The awakened members of the Cooper family had a renewed look of high spirits on their faces.

In their opinion, as long as they could gain David Herb’s appreciation, there would be no need for the Coopers to fear Longman.

Not to mention, if they could get acquainted with the mysterious big shot behind David Herb, they might even skyrocket to success. Compared to that, Longman was nothing.

Consequently, the enlightened Coopers looked towards White’s table, their eyes gradually becoming more arrogant.

They were all impatient to see the disappointment on White’s face later.

Someone couldn’t help but sigh privately: what a satisfying scene that would be!

Following that, Maddox instructed his subordinates to clean up the mess White had created, while also sending the unconscious Connor to the hospital.

Maddox’s face turned stern when he saw Connor’s injuries.

He gritted his teeth and mentally asserted, “White! Don’t think that just because you have Longman’s backing, you can wantonly disrespect the Coopers! I, Maddox, will make sure you pay!”

Before long, the sites of destruction were cleaned up by the Coopers. This time, Rhett sent people to keep watch outside. They were to promptly head out to welcome David Herb as soon as he appeared.

However, even Rhett didn’t expect that they would welcome Amanda, Sayon’s underground queen, before David Herb arrived!

Whoosh!

Upon hearing the news, the Coopers’ expressions suddenly tightened. But soon, they each wore a wildly joyous expression.

In Sayon, who didn’t know that Nan Xiaodu And Longman Jack were at odds?

These two, one in the south and the other in the north, each holding half of Sayon’s underworld, had frequent minor disputes, and major disagreements were routine.

Despite Longman’s fierce appearance, ever since the ‘Two Kings Battle’ in

Sayon’s underworld began, he hadn’t been able to do anything about Amanda.

The two were evenly matched. Even though they were at odds, neither could do anything to the other.

Amanda’s arrival was sure to suppress Longman’s arrogance!

Plus, with the impending arrival of David Herb, it could be bluntly said that the Cooper’s momentum would overwhelm most of Savon’s forces!

A mere Longman, a petty White – they were as insignificant as ants!

The more the Coopers thought about it, the more excited they became, eager to see the expressions on Longman’s and White’s faces later.

Maddox, looking elated and full of enthusiasm, spoke, “Come on! Come on!

Everybody, follow me to welcome Amanda!”

With that, Maddox took the lead and walked straight out.

The Coopers, each burning with enthusiasm, quickly followed. As they passed by White’s table, they looked at White and Longman with playful, contemptuous glances.

White appeared nonchalant, while Longman chuckled coldly, his laughter filled with a unique flavor.

Soon enough, Maddox, followed by a group of Coopers, warmly greeted Amanda, who was slowly approaching. Each person wore a serious expression on their face.

“Mr. Duke, your esteemed presence truly graces us. Welcome, welcome…” Maddox said humbly.

Upon witnessing this, the other Coopers quickly began to bow and scrape as well.

This clearly showed the degree of importance the Coopers placed on Amanda.

“Elder Cooper, you’re too kind. I apologize for showing up uninvited today.” Amanda courteously responded.

Whoosh!

After hearing these words, Maddox’s face burst into an uncontrollable smile that lit up his creased face like a beautiful chrysanthemum.

The Coopers too had an inexplicable surge of pride.

Amanda’s words demonstrated how much she valued the Cooper family.

“Perhaps Amanda learned that David Herb would be coming tonight, so she came by specifically to build a favorable relationship,” someone speculated.

At this moment, it wasn’t just one person in the Cooper family who had this thought but even Maddox himself believed so.

Hence, Maddox aimed to impress and somewhat boasted, “Mr. Duke, please be seated first. This old man, I have to personally greet Mr. David Herb later. As you know, considering Mr. Herb’s status and our years of friendship, I must greet him personally. I hope you won’t mind.”

“No worries, you go ahead with your duties. It’s getting late, and Mr. Herb must be arriving soon. You all should prepare,” Amanda said considerately.

There was a collective gasp!

After hearing this, everyone in the Cooper family became even more confident that Amanda had definitely come for David Herb.

Nevertheless, the fact that Amanda had come to wish Elder Cooper a happy birthday was undeniable!

If word got out that the Coopers won the favor of both Amanda and David Herb, who in Sayon City would dare look down upon them?

Perhaps even the head of Sayon City would have to give the Cooper family some face from now on!

Today truly marked the beginning of the Coopers’ ascension to glory.

“Heaven blesses the Coopers! Heaven blesses the Coopers!!!” echoed in Maddox’s heart. As for Longman Jack and White Mitchell, they were cast far out of his mind.

Why would he need to worry about an insignificant Longman given Amanda’s presence.

Just then, Maddox’s glances towards White Mitchell and Longman grew even more scornful.

If circumstances were different, he would never dare to provoke Longman, but now he had the backing not only of David Herb but also Amanda, Longman’s sworn nemesis.

He could swagger through the vast lands of Sayon!

What did a mere Longman count for, let alone a nobody like White Mitchell? He was barely worth a mention, not even fit to be the Coopers’ stepping stone.

“Longman, Longman, you have only yourself to blame for backing the wrong horse… that loathsome lad White Mitchell, haha…” Maddox sneered, immediately ushering Amanda through the door.

When the doors opened to reveal Amanda, an audible gasp echoed through the room. Shock was writ large on everyone’s faces.

Following that, everyone’s gaze unconsciously fell onto White Mitchell and Longman Jack.

Their looks gleamed with amusement, disdain, and deliberate malice.

In their view, David Herb’s presence alone would outweigh Longman’s, let alone now with the addition of Amanda.

The audience, observing all of this, couldn’t help but start whispering amongst themselves.

Some even openly mocked, “Hehe, that lad must be dumbfounded now. Did he think he mattered just because he brought Longman?”

“After all, the Coopers have been running things in Sayon City for many years, how can a greenhorn fresh out of prison measure up? That’s the difference,” a voice resounded confidently.

Everyone present felt that White had shot himself in the foot this time and began to scoff at him.

However, just as they were busy sneering at White, Amanda in a red dress stepped forward and slowly started walking in White’s direction….
