My Waste Husband
Chapter 1100

Chapter 1100

Steadmann didn't speak in a loud voice, but his voice appeared to be so loud under the fearful and oppressive atmosphere.

People were scared to find out that there was really someone more powerful than the Middleton family. Everyone was more curious about what this someone was than the fact that Steadmann just confessed that the Middleton family was responsible for what happened to Ailsa.

Henry raised the corners of his mouth and said, "So you are telling me that someone made the Middleton family harm Ailsa?"

"I know my words sound cowardice," Steadmann nodded, "But that is the fact. Sir, I've told you what really happened."

"If you have done it earlier, there won't be so many lives lost in vain." Henry nodded with satisfaction. "I know what has happened. You go and tell the head of the family. I'll come back later and talk the thing over with him."

Steadmann saluted and said, "Welcome."

Henry got up from the chair and walked towards the door of the hall. People were trying to stay away from him.

After Henry left the room, people finally breathed a sigh of relief. They then all tried to give a random excuse and left the party. After what had happened that night, they wanted to leave before they got into trouble.

The lights were still shining around the castle.

The colors, lights, shadows made the castle looked like something from a fairy tale.

Only people walked out of this fairy tale structure with near-death drama.

Rossiter, in particular, was still scared. The arrogant behavior he had pulled in front of Henry could very much get himself killed. The only reason he was still alive was that Henry didn't care about his life.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the moon was hanging in the air.

Dark clouds drifted over, covering the moon.

Henry walked on the road, and someone was following him.

"Boss, why didn't you kill them all? One word from you, I'll bring the whole castle down," Future asked in confusion.

Henry shook his head, and his eyes were cold. "The Middleton family is playing the innocents. If they would like to play a game, I'll play with them. I've given them time to inform the powerful people behind them. I'll come back tomorrow."

"Boss, what if that man tells the truth? It is really those other powerful people who wanted Ailsa dead?"

"So what?" Henry looked hardened, "Harming Ailsa is enough to get this family all killed, and no excuse can exonerate them. Wade and Red Hair are both seriously injured. I believe those powerful people definitely want to fight us too!"

"But who do you think they are?" Future was trying to make sense of the situation, "I don't think it's the Noble Berserkers. It's most likely to be Recluse Association or Alvin League."

"Yeah?" Henry was surprised, "Why Recluse Association?"

"Naturally," The Future answered, "Recluse Association had made you a criminal and later a warden. Everyone knows how powerful you are to pull that off. Now rumor has it that Bishop of the Europe Recluse Association stepped down, and the new Bishop took over. He would give Radiant Island trouble as an example to show people his dominant power."

Hearing this, Henry was pondering.

For establishing his prestige, he started the fight with Hebron Merrick and hunted Hebor millions of miles. The story should have spread around. But it seemed that Future only knew about the Bishop but not about what Henry had done. Henry suspected that someone was trying to block the information about what he had done in Holy City.

Someone was trying to stop Henry from establishing his prestige. If this person could hold information in Recluse Association, the person's status should be higher than even a bishop!

Deducting to the root of the problem by only one detail was one of the skills that Henry was surviving on.

Seeing Henry was lost in his thoughts, Future couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Henry came back to reality and shook his head, "Well find out who they are tomorrow."

In the castle, staring at the bodies lying on the floor, Steadmann looked gloomy.

Dozens of members of the Middleton family also stood there in pain. Some of them were still trembling in fear.

"Inform the Master! No one will get away with messing with the Middleton family! Ailsa was lucky to hide in Norman's place, so she can keep her life. But we won't make the same mistake twice. I won't allow that man to walk out of this castle alive tomorrow! I want to use this opportunity to eliminate the Norman family too!

Future, there will only be the Middleton family!"

The cold wind blew outside of the castle, and the moon never came out from behind the clouds.

Early next morning, under the oppressive atmosphere, many people rushed into the castle. They were all members of the Middleton family.

A white-haired senior man, holding a gold staff, was sitting in the middle of the hall in the castle.

Steadmann stood next to the senior man with his head lowered.

In front of the senior man, members of the Middleton family were standing there quietly.

The senior man closed his eyes, and Steadmann murmured something.

After a long while, Steadmann stopped, and the senior man opened his eyes. The senior man's eyes gave out sharp sparkles as if he could see through everything and everyone.

He was the head of the family, Branwyll Middleton.

Decades ago, as one of the most powerful people in Yizhou Country, he dominated the country. Even his presence was so strong that no one could match. At the age of almost a hundred, he had lost much of his strength.

Branwyll raised the staff and tapped it on the floor,

"In recent years, the Norman family has been expanding their power uncontrollably, and it's only because the ruler of the underground world is supporting them. Judging by what you have told me, I guess Lord S himself has paid us a visit personally."

Lord S!

Those members who had witnessed what happed the night before all trembled.

Lord S represented something huge in the western myths.

Branwyll looked at the light reflected off the chandelier.

He sighed, "A few days ago, two lords of Radiant Island came to us and started a fight. I should know that Lord S would visit us personally. But what I didn't expect is that he would pick such a time. He does live up to his name. Scruples!"

Steadmann asked in a low voice, "Master, if it's really Lord S, how should we do?"

Branwyll smiled, "There will be people to deal with him. We just sit tight and watch the show!"
