Chapter 1694

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
After seeing Kait Walker challenged Harvey York, everyone shifted their gaze toward his direction.

Steven Walker then coldly exclaimed, “Harvey, are you not interested, or do you just don’t know how to play the game? Just tell us, it’s not that embarrassing anyway!”

Bryan Holt then calmly replied, “Young Master Walker, why put him in such a hard spot? He’s just a country bumpkin. How can he possibly even know how to play Twenty-One and Pontoon?

“He might be able to play War if you ask him to, though!”

The crowd was laughing full of ridicule after hearing those words.

Twenty-One and Pontoon was just a local name for the game. In Gaule, the game was called Blackjack.

People that didn’t know the rules about the game wouldn’t even know if they won or lost, let alone play the game properly.

Under those circumstances, people should’ve just come clean if they did not know how to play the game.

Why would anyone say that they were not interested for their dignity’s sake?

    The entire crowd froze over after hearing those words, then burst out full of rage.“Harvey York, why are you trying so hard to get what you can never have?!”“Do you have a few loose screws or something?!”“You want Lady Walker to be your girlfriend? Why don’t you look yourself in the mirror before you say something like that?!”“Kait, no need to be courteous with people like this! Just feed him to the fishes already!”Bryan Holt, Steven Walker, and the others were boiling with anger. They wanted to slap Harvey to death in case he continued to overestimate his abilities.Xynthia Zimmer was shocked. What was her brother-in-law trying to do? Is he trying to cheat on her sister, Mandy Zimmer?If that were the case, how would Xynthia even tell her?Kait, on the other hand, did not get angry. Her expression was as cold as ice at that moment.“Harvey York, you seem confident.”Harvey shrugged.“It’s not confidence. I just like playing with higher stakes. Are you playing or not?

    Tamara Ebony froze over!Xynthia Zimmer froze over!Bryan Holt froze over!Steven Walker froze over!Even Kait Walker, who flipped the card over herself, could not even utter a single word!All of them were blankly staring at the table as if they could not believe that it was real.All of them shifted their gaze toward Harvey York. They could not believe that Harvey completely won a round against Kait.This was not just pure luck!If it were actually just luck, then Harvey would be the luckiest man alive!Kait took a deep breath and sized up Harvey once again in bewilderment.Right when she first met Harvey, she knew that he was no ordinary man.But she never thought that Harvey was a wolf hiding behind sheep’s clothing!Kait utterly lost. She felt unwilling and helpless at the same time.“You lost. Are you planning to admit defeat after two more losses?“Or are you going to be my woman now?”Harvey broke the silence and looked at Kait with eyes full of excitement.Star

    ‘Arrogant!’‘Shameless!’‘Crazy!’‘A small man intoxicated by his success!’‘A man that has no sense of danger!’‘What sort of identity do you even have?! What place do you think this is?! How dare you take the grand prize, Kait Walker, away?!’‘Don’t you know your limits?!’After seeing Harvey’s actions, Bryan Holt, Steven Walker, and the others were all twitching their eyes. They wanted to choke Harvey to death at that moment.Xynthia Zimmer covered her small mouth. She honestly did not know how to react.‘How could Brother-In-Law be like this?’But thinking that Harvey might have other plans, Xynthia forced her resentment down and chose not to say anything.She swore in her heart that she would not let Harvey off the hook if he were really like this!Right at this moment, both Steven and Bryan gave Tamara Ebony a look.Tamara nodded, then loudly exclaimed, “This is bad. This is terrible! The two-carat diamond that I planned to give Lady Walker is gone!”“It’s worth a f

    “I’ve contacted the others already!“They’ll send in the security to handle this soon!“I’m warning you, Harvey York! Take out whatever it is that you stole!“If not, you won’t be able to get away with this if we find out that the diamond’s on you!“According to the rules here, stealing something would have a punishment equivalent to someone cheating on gambling venues, and that is to have your hand broken!”Bryan Holt coldly chuckled.Xynthia Zimmer stood in front of Harvey and exclaimed, “Stop throwing out baseless accusations! Harvey wouldn’t steal something like this. He doesn’t even need the money!”“He doesn’t need the money? Xynthia, stop protecting him already. His whole body screams, ‘I’m in need of a lot of money’!“Hurry up and get over here before he drags you into the situation!”Tamara Ebony pulled Xynthia to the side and stopped her from standing up for Harvey.Before Xynthia could even say anything else, the entrance of the hall was kicked open. A dozen suited

    “Harvey, if you really found something…”“Just take it out.”“Miss Ebony will also thank you.”Kait Walker, who had stayed silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. Harvey was just her temporary boyfriend, but she still wanted to help him.Harvey was indifferent. “I didn’t find anything. How can I hand it over?”Kait frowned. “Harvey, you don’t understand how serious this is. ”“This place is owned by the Jean family of Mordu. I heard that the Islanders also have some shares here. If you make trouble here, it won’t end well for you.”“If you hand the diamond over right now, I’ll apologize to Miss Ebony for you and we’ll consider the problem settled. Alright?”“Apologize?” Harvey didn’t sound at all concerned. “Why should I apologize for things I didn’t do?”“Are you sure you didn’t pick up anything?” Kait’s frown deepened. It seemed Harvey didn’t appreciate her goodwill at all.Right now, he certainly wasn’t thankful for her kindness. Harvey remained uncaring, too lazy to

    Harvey’s socks and shoes were taken off. His belt was pulled away, too. Yet, they found nothing.Bryan’s expression of arrogance gradually changed into disbelief. He exclaimed grimly, “Impossible! The diamond must be with him!” Lenny frowned. He kicked the security personnel away and searched Harvey by himself.The other security personnel then went through all the nooks and crannies in the entire hall. However, they found nothing.After more than ten minutes of active searching, they became downcast and exchanged gloomy looks. Even if they found the diamond in a corner, they could still frame Harvey.But now, there was nothing. What could they do?Lenny’s eyes fell on Bryan.Noticing this, Bryan frowned and nodded.Lenny took a deep breath and called in a few more security personnel, including the female ones.“Search!”“The suspect may have hidden it in someone else’s body. Everyone has to be searched!”“If he stole the diamond, then his fingerprints must be on it!”S

    “Well, now. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation, Manager Thompson?” Harvey asked calmly.Lenny, who was about to leave, stopped and glared at Tamara, his incompetent friend. He then took a deep breath and said coldly, “What do you mean, Harvey?”“She has just admitted that she put the diamond in my pocket in an attempt to frame me.”“You should explain that to me, shouldn’t you?”Harvey continued. He wore a hollow, indifferent smile.“Did she? Did Miss Ebony just say that?” Lenny pretended to look surprised. “Did any of you hear it?”Bryan was the first to stand up and said, “No, we didn’t hear it!”“Yes, Miss Ebony is the victim! How could she put the diamond in your pocket?”“Not to mention, you don’t really have it in your pocket. How can you say that she’s accusing you?”Steven countered eloquently.Tamara took the opportunity to backpedal on her mistake and screamed angrily, “Stop getting ahead of yourself, York! It was just a slip of the tongue!”“The reason you could

    “Harvey! Enough!”Kait finally spoke.“Tonight’s my birthday dinner. I don’t want to see blood.”“Fine. For my girlfriend’s sake, I won’t kill you.” Harvey stepped forward and slapped him again, sending his cruel words back to him.After that, he looked at Lenny with an indifferent expression. “You seem to have just said that you’d give me an explanation.”“How are you going to explain now?”“I won’t give you a hard time. Just follow the rules of Paramount, as you’ve so graciously mentioned to me repeatedly.”Lenny was intimidated by Harvey’s aura. He blurted out, “According to the rules, the thief will have to cut off one finger, and those who took part in framing will receive the same punishment.”Harvey patted Lenny’s face lightly and said, “Then, follow the rules. I’m waiting for your justification.”Bryan and Tamara’s faces turned pale.Bryan covered his face and yelled, “How dare you hit me, York! Just wait, I’ll kill you!”“You’ve no idea, but my elder brother is th

    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
