Everyone was stunned. Many people in the room did not even know Cecilia.

Cecilia and Lora were also in shock. No matter how hard they tried, they could not have imagined something so far-fetched happening.

It was simply unbelievable.

Cecilia had considered the possibility of a promotion, but she dismissed the idea as there was no sign to show it would happen.

'How could Henry call this a small matter?' Cecilia thought.

Lora was equally dumbfounded, sharing the same thoughts as Cecilia. They exchanged bewildered looks.

Henry was too good to them!

However, not everyone was entirely on board with that decision. The director of the channel sales department said, "Mr. Truman, I fully support your decision. But as far as I know, Ms. Leon hasn't been with the company for long and is unfamiliar with its operations.

"Furthermore, she's also quite young. Isn't it a bit too hasty to have her take on such a significant role?"

Henry glanced at the man and, instead of addressing his concern

    "It's just so sudden!"Both women were still trying to process the situation."Take it easy. Go ahead and do your best. You have my support," Henry said with a smile."Cecilia, are you confident?""No, not really!" Cecilia replied, slightly embarrassed. She forced a smile."It's not that I don't know how to manage the company; taking over so suddenly is overwhelming. I don't even know where to start.""Don't worry. Wilfred will assist you for a week," Henry said calmly."Wilfred is capable, but he's—""Don't worry about it. I've warned him; he wouldn't dare touch you. He'll only be there to assist and guide you," Henry said."Besides, I've given him a deadline. If he can't make you a competent general manager within a week, he's done!"With such a setup, Wilfred would surely be diligent in guiding Cecilia to ensure a smooth transition.Seeing how much effort Henry put into ensuring she could handle the position, Cecilia was deeply moved."Thank you so much, Henry. With your

    "Indeed!"Henry nodded in acknowledgment, though he would not mention the Hoods' present state to the women."Henry, you're truly amazing and impressive!" Cecilia and Lora gazed at Henry with stars in their eyes.Their starry-eyed looks made Henry a little uncomfortable. He quickly said, "The Hoods are nothing. No need to get so worked up.""You have no idea how terrifying the Hoods are in everyone's eyes."The two women smiled wryly."That's because they haven't seen anything impressive. Anyway, I basically got this company for free. So, feel free to go ahead without worrying about any losses."Also, the company has many talented people; you should make the most of them and work together.""I'll do my best!" Cecilia nodded."I'm sending you something useful," Henry said, sending them a file."What's that?" The two women opened the file and were shocked by the detailed information. It contained all the preferences and issues of the middle and senior management of the company.

    "But—" Lora said."Don't dwell on it. They're lucky to get away with such a small amount as compensation. They should be grateful that you didn't pursue it further," Henry said firmly.The two women sighed. They could only accept it, albeit reluctantly."What's the second thing?" Henry asked.Cecilia hesitated, then bit her lip and said, "I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend for a while."Henry was taken aback. That would not work; he was leaving the following day and did not have time for such antics.Seeing Henry's reaction, Cecilia hurriedly said, "I'm out of options. My parents are coming to Eastonia. They're also bringing a suitor they've chosen for me."If I don't have a boyfriend, they'll force me to get engaged to that person."Henry frowned and asked, "Are your parents insisting you marry him?""I don't know why, but they're adamant about it. They're arriving this afternoon, and I'm out of options, so I'm asking for your help," Cecilia said helplessly.She rememb

    The train was punctual, and soon, an elderly couple emerged.They appeared to be an ordinary working-class family with a few belongings.Next to them were two young people.One was dressed in branded clothes, hands empty, with an arrogant attitude. He was scanning the surroundings with a proud, self-satisfied look.The other young man seemed somewhat restrained, looking more earnest, with a furrowed brow indicating he might be troubled. He was also carrying some belongings.As soon as the group showed up, Cecilia quickly released her hold on Henry and hurried forward.Henry shook his head in resignation, letting go as soon as the group arrived. It seemed pointless for her to hold his arm earlier. However, it did feel quite nice.Cecilia called out cheerfully, "Dad, Mom!"The elderly couple were delighted to see their daughter and responded warmly.Cecilia then turned to the two young men, especially the one with the haughty demeanor who was staring at Henry with an unrelenting

    "What do you mean by that?" Deric sneered."Are you only boasting? You have no real business?"Cecilia angrily retorted, "Young Master Pierson, you're the one boasting here. Henry's abilities are far beyond your imagination.""Show me," Deric said, his anger growing as Cecilia defended Henry.Since they first met, Cecilia had been an extraordinary figure in his eyes. He would not let anyone steal her from him.Seeing the escalating tension, Michael, Cecilia's father, quickly intervened. He said, "Let's not quarrel. We're hungry. Let's find somewhere to eat."Deric decided to bide his time, planning to show Henry the vast difference between them later.Unfazed by the situation, Henry thought it did not matter if Deric was dealt with—the meal would still happen. It might even be less awkward if he waited until after dinner to deal with Deric and then leave quickly.With Michael's intervention, everyone set off together.However, since Henry's car only had five seats and Deric wa

    Henry was surprised by Harvey's position in the county's local government. Even though it seemed high to the average person, it meant little to him.Henry thought of the powerful figures in Aurelia City, the influential people under the Golden Liberty, and the Holy Clan's high-ranking members. Even Brad, the governor of South Valley Province and a close associate of Henry's family, was a significant figure, too. Brad was the leader in South Valley Province, and his close ties with Henry made Deric's uncle's role seem insignificant by comparison.Seeing Henry lost in thought, Michael mistook it for shock and said, "Yes, so you must be cautious!"When we get to the restaurant, offer him a few drinks and apologize.""That's not necessary." Henry shook his head."Yeah, don't worry, Dad. Henry will be fine," Cecilia said quickly.She knew Henry's capabilities were impressive. Although she was not sure about his connections, she knew that with his control over the Hood Group and its ec

    Amy supported her husband. She did not know Henry well enough to make a judgment but believed Cecilia would be well cared for by someone like Deric. At least Cecilia would not have to struggle as much for the rest of her life.Amy said, "Henry, it's not that I have anything against you. It's just that Young Master Pierson is genuinely exceptional and a good match for Cecilia. You may be a good person, but the difference between you two is quite significant."Henry was a little amused. He pretended to be Cecilia's boyfriend, but her parents looked down on him.He glanced at Cecilia with a smile.Cecilia was anxious and quickly defended Henry. "Says who? Well, I got my current job because of Henry.""Ridiculous! Cecilia, you've never lied to us! Now you're making things up. You think you can fool me so easily?" Michael scolded."It's true!" Cecilia protested."Stop lying. You're working for the Hood Group, right?""Yes.""The Hood Group belongs to the Hoods, and they're very pow

    After driving for a while, they finally arrived at the East River Restaurant parking lot in Erstonia District.The East River Restaurant was a top-tier restaurant in Eastonia, renowned for hosting gatherings of the wealthy and influential. Ordinary people often found it nearly impossible to secure a reservation there.Even though Michael and Amy were not used to such places, they could tell it was far superior to the venues they were accustomed to in their county.Amy said, "Henry, this place looks quite fancy. Will the meal be expensive?"Not wanting them to feel uncomfortable, Henry replied casually, "Not really. We'll just have some simple home-cooked dishes. It'll probably cost about 100 dollars per pax.""That's good to hear. You look ordinary, so you mustn't overspend. By the way, your clothes may seem plain, but they fit well and look nicely-coordinated," Amy said after examining Henry closely.Henry chuckled and said, "Just something I picked up casually."Although his c

    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?

    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.
