“The entire upper social circle here are your dogs, you say?”“How scary!”Harvey nudged at himself with his thumb.“Call one of them here, then! See if you can scare me!”“If one isn’t enough, call a few more! Get everyone that you think will scare me here!”Harvey walked forward and slapped Sharon roughly, sending her to the ground.“I deal with at least ten people like them every single month!”“Call them here right now! I’ll deal with them right now. Don’t waste my time.”“Aaaaagh!”Sharon trembled on the ground, covering her increasingly swollen face. She swore that she would kill Harvey that day, no matter what.If she didn’t, she would feel sorry for herself.Right as Harvey threw a phone for Sharon, sounds of cars revving could be heard.Many Toyota Prados appeared from afar and parked neatly in front of the garden villa.Several men in robes walked out of the cars, their faces scornful.After seeing these people, Edwin and Leslie’s expressions slightly changed.
‘His feelings?!’Morgan’s words sounded like he was questioning Harvey. In reality, he was just giving Harvey a friendly greeting.However, those simple words were enough to silence the entire garden villa.Murphy, Sharon, and the others froze instantly.Dumfounded, they took to staring numbly at Harvey. They were in utter disbelief.Even though Morgan was a discreet man, his arrogance was still very well-known.How could he be that respectful toward a mere kept man?He wouldn’t even pay his respects toward Hong Kong’s first-in-command!The Briewood Gang didn’t pique his interests, either.If Murphy and Sharon weren’t from distinguished families, they wouldn’t even have the right to meet him…Yet here he was, acting so respectfully to Harvey…. Edwin and Leslie didn’t know what was going on. They too were just as shocked.Harvey narrowed his eyes at Morgan before giving the man a calm smile.“Branch Leader Johnson. This is our first time meeting each other, right?”“That’
“Branch Leader Johnson, they also said that you’re just a dog for them,” Harvey added calmly.“They were planning to use you against me, you see.”Murphy’s eyes twitched once more. He wanted nothing more than to strangle Harvey! But at this moment, he had no other choice.“It’s a misunderstanding, Branch Leader Johnson!”“We got hasty after losing the Head Coach’s broken sword. That’s why we were spouting nonsense!”“Please don’t mind us. We…”Slap!Morgan slapped Murphy to the ground, not bothered to wait for Murphy to finish. Then, he wiped his hand with an elegant handkerchief.“Get these lawless criminals out of here. Remember to break their limbs.”Morgan couldn’t care less about Murphy’s apology.He knew that it was useless to a ruthless man like Harvey.After all, Harvey was the man that the master of Longmen looked up to. Morgan could sense that Harvey was being treated as the successor of Longmen.If that was the case, Morgan wouldn’t mind doing Harvey a few favo
Kaitlyn Parson looked resentful.Vince York had prepared a lot for this time. His purpose was straightforward: to crush Harvey York to death one time.It was said that Morgan Johnson promptly brought his men over after getting a message from Elmer Evans. Hence, Kaitlyn and Vince deliberately came over to watch the fun.However, the scene they saw was not what they had imagined.Morgan, who was always arrogant and stubborn, did not stand up for Murphy Evans, but he even respectfully invited Harvey to a meal.What the hell was going on?!“Kaitlyn, I’ve told you many times that you have to be calm whenever you encounter big problems. Why are you so anxious?”Vince seemed indifferent, as if everything was under his control.“I’ve got the news. When Master Bauer previously appeared at the Dragon Palace’s branch, he sided with Harvey, and Morgan knew about this.“Morgan is a cunning old man. He wouldn’t take sides easily.“Inviting Harvey to a meal is most likely to see how strong
Kaitlyn Parson repeatedly lamented, apparently not expecting a grassroots who had just risen recently would be fearless of death.Did he not know that even the second and third generations sometimes needed to behave in their circle?Acting arrogantly and showing no respect might have offended people that they should not and would end badly.Just as she was lamenting, her phone suddenly vibrated intensely.She glanced at it and quickly answered the call. She then showed a surprised look on her face.“That old man, Morgan Johnson, didn’t step forward to welcome Harvey York.“Instead, he finds an excuse to leave after bringing Harvey to Emerald House.“He even let Irene Johnson keep him company. He is planning to sell his granddaughter out!“Could it be that Morgan is trying to be friends with Harvey?!”Kaitlyn looked worried when she said this.If Morgan had a connection with Harvey, then Harvey’s power in Hong Kong and Las Vegas would be greater.This was certainly not a good
Although Irene Johnson was the eldest young lady of the Johnsons, she rarely came to eat at the Emerald House.Now that her group of friends were here, this hugely satisfied her ego.She also did not seek Harvey York’s opinion at this moment. Instead, she quickly picked up the tablet on the table and started ordering.After that, Irene started chatting with her group of friends.Harvey stayed quiet while looking at this scene.Even though Morgan Johnson wanted to set these two up, Harvey had no interest in such a little girl.However, he would only leave after having the meal since he had already come here.Harvey did not say anything. As for Irene, her eyes occasionally fell on Harvey, including the few besties, and they were also looking at Harvey.After all, Branch Leader Johnson set him up with Irene. Hence, there must be something special about him, right?The few guys thought Harvey was awed by the luxurious Emerald House after seeing Harvey being extremely quiet. Sudden
“Manager Anderson, what’s the matter? We’ve ordered since half an hour ago, and the appetizers haven’t even been served yet?“Are you mocking me?”Rupert Howell, who was eager to perform, stood up, showing the Omega Speedmaster on his wrist on the one hand, and swinging the BMW car keys on the other, and said condescendingly.“Dear young masters and ladies, good evening.”Mabel Anderson slightly smiled, but she did not even glance at Rupert. Instead, her eyes fell on Irene Johnson in the end after looking around the place. She smiled and said, “I’m so sorry, everyone.“I was just informed that this Heavenly Box has been booked by someone else.“Moreover, there aren’t any other rooms available at this moment. Could you please enjoy your meal in the hall?“I’ve arranged a table for you beside the restroom.“To show my sincerity, we’ll offer you a twenty percent discount for this meal.”Mabel smiled at this moment and said her purpose calmly.“Someone booked it?”Rupert was dis
Rupert Howell, who was still furious just now, suddenly became timid after hearing the two words, Kaitlyn Parson. He immediately sat down awkwardly, lowered his head, and did not even dare to speak any further.As for the other second generations, they exchanged glances with each other and did not know what to do.Kaitlyn Parson, not only was she the eldest young lady of one of the four top-class families in Hong Kong, the Parsons…It was also said that she was very close to Young Lord York of the Yorks of Hong Kong and Las Vegas, Vince York.Offending Kaitlyn was equivalent to offending Vince!The second generations there immediately chickened out after hearing Vince’s name. They did not even dare to offend him.“Ms. Johnson, now that you know Ms. Parson is coming, you should know what to do, right?”Mabel Anderson put up a meaningful smile and looked at Irene Johnson.“If there isn’t any problem, you may move to the table beside the restroom in the hall.“I’ll let someone se
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane
Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
Hale's expression was one of shock.Susan was the same.Hale didn't expect Sky Plane's plan to be so vicious. They wanted the Chapter of Ascension and to use the chance to plunge Grand City into chaos.Susan was shocked about how accurate Harvey's guesswork was. If it wasn't because she knew that someone like him would never have a connection with Sky Plane, she would even think that he might have a hand in setting up the trap that looked like it was simply a string of coincidences.Otherwise, how would he have known everything in such detail?Clarion looked at Harvey with more admiration. While he looked like just an ordinary man, whether his power or perception was far beyond them.Hale slowly closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down for a long time.Then, he turned and looked at Susan and muttered, "Now that we have reached this juncture, I don't think that there should be any more secrets between you and I. Just one question. Did everything happen exactly as Mr. Harvey
"Or maybe, in your subconscious, you do realize that something isn't right. Maybe you simply feel that it's better for her not to know about some things. That way, things will be safer for her," Harvey said with a shrug. "However, the truth is that she didn't get anything from you at all until yesterday, isn't it?"Hale nodded. "You're right. I did have some doubts about her in my mind, that's why I did tell her everything except the Chapter of Ascension."Hale seemed to reminisce about something else before giving a painful smile. "And then, as time passed by, I no longer suspected her. But I'm worried that it'll get her killed, so I chose not to say anything. I believed that as long as I said nothing, we'll be able to live a peaceful life! No one expects that in the end…"Hale signed, looking hopeless when he said that.However, Susan simply smiled icily. "Stop your crocodile tears, Hale. You never trusted me, so stop saying that you love me!"Hale smiled bitterly. He didn't w
Clarion was stunned when he saw Mrs. Hoffman was still trying to argue her way out."Even the way you argue is the same as the Origin Ninjas. Seriously?" Harvey smirked. "Right, I heard that the Origin Ninjas would leave the mark of a petal on the most private spot so that it was easier for them to identify each other. You must have seen it, right, Mr. Hoffman? Of course, I believe she'd definitely say it was just a tattoo that she had while she was in her youth."Unfortunately, I believe that Grand City has plenty of records. It should be quite easy for us to find the evidence we need. That's why, Mrs. Hoffman… Is there really a need to deny it anymore now that we've reached this point?"Mrs. Hoffman shuddered a little. She didn't expect that Harvey would be able to easily see through all her disguise. Most importantly, he even knew about the most damning evidence on her. In a situation like this, continuing with the argument really was pointless."You… You…!"At the same tim
Harvey said calmly, "You smell like one of them."Whoosh!Before Harvey could finish, Mrs. Hoffman immediately pounced at him. In midair, she waved her hand and threw a string of knives.All her blades were blue in color. They looked very pretty, but if they scratched one's skin, one could easily lose their lives if they weren't sent to the hospital immediately.Clarion was shocked when he saw what was unfolding. It was obvious he didn't expect Harvey's words to help them identify Mrs. Hoffman's real identity and forced her to attack.Still, that was quite normal. Thinking back about it, Mrs. Hoffman's calmness during this whole ordeal showed that she was not a normal woman.The power she suddenly showed was within their expectation, and they could understand it too.However, this exact revelation was making things more painful for Hale. It hurt him even more than finding out that his beloved wife sold him out. Clank! Clank! Clank!Harvey pulled up a small fruit knife and thr
