"Did you solve everything with the company?" Jennifer asked as she pulled Lydia aside."Yeah, there's no longer any problem. Thanks to Henry," Lydia said, hoping to improve their impression of him.However, Jennifer looked disdainful. "Thanks to him? What did he do? He just followed your orders. Otherwise, he's just a useless guy." She continued to dismiss Henry."Mom, you're mistaken!" Lydia explained."He did everything that day on his own initiative. It wasn't my instruction. He said those things to make the company's people fear and admire me.""Nonsense! Absolute nonsense!"Lydia, are you trying to fool me because you want to marry that poor man? Do you think I'm stupid?" Jennifer retorted loudly. She did not believe a word of what Lydia said."I'm telling the truth!" Lydia exclaimed loudly."I think you're lying to me." Jennifer's voice was equally loud."You and Henry can't be together. Your grandfather came back yesterday and said that you and Henry must divorce as soo
After the call with Lydia, Henry immediately left to drive to the Majestic River Hotel. He had to meet Sheena first and then plan the next steps carefully. He was determined to let the mastermind behind the incident pay a hefty price.At the same time, Sheena and Penny waited anxiously for Henry."Penny, do you think he'll be able to do it?" Sheena asked. She had been disappointed once too many times before."You already know how capable he is. I think he can do it; it doesn't seem like he's lying," Penny replied, even though she was not entirely confident."I hope it won't be another disappointment," Sheena murmured.While they were talking, there was a knock on the door. Sheena's eyes lit up. "That must be him.""Yeah, I'll get the door!"Penny got up immediately. However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw several menacing men and a woman. That woman was none other than Madison, whom they had trouble with before.Madison looked at Penny viciously, then barged in with he
Madison was there to extort them, too.She had previously cheated Sheena out of a large sum of money, but she spent the majority of it on her men. So she needed more money."Fifteen million dollars? You think I can come up with that much money?" Sheena was angry."I don't care. I'll sell her off if you can't come up with the money. And I'll reward them with you. I'm sure they'll like it," Madison said evilly.Those words caused her men's eyes to light up instantly. Even though Sheena's face was bruised and unsightly, her skin was exceptionally fair and attractive, and her figure was flawless, with long and charming legs. Even with her face covered, it was still enough to make people confused. Any man would enjoy spending time with a woman like her.In fact, when Sheena's face was unharmed, countless men revered her as a goddess.Sheena laughed. She snarled, "I treated you so well, yet you're repaying my kindness with ingratitude?""What's wrong with that?" Madison's expression w
Such words made Sheena's face turn paler. She was aware Madison was in contact with many powerful people, but she did not expect her to know members of the Royal Syndicate.Sheena knew how formidable the Royal Syndicate was; if that were the case, Madison would probably harm Henry if he were there."You finally realized it, right? I'll let him experience something worse than death if he shows up here.""Is that so? What does it feel like? I've never experienced it before."Just then, a faint male voice came from the doorway. When Sheena heard this voice, her eyes lit up immediately with surprise.'Henry's here!'Soon, she became nervous again because he was about to encounter those from the Royal Syndicate.Penny was also stunned; her mouth was gagged, so she could not speak. She had been very anxious and even thought Henry was in cahoots with Madison. However, it seemed like that was not the case."You're here, Henry!" Madison said as she glared at Henry.He slapped her in pu
"Why are you shaking your head?""It means you're not just trash but also retarded," Henry said calmly.Penny and Sheena were dumbfounded. Henry was not affected by the fact that the men were members of the Royal Syndicate. They thought Henry might not be aware of how formidable the Royal Syndicate was. His words would surely provoke those men.The men were furious. One of them said, "This man is too despicable, Ms. Ertris. I can't stand it anymore.""There's no need to hold back since he's so ignorant. Teach him a good lesson. But, as I said, I want him to experience what it's like to be worse off than dead.""Then we must make him experience it!""So, don't kill him!" Madison said coldly."You brought this upon yourself. We'll let you know who the real masters are," Don sneered, signaling for one of the men to attack.They were furious; they were disrespected in front of a beautiful woman.One of the men threw a hook punch at Henry.They were indeed skilled; just one of the
At that moment, even Sheena wanted to remind Henry that the Royal Syndicate was formidable. However, it did not seem appropriate, so she said nothing.Madison, on the other hand, was astonished. The Royal Syndicate had undergone a transformation and rarely showed up openly then. Hence, Henry might not be aware of their reputation. She said, "You have no idea what the Royal Syndicate is, don't you? Their chairman is Mr. Ford from the Everising Chamber of Commerce, the richest man in Hodbridge."If you don't know about the Royal Syndicate, you must be familiar with the Everising Chamber of Commerce. It's the chamber of commerce where almost all the big bosses in Hodbridge gather."She waited for Henry to look fearful.However, Henry's expression remained unchanged. Indeed, that could not faze him. He responded calmly, "Oh, really? That impressive?""Of course. So you should help them up. Then, kneel and apologize to them. Maybe you won't end up so miserably," Madison sneered coldly.
"It's very simple. Since you claim to be members of the Royal Syndicate, why don't you call your boss and ask him to come and deal with me?""What?"Henry's words stunned the entire room.Penny was speechless.She said to Henry, "The Royal Syndicate is very formidable. Please don't underestimate them. Even the entire Hodbridge is afraid of them.""I'm not underestimating them, but I need to deal with this once and for all. It's troublesome to keep dealing with these small fries."This is the perfect time to reveal the man behind them, and let's settle this once and for all to avoid future troubles," Henry said.Everyone was speechless. They had never seen such arrogant people before.Don felt bitter. He did want to call someone from the Royal Syndicate for help. Plus, he was not an actual member but only happened to know a few friends from the Royal Syndicate.Don realized he had chosen the wrong fight because Henry was calm and composed."Go ahead, make the call," Henry urge
"What are you doing, Don? Do you believe his nonsense? Do you think the legendary Mr. Ford would be afraid of him?""He's just trying to scare us," Madison finally said."You shut up! We wouldn't have provoked Mr. Truman if it weren't for you!"If I can leave here alive today, I won't let you off the hook!" Don scolded.Then, Don turned to Henry and pleaded, "Mr. Truman, please give us a chance and spare us.""And you two! Kneel and apologize now!"The other two men had always implicitly trusted Don. They could only join in begging for mercy and gave themselves a few slaps in the face.Henry nodded and said, "Alright, you looked sincere enough. I'll forgive you for now.""Thank you, Mr. Truman! Thank you, Mr. Truman," Don said excitedly.After a while, they had calmed down enough to leave the place, not even sparing a glance at Madison.She kept shouting at them, but no one paid her any attention.Don breathed a sigh of relief after they left the hotel. He looked at his two
