Sirius glanced at Zayden and replied calmly, “Why are you two so rushed? This is something big, after
all.”
Zayden shrugged. “I’m not particularly impatient, but the people at Harbor City are tired of waiting. It’s
just Jasper Laine, so he’s not worth so much of their time and thoughts.
“Getting rid of Jasper means the fall of Schuler Group as well, Uncle Sirius. By then, the entire Schuler
Group will belong to the Hanks family. What else are you worried about? Just look at how great the
rewards will be.”
Sirius lit a cigarette and took a few small drags before he replied, “I’m not worried, it’s just that
Dawson’s power has really spread throughout the Southeast Province right now. It won’t do us any
good to offend him.”
Zayden replied calmly, “I knew that you’d be worried about something like this, so I came up with a fool-
proof plan.”
Sirius arched a brow at Zayden, waiting for him to continue.
While they sounded close and called each other ‘Uncle’ and ‘Nephew’, Sirius was well aware of how
ingenuine his nephew was.
Not to mention that the power of the family only resided with him now because Zayden had lost to
Jasper once. That was how Sirius managed to take the title of head of the family from Sylva.
While the two of them were family, neither minded backstabbing the other if need be.
“The Monty family has already wholeheartedly agreed to help when we decide to attack,” Zayden
whispered.
The cigarette in Sirius’ hand shifted as he gasped. “The Monty family?! Really?!”
The Monty family was the lowest profile family in the Southeast Province despite having the deepest
roots in the province.
If the Hanks family was undoubtedly considered a large family in the Southeast Province, then the
Monty family would surely be the number one family in the province.
It was just that members of the Monty family were extremely low profile. It was rare for them to take any
action, so other families in the Southeast Province tended to forget about them.
However, it was an unspoken fact known by all that the Monty family’s benefits in the Southeast
Province were not to be touched—or one would end up dead before they knew it.
Zayden chuckled, unsurprised by Sirius’ reaction.
Zayden was more shocked than Sirius when he first found out about it.
“The support Harbor City is giving me is more than just money.”
Zayden decided to show his hand slightly and said, “I might as well go straight to the point. Before I got
back from Harbor City, I met Conrad at the big shot’s home.”
Sirius knitted his brows tightly and spoke solemnly, “Conrad Monty, the head of the Monty family. He’s
only 32 this year but I’ve seen him before on some special occasions. He’s indeed an outstanding
character. They say that the Southeast Province hasn’t seen someone as outstanding as him in the
past 50 years.”
Zayden smiled with squinted eyes and spoke, “You shouldn’t have any more concerns, right, Uncle
Sirius?”
Sirius’ eyes flitted as he replied, “I need to see Conrad.”
Zayden frowned slightly in impatience. “You know what his personality is like. He doesn’t just meet
anyone.”
Sirius sighed. “The Hanks family can’t suffer another loss again. I’ve got to be more careful.”
Zayden was just about to speak when the doors to the private room suddenly opened. Entering the
room was an elegant man in a white tunic, looking exquisite with his gold-rimmed glasses.
“I’ll just come in directly since you want to meet me.”
The person who entered the room was Conrad Monty.
At the sight of Conrad, Sirius stood reflexively to greet him. Glancing at Zayden from the corners of his
eyes, he was shocked to find Zayden more surprised than he was.
