"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
Madison was mad at Henry's words, but she had no choice. She said, "Do you dare to let me make a call for help?""You're being aggressive now, aren't you?"I'll allow it. You can make several calls—bring any support you may have.""You mean it?" Madison was not convinced.Sheena quickly said, "No! Henry, I know you're formidable, but Madison knows too many people. You can't let her make any call for help; it'll only harm you.""It's not a big deal.""Mr. Truman—""Don't worry, she can't cause any trouble. Make your call, Madison," Henry said."Fine, you asked for it." Madison took out her phone, ready to make a call.At that moment, Henry's phone rang; it was Winson. Had he already found something in such a short time?"Hey, Winson!""My guys have found some evidence. Marco did this whole thing." Winson got straight to the point."Can you prove it?""Yes!" Winson affirmed."Besides him, two former shareholders of the Miller Group are also involved.""It looks like more t
"Yes! Do you know him?" Henry was surprised.Madison completely collapsed as Henry admitted that.In fact, she could confirm how terrifying Henry was, something that made Winson fearful.No wonder he was not afraid of Jeffery and even said that Jeffery would not allow the Royal Syndicate's members to mess with him. Everything seemed true if Henry could make Winson so respectful of him.Madison finally understood why the other party had been fearless all along. She had been too self-righteous, feeling like she could deal with Henry easily.Henry shook his head as he noticed Madison was visibly scared.Sheena and Penny were surprised because they noticed Madison seemed lost following Henry's call.'What's wrong with that call, and who's Winson?' they wondered.They did not know Winson."Mr.Truman. I'm sorry, I—" Madison trembled.Henry shook his head and said, "It seems like you now know I'm someone you can't afford to mess with.""Yes, yes, I'm sorry, I—""You don't need to
That was the best time for revenge.Even though Sheena had not touched Madison, she felt better when she saw the latter's swollen face. Madison cared so much about her appearance.Then, Penny said, "Madison, I have a question I've been wanting to ask you, and you must answer me truthfully."Then she turned to Henry and asked, "Mr. Truman, can you help us with this?"Henry was taken aback momentarily and said, "Of course, I'll help you get the most truthful answer from her.""Okay, thank you, Mr. Truman!"After thanking him, Penny calmed down a little and asked, "Madison, did you cause the fire that disfigured Sheena years ago?"Madison's face changed drastically as soon as she heard the question.She had kept the secret for so long and never told anyone about it. She wondered why Penny would ask such a question.Sheena's face turned even paler upon hearing that question. She had always thought it was an accident and never considered that someone had sabotaged it.Sheena asked
Henry sighed. He glared at Madison and said, "Look at what you've done!"At that moment, even the cunning and ruthless Madison felt regretful.At Sheena's request, Madison briefly recounted what had happened back then."You did this to me simply because I refused to listen to you to accompany those rich men?"I was so good to you. How could you do this to me?" Hearing the reasons behind it, Sheena almost broke down again."I'm sorry. I was really angry at the time. You refused me more than once, embarrassing me, and you even scolded me." Madison also felt wronged."Stop justifying your actions!" Penny got angry and scolded Madison again before comforting Sheena.After all, with Henry's help, Sheena could finally receive treatment and recover.Sheena finally calmed down.Henry asked, "What do you plan to do with her, Ms. Dane? Do you want her to compensate for your losses?""No need, let her face legal consequences." Henry had already helped her so much, and Sheena did not wan
