Buckwood.The news of chief instructor and Oskar Armstrong’s appearance at South Light’s change of defense ceremony was known to everyone already.It’s heard that even the South Lights’ army was excited.The chief instructor was the legend of the army, the living legend. Countless soldiers wanted to see his true face but failed. Who wouldn’t miss an opportunity like this in their lifetime?With senior Oskar there, the duo’s appearance there wouldn’t be just as simple as one plus one equals two!Even Chris Leo was starting to get excited.“This time, if I get to know the chief instructor, maybe we as the Leos of Hong Kong, will be able to use this chance to step onto the other three top families beneath us!”“And I’ll get to step onto Quinton York till he dies too!”Keith Yates was all enthusiastic and eager as well. “If I manage to have the chief instructor as my back and support, then it wouldn’t be a dream for me to become the South Lights’ first-in-command anymore!”Even th
Looking for an office building was neither a big nor too small of a task.Harvey York did not use Sky Corporation’s connections either. Instead, he called Tara Lewis after thinking about it.“Tara, you are in the real estate business. Please help me find out if there are any unused office buildings in the center of Buckwood City for sale.”“Huh? What are you looking for?” Tara was curious.“Isn’t Mandy’s company very popular recently? She takes this opportunity to expand the business scope and recruit talented people. So, I want to buy an office building for her to use.”Harvey answered casually.On the other side of the phone, Tara remained silent for a long time.She regretted it again.If she did not have acted superior in front of Harvey or had just chased Harvey back then, would she have such a good husband as well?Tara threw away unrealistic thoughts in her mind after sighing. She then said, “Don’t worry, my old classmate. I will surely help you on this.”Tara started
Tara Lewis had already estimated the value of this office building before coming.If the building were estimated according to the highest price in the industry, it would only cost 310 million dollars.However, this guy wanted 777 million as soon as he opened his mouth, which was much more expensive than the market value. Ridiculous! It was way overpriced. Harvey knew that the price was indeed inappropriate after seeing Tara’s expression. He smiled at this moment and said, “Sir Bowie, we’re businessmen. We value integrity.”“This price is too ridiculous, isn’t it?”Although he was wealthy, he was surely not short of this amount of money.However, he could not be fooled, right?David squinted his eyes and said, “If you want to find a cheap office building, there’s a lot outside of this area!”“This location is good, so the price is high. I want to sell it to you at a lower price, but I can’t!”Harvey said, “We really want it. But 777 million dollars for this building is way too
“What?”Tara Lewis was a little confused. She did not understand what he meant by that response.Looking at her charming appearance, David Bowie could not help it. He laughed and said, “Miss Lewis, don’t you understand what I mean?“I have been divorced for several years, and I have not been in a new relationship because I couldn’t find a suitable partner.“My evenings tend to be lonely now!“Miss Lewis, please help me solve this problem.”With that, David opened the door to the inside. Inside was a room fitted with a bed inside.“Come on! After that, I will sign a contract with you and sell it to you for 310 million dollars!”David chuckled and said, with an impatient and lustful look.“Sir Bowie, such a joke isn’t funny at all!” Tara’s face was extremely awful.She had been wallowing in society for so many years. There were just too many people who wanted to hit on her.However, those people were gentlemen. They were just looking for a chance to pursue her.Those people w
David Bowie felt that he had arranged everything properly.Boom!At this moment, suddenly, a loud noise came from the office door. The closed door was kicked wide open at this moment.David, who was inside the office, was taken aback.Tara was also shocked. She knew that Harvey York was amazing, but she never thought that he was this amazing.Was this something that humans could do?At this moment, Harvey had already walked in and came in front of David.As for the few thugs, they were already lying sprawled on the ground.Slap!Harvey slapped David in the face until he was thrown upside down, hitting the wall, and seven teeth were knocked out.“You! How dare you hit me?! Do you know who I am? Do you know who my benefactor is?“You’re dead! I promise that you would end up badly!”David got used to being arrogant. Although he was slurring at this moment, he still pointed at Harvey and yelled.Harvey laughed. “It’s been a long time since I heard anyone talk to me like this.
Soon, a man in embroidered shirt and a cigar in his mouth came in. He said as he walked, “David, you have always treated me with filial respect.“I’ll also keep my word. I’ll help you take care of this matter.“But since I’m here, you aren’t going to let me go back empty-handed, right?”This person was Sean Bill, one of the big bosses of the streets in South light. The nearby area was his territory.To be blunt, he was also the one who watched over David. At this moment, David hurriedly took out a pile of cash and said, “Brother Sean Bill, since your men are here, their hard work would not be in vain. Please take it. The pleasure is all mine.”He handed over the pile of cash while talking.One of Sean Bill’s men took it and nodded at Sean.Sean then said indifferently, “So David, tell me what’s going on?”David pointed in Harvey’s direction and said, “Brother Sean, this is the guy. Not only he ruined my good time, but he also slapped me!”Sean first glanced at Tara. His eyes t
Sean Bill waved his hand at this moment and took a puff of his cigarette. “Interesting. No one has dared to be arrogant in front of me for so many years.“I will write the two words, Sean Bill, upside down if I don’t personally break your hands and legs.”Sean walked to the front of the crowd while talking.David Bowie sneered at Harvey York, “You actually managed to get Brother Sean to ruin you himself. You’re dead!”Tara Lewis sighed in her heart and unconsciously wanted to stop in front of Harvey.She felt that everything was over. She might have to die with Harvey today.Pfff!The next moment, when Sean saw Harvey’s face clearly, his knee softened, and he instantly kneeled in front of Harvey.This scene made everyone dumbfounded.David was dumbfounded.Tara was dumbfounded.All of Sean’s men were also dumbfounded.This scene did not seem realistic at all. It was just like a dream.The evil and fierce Sean Bill, the big boss from the streets, actually kneeled to Harvey.
“Umm!”Sean Bill’s cold sweat came down his forehead. However, he did not dare to scream or struggle. Instead, he said in a cold sweat, “I will feed my finger to the dogs after I go out later.”Harvey York, non-committal, watched this scene.Looking sour, Sean turned around, glared at the other thugs, and said, “All of you break off your finger!”The next moment, those thugs were trembling, and they did it themselves.They had no choice. Their Big Brother was being scared like this. If they did not do it, they might not be able to get out later.Tara Lewis looked at this scene in disbelief. Harvey just said a single sentence, and all those people from the streets broke their fingers.While waiting until everyone was done, Sean kneeled in front of Harvey and said humbly, “Sir, do you have your eyes on this office building?”Harvey said undeniably, “It’s not bad, but someone raised the price of this place to 777 million dollars and even asked my friend to sleep with him before he
Harvey stood behind Clarion as he looked at all these men and women in their luxurious outfits. Other than the heirs of the large families from Grand City, Harvey could not really tell how powerful they were. Harvey even noticed quite a few mutant elites from Country A. All of them gathered together and all the topics they discussed about were extremely sophisticated, making them feel that they were the most important individuals in this world.Other than these people, she saw a woman wearing purple traditional garb in the middle of the group. She could not tell the woman's age, but her figure was slender and curvaceous. She carried an esteemed imposition. Or perhaps, it was better to describe her imposition as queen-like.She held an exquisite hookah in her hand that was made from gold. She would sometimes take a puff before blowing out a stream of smoke, as if she were some kind of empress.Quite a few men would glance at her before averting their eyes, as if they were too afraid
Every word Clarion heard from Jade made his expression turn even darker. When she finished, Clarion almost wanted to stomp on the woman even as he suppressed his anger. Just when Clarion was going to slap Jade in the face as she deserved, Neve stopped him.Neve then took a golden card from her Hermes handbag and gave it to Jade. "I have a member card. This is the card your madam gave to me when the Platinum Casino was first established. I believe you will accept this."Neve never paid much attention to the card when she first received it and simply kept it in her handbag. She did not expect it to have some use today. "This is one out of the fifty member cards the casino gave out at the beginning. I was told it gives me the highest privilege. You won't deny this, will you?"While Neve was smiling, her words were cold and harsh. "If you won't, then I can assume the Platinum Casino has a problem with the Fosters of the Universal Sect. I will then report this to my grandfather."Clario
The woman was beaming at Clarion and said, "Everyone knows who you are in Grand City, sir. My name is Jade Bierstadt, and I'm your biggest fan. Although I'm a fan, I still need to obey the rules here. It will be bad for society if everyone can simply break the rules, right?"In other words, it's not because I have something against you. But it's because I have no choice as this is my duty. Since I'm making a living here, I need to perform my duties to earn my salary, correct? So, please forgive us and show us workers some mercy. But if you must ignore the rules here, then I'm afraid I'll have no choice…"And then, Jade gently clapped her hands. A group of men-in-black slowly walked out of the VIP passage after that. There were also some clicking sounds from the high ground some distance away, as several men started to parade their sniper rifles.The Platinum Casino had truly demonstrated their superiority today.Harvey narrowed his eyes. He had quickly determined that whether it wa
Vroom!When the sun was setting, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class slowly stopped in front of the Platinum Casino.Clarion was extremely against Harvey wanting to help Hale, but in the end, he still could not resist Harvey's insistence. He had no choice but to take Harvey to see Camellia.This was because Clarion genuinely meant well toward Harvey.No matter how it looked, Harvey had been surrounded by enemies ever since he had arrived in Grand City. In this kind of situation, Clarion hoped that Harvey would have a few enemies left.At the very least, they should have a talk before going for each other's throat.Of course, Harvey had no hope that anything could be achieved by talking. However, when he saw how Clarion was thinking of him, he believed he should at least make the effort to meet the legendary Queen Bee Camellia and see if they could actually talk things out.Clarion also felt relieved when he saw that Harvey was willing to talk. He even invited Neve to be there too, hoping th
"If I remember correctly, Dan is also a True Warrior elite, correct? Is he not interested in this Chapter of Ascension? He didn't have a hand in this?" asked Harvey when he remembered something else.Clarion smirked. "Well… How should I put this? Of course, everyone who practices martial arts will be interested in the Chapter of Ascension. One becomes practically invincible once one can step into that level. Once a person reaches that stage, all the politicking and schemes will become pointless, since they're nothing before absolute power."However, Clarion heaved a sigh. "Unfortunately, one cannot instantly become a master when it comes to martial arts. The Chapter of Ascension is indeed something very beneficial, but it also causes more harm than good. Unless someone possesses extreme power, those who have it in their possession will be attacked by everyone else."This doesn't only apply to Grand City. Even when one is outside of Grand City, there will be countless factions and el
"Alright, enough talk," interrupted Harvey as he changed the subject. "Why would someone like Camellia be interested in Hale? Even if he was once a martial arts prodigy, so what? Don't tell me one of the Seven Families of Grand City is interested in his martial arts manuals."Clarion's expression was obviously hesitant. He wanted to say something, but he could not decide. Harvey did not force him, however. Harvey calmly reasoned, "If it's something you can say, say it. But if you can't, then just stay quiet. I won't force you when it comes to things like this."Clarion sighed. "It's not that I can't say it. It's just that this involves too many people. It's extremely complicated. I'm worried you can't climb back up because it goes so deep."Harvey calmly replied, "Don't worry. Forget about Grand City. Few things in this world can make me worry about it being too complicated."Clarion scoffed but still whispered. "I'll be direct. Everything I say to you right now can't be proven by
"Camellia?" Harvey said with a faint smile. "That sounds like the name of an ordinary housewife. Anything special about her?"Clarion's eyes twitched before saying, "Camellia is one of our distant relatives. When she was young, she was called the "Queen Bee". It was said that when she was young, the reason she fought was to make her opponents into her servants. If Grand City had a criminal underworld, then Camellia would be the queen of this underworld. "I've already cleaned up the car park, so Platinum Casino probably won't know what happened yet. However, Camellia has too many contacts in Grand City. It won't take long before she finds out it's you."Clarion hesitated for a little before continuing, "Mr. Representative, while you're very strong, Camellia's just too much of a pervert. I have a feeling that you two will see each other soon. Either you find a way to make peace with her, or you hide. If you do become enemies, then she won't stop until either one of you is dead."It
"Bastard!" All the men in black exchanged a glance and all pounced at Harvey with a dagger. Harvey looked like he could fight, but they were sure that one man couldn't win a fight when outnumbered.They were going to use their numbers to kill Harvey.Slap! Smack! Slap!Harvey didn't let them have their way and immediately slapped the men in black. He struck all of them onto the ground with one slap each.It was just a simple slap, but Harvey made their faces swollen and destroyed their self-confidence. They couldn't understand how despite being so slender, Harvey could fight so well.Forget about retaliation. They couldn't even avoid a slap from Harvey!The woman instantly pointed her gun at Harvey and sneered coldly, "You brainless, ignorant fool. You don't understand who you've crossed and what crime you have committed!"Slap!Before she could finish, Harvey had already appeared in front of her and slapped her away too. She screamed, thrown into midair, her back slamming ag
The woman who was drinking coffee frowned. It was obvious she was very unhappy with Havey's sudden interference."Kid, don’t you know you shouldn't meddle in affairs that don't concern you?" The bald man glanced at Harvey, disdain on his face. "There are many times when those who meddle in others' affairs die horribly."The bald man gestured to his men and the three of them pounced at Harvey, obviously wanting to teach him a lesson. However, they had just gotten a little closer when Harvey took a step forward.It was just a simple move, but the woman who was drinking coffee froze before yelling, "Baldie! Watch out!"The bald man was also instantly soaked with sweat. Harvey was just too fast! He never imagined someone could move so fast. Before he could even retreat, Harvey had already appeared right in front of him and slapped him.Smack!There was a loud smack, and Harvey's hand had already hit his face. The bald man's head slammed onto the ground, blood instantly flowing from
