Chapter 5009
"You little b*stard!
"How dare you speak to me this way?!"
Reuben Jean was utterly enraged.
"What is wrong with your family, Simon?!
"As the head family of the ninth branch, you couldn't even teach a damn live-in son-in-law properly!
"You disappoint me!
"At this point, I should probably hold a meeting with the Elder Group. Maybe we need a different branch head
instead!
"Letting ignorant and disrespectful people in positions of power wouldn't benefit us anyway!"
Elodie Jean and Aunt Witby's eyes lit up.
"That's right! It's about time we have a different branch head!" the two exclaimed.
"Someone might just take advantage of others with all that arrogance!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLilian Yates' eyes twitched before glaring at Harvey York.
"Elder Reuben is a prominent figure, Harvey! If you're going to challenge him like that, at least leave Mandy out of
this!"
"Don't worry. He's just an arrogant and unreasonable man with some skill," replied Harvey.
"People like that can't go against Mandy, let alone me.
"He doesn't have the power."
Everyone went dead silent.
They gasped in disbelief after returning to their senses.
Nobody thought Harvey would be this straightforward. Who was Reuben?
He was an elder of the Jean family's Elder Group!
He was even the head of the ninth branch in the past!
A retired old man did not hold much authority...
But his knowledge and power were simply too immense!
Along with his reputation in the family, he was still quite a prominent figure, even if he was not one of the most
revered.
No matter where he went, he would still be greatly respected.
Even the descendants of the first branch would not treat him differently...
And yet Harvey provoked him without even thinking!
What was he doing?!
Was he planning to challenge Reuben's authority?!
Elodie excitedly fanned the flames after hearing those words.
"You're just useless filth, Harvey! How dare you talk back against Elder Reuben like this?! What right do you even
have to spout those things?!
"He accomplished so many things when he was young!
You'd be scared to death if we pulled out every single one of his achievements!
"You think he has no authority just because he's retired!
"That's why you're looking down on him, right?!
"What a close-minded and arrogant man!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElodie wanted to crush Harvey's spirits with her bare words.
The monk behind Reuben slowly raised his head before coldly glaring at Harvey. He did not expect someone to be
this ignorant to disrespect Reuben like this.
Mandy stepped up, wanting to prevent the situation from escalating.
"Forget it, Harvey..."
"Forget it?
Harvey chuckled.
"There's something you're forgetting.
"I'm currently not married to Mandy.
"Simply put, I'm not a part of the family.
"It's natural for you people to respect him...
"But as an outsider, why should I entertain an arrogant man who can't differentiate right from wrong?
"The country respects its elders, but what right does he even have for me to do so?
"If he didn't seem that weak, I would've slapped him to the damn ground by now..."
