“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
Mandy fell into a daze when she listened to Harvey’s words.Was it true that she was deceived? Did Harvey get away by himself?Thinking about it carefully, the time frame did not seem to match. Keith did mention that the results of the investigation would be known within twenty-four hours.However, Harvey re-appeared within an hour.“Harvey, what are you thinking? You’re still bragging!”“Do you know who took you away? Those are gangsters from the borders of Ohio! Those guys kill without blinking!”“If it weren’t for the Yateses, who control the police in South Light, sending out many inspectors to find you and causing tremendous pressure on those gangsters, how would you still be alive?!”“You’d probably end up as a corpse!”“Didn’t you see that the people on the streets are from the police department? Buckwood’s security was raised for your sake!”Both Simon and Lilian assumed that they had known the whole story. Hence, they were livid right now. In their opinion, Harvey’s
Harvey’s bold words rendered Simon and Lilian dumbfounded.After some time, Simon sighed and lamented, “Forget it. At this point, we won’t say anything anymore.”“It’s not an easy day for you today. Take a good rest.”After that, Simon dragged Lilian away.Disappointed!There was only disappointment in their hearts!Evn in this kind of situation, Harvey still talked big. They couldn’t be bothered to say anything more at this moment.To them, a person like Harvey was utterly hopeless.Mandy smiled. “Honey, don’t make fun of me.”“In the future, let’s think of a way to start a small business. It won’t be difficult to survive if we do our part.”“If it doesn’t work, we’ll go sell on the streets. Haven’t we been engaged in the street stall vendors recently? How about starting tonight?”Mandy would always do what she said, and had a strong drive.She then went online to search for several small commodity wholesale markets nearby, and then took Harvey to stock the goods with inte
Mandy’s face went somewhat dark. She never expected that she would meet someone as wretched and disgusting as Nick when she set up this stall.“Manager Lachey, I think the stockings in your hands aren’t that good.”“Yeah!”Nick must have repeatedly mentioned Mandy in front of his subordinates.Not only did he harbor a deep resentment against Mandy for firing him, but he had always lusted over her.Harvey walked out from behind, frowning when he saw Nick.Seeing how Mandy was selling at the stall so happily, he had no intentions to stop her. Yet this guy came out of nowhere, intending to sabotage her, which made Harvey a little angry.Harvey’s eyes were cold. His gaze alone sent a chill throughout Nick’s body.Mandy was shocked to see Harvey. She hurriedly whispered, “Harvey, ignore these guys. We’re here to do business. As the saying goes, peace breeds wealth.”Apparently, she was afraid that Harvey would beat them up and land into trouble afterwards.She was no longer the
The expression on Nick’s face grew even more smug when he heard Mandy talking humbly like this.“CEO Zimmer, since you say it that way, then I’ll have to watch over your business.”“All these stockings, I want them!”Nick looked more despicable when he finished speaking. “I want to buy a pair too!”“Hahaha…!”Nick’s subordinates laughed wretchedly. Their eyes fell on Mandy, full of desire.Nick grinned maliciously and said, “Mandy, I heard you already gave away all of Silver Nimbus Enterprise’s equity. That means you have nothing left now. Maybe you can’t even rent a house!”“How about this? Recently, our company's looking for a secretary for me. Seven hundred and eighty dollars a month.”“I haven’t found a suitable candidate yet. If you behave well, I could give that position to you!”“But you have to remember one condition of being my secretary. You have to sleep with me!”Harvey couldn’t hold back anymore. This guy was too filthy. Right now, Harvey wanted nothing more th
Nick hastily got up from the ground.He was livid and humiliated. He took out his phone and pressed the dial button.“Brother Fly, it’s me, Nick!”“I was beaten by a street vendor in the pedestrian street!”“This is your turf. You must come and give me justice!”Everyone’s expressions changed when they heard Brother Fly’s name.After a while, someone could not help saying, “Hey, boss. This Brother Fly you mentioned, could he be the big boss of the pedestrian street?”“You’re quite knowledgeable. Yeah, it’s that Brother Fly!”“Brother Fly is one of the big bosses on the streets. He watches over the pedestrian street!”“He’s my big brother!”Nick had a triumphant expression on his face.Many people’s expressions changed drastically at this statement. As of this moment, some of the street vendors’ complexions were extremely awful.A few kind stall owners couldn’t help but exclaim, “Girl, hurry up and go!”“Brother Fly isn’t that simple! Everyone who sets up a stall here has t
Blade took a deep breath. He remembered his own duty and stood in front of Clarion, shielding him. Then, he said with a cold expression on his face, "Madam, Mr. Zeon, my apologies. However, as I'm currently the Assistant Hallmaster and Clarion is my superior, it's my duty to protect him. May I ask how he offended the two of you to the point that he pressed the red button?"Blade put on the face of someone who was only doing his job. He was loyal to his duties.Clarion's expression changed. He did not realize that Blade was a Jackson. However, since Blade chose duty over his personal ties, it was enough to calm Clarion down.Whoosh!At the moment when everything was at a standstill, Zeon suddenly stepped forward and appeared right before the crowd. He immediately slapped Blade's face.Slap!He slapped Blade so hard and loud that Blade stumbled backward as he was not on his guard and almost fell on the floor. Luckily, Clarion reacted quickly and helped Blade up. Otherwise, Blade wo
"I'll give you one last chance to answer me. If you refuse, it won't be my fault for not showing you any mercy." Camellia's pretty face became colder as she stared at Clarion before waving her right hand.After what she did, she saw all the security from Platinum Casino stepped forward, as if they were ready to make a move at any time.Clarion smiled. "Looks like not only have you captured him, it doesn't sound like you're going to release him at all. Looks like I mean nothing to you madam!"Camellia sat down back on the sofa as she folded her legs once more. She raised her chin as she looked at Clarion, coldly saying, "You're right. You mean nothing to me. What? Are you going to go mad? Do it, then! Show it to me! I'm curious to see just what our Young Master Clarion Parker can do to make a scene!"Clarion took a deep breath and coldly replied, "Don't blame me for this, then!"After that, Clarion's right hand pulled out a small red button and pressed it.Vroom!As soon as he di
"All your casino shares?" Camellia stroked her chin as she gave Clarion a meaningful smile. "If I remember, they all add up to hundreds of millions of dollars, and the interest you gain annually is also quite substantial. Without that, your worth as the heir of Parkerville will drop significantly."Looks like Hale probably saved your life. Otherwise, you wouldn't have paid such a price for a garbage like him," Camellia's eyes were judgmental when she said those words. She stared at Clarion curiously, wanting to see something from his actions and expressions.Unfortunately, Clarion maintained his cool and indifference."Madam, it'll take a long time to talk about the relationship between us. Hence, there's no need for me to explain everything here. All I want to ask is, will you accept this trade?"Camellia once again walked over to Clarion's side and bent closer, whispering in his ears. "Of course I'm willing, since you're offering me so much. Unfortunately, since I don't have Hale
When Clarion saw how Camellia pushed her face closer to his face, he had to use so much effort to stop himself from immediately slapping her.Harvey's expression was also getting colder as he stared at Camellia. He had to admit it. If she was willing, she could easily make many people furious. That was why Harvey calmed himself down even more and was not rushing to make his move. Instead, he calmly observed Clarion, wanting to see how he would deal with this.He believed this simple confrontation would make Clarion grow quickly. It would be a good thing if there was someone who could compete with Dan among the heirs of Grand City.Slap!When Camellia saw that Clarion would not touch her, she smiled coldly and once again slapped Clarion on the face."Pathetic! You really are useless! No wonder Dan openly admitted that someone like you is not qualified to be his right-hand man!" Camellia publicly humiliated Clarion's character and dignity.A man who would not even resist was worse
"I also know why you captured Hale. But madam… A simple thought is all it takes. If Hale had mastered the so-called Chapter of Ascension, he would already be invincible in this world. He wouldn't fall into someone's grasp so easily," said Clarion as if he was explaining Camellia for her own good."Not to mention that possessing the Chapter itself is simply going to bring you trouble. I'm also saving you by taking Hale away. I hope you'll agree to my decision. This is really for your own good."Camellia let out a cold laugh when she heard Clarion's reasoning. "Judah, aren't you a little too confident of yourself? You attacked my people, threatened me to release the man, and said this is for my own good? Since when has Parkerville stopped practicing martial arts and started to teach acting skills instead?"Camellia walked over and immediately slapped Clarion on the face. "You fool! Do you think I will act for your sake?"Slap!Clarion could not help but take a few steps back, his fa
"Clarion, you've always been a good boy. You can always read the atmosphere whenever you do something," Camellia said to Clarion with a sweet smile. "The reason you came to my Platinum Casino must be because you're ready to pass your position in Earth Hall back to my son, correct? If that's the case, I don't mind accepting it. But if it's something else, my apologies then. I don't have the strength to care about anything else now that I'm too worried about my son."Zeon gave Clarion a dry smile. "You do understand what she's talking about, right? Now, quickly give us the power over Earth Hall. That way, we have some room for discussion. Otherwise…"Then, Zeon put something thumb-sized on the coffee table. Quite a few people raised their eyebrows when they saw what it was. It was the Martial Art Weapon, Thunderblast!That bastard really was quite crazy. He did not even prepare any precaution when handling something like the Thunderblast, walking around with it so recklessly. Was he n
Before Clarion could even decide, Neve already forced her way forward and shielded Clarion behind her. She yelled at Zeon, "Stop pushing it, Zeon! Enough is enough! Do you really think you can have your way with us?!"Zeon gave a wicked smile and wanted to say something when Camellia, who had been watching things unfold, clapped her hands. She instantly attracted everyone's attention, and her delicate voice rang. "Zeon, that's enough. Clarion is still a member of Grand City, regardless of what had happened. We've raised him for so long, he wouldn't kneel and grovel before another man just because he was being waved at, right?"Trust him. He won't be such a doormat, will he? Not to mention that if you let him lick your shoe, he's going to ruin it. This is something I bought for you from Givenchy, so stop wasting it. Not to mention, if Mr. Otto finds out about this, what would you do if he fainted? You have to pay some respect to our elders, alright?"Then, Camellia gave Clarion a dee
"Now… Do you think I won't have the guts to kill you?" Zeon then spun the pistol in his hand using his finger and then pointed it at Clarion's forehead again. He thought he looked cool doing that.Then, his finger slowly tightened around the trigger, and the spring in the trigger was pulled tight, ready to fire. Even Clarion, who fancied himself as someone who did not fear death, could feel his breathing becoming rapid.It was obvious that Zeon really wanted to kill Clarion as his murderous intention flared.While it was well known that White Peak was filled with all kinds of madmen, they did not expect Zeon to be so terrifying when he lost his mind!Neve already wanted to step forward to stop it, but the muzzle on her head made her scared of making any sudden moves. Meanwhile, Harvey simply looked at what was happening calmly.Now was not the time to make a move. Others might believe that Zeon would really pull the trigger, but Harvey understood much about these heirs who were al
Clarion cleared his throat as he caught everyone's attention before bowing at Camellia. "Hello, madam. Please forgive me for dropping by unannounced."Before Camellia could even say anything, Zeon already smiled coldly at him. He stood up and walked over to Clarion and patted Clarion's face as he said in an icy tone, "And you do realize you're not invited? If you want to apologize, show us your sincerity. You can start with prostrating. I believe the madam won't put too much blame on you."All the men and women sneeringly looked at Clarion. It would be rare to see the heir from a huge family in Grand City prostrate. Quite a few already instinctively pulled out their phone, wanting to take photos of it.When Neve saw what had happened, she frowned. "Are you an idiot, Zeon? Why do you think Clarion will kneel?""He won't?" Zeon scoffed, pulled out a pistol, and immediately put the muzzle on Clarion's head. "Now, will you kneel?"Clarion was also someone with a temper. He glared at Z
