Chapter 1039 – The Revercrest Patriarch’s Confusion
*****The wealthy man paused just long enough for silence to consume everything. Then…“For nearly a century now,” he continued calmly, his tone still unnervingly light and flat, “the organization has supported your family.”His words were slow and deliberate, each word landing like a measured step toward a grave.“We empowered your family and shielded it, supplying it with priceless resources, information, influence, and everything you ever needed to rise… and to remain untouchable.”His voice neither rose nor fell. In fact, there was no emphasis or accusation.However, that made it worse. The more he spoke, the more the four men trembled.Their fear didn’t spike… it accumulated, stacking layer upon layer until breathing itself felt dangerous for them.“But despite all this,” the wealthy man continued, “the organization never interfered in anything concerning your family.”This time, his tone finally shifted.It was only slightly. However, that slight change instantly made
Chapter 1038 – The Disordered Brothers
*****At this moment, the wealthy man had completely discarded the harmless, gentle, and casual façade he usually wears in public… the warm smiles, polite manners, and “reasonable businessman” act.What remained was his true nature… vicious, dark, absolute, and merciless.He sat there without moving, his posture relaxed, with one arm resting against the chair as though this wasn’t a moment of life and death but an afternoon inconvenience.His face was utterly blank… so blank that it was terrifying. There was no trace of anger, no satisfaction, and not even boredom on his face. It was just empty, and somehow… this absence of emotion was far more frightening than rage. The kneeling men felt it too, the silence pressing down on them like an invisible blade, each second stretching painfully long.Finally…“Master, please… please give us a second chance!!!”The Rivercrest Patriarch’s voice cracked as he cried out, his pride dissolving completely. “Please, Master! Give us a sec
Chapter 1037 – An Obsequious Revercrest Family
*****Inside an exclusive, obscenely luxurious presidential suite... one that didn’t merely suggest wealth but screamed it.The marble floors gleamed like mirrors underneath the glowing chandeliers, while the walls were draped in fabrics imported from places normal people only saw on postcards, and the entire furniture was handcrafted from rare, overtly expensive gold-wood.However, currently at the center of this room, four figures knelt on the ground, shaking uncontrollably before a red royal chair.And these four people… they were far from being insignificant. Certainly not disposable pawns or background figures meant to be ignored.No.In fact, if anyone in Riverton City were to walk into this room right now and see this scene, their mind would reject it on instinct, their eyes would deny it, and their brain would short-circuit, desperately trying to wake them from what had to be nothing but a dream. And why?These four were among the most feared, respected, and untouchable
Chapter 1036 – The Right-hand Man’s Wake Up Call
*****For a split second, the OSD genuinely didn’t know whether to laugh hysterically or break down and scream, the absurdity of what was currently going on lodging itself in her chest like a splinter.“So this is how it is now?” she sneered, her lips curling as her rage boiled dangerously close to the surface. “We are all going to push the blame on me now, are we?” Her laugh came sharp and humorless. “Amazing! This is truly inspiring teamwork!!”Her voice rose, brimming with the emotions she had not even the slightest intention of hiding.“When I suggested that the Prime Minister might have been controlled by… unconventional means, why didn’t a single one of you refute it?” Her finger jabbed the air with every word. “Not one. When I said I knew someone who might understand what was happening and have a solution for it, why did you all follow me like obedient little ducks?”Her breathing grew uneven, fury rolling off her in waves. “Why didn’t you reject my idea then?” she demande
Chapter 1035 – The Blaming Game
*****Of course, the Prime Minister knew exactly why he had completely forgotten about the wealthy man, and the reason.And the reason was as simple as simplicity could get.No matter how influential and powerful the man was, and no matter how world-shaking his Project would have been for Riverton… none of it amounted to even one percent of the importance of attending to Xavier.That was the cold, undeniable truth.In fact, if fate rewound itself and the same situation were to happen again… the Prime Minister would still undo exactly what he had done without hesitation, doubt, or even the faintest trace of regret.However…That didn’t mean responsibility could be abandoned.No matter what, power came with consequences, and even choices made without remorse still required correction.So…Once the storm in the old man’s chest settled and his breathing returned to normal, the Prime Minister lifted his gaze and calmly asked, “Where is he now?”The sudden calmness in his voice m
Chapter 1034 – The Prime Minister’s Relief
*****Of course, the Prime Minister noticed every tremor, every bead of sweat, and every shallow, panicked breath of the five aides.But he doesn’t feel satisfied… not even the slightest bit.And why would he be?He five hadn’t merely intentionally misunderstood a situation; they had even accused the Erudite Grandmaster of being a Black Voodoo user, controlling him with black voodoo.Dang it.They had even mobilized armed men… trained killers to come deal with him, and probably even execute him.The mere thought made the Prime Minister feel a chill race down his spine, his heart skipping violently in his chest, especially knowing well that this particular conversation wouldn’t even be happening if they had actually met Xavier.Even if he personally wouldn’t allow a single weapon to be raised, what about the sheer insult, humiliation, and casual disregard?The Prime Minister’s soul nearly leapt out of his body in terror.For the first time since Xavier left, he felt genuine,
