The Legendary Man novel Chapter 653

Chapter 653 The Plan

“Old Mr. Osborne…”

Feeling incredulous, Jay widened his eyes in disbelief at Mason. “No, I should be the head of the family! It is my right!” Jay said. “Stop!”

Everett lifted his right hand, and his strong spiritual energy immobilized Jay within his force field. Everett was the most rational man in the Osborne family. As such, even if he was subduing Jay, Mason made no protest and let the latter do as he saw fit.

At the moment, Jay couldn’t move a single muscle or talk. However, there was an unmistakable look of indignance in his bloodshot eyes. Everett let out a sigh.

“Jay, I know that you must think that I’ve snatched your position as the head of the family away from you. However, I want you to think carefully about your grandfather’s intention. If he continues to support you to assume the position, will you be able to repress those who stand against you in doubt? If you can’t subdue them, what do you think will happen to you then?”

Everett did not elaborate further after that.

After all, some words were better left unsaid.

If Everett said nothing else, Mason would turn out to be a man who had the Osborne family’s best priorities at heart by annulling his own line and supporting Everett. Meanwhile, Everett would return the favor by protecting Jay in the future.

However, if Everett chose to put it all out on the table, Mason would become a scheming man who was trying to protect his own bloodline by promoting Everett, who was on his side.

Whether or not Everett chose to put all cards on the table would spell different intentions for everyone involved in the situation.

Fortunately, though Jay was hysterical from losing his position as the head of the family, his sense of rationality was still intact.

Everett’s words made him fall into deep thought.

After a few minutes, Jay slowly blinked his eyes.

Seeing that, Everett waved his hand to dissipate the spiritual energy he used to control the young man.

Jay slumped to the floor. Immediately afterward, he crawled over to Mason’s side and kneeled before his grandfather.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Jay banged his head against the floor forcefully three times, and when he lifted his head, his forehead was a bloody mess.

“Thank you, Grandpa! Thank you, Uncle Everett! I understand now…”

Mason leaned back in his chair after hearing that.

“Jay, if you wish to stand your ground in our family and not get dragged down by others, or at least not get stabbed in the back by others, your cultivation level has to be God Realm, at least. You have much to learn from your uncle,” Mason commented.

“Yes, Grandpa,” replied Jay in a choking voice.

“Get up,” Mason said impassively.

Knowing that his nephew was drained of his energy, Everett secretly helped him to stand with his spiritual energy. Thankful for his uncle’s support, Jay turned to nod at him.

Meanwhile, Mason spoke again.

“Everett, what’s your opinion on what’s going on in Yaleview?”

Everett frowned slightly when he noticed Mason turning his attention back on himself.

He knew that the latter would not talk of making him the successor of the patriarch of the Osborne family lightly.
