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
A trace of strangeness flashed through Luke’s eyes after both Harvey and Mandy’s figures disappeared. “Hurry and check which room they’re staying in, then get me the access card!”“Manager Perry, isn’t that against the rules?” A waiter whispered.Slap!Luke slapped the waiter and hissed in a low voice, “Rules? What rules? In this place, I am the rules!”That waiter covered his face and no longer dared to speak. He quickly went to get the access card and sent it over.Luke held onto the access card with a smug face.From the moment he first laid his eyes on Mandy back then, he wanted her. He yearned to taste every bit of her, just like a real man!Unfortunately, someone reported him for sexual harassment of another female student.In the end, he had to spend a lot of money to settle the problem, and was forced to resign.Otherwise, he would’ve slept with Mandy a long time ago.Now, this sweet and delectable woman had come to him once more. Luke felt that this was a gift from
Harvey looked at this scene indifferently.Apparently, this man had ill intentions.After Harvey took a bite of the vegetables and swallowed it, he instantly understood.The dishes contained sedatives.Fortunately, the sedatives should be ones easily found in the market. It wouldn’t cause any harm to the body, and was only a mild sleeping aid.Knowing that Mandy hadn’t rested well recently, Harvey had no plans of exposing this fact. Thus, the two of them ate as usual.As for these sedatives, they had no effect on Harvey at all.What poison hadn’t he encountered on the battlefield?Although his current body wasn’t immune to all poisons, it wasn’t that far off.Luke watched them from afar, shivering with excitement.Tonight, he could finally have some fun with Mandy.He heard that this live-in son-in-law had never slept with Mandy despite being her husband for three years. It could be said that Luke was doing this for their good and wanted to help them!When Harvey and Mandy
There was a reason why Luke hadn’t married for so many years.He had a fundamental disability.It was why he had always used the sedative method to get beautiful women. Only then he wouldn’t be rejected by others.However, at this moment…His biggest secret was exposed to everyone.At this moment, Luke felt that he was on the brink of collapse.“Who is it?!”“Who knocked me out?!”“Who hung me here?!”“I’ll kill you!”Being able to become the general manager of Enchantment Resort, Luke was certainly not a fool.After he sobered up, he immediately understood what was going on.Luke called the security guards nearby to put him down. He then asked for a coat to cover his lower body and then left as if he was flying.When he ran to the entrance of the restaurant, a voice suddenly came from nearby.“Hello, Mr. Perry. Why did you wrap your lower body with a security coat? Is that a popular fashion trend this year?” Mandy looked puzzled, unable to comprehend what Luke was doing.
Still shaking, Luke hurriedly deleted the surveillance videos. He couldn’t let them exist! They would be his dark past. Several workers, who were in charge of monitoring, didn’t suspect anything. They smiled at Luke, saying, “Manager Perry, did you succeed last night? You’re deleting the videos again. Remember to let us brothers have some fun with those beautiful ladies next time!”Slap!“Rubbish!”Luke slapped the worker who had spoken.He was still shaking from head to toe. When he recalled the scene in the morning, he would immediately get chills all over his body and the sudden urge to commit suicide.He took a deep breath and calmed down.He couldn’t let this slide. He must retaliate against Harvey!Furthermore, this must be done as soon as possible. Once Harvey checked out of the resort, Luke wouldn’t have another chance. After deliberating for some time, Luke waved his hand and brought a few security guards to the restaurant outside.“Sir, please come with us!” Luk
Zeno smiled. “He’s right under our noses.”As he spoke, he approached Harvey and bowed in a ninety degree angle. “Mr. York. It’s been a long time since we last met each other in Niumhi!”“The chief has instructed yesterday that I must personally hand over the contract to you.”“This resort will be your property as long as you sign the contract.”Crack!Zeno spoke lightly, but in Luke’s ears, Zeno’s words were equivalent to thunder striking on a sunny day.At the same time, Luke felt he was about to have a meltdown. It’s him!It’s truly him!That man actually asked the Naiswells to give him this resort last night!It was just a phone call! Yet the influential Zeno of the Naiswells rushed over to give him the contract this morning.This, this, this, this...!Wasn’t this too dramatic?Even TV series weren’t filmed this way!Wasn’t he a kept man? How could a loser like him gain such honor?Mandy was also shocked.Although she was aware that Harvey knew Shane Naiswell, and
Zeno immediately understood why Luke was aiming at Harvey.Right now, Luke was bathing in a pool of his sweat. Fortunately, Mandy turned out fine. Otherwise, the entire Naiswells would go down with Luke just for this matter alone.Thud!Luke instantly kneeled on the ground. He knew he was doomed.He grovelled and howled, “I was wrong! I was wrong! Mr. York, Mandy, please let me go! I won’t do that again!”Mandy stared at Luke as though she was looking at trash.To women, such people were rubbish.Harvey also looked indifferent, not saying anything.However, his silence didn’t mean that he would let the matter end this way.Zeno added coldly, “Come and break off his limbs. Then take him to the police and let him make things clear by himself!”Later, Luke was dragged away by several security guards.What awaited him was the legal sanctions. At most, he would spend the rest of his life in prison.Things soon came to an end.Enchantment Resort was also transferred to Mandy’s
"Of course, I know you don't want to be a woman like them," the man with the slicked-back hair said as he played with a lighter in his left hand, with a confident expression. "That's why, after giving it some thought, I'm willing to give you another way out. It's the same condition as before. If you're willing to come with me, not only will I give you your dignity and endless wealth, I can make you enjoy the joys of being a woman. See? Even your mother sold you. There's no harm for you to come with me!"The man, who was called Royce Yates, revealed a malicious smile. Although a man like him had toyed with plenty of women, he never really had the chance to be with a beauty who shared a deep connection with him.It did not make him feel disgusted at all. The blood relation they shared made him feel excited. To someone like him, the more taboo something was, the more excited they would be.The bodyguards standing behind Royce revealed a relishing smile when they heard it. The only thin
Ten minutes later, Harvey and Tyson left the estate's gate. After that, Tyson stepped on the gas and they quickly headed to a hotel in the countryside of Wolsing.Harvey even made a few calls during the journey. George quickly sent in new information he had gathered."Sir, people from Country A hold the shares of the Geraldton Hotel in the countryside. This hotel benefits from some kind of extraterritoriality. Those who came to this place were either the wealthy or the powerful. You might have some recollection about the person who has the majority of shares in this hotel. It was the Yates of Country A."After what happened in South City earlier, they stayed silent for a while before extending their influence in our country again. The Geraldton Hotel is their family's stronghold in our country. Your ex-sister-in-law, Xynthia, is related to the Yates. This time, the Yates used their relationship with your ex-mother-in-law Lilian to invite Xynthia to their talent show in this region.
There was a moment of deep thought on Geoffrey's face. After a moment, he asked Neve, "Neve, tell me about a few verses regarding your training technique that involves mental strength. I'll give it a look."Neve hesitated momentarily, leaned closer to Geoffrey's ear, and whispered a few sentences. Geoffrey's expression changed as he listened to those words. He closed his eyes and simulated it carefully in his mind.After a long while, Geoffrey opened his eyes and coldly said, "From today onward, stop practicing Servitas' mental cultivation technique. You have to give up all of it. Also, seal the remaining Six-Paths Fragrance and send them to Dragon Cell for analysis. See if there's anything inside that is hallucinogenic…"Then, Geoffrey remembered something else. "Did your teacher personally teach you all the mental cultivation techniques?" A hint of tension flashed through Geoffrey's eyes when he asked the question. If Servitas really did intentionally teach Neve a technique with s
After hearing what Harvey had to say, everyone exchanged glances. Lune and Sol were very experienced, and they quickly zoomed into the video recording and started to check the details. After carefully scanning it, everyone noticed Neve's action was extremely mechanical, and her eyes were completely blank. Even her actions activating the Rainstorm Needles were extremely puppetlike.When Neve saw this, she was shocked. "How can I fall under someone else's control like this? I'm trained in Servitas' school of martial arts, and it demands extremely high mental mastery. How can I fall into someone's control so easily? Not to mention that one doesn't have to use the Six-Paths Fragrance to control me, right? But most importantly… I've never fallen for someone's mind control until Harvey appeared… Could it be that it's you who are controlling me?" Neve immediately turned to look at Harvey, looking vigilant.Harvey rolled his eyes. "What's the point of me doing that?""So you can get my gran
"Stop! Everyone, stop!" When Lune and Sol saw what was happening, they were stunned and stopped right before Harvey. They knew Geoffrey's condition, so they were very sure that it was Geoffrey's inner demon going wild just now."Drop all your Rainstorm Needles right now! We can decide everything once Mr. Geoffrey is awake!" Lune ordered the men and quickly checked the mobile that was already set up nearby, wanting to see what was happening."Are you stupid, Lune? Didn't you see that my grandpa is almost dead because of him? Sol, stop them right now! Do it! Kill Harvey! Kill whoever dares to stop you!" Neve screamed, on the verge of a breakdown.The dozens of security guards exchanged glances and hesitated and did not dare move when they saw how chaotic it was in the study."We'll see who's behind this right now!" Lune had already grabbed the phone, and he immediately projected what the phone had recorded onto the wide-screen TV in the study.Soon, they all saw how Neve appeared at
Harvey instinctively kicked Geoffrey's chair when he narrowed his eyes, looking at what was happening. There was a bang, and the chair fell to the ground. The silver needles from the Rainstorm Needles flew past where the two of them were just moments ago, striking the big desk.Instantly, a big hole appeared on the desk, and corrosive liquid flowed out. It was terrifying. However, Neve blankly raised her right hand. Just as Harvey was about to make his move, Geoffrey appeared right before Neve and grabbed her right hand tightly, his expression brutal."How dare you… I have raised you for twenty years! And now, you want to kill me? Time to die!" As Geoffrey said that, he moved Neve's arm and aimed the Rainstorm Needles in her sleeve right on her own forehead.Harvey blinked, and he instantly knew what was happening.Because of Neve's assault, the inner demon within Geoffrey clawed its way out. Geoffrey had already lost control. Meanwhile, Neve started to regain some clarity from the
Harvey smiled. "Aren't you afraid that it'll cause discord once your words reach back to Grand City if you praise me this much? I'm going to Grand City eventually."Geoffrey's eyes slightly narrowed when he heard it, and then he smiled. "It makes sense if you're going to the city. Since you're the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance, which makes you the mayor of Grand City, it's logical if you want to go there. But there's something you need to be mindful of. The Seven Families publicly acknowledged Dan as the scion of Grand City, and everyone thought he would become the representative."If you go to Grand City, everyone will see you as trying to usurp power whether you want it or not. When that happens, the two of you will never have peace until one of you is dead…""Dead?" Harvey smirked. "What makes him think he has the right to call himself Grand City's scion? If he wants to become the owner of Grand City, he has to reclaim his status and become a representative and not
Meanwhile, Sol moved a chair over for Harvey and made a cup of tea for him. Harvey drank the flower tea that had just been freshly brewed. After a drink, he said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Geoffrey.""You saved me, so it's nothing strange for me to show you some appreciation," replied Geoffrey with a smile as he waved his hand. Then, Sol and Lune closed and covered all the windows and doors leading to the studies. Later, he said, "Harvey, I've prepared everything I need to. It's all in your hands now."In the next few days, he had already written down his own comprehension of his martial arts and those that he believed needed to be recorded, then passed them to Sol and Lune for safekeeping. Geoffrey was prepared for the consequences of his treatment."Alright. Since you have made the decision, then I won't delay this any further. But I suggest that we should make a video recording. That way, you will not only know what changes occur to your body but also what I did." Harvey sugge
"You heard it too, didn't you? I gave Victoria a call," Harvey said openly. "Victoria is the eldest princess of the Empire. She owed me one, so I asked her a favor. To her, something like this is easily within her powers."Yvonne was shocked. "You're actually familiar with the Empire's eldest princess?"Harvey smiled. "It's all in the past. Not to mention that this time, it involves the lives of many of your relatives. It's more convenient if the Empire is the one that makes the move."Yvonne gave it a thought and mumbled, "Sir, you probably need to repay her for a favor this huge, right? If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll have the Xaviers prepare them.""Well… There's no need to," Harvey said as he glanced at his phone screen with a message written in the Empire's script. "I guess this is all over once I find some time to treat her to a meal."When she heard it, Yvonne's expression instantly turned strange. But she was a smart woman; she knew there were things she s
