Soon, the people from the Yates family went out together and finally managed to find out what happened.“It turns out that Mandy Zimmer has blindly invested a lot of money to speed up the progress of the Silver Nimbus Mountain Resort project!”“Now that there is no money in the company account. Those executives resigned because they didn’t get their salaries this month!”“The construction team didn’t get the monthly payment. So naturally, they stopped working too!”“Also, rumors outside are spreading that Silver Nimbus Enterprise is in debt. So, those who bought the villas come and forcefully request to check-out!”“As for the bet-on agreement, it truly exists. Mandy signed it with Sky Corporation in the name of the company. It is said that this is a condition for her to become the CEO!”“In short, it’s all because of Mandy!”“This little b*tch actually threw a low ball to the Yates family!”“We even thought that we got a bargain!”After clarifying the things, all the Yates fa
Finally, the small and medium shareholders agreed to give the Yates family a few days to raise funds after the family had run their mouths dry.As a result, the Yates family needed to pay a hefty amount of liquidated damage since they were only given a few days' time. The total amount that they needed to pay was seven million and eight hundred thousand dollars.Although the Yates family was numb in the head at that moment, they agreed to the price to solve the crisis in front of their eyes.When the small and medium shareholders had left, the Yates family was dead silent.Everyone had cold sweat dripping down their faces. Their expressions were utterly horrible.Right when they all thought that all of it was over, a dozen pickup trucks suddenly stopped outside.Soon after, a bunch of roguishly looking gangsters immediately rushed inside.They were the suppliers of the building material all along.The gangsters only came because there was a payment overdue for a few days already
“Apologize! And then repay the debt!” Leyton Luv said while gritting his teeth.How would Finn Yates even be willing?He was the third-in-command of the Buckwood Police Station, after all. It would be too embarrassing for him to bow and apologize to those lowly suppliers.At this moment, Grandma Yates walked forward with an ugly scowl on her face.“Finn, there’ll be big trouble if you won’t solve the small ones. Go and apologize right now!“Ben, take out everything from our accounts and pay off the debts immediately!”Finn and Ben Yates were not willing at all.But Grandma Yates’ expression at that moment was as cold as ice. They had no choice but to do it.Finally, Finn gritted on his teeth and bowed to apologize to the suppliers.Ben, on the other hand, went and took out thousands of dollars from the Yates family’s bank account. They even had to mortgage a few of their cars to acquire a million and five hundred thousand dollars to pay off the supplies.All the suppliers had
“What? Every one of you seemed more energetic than the last when you got the money and benefits from the family!“Now that the Yates family is in a crisis, all of you just turn into mutes?”Grandma Yates furiously slammed her cane on the ground while trembling with anger.Everyone’s heads were hanging even lower. None of them could open their mouths and answer her.Because they never expected this affair to happen!“Now speak! What do we do about this? How do we clean up this mess?” Grandma Yates continued to exclaim furiously.“Grandmother, I think that we’ve been deceived by that bastard, Mandy Zimmer!”“Just think about it. We were the ones to point out that Mandy needed to give us all of her shares if she wanted Harvey York to stay alive!”“But the shares are worth three hundred million dollars! What kind of man is worth that money?”“And she just gave it to us like that!”“I think that she did it intentionally. She knew full well that Silver Nimbus Enterprise is a huge m
The Yates family was devising a strategy to get Mandy Zimmer back and fix the mess.Mandy was researching which industry to sink her hands into and reestablish another company.Harvey York had been encouraging her after all, telling her that Buckwood’s market would be massive and that there would be many opportunities.Besides, Mandy had always been a stubborn woman. She would always get back up from where she fell.With Harvey’s support, it reinforced her thought to start another business.She was at the Gardens Residence researching for plans, preparing to look for an angel investor.At that moment, Grandma Yates actually called her.“Mandy, you little bastard!“The Yates family has never done anything wrong to you, have we?!“How dare you plot against the family from the beginning?!“You deserve to die!“I hate it! When Lilian that bastard had you, I should’ve just made her abort you!“If that were the case, the family won’t end up like this!”Grandma Yates was scolding
Grandma Yates uttered her words full of virtue at that moment.She was playing both God and the Devil!Naturally, she knew of Mandy Zimmer’s personality.And that was her soft heart and her strong sense of family.The Yates family could leave everything behind for money and other gains.But Mandy might not do so.The point was already apparent when she could not bear to divorce Harvey York.If it were Phoebe Yates, a husband like this would be kicked to the ground by her.“Oh, Mandy. This is the last chance I’m able to give you. We can talk things out if you’re willing to come back!“If you don’t think of yourself, at least, think of your mother!“I’m her mother!”Grandma Yates was extremely gracious as if she were another person.The true meaning of reward after punishment.The words did slightly move Mandy’s heart.But in reality, she did not care much for Silver Nimbus Enterprise right now.But she hoped to keep the ties with the Yates family.It was because she over
Mandy Zimmer gritted her teeth lightly and sighed after a moment, not uttering a single word.She was only nice, not stupid. How could she not understand what the Yates family meant?But she could not pass the nagging feeling in her heart.Now that Harvey York brought the matter out into the open, the burden in her heart had been lifted.“Darling, thank you. I understand that they only treat me like a tool. I won’t listen to them again.“The Yates family can just die on their own.”Even though Mandy said that, her heart still slightly ached for the family.But Harvey was prepared not to give the Yates family another chance.He sent Xynthia Zimmer to survey for universities as an excuse to send Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates out of Buckwood to wander around Mordu and Wolsing for the time being.Under those circumstances, the Yates family had no way of contacting Simon and Lilian.***At the Yates family household.Everyone was desperately trying to call Mandy’s family but to
The fighter chuckled coldly.“Government officials? How prestigious! How menacing!“Did you think I don’t know that Keith Yates provoked the Chief Instructor himself and is in a coma at the military hospital?!“Does the Yates family have anyone else? Is everyone just relying on Finn right now?”Finn Yates was shivering with anger after hearing those words.Those people were not respectful at all toward the third-in-command of Buckwood Police Station.But this was normal.The suppliers had already spread the word about the Yates family early in the morning.Now that everyone knew that the Yates family were only a bunch of paper tigers, they would naturally take advantage of the situation if they wanted their money. If not, they might miss their window of opportunity.At this moment, Phoebe Yates walked forward with a disdainful expression and said, “You people, did you not know that the Chief Instructor will come over to our house after a few days?“Are you all not afraid of d
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
"You're good… Very good!" There was shock in Sverker's eyes. "I don't want to admit it, but I have to. Country H really is a good place to give birth to someone like you. In twenty years…no, maybe in ten years, you'd be able to comprehend how to reach Unity between Nature and Man. In another fifty years, maybe you can even take that final step and ascend into the void!"Unfortunately, you met me. I will end your legend here. If it isn't because we each serve our own masters, I want to let you live and see just how far you can reach."Sverker's figure disappeared and then reappeared where he was standing earlier.One of the women became extremely excited when she saw this. She seemed to be trained in martial arts a little. "Here it is! Mr. Sverker is serious now! He's really making his move!"All the other women were shocked. When they exchanged glances, all they could see was the surprise in each other's eyes.Sverker used the legendary Sonic Blade already, but even that was
"Don't tell me you'll become more confident with these women cheering for you from the side," Harvey said, completely unaffected by the women's words. Instead, he even teased Sverker for it.Sverker used these women to strike at his morale, so Harvey wouldn't pull his punches. While the two of them hadn't crossed swords, their fight had begun from the moment they met."You have quite a sharp tongue!" Sverker said with a snort. He waved his hands, signaling the women to stop. After that, his right hand slowly reached for the hilt of his sword sheathed by his waist. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey. "You're quite arrogant! I really hope that you can still be as arrogant once I cleave you in half!"Harvey shrugged. "I think you're the one being arrogant here. Normally speaking, you should be the one begging for your life. Your so-called chivalry is to bend your knee to your betters, isn't it?""Fool!" Sverker cried; Harvey's words hit a nerve, and his right hand sudde
"Sverker?" Harvey said calmly. "If I remember correctly, this is the title of a mass murderer from the Island Nation that died in our hands. For you to give yourself the same name… Do you think you'll die just like that mass murderer in my hands?"Sverker was slightly stunned when he heard what Harvey had to say. Then, he laughed. "Die in your hands? You? Aren't you overestimating yourself a little too much? Do you think you're invincible after defeating all the prodigies of Country I and the Island Nation's Sword Saints?"I admit you're very impressive to have obtained the power of a True Warrior at your age, but that doesn't allow you to look down on everything! You're still too young and you don't have enough experience. You don't know just how wide the world is. There are plenty of people in this world who are more powerful than you!"I became a King of Arms when I was twelve, and a True Warrior at the age of eighteen! Since then, I've been trying to comprehend the path to r
"Not to mention, these are weapons that Grand City's top brass directly controls. If it isn't because I've taken control over Earth Hall recently, I wouldn't have been able to take these out," Clarion said with a sigh.Harvey nodded. "Looks like letting you control Earth Hall is one of my correct decisions after coming to Grand City."Then, Harvey narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. "Clarion. Take your men and attack from the outer ring. Do your best to reach the destination and save our people."Clarion blinked. "And you?"Harvey said, "Always go for the head. A truly powerful elite must be keeping an eye on everything. If we don't eliminate him, our rescue will be destined to fail."Harvey slammed his foot on the ground before jumping into the air, his figure quickly disappearing into the horizon. He noticed that there were plenty of elites converging. This was Sky Plane's territory. No matter how many he killed, his enemies would most likely swarm him.If that was the case,
While Clarion and Harvey were talking, the Origin Sword Style elites were already slowly coming closer.600 feet. 300 feet. 150 feet!As they drew closer, everyone could see their murderous expression. Their firearms already had their safety off. One could also see there were no longer any gaps in their encirclement.With how things were going, the only two options for Harvey and his men were to either get killed or to simply surrender.As they drew closer, not only was Clarion sweating, but all his bodyguards also had cold sweat on their foreheads.Only Harvey wasn't doing anything. He simply narrowed his eyes as if he was quietly calculating something. When there were only 60 feet left, he suddenly said, "You have two seconds."Harvey suddenly slammed his foot on the ground.Boom!A powerful shockwave extended outward, and all the Origin Sword Style elites surrounding them were subconsciously stunned. The shield they were holding momentarily left the ground."Warsong! Fire
At Clarion's order, all his bodyguards immediately dragged out several black suitcases. Within were black holes with blue bullets. It was obvious these bullets were created to be used on Martial Arts elites. The damage they could deal was beyond anyone's imagination.The bodyguards stood in front of Harvey and Clarion with the suitcases, ready to fight their enemies to the bitter end.When the Origin Sword Style elites saw how Harvey and the others reacted, they took out a shield and placed it in front of them. It was obvious they were prepared.Or perhaps, it was easier to say that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew what they had prepared.Clarion's expression darkened. "How did these fools manage to guess we're here with the Warsongs?"Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Is there a possibility that they didn't make a guess, but instead already received news about how many people we brought and what kind of weapons, so they could make preparations for us?"Clarion was stunned. "W
