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
Jerry Zabel’s expression was dull. Things were happening too fast and he could not understand what was going on due to his low IQ.After a while, he flew into a fury and said, “Why should I pay him? I’m also your member. I have paid seven thousand six hundred dollars for signing up the membership card!”“Didn’t you claim that only members can become diners in Niumhi Grand Hotel? Why can he come in and dine even if he’s just a useless man riding in an electric bike?”Willa White said indifferently, “It was because the reservation for Mr. York is made by our top customer of Niumhi Grand Hotel. To put it simply, the annual fee for signing up for this membership card is about eight hundred thousand dollars. So, do you understand the difference now?”Jerry’s face instantly turned pallid. He reluctantly applied for the entry-level membership card of seven thousand six hundred dollars. What was the concept of eight hundred thousand dollars then? His entire fortune did not even worth that
Ella Graves, who was on the side was puzzled and said before Harvey York spoke. “Harvey, didn’t she ask the security guards to hit you just now? She even asked you to compensate for your senior’s damages and refused to help check our reservation. Why would Mr. White still give her a promotion?”Ella was very curious. Could it be that this is how Niumhi Grand Hotel operated?Willa White, who was beside Harvey, had a sinking feeling in his heart although he was still smiling. He almost vomited blood. He was a smart man, and he probably knew what was going on.The assistant manager probably looked down on him and did not help him check the reservation. She also helped that other guy to deal with Harvey just now. It was outrageous. She was playing with fire.At this moment, Willa broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Harvey was unharmed and well. He showed up at the right time. Otherwise, he would be finished this time.He looked at the assistant manager coldly as soon as he thought
The revolving restaurant on the top floor of Niumhi Grand Hotel was also the location of the western restaurant. Those who wanted to make a reservation had to sign up for the membership card. It generally required a week in advance to make a reservation.The elevator was the exclusive access to the top floor and this was also the first time Harvey York was here.Meanwhile, Harvey had asked Willa White to leave and not disturb them. Ella Graves went to the washroom to fix her makeup. Harvey was a bit bored standing in front of the elevator.At this moment, a figure in a suit suddenly stopped in front of Harvey. After he looked Harvey up and down for a while, he frowned and asked, “Harvey, why are you here?”Harvey frowned. It was Zack Zimmer standing in front of him, and a woman with a ‘plastic’ face next to him.Harvey was a little speechless. ‘I just came here to have a meal. Why do I always meet with these troublesome guys?’Harvey just wanted to ignore him at this moment. Howe
Durandal and his men froze when they saw what happened, and their expressions darkened. While that long-haired man was frivolous, he was also a martial arts master.Before they could even react, Harvey had already snapped off the man's finger and fed it to the dog. That action was enough to stop Durandal and the others in their tracks, and even managed to silence the angry crowd.No one expected a man called a pretty face to be so brutal and decisive. At that moment, the men from Parkerville could feel the coldness radiating from Harvey. They couldn't stop the fear spreading in their heart."Darn it! How dare you hurt him?!""Do you have a death wish?""We're going to destroy your underground arena!"Everyone from Parkerville was filled with fury, wanting to retaliate. However, Harvey's calm expression was enough to scare them into silence. Durandal, the only person who knew Harvey's real identity, raised his hand to stop them. Then, he shot Harvey a cold look."What is the
"I believe someone outside the ring informed the young boxer. In short, this is no longer a one-versus-one battle! This is two versus one… No, perhaps even more! This isn't fair!"And then, Durandal raised his arm and shouted, "Tell me, friends! Is it against the rule for someone to use a high-tech method to instruct the young fighter in the middle of the match? Should they pay for all our losses?"While no one knew how Durandal could be so sure there was cheating involved, many saw that there was a chance for them to recover their losses. They knew who to support. All of them stood up and started yelling."Cheating! You're cheating!""Pay us! Pay us back!"Durandal continued to raise his arm. "We've already won this battle! However, the underground boxing ring was unable to accept their loss! Other than making them admit it, shouldn't we ask them to pay three times the money?!"All the spectators were excited and chorused brainlessly, "Three times! Three times!"They didn't car
As the Boxing Champion coughed out a mouthful of blood, it seemed to have caused a chain reaction. The blood vessels in his body began to bulge and explode, and blood began to flow out from his body. It was quite terrifying to watch, but from his bloodshot eyes, he seemed to have recovered some sort of clarity.He glared at the young fighter in front of him and collapsed on the ring, his eyes filled with disbelief."Ha… Didn't even break a sweat." The young fighter raised his hand, disdain on his face. His expression was calm, but everyone could see his arrogance."How is that possible?!" At that moment, there was only silence. No one expected the situation would change so quickly. The Boxing Champion had been defeated so quickly, many weren't sure what had happened. This had surpassed everyone's understanding.No matter if the audience was furious or in disbelief, the Boxing Champion had already fallen and the young fighter stood in the middle of the ring with a calm express
Everyone was still filled with mixed expressions as both sides clashed. To the Boxing Champion, he had already won countless fights. There was no need for him to be afraid of a young man.Meanwhile, the young fighter had great confidence. Nothing could shake him.The moment both sides clashed, dust and dirt burst from the floor. Everyone was shocked by their murderous intent.Their fists met. At that instant, they fought in the most brutal and primal way. They kept crashing into each other as they battled. The muted sounds of their attacks could be heard from outside the ring. The ring, though made of solid wood, began to crack open from the impact of their attacks. Everyone watched with bated breath, excitement etched on their faces. No one expected that the young man who looked like he was going to get beaten down in one punch would have so much endurance.It was way too thrilling! Too exciting!The two moved faster and faster. Very quickly, normal people couldn't even see h
When Harvey heard Mandy's agreement to his plan to close down the place, he immediately snapped his finger. A young man smaller and leaner than the Boxing Champion slowly walked out from the back.He wasn't surrounded by a malevolent aura like the Boxing Champion, and he didn't beat his chest like a drum either. He simply waved his hand around in a dull way, like he was only doing this as part of his job. When the spectators saw this, all of them booed.When some of the spectators who were hoping for a chance to turn their luck around saw this, they couldn't help but start to curse.What was the Ninth Branch doing?Why did they pull out a kid like this?Were they getting him killed?Meanwhile, Durandal and the others all glanced at each other before cackling madly. They were all from the Sacred Training Grounds, so they could see the young man was indeed someone special. But no matter how special he was, the difference in power couldn't be so easily overcome.There was only one
One hour later, Harvey once again appeared at the VIP seats. Durandal and the others had been waiting for them. When they saw Harvey appear, they grinned. "One hour is over, pretty boy. Can we start the battle now? Looking at how confident you are, maybe you should consider fighting yourself. If you're willing, I can tell the Boxing Champion to just use one arm."It was obvious that not only did Durandal want to use this chance to test Harvey's power, but he also wanted to get him killed.Harvey smiled. "There's no need for overwhelming firepower. Even your father couldn't make me fight him, let alone your underling."Durandal's eyes turned incredibly cold when he heard that. Just as the atmosphere in the VIP seats was becoming fired up, the atmosphere around the ring was also becoming more tense.They hadn't even fought yet, but both sides were already staring down at each other apprehensively. It would be quite intense once the fight really began.Very quickly, Durandal took a
Harvey ignored all of them, but simply looked at all the fighters. In the end, Harvey's eyes fell on a young man of about eighteen years old. It was obvious he had just come of age, and he had trained his body well. From his physique, Harvey could tell that his martial arts abilities were quite good too.Harvey could tell immediately that the young man probably had an extraordinary upbringing to have such power at such an age. He might be a core student who came out from a Sacred Training Ground to train.Most importantly, the other fighters either looked at Harvey warily or in envy. Only he looked at Harvey peacefully, as if everyone in this world were ordinary people.Harvey gave Maya a look, and Maya quickly introduced him. "Sir, this is a servant that a member of the Ninth Branch picked up from under the bridge. He's mute, but he's extremely loyal. When we realized he has great talent in martial arts, we decided to turn him into a fighter."Harvey narrowed his eyes. What kind
Maya was slightly stunned. However, she had always been very trusting of Harvey. She didn't say anything and quickly prepared the contract.When Durandal saw what was happening, he smiled coldly and immediately signed his name.Just as Harvey was going to sign his name, Mandy's expression turned dark and said, "Harvey, why don't we bet my hand? This is a Ninth Branch affair. It didn't have much to do with you in the first place."Harvey could sense Mandy cared about him and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Not to mention, certain things are unavoidable. You and the Ninth Branch are simply taking hits on my behalf. Trust me, I can manage this."Mandy hesitated a little and wanted to say something, but before she could, Durandal already said coldly, "Enough with the mushy nonsense. If you can't take a wager like this, I'm more than happy to let you both lick my boots a hundred times. After that, we'll call it even!"Harvey patted Mandy's shoulder and picked up the pen to sign his
"Your underlings are either Boxing Champions or Sword Champions. While they all sounded terrifying and their names quite stylish, and sound like they can defeat everyone that stands before them…" Harvey began coolly."Everything you did is so you can take all of the Ninth Branch's money, isn't it? If that's the case, why waste everyone's time? Let's do it decisively. We'll settle everything in one go. Of course, if you're scared, you can tell me too. I won't force you."Harvey shook his head and looked at Mandy. "This is boring, Mandy. Let's go, he's just a coward. I wonder where this spoiled brat comes from? He's scared of getting smacked by his own hand if he loses a few pennies. There's no need to waste time with people like this."When Mandy heard it, she said, "That's right. There's no need to waste time with rubbish."Durandal smiled coldly when he heard how they were mocking him. "No need for such sarcasm. I'm telling you right now, I'm not afraid of playing a game like th
