I Am the Ruler of All

Chapter 214

Just then, Henry shouted toward the tunnel under the overpass. "Sir! Sir, we're here to apologize to you!" Knowing that Ares liked to travel incognito, he dared not address him by his name or title. After thinking it over for a long time, he finally decided that the word 'sir' would suit Ares' status best.

As soon as Henry finished his sentence, the other members of the Wynn Family shouted in chorus, "Sir, we're here to apologize to you!"

"Pffft!" At the sight of the scene, the onlookers burst out laughing immediately. "What the hell is going on? Sir? Do they think they're filming a period drama or something?"

The Wynns heard the muffled snickers coming from the people around them, but they couldn't find it in themselves to laugh at all. Instead, they were so nervous that they nearly threw up. If Ares refused to forgive them, they would really be done for!

Meanwhile, the dirty and foul-smelling old tramp was sitting under the bridge with his head down in contemplation. He had gradually regained his sanity since Kingsley treated him the other day by hitting his acupuncture points. Now, his eyes no longer showed the kind of glazed looks and madness as they had earlier. Instead, they were fathomless and full of wisdom and shrewdness…

The old tramp's name was Mason Parker, and he was 61 this year. Before losing his sanity, he had been the CEO of 24 business groups. However, he went through a series of misfortunes afterward, which reduced him to the state of destitution he was in today.

Upon hearing the Wynns' cries outside the tunnel, Mason mumbled to himself with a grin, "These guys are here to apologize to me, huh? That boy's really quite something." He slowly stood up with his hands behind his back before stepping out of the tunnel with a stoop.

Seeing him come out of the tunnel, Henry burst into tears of excitement. He kowtowed and shouted, "Sir, are you willing to see us at last?"

The other members of the Wynn Family also touched the concrete ground with their foreheads, not daring to raise their heads even a centimeter.

At the sight of the scene, the onlookers took out their cell phones. Recording videos of the scene, they mocked, "Are they nuts or something? Why do they kowtow to an old tramp?"

"Perhaps they're filming a parody video or something. This is hilarious! Haha…" Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

On the other hand, Reene was already stupefied. This was her first time seeing Henry kneel to someone else—and a dirty and foul-smelling old tramp at that! Clamping a hand over her mouth, she said in surprise, "Kingsley, am I seeing things? Are those kowtowing to the old man really the members of the Wynn Family?"

"Haha! It's that bunch of idiots, of course!" Kingsley laughed hysterically. "How is it, Reene? Do you enjoy it?"

Reene subconsciously nodded. "Little did I think they would do this one day," she said. Then, she asked curiously, "What exactly is going on, Kingsley? Is the old vagrant a big shot or something? To think that he can make Grandpa and others revere him like that!"

"No, he's not a big shot!" Kingsley replied with a laugh. "He really is just a homeless vagrant. It's just that those idiots in the Wynn Family are fooled into thinking that he's some kind of a big shot."

Upon hearing this, Reene also couldn't help laughing aloud. "In that case, won't they get pissed off if they learn that they've been fooled?"

"Haha… I also wish to see the looks on their faces when they learn of the truth…" Kingsley pointed at the scene outside the car window. He said, "Look, Reene! Henry dare not raise his head yet!"

'Ares' had yet to speak at this moment, so the Wynns kept on kowtowing to him and dared not get up.

Mason stood there while looking at them for a full minute. Then, he slowly said, "Get up, all of you." The way he conducted himself like someone in power with effortless ease caused Henry and others to be totally convinced of his identity.

"Thank you so much, sir! Thank you!" The Wynns hurriedly got up from the ground while thanking Mason repeatedly.

During the minute of silence just now, Mason had figured out the story behind this. That young man must've played some kind of trick to make these people think that I'm a big shot, resulting in the scene at the moment. Having figured this out, he decided to acknowledge his 'identity' directly instead of blowing his cover. Even though he was no longer insane, he was now penniless; all he had was latent diseases and old wounds. He had to free himself from his current predicament through the Wynn Family!

Having made up his mind, he asked Henry with a sneer, "Why do you want to see me? Is it because you want to apologize for how a young man in your family wounded me?"
