Chapter 2957 After listening to Edwin Mendoza , Harvey York nodded lightly before looking at his documents again.
“So, what‘s up with this Joseph Bauer guy?”
After scrolling through the phone for a moment, Edwin then softly replied, “Joseph Bauer is the thirteenth descendant of the
Bauer family, one of the top ten families of Country H. Everyone calls him the Thirteenth Young Master Bauer.
“It‘s also said that he‘s one of the top candidates to become the head of his family.
“There are two other candidates besides him, the eldest young master, Jeff Bauer, and the seventh young master, Harold Bauer.”
Harvey frowned.
“That’s it?”
“Of course not. Throughout history, the head of the Bauer family always assumed another identity, the master of Longmen,”
replied Edwin.
“It‘s the same for this generation as well.
“Simply put, no matter who rises to power, other than becoming the head of the family, they‘ll also be sitting on
the Longmen‘s throne.
“That‘s why these young masters had constantly been fighting in Flutwell for this position for the past couple of years. “Jeff has
support from the Elder Group and the Law Enforcement of Longmen. It‘s said that half of Longmen‘s branch leaders are also
standing beside him.
“Of course, you‘re not included.”
“Harold, on the other hand, has the most support within the entire family. It‘s said that the old lady of the family‘s quite fond of
him too.
“Safe to say that these two people have both halves of Flutwell for themselves. It‘s hard to know who‘s going to win since they‘re
both on par with each other.”
Harvey frowned.

“What about Joseph? What gives him the right to rise to
power?”
“Business,” Edwin quietly replied. “You should know that Flutwell is a special place. It‘s located on high ground. It had been
extremely desolate in the past, and it only flourished after the founding of Country H.
“But even with the country‘s support, Flutwell‘s economy was still subpar. The place was focused on
tourism at that time.
“About six years ago, Joseph came out of nowhere and integrated most of Flutwell‘s medium and small–sized businesses to
form an alliance.
“With this alliance, Joseph dominated Flutwell‘s business as a whole.
“Then, Joseph’s alliance unintentionally struck a small gold mine, skyrocketing the alliance‘s strength in just a single night!
“And from that moment onward, the entirety of Flutwell was cheering for Joseph‘s rise to power. “With the support of small and
middle – sized families, Joseph was fully prepared to go against Jeff and Harold! “After all, anyone can buy talented people
under their belt with enough money. Naturally, Joseph was able to stand his ground in Flutwell...”
“What does all this have to do with me?”
Edwin bitterly chuckled.
“It‘s not significant, but yes, you‘re still involved.
“Joseph has always been an outcast. Even after his ascent, he still has no power to extend his reach outside Flutwell.
“That‘s why he‘s been trying to marry a woman from one of the top ten families.
“But because of his identity, many top–rated families declined him.
“Recently, he bumped into your wife. Madam Yates is also pretty fond of him...”
