Chapter 27
Harrison's face twisted into a deeper frown. IsDonald not done? What's going to happen next?
Little did he know he would find out soon enough.
Harrison's phone rang again. This time, it was a call from his secretary, who also happened to be his dad's mistress. “Harry, things are not good. The authorities found out about the fake vaccines and have arrested your father, the chairman. They said he'll possibly suffer a death penalty!”
Then, another call came in. “Mr. Queen, bad news. The capital flow to Pollerton Pharma had gotten severed. All the factories have ceased operation!”
Even his grandfather called again. “Harrison, it's over for the Queen family. You better apologize to whoever you offended now or leave the city immediately to save yourself.” “Grandpa, it's too late now. The man I offended is right in front of me,” replied
Harrison. The glow in his eyes faded at that moment.
“I see. Okay, t-they're here to arrest me.” As soon as Louis finished his sentence, it was as though he had lost all of his strength, and he hung up.
Another call came in before Harrison could put away his phone. He straightened his back immediately because it was a call from the big shot behind Pollerton General Hospital, Johnny Green. “Hello, Mr. Green.”
“Harrison, I told your father last night to advise you to laying low for a few days. So, what on earth is happening now? I can't even save myself anymore. It seems your family will undoubtedly perish today...” said Johnny with weariness in his voice.
The call soon ended after that.
Not a word came from Harrison.
It was as though all his wealth and pride had gotten trampled on like they were nothing. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
He raised his trembling right hand and saw that only five minutes had passed since
Donald threatened him.
He could not believe it.
Five minutes was all it took to destroy Pollerton Pharma which was worth billions.
“Mr. Campbell, please, Donald. I was wrong. I really am. Please spare my family.
I won't ever touch your wife again.” Harrison got on his knees in front of Donald and begged with tears on his face.
It was then that Donald got up and looked down at the former coldly. “You shouldn't have touched Jennifer in the first place.”
Harrison kept begging and slamming his head on the ground that a bump formed on his forehead.
However, it was as though he did not feel it at all as he continued, “It's my fault. I know I've made a grave mistake. Please spare us. I'll be your servant from here on. I beg you.
“One should pay for their vile actions, don't you agree?” Donald questioned softly.
That filled Harrison's eyes with horror. He's
going to kill me I Donald's going to kill me I
He suddenly felt as though his body had gotten shrouded in a dark, menacing shadow.
Then, a middle-aged man in a chef's uniform and a tall white hat jumped in from the window with a butcher's knife in hand.
It was Tyson from Mount Sea Sect.
“Lord Campbell,” Tyson greeted as he knelt on the floor.
Harrison wet his pants at the sight of that.
After all, everyone knew of Tyson.
The North Prince, Tyson Quirk, the South Prince, Zayne Yates, the East Prince, Lucas Albee, the West Prince, Jim Woolf, and the Center Prince, Charles Langford. These were the most powerful people in Pollerton.
Even though Tyson's organization, Mount Sea Sect, was not as powerful as Blade Alliance, he never once feared the latter organization's leader, Mark.
Tyson had retired for a long time and rarely appeared in the public's eyes. So, his appearance now baffled Harrison, whose pupils shrank as he broke out in cold sweat.
Harrison could not believe that Tyson would respectfully address Donald as “Lord Campbell.”
No one would dare call themselves Lord Campbell! That person is none other than the man who had fought in the Holy War nine years ago and single-handedly achieved victory!
“Y-You're Lord Campbell?” Harrison felt as though his mind exploded, and he lost his ability to think.
He could not believe that the 27-year-old man standing before him was the world-renowned and invincible figure, Lord Campbell.
How did I manage to offend Lord Campbell?
Yet, he soon realized something even more terrifying.
Lord Campbell hid away from the world for so many years. Now that he has revealed himself before me, I know his identity. Does that mean he's going to kill me? Crud! I even tried to lay hands on his woman!
He drew a sharp breath at that thought.
“Lord Campbell, please spare me. I beg you!” Harrison got down on his knees again and knocked his head on the ground, pleading for mercy.
