Translator: 549690339
After the Leopold family meeting, various groups went back to their own businesses.
Old Master of Leopold Family said in passing, “Let those with the ability display their Divine Skills. Everyone is free to act, but under the condition that the family interests must not be harmed.”
Otherwise, be expelled from the Leopold Family!
At such a time, whoever makes the first move will undoubtedly have the upper hand.
Brayden Leopold had already been eliminated. In the first step of the battle for succession, he had already fallen behind.
The rest of the branches were discussing how to rescue Fernando Leopold.
Meanwhile, the Leopolds were also actively negotiating with the Potter Family.
The videos and photos in Stanislaus Potter’s hands had nearly sealed the deal.
As long as the Leopolds were not fools, they wouldn’t attempt to deny it.
Not only would that bring no benefits, but it would also enrage the Potter Family.
But in this period, other members of the Leopold Family could make the most of Divine Skills, unscrupulously working to rescue their own.
After leaving the Leopold residence, a man took out his phone, looked around to see that no one was there, and quietly made a call.
“It’s just as you predicted; Brayden Leopold has been kicked out of the running. The rest of the Leopolds are rolling up their sleeves, ready to make their move to save him!”
Whatever the person on the other end of the line said made the man’s face change dramatically.
“Can we really do this… Is this going to work?”
His tone carried a hint of panic, even filled with fear.
“Alright! I will carry it out to the letter, don’t worry!”
The man wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling his hands trembling.
After taking a deep breath, he headed back towards the gate of the Leopold’s villa.
“Young Master Leopold.”
As he arrived at the villa’s gate, he saw a downhearted Brayden Leopold.
“Black Dog, what do you want?”
He had thought he would be the first to act, getting a step ahead of everyone
But who could have known he would stumble right out of the gate and begin at a disadvantage?
Not only did he fail to gain the upper hand, but he was also out of the game early!
“Young Master Leopold, it’s not convenient to speak here. Can we talk in the car for a moment?”
Black Dog asked cautiously.
Although he was previously an employee of Atlas Leopold, he had a certain standing in the Leopold Family.
Especially after Bane Cook kidnapped and nearly beat him to death, the Leopolds trusted him even more.
But faced with the unpredictable Brayden Leopold, Black Dog was still somewhat frightened.
After all, the young master was quite agitated at the moment.
“Fine! What are you up to!”
Although Brayden Leopold wanted to lose his temper, on further thought, he realized that Black Dog must have his reasons for acting this way.
Stepping into his imported Land Rover, Brayden Leopold shut the car door and asked irritably, “Out with it, what is it?”
He was still seething with anger and had no patience for trivial matters.
If Black Dog brought up something trivial, Brayden Leopold really would lose his temper.
After all, Black Dog was just a servant.
“Young master, the old master’s words today have basically sentenced you to death. I just don’t know what plans you have for the future?”
Black Dog asked tentatively.
This matter was sensitive, and one misstep could mean life or death.
Brayden Leopold was still a member of the Leopold Family, directing him to harm the family interests might result in his own tragic demise.
In other words, this was an opportunity for Brayden Leopold to weed out the traitors and earn credit for the family.
Sure enough, upon hearing Black Dog’s words, Brayden Leopold asked with some alertness, “What are you implying?
At such a critical moment, the fact that Black Dog spoke these words was clearly loaded with deeper meaning.
Brayden Leopold was no fool; besides Atlas Leopold, he was one of the more capable members of the Leopold Family.
He would not naively believe that Black Dog had come without an ulterior motive.
Anyone who had attained such a position in the Leopold Family was no fool!
“I have an idea that could restore Young Master to the position of heir!” Black Dog said, blinking.
After uttering those words, he swallowed his saliva because what came next was the main event.
Whether he could walk away alive from this Land Rover depended on what Brayden Leopold was thinking.
“Speak!”
Upon hearing Black Dog’s words, Brayden Leopold squinted his eyes, and his entire demeanor became vigilant.
With Atlas Leopold’s fall, Black Dog naturally lost his standing, so it made sense for him to now come to offer his allegiance to Brayden.
But for a servant to claim he could assure a return to the struggle for the heir position was something that warranted suspicion.
Those were words spoken from the Old Master of the Leopold Family during the family meeting, tantamount to a decree!
To expect Whitley Leopold to take back his words was like waiting for the sun to rise from the west.
Did Black Dog have that kind of ability?
When he followed Atlas Leopold, he indeed proved to be a valuable assistant, but he had never been this formidable.
“You’d better not be toying with me!”
Brayden Leopold reiterated, his tone very stern.
What remained unspoken was that if Black Dog failed to satisfy him, he would not get off easily today.
“Young Master, if you could rescue Fernando Leopold before anyone else, wouldn’t the Old Mr. Leopold look at you in a new light?”
Black Dog cautiously suggested.
“Nonsense! I’m already unable to intervene in the affairs of the Leopold Family; if I could, why would I sit by idly? Those incompetents, who among them can deal with matters as efficiently as I?”
Brayden Leopold spoke with bottled -up frustration and rage.
This should have been his moment to shine.
Even though Atlas Leopold had secured his position in recent years, Brayden had not been idle.
He had invested heavily in training his own bodyguards and had amassed a group of formidable individuals around him.
Now with such strength at his disposal, to be kept from using it was frustrating.
But the Old Master’s word was final, and his disapproval made no difference!
Now, what Black Dog had said was no different from nonsense!
“Young Master, don’t be hasty. If you rescue him directly, it might seem too easy. After the last failure, though no one says it aloud, everyone in the Leopold Family knows Julius Reed is not to be trifled with,” Black Dog explained.
“Therefore, for this rescue mission, everyone will certainly give their all!”
“I’m well aware of that! Whoever fails will suffer; even if they are not ousted like me, their fate would not be much better,” Brayden Leopold said with deep resentment.
“That’s right! After their failure, you could then rescue Old Mr. Leopold. What do you think Whitley Leopold’s opinion of you would be then? He might even take back his word and restore his confidence in you!”
Black Dog whispered cautiously, ‘Young Master, a great man should not be bound by trivialities!”
“What do you mean!”
Brayden Leopold’s eyes narrowed as he confronted Black Dog, “Are you suggesting that I should strike against our own Leopold Family members?”
If the Leopold Family were to employ their full strength, extricating someone from the Potter Family employees would not be difficult.
By saying this, Black Dog implied only one possibility: that Brayden should obstruct them!
“The Old Master’s words have just been spoken, and now you betray us, trying to sow discord within our Leopold Family?”
He pulled a dart from his waistband and pressed it hard against Black Dog’s head: “Speak! Who sent you here!”
“Young Master, I, Black Dog, have only your best interests in mind! With Young Master Atlas toppled, I had to align myself with someone! Of all the young masters, I believe it is you who could truly make great things happen,” Black Dog quivered yet did not give in..
