Just as Brock was at a loss and didn’t know what to do…Avel’s face brightened up as he looked at Stacy and the rest.These women were social butterflies, and they were quite pretty.Thinking of this, Avel said indifferently, “Well, I’m in a good mood today. I’ll give you a chance. Guys get out, but girls stay and serve me!”Both Stacy and Rae were shocked. Serving such a young master from the streets wasn’t easy. If they weren’t careful, they might be destroyed!Most importantly, they cherished their bodies. Ordinary people didn’t deserve to sleep with them.The gangsters behind Avel licked their lips, anticipating. Stacy and the rest shuddered at the sight.“Don’t go overboard. We, Star Chaebol, aren’t that easy to bully either!”Brock’s subordinate stood up and spoke out.Bang!Before he could finish speaking, Avel smashed a wine bottle on him and he slumped to the ground.The citizens of Country J were skillful at bragging and boasting.However, they would immediately
The name Avel Naiswell alone incited terror.Even the bragging Brock Park was now reduced to a coward. He himself never imagined that Harvey wouldn’t hesitate to hurt Avel. This wasn’t about impulsiveness.A man who didn’t even have the courage to protect his own woman was worthless, even if he did have two balls.“You slapped me?”Avel paused. He then reached to touch his face, completely taken by surprise.Brock and the rest thought they were seeing things.Stacy, Rae, and her posse couldn’t believe what they were seeing.They tried looking carefully again. He was still the same man!However, this live-in son-in-law now carried a tough and hard-edged image, very different from what he seemed like previously.When did a live-in son-in-law seem so powerful?“Who are you?!”Avel spurted out a mouthful of blood. He waved to stop the gangsters who were glaring at Harvey, ready to smash him into a pulp.“You’re the first one who dared to hit me at my place. You should tell me
Avel was thrown off a few steps backward. He stared at Harvey in shock.Everyone else was a little bit startled. However, it wasn’t because they thought Harvey was skillful. Instead, they were shocked as to how someone could be so stupid.Brock, Stacy, and everyone present turned pale with fright and kept backing away.Only Mandy, despite looking as white as a sheet, stood beside Harvey.His two slaps had eliminated any possibilities of reconciliation between the two sides.Even ordinary people couldn’t afford to bear this disgrace, for fear that they would be rendered completely furious. This was especially so for the young master from the streets, Avel Naiswell.Harvey was finished. He was dead meat!It took a long time for Avel to react. He touched his face once more, and shot Harvey a livid grin. “Brat, how dare you slap me again?”“So what?”“How about another slap?”Harvey was indifferent. He then gave Avel another slap in the face.Slap!Such a clear sound! This slap
Harvey looked at Avel nonchalantly and said, “Are you sure you want to fight me?”Avel was startled. Then, he chuckled.What’s going on today?A live-in son-in-law slapped him three times in the face of a large number of people. He even asked whether Avel wanted to fight him!Avel had grown delusional from rage. He assumed anyone who had the courage to slap him would either come from a wealthy family or be a prince.Rather than a live-in son-in-law.If Avel didn’t kill this live-in son-in-law today, then he wouldn’t have the right to show his face in the streets in the future.“This, this, this…”Seeing Harvey’s arrogant demeanor as he faced Avel, Brock, Stacy, Rae, and others were filled with despair.“Recently, the situation in Buckwood is so chaotic that the Naiswells have struggled to maintain the title of being the only first-class family. They’ve done everything possible to achieve this.”“But you, a Young Master of the Naiswells, didn’t help. Instead, you put on arroga
Immediately afterward, Avel’s subordinates grabbed many empty wine bottles. It was obvious that they were going to smash the bottles on Harvey’s head in a while.“Let me advise you. There is no one around now. If you kneel and grovel, you may still have a chance!”“Yes! Just grovel a few times, and Young Master Naiswell might be in a good mood and let you live.”“You’re quite talented. If you still don’t know where you stand right now, then it’ll be too late for you later.”The few women who were left stared at the ever calm Harvey, and thought that he was still pretending.‘At a time like this, why not hurry up and get down on your knees to beg for mercy? You’re certainly asking for a beating! What a pain!’They couldn’t fathom how powerful Harvey could be.To them, how could Harvey be more powerful than Young Master Naiswell?Harvey said indifferently, “Kneel? If Avel kneels later, then I might consider letting him go.”Everyone was amused at his arrogance.“You want me to
Avel’s eyes twitched.He instinctively sensed fear at this very moment.The other party was the most powerful person within the Naiswells, Shane Naiswell!How could he have the right to prance around the streets without Shane and the Naiswells’ approval?Yet Harvey, who was in front of him, was talking to his grandfather with such a cold tone.He sounded like a superior scolding his employee, or a master admonishing his servant.Avel broke out into cold sweat.“CEO York, calm down! Please calm down! I’ll surely give you an explanation!”Shane was also sweating all over.He knew very well how domineering Harvey was.The former top families in Buckwood fell apart one by one after Harvey arrived in Buckwood. This alone was sufficient to show how strong Harvey was, aside from the fact that Harvey had rescued the Naiswells before.The most important reason the Naiswells were still able to do well now was because they sided with the right one.Yet now, their unscrupulous descenda
Harvey could see the resentment and anger in Avel’s eyes.He reached out to pat Avel’s face softly. He said indifferently, “You seem to be unconvinced?”“You think I’m using Shane to overpower you?”“That if it weren’t for him, I’m not qualified to challenge you at all?”Harvey had a half-smile on his face.Avel avoided Harvey’s hand and said bitterly, “CEO York, enough is enough!”Although Avel didn’t say it outright, he gave in for Shane’s sake, not because of Harvey.Harvey didn’t spare any time for nonsense. Instead, he picked up a wine bottle from the ground.Bang! Harvey hit Avel’s head with the bottle.The bottle broke into pieces, and blood smeared Avel’s face. He snorted, and staggered back a few steps.He was holding back all of his anger, and dared not vent it out.“This one is due to your disrespect to my wife.”Bang!“This one is because you cleared up the place and wanted to destroy me.”Bang!“This one is because I don’t really like you.”“I hit you three
Mandy took a deep breath and said, “Harvey, you’re safe this time. You must thank CEO Park.”Stacy, who was standing at the side, approached Harvey with a cold glare. “Trash! If it wasn’t for CEO Park who contacted Master Lee to help you out, I’m afraid you would have already been thrown into the river!”“You’ll also drag us down with you!”“You trash! It’s okay if you’re trying to be a hero, but don’t take us all with you!”“Do you think you’re that great? How dare you slap Young Master Naiswell three times in front of so many people!”“I’m telling you, you should be grateful! If it wasn’t for CEO Park’s generosity, you would have ended up badly.”Stacy, Rae, and others began to admonish Harvey.Brock folded his arms and feigned an aloof appearance, as if everyone present would be corpses if it weren’t for him.Brock? Finding someone to help them out?Harvey was taken aback. After a while, he smiled. He never thought that Brock still dared to pretend at this point.Thinking
In the end, Journi took a deep breath and buried all her helplessness and fury deeper into her heart. Then, she slowly said, "You must be joking, Ms. Isis. You are the daughter of the Sherril Corp from Country A. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn't dare to cross you. However, I simply wish for you to show some mercy…"To thank you, I'm willing to give you some of the assets in Country A I owe you for free as my gift. I believe you won't make it difficult for me, right?"Journi thought she had already lowered herself to the point that she was practically begging Isis to show her mercy. At this point, she even felt that she was giving up. She even forgot that she had Harvey pretend to be her boyfriend.Harvey was pleased, however. Instead of using an excuse like having a boyfriend, she was willing to accept other conditions in exchange for her freedom. This was a sign that she was maturing."Tsk… Assets from Country A? The few mansions you bought on the West Coast?" Isis lit a cigare
Journi ignored Drake, who was threatening her, and simply stared at Isis. "Isis, we're all part of the elite society. In this community, there are rules for everything. If I'm willing, you can do whatever you want. If I'm willing, I hope you can show me some respect so we can all preserve our dignity."Slap!Isis suddenly stood up and slapped Journi's face. "You little witch! Do you think your dignity is worth anything here? Do you think I need to preserve my dignity? Are you stupid? Not even your father has the right to speak to me like this, and you most definitely don't."The sudden slap stunned Journi. Finally, she managed to compose herself, gritted her teeth, and said, "Isis, are you trying to fight me until the end?"Isis made a hand gesture when she heard that voice. Instantly, dozens of brutal mutants came near. Each of them looked at Journi with a cold expression."Until the end, you say?" sighed Isis as she shook her head. "Unfortunately, that's not going to happen. You
Harvey's expression was becoming even colder. He had a new understanding about the "Madman", the third Young Master of Wolsing. If he was willing to humiliate a woman like that, it meant that he was not of good character."Alright, Drake. I told you not to provoke my Journi. Why are you still threatening her? Aren't you just making things hard for me?" Isis retorted, and then she looked at Journi with heartache. "I'm so sorry, Journi. He's only doing this for our future. No matter what, I owe you an apology on his behalf. Please don't keep this against him. Come, clean your face a little."And then, Isis picked up the towel she had used before and threw it in front of Journi. Journi narrowed her eyes, as if she wanted to commit. However, she managed to suppress everything in the end. She had to remind herself she had other objectives for appearing here today.Regardless, she had to see if she could succeed.Journi slowly stood up, narrowed her eyes, and looked at Isis. "Thank you."
Drake shrugged nonchalantly and said to Journi, "I don't care whether you want to kneel, but you know my nickname well."As they spoke, Drake's right finger was already starting to pull the trigger.Journi gritted her teeth, but in the end, she slowly bent the knee. Harvey was stunned as he was going to make his move. There was surprise in his eyes. All these men and women from high society had their own pride. He did not expect her to be able to be so flexible in a time like this. She deserved his praise!"Tsk. Aren't you a princess? Aren't you always prideful? Don't they call you a goddess?" Drake looked at Journi disdainfully when he saw her kneel. He patted Journi's hand with a sneer. "You've always despised me, haven't you? Why are you kneeling before me now?"If it isn't because Ms. Isis desired you, do you think I'll let you kneel here? You're just a daughter from some second-rate top family. You think you're untouchable, and you want to go against us? Do you think you're an
Hearing Drake's words, Journi coldly said, "Drake, are you stupid? Do you know who you are? Are you threatening me? Ruin my face, then. Show me if you can actually bear the consequences of your action!"Journi was quite fearless. Besides Harvey being right next to her, it was also because Journi was sure Drake would not dare to do anything to her. She was a member of the Stanton family, after all. While the Stanton family was not one of the top ten families or one of the five hidden families, they were still one of the top families.If they butted heads and went all out, it would never end well for both sides."Ha! Don't think I didn't know Emery is no longer interested in you," Drake waved his hand, and four brawny men walked out, their eyes locked on Harvey and Journi."I gave you some respect in the past because Emery wanted you, so I did it for his sake. Do you really think you mean anything? And now? Who do you think you are? So what if I tell you to kneel and call her Queen?
Just when Harvey was giving Isis a good look, Jouni could not help but yelp as if she had discovered something novel. "Drake Ward? Why is he here? Isn't he supposed to be back in the Northern Lands?"Harvey looked at Isis and instantly frowned. Then, his eyes turned to the man sitting opposite Isis. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and had a buzz cut. He was also covered in tattoos and looked very aggressive. Most importantly, he was the only man from Country H who could be on the same level as all these foreigners here.And the way he looked at Isis was one of unrestrained aggression. However, despite clearly noticing that, Isis did not say anything else. That also explained the man's high status because, typically speaking, someone like Isis would definitely kill any man who gave her those looks."Drake Ward?" Harvey was curious. "Why does this name sound so familiar?""Of course it is," Journi replied coldly. "He belonged to one of the five hidden families, the Ward family o
Since the other side wanted to drop all pretenses, he also could do it his way. They lived in an era when fighting fire with fire was the only way to go. The man's expression froze, somewhat darkened. He did not expect this man to be the current chairman of Country H Commercial Group, which meant he had bitten off more than he could ever chew. If he had known, he would not have wasted his breath.But from how calm Harvey was, he could tell that Harvey was definitely someone who would honor his threats. If Harvey really did take this to Elric, then it would simply make everyone look bad. Even if they were sure this place had nothing to do with the commercial group, who would they complain to when Harvey locked all the exits?The moment that thought crossed the man's mind, he could only say with a straightened expression, "I see that you're the chairman, Mr. Harvey. If that's the case, please come in. My master wanted to meet you for a long time."When Journi saw the man had taken a
"True, this is not our territory," the man said with a smile, "but since Mr. Stanton rented this place to us, this place is under our management for the time being. When he rented us this place, we made a promise. Other than the chairman of the Country H Commercial Group, only the guests that we designated can enter this place. "Even gods will have to follow this rule. Not only are you trying to make it hard for us, but you're also making it hard for your father. I believe you won't make it difficult for us, right?The man gave Journi a meaningful smile. A woman who came to his master after submitting herself to him didn't have anything to be proud of.Journi's expression darkened. "What if I said this man is my boyfriend?""Boyfriend?" The man smiled. "He can't enter even if he's your husband. But I know you people like to break the rules all the time. If you want to force your way through, then we'll act accordingly."The man clapped; instantly, eight powerful-built men walked
The next day, eight o'clock in the evening… Harvey got into a car, and Journi was waving at him with a smile. In the past two days, Journi didn't interrupt him and Yvonne, and simply let them clean up everything that had happened earlier.Once it was almost done, only then did Journi ask Harvey to do as he promised and pretend to be her boyfriend.According to Journi, the man from Country A who liked her was becoming worse and worse. One time, he even went to the female toilet and she almost lost her innocence. All she wanted was for Harvey to deal with this properly.Originally, Harvey didn't want to make a move. When he heard how improper the man acted, he was furious and agreed to Journi's request. However, Journi said that this couldn't be taken care of using force alone. She hoped Harvey would go and meet him and settle this peacefully. This would be good for both sides.Originally, Harvey was going to ask Tyson to immediately teach that man a lesson. But since Journi requ
