Michelle’s eyelids twitched wildly, and her face turned a little green.She deliberately ignored Harvey York’s existence. She just wanted to cut the mess quickly and take Yvonne Xavier away immediately.However, she never thought that Harvey would come forward himself.Although Harvey was the CEO of Sky Corporation, also known as Prince York of South Light…Nonetheless, he was still a joke in Michelle’s eyes.How could such a barbaric land like South Light be compared to Mordu?The Six Princes of Mordu were the true princes.Prince York of South Light was nothing.Unexpectedly, this useless prince still dared to jump out and opposed her. This made her feel that her authority was being challenged.At this moment, Michelle immediately took out a check, wrote a series of numbers, and threw it toward Harvey’s direction. She said coldly, “I don’t care if you are Yvonne’s CEO or her colleague, or her man…“In short, you don’t deserve to be in a relationship with her. You don’t even
“You!”Michelle trembled with anger. She did not expect that Harvey York would dare to insult her like this.Did this brat treat her like a fool?Ten billion?B*llshit!“Destroy him!”At this moment, Michelle’s face was cold, and she no longer wanted to say anything.“Boy, Madam is talking very nicely to you, but you don’t appreciate it. Then don’t blame me for whatever happens next!”At this moment, an old man in a suit, who had been standing behind Michelle, stepped forward and squinted at Harvey.“I’ll end you now. Don’t simply provoke other people in the next lifetime!”The old man shoved his palm in Harvey’s direction the moment after he finished speaking.Boom!His palm shot gave out a sound as powerful as thunder and storm.Yvonne Xavier unconsciously exclaimed, “Handel, no!”Michelle was quick. She grabbed her daughter and was about to watch Harvey die on the spot coldly.Boom!Harvey looked indifferent. He then stepped forward and swung a slap forward.It was
Handel shook his head when he heard the words. He also felt that he was really careless just now.He thought that the rival was just a junior, so he only used fifty percent of his strength.Now that Michelle had given him a direct order, then he must go all out.Handel sighed a little at this moment. This brat was quite handsome. However, he might be in smithereens after a while!Handel sighed and said, “Brat, you make me angry. But I’ll try my best to leave you in one piece for Miss Xavier’s sake…”His whole body radiated energy and his bones made crackling sounds like fried beans while he was speaking.Slap!Harvey did not spout any nonsense. Instead, he gave another slap with his backhand.Handel’s eyes slightly sank. His expression was solemn and he wanted to avoid Harvey’s slap.His speed was fast, but Harvey was obviously even faster than him.In the world of martial arts, nothing was indestructible, only speed was eternally victorious!Harvey’s slap was so fast to the
After hearing Handel’s words, Michelle’s eyes were twitching along with a few others who had been watching the two duke it out.‘He gave up?’‘He’s convinced?’‘This is Handel we’re talking about!’‘But this mighty man from Mordu’s Smith family was Michelle’s very own bodyguard!’‘Wasn’t he holding back for Yvonne Xavier’s sake before?’‘Why did he just admit defeat like that?’Michelle and the others knew full well of Handel’s strength.Not just the Smith family, people that were on par with Handel were rare even in Mordu.But such a big character was as swollen as a pig after getting slapped around by Harvey York and then even begged for mercy!The sight was outrageous. Everyone could not believe what they saw.Handel took a hit because he was careless that one time.After getting hit five times in a row, it was enough to prove Harvey’s terrifying strength.Upon realizing this, Michelle’s face had turned utterly horrible.She coldly glared at Handel and exclaimed with a
Michelle snickered after hearing Harvey York’s words, then coldly said, “Young man, don’t think that you can start calling yourself king because you have some capabilities. Let me tell you something, a person shouldn’t be overestimating their abilities!“When you go to Mordu or Wolsing, you’ll know how much of a joke you are then!”“Buckwood’s full of shallow bastards. Do you really think that you have an immense background just because some people call you Prince? Do you really believe that you have such authority or power?“In Wolsing, in Mordu, your background and power is just a joke!“With your arrogant behavior and the fact that you provoked the Smith family, you’ll have a hard life ahead of you.”Harvey calmly smiled without giving a straight answer.“Authority, background, connections, strength, these have nothing to do with what happened today.“But of course, if we were to compare all those, I am the highest authority there is, I have the most extraordinary background,
In the apartment.Harvey York threw Yvonne Xavier’s resignation letter that he brought out back to her and said, “I’m not keeping this. You’re still the CEO’s secretary of Sky Corporation.“Besides, I’ll get Tyson to assign men for your protection twenty-four hours a day from now on.“If it’s necessary, I’ll also get the men from Sword Camp.“No matter what, I’ll be in charge of your safety! Nobody’s allowed to force you to do anything!”Yvonne sighed secretly.She had seen Harvey’s dominant side again that day.Not only was he extremely dominant, he even utterly offended Yvonne’s mother and left such an arrogant impression of himself.If Yvonne and Harvey were to stay together, they would have to face a lot of troubles in the future.But Yvonne could not tell what Harvey was thinking anyway. She rolled her eyes and blocked the front door, then chuckled.“CEO York, I found a way to fix the problem once and for all.”“What way?”Harvey’s eyes lit up.“I’ll do everything wit
At the Gardens Residence.Simon Xavier and Lilian Yates, who had been staying here all this time, had moved out.Xynthia Zimmer, on the other hand, went back to the university.Only Mandy Zimmer remained in such a spacious house. It felt empty.Stacks of documents were piling up on the coffee table. Mandy’s frown had clouded her face after flipping through the documents.Upon closer inspection, those documents were all the contracts that were declined, along with equity transfer agreements.All this happened so suddenly that day.The Regency Enterprise’s stocks that were circulating in the market all ended up in hands of South Light’s Zimmer family.And the business partners that agreed to work with Regency Enterprise all canceled their involvement within an hour.Even if they knew that Sky Corporation was behind Regency Enterprise, they would still cancel the deals as they pleased. This was enough to prove that the opposing forces were looking for trouble.“The Zimmer family
Mandy Zimmer frowned after hearing Quinn Zimmer’s words, then coldly replied, “Matthew Flynn, Quinton York, and Peter Lee said the same thing. What happened then?”Quinn let out a puff of laughter.“Mandy, do you really think that your cheap husband is this patient and capable?“Prince Jean already did a background check on him!“Sheldon Xavier and Yoel Graham stood out for him only because of Yvonne Xavier!“Oskar Armstrong stood up for him because he owed him that one time!“As for the master of Longmen standing up for him, that was even more of a coincidence!“If we’re talking about true strength, he would’ve already been trampled to death by the four top families of Hong Kong and Star Chaebol!“He does know how to fight, but how would that be useful in today’s world?“Background, connections, power, wealth, and authority are the fundamentals of this world. You could only be a fighter at most if you know how to fight, am I wrong?“Besides, Mordu’s Jean family is one of the
Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil
Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai
Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas
"Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane
Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
