Chapter 1998: Chapter 1998: This Time, It’s a Complete Break with the Kingsleys Family

"..."

Hansel Kingsley never thought Nathalie Quinlan would be so unapologetic. He was fuming, his old face turning the color of pig liver, almost fainting from the rage.

Initially, he was constrained by his identity, too proud to ask the girl for forgiveness.

He simply accepted that James Lawrence would represent him in pleading, thinking that as an elder, Nathalie would hesitate to completely offend the Kingsleys Family.

But seeing her like this, does she seem like someone who fears offending the Kingsleys Family?

She’s probably thinking of completely tearing off the facade with the Kingsleys Family!

Once Hansel Kingsley understood this, his face turned stern and he sharply waved his hand, leaving a statement: "Don’t worry, I’ll give you the secret formula! I’ll have it sent to The First Research Institute!"

James Lawrence’s face changed dramatically.

This was the Kingsleys’ black gunpowder secret formula. How could the Sixth Elder just say he’d give it away...

He opened his mouth, but it was too late to salvage the situation.

Hansel Kingsley’s cold voice rang out: "James Lawrence, let’s go!"

Hansel Kingsley turned and left, anyone could see the thunderous anger mixed in his retreat!

James Lawrence was caught in a dilemma, glancing here and there, finally opting to tell Nathalie Quinlan a word, and hurriedly followed along.

Once they were far off.

Kenzie Nabours took a deep breath, his expression serious as he said to the girl: "Nathalie Quinlan, you’ve truly offended him this time."

"Hansel Kingsley is known for his violent temper and carrying grudges. Offending him means the future won’t be easy in Inderia."

His concern was the reason for his words; otherwise, he needn’t have said anything.

Nathalie Quinlan, however, casually turned around, nonchalantly replying: "It doesn’t matter, even if I don’t offend him, he won’t keep his distance from me. So, let’s tear off the facade and save future pleasantries when we meet again."

Hansel Kingsley came to the underground auction today, asked James to serve tea, and competed with her for the Flesh Ganoderma... instance after instance, none suggested a good rapport.

Since Hansel Kingsley wanted to teach her a lesson, then fine, she also intended to make an example out of him for the impulsive in the Kingsleys Family.

To stop them from frequently coming to her, and threatening her with the safety of those around her.

She wasn’t interested in the Kingsleys’ black gunpowder secret formula, but if they kept swinging it in her face repeatedly, then don’t blame her for turning hostile.

This incident also marks her official rupture with the Kingsleys Family!

*

The Kingsleys Family’s people have all left.

The Flesh Ganoderma naturally fell into Nathalie Quinlan’s hand.

The next step was Kenzie Nabours handling the loose ends; Nathalie Quinlan didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble, so she didn’t linger at the underground auction and left with Amadeus Yancey and the others.

Before leaving, she pulled out a black card to pay for the Flesh Ganoderma auction, only to find Amadeus Yancey had already paid for it.

Nathalie Quinlan put the card back into her bag without saying anything.

As for the pink diamond she won in the stone gambling against Hansel Kingsley, since she won it, the raw stone of the pink diamond belonged to her according to the rules.

Nathalie Quinlan threw the black card into her backpack along with it, zipped it up, called Sadam Vinson, and told Kenzie Nabours a word before leaving first.

Kenzie Nabours, with many loose ends to tie up, didn’t retain them.

Soon, Nathalie Quinlan followed Amadeus Yancey and Sadam Vinson out of the underground auction, heading towards the parking lot of Intercontinental Hotel.

The three arrived in front of a black Range Rover.

Sadam Vinson perceptively ran to the back seat to sit.

Amadeus Yancey opened the car door, saying to her: "Back first?"
