Chapter 471

Eagle King continued, "Yvette came to Voraxia three years ago. I thought it was because Hadley had crossed her and that's why she killed him. Who knew she was actually an Interpol officer?" There was a touch of grievance in Eagle King's voice as if he still couldn't quite believe it himself. A tough guy like him, looking so pitiful-it was honestly a bit amusing.

Rodney, sitting on the couch, glanced at him. "That expression works for me, Mr. Eagle King, but on you? It's just terrifying."

Eagle King was pissed by his words.

Samantha, Charles, and Emmett were starting to piece things together. From what Eagle King was saying, Rodney didn't seem to care about Hadley. That was why he had no obligation to seek revenge. However, there was still one thing that didn't sit right with them. They thought, 'Even if Rodney didn't seek revenge, he still shouldn't be so close with Yvette, right?

Seeing the confusion in their eyes, Eagle King sighed again and recounted the story. "Hadley wanted to sell Rodney to a local criminal in Voraxia. This man had a notorious reputation for torturing kids.

"If Rodney had been handed over to him... Well, you can imagine how bad it would've gotten, but you probably guessed it. Yvette saved him and then killed Hadley."

Hearing this, Samantha was enraged. She glared at Rodney who looked so delicate. "Hadley was absolute trash. How could he use his son to curry favor with others? He got what he deserved."

Rodney lifted his gaze when he heard Samantha's words, his voice calm. "It's okay. If it weren't for Hadley, I wouldn't have met Yvette. I ended that asshole myself."

Rodney spoke so calmly as if it were just another insignificant thing.

Samantha looked at Rodney, whose expression remained unfazed. Listening to him mention Yvette constantly, she sighed She thought, 'No wonder this kid didn't hold any grudge against Yvette. If she hadn't killed Hadley, he might have been long dead by now. Emmett and Charles were also moved by what they heard. They thought, 'If Rodney hadn't met Yvette, he probably would've ended up dead. No wonder he treats Yvette so nicely. They're not enemies but family.'

Jeremiah glanced at Rodney, who was swinging his legs on the couch, his small stature still not reaching the floor. He turned his body slightly, his gaze sharp and cold. "Are you the new King of Voraxia?"

Rodney stiffened at the comment, casting an annoyed glance at Jeremiah. He thought, 'Yvette's boyfriend is always so sly... He is so lucky to have her.'

Eagle King snorted, "The reason Rodney became the new King of Voraxia is because the biggest gang in Eldoria provides him with the most advanced weapons every year at the lowest market price. In a place like Voraxia, power is everything." Emmett, Charles, and Samantha didn't need Eagle King to elaborate further. They all knew Voraxia was a brutal place. There was no way a ten-year-old child possibly rise to become its ruler.

When Hadley died his territory was bound to be contested by many, and a kid like Rodney couldn't just step in and take control without some help.

Eagle King looked at Rodney who appeared so innocent and said "Don't underestimate this kid. Weapons alone won't get him far. He may seem harmless on the outside, but he's ruthless. He strikes hard and without hesitation." Eagle King couldn't help but think back to those days. Supported by Eldoria's weapons, the ten-year-old Rodney had, within

a year, won the hearts of the local people, suppressed his enemies with force, and, thanks to a large influx of money, solidified his position.

For another six months, he had completely wiped out anyone who opposed him, officially becoming the new King of

Voraxia.

Charles suddenly had a thought. A ten-year-old kid didn't have much money, let alone connections to the biggest gang in Eldoria, How could Rodney have possibly...

Charles turned toward Yvette, who was lounging on the couch, r expression unreadable as she casually crossed her legs. He thought, 'Could it be Yvette? If she helped Rodney, then everything would make perfect sense!

Clearly, Emmett and Samantha had reached the same conclusion. Samantha swallowed nervously, almost bracing herself for the bombshell she was about to hear. She sat down on the couch, stammering, "So, the Eldoria gang... Are they the ones who provided us with the weapons?"

Eagle King glanced at Yvette, knowing there was no need for secrecy among friends.

He nodded. "Who else could it be? Honestly, I don't know what made her take a liking to this little boy, but she's been trying everything to help him.

"If it wasn't for her, how would Eldoria have been willing to provide Rodney with weapons at such a low cost every year?" Eldoria was a major weapons powerhouse, recognized worldwide. A place like Voraxia wouldn't even register on their radar without Yvette's involvement, let alone receiving the latest weapons.

It was all thanks to Yvette, and Rodney owed his rise entirely to her.

After hearing all this, Emmett, Charles, and Samantha all had a clearer understanding.

Samantha looked at Yvette with newfound respect, thinking, 'If anyone was truly impressive here, it was Yvette. She had personally helped a ten-year-old kid rise to the top of Voraxia. That's a story even the biggest braggarts couldn't top! 'If Rodney hadn't shown up, Yvette probably wouldn't have said a word about it. That's a lot to process.

Samantha was taken aback for a moment, then she sighed and said, "Who would've thought that one day I would actually meet the King of Voraxia? And the craziest part is that he's just a kid, barely in his teens. This is insane."

Samantha felt like the best decision she ever made was sticking by Yvette. This wasn't just about broadening her horizons anymore; it was far more than that.

Emmett nodded in agreement. He started thinking about Jeremiah's other identity. He thought, 'What would Yvette think when Jeremiah's true identity is revealed?' He found himself oddly curious about it.

Rodney smiled sweetly at them, his eyes calm as he spoke, "I'm not the King of Voraxia. Yvette is. I'll do whatever she says, even if it means dying."

Yvette lazily lifted her gaze and gave a half-smile. "You should stop watching soap operas."

Rodney pouted, his tone sincere. "I'm serious, Yvette. If you had stayed, the King of Voraxia would've been you. People would have followed you more easily."

The story only Yvette and Rodney knew was that back then, the followers of Hadley had no respect for Rodney. When he announced he was no longer dealing drugs, they rebelled. It was Yvette who visited every single one of them to talk to them.

By the next day, half of the rebels had disappeared, and those who showed up for the meeting eagerly nodded their agreement to Rodney's decision.

As for why so many had disappeared, all those who survived knew it well.
