Chapter 2957 After listening to Edwin Mendoza , Harvey York nodded lightly before looking at his
documents again.
“So, what‘s up with this Joseph Bauer guy?”
After scrolling through the phone for a moment, Edwin then softly replied, “Joseph Bauer is the
thirteenth descendant of the Bauer family, one of the top ten families of Country H. Everyone calls him
the Thirteenth Young Master Bauer.
“It‘s also said that he‘s one of the top candidates to become the head of his family.
“There are two other candidates besides him, the eldest young master, Jeff Bauer, and the seventh
young master, Harold Bauer.”
Harvey frowned.
“That’s it?”
“Of course not. Throughout history, the head of the Bauer family always assumed another identity, the
master of Longmen,” replied Edwin.
“It‘s the same for this generation as well.
“Simply put, no matter who rises to power, other than becoming the head of the family, they‘ll also be
sitting on
the Longmen‘s throne.
“That‘s why these young masters had constantly been fighting in Flutwell for this position for the past
couple of years. “Jeff has support from the Elder Group and the Law Enforcement of Longmen. It‘s said
that half of Longmen‘s branch leaders are also standing beside him.
“Of course, you‘re not included.”
“Harold, on the other hand, has the most support within the entire family. It‘s said that the old lady of
the family‘s quite fond of him too.
“Safe to say that these two people have both halves of Flutwell for themselves. It‘s hard to know who‘s
going to win since they‘re both on par with each other.”
Harvey frowned.
“What about Joseph? What gives him the right to rise to
power?”
“Business,” Edwin quietly replied. “You should know that Flutwell is a special place. It‘s located on high
ground. It had been extremely desolate in the past, and it only flourished after the founding of Country
H.
“But even with the country‘s support, Flutwell‘s economy was still subpar. The place was focused on
tourism at that time.
“About six years ago, Joseph came out of nowhere and integrated most of Flutwell‘s medium and
small–sized businesses to form an alliance.
“With this alliance, Joseph dominated Flutwell‘s business as a whole.
“Then, Joseph’s alliance unintentionally struck a small gold mine, skyrocketing the alliance‘s strength in
just a single night!
“And from that moment onward, the entirety of Flutwell was cheering for Joseph‘s rise to power. “With
the support of small and middle – sized families, Joseph was fully prepared to go against Jeff and
Harold! “After all, anyone can buy talented people under their belt with enough money. Naturally,
Joseph was able to stand his ground in Flutwell…”
“What does all this have to do with me?”
Edwin bitterly chuckled.
“It‘s not significant, but yes, you‘re still involved.
“Joseph has always been an outcast. Even after his ascent, he still has no power to extend his reach
outside Flutwell.
“That‘s why he‘s been trying to marry a woman from one of the top ten families.
“But because of his identity, many top–rated families declined him.
“Recently, he bumped into your wife. Madam Yates is also pretty fond of him...”
