Chapter 232
At this moment. Brody looked a little scary. However, Gavin could probably extract more usefulness out of a person who could go
crazy like this.
Therefore, with that thought in mind, Gavin looked at Brody and said indifferently, “Brody.”
Brody’s glazed pupils regained their light when he heard Gavin call out to him.
He slowly turned his body stiffly in Gavin’s direction.
His face instantly became flushed with excitement.
He crawled up toward Gavin and wiped the tears and snot off his face. Then, he knelt in front of Gavin once again.
This time, he raised his head high and kowtowed to Gavin.
“Your Grace!”
He greeted Gavin with extreme sincerity.
Gavin looked at Brody kneeling in front of him and said indifferently again, “From now on, you are the master of the Hill family.”
Brody’s body, which was sprawled on the ground, shook violently when he heard this.
The shaking stopped for a brief moment, then his body began to tremble again.
Then, Gavin heard Brody say with a sob in his voice, “Thank you, Your Grace! Thank you, Your Grace!”
What was there to thank Gavin for?
Brody might have become the head of the Hill family, and no one in the Hill family would dare to look down on him anymore, but
he was the only person left in the Hill family.
Gavin said to Brody again, “Do you want the bodies of the members of the Hill family back?”
Brody’s body trembled again when he heard Gavin’s question. Then, he replied loudly, “Your Grace, they are not from the Hill
family!”
Gavin thought, ‘Well... It looks like Brody can already go this far
Brody had already said that. What could Gavin say in reply to that?
All he did was raise his head slightly. He said again, “Alright then, go back to the Hill family. I believe that the Hill family will reach
a new height under your leadership.”
Gavin had given Brody extreme praise.
A person like Brody would not mind handing his life over to Gavin after hearing such praise.
Brody’s eyes were filled with tears.
He looked up at Gavin deeply and kowtowed to him again.
He roared, “Thank you, Your Grace! I, Brody Hill, will never disappoint you!” Gavin did not have much hope for him.
After all, Brody was the only person left in the Hill family.
Of course, a family as large as the Hill family still had some assets in Greenwald. However, could Brody take over and manage
those assets alone?
Gavin did not care at all.
After all, Brody was just a tool to him.
However, the current Gavin did not know that Brody would give him a huge surprise in the future.
Gavin left with the Frostpeak Dark Warriors and the members of Rosebud. They returned to the Tenny family.
At this moment, the Moore family was engulfed in flames.
Within a day, something strange had happened to three of the major families in Greenwald at the same time.
A terrible fire had ravaged the Henderson family and the Moore family.
None of the people from these two families managed to walk out alive.
In other words, the Henderson family and the Moore family had been completely annihilated.
Meanwhile, even though there was no terrible fire at the last of Greenwald’s major families, the Hill family, their residence
seemed very deserted with not a person
to be seen.
Passers-by could only hear the sound of a young man crying and laughing from time to time. It was very terrifying.
The National Security Bureau of Greenwald also responded immediately.
However, Greenwald’s Warrior Surveillance Bureau seemed to have obtained some news in advance and stopped the National
Security Bureau from investigating the matter.
They told the National Security Bureau to not interfere during this time, not matter what happened in Greenwald.
The atmosphere in Greenwald was very strange.
Three of the four major families in Greenwald had undergone major changes. These three families controlled a significant portion
of Greenwald’s complicated. underground forces.
Now that these underground forces had lost their masters, chaos would follow. Yet, at this moment, the National Security Bureau
of Greenwald chose to do
nothing.
Therefore, everyone in Greenwald felt that Greenwald was going to descend into chaos.
A sense of impending doom filled the hearts of all the citizens of Greenwald. At this moment, in the Tenny family, Muriel seemed
to be in a hurry.
It was already nighttime, yet Muriel was fully dressed and going to the company. She reminded her daughter, Sally, before
leaving the Tenny family, “As the host, you have to remember to bring Gavin and Conor around Greenwald. Show them what’s
fun around these parts and let them admire Greenwald’s nighttime scenery.”
Sally liked being close to Gavin, so she happily accepted the instructions.
It was also because of this that Gavin, who had been killing people the entire day, followed Sally around the streets of Greenwald
at night with Kris.
Kris was admiring the scenery around Greenwald when she asked Sally curiously, “Sally, is your mother alright? She seems to
have something important to do. Is there a problem with the company?”
Kris was just asking out of courtesy. After all, Kris wouldn’t be able to be of much help now even if something really happened to
the Tenny family’s business.
On the other hand, Sally was rather nonchalant and said casually, “It’s nothing. The Henderson family and the Moore family are
gone, but they still have rather substantial assets in Greenwald.
“Previously, my mother was in Stanlow when the Mason family perished in Greenwald. She hadn’t cared about Greenwald,
which made it so Joshua Bailey, the richest man in Greenwald, could take over the businesses.
“My mother has been talking about this ever since she came back. My mother wouldn’t let the opportunity to take over the
businesses of the Henderson family and the Moore family go now that it is here.”
A smile appeared in Gavin’s eyes when he heard what Sally said.
He thought, ‘Joshua sure is quite shrewd and well-informed. I had just destroyed the Mason family, but he managed to take over
the Mason family’s businesses so quickly? He didn’t even give the Tenny family any scraps.’
This time, Joshua would also compete with the Tenny family and try to take over the businesses of the Henderson family and the
Moore family.
However, Gavin did not intend to interfere. After all, this matter had nothing to do with him.
Moreover, the competition between Muriel and Joshua was good for their development.
Of course, Sally did not know about the relationship between Gavin and Joshua. She seemed to have thought of something and
turned around to ask, “Gavin, Kris,
it’s already dinner time. Are you hungry?”
Kris looked at Gavin and reached out to touch her stomach. She nodded with a smile and answered, “Now that you said it, I’m
quite hungry.”
Hearing Kris’s answer, Sally said excitedly, “Kris, I know of a restaurant in
Greenwald. Both the atmosphere and food there are not bad. Let me bring you guys there!”
After saying that, she called her driver and brought Gavin and Kris to a restaurant called “Grande Palatia”.
The restaurant was rather small, about the size of a hall. There were only 8 or 9 tables inside.
However, the lights and various decorations inside made it feel very comfortable. The melodious music that was playing from the
speakers made the environment really refreshing for the diners.
However, Gavin raised his eyebrows slightly the moment he entered the
restaurant.
He seemed to have discovered something amiss.
There were only two empty tables in the restaurant. The remaining seats were filled with guests.
However, these guests did not look like good people.
Moreover, these patrons were already a little drunk.
Most importantly, Gavin discovered that the waiters in this restaurant were just standing obediently behind the counter.
Their bodies were trembling slightly, and their eyes were filled with fear and, of course, disgust.
Gavin noticed something amiss because of how these waiters were acting.
