Life at the Top Chapter 1410

All these young men standing in front of Henry lowered their heads and murmured underneath their breaths. Saying this, the man did not even dare look at the eyes of the other people, and he was even more afraid to look at Henry’s expression. He was even prepared to get severely beaten up. Surprisingly, their expectation of Henry’s thunderous cursing rage did not happen. Instead, he talked calmly and peacefully. “Discuss? You’re right. This is such a huge matter, too big to even make your own decisions. It’s only right that you go home and talk it out with your mommy and daddy!” Henry smiled at him and caringly said, “You better go back and discuss this right away. What’s wrong? Haven’t started the car? You need me to call you a ride?” A thrill came into the man’s body and his face was wild with joy. He instantly shook his head and said, “It’s fine, Brother Henry, it’s fine. I drove here myself, I can go back myself too.” “Well, then. I won’t hold you any longer. You can leave first, we’ll have a drink some other day.” “Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Brother Henry. Let me be the host the next time we drink.” This young man thanked Henry a million times and scurried on his way. Following the sound of the roaring engine from the car, he disappeared from the tarmac along with the smoke. With his leadership and seeing how Henry did not even get furious, a handful of them started pulling out one by one. At this point, their excuses were absolutely pointless, even saying that their girlfriends were about to go into labor was an acceptable reason. They gave all sorts of excuses. Nobody cared if your reason was completely valid. Henry was convinced all the way. He did not hold back anyone who voiced out to retreat but instead sent each of them off. It was up until the end where everyone was gone except for the two who have left behind: Howard the expressionless one and Alex the conflicted one. The initial seven people were now left with only two. Nevertheless, Henry was not angry. He tumed toward Alex. “Hey there, Mr. Jean. You’re not leaving?” “Why do you look so constipated with all that confliction in you? If you wanna leave, you can. They all left. Losing you wouldn’t be of much difference.” Up on hearing this, Alex spat on the ground, gritted his teeth, and shouted, “Damn it! If I must die then it’s meant to be. I’m not scared of anything. I’m doing it!” Those words had Howard take a good look at Alex, he grinned at his fierceness and muttered, “Not bad. He’s a man.” Alex put on a sour face and said, “Come on, that’s Fabian we’re talking about. Whatever it takes, I’m ready to put my life on the line for this fight.” Henry grinned and put his arms around Howard and Alex’s shoulders, only to realize his height was a bit of a self insult to Li Wenwu who was 6 feet tall and famous for this gesture. He then let go of them. “Those who left are unfortunate. What’s wrong with Fabian? Would I abandon you guys to him if you followed me on this task? I doubt he’d kill me if he could.” Henry let out a sinister laugh as he said, “My old man is already in Harbor City. Would Fabian dare do anything to me?” Alex forced out a wry smile as he spoke, “Brother Henry, Fabian’s old man is also in Harbor City.” “His old man? Would his dad dare speak loudly in front of my grandpa?” Henry said resoundingly with a stare. Alex’s eyes widened and exclaimed, “Brother Henry, the old man you’re referring to is the Old Master Law and not your dad?” “Damn, I was talking about my grandpa all along.” Henry laughed. Alex was immediately relieved. He smiled comfortably and said, “If the Old Master Law gave his approval to this matter then surely we’re in safe hands.” After saying this, Alex smirked and spoke, “I knew those bunch of idiots weren’t one with us, I could see it in them. They won’t even know how to regret this after walking away like that.” Alex was indeed speaking some truth in that. The second-generation descendants were particularly haggling over every penny.
