Lahat ng Kabanata ng Hidden Monarch: The Silent Resurgence: Kabanata 781 - Kabanata 790

After the call, John understood everything. Henry had nothing to do with resolving their issue with the Levies. It was Lydia who had secretly called and sought help from Peter. Furthermore, Lydia had intentionally attributed all the credit to Henry.Lydia provided them with all the information they knew, including the claim that Henry was the Master of Golden Liberty. It suggested that Lydia and Henry had deceived them.John's face paled with anger as he realized it and nearly triggered a heart attack. He felt utterly manipulated.Jennifer was equally shocked, slapping herself in regret. She had sensed that something was off in Lydia's attitude. Despite what should have been a joyous event, Lydia had seemed burdened. They finally realized it was all a ruse, making them feel deeply humiliated, especially since they had gone out of their way to please Henry, who turned out to be a worthless imposter.John's face grew darker. He had been played in his old age and by his most beloved g

As Maeve spoke, she deliberately got closer to Henry, even wrapping her arms around his. Henry was stunned by her actions and thought she was too enthusiastic, leaving him confused.The young man following them did not like that and glared at Henry with a hostile look. He smirked and said, "Looking good isn't enough for a man; what's important is having the real deal.""Exactly," Henry quickly replied, trying to change the topic."Maeve, aren't you going to introduce us?""This is Jacob McBride. He's been pursuing me and insisted on coming to Hodbridge with me," Maeve explained."By the way, I hear you're really good at martial arts, and no one can beat you."Before Henry could deny it, Jacob scoffed. "With that weak-looking body? The people he fought must be trash. I can take him down in no time.""Don't brag. Henry is really strong. Don't cry if you get beaten," Maeve retorted."Impossible!" Jacob said arrogantly."Henry, do you dare to spar with me? Let's see who's better."

Maeve was secretly surprised at how sharp Henry was; he had figured out her intentions from just a few words. Fortunately, she quickly found an excuse and said, "Exactly, thank you so much, Henry. If you ever need my help, name it.""Don't worry about that. You're Lydia's cousin; it's my duty to help you," Henry replied."You're the best, Henry," Maeve said.Maeve was quite the sweet talker. Henry shook his head helplessly. He started driving them back to the Miller Mansion. The atmosphere remained pleasant until they approached an intersection, and a car shot out from a side street.The driver did not notice the oncoming traffic and swerved into Henry's car. Henry braked as fast as he could, but the other driver panicked and steered into his car instead of away.Bang!The impact jolted them both. Henry's head almost hit the steering wheel, but he quickly protected Maeve. Despite his efforts, it still caused him some pain.Luckily, neither of them was seriously hurt. Maeve reali

"You—"You—" Bell was furious."Fine, let's not argue about that. You hit my car today. It's worth 150,000 dollars. You need to pay for half of it, or you're not leaving," she demanded.Henry chuckled and said calmly, "It's not up to you to decide. Why don't we call the traffic cops and let them sort it out?""The traffic police chief is one of the Colemans. Going there is like going home for me. Who do you think they'll side with?""I don't know. I think they'll be fair and side with the truth," Henry replied calmly, secretly starting a recording."What a joke! They'll take your car and license away in no time," Bell shot back."I don't believe that.""Just wait and see," Bell said angrily while pulling out her phone to call for backup.Maeve was nervous. She whispered, "The Colemans are very powerful. Shouldn't we back down and avoid trouble?""The Colemans are nothing to me," Henry said confidently.Maeve was stunned. Jennifer had always said Henry was good at fighting a

Henry could have helped Leroy, but he held back to expose those people's true colors.Everyone stood in front of the car, and the car's dash cam recorded everything. The other traffic cop had a body camera and recorded the whole conversation.However, Ray did not seem to care about any of that, even though he clearly saw the camera.Just as Henry was about to step in, another police car arrived and grabbed everyone's attention. Two police officers stepped out, one clearly higher in rank—it was Wade Jefferson, the Chief of the Traffic Police Department, the person Bell had tried to call earlier.Wade was surprised to see Ray and quickly walked over, respectfully saying, "What brings you here, Young Master Coleman?""Your men would've made a mess of things if I weren't here," Ray sneered."They couldn't even handle a minor accident correctly. This wreck clearly hit my girlfriend's car, yet they didn't report it properly.""You must be joking, Young Master Coleman. They must've mis
