Chapter 30
In the headquarters of the Porter family’s company in Guplyae, the boss and the head of the Porter
family-Reuben Porter-was kneeling in his office with his head down, looking Ashen. Not only did he not
dare to utter a word, but he was also afraid to look up at the person in front of him. That was because
he had encountered an unforgettable scene that made him unhinge two hours ago. Two hours ago, he
was playing games with his long-legged, gorgeous secretary in his office. Suddenly, he received a
phone call from the leader of the underground forces in Oplen-Ernie Green. As his fear spike, he
quickly answered the call only to hear Ernie warn, “Reuben, you’re so dead. If you want to live, stay in
the company or try to run if you dare…” At once, Reuben was a bundle of nerves, and he directly drove
the beautiful secretary out. Shaking like a leaf, he called Ernie, but Ernie didn’t answer. No matter how
powerful Reuben was, he was just a boss of a small company, which was no match for Ernie. Hence,
he didn’t dare to flee because if he did, he would get himself killed. Trying to escape from Ernie’s
territory? Not a chance… As expected, when Reuben recollected himself and looked downstairs,
several hooligans had arrived. At once, his heart sank. However, the most despairing part was that he
had no idea what he had done at all! He seemed dumbfounded, and even though he racked his brain,
he still didn’t know who he had offended. Soon, more than ten minutes later, Ernie came with more
than a hundred people. When they arrived, they surrounded Reuben’s company. Reuben was a cruel
man who would oppress his employees. Therefore, despite the late hours, there were still a group of
employees working overtime. And obviously, those people also wouldn’t have a chance to leave
tonight. The moment Ernie entered the company, he went directly to Reuben’s office. At the sight of
him, Reuben fearfully knelt. Actually, Reuben had only heard of Ernie through the underworld. He had
never seen Ernie before. Even so, he was afraid of Ernie because, throughout these years, he had
heard about the tragic fate of countless people who went against Ernie. Hence, he knelt without
hesitation. “Mr. Green, I … I have no idea what I’ve done. Please, tell me. No matter what, I will accept
your punishment willingly. Please spare my life…” Terrified, Reuben begged for mercy. On the other
hand, Ernie walked up to Reuben and looked at him coldly. Then, he insinuated, “You’re so dead. If you
offended me, you might still have a chance to
live. But the worst part is, you don’t even know who you have offended!” Upon hearing that, Reuben
realized that he didn’t offend Ernie. As for Ernie’s last few words, he automatically ignored them and
muttered, “Thank god I didn’t offend you. You scared me.” Ernie stared at Reuben weirdly. After a long
while, he spoke, “Are you an idiot? Didn’t you hear my last words? Well, I’ll repeat. You’ve offended
someone that even I can’t afford to offend. Get it?” Oh, sh*t! This time, Reuben finally understood, and
his face instantly turned pale. He looked at Ernie and asked, “What? Some… someone even you can’t
afford to offend?” With a nod, Ernie stood up. “Bingo. But somehow, he was not referring to you. I
guess your subordinate is the one who made a grave mistake. Otherwise, he would have killed you by
now..” Ernie analyzed while frowning. Because this morning, he had also encountered the same
situation. He got on that person’s nerves because of his subordinate’s mistakes… When Reuben heard
this, his body trembled. After a while, he profusely kowtowed to Ernie and pleaded, “Please! Save me! I
have no idea what my subordinates have done! Not a clue! Save me!” Frightened, he started to bawl.
Finally, Ernie got annoyed and kicked him. “I don’t really know what happened either. Let’s wait for him
to come. You’d better stay alert. Otherwise, you and your family will be done for, get it?” In horror,
Reuben nodded. “Got it! Got it..” Then, he knelt respectfully on the ground, waiting for that man.
However, there was a detail that further intensified his fear. From the corner of his eyes, he spotted that
Ernie didn’t dare to sit down since entering. Realizing this, Reuben couldn’t help but guess how
terrifying that big shot could be. Half an hour later, Alpha 1, who dressed in black, came in. Right away,
Ernie pulled a chair for Alpha 1 before Alpha 1 sat down and asked Reuben coldly, “So, you’re Reuben
Porter?” In an instant, an imposing aura emanated from Alpha l and pressured Reuben. With that,
Reuben sweated profusely and lowered his head. “Yes, you… You’re right, sir…” he answered
respectfully. Alpha 1 nodded and asked, “When someone from the Mooneys came here to collect the
two million you owed them, what did you do? Be honest, or this will be the last day you live!” When
Reuben heard Alpha l’s question, he was puzzled. Immediately, he kowtowed and said, “Sir, I didn’t see
anyone from the Mooneys today. I didn’t! Why don’t I pay you back now? I’ll pay you back tenfold.
Tenfold!”
After Alpha I waved his hand to stop Reuben from continuing, he leaned forward, and the cold aura on
his body intensified. “I’m not interested in what happened back then, but the Mooneys did send
someone today. Are you feigning ignorance?” Fearfully, Reuben shook his head. “I swear that I really
don’t know. I swear! Wait… can I ask my secretary?” For a while, Alpha I considered before he nodded.
Then, Reuben called in his beautiful secretary while kneeling. When the secretary saw Reuben
kneeling, she was also scared out of her wits. However, before she could respond, Reuben asked, “Did
anyone from the Mooneys come to ask for money today? Think carefully! Hurry, hurry! Tell me now!”
Reuben almost cried upon finishing his words… Anxiously, the secretary replied, “Some… someone
from the Mooneys did come, and it was a woman, but Isa Murray from the sales department chased
her out. I also heard that he slapped her… This… This is all I know…” “F*cking Isa! Where is he now?
Is he still in the company?” At this moment, Reuben was purple with rage. Thanks to this subordinate,
he almost lost his life. “He… He left. I… I don’t know where he is…” The secretary was so frightened
that she collapsed to the ground. Before Reuben could say anything, Alpha l waved his hand to stop
him and ordered Ernie, “Go catch him. I’ll give you half an hour. If I don’t see him by then, you shall
bear the consequences!” Right away, Ernie rushed outside and shouted at his men, “Tell everyone to
catch Isa Murray! That guy from the sales department! Bring him here! Now!” Ernie was quite efficient.
In just ten minutes or so, they caught a middle-aged man with ear studs on one of his ears. Needless to
say, that man was Isa. At this time, Isa was already quaking in his boots. When he was in a barbecue
restaurant near the company, hundreds of people suddenly encircled him and took him away. On the
road, he heard that Ernie Green was the one who wanted to catch him! “Mr. Green, I… I am Isa
Murray… but what… what have I done?” As soon as Isa entered the office, he begged for mercy.
“Break his legs…” Alpha l instructed faintly. The next moment, Ernie’s men directly broke Isa’s leg,
followed by Isa’s miserable howl. Just as Alpha 1 was about to continue speaking, Joseph called him.
After a short phone conversation, Alpha l got up from his seat and stood aside like Ernie. Seeing Alpha
1 stand up, Ernie asked, “Mr. King, is… is that lord coming?” Alpha 1 nodded and replied, “Yup, he will
be here soon…” Instantaneously, Ernie—the second big shot of Oplen-knelt on the ground. Even
though he dared to stand in the presence of Alpha 1, he had no guts to do so in front of the legendary
lord of the Dragon Temple.
As Ernie knelt, Isa and Reuben were shocked to the extreme. Only people like them who lived in Oplen
truly understood how terrifying Ernie was. But now, Ernie was kneeling! Kneeling!!! Just then, Joseph
came in, dressed in black and full of rage. Even Ernie’s men at the door collapsed directly to the
ground due to his overpowering dignity. With killing intent, Joseph sat on the chair and stared at the two
men on the ground. Ernie frowned and looked at Alpha 1, while Alpha 1 pointed to Isa and said, “Mr.
Dawson, this is Isa, the man who slapped Miss Mooney. I am preparing to snap his arms…” To that,
Joseph nodded and glowered at Isa. “So, you’re the one who slapped my wife? Hmm?” Panicked, Isa
kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, “My lord, I… I have no idea she is your wife! I really don’t know! Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Wait! It’s Reuben! He is the one who ordered me to do this. Whenever the Mooneys asked for money,
he would ask me to throw them out. Sir, please spare my life! Please…” Hearing Isa’s words, Reuben
was scared silly. What a joke! How would he dare to provoke a person that could make Ernie kneel to
his name? As Reuben didn’t dare to let Isa go on, he hurriedly snapped, “F*ck you! Don’t frame me! I
have no idea at all!” After that, he quickly begged for Joseph’s mercy, “Please find out the truth, my
lord. I really don’t know anything. I swear…” “Bam!” Before Reuben could finish his words, a loud noise
came from his side. Joseph blasted Isa with his palm through the air, causing Isa’s body to explode.
Blood splashed on Reuben’s face, and he peed out of fear.
Then, Joseph leaned forward and asked him, “So… you are Reuben Porter?”
