The head of security was boiling with anger after hearing those words.“You ask us to do something for you with this attitude and then threaten to throw us in jail? Do it then! I dare you!“Where do you think this place is?!“This is Sky Corporation!”A dozen security guards immediately came forward and kicked the entire Yates family out of the building.Poor Yates family, they were a first-rate family, after all. They had never experienced something like this their whole lives.Grandma Yates was shivering with anger. Most of the Yates family’s authority belonged to Keith Yates. He was also the one who befriended those big shots everywhere.But right when Keith was gone, the family turned out like this.Grandma Yates could not even find a way to contact a single higher up from Sky Corporation.A Rolls Royce was parked at the entrance of Sky Corporation at this moment. Ray Hart could be seen walking out of the car.The moment Grandma Yates saw Ray out of his car, she thought s
Harvey York was in sight.All of the Yates family that was flaunting their authority at the reception hall were showing gleeful expressions.‘So what if Harvey’s arrogant?’‘In front of the Yates family, he’s just a little brother!’‘Of course, he had to show up obediently!’The Yates had shown their faces as if they had won.In their eyes, their arrogant actions in Sky Corporation before were to smoke out Harvey and Mandy.As expected, Harvey had shown up.This was the Yates family’s power!Harvey walked toward the Yates family and smiled.“The Yates family sure is incredible. Did all of you even think about the place you’re in?“You dare to cause a commotion in the Sky Corporation building? All of you must be looking to die!”“We’d only do this because of you and Mandy Zimmer anyway!” Grandma Yates chuckled coldly.“Where is Mandy anyway? Why isn’t she here to see me?”“Yeah! Mandy left such a big mess for the family. It would be logical for her to come back and fix i
Harvey York’s tone was as cold as ice. This was the last chance that he gave the Yates family.But after they froze over since the beginning, they all burst out laughing soon after.“Hahahaha…”“Grandmother, this man thinks that he can just step on us like that just because we got into some trouble!”“I think he doesn’t know how to assess the situation clearly!”“I’ve already gathered all the information about him. He’s just a driver for Prince York himself. Does a mere driver want to destroy the entire Yates family? Stop daydreaming!”“He can’t fix his old habit of boasting up a storm after all!”“You’re threatening the Yates family? Did you really think that we have nobody else supporting us?”All of the Yates family’s expressions were as cold as ice.No matter how in decline the family was, it was still not a family that a mere live-in son-in-law could just step on.Not to mention that the Chief Instructor was going to visit them after three days.Once the Yates family’s
The men from the Yates family all leaked out intense expressions after hearing Phoebe Yates’ words.They should be handling people that betrayed the Yates family like this.“Grandmother, what should we be doing next?!” Someone asked while frowning.The Yates family was faced with a dire problem. If they could not get Mandy to be their scapegoat, they might not have an easy time solving the problem.Grandma Yates gave a deep thought about the situation, then slowly replied, “As of right now, we can only make a desperate attempt!“Stop caring about Silver Nimbus Enterprise for now. Instead, use your sources to spread the word that the Chief Instructor is about to visit us after three days!“In addition, spread rumors saying that the Chief Instructor might be interested in Phoebe. But remember, don’t let anybody catch on to the source!“I don’t believe that ignorant fools will cause trouble for us after knowing the Chief Instructor might be our future son-in-law!”After hearing Gr
Harvey York gave a thought about the situation and replied, “It’s fine. I’ll head to the auction myself. I haven’t been in one for quite a while.”There were too many things happening. He had rarely taken Mandy Zimmer out to relax recently.This was an excellent opportunity.Even though the Yates family might not continue to cause Harvey trouble after being threatened, it was better if he still took caution.Leaving would be the same as staying away from trouble, for the time being, at least buying time for Mandy to cool down for the next two days.On the following day, early in the morning, Harvey had woken up Mandy.“Darling, let’s pack up and head out if you have nothing planned for today.”Mandy blinked with her big shining eyes and asked while perplexed, “Why? Aren’t we supposed to continue looking for investors at Sky Corporation today?”Harvey chuckled.“Not today. We’re going on a trip!”Mandy shook her head.“If we go on a trip at this crucial moment, we might miss
Harvey York thought about it and asked, “What do you think of Regency Enterprise?”Mandy Zimmer thought Harvey was giving her a test. She laughed it off and replied, “I think it’s great! Even though we have some contradictions with the company, there’s no denying that the company is excellent!“The real estate market of Buckwood aside, they’re involved with quite a few industries including the entertainment and fashion industry, among others…“I heard that there were quite a lot of internet celebrities that they groomed as well!“Every single one of those celebrities is competent at live commencing too!”Harvey thought about it again and reached his hand to rub Mandy’s forehead.“Since my wife looks up this much to Regency Enterprise, how about I win the auction for you?”Mandy chuckled after hearing his words.“Sure, I’ll wait for your good news.“But I think the base bidding price for Regency Enterprise would be at least worth a hundred million dollars. Do you even have this
In Luke’s opinion, Harvey was an obviously poor man who had no right to stand next to Mandy.Mandy, however, failed to notice Luke’s expression. She asked curiously, “Mr. Perry, are you working here now?”Luke smiled mildly. Feeling a little complacent, he replied, “Yes, I’ve just been promoted to the general manager of this resort. Here’s my card.”After he finished speaking, he handed Harvey and Mandy a gilded card each.Mandy took the card and stared at it a few times. She then said politely, “Mr. Perry, you’re doing quite well now. Back then, you’re the best among all the lecturers.”Luke got carried away at Mandy’s praise. However, at this point, he still spoke humbly. “To put it bluntly, people like us are merely upper-class employees. Our annual salary couldn’t even reach 1.5 million, and it can’t be compared to that of the major families.”“Oh, right. I apologize, Mandy.”“I forgot. I just saw the news a few days ago, saying that your company was handed to the Yates fami
Luke no longer cared about Harvey. He only had eyes on Mandy.He took a deep breath and said, “Mandy, I’ll transfer all my apartments under your name after you marry me!”“I know you like to run businesses. I’ll find a way to buy some equity for this resort, and then you’ll be one of its owners!”“Living in a mansion, having some equity, and enjoying life every day. You deserve all that!”Luke was determined.In his opinion, no woman could refuse such a temptation.Even if it was an excellent woman such as Mandy.At the same time, Luke was also grateful to the Yates family.Had they not snatched Mandy’s equity, he would never have had the chance to be with her. To him, this was fate!He was destined to be with Mandy!Just then, Harvey, who had been ignored this entire time, suddenly smiled and said, “Mr. Perry, is your resort so valuable?”“Is it that great to be its shareholder?”Luke grinned and replied, “Of course, Brother. This resort is owned by the Naiswells!”“The
"Right, there's something else," Dan said as he slapped his forehead. "It's almost time for my grandmother's 90th birthday. She's a good friend of our teacher. If you have the chance, please convince him not to stay in Wolsing all the time. He should head to Grand City once in a while. He might think things through after that."Sienna nodded and said, "Don't worry. I'll try talking to him. After all, staying in Grand City for a few days might improve his condition."After half an hour, Dan quietly left the temple of the Saint of Death and got back into the red car. Shortly, the car started and slowly left the national park.Once the car was back on Wolsing's freeway, the woman who had been playing with it called Lanny beamed and asked, "So, how did it go? Did that junior of yours change her impression of you?"Lanny crossed her legs, and the fragrance from her tickled Dan's nose. He wished he could immediately pounce on her and pull her pantyhose away."Things aren't that easy," D
"That's right, because he really impressed me. But the reason I'm impressed isn't because he has become the representative for the Martial Arts Alliance. It's simply because he's willing to fight for our country. Few people have such pure thoughts in this age," Sienna said after giving it a thought."That being said, few people know that I've been impressed. How did you find that out?"Dan smiled. "You must have forgotten something. While you're our teacher's last student, I'm also a favored student myself. Just because you called our teacher didn't mean we didn't remain in touch. I know you're impressed by him through our teacher as well. And I heard from our teacher that you want to find a chance to introduce him formally?" Hearing what Dan had said, Sienna nodded. She often mentioned Harvey to her teacher but did not expect her teacher to divulge it to Dan."The thought did cross my mind," Sienna said in honesty. "You should know that our teacher should have reached the level o
"As for Parkerville controlling the Martial Arts Alliance? I don't think you need to do that. Among all the Sacred Training Grounds, Parkerville is the one Sacred Training Ground that is linked to the broader society the most. The Country H government is aware of your actions and is on their guard."If you really manage to become the representative, not only will the top ten families suppress the Martial Arts Alliance, but even the five hidden families and the four pillars will do that. That way, it will simply make our factions lose our power due to infighting. It's a demerit for all of us," Sienna said with a hint of sternness."If I were you, I would spend some time in Wolsing, have dinner with your representative, warn him a little, talk about cooperation, and then leave. This is the best choice for us, for you, and for the entire country."When Dan heard what Sienna had to say, he smiled. "Thank you for your thoughts. However, as a man, my life should be one of glory and passio
When Dan heard Sienna's honest words, there was a hint of sneer within him. However, he hid those emotions and simply said, "I know little about your brother, Sienna. He has given me a few calls and says that if our cooperation is successful this time, he will give me the thing I want the most.""I didn't really believe him, but I have to come and speak to him a little, seeing that he's your brother after all. That's why when it comes to this so-called cooperation, it’ll be great if it works. But if it's getting dangerous, I'll heed your warning and be extra careful. Since… Your brother might be the leader of your family. I can't simply cross him."Dan focused his eyes as he looked at Sienna, as if wanting to see any changes in her eyes when he said that. However, Sienna's eyes were emotionless, as if the word "leader" could not make her budge at all.She gave him a beaming smile and said, "I'll be able to rest easy if you can handle this appropriately. However, besides my brother,
It was obvious Sienna knew what she was talking about. While it was just a few dates, from a certain angle, these dates that Dan gave her could be deemed priceless.Dan laughed. "Those are just rumors, and you believed them? If it's as wondrous as you said, Parkerville wouldn't have declined through the years. However, the tree is quite old, and the quality of its dates is much better than the ones that go through modern industrialization. I know you like these, so I had them transported here."You wouldn't say no to me, right? If you do that, that will damage my reputation later."Once Dan had said that, Sienna had no choice but to sigh in resignation. She sighed, extended her hand, took out a date, and tasted it. It was quite fragrant, and its sweetness bloomed when she bit into it. It was something beyond describable.It was completely organic. Just its purity alone was enough, no matter if it was as good as the rumors made it. After finishing the date, she was still enjoying th
Dan gave Lanny an apologetic smile and walked into the temple. Very quickly, he arrived in front of the temple. When he saw the name of the deity the temple was dedicated to, there was only derision on his face.According to the legends, the Saint of Death once said she would never know peace until all the souls had been freed from Hell. The Saint represented the wish to guide everyone's souls. But to someone like Dan, everyone else meant nothing. Only his success mattered.With a scornful smirk, Dan gave the priest a badge guarding the entrance before walking into the temple's corridor. He quickly reached the end of the temple, which had a ridge on which an ancient pavilion had been built.After being renovated, the pavilion no longer looked as dilapidated. However, this was not a place any ordinary person could go. In the pavilion was a chair, and a woman was sitting on it. She was reading a religious book and was immensely engrossed in it.A faint light fell on her making her lo
"Grand City?" Harvey caught a crucial keyword from Yvonne's explanation. "Let's stop everything else. Tell me more about Grand City. Why haven't I heard anything about a city like this in this world?"Then Yvonne replied sternly, "Normally speaking, as the representative of Country H's Martial Arts Alliance, you must have known about Grand City. It is not a city that belongs to our world. It was said to belong only to martial artists. "It was said that not only was the city very prosperous and a place where martial arts flourished, but it was also said that there was a portal that led to another world in that city. It was also said that only one could comprehend the pinnacle of martial arts, uniting Man and Nature…"Harvey slightly frowned. "Uniting Man and Nature? That way, doesn't that make Grand City the holy land of all Martial Artists? Aren't they going to fight tooth and nail with everyone so that they could stay in a place like this?"Yvonne nodded. "That's right. Those who
"Maybe Dan really wanted to become the leader, or he needed many people and power. He never inherited the chivalry and benevolence of the previous generation. He did everything for profit," Ray explained. "Perhaps it's because Parkerville is the Sacred Training Ground with the deepest roots in the outside world. That's why the way Dan did things tyrannically affected the youths who went to martial arts schools and those who practiced their martial arts."According to George's estimation, the number of youths from their school who committed violent crimes across the globe had increased tenfold. Many of them had even joined the criminal underworld of their own volition. "And the worst part is, because of their relations with the Sacred Training Grounds, even Dragon Gate had no choice but to show some leniency. That's why it's very difficult to deal with Sacred Training Grounwithave such powerful influence in the outside world…""Difficult?" Harvey asked curiously. "How difficult?""
"I quietly applied to Country A's top-ranking universities to become an exchange student. Last night, I received a call from Irving Sixth Academy saying that there would be an interview for me. Thinking that it was a rare chance, I came. I didn't expect that the so-called interviewer was Linus."I knew something was amiss, so I made an excuse and left. I didn't expect to fall into their trap the moment I stepped in. Luckily you're here, otherwise… Otherwise…" Sia was filled with terror after that. She remembered how Linus and Clarion looked at her. She knew how it would end if she fell into their hands."I see," Harvey nodded. It looks like Linus didn't give up and instead set his eyes on the Xavier family's family members." Harvey narrowed his eyes when he said that.While he was unsure about Linus's entire plan, he had some ideas. Linus most likely formulated this trap to make Parkerville and the Xaviers of Wolsing mortal enemies."You can't tell my cousin about this, Harvey…" Si
