Invincible Heir

Chapter 18 Banished from the clan

With that looming threat, Henry made to leave.

“Hear that, Tracy? Just three days to settle things with Mr. Camel, before your whole family gets

expelled! Now that I think of it, I don’t even remember seeing the head of the clan invoke his authority

like that,” Phillip laughed, smug as ever.

For the head of the clan to directly invoke his authority, it was the highest command possible in the

ranks of the Perry family. The head of the clan had to pen it in person, and could only do so once a

year.

Now, Henry was bringing such a level of authority to bear against Tracy.

Tracy had frozen on the spot. She’d never thought her own grandfather was capable of something like

this. Not against her of all people.

This was the first time she’d felt such despair towards her own clan.

This was the first time she found herself thinking of breaking away from the clan entirely.

For three straight days, Tracy loitered by the Brone Group, failing even to place one foot through the

threshold.

Brone company building, penthouse, Chairman’s office.

In front of a giant plane-glass window, a youthful silhouette stood with hands clasped behind his back,

studying the small, fragile figure far below him with eyes full of pity.

“Chairman, sir, it’s been three days. Aren’t you going to let her in?” Camel asked, ever so cautiously.

Baron shook his head. “This is the only way she’ll realize the truth. You have to be vicious with the

Perry Clan, or they’ll just end up stepping over you like this.”

Tracy waited in front of the building for three days. Baron watched her from inside for three days.

He’d only been back for a few short days, and already he had borne witness to more injury and

injustice than he could count, all levied against Tracy. It was difficult to imagine just how much she had

suffered in five whole years.

Tracy was outside, while his own pain was etched deep within.

Beneath the Brone company building, Yuri looked on at her sister, pained. “Sis, the Perry Clan is just

pushing whatever grief they have with the Brone Group onto your shoulders. A clan like this isn’t worth

the trouble!”

Eyes red, Tracy maintained, “I created Samho with my own two hands. I am not giving it up.”

“Even if you restore collaboration between the Perry Clan and the Brone Group, the clan’s still not

going to hand the Samho Group back to you!” Yuri cried, frustrated.

“Well, I can’t stand by and watch my company implode like this!” Tracy wept.

Yuri’s temper wilted upon seeing Tracy’s tears, and she reached out to hug her even as her own tears

began to fall. “Sis, there no need to go so far!”

Watching the despairing sisters from his perch on the penthouse, Baron did not relent.

“I’m going in to talk to Camel!” Yuri rubbed her eyes and rushed into the company.

For three days while Tracy waited outside, Yuri had searched for Camel from the inside on her end. But

she was a new hire. New hires simply didn’t meet with general managers on their first fortnight.

“Yuri, get a hold of yourself! If you barge in looking for Mr. Camel like this, you could lose your job.”

Seeing how volatile Yuri was, Bonnie began to panic.

“Even if I end up fired, I need to see Mr. Camel. Refusing the offer is one thing, but at least have the

decency to meet my sister! She’s been standing in the doorway for three straight days, without even a

glimpse of Camel’s shadow!” Yuri said, incensed.

“Quiet down!” Bonnie hissed, clapping a hand over Yuri’s mouth.

“Out of my way!”

Yuri shoved her off and made her way straight towards the general manager’s office.

With a loud bang, she pushed her way in.

“Yuri!” By the time Bonnie caught up, it was too late.

“Mr. Camel, I know you’re an important person. Too important for the likes of us. But even so, you don’t

get to step on us like this! My sister’s been waiting for you outside for three solid days! All you have to

do is say yes or no, so why are you torturing her with silence?” Yuri blasted, seeing red.

“Escort her out.”

Camel spoke. “Tell her that the Perry Clan has offended a very important figure, and now they’re paying

the price.”

Bonnie had been sweating bullets over Yuri’s actions. Then Camel held his temper and even explained

the reasoning behind the cancellation, and her anxiety turned to astonishment.

Yuri, in the meantime, had caught the crux of what Camel was saying. Shocked, she asked, “A very

important figure? It’s not because they offended you, then?”

Camel shook his head bitterly. “I’m nothing compared to that figure.”

Yuri was completely stunned. In her eyes, Camel was already a massively important person. Even the

elite families of Cona treated him with the respect due his station – but now, it seemed, there was

someone above even him.

“Sis, Mr. Camel wants me to tell you something.”

Back downstairs, Yuri looked at her sister with a complicated expression.

“What did he say?” Tracy said, emotions running wild.

“Mr. Camel says that the Perry Clan has offended some massively important character, before whom

even Mr. Camel himself is nothing. It’s that person’s bidding keeping you from meeting him,” Yuri

explained.

Hearing that, Tracy toppled over, but Yuri caught her before she could fall.

“You tried, Sis. It’s not your fault. So please, enough of this,” Yuri said, her heart aching for her sister’s

sorry state. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Tracy was left in despair. “Is this the end of Samho?”

Samho Group, Chairman’s office.

Phillip sat in front of his office desk, still as smug as ever. “Have you heard about Tracy? Bitch waited

three whole days outside the Brone company building without so much as a peep in return. She’s done

for this time! We’re just waiting for Granddad’s command to exile her from the family!”

The few direct bloodline clan members in the office were all lackeys. Each and every one of them failed

to realize that, upon the breakdown of Tracy’s negotiations, the Perry Clan itself would be plunged into

great danger.

As the saying goes, “All intellectual tendencies are corrupted when they consort with power.”

Phillip took a look at his watch and rose. “It’s almost time. Put a call through to security. Let’s head to

Tracy’s place and watch the show!”

And just like that, a mass of Perry direct clan members followed Phillip along with eight security guards,

heading straight for Tracy’s household.

A great bang came from the doorway as Sherry toiled in the kitchen.

“Terry, what was that noise?” She ran out of the kitchen. Terry himself was still seated calmly on the

sofa, poring over a newspaper.

“I’ll go take a look!” Terry put down reading and left the house.

The moment he stepped outside, he found that the gates to the garden had already been taken apart,

and that eight guards in Samho security uniforms were breaking inside.

And behind those security guards were quite a few members of the direct Perry bloodline, foremost of

whom was Phillip, spectating the whole affair.

“Phillip! What are you doing?” Terry demanded, outraged.

Phillip walked forward amicably, looked down upon a seething Terry and gloated, “Granddad gave your

daughter three days to restore relations with the Brone Group before he banished the lot of you from

the clan. Now that the three days are over, why don’t you hazard a guess what I’m doing here?”

“Don’t you dare!” Terry’s rage reached a boiling point as he spread himself in front of the doorway.

“You’re just a bastard son forcefully occupying the Perry ancestral mansion, so stop putting on airs!”

Phillip snorted, gesturing. “Toss them all out!”

Sherry could only watch through the window as a pair of security guards dragged Terry out into the dirt.

Frightened, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

The Perry sisters, still crying and clutching at each other beneath of the Brone company building, found

themselves suddenly interrupted by the ringtone.

Tracy picked up and immediately heard chaos going on in the background. Then the voice of Sherry

shouted, “Tracy, hurry back with Yuri; Phillip’s brought a mob with him to evict us!”
