“Who are you calling your mother-in-law?”“You really have no shame!”Kait glared fiercely at Harvey. However, she had to admit that her heavy heart felt a little lighter after Harvey’s teasing. She thought about his question, and sighed. “My mother was my father’s first wife, and she was also one of the high-level members of the branch of Longmen. After she and my father got married, they showed respect and affection for one another.”“But when I was eighteen, my father suddenly brought back a woman. She was Angelina John.”“My father said that Angelina was the daughter of the John family from Golden Sands, and has a distinguished status. Her status would help him greatly in his ambition to step up as the branch leader.”“So, he hoped that my mother would step aside and file for divorce.”“But my mother is a martial arts athlete, and she was a firm woman. How could she agree? Not only did she refuse, but she also slapped Angelina in retaliation.”“Then…”“That night, several
Harvey sent a message with his phone, and then unfastened Kait’s seatbelt.Kait was confused. “Harvey, what are you doing now?”“You’re driving too slow. Let me do it.”Harvey slid over to the driver’s seat through the armrest and sat right behind Kait.Kait curled up instinctively, snuggling into Harvey’s arms.They were so close that they could smell each other. Their position was very ambiguous.Kait blushed. This was the first time she was so close to a man.Harvey ignored her. Instead, he motioned Kait to go to the passenger seat. He then fastened the seatbelt.Vroom!The Ferrari 488 adjusted to sports mode, and the engine hummed. Then, it whizzed forward frantically.The Toyota Prados following behind noticed something. At that moment, they no longer concealed their intentions and speed toward Harvey and Kait with murderous fervor.Harvey remained calm and casual. He turned on the phone navigation and glanced at the map on display. He quickly turned the steering wheel,
Harvey looked at this scene indifferently. After seeing the car being fully inundated by the sea, he started the Ferrari again and drove on the main road.It took a long time for Kait to react. “Harvey, they’ll die!”There was no rain or storm at this moment, there was a famous danger zone in front of him. Once the cars entered the sea, the chance of survival was zero.Harvey was unfazed. He said indifferently, “Kait, you’re not a three-year-old kid anymore. You should understand.”“If they stopped our car just now, the person who died will most likely be me.”“They want to kill me. Can’t I resist?”“If you think I’m ruthless, you can leave at any time.”“You can also stick with me till the end and let Justin’s dream of becoming the branch leader come to nothing. You can make Angelina and Lucas pay the price for their actions, which is also considered as getting justice for your mother.”Harvey looked indifferent.He used Kait to approach Justin. His main purpose was indeed th
Kait looked at the opened door of the No 1. Villa in front of her, surprised. “Harvey, are you really close with Master Lynch?”“A little. He gave me this villa.”“Do you have more confidence in your poor boyfriend now?”Harvey found a guest room for Kait to stay in, and proceeded to take a shower.He had been busy all day today, and was a little tired. Taking a hot bath was the best way to eliminate fatigue.While Harvey was in the shower, Kait went around the entire villa.She was surprised to find out that Harvey truly lived here. Judging from the mess in the villa, he had no intention of cherishing it. Some of the priceless decorations and furniture were damaged by him.From what it seemed, this place truly belonged to him. A mere guest would be too frightened to damage such expensive items. Ding!His phone in the living room rang. Kait answered it. “Hello, who is this?”The person on the other side of the phone was slightly taken aback, and then asked, “Who are you?”K
“I’m sorry if I interrupted anything earlier, CEO York.”Yvonne’s voice was calm, but for some reason, Harvey could sense that she was in a sour mood.‘But it’s not right. Yvonne’s my secretary. There’s nothing between us.’Harvey looked helpless. After a while, he sighed. “Yvonne, it’s not what you think. Something really happened.”“This girl is Kait Walker. She’s the daughter of the Walker family. I went out with her in the afternoon. Something happened…”“She said that she’s your girlfriend. How could it be all right?” Yvonne said with a half-smile.“I’m not very bright, but please don’t lie to me, CEO York.”Harvey sighed again. “That’s enough, Yvonne. Cut it out.”“My purpose of approaching her is mainly for the Longmen’s Mordu branch. She is Justin Walker’s daughter. I’ll start with her and see if there is a chance to resolve this matter peacefully.”“Since I used her and she got into trouble, I helped her.”Harvey told Yvonne the whole story of how he met Kait.Yvon
Winter was coming. The north wind howled throughout Mordu.In a seaside villa area, a fire was burning within an old building.“Come, come, come, Prince. You can try my newly unsealed fifty-year-old Maotai!”“We, the great Country H, have enjoyed beer and wine in the past few years. Winter is coming, and liquor can warm the body.”In the Walker Mansion, all the furniture in the previously chaotic hall had been replaced with brand new ones.One person was seated at each end of the rectangular dining table.Angelina, whose face was a little red and swollen, sat at one end. A young man in a woolen suit sat at the other end.Angelina’s temper was not as terrible as it was when she faced Harvey. At this moment, her temperament was very refined and sophisticated. She exuded the elegance tempered by all her time in the elite circles. Other than the unsealed Maotai, all kinds of exquisite food were present on the table. They were prepared by the Michelin chef.“Prince, you just got o
Lucas smiled. “Auntie, don’t worry.”“My relationship with Kait won’t change because of such a small thing.”“You have to trust me. Kait is not only your daughter, but she is also my fiancée.”“Naturally, I will treat her with great love and care.He snapped his finger lightly after speaking.A woman in a red dress, standing in the distance, came up and bowed.“Macy, give them a call.”“Tell them to bring Kait back.”Macy Howard nodded and then took a few steps back. She dialed her phone, her face blank and indifferent expression.Then, her face grew odd. She quickly dialed another number.Then a third, a fourth…Ten calls were made in succession, but they were all either shut down or the lines were busy.Macy could not remain indifferent anymore. She quickly approached Lucas and whispered in a low voice, “Prince, the call can’t get through. Something’s wrong.”Lucas looked indifferent. He saw Angelina’s puzzled eyes and said, “Locate them and let others go support them.”
Macy said solemnly, “Prince, I didn’t mean to ruin your mood.”“But I have to. This is very important!”Lucas’ voice was cold. He said slowly , “Say it!”Macy hurriedly went near his ears and quickly whispered the news to him in a low voice.Lucas’ face, which was originally calm, was replaced by unconcealed anxiety after listening to Macy’s words.“Lady Angelina, please don’t worry. I’ll let Kait come back safely before dawn.”Lucas regained his composure quickly and stood up.“I’m very happy to meet you today, but I still have some things to deal with.”“Let’s have another good meal together tomorrow.”“I’ll treat you at that time.”No matter the emergency, Lucas could always maintain his calm and sophisticated demeanor.“Okay, you should go.”Angelina’s eyes flickered slightly. She did not force Lucas to stay. Instead, she smiled and said, “Kait is very naïve. Since she’s still quite young, please bear with her.”Angelina assumed that Lucas’s men, sent to take Harvey an
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
