After walking out of the villa, Harvey York dialled a number once again. This time, the call was answered very quickly. On the other side, Yvonne Xavier answered with an apologetic tone, “Mr. York, I was at the underground parking just now, my cellphone had no signal,” “It’s alright, you can come and fetch me now,” Harvey said calmly. Since he did not have any place to go tonight, it would be nice if he went to rest at the office instead. “Huh? Alright, where are you, Mr. York? I’ll be there immediately.” Yvonne was obviously stunned for a while but she quickly opened her mouth and responded. Harvey told her the address before hanging up. In less than ten minutes, a red Ferrari stopped by Harvey’s side and the car window was lowered. Not knowing since when Yvonne changed into a leather top and miniskirt ensemble, she looked at Harvey bashfully and said, “Mr. York, I was about to go for a drive when you called me, so I could not change in time.”“It’s alright, am I disturbing yo
At this time, Wyatt Johnson who was behind her walked to the front and said while smiling, “This lady looks unfamiliar. You have probably just come to Niumhi not long ago. Miss, how should I address you? There are some people in Niumhi who like to goof around. You must be careful, don’t mess around with them, they are very disgusting. If you need anything, miss, I can bring you around our shopping area. I am the manager of the Northland Restaurant and I am very familiar with this area.”Obviously, Wyatt was very interested in a beauty like Yvonne Xavier who also happened to drive a Ferrari. She seemed like she had a remarkable status by a mere glance. If he could hit on her, wouldn’t he be able to own both beauty and wealth?Initially, Harvey York did not want to bother them, but those two were just too annoying. He couldn’t help but glance at Wyatt and said, “Hey Johnson, can a restaurant waiter like you stop boasting about what you don’t have? Why would my people have to be associa
Yvonne Xavier was too lazy to give Cecilia Zachary a glance. Instead, she glared at Wyatt Johnson coldly and said, “Who cares if I smacked you? A mere waiter of a restaurant boasting around in front of me? Your mouth is as filthy as the toilet, who should I smack if it was not you?”At this moment, Yvonne had already returned to her usual cold temperament. It only costed her a glance and a sentence to spook Wyatt out.The jaws of the crowd dropped in awe.“F*ck, this beautiful girl’s temper is hot!”“She is totally my goddess, I like this personality to the max!”“Normal people are not worthy for a woman like her. People like us can only dream about it!”Many of them started to murmur, but they did not dare to say it out loudly. Obviously, they were afraid that Yvonne would fling a slap if she heard them and they would have no rights to argue.Then, when nobody was noticing, Yvonne sneaked a glance at Harvey York, who was leaning on the Ferrari. She only felt slightly relieved t
“Chick, didn’t you hear what I said? On usual occasions, I would take my time to play with you, but today I am in a bad mood...” Zayn Lewis squinted his eyes. He could vaguely see Yvonne Xavier’s hot body and flawless face. Although he felt that she seemed familiar, he did not care too much about it.Wyatt Johnson who was behind him laughed arrogantly, bending back and forth.Hearing his laughter, Zayn squinted his eyes and looked at the blurry figure leaning on the car not far away. He gave a sinister laugh and said, “Little Wyatt, how do you want to deal with that brat?”Wyatt still saw Harvey York’s indifferent look, fury surged through his heart instantly. He glared at Harvey and said coldly, “We are civilized people. Let’s be civilized today. Just let him kneel down, grovel for a few times, and call me master for a couple of times more!”“Hey brat, did you hear that? Kneel down by yourself, or else…” Zayn made a gesture with his uninjured hand.In an instant, those security g
Whack!That kick landed on Zayn Lewis’ face. It was a beautiful kick and everyone was dazzled by it. Zayn was hurled up the air instantly. He spun a few rounds mid-air before he smashed into the flowerbed by the roadside. By witnessing this scene, everyone was stunned. Even those security guards were stupefied.Not long after, gasps were heard continuously. “This beautiful woman is awesome!”“Judging by her skills, she must at least own a black belt in Taekwondo, right?”After being stunned for a moment, those security guards then rushed to her fiercely one by one. They had no choice as their boss was beaten up, they could not possibly just stand there and watch. “Stop! Everyone stop!” Although Zayn had already spit out a broken tooth, he was almost scared to death. When Yvonne Xaview opened her mouth, he finally recognized this familiar and beautiful woman! The secretary of the CEO of York Enterprise! She was a big shot whom he would bootlick at usual occasions!Beat her
“Mr. Lewis… No, no, no… Brother Lewis…” Wyatt Johnson was reluctant to accept it. “Have you forgotten what you told me this afternoon? You said I could be under your wing, you said it yourself.”Zayn Lewis quivered out of fear. He rebuked, “Under my wing, my *ss! Guards, beat him up! If he doesn’t get on the ground tonight, all of you will be fired!”The security guards, who were all rushing over initially, were befuddled. The plot was too complicated, they could not understand the situation!Zayn was not satisfied. He glanced at Yvonne Xavier respectfully. When he saw her icy glare, he shivered. He clenched his teeth and said, “Are you f*cking blind? Don’t you know who this lady is? She is my immediate superior, and you f*cking asked me to mess with her!”“What?!”The onlookers were stunned. Even Wyatt had forgotten to shriek, he looked at Yvonne in shock with his mouth agape.A person like Zayn was already a badass in the community, this lady was even his superior, then how b
“Your wife, your wife…” Wyatt Johnson said with his teeth clenched.“Good boy! Harvey York half-squatted down and patted Wyatt’s cheek. “Now you know that you can also be successful by being a kept man. By kneeling down before a wretch like me, you are even worse than a wretch!”After finishing his sentence, Harvey was too lazy to bother Wyatt. He turned around and left. He still had to buy a cellphone, how could he waste his time here?Yvonne Xavier glared at Zayn Lewis fiercely and quickly followed Harvey without saying another word. “Pull this brat away, break his leg and throw him at the entrance of the hospital!” Zayn bellowed and staggered up to his feet.“No! Don’t!” Wyatt wailed.As for Cecilia Zachary, nobody knew where she went missing, why would she bother staying around Wyatt anyway?***Moments later at the hospital’s entrance, a figure with a broken leg was thrown out from a van. Wyatt raised his arms and looked at the sky with a hideous look. “Harvey York! Don’t
Yvonne Xavier followed him from behind with a concerned look on her face. She was a beauty after all and just by walking behind Harvey York at that time, she caught everyone’s eyes. “Sir, it was my responsibility. From now on, I will definitely take good care of my subordinates.” Yvonne noticed that Harvey was only concentrating on his phone so she could only speak to him from behind while bowing slightly.“Is it?” Harvey spoke nonchalantly, “This isn’t the first time.”Yvonne was about to cry out of desperation. She said, “Sir, just forgive me for this time. You gave me the life I have now and I have always been loyal to you. I beg you to give me another chance. Please.”Harvey spoke indifferently, “Actually, I have never blamed you. In all these years, you have worked for the York family conscientiously. It wasn’t an easy task for you as well to build the foundation for this company in my place. However, have you not pampered your men a little too much?”“Sir, I promise that th
Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil
Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai
Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas
"Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane
Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
