Chapter 2404
“I barely got here after getting the news today.
“If I didn’t, the pillar of Longmen would’ve died in the hands of Dragon Palace!
“How many of these things are happening behind the scenes unnoticed? Surely nobody has any idea!
“The cornerstones of Country H were established so the country could forever flourish, not for some
wealthy people to use as tools!
“I think it’s high time for the Dragon Palace to be reformed.”
Along with Queenie York’s confession, Samuel Bauer, Peyton Horan, and Jesse Xavier immediately
questioned Dragon Palace’s authority.
The three cornerstones kept each other in check, but they wouldn’t turn against each other. That was
why things like those didn’t happen quite
often.
But since Dragon Palace was in charge of
overseas affairs, its growth had already surpassed the other three cornerstones. There was no way to
keep them in check either.
The higher-ups of County H meant to question them through this incident too.
Lexie York rubbed her temples. That was Lexie’s first time showing a frown on her pure face.
After everyone was done talking, she sighed.
“Queenie is indeed problematic. Dragon Palace also made a huge mistake in this matter.
“But there’s no need for all of you to act righteously. Why don’t you tell me how you want
the Dragon Palace to compensate?”
Peyton, Jesse, and Samuel looked at each other.
“I’m not the victim here. I don’t have any sentiments about this incident either.
“That’s why you should be asking Harvey York about that.”
Harvey glanced at Samuel indifferently. He didn’ t expect that Samuel would see through his intent to
reform the entirety of Dragon Palace at
that moment.
Lexie nodded slightly before shifting her gaze onto Harvey.
“What do you propose we do, Branch Leader York? Would you like any form of compensation?”
“I don’t need any compensation. There’s nothing that I need,” said Harvey calmly while
3/6
looking at Lexie.
“I can’t be bothered to say anything righteous either.
“I don’t care what Dragon Palace is doing overseas, but from now on, I don’t think the Dragon Palace is
worth being in charge of the branch in Hong Kong and Las Vegas!
“I want the branch to operate independently!
“All of the higher-ups from the branch should be fired on the spot!
“Since Hong Kong and Las Vegas are both gateways to Country H, many outside forces have been
setting foot in these places, even making statements threatening Country H’s
peace.
“Many masters of the Empire are also planning to invade the country through Hong Kong and Las
Vegas!
“Dragon Palace’s branch should’ve been in charge of dealing with this, but none of you even batted an
eye about the situation!
“That’s why I think it’s better to have a new person in charge.”
Harvey’s expression remained unchanged, but Queenie and the others were frantically twitching their
eyes.
“This guy’s planning to remove the Dragon Palace’s branch once and for all!’
‘He definitely has the authority for this too!
Peyton and the others glanced at Lexie without saying a single word…
But most of the time, silence is the best answer.
Lexie’s expression kept changing while she showed a cold gaze before sighing furtively.
The Dragon Palace had been prospering for many years. That was why the younger generation would
dare to act this arrogantly.
Nobody thought that Harvey’s failed assassination attempts would cause such a big ripple to them.
Since even the higher-ups knew about the matter, it would be impossible just to leave it
alone.
“Fine. I’ll accept your proposal, but on one condition,” said Lexie steadily after glaring at Harvey for a
short moment.
