“Now, I’m giving you one last chance. Hand over the security guard and break one arm and leg of your choosing within ten minutes. Once you do that, then I’ll let you off the hook!“If you’re still up on your high horse after ten minutes, don’t blame me for what happens next!”After his speech, Steve Lee casually sat on the couch, then crossed one leg over the other while squinting at Harvey York.When the beautiful secretaries looked at Steve, their eyes were all dazzling brightly in amazement.This was the legendary big character, the legendary domineering CEO!This was the man that could win any battle by careful planning!And compared to him, Harvey was just some dirt-poor filth.Harvey chuckled while seeing the sight.“Looks like you’re a bit smarter than your dead brother. At least you know you need strength in numbers to come at me...”Steve replied calmly, “This isn’t just strength in numbers. We have two hundred here when you’re alone. We’ll still have two hundred men
Steve Lee had been around Country H for many years. He had heard everything from the fourth master of Wolsing to Mordu’s sixth prince.Harvey York should have a prestigious title for how powerful he was, yet there was not much information about him when Steve ran a background check.And within those shadows, he saw another man.‘Tyson Woods?!‘The new upstart in the streets of South Light, Tyson Woods?!’Even though Star Chaebol did not have any interaction with South Light before, they had checked adequately for all the big characters within South Light before coming here.And of all the people that they checked, Tyson was the one that they looked up to the most.According to Star Chaebol’s plan, they must do everything in their power to get closer to Tyson no matter what.With the support from the streets of South Light, Star Chaebol could do whatever they wanted.But they did not think that the new legendary upstart of the streets, Tyson, actually brought along a thousand m
Steve Lee’s expression was horrible. He exclaimed coldly at this moment, “Harvey…“We surrender!“Please don’t kill us!”Before Steve could even send out the order, the Taekwondo blackbelts from Country J had already slammed their knees on the floor. Many of them were raising their hands above their heads, signaling that they had no malicious intentions at all.Against a thousand well-trained men, cleanly admitting defeat was the only decision. Compared to surviving, so what if they had to surrender?Harvey York tilted his head slightly.Tyson Woods then immediately came forward with a few others to tie up those so-called Taekwondo blackbelts.Only Steve and his beautiful secretaries were still standing amongst everyone from the strong and fierce Star Chaebol.“Harvey York!“You’re crossing the line!“At the end of the day, I’m still the son of Representative Lee from Star Chaebol. I’m a big character even compared to everyone in the company!“I’m not someone that you can ju
Steve Lee’s face was as swollen as a pig. He was screaming furiously while his mouth and nose were bleeding profusely.He was an extremely well-known prodigy back in Country J, adept at literature and combat prowess!He was also the last disciple of the Taekwondo master back in the day!The representative of Star Chaebol’s kid!No matter the perspective, he was still a big character with a great status.But at this moment, he was just a drowning dog in front of Harvey. He had exhausted all his strength to fight back.The most important thing was if Harvey used any legendary move against Steve, he would definitely admit defeat.But Harvey was just using the palm of his hand.‘I don’t care how fancy or terrifying Steve’s moves are.‘I’ll come at him with slaps across his face.‘The important thing is that he can’t block them even if he wanted to. Dodging them is also out of the question!’Slap!With another slap, Steve was once again sent flying.“Come, you mighty character
On the lower floor of the Gardens Residence, a pink Rolls Royce Phantom was parked on the dedicated parking space. Countless people were showing all sorts of emotions, from admiration to jealousy, when they walked by.There was a tall and slender man leaning on the side of the car. The people that passed by were all captivated by his sight.Many women were even considering him to be their Prince Charming.Soon after, an extremely enchanting woman walked out from the Gardens Residence.Mandy Zimmer’s gaze was in a bit of a trance when she saw Harvey York.‘Is he still the same live-in husband?’When Harvey saw Mandy coming, he immediately gestured to Mandy and said, “Come on in, beautiful!”Soon after both of them had gotten inside the car, it immediately automatically started itself up. The sight had shocked everyone within the vicinity.In the car, Harvey threw over some papers to Mandy and said, “All the documents are in here.”Mandy took the documents and had a quick look o
Mandy Zimmer walked up and shook the young ladies’ hands, then smiled and introduced Harvey York to everyone.“This is my husband, Harvey.“Darling, let me introduce you.“This is Stacy Leo of the Leo family from Hong Kong. Even though Miss Leo is just a collateral relative, she is quite an influential woman. She came here this time to expand the market of Buckwood…“This here is Rae Flynn from Hong Kong’s Flynn family…“This here is…”Mandy introduced each and every one of those young ladies in a single breath.Harvey realized that those ladies were all from the four top-rated families from Hong Kong. Or rather, they had quite a lot of connections with the four top-rated families.Harvey took a closer look at Stacy and confirmed that there were no plans that were laid by Quinton York. It should have been a sheer coincidence that Mandy met her somehow.Without a second thought, Harvey smiled out of respect and said, “Hello, I’m Harvey. Nice to meet you all.”Stacy sized up Ha
Harvey York did not expose Brock Park’s weak identity for Mandy Zimmer’s sake. He then politely greeted the crowd, “Nice to see you.”“You’re Mandy’s live-in husband? I heard that both of you have been married for three years, but you haven’t even slept with her!”After the small talk, Brock was sizing up Harvey with a cold gaze in his eyes.“Use my name when you get in trouble around Buckwood next time. I’ll cover for you.”‘I’ll cover for you if you get in trouble around Buckwood.’Brock Park, who came from Country J, was boasting as if this is his country. It was as if he’s in control of everything here.Stacy Leo and Rae Flynn were shyly chuckling along with the others and said, “As expected of Sir Park to be this domineering.”Harvey then replied calmly, “Thanks, but no thanks.”Harvey looked at Mandy after his speech. He felt like there was no need to waste time and do this so-called business with Brock. He would rather go for a stroll with his wife.Because no matter ho
At this moment, Brock Park shifted his gaze toward Stacy Leo.Stacy then immediately clutched Mandy Zimmer’s hand, not letting her go.“Oh, Mandy. Everyone’s just kidding around. There’s no need to be this mad! Do you want me to apologize in Sir Park’s place?”Harvey York looked at Stacy and was about to say something, but Mandy cut him off calmly before he could even speak.“No matter how bad he’s living his life, he is still the consultant for the government of Buckwood.”Everyone felt indifferent after hearing those words.The people were either from Country J or Hong Kong. They would naturally not know the authority that a consultant in Country H represented.But after seeing Mandy’s grim face, Rae Flynn then swiftly tried to mediate the situation.“Alright, alright, we’re all here to have a good time tonight. Let’s grab a nice drink for this occasion. Go, bring the Ace of Spades that I saved here!”Rae then winked at one of Brock’s followers, Curtis Park, after her speech
Harvey still didn't relax and continued to make a roll.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!The assassins with the Royal Flush continued their attacks. Very quickly, all the assassins wearing their military uniform fell to the ground, dying with a peaceful look on their faces.This also proved just how powerful the Royal Flush was. That weapon could kill even the True Warriors of legends. The ordinary assassins didn't stand a chance.At this time, Harvey had already confirmed the location of the assassins using the Royal Flush. He immediately headed straight to the entrance and raised the repeating crossbows in his hand. Then, he aimed on top of a streetlight right outside the entrance and pulled the trigger.Whoosh!The masked man standing on the street light with the Royal Flush in hand couldn't react in time. He immediately let go of the Royal Flush in his hand. A dagger slid out into his hand and he immediately jumped right on top of the street light, heading straight for Harvey, the dag
The assassin who opened the door of the fridge couldn't even cry out as he felt a pang of pain in his neck before crumbling to the ground without making a sound.All the assassins were stunned. Before they could reach, Harvey's figure appeared and the knives in his hand began to dance. Blood splattered everywhere as a few more people slumped to the ground noiselessly.However, these assassins were indeed quite skilled. When they were ambushed, one of them managed to escape the room to call for help. As he did that, all the assassins scattered around the café instantly assembled in this location."Fire! Right now!"As if they knew just how powerful Harvey was, the people outside didn't care if the assassins inside were still alright. The moment they were in position, all of them raised the guns and repeating crossbows in their hand and pulled the trigger as they aimed into the kitchen.Harvey's expression was calm. He kicked on a steel trolley outward, then immediately took a step
When Jessica saw how Harvey glared at the assassins and gunners with dark eyes, her expression changed again. While she was considered part of Grand City and was also trained in martial arts, she knew she couldn't fight off so many people.She was not a King of Arms or a True Warrior. How could she stop an assault from so many sides? When the thought flashed through her mind, she held on to Harvey and said, "Harvey, if you can protect me and my family, I can tell you everything. Everything I did was ordered by Dan. Other than Dan, Emery is also part of this, and I have proof!"They have two objectives. They want you to become a permanent enemy of Sienna. They're going to even find a chance to make it look like Sienna ordered this and overtake her completely!"Harvey glared at the group and said, "I can understand why Emery wanted to overtake Sienna, since familial love is a joke in such wealthy families. But I thought Dan was courting Sienna. Why is he doing that?""Because Dan c
Jessica noticed that while Harvey was simply having a friendly chat, he had almost revealed all her activities when she was in Wolsing. She knew very clearly that once he told everything to the Wrights and the Yates, not only would they kill her, but they would also kill her entire family.Most importantly, he was able to easily deduce that Dan was behind her. That filled Jessica with horror. She was terrified by how direct Harvey was and knew everything that had happened.The last person that made Jessica feel like this…It was her employer, Dan. Just when Jessica was hesitating if she should sell Dan out, Harvey suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the corridor not far away. Several kids were running around in the corridor. It was quite noisy, especially in a quiet atmosphere like this.Many passersby simply glanced at the children and didn't give them another look. But for some reason, Harvey felt like there was something wrong. Then, he smelled something like tobacco.
"Or maybe you're thinking that after working a little bit harder for a while, you'll be able to leave the country and live under the radar. Then, you can go to Country A and live the life you want? Your parents have already been sent over, right?"No matter what happens, Dan treats those who work for him well. But… There's something I don't understand. You're willing to leave your home permanently just because he treats you well? You're willing to give him your undying loyalty just like that? Is it worth it?" Harvey asked as he put his cup of latte down on the table with a curious expression.The ordinary young woman shuddered slightly before raising her head. She gave Harvey a look and said, "Are you talking to me, sir? Do we know each other?"Harvey smiled. "We don't, but I'm pretty sure you know me. Or should I say… It's exactly because you know me that you went to Country A and persuaded Royce to come to Wolsing. Whether it's the 150 million dollars given to Lilian or lying to X
The next day…What happened to Geraldton Hotel was being reported on the news. It was about how an underground criminal empire in Wolsing was being swept by the authorities. Harvey didn't expect things to go so out of hand. At the same time, he now knew that no matter what the Yates of Country A wanted to do, they wouldn't be able to make any moves in the short term after what happened.There was another rumor that Kyros alone had borne the brunt of the crimes for the Wright family. The Wrights of Wolsing had removed his name from the family and that was enough to settle things. They were also not part of the media report.It was easy for one to see that a compromise had been reached by all the factions involved. Otherwise, if the Wrights of Wolsing really wanted to get involved, no one could estimate how this would develop.Just as Harvey was reading the news, his phone buzzed. Yvonne's stern voice came from the other side. "Sir, I've managed to investigate everything clearly.
Just as Harvey was thinking about who was behind this, his phone suddenly started to buzz. He picked it up—there was only one message."Interesting," Harvey said with a deep smile as he read it. "It's George. After his investigation, the one leading the task force has a really clean background. However, when he was at university, he was fully sponsored by a charity fund belonging to the Jeans of Mordu."After his graduation, the speed he gets promoted is also much faster than his peers around the same age. No matter how I looked at it, someone had been giving him a boost. However, is this the result of Mandy going over to Purdue Mountain? It doesn't look like Zayden, as the patriarch of one of the top ten families, wants to calm things down…"Feels like he wants to make things even worse. How is this going to benefit the Jeans of Mordu?"Yvonne narrowed her eyes slightly. "At the very least," she said, "there are two ways they can benefit from this. Firstly, it's to clarify their
The next day.The estate in the third ring of Wolsing.Harvey had originally planned to go to Mordu at night when Mandy called him. She told him everything that happened in Geraldton Hotel had been settled. Zayden's side would make a move and demand a direct explanation from them for what happened.Harvey was quite shocked when he heard this.The leader of the Jeans of Mordu had been too discreet, so much so that this was the first time he heard about this name. But the problem was, Harvey didn't believe that the Jeans of Mordu who had been making things difficult for Mandy all this while would suddenly make a move without cause.However, Mandy kept on telling Harvey that everything was over. She would keep Xynthia in Mordu for a few more days. Once the dust had settled, she would then send Xynthia back to Wolsing.Hearing Mandy so confident with herself, Harvey decided not to say anything else. That being said, he still her Mandy that if anything happened, she must tell him imme
"In other words, you don't have to worry about this. I'll take care of it," Zayden said. "As for the Ninth Branch, that's the fruit of your labor. At least, I don't see anyone has the right to replace you as the head. Unless you have made a very serious mistake, your status as the head of the Ninth Branch is guaranteed. Remember, never say something like giving up your spot as the head ever again."Top families like the Jeans of Mordu have their own rules. There are certain positions that can't be taken just because you wanted to, and there are those that you can't leave just as easily as well."Mandy was stunned after she heard Zayden's criticism of her. Then, she nodded. "Understood. Thank you for your lesson, sir. I will do everything I can in the service of the family."Mandy wasn't that surprised to see that Zayden was willing to make a personal appearance. Since Kyros didn't show any respect to the Jeans of Mordu, Zayden needed to make a show of force once things reached thi
