“Am I the one who ordered it?”Fabian Hamilton smiled indifferently, “It seems that you have totally misunderstood me, Paul Mendoza!“Although I have always been addressed as the King of Gambling, I had already retired when you took position ten years ago.“A retired old man like me, how could I have the right to order the people from the police station to do things?“Aren’t you thinking too highly of me?”Paul replied indifferently, “King of Gambling, we’re both intelligent people. You don’t even have to say these words.“If you still have to give an order directly for the people to do things, then you wouldn’t be the King of Gambling of a generation.“Just with one hint and one glance, it’s enough for someone else to go all out for you, even if it means risking his life.”Fabian said with a surprised look, “In this case, the ones who took action against St. Hope really have connections with the Hamiltons?”Fabian took a sip from the teacup as he said that. Then, he said earn
“Father, I don’t quite follow you.”Tyrell Hamilton slightly frowned.“We, the Hamiltons, have been setting these up for many years to get back all the six casino licenses. Now, there is a chance, but why…”Fabian Hamilton replied indifferently, “Once all the six casino licenses are gathered, our status in Hong Kong and Las Vegas will surpass even the four top families of Hong Kong. We even have the right to be on par with the Yorks of Hong Kong and Las Vegas…“Do you think the Yorks will allow a family who could compete with them to survive in both Hong Kong and Las Vegas?”Fabian held the teacup and took a sip after speaking.Tyrell was stunned, and he suddenly realized and said, “Understand, I understand. If Father wants to gather all the six casino licenses, you could have done it many years ago.“Not getting the two remaining casino licenses is nothing more just to expose our weakness to others!“But if that’s the case, why did you interfere in today’s matter and let people raid S
“In short, this matter seems to be handled impartially, but in truth, I have to deal with it this way.“This is because of the press conference that was held by the Hamiltons. I don’t even have time to reinvestigate.“There is too much pressure from the international public’s opinion!“Especially the opponents of the Yates family of America, all of them can’t wait to pounce on them. Do you know how many calls I have received from those big bosses today?“Thus, regarding the Yates family of America, they’ll have to suffer this loss even if they…“And the most troublesome thing is…”Paul sighed when he said this.“This matter is probably set up by the King of Gambling, Fabian Hamilton, but the person who bears the consequences is most probably you, CEO York.“Because in the eyes of the outsiders, we, the Mendoza family, is just a first-class family after all. We’re just doing things for others.“And also, your identity as Prince York and Branch Leader York makes it easier for you to attr
Ding!An hour later, May Lee called when Harvey York returned to the villa at Arcburn Mountain.Although they were talking through the phone, May still spoke respectfully, “CEO York, I have already looked up the person you asked me to.“Not only did she have plastic surgery, but she also spent a lot of money to whitewash her identity.“However, Country J is the territory of Star Chaebol, after all. Thus, I could still find out some clues.“I think you will be surprised when I tell you about her identity.”Harvey looked calm and said, “Who is it?”“The socialite of Hong Kong, the black widow that everyone fears, Faye Goddard, also known as Princess Goddard.”***At four o’clock in the afternoon, in the VIP Lounge at the Las Vegas International Airport.Harvey pushed open the door, feeling the coldness around him. He then walked to a seat in the corner and sat down after looking around.There was a woman with delicate makeup on the opposite sofa. She was wearing a pair of sung
Harvey York ignored Freya Goddard’s denial and continued to speak with great interest.“If I’m not mistaken, you have been working behind the scenes since you have failed your mission in Buckwood. You have undergone plastic surgery, changed your identity, and re-entered Hong Kong, all of which you need to serve one person!“This person made you his pawn, and he must have given you a lot of benefits!“For instance, 15.7 million dollars!”Harvey took out his mobile phone while talking and showed a photo. There was an account number in the photo. Freya’s expression suddenly changed.“I don’t know what you are talking about!” said Freya sternly.Harvey said with a vague smile, “I recalled what happened yesterday just before I came in.“You should have been preparing for a long time. It’s just that there is no chance to use you in Hong Kong before this.“I came to Hong Kong and Las Vegas a few days ago, and your time has come!“From the day I arrived, you have been ordered to go to
Harvey sipped his Red Tea and said slowly, “You should know that the Yates family from America are the ones who want you the most, not me.”“You don’t have to deny who you are, either. If I can find out that you’re Faye Goddard, so can they.”“That’s why, if you still won’t tell me the truth…”“Then I’m sorry, but I can only expose you to the Yates family.”“They handle things differently than I do. They’ll dig your ancestors out from the grave and turn them to ashes if they have to.”“You…!”Freya wanted to cut Harvey off, but her eyes twitched frantically at his words.Even the Black Widow herself would feel fear after hiding like a rat for half a year…After losing all her reputation, she was reduced to a weak woman with no authority.That, and she clearly understood Harvey.She caused a ruckus behind the scenes and ruined the Yates family’s reputation.The family lost St. Hope along with billions of dollars worth of cash.These crimes were enough for them to dig up Frey
Harvey stood up instinctively. Very quickly, he realized that most of the guests in the VIP room were gone.There was a gift box on the table not far away from him, but there was nobody there.Harvey’s eyes twitched. He hastily kicked the tempered glass beside his seat and screamed, “Run!”Freya was already scared witless. After hearing Harvey’s words, she hurriedly stood up and started to run away with him.Boooom!When the two were almost outside, the gift box suddenly exploded and reduced the entire room to ashes.Harvey and Freya were able to escape in time, but they were still thrown back by the blast. It was a horrifying sight.Guests screamed their heads off in the midst of the explosion, frightened.Fortunately, everyone in the VIP room was either wealthy or powerful. The perpetrator didn’t want to cross too many people, as the bomb only went off only when a few customers were left.If not, the casualties would’ve been unimaginable.Harvey instinctively pulled out his
“If you save me, I’ll tell you everything!”“I even have proof! I have voice recordings and the checks he’s given me!”“I’m telling you the truth!”The woman was so frightened, she was willing to give up everything just to survive.Compared to Matthew’s blind promise, her impending death was real.“Fine. Remember what you said. I want to see proof later. Come with me.”Harvey dragged Freya and snuck around the broken building full of abandoned luggages, heading toward the VIP room.The hall was in utter chaos. If any conflict were to happen here, innocents would be dragged to their graves.The VIP room, on the other hand, must’ve been empty since an explosion just happened there.Harvey and Freya got inside the room, which was filled with smoke. Other than a few corpses scattered about, the place was a mess. It was a horrible sight.Harvey’s expression changed for the worse after seeing the place.In one swift motion, he picked up a few knives on the ground and took Freya to
Once Harvey was at the Dragon Gate training hall, he narrowed his eyes.A huge crowd was right outside the entrance of the training hall. He counted at least a thousand of them with just a glance.They were all either martial arts elites or mutants. None of them were normal human beings.Of course, these people were mostly here to watch the show.There were also plenty of Islander men and women in their traditional summer garbs. All of them looked quite eager. Harvey could tell from first glance that they were either from Sky Plane or had the right to enter Grand City due to being at the top of the social pyramid in the Island Nation. All of them were filled with anger and resentment after Harvey chided them as weaklings. They were here to try and reclaim their dignity.When Harvey appeared, all of them instantly turned around. The anger within their eyes is apparent."Harvey York! Are you sure you want to go your own way? You're quite brave to challenge the entire Island Natio
"Dominating the Veiled Sanctuary?" Harvey asked Alexei curiously.Alexei scoffed. "Many years ago, a prodigy was born in the Veiled Sanctuary. He was said to be just a servant born into a small family. However, his powers grew exponentially after he accidentally learned martial arts."He became a King of Arms when he was 18, and then a True Warrior at 22. After that, he secretly stole the martial arts techniques from all the schools and mastered them. Finally, when he was 30 years old, he created his own martial art technique that had never appeared in the Veiled Sanctuary—the Technique of Elephants and Dragons."It's said that those trained in this technique can possess the power of ten elephants and ten dragons. They can forcefully tear apart space itself and step into the void, reaching unity between Man and Nature. Unfortunately, he has too little influence in Veiled Sanctuary. He stole too many secrets from the different schools, causing him to offend the higher-ups."In the
"Of course, only people from Grand City are supporting him. Whether it was Sky Plane, Sky Garden, Lost City, or the other locations, everyone criticized Harvey. They believed that we should have peace with all the other Sacred Lands. Harvey's existence would only cause fights between all of us."But the so-called peace from these Sacred Lands were only maintained because they were able to benefit from Grand City. Once Harvey's here and becomes mayor, the other Sacred Lands won't be able to get used to it," Geoffrey said.He was obviously quite pleased with this.For a long time, Grand City needed someone who could take control of the big picture. One of the reasons the E-A Battlefield occurred in the past was because the mayor went missing, and all the other Sacred Lands believed they could take advantage of this situation. That was why the five nations had worked together at the time.Luckily, the Chief Instructor was there at the time. He helped them defeat all their enemies and
When Harvey remembered that Vaida was schizophrenic, he suppressed the discomfort inside of him and smiled. "Ms. Vaida, why didn't you go back to rest? Isn't it boring to be at my place?"Vaida opened the door leading to the dining room. "I don't feel bored at all. I've been cooking for you the entire day. Since you're the man of my destiny, I'm simply doing what I'm supposed to, aren't I?"Cough!Harvey couldn't stop himself from coughing before saying, "Thanks, then.""That won't do, Senior Vaida! We grew up together and have known each other for almost two decades. You've never cooked for me. What's this, then? Do I really have no place in your heart?" Alexei said, almost to the point of crying and rolling on the ground.Vaida shot him a disappointed look. "Oh, you! Look at yourself. Are you acting like a man? I'm not expecting you to become an important person, but even if you're set on being someone spoiled rotten, can you at least be like a proper one? I heard that when I
With just a simple move, the Islander swordsman screamed in pain and crashed to the ground. He didn't even have the chance to spar with Harvey.An Islander wrestler immediately rushed out of the crowd. "I dare you to try me, Harvey!" Harvey calmly kicked a chair at the wrestler, who didn't even manage to enter the door before collapsing on the ground."Fool!""Die!"One by one, the Island Nation's elites attacked, but none of them could pass through the entrance into the training hall before collapsing.Harvey's technique was indeed very terrifying. What Harvey did without exerting much effort turned all the Islanders' excitement into despair. All the Islanders that had collapsed had some reputation in Grand City. But now, they were nothing before Harvey.Meanwhile, those from Country H were overjoyed. Many of them started to go around and spread the good news throughout Grand City.Harvey's reputation had spread in Grand City. A lot of people knew that the representative of
"All you Islanders are always acting so arrogantly in our territory. You'll sneer at us, calling us weaklings every now and then. Now, we simply stated the fact that you're weaklings too—and you find it hard to accept? Don't you understand that you should treat others how you like to be treated? If you're not weaklings before him, what are you then? Feces?"Hale shouted at the Islanders fearlessly, feeling refreshed as he did it. He seemed to have suffered a lot at the hands of Sky Plane, so he didn't hold back when he started his speech. It was enough to make the Islanders hear it go mad.However, Hale wasn't scared at all. Instead, he pointed at the Islanders and went on, "Yapping of sore losers."The Islander with the mustache almost went crazy. "Do you know what you're doing? You're trying to start a war! Can you bear this responsibility?"The other Islanders also joined in; all of them called for war, as if that would be enough to threaten Harvey. However, Hale didn't even b
Harvey couldn't tell what Hale was up to by borrowing his influence, but he knew very well that what he needed to do right now was to liven Grand City up. It would be best if he could cause a wave. Only then would he have the opportunity to achieve his goals.That was why he didn't stop Hale, despite not knowing what Hale was up to. Instead, Harvey let Hale do as he wanted.Hale took a deep breath. His eyes carried a meaningful gaze as he looked at Harvey, and he said with a dry smile, "What I'm going to do is to be quite intense, but I believe you can take it."Harvey chuckled. "Is it the kind that I prefer?""I don't know if you'll like it, but I believe you won't hate it," Hale said.Harvey clapped. "Sure. Let me see just how much of a ruckus your method that I won't hate will cause in Grand City!"Hale didn't waste his breath and grabbed a white piece of cloth and started painting something. Then, he immediately put it at the entrance of the training hall. As soon as the clot
There was cheer from the crowd when they saw how Harvey could easily defeat those from the Sky Plane and win back the pride of Grand City and the people from Country H.At this time, a middle-aged man, somewhat short and plump, approached Harvey with admiration on his face. "The way you fight is brilliant, friend. Most importantly, you managed to defeat the haughty Islanders without any trouble. Simply brilliant! You've won all our admiration!""That's right!" The people in the crowd all nodded, the admiration on their faces clear.It was said that amateurs watch the show for excitement, while the experts grasp the details. However, the people who formed the crowd this time were mostly martial arts elites. They understood just how powerful Harvey was from how he easily defeated Kuro, Mikan, and the other Islanders."It doesn't matter whether I earn your admiration or not," Harvey said with a faint smile as he entered the training hall. "Since you're not my training hall's student
In that instant, all the elites from Origin Fist could only gasp. They didn't know how to react when they saw what happened. Normally, once Harvey gave Kuro the chance to turn the table around, Kuro should have the advantage.But the result?Kuro was being stepped on, and he didn't even have the power to resist. Before Harvey's strength, he was just too weak."Not only can't you fight, but you're also making me very disappointed," Harvey said as he squatted and patted Kuro's face. It was a simple action, but it was enough to humiliate Kuro completely."Stop wasting time here, kid. I acknowledge that I've been careless, and I acknowledge that I'm not as skilled as you. I surrender!" The expression on Kuro's face was one of stubbornness. "If you can, kill me! I'm telling you, even if I die, the Origin Fist will never let you go! No matter who you are, you'll die in the hands of Origin Fist! If I die, your whole family will die with you!""How naïve," Harvey said with a smile. In t
