Chapter 889: Astounding Reversal


    Although theyrgely outnumbered the opponent by several hundred men, the guards were still


    intimidated.


    That man had certainly hold a strong presence.


    “What are you waiting for? Fight!” Remy yelled furiously.


    Although the Harris family made their name because of wealth, they had alwaysmanded


    respect and were treated like a noble family. For generations, they had never suffered such


    disrespect.


    How could the Harris family continue if they did not revenge the killings and desecration of their


    dead?


    When the guards heard the order, all of them rushed towards Ernest. They were vicious and ready


    to kill!


    Timothy and his men tensed up and were ready to fight back. Ernest also spun his baton and was


    about to strike.


    A blood bath was about to unfold.


    Suddenly someone shouted, “Stop!”


    The voice was familiar to the Harris family’s guards. They respected and feared this person.


    They slowly turned around and looked at a very stern Gideon Harris. They were puzzled that why


    he stopped them when they were about to fight.


    Remy was anxious and upset when he said to Gideon, “Brother, I know that you are


    compassionate. But now is not the time to be soft. Our second brother’s body had been desecrated


    by them just outside our house. This disrespect must not go unanswered!”


    “Yes, Brother. Ernest and the rest must die!” The other men chimed in angrily.


    Kieran stood on one side and his eyes lit up as he looked at Gideon. He was unsettled as he


    noticed that Gideon was staring at Ernest. Gideon was the head of the family. He had always been


    more gracious. You could say that he was kind; but on the other hand, it was rather foolish of him to


    be so. However, at least the family business was enormous and no one dared to take advantage of


    his generosity.


    But when someone was used to being gracious, he would naturally be soft. Then he would let


    Ernest and the rest go.


    The opportunity for him to kill Ernest and Stanford did note easy and he would not just let them


    slip away.


    Kieran said firmly, “These elders are correct. Master, Uncle Hayden died for nothing and was even


    burnt alive. I’m afraid that he could not even rest in peace in the afterlife! You are the brother whom


    he respected the most. You must avenge him! Ernest and the rest are now so arrogant and it is


    obvious that they do not respect the Harris family. Since they dared kill Uncle Hayden, they would


    for sure dare kill the other Harris family members, including you…”


    Kieran did not continue but the undertone of his words was clearly expressed.


    A person of high position would more likely be subjected to such instigations. Most instigations


    would work as they depended on people''s emotions.


    Everyone was eagerly looking at Gideon for an answer and for him to give the next order to destroy


    Ernest and the rest.


    Gideon’s expression went livid and then he yelled furiously, “Shut the hell up, all of you!”


    The Harris brothers were dumbfounded. So were Kieran and the rest of the guards.


    They were all shocked that the Master of the family had scolded them. Did hemand them to


    shut up? Could that be possible?


    Before they came to their senses, they saw Gideon walk down the vehicle and then he approached


    Ernest looking very troubled.


    Remy quickly blocked his way and said, “Brother, don’t go. It’s dangerous.”


    “Step aside, if we continue this, it’s our Harris family that would be in danger.”


    Gideon never spoke so sternly to his brothers but now he pushed aside Remy and walked slowly to


    Ernest.


    Timothy stepped in front to stop Gideon and waved his baton as a warning, ready to kill him with a


    blow.


    Gideon quickly said, “I have no ill intentions.”

    He stopped five meters away and looked at Ernest as he nervously asked, “Is your name Ernest?”


    Ernest looked at Gideon and leaned against the car with a grin on his face. Just as he expected,


    there was no need to fight.


    “Yes.”


    “Then may I ask if you are the heir of the Turner family?” Gideon’s tone became even more polite.


    Ernest narrowed his eyes and understood immediately.


    Gideon’s sudden change in attitude was because he had realized his status at the Turner family.


    But Ernest had never seen this fifty-something year old man. Ernest then asked coldly, “Who are


    you?”


    Gideon’s heart sank when he heard the way Ernest responded. The way Ernest responded implied


    that he had admitted he was the heir of the Turner family and the future Master of it.


    Ernest asked about how he was involved with the Turner family.


    Gideon then took a deep bow in respect.


    “Mr. Hawkins, I once received help from the Turner family, and only then was I able to revive my


    own family. What we have achieved today was in no small part because of the Turner family’s


    support. Inparison to the Turner family, the Harris family was just a small and insignificant


    enterprise. So it’s normal for you not to know me. I saw you once from afar when I visited the Turner


    family. Your impable smile is unforgettable. I always wanted to pay you a visit.”


    His tone and choice of words were exceedingly respectful and he spoke like a subordinate.


    All the people of the Harris family were stunned. They were frozen in ce and shocked to see


    what their master had done. They were totally speechless. Gideon had been in charge of the family


    for decades and although he was kind, he was always authoritative. Never had anyone seen him


    bow to others. Not to mention being so humble.


    To the rest of them, he was like a god sitting on the throne. He was their religion.


    But now they saw that their master, their god, someone they believed in stooping so low in front of


    man probably half of his age.


    Kieran almost exploded. He wanted to gorge out his own eyes to deny that he had ever seen such a


    scene. His hatred for Ernest made him react instantly and he yelled, “Master, did you mistake him


    for someone else? As far as I know, he is just the CEO of the Hawkins Group. Previously I almost


    make him go bankrupt. He doesn’t have that kind of power and background. How could he have the


    ability to support our family business?”


    Kieran was in disbelief. He had heard that the Harris family had some outside help but apart from


    Gideon, no one knew who was helping them.


    It was only now that they found out it was the Turner family.
