“Elijah Wilson, I came all this way to heal your legs, and you want to rob me instead. Isn’t that ungrateful of you? You kept saying you owed me a favor, but you haven’t repaid it yet,” Robin Bailey said slowly, placing his hand on Elijah Wilson’s shoulder.
Elijah Wilson was dumbfounded. “How was I supposed to know you were Kisia’s number one War God? You should have told me earlier. If you had, I wouldn’t have tried to rob you. But Elijah Wilson didn’t dare say it out loud. However, as someone with a reputation, he quickly regained his composure and adjusted his glasses. “This time, it was my mistake, but War God, I haven’t committed a grave offense like the Harding family. I don’t deserve to die. I beg you, War God, spare my life for the sake of my Wilson family’s face.”
“Elijah Wilson, you claim you haven’t committed a grave offense like the Harding family? If that’s the case, what will you do once you have me under your control? Will you try to kill me? We are both intelligent people, so let’s not beat around the bush. I can spare your life, but I want something in return,” Robin Bailey said, looking down on Elijah Wilson.
“What?” Elijah Wilson looked pale upon hearing this. He knew exactly what Robin Bailey was referring to-his legs. It was Robin Bailey who had restored them, and now he wanted to take them back!
This… How could this be?
He had worked so hard to be able to stand again.
“War God!” Elijah Wilson looked up at Robin Bailey, trembling. Finally, he stuttered, “War God, what do you want?”
“I want you to submit to me,” Robin Bailey said, standing beside Elijah Wilson.
“What!” Elijah Wilson had prepared himself to pay a great price, but at this moment, hearing this request, he was stunned. Who was he? He was the crown prince of the Wilson family. How could he submit to someone else? It was against the dignity of the Wilson family, and it would bring shame upon him!
“Elijah Wilson, don’t forget that your legs have been restored. You are the crown prince of the Wilson family. Without your recovery, you would be nothing more than an abandoned child sent to the border. Are you content with being a bully in this small border region? Think about it,” Robin Bailey said, squatting down and looking at Elijah Wilson.
Robin Bailey’s words touched something deep within Elijah Wilson’s heart. Yes, he had never been content. He was extremely dissatisfied. He, the crown prince of the Wilson family, had been sent here. Without the recovery of his legs, he would be just a castaway.
He couldn’t even be considered a significant figure.
“If you submit to me, I promise to provide you with the necessary resources to help you ascend to the position of the Wilson family’s head, not just as a crown prince. My patience is limited, so whether you are a worm or a dragon, I’ll give you five minutes to consider,” Robin Bailey said, patting Elijah Wilson’s shoulder and then giving him five minutes.
After five minutes, Elijah Wilson raised his bloodshot eyes and stared straight at Robin Bailey. “Will you keep your word?”
“I will,” Robin Bailey said confidently, with his hands folded behind his back.
“My lord!” Finally, Elijah Wilson was forced to say those two words. He, a proud man, lowered his arrogant head. He did so not only because he didn’t want to spend his whole life in a wheelchair but also because he had ambitions. He didn’t want to remain in this small border region for the rest of his life. He had unfinished business!
“Don’t be so unwilling. Dylan Harding was called the same,” Robin Bailey whispered into Elijah Wilson’s ear.
Elijah Wilson’s pupils contracted. Finally, he understood why the Harding family had been destroyed. It turned out that the Harding family had a traitor, and it was the first heir who betrayed them. That’s why Dylan Harding had recommended Robin Bailey. Elijah Wilson had thought they were friends or subordinates, but he hadn’t expected that Dylan Harding, the first heir of the Harding family, was actually working under Robin Bailey.
With this realization, he felt somewhat relieved.
Elijah Wilson was no ordinary person. He knew how to keep secrets. So Robin Bailey told him about Dylan Harding’s situation, not only to establish trust but also for their future cooperation. Robin Bailey wasn’t a foolish person; he knew there were many who wanted to harm him, so the more cards he held, the better.
Controlled power, the more, the better.
“Don’t worry, as long as you don’t make any big mistakes, I won’t harm the Wilson family. Get up,” Robin Bailey assured Elijah Wilson, alleviating some of his worries. He didn’t want Elijah Wilson to suffer the same fate as the Harding family, being wiped out. Robin Bailey hadn’t become so heartless as to do that. The Harding family was destroyed because they made a grave error.
Colluding with other clans is a serious crime in any era.
“Yes,” Elijah Wilson stood up and replied.
His transformation was quite swift. Robin Bailey glanced at him and thought to himself. Then he looked at the people Elijah Wilson had brought and asked, “Are these people witnesses to your submission to me and your request for me to help you eliminate your enemies?”
This kind of matter is best kept in secret.
After all, if the news were to spread, the Wilson family would never allow Elijah Wilson to become the heir. They might even expel him from the Wilson family.
“Leave this matter to me; I have a way,” Elijah Wilson said.
“Good. I’ll give you the Harding family’s mansion as your first gift. There should be things you want inside,” Robin Bailey said slowly.
Inside, there was not only money but also various industries, treasures, and more. The Harding family was quite substantial.
“Yes,” Elijah Wilson nodded.
Afterward, Robin Bailey left.
Elijah Wilson reverted to his previous domineering CEO appearance, but there was a hint of exhaustion in his eyes. In an instant, he went from being the crown prince of the Wilson family to being a subordinate of Kisia’s number one War God.
However, there were benefits to be had, such as the remnants of the Harding family.
Then, Elijah Wilson looked at his own people.
“Young master, I haven’t heard anything.”
“Me neither.”
Those people watched the scene with extreme trepidation, afraid that Elijah Wilson would settle accounts with them.
In reality, Elijah Wilson did have that intention.
“Bob, kill them all,” Elijah Wilson commanded.
“No.”
“Don’t do it!”
The crowd screamed and begged for mercy, but in the end, Elijah Wilson showed no trace of compassion. He even had blood on his face, which he wiped away with a tissue.
“Young master, they’re all dead,” Bob spoke up.
“You don’t deserve to witness my weak side.”
Elijah Wilson said coldly.
As for Bob, he was sent by his mother and was absolutely trustworthy. While his father might have other sons, his mother only had him. That’s why Bob was the person he trusted the most now.
As for these so-called backup plans, he could naturally continue to cultivate them, with the resources left behind by the Harding family and the assistance of Kisia, the number one War God. In fact, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to claim the position of the head of the Wilson family.
Thinking this way, it didn’t seem so bad to be under the command of Kisia, the number one War God. It was just a reversal of his previous status.
“Let’s go, let’s go get the things,” Elijah Wilson said.
With that, Elijah Wilson took Bob and went to the Harding family to retrieve the remaining items.
Meanwhile, as things were being resolved here, there was also turmoil happening in the city of Bianhai.
The military region had been mobilized, initially to suppress the assassins who had escaped from the Braton family. It was originally a small force, but when they launched the operation, the remaining forces of the Bianhai Military Region were also mobilized, targeting the Tang family and the Beckett family.
Suppressing the Tang family and the Beckett family!
