Chapter 786 Top Three Family Heads Take A Stand

“The Lee and Vinland families must bring justice to the people of Lilyrose! We cannot let Kaze grow into a menace that will destroy us all!”

“That bastard impersonated the God of War multiple times yet he did not learn from his mistakes. His disrespect for the God of War is unforgivable. Even if the God of War doesn’t hold him responsible, we cannot just let him continue! We must punish him and make an example out of him!”

“The five companies are Kaze’s accomplices! We must get rid of them as well!”

Several other heads of the families stepped up and criticized Kaze and the five companies. They had no grudges against Kaze or Darcy, and neither had they talked to the couple.

They voiced out because they wanted to take advantage of the situation and benefit from it. Since the Vinland and Lee families were going after the five companies, even if they could not get a share of the pie, they would be happy to have some leftovers.

The earlier they sided with Hudson and Gregory, the more chances they had.

“Very well. I praise you for the wise choice. Don’t worry, as long as you are part of our crusade to take down evil, you will be rewarded!” Hudson said with a wide grin.

He raised his hand and signaled. “Serve tea!”

Beautiful waitresses brought in trays of tea and served the family heads who had taken their

stand.

With Hudson’s assurance, the family heads were thrilled and finished the tea.

The cup of tea symbolized the promise by Hudson to them.

“We will support Master Hudson!”

“We will eliminate the menace!”

“Only the capable shall be rewarded! Darcy is not capable of handling that much money from the city council! Two billion, we will make her spit out the money!”

Seeing the first few heads of families had gotten the assurance from Hudson, the others. joined them and voiced their support.

They too drained the cup of tea served to them.

Gregory laughed and said, “Hudson, the Vinland family is truly influential.”

“I can say the same to the Lees as well,” Hudson said with a smile.

They were happy with the outcome of the tea session.

Gregory grinned wickedly and said, “I think we should get a few more fierce hounds to chase and bite Darcy and her family so they will remember the pain.”

“Greg, great minds think alike.”

Hudson then looked at the guests.

“Flint Golding, Belarus Chapman, Edward Everia, where are you three?”

The hall went silent for a moment before the three family heads stepped forward and bowed.

“Master Hudson.”

Hudson signaled them to be at ease and said, “I heard what happened to your families. I know it was the God of War’s order but Kaze was the one fanning the flames. He was the one who tricked you and forced you to give Golden Edge to Shangrila Group for free.

“Now, I am giving you three a chance to make things right for yourself. I am giving you a chance to take revenge on Kaze Lee. Of course, you three will be heavily rewarded as well.”

The three families were no longer at the top of the power hierarchy but they had rooted themselves in Lilyrose for many years.

In order to conquer Lilyrose, the Vinland family had to take them in as lap dogs.

It was what Hudson had in mind.

He signaled. “Serve them tea.”

The waitresses brought tea to the three of them but neither of them took it.

“What’s wrong? The three families don’t trust me? You don’t even want to drink the tea?”

Hudson was unhappy with their response. He already saw himself as the emperor of Lilyrose.

The three family heads were nervous.

They exchanged a glance and saw the clarity in each other’s eyes. They knew they could not take the tea. 1

Mr. Lee.”

“Yeah, Master Hudson. After we were stripped of our powers, we lived miserably and everyone looked down on us. We were actually grateful to Mr. Lee for improving our situation regardless of our previous grudges.”

“Mr. Lee did not force us to sell Golden Edge. It was part of our assets and should be confiscated from the start.”
