At the entrance of Oriental Tower on Meiwa Street in the South Precinct, the seal on the transparent
glass doors was unusually eye-catching.
As a number of onlookers watched them, a few staff members from relevant departments stood guard
with cold sweats.
What made them so hard-pressed were not the onlookers but the middle-aged man dressed in a suit
who stood not far away from the Tower’s entrance.
“Mr. Quincy…,” One of the middle-aged staff members said stutteringly, “the way we enforced the law
yesterday was in complete accordance with the relevant regulation systems…”
“I know.”
Henry Quincy was a lawyer in Paramount. He was good at taking relevant departments to court, and he
would win cases more than he lost them. He was listed as one of those who should not be provoked by
the heads of those departments.

at the corner of his mouth. “I could easily find three or four loopholes and sue you for abuse of power
when you sealed the Tower shut, but that’s not within my job scope.”
Hearing this, those staff members couldn’t help but let out a gentle sigh of relief. But what Henry
said next made their expressions change abruptly and made them anxious.
“But since I’m standing here now, don’t think that you can easily tear down the seal on the entrance of
this Tower,” Henry said bossily, sounding like a lawyer.
On one side, looking at the group of guys who were high and mighty yesterday but now trembling like
quails, Richard couldn’t help but swing his arm gently at Franklin. He said excitedly in a soft tone, “Mr.
Lynch, how much did you spend to hire a respected expert like Mr. Quincy?”
Franklin, who was feeling a little distracted, answered in a daze, “Mr. Ramirez, would you believe me if
I said I didn’t know myself?”
To be honest, he was very surprised when he saw Henry at first. He never imagined that the person
arranged by his son to deal with the Tower being sealed shut was a great lawyer that everyone in
Paramount knew.
The staff members from relevant departments, who were finding fault with them yesterday and
forcefully sealed his Tower shut, were now like grandchildren who were meeting their grandfather when
faced with Mr. Quincy. Seeing this, Franklin felt as if he drank a sweet, cold drink on a hot day. Not only
did it feel good, but it also tasted so sweet.
“You’re going to take down the seal just like that and not follow any procedures. What unpredictable
changes in policy. It’s utterly despicable!” Henry shook the file in his hand.
“Mr. Quincy…” One of the staff members there with the most work experience had a submissive but
bitter expression on his face.
They were actually feeling very resentful as well. They sealed the Tower shut the day before but were
ordered by their superiors early in the morning to unseal it quickly.
When they came here, they met with the great lawyer, Mr. Quincy, who was well-known in various

Other than giving these staff members a headache, it also made them anxious.
Seeing the great lawyer Mr. Quincy, it wasn’t just their superiors, but even the bosses of their superiors
admitted defeat under him.
What should we do? We’re just small fries. We can’t take it!
Seeing the panic-stricken faces of the staff members, Henry felt scorn and disdain.
He raised his head slightly, and his expression was serious. “I don’t want to make things difficult for
you. Call your superiors now and tell them that I’m here. I’m giving the person who ordered the Tower
to be sealed shut yesterday twenty minutes to come here right away.”
“This…” The most experienced staff member hesitated.
“You’re not going to call?” Henry’s expression turned cold. “Alright. Then wait for the subpoena from the
court.”
“No! We’llmake the call now!” Those staff members said in a rush, trying to stop him as they saw the
young assistant at the side take out a cell phone.
