“Pfft.” Harvey laughed. “You’re from Siam, right?”“Why should I go with you?”The man snarled coldly, “You’ve offended someone you shouldn’t.”Harvey frowned. “Who did I offend?”“Just come with us quickly! Don’t force us to do it the hard way. Don’t blame us if the two ladies behind there get ruined when we accidentally hurt them!”The man was already running out of patience.Although this area was at the outskirts of the city, it was likely that passers-by would drop by. If that happened, they might call the police.If the police came into play, things would be a little troublesome.“I can go with you, but can’t you at least tell me who I have offended?” Harvey questioned righteously.“Fine, I’ll let you know. The person you’ve angered is Young Master Eric Cloude from the Cloude family. He’s the one who hired us to take you away!”The man then immediately yanked open the car door, grabbed Harvey, and then threw Harvey into his van.Harvey did not resist because he was afr
The man lit up a cigarette. He only smiled after blowing out a smoke ring. “Harvey York, Prince York’s representative, the live-in son-in-law of the Zimmers. Am I right?”“Who are you?” Harvey was indifferent.“Let me introduce myself. I’m Eric Cloude.” Eric said politely.“Have I offended you?” Harvey frowned. He truly had no clue about the dispute between him and the Cloudes.“You didn’t offend the Cloude family, but you shouldn’t have offended the Second Young Master.” Eric replied with a smile.“Second Young Master?” Harvey frowned, “Are you talking about that trash Quinton York?”“Huh?” Eric was taken aback for a second. “Did you just call the Second Young Master trash?” What was Quinton’s status in South Light?Even if he was defeated and had retreated to Hong Kong, in truth only few dared to talk of him.“A centipede dies, but never falls.” The Yorks were certainly obstinate.Yet Harvey, who was in front of Eric, had casually called Quinton York trash.Eric was no fo
“They’ve always been vicious. Since Harvey angered them and they took him away, he’s as good as dead.”“You should remarry!”Finn was all smiles. He could barely wait. According to the agreement, that trash Harvey was about to die soon, right?That trash dared to make Finn kneel before him!He definitely deserved to die by the hands of those gangsters!Seeing everyone’s sneers, Mandy grew desperate. She then kneeled in front of Grandma Yates, crying piteously, “Grandmother! No matter what, Harvey is still your grandson-in-law!”“Have you forgotten? Previously on your birthday, he tried his best to give you a gift!”“Even if it’s only because of that reason, please let Uncle save him!”Grandma Yates sneered. “Bribing someone with a mere pill? He must be dreaming!”“Mandy! If you still acknowledge the Yateses as your family, then just turn a blind eye on this matter.”“Wait until the news of his death is confirmed, then go through the formalities for widowhood. Grandmother wi
The Yateses had been waiting for this day for far too long!They were a family of bureaucrats. They were unable to make much progress in the business industry.Due to the lack of funds, they were unable to rise into a top-tier family for a long time.Now that they had Silver Nimbus Enterprise’s equity in their hands, they were one step closer into becoming a top-tier family. To some of the Yateses, right now, they were already a top family. When Keith saw that Mandy had signed the agreement, he immediately dialed his phone. “Is this Yannick Bisson, the Chief Inspector of Buckwood Police Department? I’m Keith Yates.”“My grandson-in-law, Harvey York, was kidnapped by a group of gangsters from Siam. I’ll leave this matter to you. I expect some results within twenty-four hours!”“Yes!”On the other side of the phone, Yannick quickly saluted and went to arrange various things.After hanging up, Keith said nonchalantly, “Just wait for the news quietly. Yannick Bisson is the Chief
Thud!A figure was sent flying, falling straight in front of Eric.Eric’s face, initially full of smiles, instantly darkened. He automatically turned around.When he took in the scene before him, he grew so frightened that he began to tremble. What was going on?Did all the mercenaries just collapse so easily?“You…who are you?!” Eric yelled instinctively. “Who am I? I’m someone you can’t afford to provoke.”“Help me pass this gift to the people behind you. Tell them that this is the consequence of angering me.”Harvey approached Eric.Eric staggered back in fear, petrified. He stammered, “Don’t come!”Crack!Harvey wasn’t interested in exchanging any nonsense with Eric. He stepped forward and kicked Eric’s right leg.“Ugh!”Eric, whose right leg was now broken, rolled on the ground. Harvey, indifferent, continued to stomp on Eric a few more times, instantly breaking all of the latter’s limbs.When did Eric, who had lived a life of extravagance, would face a predicamen
“Harvey, are you alright? They didn’t do anything to you, right?” Mandy didn’t care about anything else and hugged Harvey, studying him carefully.She was so worried, she almost fainted. Had she not been strong enough, she might be lying in the hospital right now.“Honey, I’m fine. Don’t cry, let’s go back.” Harvey gently wiped away the tears from the corner of Mandy’s eyes.He would surely follow-up on this incident until the end, but right now it was inappropriate to say this in front of Mandy.“You should send Halsey to the airport first. She almost missed the plane for your sake.”“I have something to discuss with Uncle and the others.”Mandy said, inhaling deeply.Harvey was a little confused, but he did not think much about it. Instead, he took Halsey away and sent her to the Buckwood International Airport.Meanwhile, Keith asked a lawyer to come and testify to the agreement.“According to the agreement, from this moment on, all the equity that was originally in Miss Man
“What do you mean…?” Grandma Yates pondered slightly.“Mother, we have to complete the act. We’ve just acquired Silver Nimbus Enterprise today. If Harvey gets killed within these two days, Mandy will easily grow suspicious of us.”“While I’m not afraid, if they find out about us while investigating, it’d mean big trouble!”“This time, the Yates family’s gains are huge. Naturally, we must be careful in everything.”Keith didn’t become a hothead just because he had obtained Silver nimbus Enterprise. On the contrary, he remained composed. Grandma Yates said, “We’re fine, but are the Robbinses and the Cloudeses willing to accept this?”“Also, how do we explain this to the Second Young Master?”Keith pondered briefly before flashing a shrewd look. “I’ll let the Buckwood Police Department increase the intensity of patrol and publicize it, with the excuse of preparing for South Light Military’s switch of defenses ceremony.”“As for the Second Young Master, we’ll say that due to the f
After getting along with Harvey these days, Mandy discovered that she had actually accepted Harvey from the bottom of her heart.It was just, there were still some barriers between the two which prevented them from living like a married couple.After this incident, Mandy found that she was unable to leave Harvey.It was especially evident when she saw him taken away by those gangsters. Mandy never wanted to experience that heartrending feeling again. How about taking this opportunity to consummate tonight?Consider it the last memory in this house…? A shy look appeared on Mandy’s originally pale face.Harvey, who was at the side, looked baffled. What was going on with this woman?Weeping one moment, laughing the next, and then being shy again.“Honey, what’s the matter with you? I’m fine, aren’t I?” Harvey automatically comforted her.“Nothing, I just want to cry. Oh, right.” Mandy took the initiative to change the topic. “What do you want to eat tonight? I’ll cook it for y
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
