Invincible Heir

Seeing Ryan and Peter getting chewed out in public, everyone was in shock.

If it'd just been Peter, fine. But Ryan was the heir to the Harmony Group and Karl had already given him the company to manage. Soon, he'd be chairman. Now, though, Camel was insulting him in public with no regard for his reputation.

The smile froze on Ryan's face, and doubts sprang up in his mind.

He had the highest status of everyone here. If Camel hadn't come for him, who had he come here for?

Could it be that Camel wasn't the bigshot Karl had talked about?

Was Camel himself here for the said bigshot?

Thinking that far, Ryan's heart was shaken.

Even Camel was coming here personally to meet such a bigshot, so how important a figure could they be?

"Isn't that Mr. Ellis?"

Yuri looked at Camel and asked Baron in surprise.

Baron frowned. He hadn't told Camel to come.

Within the stunned crowd, Camel came to Baron's table and walked right past Baron, ignoring him while smiling at Yuri. "Hello, Miss Perry!"

Yuri still wore an expression of surprise as she hurriedly replied, "Good day, Mr. Ellis!"

Up until now, she'd been confused. She'd known about Camel and Baron's relationship and thought that Camel was here for Baron. But the man simply greeted her and stayed silent. Didn't bid one eye at Baron all the way through. Seemed like they really didn't know each other.

Many people there were relatives of the Zouch family. They might have known about Kato Prosperity, but not many of them knew who Camel was.

Of course, it wasn't all Zouch relatives there. There were also the tycoons that Ryan had invited over.

They all knew who Camel was.

"Hello, Mr. Ellis, I'm..."

"Fuck off!"

One of the tycoons Ryan had invited came up to Camel and had just started with his greeting when Camel shouted him down in public.

The man's smile froze, but Camel's position and status were both extremely high. Forget yelling at them, even if he struck them, they wouldn't have dared say anything about it.

Ever since the Porter family was exterminated and Kato Prosperity found itself under Camel, it had developed even greater power. In two short months, Kato Prosperity had become the largest enterprise in Kato.

And Camel's status could be compared to the heads of the Maguire and Woods families.

In Camel's eyes, the Harmony Group was just bottom-feeding trash. Forget the even smaller industries that Ryan had called over.

Soon, no one else dared sidle up to Camel.

After Camel entered the banquet hall, other than greeting Yuri, he didn't say anything else. It was as if he was waiting for someone.

"Mr. Jackson, this Camel doesn't give a damn about us!"

"Seems like he's waiting for someone?"

"That doesn't make sense! Even Tom Maguire and Walter Woods don't get to keep Camel waiting, right?"

"Someone who could get Camel to wait - could it be some bigshot from the city?"

The bosses on Ryan's table murmured amongst themselves, shock written across their faces.

Ryan himself was fearful. Karl had just told him to come attend the Zouch wedding because some important figure was coming. But the wedding was about to start, and no bigshot had arrived other than Camel.

Looking at Camel, it seemed like he too was waiting. If that bigshot really came here, judging from Camel's attitude towards him, he might not have an opportunity to make contact at all. "Why are you here?"

Baron asked suddenly.

Camel jolted. He'd pretended not to know Baron because he was worried that he'd expose their connection.

Now, though, Baron was initiating conversation on his own end.

He threw caution out the window and moved his seat next to Baron, whispering, "Just received news, Mr. Chairman. Tom Maguire's on his way here. Says you killed his grandson." "He doesn't know what's good for him!" Barons aid coldly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chairman. I've made preparations. If they really move against you, the Maguire family can just wait for extermination!"

Camel said with a face full of confidence.

Baron was surprised. It seemed that Camel had come alone, but he was talking about exterminating the Maguire family.

Seemed like he'd already set everything up in Kato. Maybe he really was here to give him a surprise.

Although he was dubious, Baron didn't ask too many questions. He was actually looking forward to seeing what Camel could accomplish on his own.

Seeing Camel converse in low tones with Baron, Ryan stared in shock. "How does Camel know that kid?"

He'd seen Baron yesterday in the Zouch family and knew full well he was just some son-in-law who married into the family.

He just couldn't understand - Camel wasn't even talking with him, so why would he be interacting with said random son-in-law?

Not just Ryan, but everyone else in the Zouch family was in shock.

They'd figured out Camel's status earlier, and were only in shock and doubt, not knowing why Camel was here to attend a Zouch family wedding.

But now, Camel was having himself a nice chat with Baron. Seemed like they knew each other.

"Sherry, Baron knows Mr. Ellis?"

On the frontmost table, Richard asked doubtfully, glancing at Sherry.

Sherry sneered. "He's just leeching off my daughter. Otherwise, why would he have the right to sit next to Mr. Ellis?"

"So Yuri's relationship with Mr. Ellis is good, then? I just saw Mr. Ellis greet Yuri personally," Amber asked, taken aback.

In these past two days with the Zouch family, Sherry had been plenty repressed. It was time to show off a little. She scoffed, "Yuri is the general manager of the Brone Group right now, but you might not know that before this, Mr. Ellis held that position. Which means that Yuri's the successor that Mr. Ellis propped up himelf."

She'd heard earlier that Camel was the general manager of Kato Prosperity, the largest industry in Kato, with status to rival the peak families of Kato.

With that, Yuri's own status rose a great deal.

"I didn't expect that! Yuri was propped up by the famous Mr. Ellis himself! Then, if one day, Mr. Ellis leaves Karo Prosperity, would Yuri take his place as general manager, then?"

Peter exclaimed, then said suddenly, "Then Yuri's position in Kato would be the same as the heads of the Maguire and Woods families!"

"In that case, hurry up and have Yuri speak well of the Zouch family in front of Mr. Ellis! With Mr. Ellis' status, just a word from him could lift us up into a second-rate family, right? Maybe even a first-rate family!" Amber's eyes were gleaming as she clutched at Sherry's arm, saying excitedly, "The future of the Zouch family is all on you, Sherry. Hurry up and find Yuri, have her talk to Camel about it."

"Yeah, Sherry, go to Yuri. Just say that I told her to bring it up with Mr. Ellis."

Richard piped in, emotions high.

If the Zouch family could become a grand clan of Kato, he could return to the earth without regrets.

The whole of the Zouch family started urging Sherry to go to Yuri.

At that moment, there came a huge impact. A black jeep wrangler slammed its way into the hall from outside.

Four well-built men in black walked out of the car, standing on either side, as if awaiting an important figure.

Following that, a white-haired elder with a cane strode step by step into the banquet hall. Following behind him were several more men in black. Each man had an intense aura of pressure.

"The head of the Maguire family, Tom Maguire!"

Someone recognized the elder and exclaimed in astonishment.
