“What’s going on!”
“What’s gotten into Mr. Potter!”
“I don’t get it, it’s totally baffling!”
Everyone was voicing their confusion, one after another, expressing their lack of understanding.
Miguel Abbott’s attitude had been very clear just now—he was opposing everyone present.
Yet Stanislaus Potter, as one of the primary victims, had seemingly disregarded the matter.
It’s illogical!
“Quiet!”
Stanislaus Potter shouted, and the noisy conference room instantly fell silent.
Everyone wanted to see what the Chairman of the Golden Eagle Group was up to.
As the secretary continued to operate, the video was instantly projected onto the screen in the conference room.
The equipment was highly advanced, as it was a high-end conference room.
The first scene was at Gonzalez City’s Ocean Park, where Julius Reed was beating Quamaine Potter, forcing him to kneel on the ground and mimic a dog.
At the sight of this scene, everyone couldn’t help but look towards Stanislaus Potter.
The complexion of the Golden Eagle Group’s Chairman darkened, clearly touching a sore spot.
But this was no surprise, as the video had been widely circulated—almost everyone had seen it.
The Potter family had tried to suppress the incident as soon as it happened, but exceptionally, it was not contained.
It seemed as if someone was assisting from behind, spreading the news rapidly.
Stanislaus Potter felt something was amiss at that time, and now it appeared certain that the Leopold Family was the pusher behind the scenes!
Only, at that time, he was blinded by rage, intent on revenge, and had forgotten such an important matter.
But the people present were very curious, wondering why this video was being shown for no apparent reason.
To humiliate oneself? To let everyone relive the video of Young Master Potter imitating a dog’s bark?
Despite their doubts, there had to be a reason why Stanislaus Potter had made such a big fuss.
The helmsman of the Golden Eagle Group wouldn’t act so irrationally—how else could he have created his empire in Five-river Province?
The video continued to play in an orderly manner, quickly reaching the part everyone thought was the end.
But the video kept on playing.
And then came a voice-over: “This video is enough to provoke the anger of the Potter family. By then, my Leopold Family will reap the benefits of the fisherman and will surely dominate Five-river Province.”
“Young Master, this man doesn’t seem very capable. Although he can fight, couldn’t the Potter family easily kill him? Aren’t we making a mountain out of a molehill with this?”
“Don’t worry! I was there that day when he trashed the Three Blade Group’s venue. The fact that Maurice Yarrow is now playing the tortoise shows that this kid has an unusual background!”
As this statement was heard, Maurice Yarrow showed a hint of displeasure.
Being called a tortoise was understandably upsetting.
“If that’s the case, I’ll edit the video and upload it to the internet when I get back.”
“Make it clean, leave no trace! Don’t even let anyone guess our location, in case someone checks the surveillance and discovers us.”
“Rest assured! You can trust in my work!”
At the end of the video, Atlas Leopold shook his head with a smile.
There it abruptly ended.
The complete version of the video!
“Leopold, you’ve got some explaining to do!”
Stanislaus Potter slammed the table fiercely, pointing at the elder Leopold and cursing, “Mr. Dog, Atlas Leopold has tried to stir up trouble between us, ruin my family, and you’ve all played your hand well! Good, good, good!”
He said “good” three times, scoffed, and added, “It was a fine thing that Atlas Leopold’s leg was broken! Why weren’t both of them!”
“Say that again!”
Bang!
The elder Leopold slammed his cane down hard on the table: “Stanislaus Potter, don’t slander me! This has nothing to do with my family! Where did you get this video? Have you never suspected it might be fake? You are slandering my family’s young master, and this is not over!”
The incident of Atlas Leopold’s broken leg had long been a sore point for the Leopold Family.
Now, with Stanislaus Potter bringing it up again and maliciously cursing the young man, the elder was provoked to rage.
“Doesn’t your family know whether the video is fake or not?”
Stanislaus Potter’s lips trembled slightly, his heart filled with extreme anger!
As the chairman of Golden Eagle Group, he had actually been played for a fool by a junior; if it wasn’t for seeing the complete video today, he might have been kept in the dark until the very end.
It was an ironic turn of events how the Leopold Family designed a trap for the Potter Family and now had reversed roles to join hands with them.
As for the authenticity of the video, Stanislaus Potter had of course harbored doubts.
However, Atlas Leopold had been in the diplomatic circle for many years, and his voice had long been familiar to everyone.
In addition, Atlas Leopold appeared at the end of the video, an impossibility to fake!
This segment of the video was exactly the same as the one online!
“Stanislaus Potter! I warn…
“Say it again!”
Stanislaus Potter pointed at the elder of the Leopold Family: “I’m telling you to say it again!”
His eyes were bloodshot, and at the same time, the Leopold Family’s bodyguards stepped out, surrounding Stanislaus Potter.
“Speak!”
Stanislaus Potter, without a hint of fear.
“Mr. Potter, you need to stay calm! If you act rashly and start internal strife, wouldn’t that be playing into their deceitful schemes?”
When Cesar Pendleton said this, he clearly glanced at Miguel Abbott. He believed that Miguel Abbott was the one stirring up trouble behind the scenes.
“Mr. Pendleton, if it was your son whose leg was broken, could you bear it! Go watch the video yourself!”
Maurice Yarrow immediately countered.
The phrase “head-shrinking turtle” previously uttered by Atlas Leopold had made him very uncomfortable.
Since they made him feel uncomfortable, then the Leopold Family should not expect to have it easy.
Maurice Yarrow, who had once harbored fantasies about the alliance, now stood completely opposed to Atlas Leopold. 𝓯𝑟𝓮ℯ𝘸ℯ𝘣𝑛ℴ𝘷ℯ𝓵.𝘤𝑜𝑚
“You…”
Cesar Pendleton’s brow furrowed, and he fell silent.
Now he could see the situation clearly.
The wavering Three Blade Group was leaning towards Miguel Abbott, and now that Stanislaus Potter had also had a fallout with the Leopold Family, it was time for him to consider his future.
Should he still stick with the Leopold Family?
It would be a shame if he ended up neither enjoying the benefits nor suffering losses to his own interests.
“Stanislaus Potter, calm down!”
The elder of the Leopold Family did not dare cross the bottom line of the chairman of the Golden Eagle Group but instead took a deep breath to maintain his composure.
“The video, where did it come from!”
He looked at Stanislaus Potter, his eyes filled with resentment.
Miguel Abbott raised his hand from the side: “I provided the video, any problem with that?”
“No problem?”
The elder sneered coldly: “Miguel Abbott, everyone knows now that you and Julius Reed are quite close! By bringing out the video, aren’t you just trying to make us fight among ourselves? Yet, there are really people who believe it!” He spoke with considerable dissatisfaction.
Since they were already at odds with the Abbott Family, there was nothing he couldn’t say.
“Isn’t this enough? What else is there?”
At that moment, Julius Reed, who was standing behind Miguel Abbott, took off his hat, revealing his face.
He also took a stack of photos from his chest and threw them on the table.
“It’s you!”
Everyone called out in unison, pointing their weapons at Julius Reed.
“Finish looking at the photos before settling accounts!” Julius Reed smiled faintly, not taking these people seriously.
“Alright!”
Stanislaus Potter now had no doubts; he picked up the photos and began to look at them carefully..
