May and the rest panicked seeing things were about to get worse and out of hand.
“Stop!” Just then, there was a sudden shout from behind the crowd.
“Over my dead body! Arrest him!” Bingley snorted coldly and gave orders again without looking at who it was.
“Mr… Mr. Hommer, it seems to be Mr. Zackman…”
Bingley pushed the young man away before he could finish speaking.
“It doesn’t matter who comes! Arrest him!” Bingley burst into anger.
“Bingley Hommer, how dare you?” Then another stern shout came from behind.
Besides that, they called Bingley’s full name.
“Who is it?” Livid, Bingley turned around sharply to look.
When Bingley got a good look at the person’s face, he froze instantly. It was like someone poured cold water from the top of his head and extinguished his fury instantly.
“Oh! Mr. Zackman, what are you doing here?” Bingley hastily rubbed his face, forced a smile, and met the person.
The other staff also recognized the person and quickly stopped what they were doing.
Bjorne also recognized the person. After all, he had just met this guy yesterday.
Yes, it was Henry.
Henry was now dressed in casual clothes, followed by an assistant. However, even if he had come alone, with Henry’s status, Bingley would never have dared to make a scene in front of Henry!
Bingley was only in charge of one area. Henry was a powerful man in the Joules Town government. To put it bluntly, Bingley was no match for Henry. Even Bingley’s boss had to be deferential in Henry’s presence.
Bingley dared not behave arrogantly. Leonardo dared not even speak out loud.
Bjorne looked at Henry with a gleam of amusement. Leonardo was in no hurry to speak.
May and the rest did not know any big shot like Henry. Therefore, they were nervous and dared not speak.
They saw that even Bingley was so polite to Henry. It showed that he was of a higher rank!
The higher his position was, the more power he had. Would Bjorne’s attack today not be more serious?
“Mr. Zackman!” Bingley greeted Henry along with his staff of a dozen people.
At the same time, he was confused.
With Henry’s status, why would he be here?
Even if he wanted to come over, he would have gone straight to Bingley’s office and would have Bingley accompany him here!
Henry’s surprise appearance confused Bingley. Leonardo even quickly ran through what he had been doing lately in his mind.
“What are you doing with all this ruckus?” Henry asked indifferently, looking at Bingley.
Leonardo did not stop walking as he spoke. Leonardo continued walking inside.
“Here’s the thing, Mr. Zackman. We received reports from the public that the orphanage has some illegal operations and even abused the children.”
“Besides that, their staff even beat people up because they didn’t give enough donations.” Bingley’s assistant immediately stepped forward and complained.
Henry frowned gently too. His frown pleased Bingley while May and the rest’s hearts sank.
This incident was probably going to blow up!
They dared not even mess with him. They even had a big shot surnamed Zackman now. Things were about to get a lot trickier!
“Mr. Zackman, it was my oversight that this happened. You can rest assured that I will handle it well. I will investigate and punish those who break the law!” Bingley said with a straight face.
However, Henry continued to ignore Bingley and walked up to Bjorne.
“Mr. Lennon, I finally found you!” Henry looked at Bjorne and extended his palm to shake Bjorne’s hand.
Bam!
Bingley instantly froze when he saw this. The staff behind him also looked stunned.
What’s going on here?
Mr. Lennon? Who’s Mr. Lennon?
The Bjorne only in his 20s?
Bingley widened his eyes, swallowed nervously a few times, and stared at Henry’s movements.
Henry looked polite and extended his palm, waiting to shake hands with Bjorne. More importantly, Bingley keenly captured what Henry had just called Bjorne!
Mr. Lennon!
Leonardo addressed him so politely like he was his elder or someone with a higher rank!
Bjorne was too old to be Henry’s elder.
Did that mean Bjorne’s rank was higher than Henry’s?
With that in mind, Bingley’s heart rate continued to accelerate. Even his facial muscles were twitching uncontrollably.
The people behind him were utterly stunned. They had hit a snag. They were dead meat.
May and the rest looked equally surprised, confused about what was going on.
They had expected Henry to order them to take Bjorne away. Unexpectedly, Henry was polite to Bjorne.
Bjorne glanced at Henry before reaching out to shake his hand. Leonardo could not embarrass Henry when he had already taken the initiative.
Besides, Bjorne needed Henry’s help, and that way, Bjorne did not have to bother anyone else.
“Mr. Lennon, I’ve been looking for you for a long time…” Henry looked slightly embarrassed.
Leonardo asked Leonard where Bjorne lived, but Leonard had no idea either. After much inquiry, he found out Bjorne had close ties to the orphanage, so he hurried over. Leonardo just did not expect to encounter such a thing as soon as he got here.
“Thank you,” Bjorne was amused.
Leonardo knew why Henry had come to see him.
“Mr. Lennon, are you having some trouble?” Being smart, Henry asked.
“There is no shortage of good officials in the government. But there’s no shortage of scum either,” Bjorne shook his head slowly and spoke calmly.
That very statement made Bingley turn pale with horror. Leonardo was pushing him into the abyss with that statement!
