“I agree!”“I agree!”As soon as Ronald finished speaking, several executives instantly stood up.Soon, one by one, representatives of shareholders also stood up to speak.In their opinion, Kait and Harvey must explain themselves.The first thing that Harvey and Kait must do was to take the blame and resign!All of them were very concerned about their gains.No matter how things unfolded today, be it right or wrong…Harvey and Kait’s actions would greatly affect their gains. This cannot be doubted.As for Harvey, the culprit who might make them lose their money… Sure enough, such a person should be driven out.“Now, now, everyone. Calm down!”Justin, who had been closing his eyes to rest all this while, rose from his seat and made a gesture.The Deputy Branch Leader of the branch of Longmen and Chairman of Walker Corporation still possessed a modicum of charisma and power.When he moved, the entire room grew quiet. Justin said indifferently, “Everyone should be clear a
Justin’s face instantly became ugly.Harvey didn’t give him a chance to continue speaking. He went on coldly, “You don’t care about Luke insulting your daughter.”“Do you want to see your daughter being ruined by an Islander? Does she have to use this way to help Walker Corporation in exchange for an irrelevant contract? Only then will you feel that she is capable?”“Then again…”“She didn’t hit anyone. I did it.”“If you want to mess around, shouldn’t you come after me?”“Going past me and offending CEO Walker.”“Deputy Branch Leader Walker, aren’t you looking down on me too much?”Harvey’s half-smile on his face caused Justin’s expression to change and change again.Several times when he confronted Harvey, he was often at a disadvantage and even suffered a huge loss.Justin’s face was extremely ugly after Harvey said those scathing remarks to him.Ronald, who was on the side, snorted coldly and butted in.“CEO York, what you said is wrong!”“Representative Luke is young
Ronald also said that as long as Kait and Harvey were driven out, there would still be a chance to get the contract at this moment.Even if everyone knew very well that since things had reached this point, acquiring the contract would be near impossible.However, there was still a small glimmer of hope.Several of the executives who initially had little to no hostility toward Kait and Harvey now looked at the two with hateful gazes.After all, everyone wanted money.Justin was delighted at this turn of events. He narrowed his eyes and motioned Ronald to sit down. Clearing his throat, he said, “Since that’s the case, everything is clear now.”“Kait, I’ll be honest. Since this is your first day after being promoted as a CEO, as your father, I should stand by your side.”“But you are too immature and too disappointing.”“You actually involved your personal feelings into such an important business. You can’t even do the most basic things and make small sacrifices for the company.”
Quiet. The entire place fell into dead silence.Everyone looked at Harvey with mystified faces. “Pff!” After a while, one of them couldn’t hold it in and let slip an amused chuckle.“CEO York, are you out of your mind? Are you trying to tell us that after you broke Luke’s hand, not only would he not hold you accountable, but he would even send the attorney contract for you to sign?”“CEO York, are you insane? Or perhaps, are you treating us as fools?”“You have to thank God if Representative Luke didn’t sue you and send you some legal letters instead. How are you still entertaining all these impossible outcomes? Are you out of your mind?”Ronald said exaggeratedly, “Everyone, I remember it now. When we were on the cruise today, CEO York did warn Representative Luke to bring the contract to Walker Corporation at two o’clock this afternoon!”“CEO York also told Representative Luke that if he couldn’t do it, then he’d have to buy himself a coffin!”“Indeed, our CEO York is truly
“This is impossible. How is this possible?!”“What’s the status of Representative Luke? Why would he kneel at the entrance of Walker Corporation?”“Harvey broke one of his arms! Him not sending us any legal letters can already be considered a blessing! You’re telling me that he’s kneeling at the entrance of our company? Are you kidding me?”“Receptionist, you’ve probably misheard. Did Representative Luke ask Harvey to go kneel at the gate of the company and apologize to him?”The executives and the shareholders had fallen silent when the receptionist ran in to break the news. A second later, they fell into an uproar and started discussing. Even Justin instantly reacted. Maybe the receptionist was too anxious, so she spoke wrongly.All eyes fell on her as they waited for her to explain.The receptionist was so anxious that she was about to cry. She stammered, “Not only Representative Luke is here, but there are also a lot of other people…”Everyone was stunned.They were screw
Harvey ignored Ronald. Instead, he shot an indifferent look at the delicate-looking woman standing in the middle. May Lee, the representative of the Star Chaebol in the Far Eastern region.“Oh! It’s you, Representative Lee. I’m sorry for not greeting you properly!”Apparently, Justin knew May Lee. He greeted her gently with a smile on his face.The core executives of the group next to him also went forward to greet her.They all recognized May Lee.The representative of the great Country H was fired last month.The one who replaced him was May Lee, the representative of the Far East region.To put it simply, May Lee’s power within Star Chaebol was even greater than Peter Lee's.Her status was also several times higher than that of Peter Lee.Such a big shot actually appeared in a small place like Walker Corporation. Even Justin felt a little flattered.His astonishment and joy aside, he was also rather uneasy by her unexpected appearance.“That’s very kind of you, Chairman
Under the horrified gazes of Ronald and the others, Luke could be seen lying on the ground, struggling. He groveled at Kait.“CEO Walker, please forgive my ignorance!”“All of the mistakes today are my fault!”“Please let me go!”Bang, bang, bang! Luke’s forehead was bruised. His handsome face was covered in blood, but he dared not wipe it.May watched his actions, unfazed. She turned to Kait and explained, “Luke is a collateral member of the Lee family. He is also my confidant.”“That’s why I allowed him to be the representative of Mordu.”“My original intention was to let him choose a good partner and maintain the good reputation and interests of the Star Chaebol.”“I never imagined that he would actually dare to mix business with pleasure and use his power to satisfy his selfish desires.”“Not only did he verbally abuse CEO Walker this morning, but he also dared to attack CEO York!”“Such a thing is absolutely forbidden within Star Chaebol.”“This happened because I’m not
Kait ignored Justin. Instead, she subconsciously looked at Harvey.Although she didn’t know what happened, she knew very well that May bringing Justin here to apologize probably had something to do with Harvey.Thus, only Harvey could decide on this matter.“Okay, stop groveling. Will you pay if the floor is destroyed?”Only after Luke groveled a hundred times did Harvey step forward. He squatted down and looked at Luke with a smile. “Do you still remember what I said to you this morning?”“What did I say?”Luke’s eyelids twitched wildly. He hurriedly said, “Come over with the attorney contract at two o’clock in the afternoon…”“What about the contract?” Harvey smiled and said.“The contract isn’t ready yet.” Luke cried, “CEO York, I was wrong! I know my mistakes now!”“Please give me a chance!”Harvey stood up and said indifferently, “I’ll give you another chance for Miss May’s sake.”“Just break the other hand of yours yourself.”“Then get as far away from us as you can.
"Not to mention, these are weapons that Grand City's top brass directly controls. If it isn't because I've taken control over Earth Hall recently, I wouldn't have been able to take these out," Clarion said with a sigh.Harvey nodded. "Looks like letting you control Earth Hall is one of my correct decisions after coming to Grand City."Then, Harvey narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. "Clarion. Take your men and attack from the outer ring. Do your best to reach the destination and save our people."Clarion blinked. "And you?"Harvey said, "Always go for the head. A truly powerful elite must be keeping an eye on everything. If we don't eliminate him, our rescue will be destined to fail."Harvey slammed his foot on the ground before jumping into the air, his figure quickly disappearing into the horizon. He noticed that there were plenty of elites converging. This was Sky Plane's territory. No matter how many he killed, his enemies would most likely swarm him.If that was the case,
While Clarion and Harvey were talking, the Origin Sword Style elites were already slowly coming closer.600 feet. 300 feet. 150 feet!As they drew closer, everyone could see their murderous expression. Their firearms already had their safety off. One could also see there were no longer any gaps in their encirclement.With how things were going, the only two options for Harvey and his men were to either get killed or to simply surrender.As they drew closer, not only was Clarion sweating, but all his bodyguards also had cold sweat on their foreheads.Only Harvey wasn't doing anything. He simply narrowed his eyes as if he was quietly calculating something. When there were only 60 feet left, he suddenly said, "You have two seconds."Harvey suddenly slammed his foot on the ground.Boom!A powerful shockwave extended outward, and all the Origin Sword Style elites surrounding them were subconsciously stunned. The shield they were holding momentarily left the ground."Warsong! Fire
At Clarion's order, all his bodyguards immediately dragged out several black suitcases. Within were black holes with blue bullets. It was obvious these bullets were created to be used on Martial Arts elites. The damage they could deal was beyond anyone's imagination.The bodyguards stood in front of Harvey and Clarion with the suitcases, ready to fight their enemies to the bitter end.When the Origin Sword Style elites saw how Harvey and the others reacted, they took out a shield and placed it in front of them. It was obvious they were prepared.Or perhaps, it was easier to say that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew what they had prepared.Clarion's expression darkened. "How did these fools manage to guess we're here with the Warsongs?"Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Is there a possibility that they didn't make a guess, but instead already received news about how many people we brought and what kind of weapons, so they could make preparations for us?"Clarion was stunned. "W
Boom! Boom! Boom!There was a string of explosions in mid-air. The bolts had also been engulfed by the explosion. Even after Harvey had managed to negate the attacks, he didn't stop. He grabbed the rocks from the ground with his hand.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Several elites hidden in the shadows instantly lost their fighting skills."He really is a True Warrior," Clarion muttered when he saw what happened. He wasn't even sure what to say.He thought he should be able to put himself to some use this time, hence why he asked to come with Harvey. He didn't expect Harvey to be so powerful that he needed others at all.Very quickly, all the attackers gathered. It was obvious they knew they couldn't do anything to Harvey anymore."These people are from the Origin Sword Style!" Clarion said seriously after he looked at what the attackers were wearing. "They're quite troublesome. While they look like they're over-the-top, they're most likely sacrificial soldiers. But the problem is t
"Of course, if we can maintain absolute discretion, we can escape without alerting anyone once we find Ms. Mandy," Clarion said, remaining positive. "That way, we don't have to fight and draw the attention of those who hold power in Sky Plane."Harvey was sitting in the van. He frowned and looked at the buildings with clear Island Nation influence. "Since Daichi is blackmailing me using Mandy, that means they're confident we won't be able to take her away. I believe we'll have to fight with those from the Origin Sword Style today."Harvey gave it a thought for a while and said, "And don't you think that the information Vaida gave us is too accurate? As if someone left behind an opening for us."Clarion's eyes widened. "Don't tell me this is a trap just for us?"Harvey shook his head. "Not only for us, but also for Grand City. If we're really stuck here… It doesn't matter if we're killed or captured alive, we'll become the excuse for them to attack Grand City. This time, we must…"
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
