“I can’t believe it. Am I dreaming? Is that Doctor Graves in casual clothes?”“Did you see that too? I thought that there’s something wrong with my eyes.”“Is Ella Graves out of her mind? She refuses to sit in so many sports cars and now she’s sitting in the passenger seat of an electric bike? It’s a shared one at that! Those that only cost two dollars an hour!”“It’s like what they used to say. One would rather sit in an electric bike and be happy rather than sit in a luxury car and cry…”“If only we knew that Doctor Graves liked eunuchs like him, we would not have bought cars in the first place…”From that day on, the male staff of the hospital had all changed to use electric bikes and stopped driving to work. The initial problem of lack of parking spaces in the hospital car park was inevitably solved. It was an unexpected turn of events.***While on the road, Harvey York had a lack of self-awareness. When Ella said that she wanted to eat the most famous Western cuisine in Ni
No one thought that they would be having a feast for their eyes with such a small car accident. The most important point was that each woman had their own flair. If they could spend a night with either of them, they would be willing to have some years cut off their lives.One had a first love face. Seeing her reminded them of their younger days when they had their innocent crushes. The other was an elegant beauty. One could be drawn into a dream at any time when looking at her.While everyone was daydreaming, Harvey York was stunned and subconsciously said, “Shirley Ryan?”Harvey knew the beauty from the MPV. She was Harvey’s desk mate in university. She had spoken up for him during their university reunion. It was quite a coincidence to meet her at this place.“Harvey?” Shirley was also astonished.The other university mates insulted Harvey during the reunion and called him a loser. He had become a live-in son-in-law and reeked of poverty. He was a complete worthless piece of tra
Harvey York smiled. “Shirley Ryan, why are you behaving like when you’re back in university? Randomly lecturing me on life lessons?”“Stop joking around! Our university mates had strong opinions about you in our last reunion. Why don’t you find a decent job instead of loitering around the whole day?” Shirley was worried and nervous for him. “Do you think that you’re happy now? You’re willing to be a hustler for the sake of earning a few bucks. Why don’t you find a better job like in security to have some peace of mind?”Shirley treated Harvey exceptionally well. She was still concerned for Harvey although he was at this dejected state.Harvey reacted the same way he usually did in the past. He stretched out his hand and held Shirley’s face in his hand. “Honestly, I do regret not listening to you all those years. I haven’t learned my lesson. However, I’m quite well now.”Although he was a live-in son-in-law for three years, he did not toss this identity away. He had become the CEO o
Harvey York smiled indifferently and ignored Jerry Zabel who was jumping up and down ready to spar. Instead, he was just about to leave the scene.Jerry stepped forward and blocked Harvey’s path after seeing his movements. He snorted, “Quickly come and pay for the damages! Otherwise, I will call and file a complaint against you right away!”Shirley Ryan, who was standing behind him, softened her heart and said. “Harvey, if you really can’t get the money, I can lend it to you.”Her heart was a little softened seeing that Harvey was so motivated. She did not want Harvey to lose his job because of such a trivial thing.Ella Graves, who had been silent for a long time, could already understand that the man and woman in front of her were Harvey’s former senior and his desk mate.However, how could they be so unreasonable? Just because they were his seniors?At this moment, she could not stand it anymore, and could not help but say, “Why are you so unreasonable? You ran into us, so why
After seeing Jerry Zabel’s membership card, the assistant manager immediately bowed to him respectfully. This was Niumhi Grand Hotel’s rule, which was ‘customers always come first’.After that, she looked at Harvey York coldly and said, “Gentleman, if you aren’t a member of this hotel, you can’t use our services here. Our parking spaces are for customers, outsiders are not allowed to park their vehicles arbitrarily. Now, you need to compensate for the damage to our customer’s car due to your random parking.”Jerry stared at Harvey arrogantly seeing the assistant manager siding with him. He then said, “Didn’t you hear her? Bumpkin, quickly compensate for my damage. Otherwise, I will call the police!”Harvey frowned. He did not expect Niumhi Grand Hotel to have such rules. However, he still said solemnly, “Assistant manager, although I didn't apply for your hotel’s membership card, I have already asked my secretary to book a place. Can’t I park here then?”He was here to treat Ella G
“This…” Shirley Ryan hesitated.She had never had a boyfriend since she grew up. Even if she came out today, it was because Jerry Zabel kept coming for her. He even used his connections and threatened her using her family. Only then she reluctantly agreed to come out for a meal.Feelings did not make any sense and it was very unreasonable. No feelings meant no feelings. If she had feelings for Jerry, she would have agreed to be his girlfriend when she was in college.However, at this moment, Jerry was using Harvey York’s affairs to threaten her, but she was somewhat embarrassed.She had a very good relationship with Harvey while they were in college. There was even something going on between them at one time. Nonetheless, Harvey became the live-in son-in-law of the Zimmer family after he graduated. The two of them completely lost contact.However, having her to watch Harvey crawling out of this place on his knees…Just when Shirley was still hesitating, Harvey became a little ang
Meanwhile, at the parking lot, Jerry Zabel could not help but smile when he saw Harvey York’s phone. He then laughed and said, “Oh my gosh, Harvey. You even use the old-model phone which includes a three-year calling credit for fifteen dollars. You are truly amazing!”He then glanced at Shirley Ryan and said indifferently, “Shirley, can’t you see it at this point? He’s a poor and useless guy. Why do you keep helping him? Do you think that he will be grateful? I know that something was going on between you two back then, but look at him, he’s nothing now. He isn’t even qualified to stand in front of me. Could it be that you are still thinking about his kindness and refuse to be my girlfriend?”Sure enough, Jerry was also not stupid. He knew that it was Harvey who had spoilt his plan when he tried to pursue Shirley back then. He certainly wanted to humiliate Harvey wantonly since he had the opportunity today.Not only he could vent out his anger, but he could also let Shirley’s good i
Willa White, the chief manager of Niumhi Grand Hotel was considered as a very powerful person in Niumhi. The people he met were all high-ranking nobles and he was respected by countless people due to his high position.In Niumhi, some chiefs of the second-class and third-class families did not even dare to take a breather before him.However, Willa knew very well that he had no foundation in Niumhi. He was just a dog being pushed outside by some top families.The largest family among those families were the Yorks.In South Light, York Enterprise represented the Yorks.The CEO of York Enterprise appeared in Niumhi Grand Hotel which was under his charge. How could he not panic? Moreover, judging from Yvonne Xavier’s tone, the CEO might be in a bad mood now.The assistant manager was about to continue taunting Harvey York. However, at this time, she saw all the security guards around her were in shock while looking behind her.She unconsciously turned her head back. The next moment
"Enough. There's no point staying here. This place is cold and lifeless. Let's return to Wolsing. We can have something hot together. I also have something I want to talk with you about," Samuel said as he patted Harvey's shoulder. Then, Samuel wanted to take Harvey with him."Nah," Harvey suddenly said. "I need to send Mandy back home first. Maybe over a cup of tea with milk to warm her body and stop her from shaking. We can go out another time."Everyone was stunned after they heard what Harvey had just said. How could Harvey reject an invitation from someone important like Samuel? Just… Who was he?But before they could even recover, Neve suddenly grabbed a hand crossbow from one of her followers and pointed it toward Harvey. It was clear that she was still upset. The madness on her face was tinged by vengefulness and pain as she shouted, "I know you're more important than any of us, Mr. Samuel! I know someone like you can ignore all the laws in this world! But where's justice in
It was obvious that Lanny had no choice but to say that. Since if she did not do that, not only would she ruin the Bennett family's reputation, but the entire Grand City's reputation would also be tarnished.""Oh, right. You're called Lanny? And you're threatening me with your predecessor? Are you from White Peak by any chance?" Samuel asked curiously.Lanny gritted her teeth and replied, "That's right. I'm from White Peak, one of the Seven Families of Grand City."Samuel smirked and said, "I have dueled Ares Bennett three times, and he lost to me three times. If I wanted to, I could have slain him immediately the last time if I wanted to. That's why Ares has to call me Mr. Samuel whenever he sees me on the street and listens to me. You're just a greenhorn from White Peak… And you're pretending to be something special before me?"Samuel did not bother showing Lanny any respect. "Not to mention, everyone here has a good head on their shoulders. What really happened and what the trut
"It's all a misunderstanding, Mr. Samuel!" said Lanny with a darkened expression."But just now, I heard something about fighting to the last man, and there were so many weapons being used here that were targeted against martial artists. Are you telling me there's a misunderstanding? Do I look like a fool?" Samuel gave a cold smile and waved his hand.A formless wave of energy instantly rolled against Lanny's men. Lanny and the others were shocked and used everything they could to block this attack, which took them by surprise.But it was useless.In just an instant, all the Grand City's youths did everything they could, but all of them had to take three steps back as they coughed out a mouthful of blood.Some distance away, some men with longbows and crossbows also grunted as they fell to the ground.In just a simple attack, the Forbidden Wasteland's defenses instantly crumbled.Perhaps this was what they meant by invincibility.No one from Grand City dared stand beside Harvey
The man who came wore a white robe with a cold expression. He looked around and spoke clearly, "I heard someone say my young master has committed murder. I'm here to see if any evidence and witnesses are saying so. If I find any of them are fake, I'll slay those and their families who claim so!"He said it casually, like an old man making a comment while sweeping the streets. However, everyone here could feel their heart skipping a beat.There was only silence.Even Ethan's gaze froze for a moment. That was because he sensed an aura from the old man, which was extremely close to the chief instructor.He was an elite!As for the rest of those from Grand City, they were all stunned. The old man was able to hover in the air. This could only be done when one had become one with nature! Could it be that other elites who were not from the Grand City had reached the same level?Even Lanny, who boasted that a great power supported her, could not help but watch, her expression pale and in
"You are really quite impressive, Ethan. But do you dare to go against the Ministry of Defense's orders openly? I suggest you better give your great elder a call. Or maybe wait for him to call you!" Lanny said as if she had gotten an ace in a hole."I'm worried that you'll accidentally cause a chain effect and lose everything," Ethan coldly replied as he stared at Lanny with a similar coldness in his eyes. To him, none of his leaders could compare with the importance of the chief instructor. But the problem was, he could not inform the great elder why he did this. That was why even someone resolute like Ethan could not help but frown.However, his expression quickly returned calm. "Looks like Grand City isn't as powerful. Not only can you do nothing to me, but you even have to use your favors and connections from the past to stop me. And now, I'm even more convinced that Mr. Harvey is innocent! So, my apologies, but tonight, I don't care who calls me… I'm not going to stop!"Then, E
"You have reasons?" There was fury in Lanny's eyes. "Then tell me, what reasons are they?"Ethan seemed disdainful. "With your status? You don't have the right to know what the reasons are."He did not make that up, though. Lanny really did not have the authority to know Harvey's actual status. "Alright, let's not waste our time. Tell your people to put down your weapons, raise their hands, and squat over there. All my friends here are very impatient. If both sides went into conflict and accidentally killed a few people…"Well. It's going to be categorized as a training exercise accident. We don't have to bear any responsibility for it."Ethan's words were calm, as if everything he said made total and natural sense."Ethan!" Lanny shuddered in anger. "Grand City and the Ministry of Defense have always kept a respectful distance from each other. Are you going to make Grand City your enemy just for this man over here? Have you considered the consequences and whether it was worth it?
Grand City was outside the usual system within Country H. However, the truth was that it was a place where all the Sacred Training Grounds congregated together. Whether it was Country H in its current form or when all the other dynasties ruled it, it had always been an untouchable faction.Not to mention that they were protected by the Seven Families as well as the other Sacred Training Grounds. If they decided to fight, the power Grand City could call upon could far surpass what others could have imagined.That was why Lanny believed they had a fighting chance even when they faced the legendary Sword Camp."Grand City's reputation really does precede itself. And you're really quite impressive yourself," Ethan said as he clapped his hands. "If it's someone else, they would be kneeling on the ground shuddering, right? Unfortunately, you forgot that we survived on real battlefields. We do not fear death. Besides the Chief Instructor, every soldier in this camp is a King of Arms! Even
Harvey slightly frowned. He was shocked that Ethan had arrived. He even brought 500 soldiers from the Sword Camp. Was he attempting to destroy the entire Forbidden Wasteland?The 500 soldiers immediately encircled the entire Forbidden Wasteland as Harvey calmly watched how things developed. All of them had a sword by their waist, and their right hand was at the hilt. While they had not pulled out their swords yet, they were exuding a malevolent aura around them.Harvey had trained each of them, and they had all gone to war with him in the past. When they saw that Harvey was completely unharmed, they were both filled with excitement and relief. However, because of their orders, none of them went to salute him."So, this is the famous Forbidden Wasteland of World City. It was said that the people who were imprisoned here could never leave. I wonder if the Sword Camp can leave this place in one piece?"Ethan, who was in his military uniform, jumped off from the helicopter in mid-air.
Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lanny. There was only disdain in his eyes. "You said that you're doing everything by your law… But in truth, you simply want to make things worse. Despite looking like an agent of justice right now, what is happening right now is what you wanted the most."I'm the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, which makes me the mayor of Grand City in name. Whether you want to interrogate or set me up, all of you must consider the consequences of your actions. But what if I was the one that did it first? That would give you a reason to attack me, right?"I have to admit that it indeed worked in your favor, Lanny. But it also showed me the truth about Grand City! Rules and laws that have existed since ancient times? All of them were jokes and excuses!"Blade listened to Harvey with a dark expression, as if his beliefs were challenged. Meanwhile, Lanny remained calm. She breathed deeply and gave a cold reply, "Stop wasting your breath, Ha
