Lydia smiled bitterly as she watched Simon exit in an embarrassed manner. She felt that Henry did not need to provoke Simon further; they could not defend themselves if the Walkers came after them later.However, she said nothing. Instead, she asked, "Henry, do you think he'll keep his promise?""No," Henry replied; he could tell by Simon's eyes, which concealed his hatred and anger."Ah—" Lydia was taken aback. She asked, "Why did you let him go so easily then?""What else could I do? I can't kill him, and I can't keep him in prison." Henry shrugged helplessly.Lydia smiled bitterly. It was definitely a difficult situation. Letting him go meant that he might return for vengeance.She then asked helplessly, "So, what should we do now?""There's nothing to worry about. He won't cause any trouble," Henry said, smiling."Really?""Trust me. Please notify me immediately if anything happens, and don't do anything foolish," Henry said."Okay. I was just worried about causing you tr
"I'm being serious.""Okay, let's stop talking about it," Lydia said."Our main concern now is figuring out how to deal with the Walkers' retaliation tomorrow.""Don't worry; I have a plan. You have nothing to worry about. Just go home and get some rest," Henry assured her.If the Walkers approached them, Henry would be willing to assist the Supreme Defenders in dealing with them. He expected Denton, the Walkers' top master, to arrive personally, accompanied by other masters. If that were the case, it would undoubtedly help the Supreme Defenders, who were planning a raid on the Walkers the following day. That was why Henry advised Lydia not to worry.He did not expect Simon to be so despicable and shameless as to invite Lydia to his hotel. Fortunately, Henry acted quickly to avoid the disastrous consequences, which would not be undone even by Simon's execution.Lydia returned home after Henry had reassured her. She had no choice but to trust him completely. On her way back, she c
John's words left both William and Jennifer slightly stunned.Lydia's expression changed slightly. She assumed her grandfather would not find out, but it appeared he had already guessed."Simon placed that call under threat. However, you're all so naive that you have no idea what will happen next."John complained bitterly, "You let him go solely because of his promise. He must have left with revenge in mind rather than keeping his word."I'm afraid the Walkers have already been informed and will take big action tomorrow.""It can't be that fast, can it?" Lydia was frightened.Jennifer became even more terrified and, in panic, asked, "Dad, do you mean Simon will retaliate against us?""Of course!" John replied coldly."Lydia, you're smart enough not to make such a simple mistake. Have you been completely bewitched by Henry?""I—" Lydia wanted to argue."Enough! It's pointless to say anything now." John interrupted Lydia.He then asked, "Where is Henry now?""Why do you want
"Okay," Henry replied calmly."How can you remain so calm? Don't take this lightly. We Millers may not have anyone stronger than you, but my grandfather is good at finding people," Lydia remarked."Don't worry. I haven't gotten close enough to you yet; nothing will happen to me easily," Henry said jokingly."What are you saying!" Lydia's face turned slightly red, and she could not help but recall that night at the hotel. Even though she had few memories of it, a strange sensation crept into her mind.Lydia felt uneasy even after she hung up the phone.John's men spent significant time investigating before discovering Henry's location. However, they were no match for him and were quickly defeated.John stayed up all night waiting for good news. However, he was furious when he discovered his men could not defeat Henry. John assumed Henry must have trained hard on the mountain since childhood, making him difficult to beat for ordinary people. However, no matter how strong Henry was,
"What?!"Henry's words stunned John and the others. They took a moment to react."Henry, are you insane?""Do you know what you're doing? You're provoking the Walkers and bringing them here? Are you trying to kill us?"Henry chuckled and said, "Since you believe I'm here to harm you, I'll just fulfill your expectations.""You—""Henry, don't you think you've gone too far? I've always treated you well; is this how you repay us?" John screamed in rage."You sent people to kill me. Is that what you are trying to say?"I doubt I'm the one in debt now," Henry said without hesitation, even though Lydia was present.His words rendered the Millers speechless. In fact, they had not given Henry much, but he had helped them several times, most notably by helping them join the Everising Chamber of Commerce, which almost saved the Millers. John had no idea Henry did all that."Whatever happens, this is Lydia's family. You shouldn't harm her," John stated coldly."You claim to be her fami
"Oh, yeah! I forgot about that. But will they act today?" Lydia quickly asked."They will. They're already on their way." Henry confirmed it as he had received reliable information."That's great. I had no idea you had such powerful connections to bring people who could deal with the Walkers." Lydia purposefully praised Henry to give him credit.The Millers were unaware that Henry did not summon those people; instead, they were there for the Walkers for themselves. That was an excellent opportunity to deceive the Millers.Even Henry was surprised; he had not told Lydia that he had arranged for someone to deal with the Walkers, but she seemed to know about it.The Millers were even more perplexed and asked, "What are you talking about, Lydia? Who did he bring? Who's powerful enough to confront the Walkers?""Henry brought some incredibly powerful people," Lydia exclaimed joyfully."That's impossible; he's simply bluffing. How could he find someone to deal with the Walkers? They'r
Everyone was stunned to see John thrown across the room in such a casual manner. Lydia rushed toward her grandfather. Fortunately, John did not sustain serious injuries when he landed. Henry had subtly cushioned his fall with a burst of internal energy. Otherwise, John would have sustained severe injuries.William and Jennifer appeared tense, particularly Jennifer, whose legs shook uncontrollably. When she heard Denton was looking for Henry, she immediately pointed to him and said in a trembling but excited voice, "It's him; it's him! His name is Henry! "We've always supported Young Master Walker and hoped to form an alliance through marriage. He was the one who had been sabotaging everything and causing so much trouble."Denton looked at Henry and said, "There you are, Henry. You nullified my strike with one-tenth of my power, allowing the old man to land safely."You appeared to have something up your sleeve; no wonder you're so arrogant."Denton's words shocked everyone yet ag
Lydia did not know why, but she was not as upset as she had expected to be after Simon's mean words.It was truly disgusting to be liked by such a person.However, Henry's help had yet to arrive. She must help buy some time before then.Nobody noticed Henry's cold expression when Simon described Lydia as a bitch.He nearly made a move to cripple Simon.Then, Denton said coldly, "No need to waste your words with these lowlifes, Simon. Don't worry. You can do whatever you want with that woman tonight."Now, Henry, will you disable yourself and beg for mercy, or shall I help you with that?"Simon had requested that Henry be thoroughly humiliated and tortured before his death."Henry, why aren't you crawling over and begging for mercy?" Simon spoke arrogantly.Henry chuckled. "What makes you think I'm going to kneel and beg for mercy? You guys are definitely seeking death.""How dare you?!" Denton was furious, and a powerful aura erupted from him, ready to attack.However, a gro
