Chapter 2395
“Oh, I assure you that you’ re wide awake. Jokes aside, though I’ve healed most of your injuries, you
still need more rest to fully recover! Regardless, how did you end up in such a state, Harper..?” asked
Gerald.
“It’s… A long story. Basically, after you brought me into the Mayberry Organization, Young Master
Mateo, Zack’s son-, valued me so much that be promoted me almost monthly! With that said, the
highest position I ever received was general manager of Mayberry Commercial Street! Along the line, I
eventually got myself a girlfriend named Yasmin Lamer…”
After a brief pause, Harper cleared his throat before adding, “Sadly, I was stupid enough to believe that
she truly loved me… Despite loving her with all my heart, everything started to crumble when the
Morningstar family came along… For one, Young Master Lyle’s wife, Stephanie, quickly defected to the
Morningstar family, and she even assassinated Young Master Lyle! I knew that the Morningstars did
this to seize themercial street, and at the time, I had no idea when they’de for me next. With
that in mind, I handed all the official seals and important documents of themercial street along with
my properties to Yasmin…”
“Sadly, by the time I was eventually framed by the Morningstars, themercial street was already
gone. You see, when I reunited with Yasmin to reobtain some of the documents and properties, she
simply sent someone to chase me away! As it turned out, she was just as snobbish as Stephanie! As if
that wasn’t already enough, once she knew that I couldn’t be a backer, she quickly defected to an
executive of the Morningstar family and even gave away my properties! But she wasn’t satisfied with
that, oh no… Even after I lost everything, she hired some men to break my legs before turning me into
a ve of the Morningstar family…!” concluded Harper, his voice filled with remorse as he clenched his
fists.
“So that much has happened…” muttered Gerald with a nod.

“Indeed… The Morningstars are simply too ambitious… You know, their first feat was oppressing the
Caffin Group, which led to them bing the biggest family in the nation. As if that wasn’t already bad
enough, they’re now trying to devour all our assets! Their immense greed has truly brought endless
suffering!” grumbled Harper.
“I’m aware. Now tell me… Do you wish for revenge?” asked Gerald as he patted Harper’s shoulder.
“Revenge? I’d love to, but… The Morningstars aren’t exactly normal people… They’re far too strong…!”
muttered Harper in a helpless tone.
“Don’t worry, just let me take care of them. Speaking of which, what was the position of Zack’s son?”
asked Gerald.
“The General Manager of Mayberry,” said Harper.
“I see… Well, I’ll be reiming everything that our family has lost before sunset!” dered Gerald.
Meanwhile, there was an uproar in the Morningstar family’s manor within Mayberry City. With how
tragically Ian was killed off at the auction, Jaxen was on the verge of insanity. After all, Ian was his
youngest and most beloved child…! Even so, his hatred overpowered his grief the longer he stared at
his son’s beheaded body…!
ring at the guards, he then growled, “Who did this?”
“G-Gerald Crawford!” replied the guards.
All of them were advanced fighters who had learned how to manipte their essential qi, resulting in
them usually having a strong aura around them. However, at the mention of Gerald, they all looked
absolutely terrified to the point where they were hesitant to even say his name.
Tears running down his cheeks, Jaxen then slowly got to his feet. cing his hands against his back as
he red at the guards, Jaxon then growled, “Ian is dead… And so is the butler. So why are all of you,
individuals who’ve received special training from the Morningstar family, still alive…?”
Upon hearing that, the guards instantly fell to their knees while pleading, “P-please spare us,
Patriarch…! Gerald was simply too strong…! We couldn’t even get near him… !”
Following that, an awkward silence ensued…
