Chapter 901: Chapter 906

Jet’s gaze tuned frigid as he asserted Itis dominance, compelling Shane to relinquish his position.

Not only him, but all the elders on Jett and Scarborough’s side glared at the chief with an overwhelming and chilling, gaze Scarborough, meanwhile, held his phone, ready to give the order for slaughter at any moment.

Watching them, Shane let out a deep sigh. “Fine, I’ll step down.”

After saying these words, he appeared to have aged twenty years in an instant, carrying an air of weariness.

Jell’s expression grew even more triumphant as he extended a share transfer agreement to Shane.

“Sign it”

Gritting his teeth, the chief had no choice but to pick up the pen and sign away his shares, granting Jeff complete control over the family.

With the signed and sealed agreement in his possession, Jeff’s eyes filled with wild joy. “Hahaha!”

With this share, he would become the holder of the highest stake in the family enterprise, granting him the ultimate authority.

Moreover, he had also gathered numerous nifty experts by his side, ensuring his dominance in both financial power and combat prowess. In other words, he stood invincible.

After signing, Shane stared at Jeff and Scarborough. “Now, can you release our family?”

“Good call.”

Scarborough sneered, then dialed a number on his phone, and said, “Have them release everyone.”

After hanging up the phone, he stared at Shane coldly. “You no longer hold any shares in our family group. I declare that you and your allies have been expelled from the Bernard family. Now, the family doesn’t need cowards like you. Get out of here!”

Jell nodded in agreement and spoke in a deep voice, “Shane, we were once a family, so I won’t sever ties completely. I will buy your shares at a price below market value.”

After saying this, he proceeded to transfer the funds.

Shane quickly received the transfer record, and his eyes dimmed even more.

It was 400 thousand dollars!

Meanwhile, the Bernard family was a multinational conglomerate with a minimum liquid capital of 600 million dollars. Their assets amounted to trillions of dollars.

The value of his shares alone was worth at least two billion dollars!

And yet, Jeff only gave him 400 thousand dollars, which was a blatant humiliation.

Jeff smirked, waving his hand dismissively. “Alright, Shane, my friend, you may leave now.”

With a cold gaze, the former chief put away his phone and spoke in a solemn voice, “Shadow Knight is not an organization to be taken lightly. I hope you won’t lead the Bernard family to extinction.”

After making sure of his family’s whereabouts over the phone, he immediately left the scene.

The people who had followed him looked at each other, then promptly followed his departure.

Not long after, the ancient castle became relatively quieter.

Scarborough walked up and sat in the seat previously occupied by Shane. He crossed his legs and rested them on the table. reflecting, “So, this is what it feels like to be the chief?”

He had longed to sit in this position for a while.

However, neither his experience nor his status warranted it.

With Shane’s departure, his father had ascended to the role of chief, granting him the long–awaited opportunity to occupy such a position and truly immerse himself in the sensation of wielding power.

Jell glared at him, saying, “Are you worthy of taking this position? Get up!”

He dared not defy his father and promptly stood up.

Jeff took a seat in the chair, relishing the feeling of holding significant power. At that moment, his vanity swelled to its peak.

Scarborough glanced at him a hint of coldness in his eyes, but quickly regained composure and asked in a low voice, “Dad, what should we do next? We’re not really going to uphold our promise and hand over forty percent of the Bernard family’s assets to Radiant Society, are we?”

In order to deal with Shane’s forces, they had even resorted to cooperating with some of Radiant Society’s demonic gods and agreed to many of their conditions.

Now that they had successfully usurped power and held absolute control, everything within the Bernard family belonged to them.

Forty percent of the assets was not a small amount.

Jeff’s gaze became incredibly cold. “We only cooperated with them to leverage their power to deal with Shane. They’d be foolish if they think they’ll get forty percent of the assets. Here’s what you’ll do: transfer one–tenth of the assets to them first, call it a down payment, and deliver the rest gradually.”

Scarborough’s eyes brightened with delight. “That’s a clever approach. But will they accept it?”

“They’ll have to accept it, even if they don’t want to.”

Jeff smirked, his gaze sinister and his voice cold. “Now, go spread rumors immediately, claiming that Radiant Society is planning an attack on Shadow Knight.”

Scarborough’s eyes lit up.

After all, once such rumors were successfully spread, Shadow Knight’s attention would undoubtedly shift from the Bernard family to Radiant Society.

At that time, both organizations would definitely suffer heavy losses.

In any case, the Bernard family would benefit from it.

As long as Shadow Knight’s aircraft carrier was under attack, his family would have an opportunity to infiltrate it and retaliate against Reign and Haylan.

Scarborough was filled with exhilaration. He gave his father a thumbs–up, praising him repeatedly, and then went ahead to make arrangements.

At this moment, an elder walked up and said worriedly, “Chief, I still feel somewhat uneasy. Will Shadow Knight really Jeff sneered, his gaze filled with disdain. “Although Shadow Knight is formidable, we are at Whileal Kingdom, and we are the high–ranking members of this place.

There’s an old saying in Longhard Kingdom that goes The law does not hold the masses accountable. When they threaten so many people and families, making a lot of noise about fighting and killing, it’s definitely just empty bravado. No need to worry about it.

He then added, “Your most important task now is to uproot every member of Shane’s faction and drive them all out of the Bernard family’s stronghold. Also, ensure that the secret weapons the family has developed over the years are ready. When Radiant Society and Shadow Knight clash, we will seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Shadow Knight’s fleet and eliminate Haylan and Reign in one fell swoop, avenging my son!”

The elder frowned slightly, but he still nodded and went to make arrangements. In just over two hours, all of Shane’s former subordinates had been removed.

Only Jeff’s people remained within the Bernard family.

Meanwhile, thousands of fully armed soldiers assembled.

Jeff and Scarborough stood side by side, their eyes fixed upon the warriors before them. Each warrior bore hidden weapons upon their backs, exuding an air of chilling menace through their piercing gazes.

Scarborough glanced at his watch, a look of disdain and a cold smile crossing his face. He said, “It has been three hours already. Well, Shadow Knight was just bluffing. Talking about wiping out our family? Ridiculous”

Jeff remained expressionless and said coldly, “Scarborough, take these people to Canara City. Fake an apology and find an opportunity to blow up that aircraft carrier! I will let the whole world know that anyone who kills a Bernard must die!”

Just as the father and son were full of ambition, determined to fight the mercenary group to the end, suddenly, sparks fell from the sky like meteors, rushing toward them.

These clusters of sparks shimmered distinctly in the darkness before dawn.

“Chief, look! What is that?” the elder said in a deep voice.

Jeff and Scarborough looked up.
