Chapter 788 Don’t Say Things You Won’t Do

Everyone was shocked.

Not only did the Vikrom, Logman, and Joestar families ask Hudson to leave Lilyrose, but even Mayor Johnson stepped up and expressed his opinion openly.

Regardless of the blood and storm that the Vinland family had or would cause, they were at huge investor in the city, and having them would only develop the city further.

Yet as mayor, Johnson asked the major investor to leave the city.

What would people think of him if the news got out?

Hudson’s expression turned grim. He scoffed, “Mayor Brooks, you don’t welcome the Vinland family as well?”

The Brookses were also a first–tier family in Lilyrose yet Hudson spoke to the mayor with

absolute disdain.

He showed no respect to anyone who dared to turn on him, even if it was the mayor.

His reputation and power were the source of his confidence. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Back in Chrysant, the Vinland family had the power to determine who would be

mayor.

The new mayor would have to visit the Vinland family and pay respect to Hudson in person, or else the mayor’s term would be cut short.

Johnson shook his head. “No, I am just respecting Mr. Lee’s decision and I hope Mr. Vinland would consider leaving as well. Don’t speak too soon.”

He was speaking the truth; Kaze had openly demanded Hudson to leave Lilyrose.

From that moment onward, those who knew his true identity knew what he would do to the Vinlands if they disobeyed him.

It was only natural that the top three families–Vikroms, Logmans, Joestars–and the mavor sided with Kaze.

“Stop saying that name in front of me. You people are just using that little bastard as an excuse and want the Vinland family to leave!”

Hudson was a master at controlling his emotions yet even he lost control of his

t control of his anger when being provoked openly.

He was furious after being provoked, not once but thrice. He looked at Johnson and the others with disdain and said, “A few first–tier families are not enough to stop the Vinland family.”

He stubbornly thought that Johnson and the others simply disliked them and used Kaze as

an excuse.

As for the top three families, who should resent Kaze more than anyone else, they were obviously scared of what Kaze did to them, thus refusing to express their stance.

Johnson shook his head and sighed.

If Hudson wanted to court death, then no one could stop him.

“Guys, let’s go somewhere else for tea,” Johnson called out to Bernard and the others before leaving.

After Johnson and the others left, even though the Vinland family got the majority of the support, they were families of second–tier or lower.

Those who sided with Kaze were the mayor and three first–tier families.

Hudson was embarrassed.

“Master Hudson, don’t mind them. The four of them and their respective families are no match for the top three families. They can’t start anything together. When you get the five companies, you can go after them and make them regret their choice.”

“They are trying to stop the Vinland family from entering Lilyrose. How foolish!”

“Yeah! They even addressed Kaze Mr. Lee, what a joke.”

Blake and the others tried to flatter Hudson.

They wished the Vinlands would go after those who disobeyed them.

If it really happened, the second–tier families would benefit from the conflict and rise to

power.

In the end, the tea session ended on a dull note.

“Greg, I heard that the mayor, Johnson Brooks, has been protecting Kaze Lee. He’s also one of Kaze’s supporters. Judging from his tone, he doesn’t want our families here,” Hudson

said.

“You’re right. I don’t like Johnson either. When Darcy failed to get the funds, it was he who

sent the specialists away and broke the rules by giving Quartet Group two billion dollars.”

Gregory had been unhappy with Johnson for a while now.

When the Lee family was applying for the funds, the specialist group sided with them but they were taken away by the local police department based on some false accusation.

Mr. Yale from Sunrise University was also beaten up by Kaze and was still hospitalized just

because he was close with the Lees.

It forced the Lees to use many of their connections and debt of gratitude.
