Hugh and Tristan were baffled just like the rest, but once Ava spoke, they both showed expressions as though they already knew the truth.“I get it now. You looked for a friend to stage this beforehand, didn’t you?”“I have to admit, that was a really good trick!”“A shame you’re wearing stall-bought goods. You don’t look like a billionaire master at all!”“Just say that you’re Prince York if you’ve got the guts! In a place like South Light, spouting garbage like this will get you killed!”“Yeah! Take a look at yourself! You’re still going to pretend to be a master from a wealthy family and a billionaire?”“Do you know how many zeroes are in a billion?”“Master Baker and Master Tristan treated you like an idiot! Do you really think that you’re some hot shot?!”Hugh’s followers jumped up in anger, pointing at Harvey as they ridiculed him relentlessly.They were so close to being tricked by this poor fool!Harvey looked at the agitated crowd with great interest.“I won’t allo
“Great!”“You’ve got guts!”Tristan became agitated.When he used the Quinlan family’s name before, even princes and masters would need to pay him some respect.This was his first time meeting a hothead like Harvey.Tristan barked angrily, “Harvey York! Since you want to die so badly, then I’ll fulfill your wishes!”“I’ll make you regret coming to this world!”As Harvey was so disrespectful, Tristan wouldn’t mind using his connections in Buckwood to end Harvey once and for all.The few social butterflies several distances away watched Harvey with a disdainful smirk.In their eyes, a show-off like Harvey who only knew how to bluff up a storm did not even have the right to polish shoes for the masters of wealthy families such as Hugh and Tristan.‘Learning how to show-off now?’‘What is he thinking?!’‘Hugh doesn’t need to deal with Harvey himself!’‘If Tristan wanted Harvey dead, there’d be nothing left of him!’The social butterflies believed that a big show was about to
Harvey said calmly, “Since Master Baker is being so courteous, I shall have a drink as well!”“But you know, Xynthia’s allergic to alcohol. Let’s not make it hard for her.”“How about this? I’ll drink in her stead.”“I’m her brother-in-law and boyfriend, after all. It should be natural for me to drink for her!”As Harvey spoke, he raised a glass of wine and stood up.Hugh and Tristan exchanged glances, and smiled.Tristan walked up to Harvey and said, “Master York, you’re so easy-going! Looks like we’ve misjudged you before!”“Come, come, come. Let’s have a toast to show my apology. Cheers!”Tristan immediately poured Harvey another glass of wine after he finished speaking.Xynthia’s expression changed frantically. She subtly pinched Harvey’s leg to signal him not to join in.Xynthia was not stupid. She knew that Hugh and the others harbored ill-intent towards Harvey.However, Harvey didn’t react to her pinching and instead burst out laughing.“You’re a smart man, Master Tr
The more Harvey drank, the more apparent the red coloring his face. Hugh watched this sight with a cold chuckle.‘What an idiot! He’s still being so jolly even after being forced to shove this much wine down his throat.’Based on Hugh’s experience in drinking, Harvey would fall after a few more drinks.If Harvey didn’t lose half of his lifespan because of drinking too much, he would at least need to get his stomach scrubbed cleaned.Meanwhile, Tristan stared at Hugh in admiration. As expected from Master Baker, making such an effortless victory!He was right to pull this trick on an idiot like Harvey.Tristan grabbed another glass of wine and immediately went forward.Soon after, the bottles of wine were soon emptied.Xynthia dragged Harvey and exclaimed, “Brother-In-Law, no more drinking! Let’s go home, alright?”“You women don’t understand anything! Us men drinking is none of your business!”Harvey’s body was swaying, his eyes hazy. He looked as if he was about to fall
Bang!One drink later, Hugh fell flat onto the floor.The others fell almost at the same time. Only Harvey and Xynthia were left standing.Harvey casually threw away the glass of wine in his hand. His face returned to its usual expression.“Brother-In-Law, you’re fine?!”“You took a dozen of them down on your own?!”Xynthia was shocked.Harvey could only chuckle. “I’ll still be fine even after a few more rounds.”“So when you went to see a client with my sister last time, you were pretending to be drunk!”“If I wasn’t diligent enough, you might’ve had your way and slept with her!”Recalling that scene, Xynthia rolled her eyes.Harvey’s face darkened and he flicked Xynthia’s forehead.“What are you talking about?! I’m your Brother-In-Law. Isn’t it normal to sleep with your sister?!”“I won’t allow it, no matter what!”Xynthia raged, boiling in anger.“You’re such a little troublemaker.”Harvey was helpless. His sister-in-law sure was unpredictable.“Alright, go outsid
“The government said that?” Wallace narrowed his eyes.“Yes!” Peter nodded fervently.“Surely you must know who our opponent is, then?”“Of course, it’s a man named Harvey York!”“According to the Flynn family from Hong Kong, Harvey’s real identity is likely to be the top man of South Light, Prince York himself!”“He’s the one who controls Sky Corporation. He’s merged all of the assets from the Yates family and Star Chaebol in South Light!”“And now, Sky Corporation is preparing to be listed on the market!”“Curse him!”Wallace’s gaze changed and he snarled, “I thought our opponent was someone extraordinary, but he’s just a mere prince!”“Country J will surely be able to handle him!”“Since the government is willing to cover up for him, we’ll use our powers to play with him as well!”“I want you to deal with Prince York and Sky Corporation once and for all!”“I want Sky Corporation unable to be listed, and I want Prince York to go bankrupt!”“We’ll set foot on our own
As soon as Hugh was done talking, his followers behind him all stood up and glared threateningly at Mandy.Mandy’s expression changed slightly, but she had matured quite a bit after her past experiences.She regained her composure in no time and calmly replied, “I wonder what my good-for-nothing husband did to you, Master Baker?”“Good-for-nothing?”Hugh laughed.“Your husband is quite the man, why would you call him that?”“He dared to fool me, after all. Either he’s really strong, or he’s just an idiot.”“What did my husband do to you?” Mandy asked again, still calm.Tristan, who was not far away from Mandy and Hugh, subconsciously gripped his butt, his face utterly horrid and heinous.They were both well-known masters. Never had they imagined that they would suffer this great of a loss against Harvey yesterday night.Most importantly, they couldn’t even voice out the humiliation they felt! They were aggrieved!Extremely aggrieved!It would be fine if Mandy didn’t menti
Tristan and the others burst out laughing. Master Baker sure was domineering!Slap!Mandy swung her palm against Hugh’s face. “Master Baker, please have some respect!”“Respect?!”Hugh grabbed Mandy’s shoulders and flashed her a sinister grin.“I only know how to respect people in bed!”“Right, let me tell you something.”“I called my godfather this morning. He’s coincidentally here for business, so he’ll be supporting me as well.”“I know you have an extraordinary background, being supported by Prince York!”“Shame that Prince York means nothing in front of my godfather!”“If I were you, I’d be obediently following orders. I might be a bit gentle if you do, right?”Bang!Right at this moment, the door of the box was kicked open.“Hugh Baker! I’d kneel right now if I were you. If you do, you might not die!”A frigid tone echoed from the entrance of the box.Harvey was there along with Tyson. He entered the box, his expression unchanging. Not too long ago, the men that
The young man, who Linus addressed as Mr. Parker, ignored Ray and immediately set his eyes on Sia. For someone like him who came out of the mountains, fashionable young women from the mountains were women he rarely had a chance to interact with.And then, he glanced at Harvey. He did not bother hiding the disdain in his eyes. It was as if a fly had landed on his delicious cake, and he could not help but feel disgusted. When the image crossed his mind, he said, "Mr. Linus, I don't like people who interfere with our business.""I understand," Linus said coldly. "Let me deal with it."Then, Linus waved his hand, and dozens of mutants from Country A cracked their necks as they moved forward."You're thinking of dealing with who?" A calm voice came from in front of Linus. Then, he saw Harvey was already standing up, as he had already finished helping Sia regulate the energy inside of her. Then, he grabbed the ashtray nearby and hurled it."Ah!" The ashtray landed right on Linus's head,
Sia was Yvonne's younger cousin, and the two of them had met once. She even called Harvey brother-in-law. However, he did not expect the two of them to meet again in these circumstances.Harvey quickly pushed open the car door, walked out, and immediately checked Sia's pulse and asked, "Sia, what's going on here?"Sia instinctively wanted to struggle when a man touched her. However, when she saw Harvey's face clearly, she calmed down and stopped being on her guard."Why are you here?""Stop talking. Your condition right now is quite unusual. Let me give you a hand," said Harvey with a frown. While he could tell that Sia had been drugged, he did not realize it would be so powerful. The person who drugged Sia also did not think about the consequences and used about ten times more than the standard dosage.Most importantly, this was not some typical poison. It was a kind of insect poison that could awaken one's primal desire. And this situation was quite difficult to deal with. With
One moment later, Janus approached Emery with a dark expression. Meanwhile, Emery was brewing tea.Emery had just added some tea to the teapot and relaxedly filtered the first pot of water. Then, he took out his antique cup and poured himself a cup of tea.Only once he was almost done did Emery glance at Janus. "What happened?"Janus had a strange expression before he spoke sternly: "Boss, Ms. Isis of Sherril Corp had just been humiliated. Drake, who had just returned from the Northern Land, had also been wasted. They had even knelt and vowed not to harass Ms. Journi again…Emery's hand held his teacup still as he listened. A glint of strange light illuminated his eyes before he calmly said, "Don't tell me Harvey did this."Janus nodded. "I really can't figure it out until today. Just where did Harvey come from? He didn't care who he offended at all. Here, he had just killed Hector and foiled the Island Nation's plans, and the next he did was hurt Drake and humiliate Country A."
Isis took a deep breath as she gritted her teeth, "If you dare hurt Drake, both the Wards of the Northern Land and the Sherril Corp won't show you any mercy!""Oh? Then, I really want to see how you plan not to show me mercy.After he said that, Harvey placed the revolver he held on Drake's shoulder and pulled it.Bang!There was a huge sound, and Drake trembled. His shoulder had been shot, and blood instantly started to flow. If every shout before this was simply trying to scare him, then this shot was clean enough to the point of scaring them. All of them felt Harvey was a murderer.At this point, they finally understood that Harvey was not a risk-taker. He was even crazier than Drake.There was only silence at the scene. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, as everyone was still stunned. They were truly stunned by how fast Harvey did it, and the entire club's atmosphere instantly plummeted. Many were shaking and trembling.While they believed they were more importa
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
