“Gasp!”Everyone inhaled a sharp breath of air.A few beautiful-looking higher ups covered their mouths, trying not to make a sound.Everyone knew why Yvonne and Ray were present.These two would never joke about something so incredible!The live-in son-in-law wearing sportswear was indeed the legendary man himself!‘Prince York?!’Brock’s expression looked a hundred times worse than it did if he was forced to swallow a bitter gourd. His face darkened. “What…”“He…he…he…”“He’s actually Prince York himself?!”Stacy and Rae’s gazes were filled with shock, as if they had been struck by lightning in bright daylight.The two of them became social butterflies in order to cling onto powerful men.Yet they missed out on Prince York, the man leagues above others, despite him standing right in front of their eyes!Stacy and Rae were close to spitting out blood.‘Just flaunt the money if you have it! Be more arrogant! Be domineering!’‘Why are you being so discreet?’“This…this
Harvey couldn’t care less about any of them. He signalled them to be quiet, and then calmly said, “Steve will be here for the transfer procedures later.”“Before that, let me say something first.”“Number one: all assets of South Light’s business department will be liquidated to charity funds under Sky Corporation’s name. From now on, the income earned with these funds will all be used for charity.”“Number two: if any of you higher ups and staff are willing to stay, I’m giving your wages a thirty percent raise.”“But I’ll be blunt. If you’re working for Sky Corporation, then you better put away the attitude that you had before. If any of you started showing off your so-called superior attitude of Country J, then I’m sorry, but you’re out of the company.”Harvey’s expression was as cold as ice. There were benefits, but there were also warnings.Initially, he planned to fire every single one of Country J citizens.But Yvonne brought up the point that since they had been in charge
“Break my legs?! You actually dare to break my legs?!”Brock stuttered, his face utterly wretched.“You bastard! I saved you last night, but you return the favor by biting me in the back?!”“Not only are you firing me, but you’re also going to break my legs too?!”“Just you wait! I won’t let you off the hook that easily!”“I have connections with the government and the gangsters alike! You’ll have a taste of your own medicine soon!”“Just you wait!”Brock shouted furiously, deluded into thinking he was superior.He was prepared to complain about the situation to Star Chaebol’s representative, Peter, and then kill Harvey completely!Just then, a few white Land Rovers were parked at the entrance of the building.When the door of the car opened, Avel Naiswell, his head covered with bandages, exited swiftly.Stacy and Rae from the crowd gasped when they saw him. “Master Naiswell?!”“Perfect timing, Master Naiswell!”Brock, who was rolling on the ground, seemed as if he saw h
After kicking Brock over to the ground, Avel rushed towards Harvey and knelt. “CEO York, I was blind to the fact that you were there last night and offended you!”“Please be the better man and forgive me!”‘Forgive?!’The crowd was dead silent.Stacy and Rae were especially in utter disbelief.Avel, a mob boss, came all the way here to beg for Harvey’s forgiveness?This was proof of how strong Harvey truly was!Avel was here to sincerely apologize as well.When he returned home last night, still stubborn and unyielding, Shane only told him a name.Prince York.Shane didn’t need to say anything else. Avel was already drenched in his own sweat the second he heard that name.Even though he was a gangster himself, he knew how powerful that man actually was.There was no need to mention anything. The knowledge that Tyson Woods, the new king of the streets, actually worked under Prince York, was enough to point out the problem.Avel did not have much interest in inheriting the f
A man wearing bright clothes jogged all the way here, with the protection of several private bodyguards.He was none other than the talented, self-proclaimed genius of Country J, Steve Lee.“Master Lee! Master Lee!”Brock, who was still on the ground, almost jumped up after seeing him.“You finally came, Master Lee!”“You must bring me justice!”“This live-in son-in-law had been causing a ruckus here since early in the morning. He said something about you transferring all the assets of South Light’s business department to him!”“You have to tell me! He’s just a liar, right?!”“ Star Chaebol is extremely powerful! We wouldn’t be scared of a Country H citizen!”“Hurry, Master Lee! Crush this live-in son-in-law! Break his legs!”Brock exclaimed furiously as he pointed at Harvey, pride coloring his face.He was still in denial regarding Harvey’s power and status.He hoped that his boss Steve Lee, a man with an extraordinary status, would trample Harvey to death.But Steve quic
Steve’s eyes twitched. His face had lost all color.But without Harvey’s orders, he would not dare say a word.After kneeling that night, he had already lost his spine. He no longer had the courage to go against Harvey.He did not even have the courage to contact Peter in the past few days. He could only prepare every procedure needed to transfer the assets as fast as he could.“Enough. If I don’t let him, he won’t speak at all.” Harvey said, smiling faintly.“In the beginning, you used the contract deal as a guise to trick my wife into drinking. You kept forcing her to drink, over and over again. Everyone knew exactly what you were doing.”“Today, you keep ridiculing me for no reason, over and over again. I wanted to just fire you to reduce our problems.”“But why are you so fond of being this irritating?”“Steve, is everyone from Country J this oblivious? Or is it because you didn’t properly teach your dog some manners?”“Having him bark at me like this annoys me greatly.”
Avel took an antique wooden box from one of his subordinates’ hands and opened it in front of Harvey. A blood red gem was inside of the box.The jewel was bright red, but there was a dark line from within the gem. It looked quite spectacular.“CEO York, this is the legendary Gem of the General. It is said that ancient generals were buried with this beautiful gem.”“I heard from the old man that you’re good at appraising antiques, so I bought this gift for you. Consider it a small token of my appreciation.”Harvey did not reach out for the gem, but stared at it for a long while.“How much did this cost you?”Avel smiled and replied, “Not much. It only costs 1.5 million. Pocket change, really.”“1.5 million?”Harvey smiled calmly.“Thank goodness I know that you’re a mob boss with no connection to the Naiswells’ actual business.”“If not, I might just choke you to death along with your entire family.”Avel was shocked.“CEO York, why would you say that?”“I bought this from
At ten o’clock in the morning, Harvey and Avel showed up at Buckwood’s Antique City.Harvey came to join in the fun and see exactly who owned Flynn’s Antiques, and how they had the courage to target him.If Flynn’s Antiques turned out to be a business owned by the Leos from Hong Kong, then Harvey would understand.He had never met anyone from the Flynn family at all, so he couldn’t understand why they would do something like this.Soon, several people gathered at the entrance of Flynn’s Antiques.The gangster standing in the lead kicked down the door. The rest of his men marched inside, all of them oozing murderous intent.The customers in the shop were scared witless. They instantly took a few steps back to give way.“Who are you people? What are you trying to do?”The clerk and the security guards present looked as though they were facing a dangerous enemy. Some guards brought out their electric batons to fend off these gangsters.Avel stormed into the shop and kicked an ant
"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
