“He’s not lucky. He just has a pretty face, enough to be a kept man.”Vince’s face was filled with disdain.“I got news from the Nanyang Gang. That man’s trying to cling onto the Cobb family!”“I heard Harvey’s doing such a good job pampering Dean, he’s chosen as the next head of the family!”“That guy’s born to be a kept man!”“Look. Yoana, Leslie, Irene… So many women from Hong Kong are so crazy for him, they’re willing to go against me!”“It’s a shame kept men like him can never be able to understand how to mobilize power and authority.”“He’ll have to pay for selling out his body sooner or later!”After hearing Vince’s blatant insults toward Harvey, Scarlett finally looked relieved.As for Vince, there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes when he stole a glance at Scarlett.If Harvey really was just some kept man, there was no way he could reach this point.A shame the woman in front of Vince was no longer calm…If he didn’t calm Scarlett down, it would likely ruin his pl
At three o’clock in the morning, when everyone was still sleeping in the dark…Several Tesla X's stopped quietly in front of the Three Seasons Hotel.Men and women in black were inside the cars, their faces expressionless. They sat with their backs straight, their gazes were as cold as ice.Scarlett was the one leading them. She deliberately changed into a sneaking suit that night, one that clearly showed her enchanting figure.A shame the people under her were all focused on killing. They couldn’t care less about her beauty.After letting out a small sigh, Scarlett brought out a laptop and checked the data inside.Other than the rooftop garden, only the presidential suite was on the top floor of the Three Seasons Hotel.Following Yoana’s arrangements, the entire place was filled with elites of the Dragon Palace’s branch. They were stationed there to keep Harvey safe.Harvey, who just had an intense battle against the Sword Saint, must’ve been terribly exhausted.If they wan
The subordinate brought out his phone as he spoke. There was quite a lot of footage inside.Not only were there clips of Harvey ordering food, he was even seen lying in his room without even putting the drapes on his windows down.There were also videos of the elites’ patrol path, clearly showing their positions.“Good! Very good!”“You think you’re that great, Harvey?”“Didn’t you beat the Sword Saint and take Head Bauer’s place?”“Why do you seem so tired now?!”“Without Dean’s support, I’d like to see how he can still put up a front!”Scarlett made another gesture, and everyone got out of their cars in an instant.Scarlett pointed at two of the team leaders.“Number One, take a few people with you to get in through the fire exits. Make sure you keep them covered.”“Number Two, take your people and guard the dedicated elevator. Nobody gets in or out.”“The rest, come with me to the rooftop garden to deal with those elites!”“We need that bastard Harvey alive! I want him
“Contact Head York right now!”“Quick! Call the cops!”The elites stumbled to the inner parts of the building. When Scarlett saw this, she smirked. ‘As expected for Harvey to be this useless!’‘Even the guards around him are cowards! They didn’t even come at us themselves, but they chose to call the cops?’‘How useless must they be to say something like that?’Scarlett wasted no time to swing the longsword in her hand. A cold smile hung on her lips.“Go!”Around thirty people unsheathed their longswords from their waists before pouncing forward.The presidential suite, located at the top of the Three Seasons Hotel, was about a thousand six hundred square feet.Scarlett and her subordinates surrounded the place in an instant.At this very moment, she felt that Harvey was just a lone fish in the barrel.But after suffering so many losses, Scarlett didn’t lose her caution completely. She gestured to everyone to pull out their handguns, before pulling out her own and taking th
A Shadow Guard swung his sword forward with all his might.Clang!Edwin did not try to dodge. He used both hands to swing his sword again. As he did so, a bright light resembling the moon’s glare flashed in the air.The Shadow Guard’s longsword split in half. Almost instantly, red spread all over his throat.The others gasped in horror at the terrifying sight. They instinctively tried to back away and use their firearms.Bang, bang, bang!Edwin slashed forward, emotionless. The Shadow Guards didn’t get a chance to run away, even with their firearms. Every single one of them covered their throats, eyes filled with disbelief, before falling flat on the ground.Edwin was unimaginably powerful.Dealing with so many experts with such ease wasn’t something an ordinary King of Arms could do.At this very moment, Edwin had finally stepped into the realm of being a God of War.After dealing with the guards, Edwin didn’t continue his rampage. He only glanced at Scarlett with a mocki
Scarlett only saw Harvey as a useless kept man.Thus, she thought that she had a chance to make a comeback if she could break up Harvey and Yoana.Harvey chuckled, amused.“You can’t possibly think there’s a point to agitate me with those words, right?” he asked coolly.“If I wanted you dead, you would’ve been dead by now. Why would I keep you waiting?”“What the hell do you want?!”Scarlett’s expression changed slightly.“Simple. Tell me who ordered you to kill me. I’ll need to have a word with whoever that is.”Harvey smiled.“I know that it’s most likely that idiot Vince…”“But if you want to let the Five Virtues Temple take the blame, I don’t have any objections either.”“After all, I’ve been thinking about visiting them for a long time now.”Harvey appeared calm and casual. Scarlett’s expression changed immediately.“You’re trying to hurt Vince?!”Harvey laughed again.“What’s with that surprise? He’s been sending so many people after me. It’s only natural I get
When Yoana arrived with her subordinates at the hotel, the place was already cleaned up. Even the blood between the floor tiles was long gone.Air fresheners had been mixed in the air along with the scent of sunlight, covering up quite a bit of murderous intent and the blood that had seeped in the air.In the garden, a long table filled with pastries stood in front of Harvey. The smell alone was refreshing and hunger-inducing.Harvey had no appetite for food, but he was calmly sipping his black tea.He gestured to Yoana to sit down after seeing her arrival.Harvey met quite a lot of women in both Hong Kong and Las Vegas. Zina, Leslie, Irene, and many others…But out of every single one of them, only Yoana could be considered to be his most trusted comrade.Yoana was very decisive in her actions. Harvey admired that fact.It was also why only people of the Dragon Palace’s branch showed up to help.Harvey believed Yoana would be able to deal with the situation properly, without
”We’re done with Mitchell, but regarding Scarlett…”Yoana knew Harvey had a way to fix this, but she still had to say it.“Everyone knows Vince is involved in this,” Harvey said calmly.“But there’s no point looking for him with this corpse.”“Judging from what we know about him, he’s definitely a shallow man who says whatever that benefits him. He won’t confess.”“He might even turn around and frame all of us while he’s at it. There’ll be bigger trouble if that happens.”“So, you mean…”Yoana frowned while her eyes frantically twitched.She had figured out what Harvey wanted to do, but the knowledge left her shocked.Harvey flicked a USB from his hand onto Scarlett’s corpse. “Even though the surveillance systems are completely destroyed, one of ours happened to take a video proving that Scarlett killed herself.”“We’ll send the corpse right to the Five Virtues Temple and upload the video.”“I think they’ll give us a fair statement soon enough.”Harvey appeared calm, but Yo
