Eric maintained a positive relationship with the McClains and Watsons, but he had no interactions with the Larsons and the other prominent family."Are we dealing with the Larsons, a top-tier prominent family?" Sylvia's expression turned serious, reflecting her concern. Despite the power of the Hernandez and Montgomery families, they were no match for top-tier prominent families.The thought of facing such a formidable force made Sylvia uneasy. Their reliance for progress now rested on Pierce.Upon learning of Eric and Sylvia's arrival in King City, Grace invited them to dinner, even bringing along their assistant. It was then that Mell realized Eric's influential background.During the meal, Grace inquired about the situation. Discovering the Larsons' potential involvement behind the scenes raised her concerns. While families of the same level might show some restraint, the Larsons were unfamiliar territory for Grace."Don't worry. If I can't handle this, then I will have been li
Next morning, Eric had Sylvia prepare relevant information about the Innova Group, and then they went to find Jimmy Larson."Have you found a solution? It won't be a wasted trip, right?" Sylvia asked.Eric smiled. "Let's go take a look first."Vince and Matthew also followed the three of them.-Soon, they arrived at the relevant department. It was empty, and the receptionist was leisurely playing with his phone, doing nothing.Eric and Sylvia approached. "Hello, we'd like to see Mr. Larson, we have—"Before they could finish speaking, the receptionist didn't even look at them and said impatiently, "Mr. Larson is not here. Come back tomorrow!""Is Mr. Larson really not here?" Eric asked.The receptionist glanced at Eric. "Can't you understand human language?"Eric touched his nose. This receptionist was very arrogant. He pulled Sylvia away, not bothering with the receptionist. After all, he was just a minor character following orders.After leaving, Vince asked, "Sir, he's s
Stroking his chin, Jimmy wore a mocking expression."Well, I might make an exception if you compensate me for a new car and let this woman accompany me." He pointed at Sylvia. "Serve me properly, and I'll let the Innova Group pass!"Before Eric could respond, Vince grabbed Jimmy by the neck and lifted him up like a chick. "Mr. Larson, is this what you're supposed to do in this position?!"Jimmy was too frightened to utter a word. He could tell that these people were ruthless!Eric remained silent as they walked toward the office building. The receptionist had witnessed everything and was now trembling in fear. He had been bold only because Jimmy backed him. Now that Jimmy was restrained, what else could he say?Soon, they arrived at Jimmy's office.Eric gestured for Vince to release Jimmy and said, "Mr. Larson, shall we start working?""Hmph!" Jimmy turned his head away. "You audacious bunch! You will eventually pay the price! The Innova Group is finished!""Keep an eye on him,
A dozen or so burly men crowded Jimmy's office, with a few more lingering outside. Jimmy's reinforcements had arrived, but those behind him were still out of sight."Take them down for me! Break the limbs of the men and leave the women alone!" Jimmy shouted.The men surged toward Eric, Vince, and Matthew. Simultaneously, Vince and Matthew sprang into action.The sounds of fists striking and cries of pain reverberated in the office.Vince and Matthew showed no mercy, shattering the hands or legs of Jimmy's men. Even those who rushed in from outside were swiftly dealt with.In the blink of an eye, a dozen or so men lay defeated. The painful cries diminished as Vince and Matthew threw them out, closing the office door to restore some quiet."You... You... You're not from the Innova Group! The Innova Group doesn't have this kind of strength!" Jimmy stammered in fear.He had some insight after spending many years in King City and being part of the Larson family. The individuals he ha
How powerful could the Larson family become? Could they rival the Combat Department? Eric exuded absolute confidence. Even the formidable Crimson Order, boasting numerous grandmasters, had succumbed to the Combat Department's prowess.Eric's mission involved stirring up the major players in King City with this incident.Eric and Vince stood their ground.Jimmy sensed that he might not escape unscathed unless he contacted the person in charge today. With this realization, he dialed the number in front of Eric and Vince.On the phone, he portrayed himself as greatly wronged.After a brief pause, Matthew returned, subtly nodding at Eric to signal the safe delivery of Sylvia and Mell to the Montgomery family. The group waited in silence.Jimmy dared not speak harshly anymore. The men he had called earlier were still outside, groaning. Their painful cries were faintly audible, making him uneasy.After about half an hour, Jimmy's reinforcements arrived."Mr. Feynman!" Jimmy approac
The arrival of Hector further complicated matters, especially when Vince discreetly informed Eric that the Feynmans ranked among the top four elite families in King City. All four prominent families had emerged: the Watsons, McClains, Larsons, and Feynmans.While Eric had some knowledge about the McClains and Watsons, little was known about the Larsons and Feynmans.The involvement of these two elite families heightened the complexity and danger of the situation. What had begun as a simple targeted plan now entangled both elite families, a worrisome development.Even with only the Larsons involved, Eric might have maintained some confidence. However, the addition of the Feynmans, collaborating with the Visionary Group to establish a department, showcased their formidable influence.This department empowered the Visionary Group and the two elite families to suppress domestic companies effectively. Rising in this industry would prove challenging for any company.Eric grasped the sev
The Visionary Group, the Larsons, and even the Feynmans all sought to hinder the Innova Group through this department, potentially pushing it into bankruptcy. What if the people at the Innova Group seized control of this crucial department?Upon receiving the call, Ruth swiftly took action, and soon people gathered downstairs.Jimmy still gazed at his wrecked Mercedes, his heart heavy with sorrow."Quick! Move that car away! Clear the space immediately!" A voice commanded from behind.A tow truck entered, and Jimmy's Mercedes was hoisted onto the truck amid the rumbling sound."What's going on?" Jimmy finally came back to his senses. "Why are you towing my car? Who are you people?"He distinctly recalled not requesting a tow truck. He wouldn't allow the car to be towed away unless Eric compensated for the damages.A newcomer approached Jimmy. "Mr. Larson, right? From now on, you don't need to come to work. We are taking over this department!"Before Jimmy could respond, two imp
Eric was still in the office when a fierce battle erupted downstairs.Despite being outnumbered, the members of the Combat Department were seasoned fighters, having even slept in piles of corpses during their experiences. There was no need for Eric, Vince, or Matthew to intervene.In just over ten minutes, the incoming group was completely subdued.The leader from the Combat Department had a dark expression. "Lock them up! Interrogate them one by one and dig out the people behind them! Establish a special file! Incorporate all relevant information into the file!"The Combat Department never wasted words. Establishing a special file indicated that a special team had been formed to handle this matter. The Combat Department was determined to continue the investigation.As the Combat Department took the captured individuals away, Eric, Vince, and Matthew left and returned to the Montgomery family.-"I saw the announcement. You manage to control that department?" Sylvia was curious.
