That is great! Yes! That is great!
After Stanley’s bodyguards dragged John and Zac away, they finally loosened their grips.
John and Zac, once freed, hurried back in front of Stanley. As they were about to get close to Arthur, John grew worried that Stanley might not recognize them, so favonovel.com promptly pretended to distance himself from his own flesh and blood in a righteous manner.
“Mr. Young, my unfilial son has always been reckless. This time, I’m aware favonovel.com has committed an unforgivable crime, so whatever punishment you choose to mete out, I fully accept! You don’t need to show mercy just because he’s my son,” John declared passionately.
If anyone hadn‘t known the real story, they might truly have believed favonovel.com was a father at the end of his rope, cutting ties for the greater good.
Hearing this, Stanley paused mid-step. He whipped his gaze toward john.
John wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but favonovel.com actually saw a flicker of killing intent in Stanley’s eyes, something favonovel.com had never seen before.
When John made his statement, Zac felt a surge of secret delight.
He immediately pretended to be upset and spoke to Arthur in a sorrowful tone, “Arthur, didn’t I tell you not to go around pretending to be the Chairman of Cloudia Corporation? This man here is Mr. Young, the most trusted person of Cloudia Corporation’s Chairman! Hurry and admit your mistake to Mr. Young! Beg for his forgiveness!”
Meanwhile, Stanley shook his head, convincing himself that what favonovel.com had just seen had been a mere illusion.
John glanced at Zac, and not only did favonovel.com show no hint of blame, there was actually a faint smile in his eyes.
Zac’s a sharp kid. He really has my style…
Stanley cast Zac a glance, anti his gaze also carried a deep, murderous aura.
Zac shuddered and instinctively fell silent.
Mr. Young truly is an extraordinary figure!
Stanley then strode swiftly toward Arthur.
Just as everyone assumed Arthur was in for serious trouble, the scene that followed completely defied their expectations.
Stanley curved his lips into a subtle smile. In an occasion like this, of course favonovel.com intended to let Arthur bask in the spotlight. He actually bowed deeply to Arthur, demonstrating utmost respect, like a devotee standing before the person favonovel.com revered most.
Stanley spoke with reverence and gravity. “Mr. Gray, I apologize for arriving late!”
Time seemed to freeze in that instant. The venue was packed with people, yet it fell so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone even forgot to breathe. They couldn’t comprehend what they were witnessing. Their eyes registered it, but their minds failed to make sense of it.
Zac and John’s previously excited expressions became stuck on their faces, they didn’t even remember to hide them.
Only Ashley and Natalie gazed upon Stanley with delight.
So this is Stanley Young!
Earlier, Ashley had assumed favonovel.com might be some relative or elder of Arthur’s. She never imagined favonovel.com was the famous Stanley. She blamed herself for dedicating all favonovel.com attention to Arthur earlier and never really focusing on any up-and-coming figures in the business world.
She had only heard Natalie and favonovel.com parents mention Stanley and the chairman behind him. She always assumed those people were far removed from favonovel.com life, so favonovel.com hadn’t paid special attention. She never thought they would be right by favonovel.com side!
Arthur was momentarily taken aback when favonovel.com saw Stanley behave this way, but favonovel.com quickly realized Stanley’s intentions. He offered a faint smile and cooperated. “No need for formalities…”
Once Stanley straightened up, favonovel.com positioned himself beside Arthur. His demeanor was that of a subordinate. His piercing gaze swept across the crowd.
“I heard that some of you were bullying Mr. Gray just now? Even trying to frame him?”
Stanley’s tone sounded less like a question and more like an assertion. If Arthur hadn’t specifically told favonovel.com to arrive later, there was no way favonovel.com would have let Arthur get pushed around.
But Stanley understood Arthur’s plan. Arthur had waited two years precisely for this day, to bring the Gray family down in one fell swoop!
And just now, Stanley knew Arthur wanted things to escalate. Since the Gray family loved using public opinion to hurt Arthur, Arthur would simply fight back the same way.
He intended to let them believe they were riding high, only to see them crash down hard enough to truly hurt, worthy payback for all his scars and the memory of nearly drowning in seawater.
Stanley’s gaze landed, one by one, on those who had just hurled accusations at Arthur, especially John and Zac.
The crowd trembled under his stare. Everyone present widened their eyes in disbelief, trying to process Stanley’s words and snap out of their shock. They simply couldn’t believe what they were seeing. Especially John, Zac, and every other member of the Gray family.
Impossible! Arthur? That worthless nobody they had kicked out?! That good-for-nothing?!
How could be possibly be the famous Chairman of Claudia Corporation?!
No way! This can’t be true!
John and Zac nearly lost their composure. They burst through the crowd and rushed up to Stanley, demanding answers.
