At Buckwood Hotel.A few representatives of big businesses from Mordu gathered together. One of the men leading the group was Charlie Gibbs.He was standing on the side of a wine table at this moment while speaking respectfully on the phone.“Master Todd, rest assured. We remember what you asked of us!”“We’ll make sure to film a spectacular movie tonight. This woman will be robbed of her standing and reputation!”Charlie was showing an evil smirk.The Jean family actually controlled the few businesses that came from Mordu from behind the scenes.Todd Jean had given them orders last night. Charlie and the others would naturally do as he asked.After Charlie hung up the phone, he started to chug yogurt along with the other representatives. Yogurt is used to cure hangovers, and it has proven to be quite effective.Around half an hour later, the members of Regency Enterprise pushed the door and came inside.Charlie showed a sullen face while standing in front when he saw many pe
Looking at Mandy Zimmer being hesitant, Charlie Gibbs smiled.“CEO Zimmer, even strong forces like ours can’t meddle with local powerhouses! Regency Enterprise is the local authority, after all! Don’t tell me that you’re actually scared!”The others burst out laughing.“CEO Zimmer, you can’t be doing business if you can’t drink!”“Everyone that does business are all really good drinkers!”“We won’t force you if you don’t want to drink, but you can only abide by our terms of conditions in return!”Several bosses looked unperturbed, as if they had Mandy under their control.Harvey York walked up suddenly after seeing Mandy frown.“Alright, we accept!”All the higher-ups of Regency Enterprise glared at Harvey furiously after seeing him speak. They felt that Harvey did not have the right to represent Regency Enterprise.And Harvey was the one to blame for what happened to Regency Enterprise.Mandy sighed. She seemed a little disappointed as her gaze landed on Harvey.She wanted
Naturally, Mandy Zimmer knew full well that there would be no need to talk business if she changed her mind.Charlie Gibbs and the others let out a broad smile as if they had won.Everything was according to their plan. They felt delighted.That night, they would film a movie starring Mandy herself!As for Harvey York, the idiot, they would just spare him a few dollars when everything would be said and done.At that moment, Harvey walked up and then looked at Charlie with a sarcastic expression.“I only have one condition. You’d have to outdrink me before you can have a turn with CEO Zimmer!“If not, you have no right to drink with her!”“Alright then! Let’s have at it!”Charlie and the others could not wait any longer.Harvey was only one man, so what if he could drink a thousand glasses?They had ten men!“Right! Since we’re drinking, other miscellaneous people cannot be here. We wouldn’t want anybody else drinking for each other now!”Charlie glanced at the higher-ups a
“Come! Another round!”Rounds after rounds had passed.Finally, Charlie Gibbs and the others drank about forty ounces of liquor.Harvey York was even more insane. He drank at least four hundred ounces alone.But his face was still indifferent as if there was nothing wrong with him.Not only did the sight scare Charlie, but it also frightened Mandy even more. Her expression was horrible at this moment.She thought he was bluffing, but he was actually this capable!Charlie and the others drank yogurt earlier on to increase their alcohol tolerance.But they still felt horrible after drinking forty ounces of liquor.“Everyone, are you still holding up? Let’s continue for a few more rounds!” Harvey said while smiling, then asked the waiter to bring more potent liquor.Charlie and the others could barely hold in their bladder after seeing the sight.But they were in disbelief. They felt that Harvey could not possibly hold on any longer.Soon, liquor that had up to sixty percent a
Mandy Zimmer was scared away from the box. The sight was utterly disgusting.Charlie Gibbs was dumbfounded. It was his first time experiencing something this embarrassing.“Everyone, let me help you!”Harvey York smiled while looking at the others.How could he not see through those people’s evil intentions?He just did not give them time to react and poured the liquor right into their mouths.“Blaaargh!”Soon, those people had no control over their bowels.“CEO Charlie, we’re just getting started! How about another round?”Harvey smiled while carrying the Drink of Life to Charlie.Charlie was rolling on the ground, full of pain and despair.He tilted his head up just to look at Harvey while showing an unbelievable expression.‘Is he even human?’‘This is insane!’‘He just doesn’t get drunk!’“I… I can’t do this anymore!”Charlie shook his head while trembling in fear.“That’s not good. According to our deal, we’d have to settle a score here!”Harvey was smiling.“I…
“Nothing! Nothing! I’m just trying to say that Brother-In-Law will never be a fit for you! You’re just too outstanding!“Hurry up and divorce him already!” Xynthia Zimmer said shyly.Mandy Zimmer tapped on Xynthia’s head and replied, “You’re always up to no good!“You shouldn’t meddle with things that concern your brother-in-law and me, alright?“We’re adults already. You should focus on your studies!”Xynthia clicked her tongue and replied, “Well, I’d need a book to study from first! If Brother-In-Law can’t figure this out, you have to hand him over as repayment!”“What?!” Mandy thought she heard wrong.“Xynthia, do you even understand what you’re saying?”Mandy could not believe what she heard.Her own sister is always up to no good! How could she say something like this? Xynthia puffed her chest and tilted her head.“Of course I understand! He’d have to be responsible for me if I can’t study because of him!”Xynthia’s heart was full of glee when she said those words.
At the Yates family house from Buckwood.The house was basically deserted at this point.When the pillars of the family had fallen, the family itself withered.And the company, Silver Nimbus Enterprise, was robbed away from Mandy Zimmer, went completely bankrupt.In the span of just a few days, Grandma Yates’ hair had turned white as snow, as if she had gotten twenty years older.The previously grand and glorious Yates family from Buckwood had turned into a dilapidated family then.But the family still gathered together at this moment.“How is it? What did the Yates family from America say?” Grandma Yates swiftly asked Phoebe Yates, who just hung up on the phone.Phoebe trembled.“They agreed to help us, but on one condition.“From today onward, we would have to be the slaves of their family.”“From now on, we’ll be actual slaves for the Yates family from America.”The expressions of the family changed.“Grandma Yates, we can’t accept this offer! The Yates family from Buck
Todd’s eyes gleamed a cold gleam. He gritted his teeth. “Master Russel, please give me another chance. This time, I will certainly not fail!”That afternoon, Todd arrived at the Regency Enterprise with the contract from before.Mandy had to meet them, as they were also the stockholders of Regency Enterprise.“You’re Mandy Zimmer, aren’t you? We came here with only one thing in mind. We want all of Regency Enterprise’s stocks!”Todd spoke in an unyielding tone.Mandy furrowed her eyebrows. “That’s impossible. I just took over this company. Plus, the issue regarding the cash flow is being handled right now, and there’s a lot of development that can be done in the near future. Why would I sell the stocks to you?”“Yes, Mr. Jean. We wanted to sell the stocks a few days ago, but we’re not opting for that anymore.”“Perhaps you need to be more up-to-date with the recent happenings. Still, since you’re one of our stockholders, you can just sit back and enjoy all the future dividends.”
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
