The moment Stanislaus Potter took the photo, the elder of the Leopold family felt his heart trembling in disarray.
Although he didnât know whether Atlas Leopold had done this, judging from the video and the voices alone, he believed it was real.
Atlas Leopold had a very high authority within the Leopold family, and often, the Leopold family members would let him do whatever he wanted.
Even if he messed up something, the family would step in to resolve it.
It was precisely because of this that Atlas Leopoldâs abilities became so strong, and he was hailed as the helmsman of the Leopold familyâs resurgence.
Being granted such honor at such a young age, it was clear how deep and sophisticated his strategies were.
Not just him, the other bigwigs also turned their attention to Stanislaus Potter.
The fact that the chairman of Golden Eagle Group had openly turned against the Leopold family had already caught them off guard.
The decisions Stanislaus Potter would make next would surely affect the power dynamics of Five-river Province.
But the more they watched, the more worried they became.
Because Stanislaus Potter was examining the photo carefully, looking very serious.
And his expression was growing angry.
Clearly, the contents of the photo had caught his attention, and they made him lose his temper.
Considering the previous video, these people suspected the photo targeted the
Leopold family as well.
Smack!
Sure enough. after Stanislaus Potter slapped the photo onto the table. he
looked coldly at the Leopold family elder, âTake a look for yourself!â
After saying this, he turned his head to look at Julius Reed, âOne matter at a time, our score isnât settled so simply!â
âHappy to oblige!â
Julius Reed smiled faintly, not minding Stanislaus Potterâs attitude in the least.
Just as the photo was laid on the table, before the Leopold family elder had a
chance to look at it, the other bigwigs of Five-river Province hurried over to see for themselves.
The content was simple; it was a surveillance angle from an ocean theme park.
Within the red circle marked on the photo, Atlas Leopold was wearing sunglasses, laughing and chatting with the employeesâ bodyguards.
The subsequent photos were all similar scenes, only the movements of the people kept changing.
The later photos even captured Quamaine Potter being beaten not far away.
Now with the evidence irrefutable, the Leopold family had no chance to deny it even if they wanted to.
âExplain!â
Stanislaus Potter leaned back in his chair, crossing his legs.
As chairman of the gigantic Golden Eagle Group, what storms hadnât he seen? Now that things had come to light, he appeared especially composed.
âI had no knowledge of this!â
The complexion of the Leopold family elder changed unpredictably, and he began to panic inside.
Now he was convinced that Atlas Leopold had indeed done such things.
But with the young master of the Leopold family lying on a sickbed, how could he possibly go back and question him?
âYou didnât know? Then bring someone who does!â
Stanislaus Potter roared, pointing at the head of the Leopold family elder, âTake him away! Anyone who dares to resist, kill without mercy!â
âYes!â
A burly man walked over to the side of the Leopold family elder.
âMy apologies!â
Stanislaus Potter was not afraid to take drastic measures; his son was beaten to such a state, he was willing to pay any price!
But the Leopold family dared not; if Stanislaus Potter died here today, everyone involved would not be able to escape the consequences.
The bigwigs attending the meeting would inevitably be implicated, and the whole Five-river Province would then fall into a dilemma.
Moreover, it was clear that the Leopold family was at fault in this matter. âIn this matter, I think the Leopold family needs to give an explanation.â âWe can understand Mr. Potterâs feelings.â
Suddenly, the bigwigs of Five-river Province were voicing their opinions one after another, and their comments heavily favored Stanislaus Potter.
The Leopold family was at fault to begin with, and they didnât want to get dragged in. Otherwise, they might not get a piece of the cake and instead attract a lot of trouble for themselves.
âFine!â
The Leopold family elder sighed and said aloud, âNo one resist!â
The bodyguards exchanged glances.
âSend someone to the Leopold family with the photos and video, have them give me an explanation! If thereâs no news within a day, Golden Eagle Group doesnât mind going down with them!â
Stanislaus Potter flicked his finger, then looked at Julius Reed, âNow, itâs our turn to settle accounts!â
As he spoke,
Smack!
âYouâ¦â
âProtect the boss!â
As Stanislaus Potter stood dumbfounded, the bodyguards quickly reacted and surrounded Julius Reed.
It seemed they would pounce the moment he made a move.
âIf you dare lay a hand on me, donât expect to leave here alive.â Stanislaus Potter let out a cold laugh, quickly suppressing his shock.
âWhat? Want to test me?â
He didnât believe anyone was unafraid of death.
Could a person even be called human if they had no fear?
But he was wrong.
Julius Reedâs elbow slammed hard into his head.
âWhat I dislike the most, is being threatened!â
âYou dare!â
Stanislaus Potter clutched his head, from which blood was now flowing freely.
âI warn you, if you dare touch our boss again, youâll be buried here!â The bodyguard roared angrily.
If it werenât for Miguel Abbott standing beside them, the bodyguards would have lunged without hesitation.
But as it stood, Mr. Abbott, the chairman of Moonlight Group, was present, and they still harbored some reservations.
In terms of status, Miguel Abbott was no less prestigious than anyone present.
âIs that so!â
Julius Reed turned around and looked at the bodyguard, replying with a faint smile, âWhat I find most obnoxious is being threatened.â Miguel Abbott unbuttoned his jacket and slowly stood up!
Hiss!
The crowd sucked in a breath of cold air.
âMr. Abbott, what are you doing!â âPlease, sit down! Letâs talk this out calmly!â
They were sweating cold beads of fear.
Attached to Mr. Abbottâs body was a string of poison gas packets.
As people who owned tens or hundreds of billions, they naturally cherished their lives.
âLetâs talk this out!â
Maurice Yarrow mentally cursed continuously.
Bridger Davenport had told him not to come, but he insisted on coming.
And now, well, he was terribly unlucky.
Even Stanislaus Potter seemed somewhat bewildered.
He swallowed and took a deep breath, âMr. Abbott, have you gone mad?â
Miguel Abbott was just like them, a long-established bigwig. What could have driven him to such extremes?
Even if he truly wanted to arm someone, why not strap it to one of his bodyguards?
Why did he take the field himself?
âHeh! I have gone mad!â
Miguel Abbott chuckled softly and snapped his fingers.
In an instant, his bodyguards behind him began to open their jackets.
On those bodyguardsâ bodies, poison gas packets were strapped all over.
âToday, I just want to ask, does anyone have the courage to join me on the journey?
Miguel Abbott looked around the room as everyone fell silent.
âIf you donât have the guts! Then Iâm sorry, today Iâll be the host!â
Miguel Abbott put his clothes back on and looked at Julius Reed, âBrother Reed, you may speak now..â
