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
In Country J, on the peak of an unknown mountain.A gray-haired old man was standing on the edge of the cliff with his hands on his back.He was very calm and relaxed at this moment, and he gave out a demeanor of a transcendent being.This old man seemed to have some sort of magic power. The clouds around slowly lingered, surrounding him as if they were surging with his breathing.This was the so-called “The way follows nature” scene.Meanwhile, there was a rush of footsteps behind him, and then a man wearing a Taekwondo robe came dashing with a panic expression. He said, “Sir, something happened!“Your close disciple, Steve Lee, was tortured and killed in the great Country H!”“Um?!”The old man waved his hand violently, and the clouds and mist around him exploded suddenly like an invisible air bomb dispersing behind him.All the birds around were shaken and had fallen to the ground at this moment, and countless leaves were flying.Everyone present was stunned!Wallace Park
News of Wallace Park moving out of seclusion from the mountain and agreeing to head toward Country H was covered up by Star Chaebol.This was not because of Star Chaebol being discreet. Wallace requested this himself.Only people that participated in the Euro-American Battlefield could understand what kind of place Country H was!For those people, if the legendary man were still alive in Country H, then that place would be a forbidden area for all soldiers.Whoever dared to invade would mean the death of them!Even if Wallace was the Chief Instructor of Country J for about a decade, he still had unspeakable fear toward that man.After all, he couldn’t even last for ten moves against him back then!Not just Wallace, even the five strongest countries banded together were utterly destroyed by that man alone!That was why Wallace wouldn’t dare to let anyone outside know that he was heading to Country H.If news were to spread to the Chief Instructor, big trouble would ensue.When
“Hmm. Send all three of the relics over, especially the commander’s seal. I must have it.”Wallace Park was exhilarated.“After this, I shall be your supporter, Peter Lee. I will deal with every obstacle and trouble that you face in Country H.”“Understood! Rest assured, I’ll be able to handle this easily!”Peter was waiting to hear those exact words.With Wallace’s support, he could do whatever he wanted.Even avenging his own son would be an easy task.“The Flynn family’s auction in Buckwood…”A cold smile leaked out of Peter’s face. A man with a reputation like his was not able to leave the provinces to the south nonchalantly. He was just involved with too many things. Any simple movement would cause a major uproar.But Wallace even brought with him his very own disciple, Roy Garfield, to help Peter this time.Peter then immediately assigned Roy to be Star Chaebol’s deputy representative in Country H.***At Buckwood.Avel Naiswell respectfully stood in front of Harvey
“Looks like there’s a huge auction about to be held here. Someone even sent me an invitation. Are you buying something?”Mandy Zimmer knew that Harvey York had a knack for appraising antiques. So, she asked out of curiosity.“I’m just here to take a look, expanding my horizons, if you will,” Harvey vaguely answered.If the legendary Master Flynn from Flynn’s Antiques were actually to sell the national treasures to foreign people, Harvey wouldn’t mind giving him an unforgettable lesson.Inside the auction house.Darren Flynn was holding his phone while standing respectfully.An icy cold voice echoed from the other side of the phone.“Representative Lee from Star Chaebol called me last night. He said that he had his eyes on three items that are up for auction.“As a meeting gift, I’ll want these three items sent to Star Chaebol. Have them prepared.”Cold sweats were dripping down Darren’s face when he replied, “Rest assured, Master Flynn, I’ll be able to handle such a trivial ta
Darren Flynn stood up at this moment and clapped his hands.“Everyone, please quiet down and listen!“The auction that Flynn’s Antiques had organized only has three rare treasures up for bidding. The items are as follows: one of Jasper Higgins’ authentic works, a porcelain bowl, and a piece of the commander’s seal!“Master Flynn said that these three antiques are the treasures of the shop. It would be meaningless if they were separated!“What if we auction all three of these items together for tonight?!”Darren spoke with a righteous tone as if it was the right thing to do.To put it bluntly, he was plotting to let all of those items fall into Roy’s hands successfully.“This…”Many people were dumbfounded after hearing his words. But soon, the people that Darren arranged immediately stood up.“Flynn’s Antiques is hosting today’s auction. It would be natural for you to make the call!”“I’ve heard of these three antiques before. They are the treasures of Flynn’s Antiques. It wo
Facing Star Chaebol?That would be an act of suicide!Looking at most of the people already exclaiming their bids, Roy Garfield then calmly raised his sign and said, “Star Chaebol from Country J will be bidding one hundred and seventy million dollars!”The crowd slightly froze after hearing Roy’s words.Even though Star Chaebol failed miserably in South Light before, not many people knew about this. Only people in Buckwood’s social circle knew.Besides, no one would dare to spread the news because of how powerful Star Chaebol was.That was why the news was still covered up.When the people heard the powerful Star Chaebol’s bid, there were no competitors amongst the crowd at all.And the people that were here to fill up space all cleanly left. Their goal was completed!All the representatives in the crowd were looking at Roy full of admiration.“I recognize him. He’s the newly appointed deputy representative from Star Chaebol in Country H’s branch, Roy Garfield!”“It’s said t
Gasp!The whole crowd gasped. All of them were looking at Harvey York with unbelievable looks on their faces.This was crazy!Someone actually dared to face Star Chaebol on an occasion like this?This was not as simple as fighting for a property.Harvey was fighting to the death with Star Chaebol!This man was mad!“You lunatic! You’re looking for your death!”Roy Garfield was boiling with anger.He was a big character with words that carried enormous weight. Nobody would dare even to oppose him. This had cultivated the arrogance within him.But on a small auction house that day, somebody actually dared to challenge him over and over again repeatedly.Roy had the urge to choke Harvey to death at this moment.And according to the budget, one hundred and seventy million dollars should be enough to auction off all three rare treasures. But because of this man that came out of nowhere, Roy had to fork out more than twice the amount!Even though it wasn’t Roy’s money, the probl
Isis's expression instantly darkened. Harvey's earlier decisiveness had already made her understand that Harvey would pull the trigger."Bend the knee, apologize, and make your vow," Harvey ordered calmly. "I'm growing impatient. Three, two, one…"Without giving Drake a chance to speak, Harvey pulled the trigger again.Clack!The fourth time. It was still a dry fire.Isis's mind was completely blank, and she was blinded momentarily. While she always looked like someone high-and-mighty, she felt like she was nothing in front of everything Harvey had been doing. She thought that she could easily lose her life.Drake was so scared that he was shuddering.While it was still a dry fire, the next time he pulled the trigger, there was a 50% chance of it being a bullet. No matter who Harvey pointed the gun at, that person would have a 50% chance of going to hell."My, they always said that those who are kind live short lives while those who are problematic live a very long life. I didn
"You're threatening me?" Harvey patted Drake's cheek. "I know you must be very haughty, but the problem is that you're right in my hands tonight. Do you think threatening me like that is going to help you? Do you actually think I wouldn't dare to pull that trigger after you threatened me?"I've killed people like you for a dime a dozen. Nothing happened to me anyway. Why am I still standing perfectly fine here? At the root of it, it's because people like you are useless!"Harvey continued in high spirits, "Hey, Drake. Do you want to make a bet? Let's bet that no matter how headstrong you are, you're going to kneel on the ground and beg me to spare your life."Drake coldly replied, "And what's the wager? Your life?"Harvey blurted out a laugh. "No, you're not nearly valuable enough to make me wager my life. But, if you don't beg me until the very end, I can agree to any of your conditions.""Fine. At the time, I'll make you kill yourself!" Drake said as he gritted his teeth. "We'll
"You're that lucky?" Harvey said, his shock palpable on his face. "Alright, one more time."This time, Drake raised his left hand to block the gun's muzzle using all his strength. He believed that if this continued, even if he would not die from a bullet, he would die from the fear alone. "You're scared?" Harvey looked at Drake curiously. "Aren't you the Madman? Aren't you the third in Wolsing out of all the Young Masters? Why are you so afraid of dying? You're so arrogant while harassing my girlfriend. Why are you such a piece of trash now, huh?" Harvey patted Drake's face disdainfully.In that instant, there was only silence. No one expected this man who called himself Journi's boyfriend to be so big-headed. Not only did he dare to threaten Drake, he really wanted to kill Drake. Was he not afraid the Wards of the Northern Land would show him no mercy?But of course, to someone like Journi, while she was surprised, she was mainly touched. She was certain someone like Harvey would
And then, Harvey waved his left hand. The moment when Drake was stunned, the revolver then dropped into Harvey's hand.Once Harvey had obtained the revolver, he spun the cylinder, unlocked the safety, and pointed the revolver around. All the people who were so smug earlier started to scream and tried to find places to hide after being shocked.Harvey's play with the revolver made it obvious that he would discharge it accidentally.Even Isis, who had always been so high-and-mighty, had her expression darkened for a while and hid behind a marble column subconsciously. He who has nothing to lose has nothing to fear. Harvey looked like he had nothing to lose at all.That was why the foreigners all believed that if they were killed by Harvey, even if Harvey was willing to die for his mistake, it was still something they could not accept. After forcing the group away, Harvey then pointed the revolver at Drake's head.Drake's eyes turned cold. "Who are you, kid? Do you think this is som
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?
