to some new friends
then.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDuncan swirled his wine and chuckled. “What a coincidence. I’m leaving the country in a few days too,
planning to pick up my sister who’s about to graduate.”
Duncan was a sharp guy. Hearing that Kai was going abroad, he immediately guessed Kai’s intention
to distance himself from the brewing storm.
Given Nash’s undeniable strength and the six Juggernauts’ attack on Nash’s close associates, they
seemed to be treading dangerous ground.
Exiting this scene was the smart choice.
“Mr. Kai, Mr. Duncan, isn’t this a bit unfair?”
Simon squinted at the two.
The meaning behind his grandfather’s call became clear.
While he bore his own grudges against Nash, Kai and Duncan disliked him just as much.
They were all in the same tricky situation, but Kai and Duncan wanted out, leaving Simon as the
potential scapegoat.
Kai lifted his glass with a smile. “Mr. Lane, thanks for aiding our revenge. Once I return from abroad, I’ll
treat you to a grand meal at the Chateau Hotel.”
Helena and Duncan raised their glasses in response.
Simon remarked while holding his drink, “That call earlier was from my grandfather. He mentioned that
hiring the six Juggernauts cost 900 million!”
The implication was clear. They would need to cough up 300 million each if they wanted a way
out.
Duncan sipped his wine.
Experience had indeed made Howard wiser.
He likely called Duncan to implicate him and Kai together.
Kai, narrowing his eyes, looked toward the distant garden, apparently waiting for Duncan’s
response.
Smirking faintly, Simon said, “The Hidden-Ghost Juggernaut is taking the lead on this. I can offer him
200 million, while the remaining 100 million will be split among the other five Juggernauts as a getaway
fund.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe dialed a number and turned on speaker mode.
“What is it?”
A cold female voice came from the other end.
Kai and Duncan glanced at the phone, and the caller ID was Wanda York.
Simon chuckled. “Let’s cancel the afternoon boxing match. We’ve achieved our goal.”
Wanda responded coldly, “Are you joking?”
Simon hurriedly said, “I’ll give you 15 million!”
After a brief pause, Wanda agreed. “Deal.”
“I’ll cover the 300 million!”
Kai narrowed his eyes and spoke.
His animosity toward Nash was evident. A mere attack against Skadi was not enough to settle his
anger.
“What 300 million?” Wanda asked, confused.
Simon hung up promptly.
The 900 million was a number he came up with.
The six Juggernauts supported them due to a favor the president owed his grandfather.
“Mr. Duncan… your move?”
Simon looked at Duncan with a playful smirk.
