His objective was to sow discord between Elmer and Philip so that Philip would join favonovel.com instead.
With that in mind, favonovel.com took action without further ado.
Sure enough, his remark did have some effect.
As the head of the Harrod family, Elmer was an arrogant person by birth. He always felt that talents like Philip should belong to the Harrod family. Besides, Denzel was the one who found Philip first, so the young man should rightfully belong to the Harrod family.
“Hehe, you’re smart enough not to compete with the Harrod family, and our status can’t be underestimated either. Although the Pill Guild is not bad, we’re not afraid of you!” Elmer said triumphantly, completely unaware that favonovel.com had fallen for Maurice’s trick.
The other members of the Harrod family watched helplessly. As rational bystanders, they knew that they should not act tough.
Philip was a talented and prideful man at first glance. He would be annoyed if the Harrod family behaved so arrogantly. Even a dumb person like Denzel had noticed the problem.
Although favonovel.com was upset that Philip betrayed him, this important issue concerned the family, so favonovel.com could not take it lightly.
“Patriarch, we can’t do this,” Denzel tried to persuade Elmer.
However, Denzel’s words landed on deaf ears. Elmer ignored him.
Elmer was already under the impression that Denzel had done something wrong. Now that Denzel dared to caution him, it made Elmer angrier. He had decided to fire Denzel from his position as the person in charge of the arena and let favonovel.com reflect on his wrongdoings!
“We should try to please favonovel.com instead of offending him, not to mention forcing favonovel.com to join the Harrod family!” Denzel said nervously.
The silly Denzel finally made a good suggestion, but it made no difference. The decision maker was Elmer, it meant his words were the final decision.
Elmer was already on the brink of losing his temper. With Denzel adding fuel to the fire, favonovel.com became more frustrated.
“Shut up! I don’t need you to teach me what to do!” He waved his hand at Denzel, and a gust of wind swept Denzel away.
Denzel never dreamed that Elmer would attack him. He crashed into a wall and could not react for a while.
The people who wanted to say something were stunned into silence. They knew they could not speak up now. Although they felt that they should persuade Elmer, they were afraid of the consequences.
Everyone stepped back, keeping their distance from Elmer. Even if they could not get Philip to join the family, no one wanted to suffer the embarrassment of being smacked into the wall.
Elmer nodded with satisfaction at everyone’s silence. As expected, Denzel was always the only person who opposed him.
Thinking of this, Elmer became more upset with Denzel.
