A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 710 - 710

Looking at Yorick Hall's arrogant and smug expression.

Dirk Carter really wanted to punch him.

But he knew that if he acted on impulse, the situation would become even more uncontrollable.

Still thinking Dirk was hesitating.

Yorick Hall added, "Dirk Carter, whether or not the resort exists makes no difference to you. I'll make sure someone takes care of your parents' graves. What's wrong with that?"

"What if I refuse?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Yorick Hall pointed to the workers.

He said, "Then I won't have any solutions. In rural areas, some things need an explanation. Even if you die here today, no one will care."

Dirk Carter sneered.

He said, "Dream on if you want the order canceled. When I, Dirk Carter, say something, it's like water thrown out—never taken back."

"Fine, fine, leaders are indeed leaders, tough-minded. It's okay; let's see what happens then."

In Yorick Hall's view.

The reason Dirk hadn't agreed yet.

Was because he hadn't suffered enough.

These officials, once they suffer a little, they collapse.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly, "Brother Blaxton, being a leader is awesome, bullying your wife like it's nothing. I won't get involved in this; handle it yourself."

Blaxton Morgan was refraining out of respect for Yorick Hall.

But his anger was ready to explode.

Upon hearing this.

He shouted at his fellow workers, "Brothers, these officials are too tyrannical, take him away!"

A group of workers, unaware of the truth.

Were also incensed.

Surged up and surrounded Dirk Carter.

They directly grabbed him.

Dragged him out to the area by the main gate.

"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"

The crowd was excited.

Everyone was shouting.

The scene was enough to scare someone into weak knees.

At this moment.

Blaxton Morgan emerged from the inner room.

He was holding a kitchen knife.

Furious and fierce.

Standing in front of Dirk Carter.

While Yorick Hall, folding his arms, stood aside, detached and unaffected.

This instigator was eagerly hoping Blaxton Morgan would do something crazy. In any case, no matter the outcome, it wouldn't be on him.

"You bastard, think you're something because you're an official, right? Want to sleep with my wife, do you? Today, I'm going to chop off your vile piece so you can't touch another woman again! Guys, knock him down."

At Blaxton's command.

Dirk Carter was pinned to the ground by several workers.

At this moment.

Yorick Hall crouched down in front of Dirk's head.

He leaned over.

Whispered, "Dirk Carter, time's running out. You can still change your mind. If you wait a few more minutes, you're going to become a eunuch."

"Pah!"

Dirk Carter spat.

It landed on Yorick Hall's face.

Yorick wiped it off with his hand.

Contemptuously saying, "Well, well, you have guts, really do. Do you really think someone's going to save you? Sorry, no one's coming, and no one will save you."

After saying that.

Yorick stood up.

Backed away a few steps.

By this time, he'd lost hope in Dirk Carter.

He had prepared for the worst.

If worse comes to worst, coax Blaxton Morgan to kill Dirk Carter, so without Dirk, his resort will naturally face no threats.

With resolve.

He said, "Old Blaxton, we earn money working hard outside for our wives at home, don't we? Look at this official's attitude, trying to rape your wife while you're not home—such a person deserves to die!"

"Right, he deserves to die! Kill him!"

The workers were likewise outraged by such matters.

Incited by Yorick Hall.

They too began to clamour.

Blaxton Morgan was overwhelmed with shame and anger.

Coupled with having drunk quite a bit before coming.

His mind was already muddled.

Upon hearing these words, he didn't think much more, gritted his teeth, raised the kitchen knife in hand, and was about to hack at Dirk Carter!

In the nick of time.

Several beams of flashlight suddenly shone on his face.

Immediately felt a bit dazzled.

Blaxton Morgan covered his eyes.

At this time, heard a strong voice shout, "Stop right this instant!"

Looking into the distance.

See an old man, followed by dozens of villagers, striding down the village path.

When Blaxton Morgan saw him.

He hurried over to greet him.

Respectfully saying, "Old Uncle Constantine, what brings you here?"

This seemingly over seventy-year-old man named Constantine Grant, was the former village head of Faircloth Village in Bayberry Town, and the most respected elder in Faircloth Village.

Constantine Grant did not answer Blaxton Morgan's question, his face gloomy, asked, "Blaxton, what's going on at your house?"

Yorick Hall saw this.

Immediately stepped forward, pointed at Dirk Carter on the ground said, "Old Uncle Constantine, this guy bullied Blaxton's wife, we caught him red-handed."

Constantine Grant gave Yorick Hall a dismissive look.

He said, "I'm asking Blaxton, not you."

Yorick Hall heard this.

Immediately shut his mouth sulkily.

Blaxton Morgan replied, "Old Uncle Constantine, Mr. Liu is right, I saw it with my own eyes. When I entered, he was lying on my wife Faith..."

"Faith, come over here."

Constantine Grant called towards the door for Faith Hendrix.

Faith Hendrix dared not disobey.

Came over timidly, softly said, "Old Uncle Constantine..."

"Did he bully you?"

Constantine Grant asked, pointing at Dirk Carter on the ground.

"Yes!"

Faith Hendrix nodded and said.

Constantine Grant was silent for a moment.

He then said loudly, "I announce, from now on, Blaxton Morgan, Faith Hendrix, husband and wife, are expelled from Faircloth Village, their village collective land reclaimed, no family in Faircloth Village is allowed to associate with them. If violated, I, Constantine Grant, will never forgive them."

As soon as this was said.

Blaxton Morgan and Faith Hendrix were dumbfounded.

Yorick Hall was even more stunned.

They glanced at each other.

Seemingly not understanding where the problem was.

A group of village youths.

Helped Dirk Carter up from the ground.

Yorick Hall said discontentedly, "Old Uncle Constantine, what's going on, clearly he's the one bullying, why is Blaxton's family being expelled? Aren't you being unfair, are you afraid because he's an official?"

This attempt was also to provoke conflict.

Thinking it would draw public anger.

Unexpectedly, not a single villager behind Constantine Grant stood out to question.

Constantine Grant walked over to Dirk Carter.

He took his hand.

Said to Yorick Hall and Blaxton Morgan's group, "This person, no matter what he does in the village, it's someone else's fault, because he is George Carter's son. In Faircloth Village, no one can touch him. Folks, don't you agree?"

"Yes!"

Everyone joined in the shouting.

This was genuine excitement from the crowd.
