Chapter 561

Meanwhile, at the Grants' mansion, Tyler sat in the study, quietly poring

over

war strategy books. He gave each and every word on the page his undivided

attention.

Suddenly, there was a series of knocks on the door.

"What is it?" Tyler asked without turning his head.

"Mr. Grant, the big day has arrived, We should head out," an elderly voic

e said from outside the door

Tyler set the book down and got to his feet. After straightening his clot

hes, he opened the door and walked out. An aged servant stood outside the

door, waiting for him with his head bowed.

"How are the Harmons reacting?" Tyler asked with an indifferent look.

"The Harmons haven't started preparing for the wedding yet. Instead, they

're throwing a birthday party," the man replied.

"Birthday party?" Tyler's mouth twitched. "Is that supposed to put pressu

re on me? How amusing."

"Mr. Grant, should we fetch the bride another day?" the man asked tentati

vely.

"Since the engagement is today, it can't be changed. We'll follow the sch

edule as planned," Tyler said coolly. "Also, find me a coffin and bring i

t straight to the Harmons' home."

"A coffin?" The man was momentarily taken aback. "Mr. Grant, what do you

want to do with that?"

Weren't they going to pick up the bride? What did the coffin have to do w

ith it?

"The wedding carriage is to escort the bride, while the coffin

is for bodies. If the Harmon family agrees to the marriage, I'll naturall

y use the carriage. If they don't, then I'll make them lay in the coffin,

" Tyler said apathetically.

Upon hearing that, the man couldn't help but shudder. He

knew that his master was always a man of his word. If the Harmon family d

idn't know what was good for them, they might end up completely destroyed

!

"Why are you still standing there? Go do as I say." Tyler gave him a side

long glance.

"Yes." Not daring to hesitate, the man immediately left.

"Hmph, you want to play games with me? Well, let's see whether you can ho

ld off my army." Tyler laughed coldly. He didn't mind the Harmons playing

tricks, but in the face of absolute power, any wile would be for naught.

At that moment, the Harmon estate was still bustling with excitement. Loo

king across the room, distinguished guests filled the seats. It was

a gathering

of the exalted; the wealthy and powerful exchanged toasts and chatted amo

ng themselves. Meanwhile, Dustin sat quietly in a corner, looking like an

outsider.

In contrast, Gordon, who was sitting at the

other table, wouldn't stop greeting people.

"Well, if it isn't Mr. Bolls! What a pleasure to see you!"

"Oh, Ms. Pickens, you're here too. My father talks a lot about you."

"Hahaha, Mr. Solinsky, what a surprise to run into you here. It must be f

ate. Let's grab a meal together sometime."

Gordon stood, chatting and laughing with all the guests, showcasing his e

xtensive network.

"Gordon, was that Mr. Bolls, the famous jewel tycoon?" Zeke couldn't help

but ask, curious.

"That's right. Mr. Bolls has a net worth of several billions of dollars,

and

he owns half the jewels in Millsburg. He's a true titan in the industry!"

Gordon grinned.

"No way! Gordon, you're really impressive. How did you get to know people

of such high caliber?" Zoey asked with a look of admiration.

Billionaires weren't the kind of people you could meet just anywhere.

"Heh, not just Mr. Bolls, but Ms. Pickens is also no average Joe. She con

trols a substantial amount of mineral resources–

you could say she's made of money! Also, there's Mr. Solinsky. He's the s

on of an extremely wealthy man, he's got a bright future ahead of him and

a lot of power!" Gordon introduced each of them giddily, his face glowin

g with pride.

"Gordon, who would've thought you'd been hiding this all along? I have to

admit, it's amazing!" Zeke gave him a thumbs–up.

"Exactly! You're probably the most spectacular one out of all of us!" Zoe

y said, buttering him up. As she spoke, she even snuck a glance at Dustin

and continued cynically, "Hey, Dustin, did you see that? This is the dif

ference between you and Gordon. Not only is he rich, but he's also well-

connected. You'll never reach his level in your entire lifetime!"
