Freya hurriedly turned her head to look at Connor, signaling him not to continue speaking.
After all, the Yearwood family had already made its stance clear regarding the matters between Connor and the three major families. They needed to maintain a neutral position.
But if Connor kept on going, he might anger the Yearwood family, leading them to join forces with the other three major families against him.
At that point, he might truly be left with no way out.
However, upon hearing Tom's words, Connor's expression beca sowhat disdainful. He stepped forward, his face expressionless, and said, "What's so great about the Yearwood family? In my eyes, you are nothing..."
Tom's expression seed even angrier after hearing this, and he shouted loudly at Connor, "How dare you insult our Yearwood family?"
"And what can you do about insulting the Yearwood family?" Connor sneered, continuing, "You are rely a small Yearwood family, and you an nothing in my eyes. What's the situation of your Yearwood family? Don't you know it yourselves? If it weren't for Grayson, the pinnacle-rank warrior, supporting your Yearwood family, you would have already beco a second-rate small family long ago..."
"You..." Tom was left dumbfounded.
"In simpler terms, your Yearwood family's situation is bleak. Over the years, there has been no progress in martial arts among the descendants of the Yearwood family. Most of them are ordinary people, and you only have Grayson as a pinnacle-rank warrior. The reason why your Yearwood family holds its current position is due to the convenience brought by martial arts. However, once Grayson is no longer here, your Yearwood family will soon be assimilated by the other three major families. The truth is, your Yearwood family doesn't have any other foundation or background. That's your biggest, and most fatal, weakness. You rely too much on Grayson..."
Connor's expression remained cold and emotionless as he spoke.
The guests present were all surprised and had never expected Connor to speak like this.
"In fact, your Yearwood family has already realized this, which is why you have given up on martial arts and have been focusing on expanding your company's business in recent years. Your aim is to gain more influence in the business world. However, your Yearwood family entered this ga too late and couldn't gain a foothold. Even if your Yearwood family has many companies, they are nothing more than superficial appearances. Once these companies lose Grayson's support, they can be easily swallowed by others..."
Connor paused for a mont and continued, "So, there's no need for your Yearwood family to act arrogantly in front of . Compared to , your Yearwood family is far, far inferior. Others might fear your Yearwood family, but in my eyes, your Yearwood family ans nothing..."
"You..." Tom stared at Connor, his eyes filled with shock.
"What are you talking about? Don't you think what I said is right?" Connor asked expressionlessly.
"These are just nonsense!" The elders of the Yearwood family shouted at Connor.
"Whether it's nonsense or not, you know it better than ..." Connor said calmly.
He had obtained all this information from Qin Lan, who was also a pinnacle-rank warrior.
Moreover, Qin Lan's background was quite formidable, making it easy for her to gather this information.
After hearing this information, Connor understood why Grayson was so eager to have Freya marry Will.
In reality, Grayson was well aware of the current situation of the Yearwood family.
The Yearwood family needed to find a true backer to stabilize their position and avoid being swallowed up by other families.
Everything the Yearwood family had now was because of Grayson's status as a pinnacle-rank warrior. In the future, they would also need another pinnacle-rank warrior to support the Yearwood family.
If Grayson couldn't find a suitable backer before he died, the Yearwood family would be at the rcy of other major families once he was gone.
Over the years, the Yearwood family had offended too many forces, but they hadn't acted against the Yearwood family only because they were afraid of Grayson. However, once Grayson was gone, the Yearwood family would lose its last layer of protection.
Freya was also shocked, looking at Connor with astonishnt. She didn't understand why Connor would say such things.
"Shut up!" Tom's expression was furious as he shouted at Connor.
"This person is too much! Quickly get him out of here..." All the Yearwood family mbers present had extrely changed expressions upon hearing Connor's words. After all, Connor's words were humiliating the Yearwood family in front of so many guests, and they couldn't tolerate it, especially when those words were true.
Indeed, Connor's words struck the hearts of all the Yearwood family mbers present.
Yet Grayson remained quiet throughout the entire ordeal, sitting there silently.
However, he was also very shocked. He had always looked down on Connor, thinking that Connor's strength was rely due to inheriting a large fortune.
But he had never expected that Connor could see through the current situation of the Yearwood family so easily.
All this information was confidential to the Yearwood family, only accessible to the top echelon, and unknown to the common Yearwood family mbers.
Indeed, although the Yearwood family was a martial arts family, they hadn't focused on martial arts training over the years.
Hence, apart from himself, no other pinnacle-rank warriors had erged.
For a martial arts family, if they didn't have strong martial artists to support them, no matter how well their businesses were doing or how much profit their companies made, it would all be in vain.
Once Grayson passed away, the Yearwood family would not be able to sustain such a large family. Their final outco would undoubtedly be to be swallowed up by other major families.
This was why Grayson was so eager to have Freya marry Will. The Washington family, where Will was from, was a genuine martial arts family with many pinnacle-rank warriors.
If Freya married Will, at least it could ensure that the Yearwood family's businesses would not be swallowed up by other major families in the next few years.
This was the best solution Grayson could co up with for now.
