355 Forced to Yield
"Now that's it. Now then, let's talk about compensation for the actions that you have taken. You have to make sure that you pay enough price for the damage that you have caused the two of us."
The conference room suddenly fell silent. Both Henry and Owen stared at Jack with widened eyes filled with disbelief. They couldn't believe that Jack was not satisfied with the fact that he had already made them suffer innumerable losses, but he was also asking for compensation from them?
"Bullsh*t! This is just enough! I have already had enough of your tyranny. You have already made my family suffer losses that cannot be recovered easily. And other than that, you are trying to make the agreement that had been made several decades ago to be broken. Now you are trying to ask for compensation from me? What a nice dream!" Henry shouted angrily.
At this moment, he didn't care about the background that Jack possessed. It was already enough that they had already suffered numerous losses.
And not long ago, he had already been thinking about changing the target. It was not a must for Eugene to marry Celine. There were several other girls present in the Gravy family.
For that reason, even though it would not be the exact agreement that had been made several decades ago, at least, part of the agreement would have been fulfilled.
But now, Jack was actually asking for compensation from them. This was something that Henry wasn't going to tolerate.
"It might be a dream, but I am sure that it won't be very long before it suddenly becomes a reality. I have already been lenient on your families these past few days. Or do you think that the losses that you have encountered are the limits of my capabilities?" Jack asked with a smile on his face.
Henry and Owen frowned. At the same time, they couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat. Could it be true that Henry was actually playing with them all this while?
Just thinking of the fact that, if this was not Jack's full capabilities, and it had already made them helpless, then what about his full capabilities? They swallowed their saliva hard, just as they thought about what was to happen next.
"Alright then. The reason as to why I called all of you here was simply because I wanted to demand for compensation from you. But it seems that you are not willing to cooperate. For that reason, I hope that you don't regret your decisions." Jack said as he got onto his feet.
After that, he left the conference room. He didn't care about the two families, and had already been lenient on them despite their actions. But now, he wasn't going to hold back at all.
"Father, what is the matter now? Can't you just take care of such a piece of trash easily? I have already done my investigation about him, and I have found out that he doesn't have any important background." At this moment, Eugene finally spoke.
"Shut up already. What do you know? Had you been behaving well, perhaps there would have been several good girls that would have been willing to marry you easily. But what about now? You have been nothing but a hedonistic, stupid young master." Henry said as he looked at Eugene.
After taking a deep breath, he looked at Owen and asked, "What do you think we should do now? We cannot let this go on."
Owen had already begun thinking of countermeasures. But all this time, he hadn't found anything that could be used to deal with a person that they didn't even know much about.
The piece of information that they had just gotten was that, he was actually the boss of the Glaze hotel. And what was the Glaze hotel? This was the biggest hotel present in the country, and it was monopolizing the whole industry.
In the country, there were several hidden dragons and tigers. For the Glaze hotel to be able to monopolize the entire industry, it was obvious that the means that they had utilized could not be countered by any of these hidden dragons and tigers.
And since that was the case, it was an obvious sign that there was no way that the Gravy family could deal with the one that had been able to conquer the whole industry despite the competition that they had faced.
"I don't think we can do anything as of now. We have to do a lot of investigation before finally deciding on what to do." Owen replied after a moment of thought.
At the same time, he had already begun having a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that they had made the wrong decision? But, there was no way that they were going to agree for someone to easily step on their heads. Where was the reputation of their families going to go to?
Henry thought that what Owen said made sense. For that reason, he didn't say anything and decided to leave alongside Eugene and the person that he had brought with him.
…
After Jack left the conference room, he decided to finally take action. He had already been holding back his anger due to the attempted kidnappings and attempted murders.
Previously, the only reason as to why he had tried talking to these people and demand for compensation was simply because, although it was true that Celine had not grown up in the main Gravy family, they were still related by blood.
So, he had thought that perhaps they might be reasonable enough, and he might show them mercy for Celine's sake. But in the end, it turned out that he had met with a group that didn't know how to be humble.
This time, since they were aiming on hurting Celine, and they had refused to acknowledge their mistakes, then there was nothing else that he could do other than take action.
So, while he was waiting for the end of the month to arrive, the Gravy family and the Smith family suddenly found out that everything had already began getting even worse.
Now, it was not just a matter of their businesses going down due to failed cooperation, but now, even the darkest secrets that they had been hiding had begun being revealed.
And not just that, even the secrets that these two families had been hiding were suddenly in the spotlight. And with that, the reputation of the two families immediately began plummeting.
What followed next was that, the small businesses that they owned suddenly began going bankrupt. They lost customers, they lost the trust of the public, and even the government was forced to get involved.
Several members of the two families were arrested one after the other. Those that had committed crimes like raping, coercion, murder and so on were taken away and were supposed to face their charges in courts.
The two families attempted to use their connections that they possessed in the government, but none of them worked. These government institutions that had always been loose for them, at suddenly become strict.
It didn't matter what It was that they tried, even those members of the government that had been sucking to them previously, had suddenly changed their attitudes.
And in fact, it seemed that these government officials that were previously their friends, had suddenly become hostile to them. Although they were trying to hide it, the two families could pick it up.
It was only at this moment That the two families finally realized the horror of Jack. With immediate effect, they tried to contact Jack, so that they could find out methods that they could use to redeem themselves.
Now, they no longer cared about the reputation of their families. What reputation was there for them to save, considering that all the atrocities that they had committed had been revealed to the public.
With this blow that they had received, it was going to be a very difficult task for them to be able to get back on their feet.
…
"What is it now?" Jack asked as he looked at Owen who was in front of him. This guy had actually used several means, and even utilized Bruce to make sure that the two of them met.
Jack previously had no intention of meeting this old man once again. After all, he had already come to a decision, and that was the reason as to why he had to make sure that everything was done as he intended.
"Hehe, can you give our family a pardon? You know, you are now our in-law, so, why not give us a chance?" Owen smiled as he said shamelessly.
It wasn't long ago that he was against the fact that Jack and Celine were engaged, ruining the agreement that they had already formed with the Smith family.
But now, after experiencing the power that Jack possessed, Owen thought that it wasn't a bad thing to have Jack as an in-law. It didn't matter if the Smith family was against it. After all, even if they were against it, what were they going to do?
"I already gave you a chance but you refused to take it. Since I have already made a decision, don't expect me to change it." Jack said coldly.
Owen still continued to force a smile on his face, as he looked at Bruce who was seated next to Jack.
Reading the situation, Bruce could only sigh to himself. Although it was true that he had been away from home for over two decades, but when he was there, the family always treated him well. But of course, this only applied to the people that cared about him.
And, next to take the line of the family head was his elder brother. Although the relationship between the two of them had been slightly strained due to the matter concerning Celine's marriage, Bruce didn't want to completely abolish the relationship between the two of them.
He looked at Jack and asked, "Jack, can you give them a chance? I won't ask for much from you, but just letting them be the way they are now. You can take this as doing a favor to your father-in-law."
