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
“Why should we get close, and not the other way around?” Harvey said, still calm.“Help me send an invitation to her, saying that the prince of South Light is asking Lady Judd out for a meal.”Yoana froze slightly at Harvey’s look of determination.She couldn’t help but frown.“I don’t understand why we need to see Selena at such a crucial moment, Harvey.”“Because it’s almost Madam York’s birthday, the Yorks have been keeping a close eye on Lady Judd. She won’t be allowed to go anywhere.”“They need to make sure that she’ll acknowledge Vince as her son.”“Forgive me for being frank, but you’re only challenging the Yorks from Hong Kong by inviting Lady Judd out right now.”“I don’t recommend this.”“It doesn’t matter,” Harvey replied.“Even if we do nothing, that doesn’t stop Vince from trying to kill us.”“Precisely because of Madam York’s birthday that he might not do anything rash, all so he can keep his position.”“But once he rises to power, he’ll definitely come at me
On Taiping Mountaintop, inside the Parson family’s villa.Matthew Flynn and Ellis Parson sat in front of each other with horrible looks all over their faces.Quinton York, who was sitting cross-legged while sipping his tea, sat across them.After playing with his new phone and sending a text, he then smiled faintly at Matthew and Ellis.“We’re all one of the Four Masters of Hong Kong, after all. Are you going to do business with me or not?“If you do, you’re one of ours from today onward. When I rise to power, I won’t forget about the things you’ve done.“But if you don’t, all I need to do is inform Vince York that you betrayed him.”Naturally, Quinton was the one who had sent the text to Harvey York.Matthew’s expression changed slightly after hearing Quinton’s words.“You’re threatening us using Vince?” he coldly exclaimed after some time.“Are you insane, Quinton?!“You think Vince is going to believe you?!“You’re just his lapdog!”“We’ve been his brothers for so many
At the same time, on the Huancheng Expressway, a dark red Porsche 718 was zooming at extremely high speeds, as if the car was injected with adrenaline.The driver was none other than Helena herself. Her face had lost all color and her eyes quivered constantly.She was one of Selena’s subordinates who had been lurking in the Emerald Club for many years. Her goal was to acquire as much info as possible.But just then, the moment she walked past a box, she overheard Lexie and Vince’s conversation.“Oh, Vince. You’re almost there. It won’t be long before you become the head of the family!“If that old hag takes you under her name, you’ll be able to inherit everything from that family!“Along with the property from my house, three out of five branches of the family will support you! Your position will be solidified!“Of course, when everything is done, you need to take care of that old hag immediately!“After all, she isn’t fond of you at all. If there’s another kept man that shows
A barrage of gunshots was heard, resulting in bullet holes on the Porsche.The bullets managed to miss Helena by a hair’s length.But because of her inexperience, she thought that she was just lucky.Booooom!Right at this moment, a green Toyota Prado came from the side of the road and rammed right into the back of a van.Booom!The van was immediately sent flying. After rolling on the ground for a short while, it became still again. The gunmen inside were completely decimated.The Toyota Prado did not stop there. It kept charging forward without pause.Boom boom boom!One after another, the vans were all sent flying while one of them rolled over immediately after.When the gunmen wearing black masks crawled out, the van exploded without warning.Stephen crawled out of his van with a face full of glass shards, but he seemed oddly gloomy, as if he knew that this was going to happen.When he saw Yoana in the driver’s seat and Harvey beside her, his face turned ashen.He drew
After pondering over the situation, Harvey gave Yoana a signal.He dragged Helena out of the driver’s seat while Yoana got a first-aid kit from the trunk to treat her.Although Helena was in great shock, she was only covered in minor bruises. The treatment went smoothly. After receiving an injection, she regained consciousness, albeit barely.She had a look of confusion on her face when she saw Harvey and Yoana. She wanted to say something, but didn’t have the strength to muster a single word.Harvey calmly smiled without saying another word, then narrowed his eyes at the garden villa in front of him.A huge group of bodyguards from the York family rushed over with loaded firearms.After all, this was Selena’s place, who was the lady of the Yorks.The gate had been crashed into while an intense gunfight happened outside. If the bodyguards didn’t come out in an instant, there would’ve been a real problem.“Don’t move!”“Who are you?!”“What’s going on here?!”The bodyguard le
