Chapter 58
Wayne’s whole body was trembling violently. Desperation and terror filled his eyes. However, he began
taking deep breaths. trying to calm himself down. This was to save his life! Of course, it was for the
sake of his own life.
As the wealthiest man in Greenwald, Joshua’s methods behind the scenes were crystal clear to
Wayne. At this moment, he needed toe up with a n! Soon, Gavin was surely going to reveal the
fact that Wayne had swapped the medicinal herb he had given him.
Wayne decided to firmly deny it at that time, insisting that he had done nothing. After all, there was no
evidence on their side. They would not be able to do anything to him without evidence! At this
realization, Wayne controlled his emotions. and calmed down. However, he waspletely unaware of
how naive he had been.
At this moment, Gavin, with aposed expression, looked at Joshua kneeling on the ground.
Of course, he knew Joshua Bailey.
Back in the day, the role Joshua yed was akin to the current wealthiest man of Brookspring, Vincent
Dunn. They were all his servants at the time. However, over the past decade, these servants had all
transformed into individuals with significant social status. Gavin was not sure whether he should feel
relieved now.
He asked without strong emotions, “Is this pharmacy yours?”
Joshua knelt on the ground, keeping his head low, and dared not lift it. He nodded vigorously and
spoke loudly, saying, “Master, this pharmacy is not mine. It belongs to you! All the assets under my
control belong to you! As a servant, I’m merely managing them on your behalf!”
Hearing Joshua’s words, the group of Bailey Pharmacy’s bodyguards surrounding him was filled with a
deep sense of shock! Their worldviews had beenpletely shattered by now, and they were slowly
rebuilding them. When had they ever seen their boss act so subservient to somebody else? Who
exactly was the young man standing opposite?

Just moments ago, they had been influenced by Wayne and were nning to take action against this
young man. Thank goodness Joshua arrived in time! If they had trulyid hands on this young man, the
consequences would have been unimaginable! At this moment, they were all kneeling on the ground,
heads down, their bodies trembling slightly, afraid to lift their heads and witness the scene before them.
After receiving Joshua’s response, Gavin pointed at Wayne, who was kneeling on the other side, and
asked, “Is he your man?” Joshua’s body twitched slightly upon hearing this question. He then turned to
look in the direction Gavin was pointing and immediately responded, “Yes, Master. He’s Wayne Lynch,
and I arranged for him to be here to manage this pharmacy.” Gavin let out a soft chuckle and calmly
remarked. “Joshua, you have indeed cultivated quite apetent subordinate.” Upon hearing this,
Joshua’s face turned pale, and he trembled. If he could not decipher such an obvious taunt, he would
not deserve to be the wealthiest man in Greenwald! Gavin’s words were clearly mocking him.
Next, Joshua turned around and, with an icy and angry gaze, shouted at Wayne, “You bastard! What
did you do to provoke the master?”
Wayne shivered heavily and quickly replied, “Mr. Bailey, I didn’t do anything…”
Here, Wayne was just about to implement the strategy he had just decided on, which was to deny any
involvement and insist that he had not done anything.
However, he hadn’t finished his sentence when Joshua’s furious roar cut in. “Shut up! You don’t need to
say anything. Those who dare to offend the master will be executed without mercy!”
“What?” Wayne gasped, and the look of despair and fear reappeared in his eyes. This was different
from what he had imagined! Why wouldn’t his boss, with whom he had spent so many years, even
listen to him? Wayne hadpletely underestimated Gavin’s status in Joshua’s eyes.
“Mr. Bailey!” Wayne shouted with a teary voice.
On the other side, Joshua had already yelled, “Take this bastard to the backyard and get rid of him!”
“What… The bodyguards looked at each other in hesitation. After all, they had spent a long time with
Wayne. They were reluctant toply with Joshua’s demand right away
“No! Mr. Bailey, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong!”
Wayne, seeing that things had escted to this point and realizing he had no way out, began to
scream. He even knelt down and turned in the direction of Gavin.
With a loud thud, he knocked his head on the ground Then he raised his palm, and with a loud p, he
hercely pped has own face Immediately, he shouted loudly. “Master, I was wrong! I truly know I was
wrong!”
After that, there was another loud thud, which was a knock of his head on the ground. And then,
followed by a p again. That was another p to his own face

“Master, please spare me. I won’t do it again, I will never ever do it again”
However, Gavin had no intention of paying attention to his pleas. Meanwhile, Joshua, unconcerned
with Wayne’s begging. yelled again, “What the hell are you all standing around for?! Kill this bastard! Or
else, I’ll kill all of you!”
The group of bodyguards upon hearing this statement, shivered in fear. Because carrying out such an
act of killing was something Joshua could actually do, and he had the capability to do it! Without
hesitation, they loudly replied, “Yes!”
Then, they sprang to their feet and gathered around in the direction of Wayne.
“No, please let me go!
“Let me go, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong…” Wayne’s cries became fainter and finally
vanished in the backyard.
A faint smell of blood filled the air.
At this point, Joshua cautiously asked, “Master, I have taken care of Wayne. Are you satisfied with the
result?”
Hearing Joshua’s question, Gavin replied indifferently, “Not quite.”
“Huh?” Joshua was shocked by Gavin’s response, his face turning pale. The next moment, Joshua
raised his hand and pped himself in the face, saying loudly, “Master, this is my bad, and I leave my
fate in your hands!”
The bodyguards, who had just returned after disposing of Wayne, witnessed this scene. They were so
frightened that they immediately knelt down again, trembling all over. Goodness, if they had to be killed
as well to please Gavin, what should they do?
Gavin watched Joshua p himself and then raised his hand to say, “It’s not because of this. It’s
because that bastard you just dealt with had switched the herb that I had prepared for my aunt with
someone else!”
Joshua was briefly taken aback, and he instinctively raised his head to ask, “Master, who did he switch
your herb with?” Gavin recalled and replied, “I heard that person just now call him something like… Mr.
Hill.”
Joshua was slightly surprised and immediately said, “Brody from the Hill family?”
Gavin raised an eyebrow and asked, “You know him?”
Joshua nodded and exined, “Master, I know why Brody took an interest in your herb. He wants to be
a student of Dr. Myers in Riverrun!”
“Dr. Myers?” Gavin’s eyes lit up with interest when he heard the words.
