Darren Flynn quickly took out his phone and searched for a backer from Buckwood in it.Each of those staff looked at Harvey York with disdain.Although this guy did have an eye for antiques and let Flynn’s Antiques suffer a significant loss…However, what was the use of having this ability in the appraising industry?This thing was nothing in front of sheer power.They initially thought this live-in son-in-law would leave after he easily got off the hook. Nobody knew what to do with him.However, until now, he still wanted to pretend.He was genuinely ignorant and absurd, trying to get himself killed.“Just wait. I’m calling someone to come here now!”“Wait until he arrives. All of you will have to kneel on the ground for me!”Darren stared at Harvey with a vicious expression on his face and spoke between his gritted teeth.Faye Goddard was responsible for such a big incident today, but Darren’s responsibility was not trifling either.Unless Harvey could be taken down today
Although Henry Flynn was just the Director of Antique Management, he had a lot of authority. With his power, it was not difficult to destroy an antique shop or an antique player.There used to be a shop selling calligraphy and paintings. Just because the other party refused to send him gifts, he framed the other party, saying contrabands were in their calligraphy and paintings collection. Then, the shop was shut down, and the goods were detained.The owner found no avenue to redress, so he could only commit suicide by jumping into the river.However, Henry did not feel remorse at all. Instead, he forged a lot of evidence to prove that the dead owner did sell contraband.Later on, he even hid some of the calligraphy and paintings and sold them in Hong Kong, earning a lot of money in the process.Therefore, the expressions of those antique players present slightly changed, seeing the arrival of Henry Flynn, who was known as the Flayed man.“Director Flynn, you have finally come to
Faye Goddard also opened her mouth and said, “York, have you been living off women too much and treating yourself like a boss?“Do you actually think that your status as a consultant is that great?“I said a long time ago that your identity is just a paper tiger in front of the genuine big shots!”Harvey York replied indifferently, “You will soon know whether my status is useful or not.”“Pretend! Continue pretending!” Faye sneered, “A live-in son-in-law acting like a king!”Henry Flynn said fiercely, “York, it’s useless. I have the final say in this place, the antique market!“Even if you have the first-in-command, Yoel Graham, to support you, I’d still kill you!”“Yoel Graham, are you worthy?” Harvey said indifferently.It was quite a peculiar sight during those days. Even a nobody dared to name-drop the first-in-command of Buckwood.Meanwhile, several cars stopped at the gate of Flynn’s Antiques again.Then, a few people in uniform alighted from the car. The leading one wa
Henry Flynn’s face instantly darkened. Harvey York’s tone was the tone of the superiors lecturing their subordinates!What shocked them, even more, was that Michael Graham lowered his head at this moment. “CEO York, I’m sorry. I didn’t teach him well. I will surely give you an explanation regarding this matter!”After speaking, he turned around and walked toward Henry and the others.“Sir Graham, all this is a misunderstanding!“I’m sorry. I honestly didn’t know that Harvey was acquainted with you!“Please give us a chance!”Henry was used to trimming his sail to the wind. He immediately kneeled, cried while holding on to Michael’s thigh. He no longer had the pretentious aura.Michael was his superior. He could easily determine his career with just a word.It was just a matter of words to end his career.Slap!“Flayed man of Antique Management!”Slap!“You’re so awesome!”Slap!“Seizing other people’s things without any reason!”Slap!“Fining other people for 15.4 milli
Kyle Quinlan’s tone on the other side of the phone changed after hearing that Faye Goddard was hit. He then said sternly, “Who dares to do that to the representative of the Four Masters of Hong Kong?“Since the Four Masters of Hong Kong want to invest in South Light, then they are the guests of the South Light government!“Smacking them in the face is equivalent to smacking the South Light government and me in the face!“Miss Goddard, let them wait. I’ll come over there this instant!”Faye said with a smug, “Sir Quinlan, don’t worry. They can’t run away. We’re just waiting for you to come over to preside over justice!”Faye immediately hung up the phone after she spoke. She then gazed at Harvey York complacently and said, “Pretend! Pretending some more! I want to see how you will act when the second-in-command of South Light arrives here later!“The Four Masters of Hong Kong signed an investment and business engagement agreement with the South Light government when they entered t
“York, York, York, York…”Kyle Quinlan instantly stammered. He never expected that the other party was this person.Harvey York said indifferently, “Don’t call me Grandfather. I don’t have an unfilial grandson like you!”Boom!The crowd went silent!Harvey was certainly provoking Kyle!Just when everyone thought that Kyle was about to jump up and slap Harvey to death…However, Kyle’s superior aura instantly disappeared in the next moment and was replaced with an apologetic expression on his face. “CEO York, I’m sorry. I failed to distinguish between right and wrong. I will surely give you an explanation on this matter!”Kyle’s face was pale at this moment. This was because he knew full well about Harvey’s identity.Even if he was from the Quinlan family from Georgia, he could not afford to provoke the person before him, let alone him being the second-in-command of South Light.Faye Goddard and others covered their mouths tightly, worried that they would let out a scream.How
In Hong Kong, even during winter, it was still as warm as spring if compared with the ice and snow in the three northern provinces.At the top of an office building beside Victoria Harbor, a helicopter slowly descended.In the lounge below, two slender figures walked out.They walked to the edge of the helipad at will. Although there were skyscrapers at their feet, the two of them seemed to have not seen them. Instead, they wandered on the edge of the tall buildings.If there were reporters from the financial media present, they would certainly be frightened by the identity of those two people.The first one was Quinton York, who had just been promoted to one of the Four Masters of Hong Kong, representing the Leo family of Hong Kong.The other one was Matthew Flynn, who was from the Flynn family and the most arrogant and domineering of the Four Masters of Hong Kong.At this moment, Matthew bit a cigarette between his lips, and a solemn expression appeared on his chiseled face.
Just as Matthew Flynn was filled with emotions, suddenly, his mobile phone vibrated, and someone had just sent him a message.A smile appeared on the corners of his mouth after reading the message. “Interesting news.“This Prince York forced Star Chaebol of Country J to transfer all their assets in South Light to Sky Corporation.“This news has now reached the three northern provinces.“The representative of Star Chaebol in the great Country H, Peter Lee, will come to Buckwood and kill Prince York.“Star Chaebol…”Quinton’s eyes slightly flashed. He then smiled and said, “This Prince York certainly didn’t know his place. He offended Peter Lee after he offended us. He certainly wants to die!”Apparently, Quinton York and Peter had met several times.Representative Lee, who was said to have conquered the business world of the three northern provinces, was not a foolish person. Once he wanted to deal with someone, he would certainly go all out and spare no effort.“It seems that
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
With an icy demeanor, Vaida said slowly to Coco, "What if I say no?""No?" Coco looked at Vaida as if she didn't know what was good for her. "What right do you have to say no? If you know what's good for you, you'll sell me Port View Restaurant cheap right now! Once my brother takes over, this place will ultimately become mine! Stop treating yourself like you're the owner here."Even the Belladonna Cult thinks you're just a madwoman, and that they should support my brother fully. Who do you think you are now? If it weren't for your father's reputation, everything the Belladonna Cult owned would have been confiscated by the city a long time ago! You’re just a schizophrenic woman… Do you really think you're anyone important?"I'll give you three seconds to get the hell out of the Supreme Chamber! Otherwise, I'm going to teach you a lesson!""I dare you to say that again," Vaida hissed.Her eyes turned even colder."A long time ago, Dan was the one begging my father, kneeling in fr
“However, if it's discovered that you have taken even a single cent from Port View Restaurant… I'm sorry, but I’ll have no choice but to send you to jail.”Vaida extended her finger and slowly mimicked slitting her throat.Upon hearing these words, Tina began to shudder, her face as pale as a sheet.Harvey gave an approving nod. Vaida was efficient and also dealt a powerful emotional blow. She stood on moral high ground, what she did was enough to infuriate Coco. All this while, the Parkers had treated Port View Restaurant as their asset. Coco might even be one of those who embezzled funds from the restaurant. If Vaida sent Tina to prison, this would indeed be very interesting.Tina's face was pale at that moment. She instinctively looked at Coco, trembling as she begged, "Princess Coco…"It was obvious that she believed only Coco could save her now. Coco furrowed her brows, and her expression darkened. She stared coldly at Vaida."No need to audit the accounts. I can tell y
"According to the rules, this place won't have anything to do with you anymore in the future!" Coco said confidently in front of everyone, wanting to shame Vaida publicly.Vaida spat icily, "According to the agreement, only when I can't find my man of destiny within the appointed time will all the Belladonna Cult's assets go to Dan. Unfortunately for you, I have already found him. From that moment onward, everything the cult owns has nothing to do with Dan anymore. Do you understand? But of course, if you think this place doesn't belong to me…"You can call the Seven Families Joint Meeting, and we can discuss this at length. Let's see who owns the Belladonna Cult's assets."Coco's expression turned a little colder after hearing that. However, she retrained her emotions and smiled brilliantly. She knew very well according to Grand City's rules, since Vaida managed to find her man of destiny, Dan would never be able to take over the Belladonna Cult's properties.But what if her man
"Vaida, Grand City is now governed by laws. It's not right to start hitting people here, isn't it?"Just as Tina was about to crawl away, the clacking of high heels came from the entrance. A faint scent of perfume wafted through the air with a somewhat seductive tang.Harvey instinctively looked at the entrance. Elegantly dressed men and women walked in, chatting and laughing. A gorgeous woman in her twenties led the entourage.Not only were her facial features exquisite, but she also had quite a curvaceous physique. There was an air of superiority surrounding her, as if she could easily overshadow everyone else. She was wearing the most fashionable black dress, showcasing her long legs and demonstrating her perfect curves.While this woman wasn't very mature, she was full of charm and allure. To use a more modern term, she was obviously quite the player and skilled at charming men. She was none other than Coco Parker, princess of Parkerville.The moment Tina saw that woman, she
Vaida's slap was direct and ruthless, carrying an indescribable force. In one hit, Tina was instantly struck into a daze as she stumbled unsteadily. A scarlet handprint instantly appeared on her face; she looked disheveled.Tina looked at Vaida in disbelief, her voice trembling. "You hit me? Grand City is a society of law, and you hit me?" Tina couldn't understand why Vaida would hit her at this point. She was just a schizophrenic woman, and she was at the edge of losing control of Belladonna. What made her think she could still act so boldly? Who did Vaida think she was?It was obvious that deep down, Tina had no respect whatsoever for Vaida. In her mind, she could scare Vaida away by just using Coco's name. Coco was the number one princess in Grand City. Meanwhile, Vaida was just a madwoman… What right did Vaida think she had to cross Coco?Tina never expected Vaida to have no fear of Coco. Vaida even slapped her so hard that she almost dropped to the ground.Tina bit her lip
"I also think it's inappropriate to make such a request, but I have no choice. The VIP wants this private room. This is the Supreme Chamber, which represents one's status," Tina said as she narrowed her eyes at Alexei, mockery evident in her gaze."As you know, the Port View Restaurant believes that customers are gods. Now that our gods are here, of course we must accommodate their minor request. Princess Vaida, Mr. Alexei, you're both smart people. You understand that it's not easy for us, either. Can you please move quickly? We still need to clean up this room. If the VIP finds this room dirty, it might be difficult for us to handle.Tina's words right now were pure humiliation, the ones that could make men go berserk. Alexei's expression instantly turned dark.Port View Restaurant was owned by Belladonna Cult. Vaida was the scion of the Belladonna Cult. In other words, this was her turf. It was outrageous for her to be asked to leave when she was halfway through a meal, especia
