Chapter 64
The family of three sucked in a cold, fresh breath of air and looked as if they had been petrified. Even the team of bodyguards had to step aside respectfully for George Foster.“Brother... you are here,” Rebecca stammered, but he ignored her and went directly to Elijah. “Good doctor, have you checked my uncle?”He was so respectful, like a three-year-old, and this made them not believe their eyes.Elijah told him calmly, “Your cousin and her family don't believe you sent me here. They have even refused to call you and instead called guards to have me beaten up. Can you clarify things with them so I can start my work now?”He also spoke respectfully to the man.George's face turned pale and he turned to his cousin and her family in an instant. “What nonsense! I sent a doctor here and you refuse him access to Uncle Gregory?” His body shook with rage as he spoke.“George, what doctor? Did you find him by the roadside and send him here? You must have made a mistake. You should thank us
Chapter 63
The news about the destruction of the Lancasters' facilities in Brooklyn Heights spread faster than wildfire, and by morning everyone had their own version of the story.Those who knew the name Elijah Langston was involved in the matter didn't dare say the name in public for fear of retaliation.For fifteen years no one had ever dared to speak about the Langston name or the atrocities that might have been done to them.A good number believed the various reports from the media, which provided a version of the story for everyone to follow.Those who knew the rising great families' involvement stayed mute, as anyone who spoke about the crimes would vanish mysteriously.It had always been this way until a mysterious expert who went by the name Elijah Langston attacked the Wexlers' birthday event days ago.There were just too many witnesses that day to get the news censored and quiet.Still the same day, the Blackwoods were attacked and even had their head of security beaten almost to deat

"You!" Serena jumped to her feet and quickly threw on a long overcoat.Her face was as red as a ripe apple as she shouted at him, "Get out. Now!"He hadn't expected to see her that way and had only barged in because of the faint scent of blood in the air."It's not what you think," Elijah raised his hand in defense, thinking of the best explanation to give. She definitely wouldn't believe him if he told her why he had really entered her room."What I think? You are not allowed in my room, didn't I warn you..." Serena looked like she could beat him up at that moment."You didn't lock your door well. I was worried about your leg..."That was a sensible explanation, right?She snorted and sat on the bed. "Worried, huh? Aren't you worried the Lancasters will take revenge on you?""If they disrespect my wife, I'll do it again," Elijah told her firmly, and this made her face flush even brighter. How could he casually pretend to be brazen? He was really thick-skinned."Don't even think yo
Chapter 61
".......this is all I know. It's all I really know." The patriarch of the Blackwood finished explaining to Elijah, and the eyes of his grandchildren wandered around.They had just listened to the old man narrate how they came to be one of the five great families in Brooklyn Heights by destroying the name of the Langstons.Just like the other great families, the Lancasters had their parts to play too but had lived off the benefits for years."I guess all you needed was a little motivation...." Elijah pulled a golden needle from behind the old man's spine and his body became paralyzed again. He could no longer speak or move a muscle, just like the other members of his family who had also breathed in the incapacitant from the vent.He dropped the bag containing the licenses on the table and said, "Seven days from now will mark the date when the Langstons were massacred fifteen years ago. The Lancasters must gather before the grave of the matriarch, buried on the outskirts of Brooklyn He
Chapter 60
"Grandpa, I just called the Blackwoods and they deny responsibility for the attacks on our facilities. They only summoned the Shadowless Ghost Duo to deal with the brazen expert known as Elijah Langston."Another of the old man's grandchildren stood up to announce, "Grandpa, I just spoke with the patriarch of the Wexler family. They claim they are busy gathering the full strength of their recently purchased private security company to deal with the insolent bastard who crashed their birthday event last night. This is not their doing."Yet a third grandchild announced, "Father, I spoke with the matriarch of the Ainsworths. They are our allies and have always used their media to cover for us, they have no reason to start trouble. Moreover, they only have government security, not private experts capable of carrying out strategic attacks.""The Ainsworths can't be involved. I'm always in contact with them. They even helped me with a little thing yesterday..." Anthony Lancaster chirped in
Chapter 59
“This is bullshit! Who dares to start a fight with our Lancaster family?” Andrew Lancaster’s body shook with rage as he said this. Only aristocratic and other great families might have the resources to start a fight with them.There had been no disagreement among the great families for fifteen years. Why would that change now?“Who are they? Who dares to burn down our research facilities? Do they want to die?” Anthony’s face was distorted as he spoke.Other members of the Lancasters joined in, speculating on who could be behind the attack, but none of their theories made any sense. No family in Brooklyn Heights would be that brazen.“Make the call to our facility in the Eastern District to double their production rate. As long as we have it running, we can meet all of our pending supplies and—” Anthony had barely finished speaking when a man in a security uniform stumbled into the room with his arm covered in fresh blood.“Master Anthony, I’m head of security for the Eastern Distric
