Eric took the phone, clearly flustered. He stammered, "Grandpa!""You idiot! I don't have a grandson like you!"I told you to behave, but you never listen. Do you think the Levies are invincible and that we can fix every mess you make?"I'd come over and beat you to death myself if I weren't in the Aurelia now!""Grandpa, what are you talking about? Who is he that you're so scared of?""He's capable of crushing us with the snap of his fingers. No, just a word from him would wipe us out completely."Eric was dumbfounded. He knew his grandfather well—the man was proud and unyielding. Henry must be unimaginably powerful for his grandpa to say something so outrageous.How could that be? Not even someone from the supreme clans would be that audacious."You don't believe me, do you?" Alfred continued."You should know that the Levies' success today is all because of our connection to the Golden Liberty."Alfred knew he had to make Eric understand the gravity of the situation. Other
The Yorks started to feel hopeful, especially after seeing Eric's reaction on the phone. They watched him closely, and their hope grew stronger.They wondered how Henry could make Alfred bow, and Eric, who had been so arrogant, seemed completely different then.Eric hung up the phone, trembling as he faced Henry. Then, he knelt and surrendered!The Yorks could not believe it. That confirmed that Alfred was truly afraid of Henry. The young man had completely overpowered Eric without any effort, just as he had said he would.The once high and mighty Levies' heir was indeed just an ant before Henry.Everyone was even more shocked when Eric started to kneel and knocked his head on the floor. He cried out as his forehead was bleeding, "I'm sorry, Master of Golden Liberty! I was wrong. I was ignorant and offended you. Please spare me."The whole room was stunned.Did he say Master of Golden Liberty?Henry was the Master of Golden Liberty, the legendary figure with immense power and r
"Just like I did today. But I realize my mistakes and won't do such terrible things again.""Besides that, I've heard you've hurt many women, even very cruelly," Henry asked coldly.Henry did not know the specifics. Lilian had told him everything during their chat earlier.Eric's face turned even paler. He quickly said, "Yes, yes, but I do know I'm in the wrong now. I won't dare do it again. I promise I'll delete those videos I recorded."Henry paused and asked, "You recorded videos?"Eric looked embarrassed. He had a habit of watching playbacks to find new ways to torture and excite himself."For your grandfather's sake, hand over the videos, and I won't hold you responsible for today.""This—"Eric hesitated. The content of those videos was too perverse and ugly. His reputation would be destroyed if those videos got leaked."What? You think I can't deal with you without the videos?" Henry asked."No! It's just a piece of cake for you to deal with me and my family. I'll give t
Eric quickly composed himself before answering the call, "What's up, John?""Young Master Levy, are you free tomorrow?" John asked eagerly. He wanted to seize the chance to discuss the wedding with Lydia, especially since Eric seemed interested in her. John had always admired Eric and thought he would perfectly match Lydia. The bond between the two families could be strengthened if they got together.Eric perked up and replied, "I don't have any plans at the moment.""Great! We were a bit hasty before. I'd like to invite you to lunch and talk about you and Lydia," John said."You mean Lydia is willing to be with me?" Eric could not hide his excitement."Not really, for now, but don't worry. Her parents and I like you very much, so we'll do our best to make it happen," John said."Alright. To be honest, I'm very fond of Lydia. But if she doesn't like me, I won't force it," Eric replied, trying to sound like a gentleman.John hung up with satisfaction. He was even more convinced t
"You were amazing just now! I had no idea you were so powerful," Lilian said excitedly.Bowen felt a little anxious, worried that Lilian might say something to upset Henry. After all, dealing with the Levies was a piece of cake for Henry. However, Henry did not mind and laughed. "I'm a man of my word.""Eric is no match for you," Lilian said in excitement."You've always been my idol."Seeing Henry's puzzled look, Lilian explained, "I meant your other identity."Henry finally understood and chuckled. "So, do you want an autograph and a photo with me?""If that's possible, of course!" Lilian eagerly responded.Henry shook his head and smiled. "Alright, I was just joking. Since the Yorks are fine, I'll head off now.""You're leaving already?" Bowen was stunned. It seemed that Henry was leaving without taking the promised compensation. He then wondered if Henry might be interested in Lilian, considering how friendly their conversation had been.Lilian was talented and beautiful a
Henry was supposed to take over as CEO, but the incident with the Yorks delayed him. He decided to call in and postpone it to the next day. He was not concerned much about the Neptune Group; letting things get chaotic might even help him identify capable individuals to promote later.However, Lydia found out and called him, clearly annoyed. "Henry, what are you doing? Aren't you supposed to start as CEO today?""Something came up. I'll go tomorrow," he replied."What happened? Did someone try to hurt you?" Lydia asked."No, I just helped a friend deal with a big problem and took care of someone you're eager to get rid of," Henry said with a smile."Who's that? You don't mean Eric, do you?" Lydia was startled. She wondered if Henry beat Eric."Yeah, it was him. I slapped him so hard," Henry replied."You always act so recklessly!" Lydia was exasperated."You can't just go around hitting people. It can cause big trouble. Does he know your name?""No, he doesn't.""Good, but be
"So you must know how powerful the Chapman Legacy is. It's just a piece of cake to kill like you," Ted said coldly."You think you're strong? Even Jeffery Ford, the richest man in Hodbridge, is nothing but an ant to me.""And?" Henry was curious why Ted was contacting him."I'm just warning you—Chansey is mine. Stay away from her.""What if I don't?" Henry replied.He finally realized Ted must have found out about Chansey's phone call. It was no wonder she hung up quickly; he was too controlling."Think about your end-of-life wishes then," Ted said and hung up, cursing under his breath.Ted had ordered his men to kill Henry if he contacted Chansey again. He had not acted directly because he did not want to disturb Chansey, whom he still needed.Henry frowned. It was clear Chansey was not living well. However, he had not received any updates from the Golden Liberty Secret Agent he had arranged. As he pondered, his phone rang—it was one of the secret agents."Master!""How was
When Henry questioned the secret agent, he quickly replied, "Yes, but Ted uses a long-lost domineering ancient technique known as the Tyrant Technique. No woman can cultivate with him."Henry's expression changed. He had heard of it even though he did not know it himself."Isn't he supposed to practice the Chapman Methods?""No, he's not.""Then I understand why he wants to marry Chansey," Henry said coldly.Ted aimed to drain Chansey's life. While Henry's technique could enhance her cultivation and even purify her body, the Tyrant Technique would cause her to age rapidly and die."Why?" the secret agent asked in surprise."Nothing to it. Keep monitoring them closely. I'll handle the rest."Henry hung up. It seemed he needed to visit the Chapman Legacy. However, it was no easy target. Even though he was not afraid of them, causing a big scene would be detrimental to everyone involved. Rumor had it that the Chapman Legacy had a hidden peak-stage Grandmaster with terrifying stren
