After hearing Akio’s name, the crowd’s eyes twitched. They hurriedly looked at Harvey with odd looks on their faces.
Their gazes were as sharp as blades.
Cory and Walter’s expressions changed in an instant as well.
Naturally, they knew full well what that name meant for them.
There were just some things they couldn’t say.
Especially not out in public. If they did, it would be disastrous!
“What are you trying to do, Harvey?!”
Grandma York didn’t know what was going to happen, but she had a bad feeling.
“You’re not even from here, and yet you dare challenge me over and over again?!”
“You think I won’t kill you?!”
“Even if you’re Marcel’s son-in-law…”
“There’s no way I’ll let you become the young lord of the family!”
“An outsider like you is trying to climb the ranks of the family?!”
“Keep dreaming!”
“Mother, Harvey had no intention of being the young lord since the very beginning,” Marcel cut her off calmly.
“I didn’t tell him this was going to happen.”
“I thought that he was a suitable candidate , which was why I planned to give him the throne.”
Grandma York trembled after hearing those words. She was filled with utter disbelief.
She never expected that Marcel would rather force Harvey to become the young lord than to give Vince the position.
What exactly did her diligent and clever grandson Vince do to deserve this?
Without a second thought, Grandma York managed to calm herself.
“I have no idea why you decided to bring an Islander here, Marcel!”
“But you better deal with the situation right here, right now!”
“If you’re trying to put on another show…”
“Then don’t blame me for getting your father out!”
“Don’t you forget!”
“Your father is the true king here!”
Marcel took a deep breath.
“Mother, Akio was involved with what happened ten years ago!”
“The family was also involved with the incident as well!”
“If you still insist on letting Vince take the position of the young lord after hearing this, then so be it!”
Grandma York’s expression darkened in an instant.
She instinctively looked at Vince, who was showing a horrible expression, before nodding calmly.
Marcel took another deep breath before turning to Harvey with narrowed eyes.
“He told everything?”
Harvey smiled.
“Of course. He promised to tell everyone what happened as well.”
Harvey then looked at Selena. “Lady Judd. Today, in front of everyone here, I’ll give you the justice you deserve as well as the truth you’ve been longing for this whole time!”
Selena’s body trembled; she had basically pieced the entire incident together by now…
But at that very moment, she was still quite terrified.
That incident had always been a thorn inside her heart. She would always be awakened by that nightmare every time she went to sleep.
Clap, clap, clap!
Harvey clapped lightly and said calmly, “I’m sorry, everyone. I’m afraid I’ll have to take up some more of your time!”
