After so many years of hardship, Lin Mo was no longer the naive and innocent person he used to be, nor the porter he was during the time of the standoff.
He had long had a complete understanding of how this world operates.
Take the event he had just experienced, for instance, Lin Mo felt that there were ten thousand reasons for Johnson Hester not to save him, and it was even possible for him to kick him while he was down.
After all, as long as he himself was still alive, he would have to be a puppet, a duke without any real power, just a puppet.
If possible, no one would want to live like that.
People have their own aspirations.
Perhaps when Johnson Hester was running for election initially, he was willing to make some unreasonable commitments to Lin Mo and agreed to help him with some matters to become the duke.
But people will become arrogant.
