Everyone was dumbfounded again, especially George and Malcomn, who stared at Marq wide-eyed. They had been expecting Henry to suffer, so they were utterly surprised by Marq's sudden apology.Jack and the others were also confused by the situation. However, after a moment's thought, Jack wondered if Marq had recognized Henry's capabilities.Nathan and Elise wore similar expressions—twisted and ugly. Wesley turned red with anger and asked, "Marq, what do you mean?"Marq completely ignored him, bowed his head, and waited for Henry to speak.Henry chuckled and pointed at Wesley, saying calmly, "Indeed, you know what to do. Here's the deal—beat the hell out of that old man, and I won't hold you accountable for your mistake today."Everyone was stunned. Not only did Henry knock down Elise and Nathan, but he was also threatening Wesley!All eyes were on Marq, waiting to see how he would respond.Marq was indeed in a dilemma. The Scotts were quite powerful; they could easily hire someon
"You said the Scotts could wipe us out in minutes. What can we do?""You!"Elise was infuriated.However, at that moment, Marq finally stopped. Even though Henry had not called for a stop, Marq did not dare to kill Wesley.Wesley's face was swollen, but he could still stand, indicating that Marq had slightly held back. Otherwise, he could have killed Wesley with just a few hits.Wesley felt humiliated, his face full of grief and anger. He regretted not bringing more men. If he had called the police or others, handling a few young troublemakers would have been easy.Marq turned to Henry and said cautiously, "Sir, I've done as you instructed.""Very well. You've done a good job. Consider the matter between us settled," Henry said calmly."Thank you, sir!" Marq appreciated Henry's magnanimity in forgiving him so easily."May I leave now?" Marq did not want to stay any longer; he needed to prepare for Scotts' inevitable retaliation."Go ahead," Henry said nonchalantly.The Shaws
As Lance's powerful voice filled the room, everyone froze momentarily and looked toward the entrance.Wesley's face changed when he saw Lance.Lance was no ordinary club master. Many of his disciples were influential people, and numerous powerful individuals entrusted their precious children to his fighting club for training. George was one of those disciples, though he was far from the most distinguished.However, Wesley felt Lance had been overly arrogant. The Scotts had shown him respect out of fear, but that did not mean they should be intimidated by him. It seemed unreasonable for Lance to involve himself for the sake of Henry, disregarding the Scotts' status.Jack and the others were equally taken aback. It was clear that Lance was there to support Henry.George quickly greeted him respectfully, "You're here, Master!"Lance nodded and continued walking while acknowledging Jack's polite greeting with a mere nod and not sparing him with another glance.He headed directly tow
Even Wesley was utterly stunned.He had no idea when he had ever shown disdain for the Master of Golden Liberty; he could not possibly have spoken arrogantly in front of such a formidable figure.'Wait!'Is Henry the Master of Golden Liberty?'No way! That's impossible!' Wesley thought.At the same time, everyone else also looked at Henry with puzzled expressions, including Malcomn.While everyone was still confused, Lance immediately kneeled in front of Henry and said respectfully, "Master!"Please forgive me. As Thunder Envoy, I should've welcomed you personally!"Everyone was once again shocked by Lance's words.People had only speculated about Lance's connection to the Golden Liberty, but they had never been sure. It seemed everything was confirmed then.Most importantly, Lance revealed that Henry was the Master of Golden Liberty.It seemed so unbelievable; they even thought Lance had made a mistake.Lydia and Mike, who knew about Henry's identity, were also stunned by
Compared to the excitement and thrill felt by the Shaws, the Scotts had a different experience.Nathan, who had always been fascinated by the mysterious and powerful Master of Golden Liberty, could not believe how arrogantly he had acted in front of him. As he noticed Henry's gaze directed at him, his face turned pale, and he nearly wet himself on the spot.Elise's face was equally grim. She hung her head in silence.Wesley, on the other hand, was filled with regret. He had failed to notice Marq's abnormal behavior earlier.It was too late for regrets; he could only think of a rescue plan. Otherwise, the Scotts would be doomed!Malcomn and George were also stunned. They had been extremely dismissive of Henry before. They might have already died by then if not for Jack.They looked at Henry with fear and dared not approach to apologize.Jane was shocked. She looked at Mike, full of disbelief and questions in her eyes. She never imagined that Henry could be so terrifyingly powerfu
Wesley knelt right in front of Jane.Even Elise could not believe her eyes; she knew how much pride Wesley had. Yet, there he was, doing something so degrading. It showed the immense fear he harbored.Not only did Wesley kneel, but to everyone's astonishment, he angrily said, "What are you two standing there for? Get over here and kneel."Because of your reckless behavior, we've offended the Master of Golden Liberty. Get over here and apologize."He cursed inwardly, knowing that many higher-ups tried to curry favor with Lance.They had no choice but to kneel in front of Henry if Lance had done so.Elise was mortified by such public humiliation and unwilling to do so, but she understood that they needed to seek Henry's forgiveness.Faced with Wesley's fierce glare, she caved in and reluctantly knelt.On the other hand, Nathan had already knelt ahead of Elise and quickly said, "I'm sorry, Master of Golden Liberty. I've offended you. Please give us a chance and forgive us."Elise
At that moment, no one noticed Marq sneaking in at the entrance. His curiosity had gotten the better of him, and he wanted to see how the situation would unfold.However, he saw the Scotts kneeling before Henry and the others. He was extremely nervous, so he fled immediately.Mike did not expect Henry to let him handle the situation; Henry wanted to show the Shaws that Mike held a significant position and that Henry treated him well.Mike felt deeply moved and was about to speak.Wesley was panicked and quickly pleaded, "Young Master, I'm truly aware of my mistake. Please give me a chance to make it up to you."You can name whatever you want.""Yes, Young Master Miller! I was stupid and blind. I'll do whatever you want," Elise said, trying to appease Mike.Jack silently lamented that he and his wife had not had as much insight as their daughter.Jane looked at Mike with admiration, feeling incredibly proud and happy.Mike shook his head, making the Scotts even more despondent.
'Are the Trumans destined for downfall?'What should I do?'Please enlighten me, ancestors,' Robert thought.At that moment, a shadow appeared."Master, I've found something major!" Nightfall, who had followed Robert for years, was unusually excited."What makes you so excited?""I found the first young master's son.""Are you sure?" Robert's expression shifted dramatically."Absolutely. The orphanage burned down in a fire back then, and he survived by sheer luck.""How is he now? What's his name? Where is he?" Robert knew about the orphanage incident, but he never further investigated."His name is Henry Truman, and he's living in Hodbridge. He's currently with Lydia Miller in Eastonia. He's a good person," Nightfall responded.He confirmed that Harry from the orphanage was Albert's son and was renamed Henry.Other than that, he did not delve into more details about Henry and Lydia's relationship."Good, very good!" Robert was overjoyed."But why does this name sound fam
