The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 471

Harold, accompanied by Hoover, Ben, Stefan, and other senior figures, personally went to greet the group of important guests.

"Hello, Mr. Miller. I didn't expect my return for the family reunion to cause such a stir," Harold said with a smile.

Maxwell Miller, the CEO of Norwich Group, was polite as he shook Harold's hand. He was unaware of the conflict between these figures and Nolan.

Turning to the other influential figures present, Harold extended his hand with a beaming smile. "It truly is an honor to have such distinguished guests with us. Your presence brings great prestige to our village. Thank you, thank you.

"And you must be Fang. Truly impressive, a rising star in the underworld of Eastern State. No wonder you're regarded as one of the strongest among the younger generation. You've certainly made an unforgettable impression."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present couldn't help but show expressions of amusement.

The strongest rising star in the Eastern State underworld? Ha! That title was outdated. The current Fang was no longer just a rising star—he had already become the most powerful figure in the Eastern State underworld, and soon, he might very well become the only giant left.

Fang, unsure of Harold's exact identity, simply nodded and said, "Mr. Greene is returning for the family reunion, so of course we had to come."

Hearing the title "Mr. Greene", Harold initially thought Fang was referring to him. He quickly smiled and said, "Esteemed leaders and distinguished guests, please, take your seats on the stage. Mr. Stutton, Mr. Gallant, please ensure our honored guests are welcomed properly."

Ben, having never encountered so many influential figures before, was momentarily stunned. But he quickly realized—these were real, tangible connections.

"Esteemed leaders and distinguished guests, please follow me to the stage. I apologize for any inconvenience. Our village is handling a small matter at the moment, so please bear with us. We hope it won't be too bothersome."
