The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power

Chapter 638 Searching For Manpower

Rupert felt himself growing angry as he punched the couch. Although he hadn't lost his rationality, he could feel his nerves were on the verge of snapping.

"Damn it! These bosses are absolute b*stards!" He cursed under his breath as he dialed the numbers of some lower-ranking subordinates while continuing to mutter to himself, "I can't f*cking believe it. Even these small fries won't answer my calls!"

Beep. Beep. Beep... "Hello?" Finally, the call went through!

Rupert asked hoarsely, "Terry, what have you been busy with lately?"

"M-Mr. Shapiro?" The person on the other end of the line sounded puzzled. "Mr. Shapiro, why did you suddenly call me?"

"Damn it! Your boss hasn't been answering my calls!" Rupert exclaimed in a fit of fury.

Terry's tone became peculiar as he replied, "Mr. Shapiro, don't you know? Our boss has been captured and it seems he's been sentenced to death."

Rupert was stunned for a moment before uttering in disbelief, "What happened? How did he get captured out of nowhere?"

"During the recent bosses' meeting, someone leaked some information to the police," Terry explained. "Except for a few individuals, everyone else present was arrested! Thankfully, Boss Jarett stepped in to stabilize the situation and prevented widespread turmoil in the underworld. However, our gang has now fallen under the control of Mr. Howe and is affiliated with the Black Boxer Gang! If you need assistance, Mr. Shapiro, I can only help you reach out to Mr. Howe!"

"W-What?" Rupert's facial muscles twitched. "You're now a member of the Black Boxer Gang?"

He vividly remembered that Baron was on Kingsley's side during the underworld meeting! This was something that Baron absolutely couldn't find out!

Rupert was deep in thought as he lit a cigarette, furrowing his brow as he contemplated the significant shifts occurring in the underworld. If he haphazardly sought assistance, he would risk colliding with the forces of Kingsley and Baron!

After careful consideration, a sudden realization dawned upon him.

He thought of someone who could provide him with manpower and would never aid Kingsley— Cain!

Cain, who happened to be Jarett's nephew, undoubtedly had a substantial number of subordinates under him. Furthermore, rumors had it that he had suffered injuries inflicted by Kingsley during their encounter at the golf estate. So, if Rupert could locate Cain, there was no doubt that the man would join forces with him to confront Kingsley!

Now that Rupert had this plan in mind, he promptly reached for his phone and acquired Cain's number through a few subordinate acquaintances.

Meanwhile, Cain was languidly basking in the warm sunlight in his yard. He was badly beaten by Wendell at the entrance of the golf estate and sent to the hospital where he promptly received medical treatment. It was fortunate that the injuries were not too severe, so he managed to avoid the need for chest surgery. Nevertheless, he had to stay in the hospital for several days for observation and was only discharged the day before.

Cough cough–

Cain coughed while holding his aching chest and cursing, "Damn it! The aftermath I have to suffer because of that punk. I'll settle the score with him sooner or later!"

In the midst of it all, Rupert came a-calling.

As Rupert explained the situation, Cain didn't hesitate for a second before immediately responding, "No problem, I have around twenty subordinates who can assist. It's more than sufficient to handle a mere girl!"

"Excellent! Let's discuss this matter further when we meet up tomorrow!"

…

Rupert and his comrades had already initiated a scheme, while Kingsley and Reene remained completely oblivious to the unfolding events!

Reene sat in her studies with furrowed brows furrowed as she stared at the computer screen.

Kingsley entered with a plate of freshly washed fruits in his hands. "Reene, have something to eat. You've been working all day. This doesn't feel like a day off at all. You seem more tired than when you're at the office!"

"The project with Coliree Group has officially launched," Reene said wearily, massaging her temples. "Mr. Parker mentioned that state-owned brands are riding the wave and going all in, so I have to make the most of my time!"This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
