Chapter 1042 – The Revercrest Patriarch’s Dread
*****As soon as the Revercrest patriarch saw his son’s reaction, he felt his body tremble as though a low surge of electric current had touched him.Before he could even stop himself, a deep, trembling breath slipped out as he wiped the cold sweat from his brow.Then, for the first time in what felt like an eternity, a wide smile spread across his face, relief washing over him so intensely that it almost felt like euphoria.‘They knew him!’‘Thank heavens… they knew him!’He nearly wept.Meanwhile, across the room, the wealthy man’s eyes gleamed faintly, a subtle flash of interest passing through them before he turned slightly, exchanging a brief, unreadable glance with his PA.She met his gaze respectfully; however, no words were exchanged.The patriarch, however, didn’t have the luxury of silence.“You three should start talking… now!” he ordered anxiously and hopefully, his gaze snapping between the three men.His voice carried urgency, fear, and desperation all at once
Chapter 1041 – “How Could It Be Him?”
*****Before accepting the photograph, the Revercrest Patriarch had anticipated many people… A seasoned middle-aged powerhouse, the leader of another first-rank force, or even the leader of some second-rank family, pretending to be weak… any face at all that made sense.But this?The photograph showed only a boy who couldn’t be more than 25 yet, and this…The old man lifted his gaze toward the wealthy man, his mouth parting slightly, desperately hoping that this was nothing but some joke. After all, how could someone this young be the said Organization’s competitor?It made no sense whatsoever. But…The wealthy man’s face remained unchanged.‘He doesn’t look like he’s joking…’ The realization struck the elderly patriarch like ice water.And before he even knew it, cold sweat soaked into his clothes, clinging uncomfortably to his skin.The problem was simple… and also fatal at the same time.He had never seen the face in the photograph before, and given the gravity of the wea
Chapter 1040 – “A Boy?”
*****At this moment, the Revercrest Patriarch wouldn’t stop thinking, even after what felt like an eternity had already passed.His mind spiraled in tight, wild, and frantic circles, sifting through every family, every hidden faction, and every power in this city.Yet, no matter how hard he searched or how desperately he dug through his memories, he could not think of a single force capable of standing against the terrifying organization.Not one.So… his throat bobbed as he swallowed, suppressing his helplessness while summoning the last trace of courage he had left.Then slowly and painfully, he lifted his head at last, his mouth opening.“Ma… master,” he stammered, his voice thin and unsteady. “Are you… Are you really sure you are talking about this city?” He dared to raise his eyes just enough to sneak another glance at the wealthy man seated before him.However, the moment their gazes almost aligned, his last resolve shattered.He dropped his head again as if struck, sw
Chapter 1039 – The Revercrest Patriarch’s Confusion
*****The wealthy man paused just long enough for silence to consume everything. Then…“For nearly a century now,” he continued calmly, his tone still unnervingly light and flat, “the organization has supported your family.”His words were slow and deliberate, each word landing like a measured step toward a grave.“We empowered your family and shielded it, supplying it with priceless resources, information, influence, and everything you ever needed to rise… and to remain untouchable.”His voice neither rose nor fell. In fact, there was no emphasis or accusation.However, that made it worse. The more he spoke, the more the four men trembled.Their fear didn’t spike… it accumulated, stacking layer upon layer until breathing itself felt dangerous for them.“But despite all this,” the wealthy man continued, “the organization never interfered in anything concerning your family.”This time, his tone finally shifted.It was only slightly. However, that slight change instantly made
Chapter 1038 – The Disordered Brothers
*****At this moment, the wealthy man had completely discarded the harmless, gentle, and casual façade he usually wears in public… the warm smiles, polite manners, and “reasonable businessman” act.What remained was his true nature… vicious, dark, absolute, and merciless.He sat there without moving, his posture relaxed, with one arm resting against the chair as though this wasn’t a moment of life and death but an afternoon inconvenience.His face was utterly blank… so blank that it was terrifying. There was no trace of anger, no satisfaction, and not even boredom on his face. It was just empty, and somehow… this absence of emotion was far more frightening than rage. The kneeling men felt it too, the silence pressing down on them like an invisible blade, each second stretching painfully long.Finally…“Master, please… please give us a second chance!!!”The Rivercrest Patriarch’s voice cracked as he cried out, his pride dissolving completely. “Please, Master! Give us a sec
Chapter 1037 – An Obsequious Revercrest Family
*****Inside an exclusive, obscenely luxurious presidential suite... one that didn’t merely suggest wealth but screamed it.The marble floors gleamed like mirrors underneath the glowing chandeliers, while the walls were draped in fabrics imported from places normal people only saw on postcards, and the entire furniture was handcrafted from rare, overtly expensive gold-wood.However, currently at the center of this room, four figures knelt on the ground, shaking uncontrollably before a red royal chair.And these four people… they were far from being insignificant. Certainly not disposable pawns or background figures meant to be ignored.No.In fact, if anyone in Riverton City were to walk into this room right now and see this scene, their mind would reject it on instinct, their eyes would deny it, and their brain would short-circuit, desperately trying to wake them from what had to be nothing but a dream. And why?These four were among the most feared, respected, and untouchable
