Liam Stone waved his hands. One of his men who was carrying a steel rod behind him spoke. “Boss, there was once someone who came to our boxing gym with a streak of ten consecutive wins. He thought he had earned a huge sum of money, but he didn’t understand one basic principle. That principle was, it’s difficult to use two hands to defeat four hands. That so-called victor could not handle all of us and got beaten to a pulp. He knew then how ‘awesome’ he really was!”“You heard that? I admit, you’re pretty skilled to be able to force Dario Moore to retreat. You’re also pretty great since you could make Tyson Woods stand behind you.” Liam snickered coldly. “Problem is, you’re both on my turf now. Is this the time to act cocky?” Harvey York couldn’t be bothered to beat around the bush and asked directly, “I heard that you’re backing the Brooke family and are making life difficult for us?”Liam furrowed his brows. He chuckled, “Brother, do you need to start a big war just for the sake o
Liam Stone clapped. The TV in the match hall switched on and displayed Shane and Rosalie Naiswell, both tied firmly to their chairs. Shane’s voice was inaudible, and his head was bleeding profusely. It seemed he had been hit by the steel pipes Liam’s underlings were carrying.“Mr. Naiswell is the senior of the Naiswell family. You dare touch him?” Harvey looked at the TV in disbelief. Wasn’t Liam acting too outrageously? Didn’t he know what kind of man Shane was? If he offended Shane, the entire Naiswell family could swoop in and kill him with ease.“Why wouldn’t I? Not only am I going to kill him, I’m also going to take that woman to my bed. When I’ve had enough of her, I’ll get my men to dump her in an alley somewhere. Who’d know that I’m the culprit?” Liam laughed coldly. “I’m giving you a choice. If you want them to stay alive, surrender. If you don’t, I’ll make you watch them die. That woman is your lover, isn’t she?”Liam continued to laugh, feeling deeply confident.Harvey d
“Sir, maybe he wants to make you a live-in son-in-law too. I heard his sister-in-law is stunningly beautiful.” One of Liam’s underlings remarked, laughing. “She’s still in middle school, too!” Liam Stone’s face crumpled in mock fear. “That won’t do, will it? I’ve been a thug for so many years. If I follow this worthless piece of trash and be a live-in son-in-law like him, I’ll lose my reputation for sure!”“Boss, I heard that he even helps to prepare water for his mother-in-law to wash her feet.” Another underling said. “He hasn’t even touched his wife’s hands in the three years of his marriage!” “Tsk, tsk, tsk. How marvelous. I admit, I’m shaking in my boots!” Liam clicked his tongue in astonishment. “I want to ask you a serious question, Harvey York. Do you still call yourself a man? Why don’t you pull down your pants and check if your junior is still there? You’re trash! Is there still any meaning to your life?” Harvey was too lazy to offer any rebuttal. He jumped down from t
“E-Everything’s fine…” Rosalie Naiswell saw that the man who charged in was none other than Harvey York. Surprise and delight filled her. However, she quickly regained her composure. With red-rimmed eyes, she stammered, “I’m fine, but Grandpa, he…”Harvey fled to Shane Naiswell’s side and placed his finger under Shane’s nose. His face crumpled. “Quick, we have to bring him to a hospital. He should be able to make it…”Harvey carried Shane in his arms and dashed out. Rosalie, panicked, trailed after him from behind.“Tyson Woods. From this day on, there is no Liam Stone in Niumhi. Don’t disappoint me…”Harvey ordered before he left.Tyson’s whole body shuddered at the order. He had just made a call earlier, and he understood clearly what Harvey meant. It seemed tonight would bring a big change to the streets of Niumhi. From this day forth, Liam Stone would cease to exist.Tyson entered the VIP room, respect written all over his face. Liam Stone, initially an arrogant and dominee
A man making a huge ruckus when he should be asking the hospital for help. This was the first time everyone had seen a sight like this.At this moment, everyone looked at Harvey York like he was a madman. “What are you doing?! Guards! Call the guards, this man is causing a lot of trouble. Force him out!”The nurse was obviously afraid. But after looking closer at the shabby clothing that Harvey was wearing, she glared at him full of disdain. ‘What is a man wearing stall bought clothes even doing here? Who is he trying to scare?’“Yeah! Do you think a hospital is a place where you can just shout whenever you want?!”“We know you’re in a rush, if you’re hurrying then go register at the counter! And what’s wrong with your family anyway, only you showed up for a matter this big. Are you willing to take responsibility if anything bad were to happen?”“We save lives and help the weak, yes of course but who isn’t panicking in the emergency room? First thing comes first and payment co
Pow!In a moment, not even giving Taylor Stone the chance to spout nonsense, Harvey York furiously kicked him over to the ground. He turns around, staring at the nurse coldly.“Are you saving the person or not?”“Did you just… hit another person?”The nurse was shocked yet again.‘Does this man not know who Liam Stone is? How dare he even hit his brother like that? They’ll be wanting his head on a pike soon after.’“What’s the matter?”A gentle voice of a woman echoed here during this moment.Harvey unconsciously turned his head around looking at this enchanting woman that wore a white coat, standing there gracefully. She was not wearing any makeup, but even then she still looked heavenly.She had a real good figure too. She could not hide it despite wearing a large white coat.The woman noticeably had never witnessed such a violent scene as she was slightly astonished after seeing what had just happened. “Director Graves, you came in at just the right time. This man has be
“If you have no money to see a doctor then don’t come here to make a scene!”“Right! All you people are the same. Coming in here just to screw with Director Graves!”“Everyone knows that Director Graves has a parental heart, she will prioritize to save lives no matter what. All of you are just taking advantage of that!”“Ahhhh, it is said that Director Graves did not pay for salaries for half a year because of people like you. If you don’t have the money, why are you out here robbing ours?!”Ella Graves was about to walk into the emergency operating room when she heard about the talk that everyone was having. She looked back and smiled.“Please, stop aimlessly accusing anyone. People’s lives matter and a doctor’s duty is always to save lives and help the wounded whenever needed. And besides, I do trust this gentleman.”Despite Ella’s pure and kind-hearted nature, she still thought that Harvey York was a trustworthy man with a quick glance. This kind of trust felt like an intuitio
The vice president remained still after seeing this poor man with an Amex Black Card and the medical staff visibly confused by the sight.‘What is even happening right now?’Yulian’s look on his face changed immediately and cold sweat dripped down his face. His gaze landed on Harvey York again moments after and chuckled coldly.Yulian was a person with knowledge. There were only five Amex Black Cards in all of Niumhi. The people that own them were nothing less than prominent with servants everywhere they go and vast collections of luxurious cars.‘A poor fool like this having an Amex Black Card? Who is he trying to fool?’“You think you can deceive people with a fake Amex Black Card that you bought online?”Yulian coldly smiled as if he had seen the truth.Yulian rushed toward a nurse on the side and said, “Take this to the reception counter and see if you can actually use the card.”After the nurse had left, Yulian had ordered Taylor Stone and his men to surround Harvey York.
"In other words, you don't have to worry about this. I'll take care of it," Zayden said. "As for the Ninth Branch, that's the fruit of your labor. At least, I don't see anyone has the right to replace you as the head. Unless you have made a very serious mistake, your status as the head of the Ninth Branch is guaranteed. Remember, never say something like giving up your spot as the head ever again."Top families like the Jeans of Mordu have their own rules. There are certain positions that can't be taken just because you wanted to, and there are those that you can't leave just as easily as well."Mandy was stunned after she heard Zayden's criticism of her. Then, she nodded. "Understood. Thank you for your lesson, sir. I will do everything I can in the service of the family."Mandy wasn't that surprised to see that Zayden was willing to make a personal appearance. Since Kyros didn't show any respect to the Jeans of Mordu, Zayden needed to make a show of force once things reached thi
After about half an hour, Mandy finally saw figures appearing at the entrance. She grew a little uneasy. She put down the phone that she was using to work, and stood up."Ms. Mandy, Mr. Zayden is now ready to see you." Ms. Judd smiled and signaled Mandy to come with her. The estate might look quite small, but in actual fact, the entire land surrounding it was considered part of the estate. Without someone leading the way, no one could find their destination.Very quickly, Ms. Judd took Mandy to the Storm Pavilion in the garden. This place was quite warm, and it made Mandy feel quite relaxed. In the middle of the pavilion was a table with several plated snacks. They were all things that could be found in the countryside, like peanuts and carrots. Other than that, there was a bowl of barley.A man around fifty years of age was just getting ready to eat when he raised his head and smiled at Mandy. "Why are you here, Mandy? Aren't you supposed to be in Wolsing handling the Ninth Bra
Purdue Mountain, Mordu.A brand new Mercedes-Maybach drove into an ancient estate on the hill of the mountain. As it was close to the ocean and the temperature quickly dropped during the fall season, other than some coldness from late autumn, the estate also carried a certain frigidity.Mandy got out of the car wearing a thin jacket, looking at the ancient structures within the estate. Some of them were centuries old, and no one could tell how long they had existed. However, the buildings looked like they were newly constructed. The Jeans of Mordu would renovate and repair the buildings once every three months, as well as install the newest technology.Just that alone was evidence of how important this place was for the Jeans of Mordu. The truth was that this was the residence of the patriarch of the Jeans of Mordu, Zayden. He had been extremely discreet these past years.Normally, the patriarch of the Jeans of Mordu would stay here. All his words and actions would decide the ent
"You…" Royce gritted his teeth, wishing he could slap Harvey. However, he knew that Harvey did this intentionally to take revenge against them, giving him a so-called choice. Harvey did it to completely humiliate both him and Kyros.Harvey also wanted to use this matter to create a crack in the Wright of Wolsing and the Yates of Country A's relationship during their honeymoon period. The problem was, Royce didn't have a choice. If Harvey truly decided to do whatever he wanted, then both he and Kyros would be in deep trouble.Royce gritted his teeth for a long time before finally slowly bending his knee and said, "I'm sorry…"Harvey immediately raised his foot and kicked Royce to the floor. "I know you're not sincere in your apologies, but I'll still accept it with mercy. But remember—if you want to do something in the future, do it for me. If you do anything to the people close to me again, even your gods can't protect you."And then, Harvey grabbed Xynthia's hand and left. H
As the leader of the top ten families, the Wrights of Wolsing had their own duties and responsibilities. They needed to maintain the high and mighty image of the top families in the hearts of the commoners.Once this was fully exposed, perhaps the people from the precinct and Dragon Cell wouldn't take any action against the Wright family, but Emery might personally eliminate him in the name of justice to protect the family's reputation.Since Emery hadn't truly become the leader of the family yet, Sienna was still present to challenge him.If Harvey really decided to reveal this without a care, then Sienna would use this chance to make things worse for Emery. Especially during an inner struggle, a microscale change can sometimes cause a big enough change.Of course, the most important part of this was that Kyros worried this would really affect Emery's ascension. That was more important than Harvey's wanton actions.Even Royce's expression also became pale. It was true that he was
It was obvious Kyros had mastered the way to threaten someone using the people close to them. Or perhaps, it was easier to say that few people could escape the laws of what he had said. Few people could be an island in this world.In short, Kyros had never treated Harvey as someone he had to take seriously even in his subconscious. He was from the Wrights of Wolsing, the leading family of the top ten families.Blaine, Hector, Dan, and the other scions within their ranks might make it worth his time, but Harvey was definitely not one of them."Oh, you're offering me a lesson," Harvey chuckled as he heard his words."I'm not giving you a lesson. I'm simply telling you that there are rules in this world that you can't escape no matter what," Kyros said sincerely. "For example, it might make you feel good to hit my head until it's bleeding, but now that you've calmed down, don't you feel any regret about it? Didn't you feel lucky that I'm still alive? Otherwise, how do you think this w
"These two titles might be enough to scare countless others to submission," Kyros said with a smirk. He then lit up a long cigar and puffed out a smoke ring. "But to us Wrights of Wolsing, that's pointless…"Harvey calmly said, "So that won't work, then?"Kyros smirked. "For the time being, yes. Maybe you can show us some other things, see if they can scare me too…""I think this should be able to scare you." Harvey couldn't be bothered with continuing this conversation. He grabbed a glass ashtray and then slammed it on Kyros' head.There was a bang, and the ashtray shattered as blood sprayed.After what Harvey had done, the arrogant Kyros was instantly in a bad state. Blood was dripping from his forehead, making his face look brutal."What?!" Royce looked at Harvey in disbelief as his mouth opened wide, as if he didn't know how to react. Kyros' companions and his bodyguards were all similarly stunned. No one expected Harvey to attack when the negotiation went sideways.It wasn'
"If you ask me, I don't mind making concessions. If you can call one of the direct descendants from the Jean family to come over and offer an apology, I can consider this matter over. Otherwise, just the Jean family's reputation alone isn't enough. But even then, can the Ninth Branch ask any of them here?" Kyros' face was filled with contempt.It was true that being one of the top ten families was very impressive, but the difference in status between a direct descendent and a descendent from a branch family was quite wide. Someone from the ninth branch of the Jeans of Mordu wanted to force someone from the direct branch of the Wrights of Wolsing to back down?They must be joking.Xynthia wasn't sure what to say at this time, as she had run out of words.At this time, Harvey interjected calmly, "You know what's really going on when it comes to who's being right and wrong. Since Xynthia wants to settle this peacefully, I'm willing to take that route as well. But looking at how fo
Kyros' words carried a hint of laziness and brazenness. It was as if the entire Wolsing had already been crushed under the Wrights' heels. It was as if no one would doubt their strength.After he said that, the man called Raiden revealed a cruel smile and waved his hand. All the other men and women, clad in exotic outfits, moved out of the way, each with a gun in hand. They immediately locked down the entire restaurant. Some of them even calmly revealed their permits and showed them to everyone.In a place like Wolsing, it was almost impossible for someone to possess any firearm legitimately. That alone was enough to explain a lot of things."You're scared now, aren't you?" Royce said coldly as he dialed another number. Another group of security guards rushed in and immediately blocked all the exits. It was clear they weren't going to stop until someone was dead.This could explain a lot of things indeed.However, Harvey didn't think too much about this and simply smiled. Meanwh
