“You Youngs want to play me for a fool? You need to pay for this!” Harold said.

“What do you want?” Melvin asked.

“I have two requests! First of all, Gilbert Young went back on his own words and I don’t think a despicable man like

him should become the leader of the Youngs!” Harold continued coldly.

“What?!” Shocked, Gilbert turned to look at Melvin, fearing that Melvin would agree to Harold’s condition.

“Harold Lowe, whether Gilbert becomes our leader is our internal matter and it’s none of your business!” Melvin

said in annoyance.

He decided to agree to reasonable terms in order to avoid conflicts, but Harold was too arrogant and attempted to

get involved in deciding who became the leader of the Youngs and Melvin to accept such a

request.

“Mister Melvin, I’m only saying this for your own good. Gilbert Young is a mediocre man who’s on a wheelchair right

now. What exactly gives him the right to be your leader? Aren’t you worried that the Youngs would be destroyed at

the hands of such an imbecile?” Harold sneered mockingly.

“Well,” Melvin was instantly rendered speechless.

Harold was right about how Gilbert was far from being as capable as Jonah. On top of that, the Youngs and the

Lowes were about to join forces and always turned against one another because of Gilbert’s foolishness, causing

the Youngs to be at a difficult position.

If Gilbert took over as the leader, the Young might fall from the ranks of the Four Major Families.

Melvin’s heart began to waver.

“The Northern King is right!”

“Gilbert isn’t eligible to be our leader!”

“Yeah! If we trust him with our lives, he’s only going to lead us to our demise!”

The other members began to agree with Harold, especially the members that stemmed from the second bloodline

who preferred Jonah over Gilbert.

The elders instantly quieted down.

They supported Gilbert at the beginning, but Gilbert’s objection to the marriage cost the Youngs a fortune and they

no longer felt the need to support him.

Instantly, Gilbert lost all support and was despised by all.

“Fine. Since you all think that Gilbert doesn’t qualify as the leader, he will be removed as the successor!”

Melvin announced.

As the elder of the second bloodline and the only Overlord in the family apart from Albert, Melvin rarely interfered

with family matters, but was just as respected as Albert was.

Since Albert fell ill and Gilbert was yet to take over as the leader, Melvin had all the right to remove Gilbert from the

position.

“Uncle Melvin, please don’t! I’m the first in line to be the next leader. You can’t remove my position as the

successor,” Gilbert felt as though he was struck by lightning.

All he wanted was to fulfill his responsibility as a father as he was reluctant to benefit at the cost of his daughter’s

happiness, yet he lost the chance to become the leader of the family in the end.
