Rubert was only able to sigh in relief after kneeling for a long time.He raised his head to look at Harvey, trembling.The moment he confirmed Harvey’s face, he lowered his head in fear once more.“Are…are you alright?”His followers had no courage to look Harvey in the eye. Like Rubert, they were all trembling on the ground, completely terrified.Harvey replied calmly, “I’m fine, but the people from your country sure are bold.”“They had the gall to force my wife to sell Regency Enterprise.”“Then they dared to dirty my favourite shirt.”“Should I take all these as your country provoking me on purpose?”“No, no, no, no! Your Excellence! We mean no such thing! No such thing at all!”Rubert grovelled on the ground, filled with fear.“The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets does not allow this! There must be a fool here who’s causing a ruckus!”“I’ll be sure to give you a fair statement!”Rubert turned around as he knelt, sending a furious glare at those from Morgan Financial
What kind of identity did Harvey have?!Even the vice CEO of Morgan Financial Group was this scared of him!My God!Unbelievable!Nobody could even begin to guess Harvey’s identity.Harvey said calmly, “Forget it, don’t bring their family into this. Just let the person who caused all this to give me a statement. There’s no need to get other people involved.”“Yes! Of course! I’ll be sure to give you a fair statement! Please wait!”Charley crawled up and glared at Eddy, who was lying on the ground. “What is going on here? I let you be the representative of Morgan Financial Group so that you can earn us more benefits, not for you to stir up this much trouble!”“Do you understand that your actions today will cause the group to suffer unsurmountable losses? Maybe even drive us to complete bankruptcy?!”Eddy trembled in fear“This is unfair! Who is he?! Why can he just trample on me like this?!”“Unfair?!”Charley chuckled coldly. “You have no right to know this man’s identity!”
Later, Charley and Rubert swiftly left along with the rest of their people.The banquet fell into dead silence.Everyone was shivering to no end as they stared at Harvey, full of fear.They were not idiots.Harvey could easily suppress someone from The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets. Since that was the case, his words were enough to make everyone present lose everything.Harvey smiled and looked at Zach. His tone was cold. “I heard that you went out of your way to cause a ruckus on my wife’s worksite, Mr. Zach.”“Those were three old renovation projects approved by Yoel Graham himself. Did you suddenly attain the courage of the gods? You actually dared to halt the projects?”Cold sweat dripped from Zach’s head. He knew full well that the man in front of him had an extraordinary status.He even had the urge to kneel at this moment.But as a government official, he understood.He could not kneel no matter what! He had to fight for reason, even if he died trying.If not, his
Not long after, a car stopped at the entrance of Westin Hotel.A middle-aged man sporting a large belly walked gloomily out of the car.When Zach saw the man, he was filled with joy. He immediately rushed forward.“Father! You’re finally here! You must help me regain justice!”Zach’s father, Richard, carried a strong stench of alcohol. He was obviously drinking moments ago.He looked at Zach and asked, “Who is it?! How dare anyone disrespect me in Buckwood?!”Zach was still calm. He gestured at Harvey and whispered, “That’s him, Father. But his identity seems to be quite extraordinary.”“Extraordinary?”Richard sized up Harvey, then let out a derisive snort.“I’ve been working for the government for so many years. I’ve never seen a man as young as this with an extraordinary identity in the government!”“No matter how high a person’s status is, they’re all trash before government officials!”Zach received a burst of courage after hearing his father’s words.He initially assu
Boom!The words hit Zach like a strike of lightning, turning him weak.Richard trembled in fear, now completely sober.The father and son stared at Wesley in disbelief.Zach was fired…He was fired this easily?!Zach sank to the ground, his face pale. Richard soon returned to his senses. He snarled coldly, “Wesley, don’t forget that we have powerful people supporting the Braffs!”“Can you bear the consequences of firing my son so hastily?”Wesley, in return, glared daggers at Richard.“You have powerful people behind you? Richard, I ask you not to say their names! They’d just end up dead along with you!”“Wesley! You’re only the first-in-command of Buckwood’s housing system. Your status is equivalent to mine! How dare you threaten me?!”Richard flew into a fit of rage.“Threaten you?”Wesley chuckled coldly.He immediately called a number and said in a respectful tone, “Mr. Graham, I’ve arrived at the scene. I’ve already kicked the bug out of the housing system.”“But
Seeing that Zach was almost strangled to death, Wesley waved his hand. “Take them away! They must be punished by law! He must not die here!”A few inspectors stormed in and grabbed the father and son, taking them away.Naturally, Wesley had already contacted the police before coming here.Soon after, he and his men left the scene.The people present looked at Harvey, perplexed. Consultant York?!This man’s identity was terrifying!Even Mandy was shocked by Harvey. She couldn’t believe that her husband had become Buckwood government’s very own consultant!There was no paycheck for this position, but...The authority he held as a consultant was immense!Harvey was also in charge of the investment and business engagement forum. Safe to say, the fate of several small businesses lie in his hands.The Zimmers…They actually had such a powerful man in the family?!Harvey smiled and said, “Please sit. Isn’t this supposed to be a gathering?”The crowd all sat, looking mystified.
At the Gardens Residence.Mandy sat in front of Harvey while Simon, Lilian, and Xynthia sat on the side.The whole family was quite anxious.Anxiety aside, both Simon and Lilian were quite exhilarated.Mandy took a deep breath, then looked Harvey in the eye.“Darling, are you going to tell me everything that happened today? How did you even achieve your new status?”Harvey smiled. “Darling, I forgot to tell you.”“After leaving Sky Corporation, I found a new job.”“I’m now the consultant of the government of Buckwood.”“I’m in charge of the investment and business engagement forum as well.”Gasp—!“The government’s consultant?!”Simon gasped.“Harvey! You don’t have a fever, do you? You’re the consultant that the Buckwood government recently hired?! The legendary Consultant York?!”Lilian also asked hesitantly, “Mandy, you can’t joke about this. Although the status of Consultant York isn’t as high as Prince York or the Head Coach, it still bears a lot of weight!”“Harvey
In Buckwood, in a luxurious villa.Several leads of the Jean family from Mordu were gathered here.Todd Jean held the glass in his hand and looked at a document with a solemn expression.After a long time, Todd put down the document in his hand and whispered, “Elder, word came that they have found out who Harvey York’s backer is!“It turns out that Yoel Graham, the first-in-command of Buckwood, is his real backer!“And he’s currently the consultant to the Buckwood government. He is arguably the second most powerful big shot!“Very powerful and influential!”Todd showed fear on his face while saying those things.If they were in Mordu, the Jean family from Mordu would show no fear.However, this was Buckwood.Although the Jean family was a powerful force from outside, they couldn’t overwhelm the local forces!Todd took the document. After reading it for a while, he reached out his right hand and slammed it on the armrest, saying, “Although we’ve lost the Morgan Financial Grou
"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
"You…" Vaida slightly frowned at Coco.Harvey smiled instead. "Vaida, now that things have reached this juncture, we can't end this right here. That way, we'll simply allow them to make their moves. Maybe they'll even think we've chosen to withdraw. That's why my principle has always been to stay put or make a bombastic move. If we don't completely crush their pride this time, they might even think they have some skills."Harvey had already decided that things had gone out of hand, and then he would have to make this end right here and now. This was called fixing the situation in one go and not wasting time."You're still going to act tough at this critical point, pretty boy?" Coco laughed angrily when she saw that Harvey still did not take her seriously. "I'm telling you this right now. I will get my revenge no matter the cost, even if my older brother will punish me because of what will happen. I will make you understand that you can't simply humiliate the Parkers and Parkerville!
After Coco gave out her order, all the elites beside her took out their Rainstorm Needles and immediately pounced at Harvey's location. While these weapons were quite rare outside, they were common in Grand City.Harvey frowned slightly. He was not worried about his own safety, but he did not want Alexei and Vaida to be caught in the crossfire. He immediately glanced at Alexei and said, "Take care of Vaida, and don't come close."And then, Harvey charged into the crowd immediately.He first grabbed an elite by the neck, picked him up like a sandbag, and then brutally hurled him away.Bang!After that loud noise, around seven elites had to retreat as they started coughing blood. As for the Rainstorm Needles in their hands, Harvey had all crushed them under his foot before they could even use it. In less than ten seconds, the so-called elites had all fallen to the ground.In short, the bodyguards that circled Coco meant nothing to Harvey. After finishing with them, Harvey glared at
"Hereward Parker! Get your arse here and kill him! Kill him quickly!" Coco was overwhelmed with fury at this moment. The air of superiority around her was gone, her expression replaced by feral rage. Then, she pointed at Harvey as she gritted her teeth, her voice sounding demonlike.Whoosh!The moment she finished saying that, a figure jumped in from outside the window of the Supreme Chamber. He was so quick that he appeared right before Harvey in the blink of an eye. He did not waste any time and simply raised his hand, punching his fist toward Harvey's face.Unceasing Gate Style, Unshackled Fist.While the attack looked like it had no power behind it, there was an indescribable sharpness behind that attack.When Alexei saw what happened, his expression changed. "Hereward? That martial arts fanatic? Be careful, big bro! You shouldn't underestimate his power!"Tina smirked when she heard what Alexei said. "Since you know who Hereward is, then you should know how powerful he is. H
Harvey didn't let Coco get off scot-free. Instead, he walked up to her with a blank expression and slapped her directly across the face.Slap!Coco let out a painful cry; she immediately flew backward, slamming into a wall opposite the door with a loud bang.Harvey then took out a wet paper towel to wipe his fingers and said calmly, "Why don't you guess if I'm bold enough to kill you?"Coco held her face as she stumbled to her feet, staring at Harvey with wide eyes. The pain on her face aside, she was filled with disbelief and indescribable fury. She couldn't believe there was someone in Grand City not afraid to move against her and even dared to assault her directly.There was no difference between this and having a death wish!She was the princess of Parkerville! In her own family and among the Seven Families of Grand City, she was already standing at the top of the hierarchy. How could Harvey stand up to her? What leverage did he have against her?"What?!"Tina and the othe
"I'm warning you! You better grovel at her feet right now and slap yourself a hundred times so that this is over! Otherwise, you're going to die a horrible death!" Tina yelled as she bared her teeth at Harvey, as if wanting to shred him into pieces.It was clear that to Tina, since she couldn't do anything to Vaida, she could at least take it out on Harvey, right? She was very familiar with the heirs of the powerful families within Grand City. Harvey was very unfamiliar to her and didn't look like someone important at all.Even Coco was sizing Harvey up from head to toe. "You should know your place," she said coldly. "There's a hierarchy in this world, and there are rules you shouldn't touch. There are also people you shouldn't offend so easily. In other words, when you want to step in for someone else, you should also see just how much strength you have. Otherwise, you might lose your head before you can even do anything."Both sides had completely turned against each other tod
Despite his fear, Alexei finally stood up and yelled at Coco and her entourage. "Senior Vaida is fine! You can't do whatever you want! Do you really think you can act as you please with the Belladonna Cult?!"Harvey shot him a surprised glance. He wasn't expecting Alexei to be courageous enough to speak out like that. Vaida remained silent; she only looked at Coco coldly, as if wanting to see what Coco was going to do next."Who do you think you are, Alexei? Since when do you have any power to decide whether Vaida is sick? Only the doctors are qualified to do that," Coco sneered. "And only the doctors who work for the Parker family, at that. Now, take Vaida to the mental health institution. Stop wasting our time!" Coco presented herself assertively, as if she was going to use this excuse to admit Vaida into the institution.What of the consequences?With Parkerville's influence in Grand City currently, they didn't have to care about the consequences. Before Coco's men could
