Barry thought of another phone number, someone from the Newman family, too. He was unfamiliar with the person, though, but he dialed the number immediately.After all, he had to rely on the Newmans to save his life. He had to try even if he might offend them.Someone answered the call. However, when the person heard that Barry was looking for Mateo, he sneered and told him that Mateo had been destroyed and had disappeared.Barry finally confirmed everything.He finally understood what a terrifying and powerful person he had offended.He thought of what Caleb had said earlier. He still did not know he was in big trouble.It turned out the joke was on him.Since the Hoods had been handed to Caleb, Henry did not need to care about those petty matters. He stayed home until the end of the workday before heading to the Sky Avenue Group.No one in the company would stop him from entering the office.Henry went to the general manager's office. He was just about to knock on the door wh
"Isn't it good to do it in the office? It's a different experience."Henry smiled and turned around. He then pressed Lydia onto the desk. His hand went down her body, and he penetrated her.Ah!Lydia groaned. Her body trembled involuntarily. She felt completely out of control, deeply immersed in the process.They did not know that Becky was blushing as she stood outside the door. Her face was red, and her heart pounded.'How bold is Ms. Miller? Why would she do that kind of thing in the office?'Mr. Truman is amazing, too. They've been going at it for so long, and it's not over yet. If I can do it with him, I'll faint from excitement.'No, no, how can I think that?'Becky did not mean to eavesdrop. She was there to get Lydia's signature.However, Henry was handsome and domineering. Her heart would race, and she would feel inexplicably nervous whenever she saw him.After a moment, Lydia quickly gathered herself, blushing. She felt much easier, and the feeling of irritation ear
"Another way? What do you mean?""For example..." Henry pointed at Lydia.Lydia finally understood. She blushed with shame, then said angrily, "You're terrible.""There's nothing I can do about it." Henry was helpless."We can't do it here.""What?"Henry was only joking with her and was teasing her.After all, he could see that Lydia was under tremendous pressure. He even felt that Lydia should not have gone to Sky Avenue Group.Lydia looked challenged. However, for the sake of Henry's health, she gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go to the washroom. No one should be there now."An hour later, Lydia glared at Henry fiercely.She did not know what was wrong with her. She thought she had completely lost her mind; she must have thrown all her common sense out the window. She just did everything Henry wanted.Did she feel guilty for not being able to satisfy him?Henry did not expect that as well. Lydia had excellent academic qualifications and knowledge. However, she had no
Lydia walked forward, pretending as if nothing had happened. However, she did not know Henry could hear her entire conversation."Done?" Henry asked with a smile."Yes.""There's something I wanted to ask you. Lydia, are you happy working at the Sky Avenue Group?" Henry asked.Lydia was startled. What did he mean?She replied, "It's alright.""Alright? I don't think you're very happy. At least not as happy as you were at the Miller Group, right?""Well, yes." Lydia could not hide her feelings in front of Henry."Have you ever thought about why that is?"Lydia was silent."I don't know if you've thought about it. I thought about it just now. The most important reason is that you view the Sky Avenue Group as my mother's or my company."You have too much burden. You're afraid that the group will lose money if you do something wrong, and we will be unhappy. Am I right?" Henry asked further.Lydia nodded. Henry's words touched her heart. She would not have accepted Anna's invita
Henry did not expect any return; he did not care about the money. However, it was obvious that Lydia wanted to talk about it, so he naturally had to go along with her.Lydia wanted to show that the investment was reliable.She had engaged experts to perform detailed reviews. The outcome would be incredible once the Akemi Tech Corporation succeeded in battery development. The battery's charging speed would be amazing, and its durability was also high and extremely safe.There were simply no negative points about the battery.However, they still faced some problems that were difficult to break through. There was not much hope for the time being.However, Jensen's enthusiasm and confidence gave Lydia faith. She knew Jensen was a serious researcher. He would not say something that he could not achieve. Since he said it would take at most one year, he would definitely be able to deliver it.She believed in him. If Jennifer had not kept Lydia's money, Lydia would have invested in the b
Anna was stunned as she said, "Unhappy? Why?"Lydia was anxious. She tried her best to perform well, but Henry had destroyed it. Anna must be upset with her.She could only hint to Henry to stop talking nonsense. After all, no one liked people who only knew how to complain but not solve problems.Henry did not seem to notice her as he said, "Two reasons. Firstly, the company is yours, it's too restrictive. Secondly, it's still because the company is yours; she can't make decisions freely."Lydia nearly went crazy when she heard what Henry said. She wanted to grab the phone.However, Anna was an intelligent person. She understood the reasons as soon as she heard Henry's words. Lydia feared that Anna would be dissatisfied with her performance and felt constrained.It was also probable that the senior managers had some opinions about Lydia. Otherwise, Henry would not have said Lydia could not make the decisions.However, the more that happened, the more Anna admired Lydia. Any ordi
"Really? Do you remember what I told you earlier? No matter what Lydia asked for, you must do it?""That project will likely cause the company to lose millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.""Hundreds of millions? Do you think I can't afford to lose a few hundred million?" Anna asked angrily."Of course not! That amount is nothing to you." Allan's expression looked horrible."It's good you understand that. Besides, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Are you afraid Lydia will take your position as the CEO?"Anna said coldly, "Well, you don't need to worry about that."There was no need for him to worry about that?Allan was delighted. It seemed Lydia would not be able to take over his position after all. Otherwise, why would Anna say that?"If Lydia wanted the CEO position, it would've already been hers."What?How could that be? Allan was stunned."I don't need to hide anything now. Lydia is my future daughter-in-law, and my assets will be hers eventually.
Lydia hung up the call. She was a little lost and unable to gather her thoughts.She felt that Anna was too nice to her; she was spoiling her.Henry almost scared her to death earlier. Lydia said unhappily, "Don't do that again. You almost scared me to my death.""What's there to be afraid of? You think too much."Henry smiled gently and said, "Don't you think my mother is kind to you? The more relaxed you are, the happier she'll be."Lydia was stunned. She agreed with Henry as she remembered the situation earlier. She asked, "Really?""Of course, because that's how you truly are," Henry said.Lydia finally understood it.A family should be open and honest to each other and speak candidly.It was tiring having to pretend when one was out in the world. It was too much if one needed to worry further at home.After figuring that out, Lydia felt much more relaxed and comfortable. She was often unhappy when she was with the Millers.She was happiest when she was working. She had
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
