"You are blushing. Your grandfather wants us to spend the night together?" Henry guessed based on what John said over the phone."Something like that." Lydia felt a little awkward.Henry shook his head and said, "No, I will not agree. Are you only worth 15,000 dollars?""What are you talking about?" Lydia was embarrassed and annoyed."I won't let you do anything even if you agree. But I'll pay you if you refuse," she said fiercely."Alright." Henry agreed."Deal?""Yes, but 15,000 dollars is not enough. I want 150,000 dollars."Lydia cursed silently, thinking Henry was shameless, but she still agreed."Deal."She handed Henry a check for 150,000 dollars.They entered the mansion and found Lydia's parents in the living room.Without waiting for Henry to approach, Jennifer said, "Stop thinking about your fantasies, Henry Truman."The Millers are far out of reach for a bumpkin like you."You don't deserve my daughter."Lydia agreed with her mother, but her brows were furrow
However, Henry said, "Grandpa Miller, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't want to work in the company for the time being.""What do you want to do then? Laze around at home?" Jennifer mocked him."No, it's not that. Money is not a problem for me now," Henry said calmly.'How can money not be a problem for you? You won't need to stay in our house if you have money. And where would a bumpkin like you get the money?'However, William stopped his wife from forcing Henry to work at the company just to humiliate him.It could ruin their daughter's reputation.Jennifer finally realized that and stopped talking.Lydia immediately felt disdainful as she thought of that 150,000 dollars.He must have believed he could live carefree with that money.John turned around and asked, "Lydia, any progress on joining the Everising Chamber of Commerce?""We've made it to the last ten, but only three slots are available. Fortunately, Lewis is willing to help.""Oh, the Brandons are quite pow
"Alright, I have things to do." Henry pushed William out of the room and closed the door.William was dumbfounded.He told his wife about it, and they were furious.Henry noticed the couple talking to another young man when he walked into the living room at noon."Don't worry, Father, Mother. He's just a bumpkin, let me deal with him. I'm sure I will scare the shit out of him," Mike Miller, the couple's son, said."Yeah, go for it.""Don't worry. I am a big shot in Hodbridge. Dealing with him is a piece of cake."I'll teach him a lesson with a few slaps, or I can make his life difficult.""He's coming," Jennifer said.Mike turned around and stood up to meet Henry."Are you that man who kept pestering my sister?" Mike asked."Yes, that's me, your brother-in-law!" Henry replied with a smile."What did you say?""Your brother-in-law!""You?Mike sneered. "Get the hell out of here now, or I'll break your legs.""You?" Henry mocked."You must have a death wish. Do you know
John's face darkened; he knew his grandson well enough.He turned to Mike, hoping that it was all a misunderstanding.However, Mike trembled and stammered his reply."I— I did not know…did not know the woman belonged to Lord Perlo's brother…""Dumbass!" John raged and slapped him.William and his wife turned pale.They were unfamiliar with Zack Perlo but had heard of his infamous reputation, so they were terrified.In any case, John could not abandon his grandson.He stepped forward and said calmly, "Lord Perlo, this is my grandson's mistake. It must be a misunderstanding. Please spare him this time. Rest assured, we will compensate for this.""Fine, I can do that for your sake, Mr. Miller. Pay us 15 million dollars, and we'll let this slide."They wanted 15 million dollars!The Millers' total assets were only around 150 million dollars. Compensating such a sum would undoubtedly cause financial difficulties for the family."Are you not willing to pay the money?" Lord Perlo
Zack was initially enraged at the person who had been so arrogant. However, when he saw Henry, his expression changed abruptly.Had their chairman not told them not to mess with that terrifying person?He had no idea who Henry was, but the chairman had gathered the Capos from four branches the previous night to identify his face and ensure that everyone respected him more than the chairman himself.No one could save them if they offended Henry."What's going on, Grandpa Miller?" Two people appeared at the door, and Lewis was one of them.Lewis was the Brandons' sole heir. He had quite a powerful influence in Hodbridge.He might be able to resolve the situation."Lewis, you're here. Please come in." John welcomed him.Meanwhile, Zack had finally snapped back to his senses. He remembered that the chairman had instructed them not to reveal the person's identity.He respectfully bowed toward Henry and said, "Mr. Miller, let's forget about this since there's such an influential fig
"You're the one who is bullshitting!" Lydia could not hold back her anger anymore."I've told you not to brag. Why did you still do it? Furthermore, Lewis has always been courteous and has helped us a lot. Pointing fingers at him is just too much!""That's right. It doesn't matter if you can't help, but at least don't tarnish Lewis' name. If you do it again, you can get out of the family," William said."It's okay, I understand. He's just a bumpkin who knows nothing. It's normal for him to be jealous of me." Lewis laughed."Know your limits and keep your mouth shut. You think we are afraid of you?" Jennifer said.Henry frowned and stopped talking; he would be criticized anyway."Forget it. Henry just said something he shouldn't have." John had obviously lost his trust in him."Lewis, thank you.""Don't worry about it, Grandpa Miller. These are nothing for the sake of Lydia," Lewis said.John frowned. After all, his granddaughter was already a married woman."Grandpa Miller, I
"Lewis is truly generous. He is indeed a respectable member of a wealthy family, far beyond the reach of some uncivilized bumpkin.""That's right! Someone should learn a thing or two from him. They should stop being so petty, spreading false and malicious rumors."Lewis' assistance to the Millers influenced John, who thought highly of him."Lewis does indeed have a grand demeanor. Since Lewis has spoken, you should take Henry to the banquet, Lydia," John said.Even though Lydia was not very willing to do so, she nodded.Early the next morning, Henry received a photo sent by Jeffery and was immediately stunned.That was the girl he had asked Jeffery to search for."Mr. Truman, have you seen the photo?" Jefferey called him right after that."Yes, I've seen it. Have you found her?" Henry was surprised.He had no idea Jefferey would find the person so quickly based on such limited information."It's great to hear she's the one. She's right by your side, too.""Who?""Ms. Lydia
Lydia and Henry drove to the Garden Restaurant to meet Sarah.When Sarah saw Henry, she immediately asked, "Henry, I heard from Lydia that you stayed at Paradise One Villa last night?"Henry was stunned. Then, he nodded and said, "Yes.""Do you know Mr. Ford?" Sarah asked.Lydia was dumbfounded.How could Henry possibly know Jeffery Ford?'Does she really believe that Henry stayed at Paradise One Villa?'Henry said, "Yes, I know him.""Really?" Sarah was in disbelief."Yes, he works for me," Henry said.Sarah and Lydia were left speechless.They had met braggarts before, but that was a whole new level.Lydia was about to punch Henry."It's my fault. For a second, I really believed you stayed in Paradise One Villa. How stupid of me," Sarah said.She must have been mistaken. She thought she saw Henry in Jeffery's car at Paradise One Villa.Henry shrugged and felt helpless. No one believed him when he told them the truth.Meanwhile, a young man appeared. He smiled and said
At that point, everything there was over.After everyone dispersed, Shane laughed as he stepped forward. "Henry, you gave me a big surprise this time."I thought you'd need at least five years to catch up to them. I didn't expect you to have achieved such strength. This is entirely beyond my imagination."May I ask what level of strength you are at now?"Shane was curious.Henry shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know it. There's no one to compare with."I only know that if I use my full strength, I can destroy a city with one single wave of my sword."Everyone was utterly stunned, and they murmured helplessly, "Pervert!"Shane was speechless. He shook his head. "Young man, you really amazed me. By the way, when are you getting engaged? Don't delay for too long; I don't have much time left."He was delighted with Henry and was hoping to be able to attend their wedding.Henry smiled and said, "Elder Master Drayson, have you forgotten what I said yesterday? I'll help you re
Henry's domineering words made the people of Aurelia excited.They were so enthusiastic that they had to express their excitement.However, they were confused when Henry ordered them to launch the missiles.What did Henry mean? Why did Henry order the launching of the missiles? Everyone was curious.Everyone else was dumbfounded, too. What order was that?Everyone had doubts in their mind.At the same time, the person at the missile base was sweating profusely. He had to execute the order under any circumstances, and he was so nervous that he could not help but reconfirm the order again.Frederick nodded. He had looked into the matter personally to ensure everything was in place without error.If he had not seen Henry's extraordinary strength with his own eyes, he would not have believed that Henry had planned everything. He had even met with Frederick earlier in the morning and made the request.Henry wanted to show how powerful he was in deterring anyone from creating unnece
There were words of praise, excitement, and admiration in Aurelia.In their opinion, Henry was Aurelia's protector.In other places, people were amazed and fearful of Henry's strength.Henry did not care about that. He remembered that there were many troublemakers earlier.In a deep voice, he said, "I heard that over these past few days, many looked down on Aurelia's battling skills because no one was here to deal with them."In that case, I'll let them see how powerful Aurelia's battling skills are. There's no need to trouble those masters who are in seclusion. Those present today can do the same job."Step forward, Jensen."Jensen was stunned. When he heard Henry's order, he quickly gathered his thoughts. He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Truman."Jensen was a powerful master trained by Henry. His terrifying aura was clearly displayed at that moment.In an instant, the whole world could feel his strong force. The powerful force gathered in the air made ever
Henry waved his right hand. Jorge flew out of the platform and landed near the few Islehaveners beside their ambassador.Henry had sent Jorge back to them.Next, it would be Lucifer's turn.The audience looked at Henry with admiration and were shocked.Shane and the others who supported Henry were really excited. Earlier, they had thought Aurelia would face a big crisis. They did not expect Henry to solve the matter so easily.Although Lucifer had yet to make a move, it was impossible for Lucifer to defeat Henry so easily."Lucifer, you're up," Henry said.Everyone's heart trembled.The crowd was familiar with Lucifer. He became famous after the battle the day before.It was obvious that Lucifer was much stronger than Jorge. Most importantly, he represented the powerful Westin.Lucifer snorted coldly. He stepped forward and spread his fourteen wings. He looked overpowering and extremely terrifying.The huge pressure created by the wings made everyone feel breathless.Howeve
Jorge's expression looked horrible. He had already taken the first step. Everything would go in vain if he were to give up.So, he got up, knelt in front of Henry again, and shouted, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"Slap, slap!Another few heavy slaps on him.Jorge was utterly stunned; he was also shocked and angry."Your voice is too loud. It's disturbing," Henry said.At that moment, any fool would know Henry did it intentionally. He deliberately played tricks on Jorge.That made the Islehaveners feel even more ashamed.An ambassador of Islehaven who was watching the battle stepped forward and said, "Stop! Stop! You're destroying—""Get lost," Henry snorted coldly and waved his right hand.Even though the ambassador was a few hundred meters away, he immediately felt a massive pain in his chest. He flew backward about ten meters away and fainted as he landed on the ground.He was then dragged away.Everyone was shocked.Jorge's expression looked extremely ugly. The pain on his c
Henry's voice contained powerful mental pressure. He controlled it so well that it only targeted Jorge."No!" Jorge gritted his teeth and roared. The power around him gathered crazily, forming a huge and terrifying force he was trying to resist.Everyone was shocked when they saw that.A huge tornado formed above Jorge's head, and a powerful force burst out crazily. Once again, he displayed his amazing and terrifying strength.The overwhelming pressure shocked everyone.Everyone in the country saw that. They were extremely excited. "I knew it. Jorge was only fooling with him. He's showing his real strength now.""That's right. He's finally fighting back. He must teach that guy a cruel lesson."They were all excited. However, their excitement disappeared the next moment, and their expression looked horrible.At that moment, Henry, with a disdainful look, raised his right hand and pressed on the tornado lightly.The terrifying force on Jorge dissipated completely in an instant.
"He's my idol, too!""Mine, too.""Stop pretending. Weren't you arrogant and proud earlier? Keep it going."At that moment, the people of Aurelia cheered, both online and those who were there. Everyone who knew Henry and was close to him was also extremely excited.In contrast, the faces of the people of Islehaven looked ugly; they could not believe what they had seen.They saw Jorge as powerful as God. How could he be crushed? He was even slapped in public, equivalent to a slap on everyone's face. They were furious."Cheater! He must be cheating!""That is a conspiracy. It must be a conspiracy!""Jorge, did you hold back? You wanted them to be happy first and then would beat them out of their asses later?""Get up! Show them how powerful the people of Islehaven are."Similarly, the reaction of the people from the Westin countries was not good either. Everyone was shocked.Some were amazed at Henry's power.Of course, many other countries expressed their support for Aurelia
Jorge frowned when Henry walked up to the platform. He realized he did not manage to sense Henry's strength and power at all.There were only two possibilities. The first was that Henry was so much stronger than himself that Jorge could not sense his strength. Jorge had already managed to sense Shane and Lucifer's strength.Henry could not be much stronger than the two of them.The other possibility was that Henry had learned a secret technique to conceal his strength.If Jorge did not guess wrongly, it should be the latter.'Trying to scare me with that hideous trick?'Jorge sneered and said disdainfully, "Henry, you coward. Are you finally willing to come forward now? I thought you were going to stay hidden forever."Henry smiled, but his smile was a little cold. He said, "Hide? Since when do I need to hide? About half a month ago, you and your master, Lucifer, had to flee from Aurelia. Have you forgotten about that?""Nonsense!"Jorge was furious when he heard that. First,
"I do hope there are stronger masters today; at least let me warm up a little. Otherwise, it'll be really boring for me."Also, I won't be holding back today. Life and death are not considerations once we're on the platform. I'd like to see if anyone in Aurelia isn't afraid of death."As soon as he said that, many people commented again. Many people were thinking about Henry, whom Jorge had mentioned, but Henry had yet to appear.Many Aurelian masters were furious when they heard Jorge's words and were about to rush to the platform.Flynn stepped forward and was about to go up onto the platform.However, Henry took the lead and went to the platform.Manish, standing next to him, was stunned for a moment. He was the strongest master among the several Worship Masters. Manish was stronger than Albus, but he did not stop Henry.Albus specifically instructed him to arrange for Flynn to join the fight first. Even though he would not be able to defeat Jorge, at least he could exhaust t
