“What are you trying to say, Quinn Zimmer.” Mandy Zimmer scolded as she had just been through a rough time. Mandy glared at Quinn.“I think you know what I’m trying to say, don’t you?” Quinn replied with a smirk.“I pitied you for having such a useless husband, but who would’ve known that you’re ‘that’ kind of a woman.”“I heard that your husband hadn't even touched your hand for the past three years, I doubted it at first, but now I’m kinda convinced, since you had an affair!” Quinn ridiculed.‘Affair?’Mandy was outrageous when she heard this as she thought that Quinn was insulting her innocence.“Quinn Zimmer, did you brush your teeth this morning? Your words stink! Don’t you know defamation is a crime?” Mandy scolded angrily.“Wow someone’s not bold enough to admit what she’d done! Tell me, did you solve the issue of the commercial centre project?” Quinn talked back confidently.“Of course I did!” Mandy answered.“Oh yeah? Then tell me, how much did it cost?” Quinn asked w
“Mandy Zimmer, you better tell me everything this instant!” Senior Zimmer ordered as he slapped the table.At that moment, Mandy took a glance at Quinn Zimmer and Zack Zimmer, she was sure that something happened before she arrived, most probably Zack’s doing, or else Senior Zimmer wouldn’t have given her such a cold attitude.She was originally suspecting Harvey York instead of Zack, but judging from the situation, it seems that Zack’s most probably the one who wanted to frame her.“Grandpa, I’ve already solved the problem.” Mandy answered as she gasped for air, trying to calm herself down.“We know that you’ve solved it, what we want to know is how did you solve it!” Quinn interrupted.“You didn’t leave Covey Chad’s place last night did you? Mandy Zimmer I’ll tell you this, it’s fine that you don’t want to be with your useless husband, it’s also fine if you want to find someone else, but could you at least don’t tarnish our reputation? Couldn’t you divorce first before finding s
“Why would you say that brother Tyson? We’ve always respected you and treated you seriously.” Senior Zimmer replied as he was worried about Tyson Woods’s attitude.One wrong step that day and the Zimmers could face a bigger issue.“Respect? Do you Zimmers take framing as a sign of respect?” Tyson asked with a sneer as he snatched the gunny sack from the man’s head.As soon as Zack Zimmer saw the man’s face, Zack’s face went pale as the man was nobody else than Covey Chad, he was just unsure why Covey was in the hands of Tyson.“You asked my subs to interfere with the Yorks’ businesses? Even if you Zimmers wanted to die, I still want to be alive.” Tyson said after he gave Covey a kick.“Brother Tyson, what happened actually?” Senior Zimmer asked with a trembling voice.“Say it!” Tyson ordered Covey and gave him another kick.Since Tyson had his time with Covey last night, Covey now admits to be Tyson’s subordinate.“Boss, Senior Zimmer, I was the one who was causing trouble at t
“Zack Zimmer, how could you do something so despicable to your own family!”“How could you frame Mandy for her efforts?”“You’re a waste of trust!”“I’m very disappointed in you!”The crowd changed their standpoints as usual.“Grandpa, it has nothing to do with me, I don’t know anything!” Quinn Zimmer quickly tried to clarify as she knew that she would also get into trouble since she’s the one who started the topic.“Father, I believe Zack just had a misunderstanding, please don’t be mad at him. Luckily nothing serious happened, I’ll take care of him when we get home.” Sean Zimmer asked with a frown as he knew that he and his son would get into trouble if they really got kicked out of the family.Senior Zimmer put up a stern look as he was also unsure how he should settle the conflict.He knew that he should give Mandy a solution or else the other Zimmers would feel unjust, but he just couldn’t force himself to kick Zack out of the family because of a woman since he thinks that
Zack Zimmer was about to burst out a laugh at that moment as he thought that he would be facing serious punishments, but it seems that Senior Zimmer saved him again.Judging from the situation, Zack’s position in the Zimmers remains unshakeable.‘Mandy you b*tch, you really think that you’re capable of opposing me?’ Zack cursed Mandy Zimmer in his thoughts.“Grandpa, I’ve realized my mistakes, I’ll take some time to reflect on myself, then I’ll come back to help our family.” Zack said while purposely making a regretful look.“I’m happy that you got this mindset already, Zack.” Senior Zimmer praised.“I don’t want any information about today leaked to anyone, if I find anyone talking about this outside, I will take actions toward all of you.” Senior Zimmer threatened as he took a quick glance at the crowd.Senior Zimmer was obviously biased toward Zack, without any disguise.Mandy gasped for a breath of air, nearly crushing her teeth as she was so mad about how Senior Zimmer hand
Harvey York frowned slightly upon that statement and said, “Senior Zimmer is being too lenient. Zack Zimmer did something as serious as that, Senior Zimmer should at least demote his position in the company to be a lesson to all the other Zimmers. Isn’t it funny to just have him reflect on what he had done?”“Moreover, Senior Zimmer did not only show bias to Zack but also did not care about Mandy’s feelings…”“Look at you, analyzing all of these with that smart-as* of yours? What’s even the point?” Lilian Yates snorted in disapproval. “What did you do today? Why didn’t you go to the company with Mandy, at least to persuade them and help her! Worthless trash!”Harvey York didn’t say anything as he had gotten used to the personality of Lilian Yates, the only thing he sighed upon was the fact that Senior Zimmer planned to knock down Mandy Zimmer for sure.Harvey knew Mandy wouldn’t dare to fight the Zimmers, in that case should he be referred to as shameless or arrogant?“Okay let’s
The next morning, Harvey York who slept in the study was woken up by Mandy Zimmer. “Harvey, grandpa wants everyone there urgently and even you included!”“Okay.” Harvey nodded, he knew clearly what happened since he ordered something to be done yesterday, seeing how efficient of a worker Yvonne Xavier was, the Zimmers should be receiving York Enterprise’s summon letter by yesterday night, right?Nine in the morning, every one of the Zimmers was in the living hall of the villa, Senior Zimmer’s face was dark and solemn as he sat on the grand chair.Yesterday night York Enterprise sent a legal letter with a clear statement, the fact that the Zimmers dared to ruin the project between the Yorks and the Zimmers, simply meant that the Zimmers just wanted to get money out of the Yorks, or so it seemed to them.Now the York’s wanted the Zimmers to take responsibility for it, which meant paying the penalty of ten times the investment amount, which was five hundred fifty million dollars.And
“That’s right Mandy, none of the Zimmers managed to get a single contract with the Yorks before, you’re really the best one here, if you’re there everything would most likely be solved.”“You’re the one responsible for the commercial centre project, you won’t reject will you?”“Mandy, I think this is the best way to solve it, why don’t you drop by the York’s once again?”All their arrows were pointed right at Mandy Zimmer as they’re expecting her to solve this big issue for the Zimmers so that they wouldn’t go bankrupt.Mandy was simply speechless. She never would have thought the incident from yesterday would lead to what was happening right now.The funniest thing was that it was those people who made it clear that Zack Zimmer’s the hope for the Zimmers’ future and what now? They wanted her to solve the matter again? She didn’t know whether to cry or laugh at this anymore.“Mandy, you won’t disagree with this right? This commercial centre project is yours and because of your pr
None of the elites from Earth Hall had a problem with Wenzel's words. They all kneeled on the ground and said, "We understand the gravity of our crimes. We accept our punishment!"Meanwhile, Silvan's eye twitched as he forced a smile. "You're mistaken, Mayor! You've been away and didn't return in the past decade. You probably don't know what's happening in Grand City. Please listen to my explanation. I'm sure you'll be happy with it."Silvan was no fool. He knew very well that tonight, he might be made an example of if he wasn't careful. He had no choice but to choose to surrender so that he wouldn't be killed with one slap.Harvey said nothing but simply looked at what was happening without much interest. The others might be afraid of Wenzel, but he didn't feel anything."Grand City's current situation? Isn't it just someone wanting to hijack my authority while I'm away?" Wenzel said softly, but his words were frightening. "If I return any later, would you have a new mayor already
Rumble…The gigantic helicopter slowly landed on a platform right outside the entrance of the Foster Residence. The door slid open, and dozens of men in white robes walked out. Their faces were cold, as if they were machines or puppets. When they walked out, it was difficult to tell if they were even humans.Among the group, several men and women wearing masks could be seen among the men. While they weren't that eye-catching, they seemed to be surrounded by a formless, subtle aura of awe.Harvey gave them a look, and he could tell these men and women were extremely powerful. They were all elites at the level of True Warriors. All he could say was that Grand City was indeed very well established.A woman wearing Givenchy's exclusive collection and frameless glasses slowly walked out before standing aside, making way for a middle-aged man wearing a traditional garb. The man had a powerful figure and a handsome face. The outfit he was wearing was quite old, with a few patches here and
"Forget being on your knees and begging me, you're even threatening me," Harvey patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree. "Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?""If you do, you wouldn't be wasting your breath now!" Silvan said with a cold smile, his expression brutal. "I'm warning you… You had better return the Absolute Decree to me in one piece, then kneel and beg for forgiveness and offer Tina to me. Then, maybe things will end here. Otherwise, you're going to pay for your mistake your entire life! At that time, not only you… Even those who stand with you will have to pay a price you can't even imagine!"Silvan had been given an order to take Tina away no matter what. That was his first aim.Of course, he couldn't simply let the part where he was humiliated be. He would get his revenge one way or another.Harvey smiled. "Really, now. Since you sound so confident, just bring it on. Let's see if your face is harder, or the Absolute Decree is harder…"When Silvan s
"That's for me to know and for you to find out. If you're not going to make a choice soon, I'm going to do that for you." Harvey extended his hand and patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree.Silvan's eyes narrowed. Only at this time did he realize why Dan had forced him to make his move even if he had to spend that precious one chance. The way Harvey did things was simply too overbearing and couldn't be prepared for."Put down the Absolute Decree!""What you're doing is forbidden in Grand City!""This is outrageous!"All the Earth Hall elites yelled, furious.Alexei used this chance to get closer to Harvey and whispered, "Big bro, you should pay more respect to the Absolute Decree. If you keep this up, you might anger all Seven Predecessors if you're not careful."Silvan smiled coldly. "You hear that, Harvey? You humiliated Grand City by stealing the Absolute Decree. You're in big trouble now."Harvey smiled. "You don't have to worry whether I'm in trouble or not. You
"No one can say that I won't be the future mayor of Grand City. As long as I have the possibility of becoming the mayor, what you do know is insubordination!" Harvey sneered. "Are you brave enough to touch me?""Really now?" Silvan snapped, his face frosty. "Do you think I haven't prepared anything before coming here?"Silvan took out a badge made of a special material, flashing it in front of Harvey. "The Absolute Decree! While it can only be used once, it will allow anyone to enter any place within Grand City! I think this is the perfect place to use this. Forget about the fact that you're not even the scion of Grand City just yet. Even if you are, you need to obey the Absolute Decree!"He waved his hand and commanded, "Alright! Go and get our target!"Whoosh!Before anyone from Earth Hall could move, Harvey took a step and immediately appeared right in front of Silvan. Before Silvan could react, Harvey slapped his face. Slap!The slap was loud, and it was powerful enough t
A simple sentence seemed to contain an endless amount of murderous intention, putting all the elites from the Earth Hall on their guard. Silvan's face became terrifyingly dark."I know you're powerful, Harvey. You crushed the Origin Fist's Mark and even defeated all the Island Nation's six schools in the past. There's no mistake that you're a true warrior. But think through this clearly. There are so many of us here, can you defeat us? Even if you can, what if the three halls combined forces? What if all 100,000 of Grand City's elites attacked?"I'm advising you here right now because I have some respect for your role as the Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance. But if you still refuse to listen and want to force your way, we don't mind doing it until the end. You can try and attack any of us here. Let's see if the thousands of elites from the three halls will attack, and how many of us can you actually kill!" Silvan's handsome face turned brutal.If it was someone
However, Silvan couldn't simply leave like this or surrender. He gritted his teeth and instantly pulled out a gun from his waist. After disengaging the safety, he pointed at Harvey and said coldly, "I'm not here to waste my breath with you, Harvey. Take Tina here. I'll give you one minute. Otherwise, don't blame me for being callous! While you are indeed quite powerful, I trust that you know the people around you aren't that powerful!"36 men in black robes took a step forward. The weapons in their hands were not only aimed at Harvey, but also on Alexei and the rest.Harvey narrowed his eyes and smiled. "I do have the Tina that you're looking for, but I saved her out of the generosity of my heart as she was being pursued. However, something interesting about me is that when I save someone, I'll make sure to go all the way. Since she's now with me, I naturally need to ensure her safety."You can take her away. You can even put her in your prison. However, I need you to provide me w
Harvey played with the umbrella in his hand and said curiously, "You're with Dan?"When Silvan heard that, he said coldly, "Mr. Representative, do I need to repeat myself? I am Silvan of the Earth Hall. Now that I'm here, I am the warrant from Earth Hall as well as Grand City's law. And when I act, all will obey my orders. Even the Seven Families will cooperate with me without delay. Understand?"Harvey smiled. "And if I can't understand?"Silvan simply raised his hands.Clack! Clack!All 36 men in the black robes took out unique firearms and disengaged the safety, aiming in Harvey's direction."These weapons are specialized firearms Country A created against martial arts elites. Their bullets are created from toxins that could deal with True Warriors that Grand City has perfected. The ones with weapons are trained elites who with god-like accuracy and an iron will. If all 36 of them pull the trigger at the same time, even a living legend who has reached the level of uniting Man
Grand City looked quite mysterious under the cover of the night. The skies above were covered in dark clouds, with flashes of lightning visible occasionally—it was dazzling.Just when the butler of the Foster Residence was about to tell the staff to secure the gates for the night, sounds of car engines could be heard approaching from afar. Bright headlights swept over, and the staff instinctively narrowed their eyes. Eighteen Land Rover Defenders headed straight to the residence, surrounded by an unspeakable force. Thanks to the rain, one couldn't clearly see the figures within.However, each of the cars had red car plates, which was quite shocking to those in the know.It was Grand City's Purgatory Hall!The three halls of Grand City were the three institutions created for the city. The Heaven Hall was responsible for defense, the Earth Hall covered law enforcement, while the Purgatory Hall had dominion over execution.It could be said that among the Three Halls, while the Eart
