"My father's dead and the Harvey family is gone... No way... no way..."
Edmund Harvey's body began to tremble violently upon hearing Nathan's words.
Just then, Dean Zannis walked over and glared at him. "Edmund Harvey, your family was involved in a murder case along with the Griffins and the Zanes."
"Mark Zane, Fletcher Harvey, and Jeremiah Donne have been shot dead by commander-in-chief General Ziegler. The members of all three families are under arrest, including you.”
"No... no way...my dad went to find General Ziegler to help us get rid of Nathan Cross... why would he kill my dad?" Edmund Harvey muttered with a terrified look on his face. "You're lying...you're definitely lying!"
Chris Gore walked up to him and growled, "Edmund Harvey! Cooperate or else!"
All hope was lost for Edmund once he saw Chris in his West Army uniform.
Both Nathan and Dean might have been lying, but there was no way Chris would bluff him on this.
Chris was the right-hand man of Lucas Ziegler, after all.
Looks like the Harvey family is done for...
With the last bit of hope draining out of him, he fell to the ground at Nathan and Penny's feet with a loud thud.
Following that, his men raised their hands in surrender.
Nathan glanced at Edmund before turning to Dean and Chris. "Take all of them back and punish them severely for their crimes."
"Yes, Sir!" they chorused.
When the General himself gave the verdict to the Harveys, Griffins, and Zanes, the West would be free of their tyranny for the foreseeable future.
Soon, Edmund and his men were led away.
