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
Brother Fly sneered, “Setting up a stall on my turf without paying the protection fee? Interesting!”“It’s been a long time since I met a person who has some balls!”As he spoke, he spat on the ground. He said indifferently, “Brat, lick my spit clean! Kneel on the ground when you talk to me!”“Or else, I’ll cut off all your limbs today!”Nick and his subordinates sneered.Nick glared at Harvey and added, “Brat, did you hear that? Hurry up and get on your knees!”“If you behave now, Brother Fly might not kill you!”“If you don’t, I’m afraid you won’t be able to even crawl out later!”Harvey watched as Nick continued acting like a clown, utterly indifferent and unmoved. Mandy quickly stepped in front of Harvey and blocked him, whispering, “Harvey, these people are from the streets. We can’t afford to provoke them.”She apologized to Brother Fly, saying, “Brother Fly, we’re new here. We still don’t know the rules.”“I’m not sure how much we need to pay, but I’ll settle the fee
Brother Fly’s mistress, Becca Day, giggled quietly.“Darling, this man’s acting so arrogant! Hedoesn’t even bat an eye at you.”“He doesn’t know what’s good for him!”Hearing these words, Brother Fly’s gaze turned ice-cold.He had been around Pedestrian Street for so many years. Even if the first-in-command of the police station in the area were to bump into him, they’d have to pay him respect.Who would’ve imagined this hothead who showed up out of nowhere would be this disrespectful?He even told Brother Fly to kneel inside a trash can? What a joke!“I’m warning you one more time. Kneel and lick my spit clean!” Brother Fly demanded, laughing coldly. The whole place fell into dead silence. Everyone around dared not utter a single word. They didn’t even have the courage to breathe.All of them could sense that Brother Fly was truly livid.In Pedestrian Street, enraging Brother Fly would do no one any good.Only Harvey remained as still as a rock, his face also as cold as
“Mr. York, are you insane? Do you know who Brother Fly’s boss is? Do you even have the guts to accept his apology even if he did come here?”“That man is a true master in this line of work! With just a snap of his fingers, he could do whatever he wants! Yet you want a man like that to bow down to you?”“What are you thinking? You’re just a live-in son-in-law setting up a street stall! Are you even worthy?”Nick Lachey and the rest jabbed their fingers at Harvey and rebuked him. Naturally, they had never encountered a person who was this oblivious about the good and bad.Mandy was a bundle of nerves.‘Demanding the boss to show up and apologize to me?’‘What’s Harvey thinking?’‘Isn’t he just trying to get us killed?’Mandy panicked and pulled out her phone. Trembling, she sent Keith and Finn Yates a text.Under these circumstances, although Mandy really didn’t want to resort to begging, she was afraid that Harvey would be beaten to death by Brother Fly and his lackeys if she d
Watching Harvey’s arrogance, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on Brother Fly’s face.“You’re finished, kid!”“When my boss shows up, you’ll understand the true meaning of death!”“It’s not just you! I won’t let your wife off the hook either!”Harvey didn’t reply. He casually picked up a steel pipe and immediately swung it at Brother Fly’s face.“Argh!”Brother Fly let out an unintelligible wail as a mouthful of teeth sprayed out.He glared at Harvey, his eyes flashing with anger. He wanted to threaten Harvey, but dared not open his mouth for fear of Harvey hitting him again.To the watching crowd, Harvey was finished.This whole mess couldn’t be fixed by simply crippling him anymore. Mandy was so frightened, she was on the verge of tears. She never imagined that her husband would be this rash!Even if the Yateses did show up to help, settling this problem won’t be easy. Mandy grabbed Harvey’s hand and pleaded, “Darling, let’s leave quickly. Let’s get out of Buckwood and re
A few minutes later, van after van stopped at the roadside of Pedestrian Street. Crowds of men then rushed out. Seeing this, Brother Fly brightened.Even Nick Lachey and his lackeys were exhilarated.Soon, a large group of men were present.They were all dressed in black suits, tall and strong. It was obvious that they were fighters at first glance.The man leading them was a middle-aged man wearing a suit, he looked extraordinary at first sight.He was none other than Buckwood’s well-renowned head, Master Caesar.Master Caesar and his man moved to the front of the crowd and fell into shock. It was especially evident when they spotted Brother Fly kneeling in front of Harvey.“Boss, save me! This man actually hit me! He’s not even paying you any respect!” Seeing his savior, Brother Fly couldn’t help but speak. But then he saw Master Caesar immediately rushing toward Harvey, saying, “Are you alright?”His men were all bowing with their hands folded. They dared not spare a sin
Linus almost wanted to slap the secretary out of fury. "I'm warning you! This is something we have to deal with ourselves. If we can, Emery will ally with us and help us deal with the small problems that we might encounter. But if we can't… Let me tell you what'll happen. Emery will kick us when we're down and will never offer us a helping hand!"Linus's expression became even darker after he said that. Those who were able to become one of the highest ranking members of the family, it didn't matter how arrogant they were or how materialistic they were, their basic judgment wouldn't stray too far away from being accurate. He was already able to guess Emery's personality. It was said that there was no love within a royal family. It was the same for wealthy families.The beautiful secretary nodded and whispered, "But Mr. Linus, our biggest problem is we're running out of resources. Without powerful locals from the country to help us right now, we're nothing when we're facing Yvonne
Wolsing Grand Hospital. Midnight.Linus was covered in bandages, looking in extremely bad shape. While he had plenty of bodyguards, the Islanders refused to stop no matter what. After the clash, they had beaten him up thoroughly. While there was no permanent injury, he was still covered in bruises.He used his right hand to pick up a cigar as he cursed, "Bastard! All these traitorous Islanders… They took my money… Not only did they do nothing, but they even attacked me! I will kill them after this!"He gritted his teeth. "And that witch Yvonne! She better not think this is over! One day, I'll find a way to kill all of you! Not only you, I will kill your whole family and that man of yours too!"At this time, Linus was no different from a woman scorned. All that was left for him to do was to take out his little book of grudges and start recording. As for how Yvonne managed to retaliate… Though Linus was furious with her, he was also terrified of her.The plot he had so meticulousl
Everything was over. Whether it was the Xaviers, the Islanders, or someone else, they couldn't do anything about this case anymore. With this video, no one could undo anything.On the second floor, Journi looked at what happened with shock. Only after a long time did she whisper, "All we needed to spend is 5,000?""I guess," Harvey said with a shrug. "But I needed to prepare some money beforehand. My subordinates found out that Linus bribed Nomura and the Islanders 100 thousand per head. Nomura and his ilk are greedy, so they agreed to it. I told my subordinates to leak the news that after the negotiation, Linus could gain a lot more benefits."The Islanders naturally wouldn't accept the fact that they'll only be able to gain a little profit, so our men approached them again and pretended to be part of Linus' men. They agreed to hike the price. I even transferred the money to them, so the Islanders had to give today's performance their all. If they had to go as far as to commit suic
"All of us were ready to commit suicide for the 50 million A dollars!""We even sold out our country, meaning we could never return to the Island Nations!""You either give us all the money back, or we'll never stop hounding you for it!" All the Islanders were extremely furious.In truth, the Islanders who were paragons of unity and love were ordinary people in the end and could be swayed by profit. Without the money, they wouldn't have given such a performance.Linus couldn't help but shudder when he saw all the Islanders looking at him with murderous intent, as if a pack of wolves were glaring at him, with the intent to kill. "Stop making such wild accusations!" he cried. "While I really did pay to tell you to work, all I did was give you 10,000 dollars! And that's not A dollars, but H dollars. As for paying all of you 50 million dollars per person… Do you think I'm stupid? Do you think I'm willing to pay so much just so you'll frame Yvonne? Why don't you consider if you're w
The phones of all the Islanders who were willing to commit suicide started to vibrate. All the Islanders who were in their righteous fury took out their phones. When they saw the content on the screen, they roared—they were so angry that they almost went mad.They instantly got up from the ground, their eyes bloodshot. All of them glared at Linus, as if wanting to tear him apart. The reporters and spectators were a little shocked, and instinctively took a few steps back. It was obvious that they felt a murderous intent.Before anyone could react, Nomura waved his hand. All the Islanders surrounded Linus and his men. Linus frowned slightly. "What do you all want?""Fools!" Nomura immediately aimed his longsword at Linus. "Don't you people from Country A call yourself a civilized world? That obeying the contract is important to you? Why did you suddenly break the contract when we've done everything you asked us to do?"The other Islanders all looked at Linus with a murderous expres
Linus wore a victor's smile. The reason he looked for Tojo Nomura earlier was to accuse Yvonne and the Xavier family on the spot, to make sure they would be accused of being traitors.He didn't expect a little money to be enough to make them act. Good, good. All he could say was that no matter how powerful or barbaric the Islanders were, they were nothing before the great people of country A. Not to mention, he had already given them their rewards. Even if he didn't, the Islanders still had to act as he ordered.Yvonne frowned. Of course, she knew that nothing the Islanders said was true—merely defamation. The problem was that she couldn't understand why someone like Nomura, who was a disciple of Shinto Way, had to make up such lies.The moment that thought crossed her mind, Yvonne looked coldly at Linus and said, "Just how much did you give them to the point they're willing to sell their country?""Tsk! You think that's enough to scare me?" Linus smiled wryly. "Everybody knows h
Very quickly, many Islanders ran to the stage. All of them were wearing the Islanders' traditional summer garb. The way they stood and the way they lifted their beard made them easily identifiable as Islanders.According to how unified Islanders were, everything they said would most likely be true.When Linus saw what was happening, sat down and folded his legs. His sexy secretary helped him light up a cigar. He took a deep breath, then looked at the unfolding scene with interest.Very quickly, the Islander leading the men took a step forward and said angrily, "Everyone! I'm Shinto Way's disciple, Tojo Nomura. I'm also the leader of the disciples still in Country H. "A few days ago, the Xaviers of Wolsing requested a marriage with our Young Master, Shingen. They have also signed a lot of contracts with us. Some of them include how Shinto Way will transfer the shares of our assets in Country H to them, while they will have to transfer ownership of their business on the Island Natio
When Yvonne saw Linus pulling out things they shouldn't and even giving them to the reporters, she instantly realized that he cared little about the consequences anymore.What he did was to ensure the Xaviers were blamed for everything. Even if he gained nothing from it, he still wanted to do it just so the Xaviers would have a hard time in Country H. He even wanted to use this to make both Country H and the Island Nation to force them to publicly deal with Shingen's death.Harvey, who caused all of this, would be in a lot of trouble. Yvonne looked at Linus coldly. "Linus, you know that taking things out of context and making up stories won't be beneficial to you. Where's your conscience?""Conscience? What's that?" Linus said with an exaggerated expression. "I'm not the one who killed Shingen. It's you Xaviers of Wolsing and the prospective son-in-law you wanted. Are you afraid others will find out? I'm just someone who knew the truth with a righteous heart!"I can't bear to see
The faces of Yvonne and the others from the Xaviers all shifted a little. It was obvious they didn't expect an Islander to appear. Meanwhile, Harvey simply looked at all of this coldly.Journi, who was a little bit surprised, turned to Harvey subconsciously. "What's going on?""We're simply giving the full package. The most difficult part of all of this was to explain why the Islanders would give up. Rather than waiting for others to expose the truth, why don't we give everyone the truth?" Harvey said calmly."What do you mean?" Journi said with a frown. "Simple. While these people are Islanders, they'll work for money. In this situation, the words of an Islander are more effective than the words of a hundred people from Country H…"Journi was curious about what Harvey wanted to do, but then some of the reporters realized what was happening. "Are these allegations from the Islanders true? Did you really assassinate Mr. Shingen Tokugawa, who wanted to improve the relationship
