Chapter 156
Hector and Lambert had been on the battlefield before, and they were chiliarchs, in charge of
thousands of soldiers. They had a fierce aura and were extremely domineering
Their cold words were filled with killing intent, causing the Labenz family in the conference room to feel
a chill sweep over them. The Labnez felt as if they had fallen into an jrehouse and were trembling
“It’s all that damn Haylan Jaber’s fault. He screwed us over.”
“Ms. Labenz, where did Haylan Jaber go? Call him out immediately!”
“We can’t let a black sheep drag the entire family down”
Those on Philip’s ude all had gloomy expressions. They looked at Reign and requested her to hand
over Haylan. They wanted to push Haylan out for him to bear all the consequences.
Reign glanced at Philip and the others. With a calm expression, she said indifferently, “Everyone, have
you forgotten the Labenz family motto?”
“As long as someone is part of the Labenz family, and he is not at fault, the Labenz family must protect
him
“This is a house rule!”
When Philip heard that, he immediately caught a weak point in Reign’s words and refuted, “Reign, do
you think that Haylan is right in beating up Larry Muller? Are you going to sacrifice all of us for a mere
outsider?”
“As the CEO, you actually don’t care about the family’s interests at all. How can we trust you with the
company?”
“I think you can’t judge right from wrong and don’t understand the severity of this matter. You are not
suitable to be the
CEO
He was vice president and had always coveted the CEO position. He had always wanted to pull Reign
down from that position. When he saw an opportunity, he did not hesitate to fire at her
“Philip. I have my own way of doing things. It is not for you to judge and contest.”
Reign glanced at Philip. Then, she turned around, stared at Tristan, and said coldly. “Mr. Muller, I have
yet to take action against you, and here you are bending the truth. Well, we shall settle the score today”
“Reign, what do you mean?” Hector’s eyes turned cold.
Reign did not say anything. Instead, she turned to face Landon
Landon immediately switched on his computer and played a video,
In the video, Larry and Ron, amongst others, surrounded Haylan
Larry’s eyes were filled with confidence. As he drank and ate, he said coldly, “Haha, then I’ll get
someone to beat you until you’re half dead before getting them to chop off your hand. Now, make your
choice. Do you want to do it yourself, or do you want us to help you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA shiny knife was placed at Haylan’s feet.
Then, the story developed, followed by Larry’s roar. “All of you, listen up. Kill him!”
Finally, there was a video of Haylan beating up Larry.
When they saw Haylan slash a bloody wound on Larry’s chest, the expressions of everyone in the
Muller family became even more volemn and cold
That was especially true for May. When she saw her son being beaten up again, she was so agitated
that her eyes turned red on the spot. She roared angrily. “Reign, you bitch, what do you mean by
showing us this? I don’t care what you say. Hand over that bastard Haylan Jaber immediately!”
Reign continued to ignore May. Instead, she looked at Tristan and said slowly. “Mr. Muller, you should
have finished watching the video. This matter is not Haylan’s fault. Larry was the one who caused
trouble first!”
“Larry wanted to kill Haylan, so Haylan was forced to resist. It was self-defense!”
“In other words, Haylan is not at fault. At most, his defense was overboard!”
“Larry caused trouble first and was injured because he lost the fight. What right do you have to come to
me, ask for Haylan, and want us to take the responsibility
She paused for a moment, and her gaze became even colder as she said, “All right. Since you are all
here, let us make things clear. You have to bear the main responsibility for this matter!”
Philip and the higher-ups of the Labenz family were all stunned.
Is that how it works?
They had thought Reign might give in or find an excuse to escape the responsibility.
However, they never expected Reign to turn the tables and blame it on the Muller family.
That attitude was too unyielding!
Philip looked at Reign with a serious expression.
At that moment, he finally realized that Reign was not easy to deal with.
“Ms. Labenz, are you saying that Haylan was right to injure Larry?” Lambert said coldly.
“Mr. Katz, you’re changing the concept!”
Reign’s expression was calm. but her attitude was extremely unyielding. She said in a low voice. “From
this video, Haylan was surrounded by so many people, and Larry was clamoring to kill him. If it were
you, what would you do?”
Lambert’s gaze was cold, but he did not answer.
Reign sneered and looked at Hector. “Hector, you have been to the battlefield and are now a chiliarch,
a small commander. Tell me, what will you do when someone leads dozens of people to kill you?”
Hector was silent.
Reign looked at May and the angry Mullers and said coldly. “Everyone, let me tell you something. Larry
Muller led more than 80 people to kill the chief of the security department of our corporation!”
“Larry Muller is so lawless and overbearing. If Haylan was not such a good fighter, do you think he
would have survived?”
Larry Muller is so arrogant, domineering, and has done many bad deeds. I don’t need to show you how
many committed in the past, right?”
“Putting everything else aside, wasn’t Larry Muller overboard with that girl?”
crimes he’s
Even a discreet mention of that girl made all Mullers present raise their eyebrows, and their
expressions were very unnatural.
“Do not mention that bitch to me. She seduced Larry. Her jumping off the building and committing
suicide was deserving. What does it have to do with Larry?” May said coldly
“Is that so? May, do you really want me to lay the evidence on the table?” Reign’s eyes turned cold.
“You have evidence?” May was stunned.
“I never show up at battles unprepared,” Reign said.
Landon took out a flash drive and was about to plug it in.
Tristan’s expression darkened as he said, “Do not be in a hurry to dig up old scores. Let’s settle today’s
matter first. This time, Haylan injured Larry, and he has to pay the price!”
“Mr. Muller, have you forgotten that Larry started the fight? He is the main culprit!” Reign said.
“He harmed one of ours!” “Tristan’s eyes were cold as he gritted his teeth.
“Larry was in the wrong first!” Reign said in a low voice.
“No matter who was in the wrong first, Haylan beat up one of ours. That was a slap to the Muller
family’s face. He must pay the price!”
Tristan’s attitude was firm. He enunciated each word clearly, “I don’t care if I am right or wrong, nor do I
seek justice. I am here to take revenge!”
“So, Reign, do not talk to me about those principles and morals.”
“Even if you use the evidence to send Larry to jail, I have to get back at you today”
“There are only two choices in front of you now. One, hand over Haylan Jaber, and let us deal with
him!”
“Two, we will declare war against the Labenz family. We will not rest until one of us dies!”
His words were powerful, domineering, and unreasonable.
Reign’s expression changed.
She originally wanted to use the law and facts to persuade the Muller family to retreat. But Tristan was
not playing along. He was just rude and unreasonable, making her not know what to say.
Hector sneered and did not say anything. Instead, he took out his phone and made a call.
“Hand over Haylan Jaber!”
“Hand over Havlan Jaberl
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter the call was made, a loul rear sounded at the entrance of the Mapleture Group
The expressions of Reign, Philip, and the others changed. They immediately walked to the window of
the conference room and looked down
Theur pupils constricted vidently, and their expressions were extremely ugly
There were no less than five hundred people who worked for the Muller family gathered downstairs
Their slogans were mulom, and their voices were like thunder that rullest endlessly
“The Mullers are serious”
“There are more than live hundred people. If a light really starts, the consequences will be
unimaginable. Not to mention whether we can defeat them, even if we win, it will affect our company’s
share price”
“Reign, stop protecting that bastard. Hurry up and hand over Haylan Jaber!”
Philip and the others all looked at Reign, their gaze anxious and pressing
Reign clenched her lists with an ugly expression.
The army was at the foot of the city!
She did not expect Tristan and the others to really mobilize so many people, bringing live hundred to
the scene.
Moreover, judging from the looks of Tristan, Hector, and the others, they were really ready to get
physical the moment talking fails
What should she do?
Reign gritted her teeth and felt helpless.
“Reign, we won’t make things diflicult for the Labenz Lamily. You should hand over Haylan Jaber.”
Tristan’s gaze was cold as he said aggressively, “You only have these two choices. I will give you one
last minute to make a decision. If Haylan Jaber does not appear after one minute, do not blame me for
being rude!”
Keign looked at him and gritted her teeth. Her expression became even uglier as a strong sense of
grievance and unwillingness surged in her heart.
They were at her doorstep!
If they fought head-on, both families would suffer.
If she did not fight head-on and handed over Haylan Jaber, her capability and dominance in the Labenz
family would be questioned.
No matter what she did, there was only a dead end in front of her!
There was no way she could reason with people who would rather settle things their way with brute
force.
Just as Reign did not know how to choose, a cold voice sounded. “You Mullers are so strange. Why do
you always like to force people to make choices?”
As that voice sounded, Haylan walked in with a chilly gaze and said domineeringly, “I choose the third
option. I will beat all of you up and throw you out!”
