“Young Master Feige, I’m Seth Keaton from Keaton Real Estates. I have encountered some problems today!“I provoked Young Master Aiden Bauer and his friend!“They want me to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair and make Keaton Real Estates go bankrupt!”On the other side of the phone, Timothy Feige was stunned for a moment. He then replied coldly, “Aiden Bauer?“Why did you offend that b*stard?”Apparently, Timothy despised Aiden.Aiden’s complexion also became awful after hearing this.Harvey smiled indifferently and said, “CEO Keaton, tell Young Master Feige more precisely that the person you offended isn’t Aiden, but me, Harvey.”Seth did not know where Harvey’s confidence came from, but he still unconsciously mentioned, “I mainly provoked a person named Harvey. He…”The voice on the other side of the phone fell silent for a moment.Then, Timothy continued to speak, “I’ll give you a piece of advice. If he wants to ruin you, just go and buy a wheelchair obediently.”Th
Harvey York left the Center of Mordu on his own.He didn’t care too much about how Seth Keaton ended up. He believed that Aiden Bauer would certainly handle Seth properly, knowing his style of doing things.As for Timothy Feige, he was ruined by him. If he dared to jump out at this moment, Harvey would surely destroy him in minutes.Ding…An unfamiliar call came in as Harvey was walking out of the Center of Mordu.Harvey picked up the phone and answered the call. Soon, a majestic voice came from the other side of the phone. “Harvey, I’m Justin Walker.”“Good afternoon, Deputy Branch Leader Walker. Calling me at this time, what can I do for you?“Are you planning to invite me to dinner?”Justin’s voice was cold. He then said indifferently, “Meet me at Mordu Broadway in half an hour. I’ll treat you to dinner.“I need to talk to you.”Harvey looked appreciative and said, “Deputy Branch Leader Walker, I have to admit that although you couldn’t wait to kill me, still, you have to
Justin Walker’s face turned dark. Harvey York did not show him any respect at all and kept slapping him in the face.Kait Walker looked at her father curiously. Her father had always been a proud and conceited figure. It was certainly rare for him to remain calm and not flip the table over after being mocked by Harvey at that moment.“Alright.”Harvey put down his chopsticks and poured a cup of tea.“Since Deputy Branch Leader Walker really went out of your way asking me to come, it shouldn’t be just as simple as having a meal, right?“I wonder what sort of deal are you going to make with me, Deputy Branch Leader Walker?“We’re all grown-ups here. Why don’t you just talk to me straight?”Justin was quite impressed. He then said indifferently, “Harvey, although I don’t like you, I still have to admit that you are quite a figure amongst the younger generation.“Since you are so frank, then I’ll talk with you!“Letting you come here this time, there are three things.“Firstly, t
3.2 billion dollars. That was an earth-shattering number.To put it simply, their ancestors would not be able to accumulate this amount of money even if they weren’t meant to.Although the Walker family had tens of billions worth of assets, it would still affect them badly if they had to ante up so much cash in a short period.Moreover, the position of the branch leader of Longmen wasn’t something that money could buy.However, Harvey York refused to take any money just to get justice and give Angelina John an explanation. How could anyone not be moved?It could be said that Kait Walker had never met someone so kind to her since her childhood.Even if Lucas Jean kept saying that he wanted to marry her, he never told her about finding the truth for her or giving her an explanation.At this moment, Kait unconsciously grabbed Harvey’s wrist and whispered, “Harvey, stop talking nonsense!”Connie Bree and the others all looked at Harvey. They were dumbfounded.Even if Harvey was th
“Hiding?”Harvey York smiled and remained indifferent.“For you, this thing represents peerless power. But for me, it’s nothing.“If you want, I can sell it to you.“But the price has increased now. 3.2 billion dollars!”Harvey stretched out his fingers.“The condition is still the same. Give Kait Walker’s mother an explanation, and then I shall give this thing to you!”Justin Walker was breathing quickly. He tried to grab the token several times, but he knew full well that he might not be able to snatch it due to Harvey’s skills.Once things went sour, and this thing was exposed, even if he was Justin Walker, he might not be able to keep it.Thousands of thoughts flashed through Justin’s mind at that moment.He calmly took a glass of red wine and took a sip after a while. He then looked at Harvey gently, “There is a saying in the past, a king who loves women will give up the throne. I didn’t believe it in the past.“But I believe it today!“Harvey, although I don’t know wh
After seeing Justin walk away, Connie and the others followed him out.Tears dripped down Kait’s cheeks. She never thought that her father would rather hand over 3.2 billion dollars than to give his own daughter a statement.An expression full of grief and resignation was showing on her pretty face.“I’m sorry, Kate. I wasn’t able to help.”Harvey sighed, then reached out his hand to rub Kait’s head.He too did not think that Kait’s father would rather give up the money than to give his daughter a statement.“But don’t worry. Your father thinks he can become the branch leader just by taking the badge?”“He’s being a little too naive!”“Since he’s not going to give you a statement, he’ll never have the chance to be the branch leader his entire life!”Harvey showed no emotion then. Judging by Mordu’s Longmen branch, a badge would not be able to decide anything.Only immense amounts of authority and combat power could solidify one’s position as a leader.If Justin were to fooli
“3.2 billion dollars?!”Angelina gasped.“Justin, are you mad?! Why would you use that much money for something like this?!”“That child is just a security guard, why would he have something this valuable on him?!”“Were you tricked?”Angelina's heart ached! That was 3.2 billion spent, not 32 dollars!Justin then calmly replied, “I’ve already inspected it before, this is the real thing.”“It doesn’t matter how he got it, it’s in my hands now.”“With this badge, I’ll be able to rise in ranks by the books! I’ll even be able to get there without putting up a fight!”“You don’t need to worry about the money anymore!”“Using this badge, Kaizen Group will be under our control. This is the most important thing.”Angelina sighed after hearing those words. She seemed to have calmed down.Justin was right; the badge looked simple, but the meaning behind it was immense.Other than the position as branch leader of Mordu’s Longmen branch, it represented higher power, wealth, and status
“Bastard!”“Scoundrel!”A scornful tone echoed; Angelina was unable to hold in her unbridled rage any longer.“Justin, this child was only deceiving you!”“And yet you actually gave him the money!”“Kait planned everything out!”“She’s doing this for her revenge against the Walker family; to avenge her mother!”“Justin, report this to the authorities and arrest the clown. Harvey, and Kait back here already!”“I don’t believe that we can’t deal with these two rascals!”Angelina hated Harvey to the core at this moment.Not only did he slap her across her face, he was also being so arrogant and oblivious about limits!‘People like that should be trampled to death; I’ll let him know the taste of blood!’“No! Now’s not the time to take action!”Justin’s veins were shown twitching on his forehead; his expression was utterly horrible.“I keep feeling that everything’s happening because of the position of branch leader.”“Harvey might even be a part of someone’s plan, trying to
Harvey could not stop rolling his eyes as he could feel his head throbbing again, but he still suppressed what he was feeling. "Thanks, but I don't like anything too greasy in the morning. I prefer vegetarian if possible. You can put the deep-fried hoppers aside. I'll reheat it in the afternoon."Vaida blinked her beautiful eyes. After some hesitation, she said, "I see. We'll set it aside for now, then. This is a local delicacy in Grand City. You can't even buy this with money.""Thanks; I appreciate it," replied Harvey, feeling the pressure. He had no choice but to get himself a bowl of oats with milk and slowly eat it. Harvey was worried Vaida might add something special to the oats or milk, but after eating, he realized there was nothing weird in it. It was just delicious.If food also had realms, while this was not at the level of a True Warrior, it was definitely at the level of a King of Arms. That was something that Harvey found surprising."Right, Harvey. I heard you become
"Oh, right," Geoffrey remembered something else. "While Harvey was the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance, his identity isn't accepted by the seven families of Grand City. In other words, he has no support in Grand City at all. Even if everyone recognized that he is indeed your man of destiny, it's difficult for him to become mayor. Grand City is no longer the same city as it was a decade ago."Vaida frowned and said, "Getting Harvey to garner support in Grand City is not difficult. Find a way to make him the leader of the Belladonna Cult. Before making him the mayor, we can make him the cult leader first."That way, not only can we make it easier for Harvey, but we can also disgust the hell out of Dan. He's been obsessed with taking over the cult, right? Does he really think he can become mayor after becoming the leader of two of the seven families? He's dreaming!"Geoffrey was speechless. "Things aren't as easy as you think. If you simply give the cult to Harvey
"Not to mention, during the decade that the ex-mayor had disappeared, the entire Grand City had lost their respect toward him and the Belladonna Cult. Even you have become someone who only existed in the fringe. While Grand City looks like it didn't have a singular leader, the Hierophant's prophecy was guiding everything."That’s why we must be patient. On the one hand, we needed to make Harvey accept all of this. On the other hand, we have to rebuild a solid foundation as we advance. We will make the entirety of Grand City understand that the Belladonna Cult is still the same cult that rules over all! Only then can we obtain everything he has left for us."Then, Geoffrey cleared his throat. "Even I can wait for so long. I believe you'll be fine, correct?"Vaida gave it a thought, but she still hesitated. It was good for her that someone like Harvey, who fit the prophecy, appeared. But the problem was… This was supposed to be done slowly. Trouble was brewing underneath Grand City. H
"Kill him? Why should I?' Dan pulled out a long cigar and lit it up. After a huff, he puffed out a ring of smoke. "I've just received news that Vaida has gone crazy, and she's sure that Harvey was the man of her destiny. That way, once he leaves Grand City, she would die of depression or kill herself. Looks like I can become the mayor soon. The Hierophant didn't lie to me…"-There was no difference between the day-and-night cycles within Grand City and the world outside. When the sun finally set, Grand City was lit brightly, enticing everyone to enter.Harvey, who had been trying to send a sliver of his energy into Vaida, walked out of the room. There was a hint of fatigue on his face. He thought that it would be ineffective to do that. But he did not know why, after sending in his energy, Vaida managed to recover somewhat.Other than still being somewhat unstable and sure that Harvey was her man of destiny, she was slowly regaining control. Harvey felt a bit strange, but all he c
Harvey suddenly remembered something when he saw Vaida returning to her deep sleep. "I heard that Grand City doesn't have a mayor right now. Then, what's going on with the previous mayor?"Geoffrey sighed and answered, "After the Hierophant prophesied Vaida as the third incarnation of Grand City's progenitor, he had left Grand City to find a way to deal with this. A decade… He's gone for a decade, and no one has seen him since then. That's why everyone believes he's already dead. That's why the seven families agree that Grand City has no mayor right now."Harvey frowned. "Then, what about Dan?"Then Geoffrey replied, "Dan is the mayor's final disciple. But the old mayor had only taught him for less than a year before leaving Grand City. According to the city's rules, if Vaida is killed, Dan will become the leader of the Belladonna Cult. And he will also naturally become the mayor of Grand City."Harvey nodded. He had learned some more things. Vaida was indeed part of the Belladonna
According to Geoffrey, Vaida's condition was precarious. While no one was targeting her, she might jump into the sea on her own again at some unspecified time.A condition like that was very difficult to deal with. No matter what was torturing Vaida, Harvey believed that it might not be within his power to help her."Have you realized that Vaida seemed to be opening herself up to you in the final moments? She even fell into your arms," Geoffrey remembered something else. "Do you think her condition would improve if we simply continued with this? Of course, I know you're in love with someone else, so I am not imposing on you. But can you please stay with her as much as possible while she's in Grand City? This might stabilize her emotional state."Neve also nodded continuously. She could tell that Vaida's condition was severe and complicated. If Harvey refused to help, she might attempt to jump into the ocean again as soon as she woke up.Harvey was speechless and heaved a sigh. "You
Half an hour later, in a lounge in the Foster estate.Harvey held Vaida's wrist with his right hand. After some time, he said, "Geoffrey, what's wrong with her? When I met her on the plane, while she was on the brink of going berserk, she could still control it. But now, the energy cycle within her was chaotic, and an outsider's energy couldn't easily enter."It's as if she's been losing control for many years. What's going on here? And how can you lie to her saying that I'm the man of her destiny? If I became her obsession or even her inner demon, it wouldn't do her any good to her martial arts training," Harvey said as he could not help but let out a sigh.Regardless of what happened, Vaida still fought with him on the plane. Harvey could not ignore what happened to her because of that.Geoffrey sighed. "There's something you don't know. Not only is Vaida the daughter of the previous mayor of Grand City, but the Hierophant also prophesied her to be the reincarnation of Grand City
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
