Chapter 2123
“You didn’t eat any?!”Trisha was astonished, but quickly regained her composure.“That’s fine too. Since you’re not crippled, I’ll do the honor of chopping your hands and feet with my own hands. The effect will be the same regardless.”Jaden smiled lightly. “I’m afraid getting my hands and feet won’t be as easy as you think.”“Let’s see. Do you think the gunmen you’re relying so heavily on are as obedient as you think?”So saying, Jaden snapped his fingers. As the crisp sound of his snapping fingers rang, the gunmen initially under Alec’s employ, who had aimed their firearms at the crowd, turned to aim at Trisha. In just one move, Trisha’s escape routes were all blocked. She had no way out.Trisha was shocked, and her expression turned for the worst. A moment of contemplation later, she sneered icily, “Nice one, Jaden! Great work, Terry!”“I didn’t expect you to join forces with your son and deceive me.”Jaden smiled, unperturbed. “I did set you up. The same can’t be said abou

Terry’s face changed suddenly and he shouted, “Old man, you’re shameless!”Trisha’s complexion changed as well. Her face, which was initially bitingly cold, turned pale.A wiser person could sense something was wrong based on the reactions of these two people.Jaden laughed. “There’s no point in arguing with me.”“Trisha. Your so-called revenge this time is not because of your hatred from twenty years ago, right?”“You’re actually here for this young man, right?”Listening to Jaden’s trivial words, Harvey and the rest understood.From the beginning to end, Jaden Smith was in control of everything.Whether it was the catastrophe faced by the Smith family, their life or death, as well as all of Terry’s previous actions…Everything was under Jaden’s control.Harvey himself was beginning to genuinely fear Jaden.Indeed, this old man deserved being the head of the top ten families.Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to fathom this old scamp’s thoughts and scheming.Trisha’s expre

“Trisha!”“No!”Terry was overwhelmed with shock and horror. He rushed out of his captors’ grasp like a madman, pouncing on Trisha’s still warm corpse. Jaden was faster and took a step forward before Terry could reach Trisha. With a loud bang, Jaden kicked Terry and trampled Terry on the ground under his foot, preventing Terry from moving. Everyone gasped, stunned. They expected Trisha would kill Jaden, but none of them imagined the opposite would happen. As it turned out, Jaden ended up killing the master assassin Trisha Cloude. He even followed up his actions by trampling his own son, Terry, with his foot.He was certainly a dark horse!His actions weren’t anything ordinary people could do.Harvey looked amused. This is the level of God of War!The head of the Smith family, Jaden Smith, was truly a master of the level of God of War.It seemed that Harvey had truly underestimated these top families.Benjamin, Chief Leonard Bray, and everyone else were astonished.
Chapter 2126
The crowd was shocked and dumbfounded.However, Harvey nonchalantly returned to his seat and continued eating indifferently.When he faced Grandma York, Melissa Leo before, he knew first hand how terrifying the heads of top families can be. But at the end of the day, the Yorks were simply an ordinary top family.They cannot compare to the Smiths, who were one of the top ten families. If Jaden weren’t competent, the Smiths would’ve long been devoured by their opponents. Jaden didn’t put on airs even after he had settled the messy conflict moments ago. Instead, he simply returned to the seat that originally belonged to him.After a few drinks, the banquet came to an end. Harvey was about to leave, but Jaden requested him to stay.Everyone else could see that Jaden had something to say to Harvey, Thus, they all left one by one.Jaden made a “please” gesture before Harvey could speak, and invited Harvey to follow him outside of the hall.A beautiful garden greeted Harvey’s sight

“The eldest son is devoted to the government and wants to use the government’s influence to protect the Smith family.”“The second son, unfortunately, is completely useless.”“The current Smith family looks the same right now, but what about ten years later?”Jaden sighed.Harvey suggested with a smile, “I think Lady Smith is a good choice. It’s possible for her to succeed the Smith family.”Jaden replied indifferently, “Yes, she’s quite good. I also think highly of Yvonne.”“Unfortunately, my optimism for them isn’t shared by other members of the family. They might not think highly of them, as I do.” “If there isn’t a man to support our huge family business, I’m afraid I won’t be at ease even after I die.”“Thus, Harvey, just like what I told you in the banquet before…”“I hold you in high esteem. If you’re willing to be the Smiths’ son-in-law…”“I can guarantee that everything you see now will be yours in ten years.”“You’ll be one of the top big shots in the great Countr

Once Harvey signed the agreement, he would acquire the right to speak in Smith Corporation. From another point of view, it was equivalent to officially setting foot in Mordu’s elite circles.However, Harvey shook his head and said, “No thank you, Senior Smith. I can’t accept something like this. Ten percent shares of Smith Corporation are incredibly valuable.”“Anyway, I didn’t help much even when I showed up at the banquet.”“So, I can’t take it.”The shares were worth a lot of money, but as Harvey couldn’t see through this cunning old man’s mind, he was naturally disinclined to accept it.“Why not?”Jaden smiled lightly.“Aren’t you here to help the Smith family? Isn’t that one of the reasons you came to Mordu?”“Had it not been for you confronting Hector several times, which greatly damaged the Shindan Way and whittled his strength, those pests would certainly appear tonight.”“Had you not taken the initiative to anger my unfilial son Terry, he wouldn’t have suffered such h

Harvey stared at the name on the phone. Lilian Yates.He was rendered speechless. He did receive a message from Mandy a few days ago, saying that both Simon and Lilian would come to Mordu ahead of schedule. However, he was so preoccupied that the matter slipped out of his mind. Harvey gave Jaden a polite goodbye, took the agreement, and left as soon as humanly possible.Jaden watched Harvey’s retreating back with a thoughtful expression.After a long time, the butler appeared. He also stared after Harvey as Harvey left. “Master, is this guy really worth investing in?”“What you’ve given him is ten percent shares of Smith Corporation, which costs billions of revenues a year…”Jaden smiled meaningfully and replied, “Have you forgotten? The Smith family started out by investing.”“I think this investment is worth it.”***Half an hour later, at the VIP passage at the Mordu International Airport…A woman clad in mink despite the hot weather stood. She exuded the arrogant tempera

Xynthia looked at her mother’s arrogant and domineering attitude, and felt an impending headache.Ever since her older sister grew in power, her mother had become more and more arrogant.In Buckwood, Lilian was quite bearable. Now, however, she had returned to her unpleasant self as in Niumhi before. Simon himself was rather frightened of Lilian’s overbearing attitude. He wanted to coax her and say something, but was too cowardly to say a word edgewise. As Lilian was busy cursing, a Toyota Alphard parked in front of them. Harvey stepped out of the car.He had borrowed it from Yvonne, as he couldn’t find a suitable car so suddenly.Lilian scrutinized Harvey with a critical eye. Seeing him clad in run-of-the-mill sportswear, she was unable to conceal the disgust in her eyes. She glared at Harvey with narrowed eyes and snarled pompously, “Harvey! Do you think you can do whatever you want after flying to Mordu for a couple of days?” “You dare make me wait for you here for an
