Chapter 5989
This was the first time Longmen had ever encountered something like this.
Harvey could tell this was the Smalt Sect’s doing. At the same time, he was almost sure that Amos started this.
After all, things could be fabricated both ways.
Those who’d do something like this would always prefer to make it seem like they didn’t.
On the one hand, Amos could complete his goal flawlessly. On the other hand, he could use the opportunity to shift the blame to Stefan.
Judging from this, Neil should be able to figure out the truth behind his daughter’s injuries.
If not, Amos wouldn’t have taken action so quickly.
Harvey ignored the commotion in front of him, and went to the side of the building according to Yasmin’s instructions.
After making a call for a moment, Harvey saw Ernie sneaking out through a door crack. He started to panic, as if he was guilty of something, but immediately let out a sigh of relief after seeing Harvey’s face.
“Sir York! Why are you here?” he asked instinctively.
“You’re here too?” Harvey didn’t think that Ernie would show up here as well.
“Haven’t we already figured out the truth of Quincy’s attack? What’s with all the commotion?”
Ernie chuckled bitterly.
“Things aren’t that simple, Sir York.
“Since the branch leader’s bedridden all year round, the outskirts’ branch isn’t really stable.
“A few vice branch leaders had been trying to take his position, but nobody dared take action because of Mrs. Yasmin.
“But what happened to Quincy gave these people a chance.
“Despite what you just saw, that’s just the pressure from outside forces. Actual trouble comes from inside the branch.”
Harvey finally realized something; no wonder Yasmin only asked him to lend his support without explaining anything.
After all, he was Longmen’s young master. He had the final say whether someone could become the branch leader or not.
“These vice branch leaders must’ve found people to support their cause, no?” Harvey asked after a moment.
Without any support, these people wouldn’t dare cause trouble in the first place.
“Probably.” Ernie chuckled bitterly again. “I even pulled out the Surrey family’s authority just to help Mrs. Yasmin . But these people aren’t scared at all!”
Harvey nodded before clapping.
“Lead the way. Let’s see what’s going on inside.”
In the branch leader’s office, Kali, dressed in her tracksuit, was seen sitting in front of a man in a black robe. Hot tea was placed in front of the two. Tall and strong bodyguards stood behind them.
The mood didn’t seem as fine as it should’ve been; the two must’ve talked it out, but they weren’t on good terms.
