“You…”Harvey York’s words had utterly made Lexie York feel sluggish.She did not expect that the perfect successor of the Yorks, in her eyes, was nothing to Harvey.Lexie tried to calm herself down after taking a deep breath.There was no way back after all that had already happened.She looked at Harvey with a tender look in her eyes.“Sir York, the things you said did happen.“But, you of all people should know that men of great ambition are not concerned by trivial matters.“Vince York only did all this because he had no choice.“If he takes the position as the new head of the family, I’m sure he’ll definitely protect the citizens of the southeast waters in Country H’s stead!“If he didn’t have such ambition and patriotism, why would I, the lady of the Dragon Palace, even help him in the first place?“If you don’t believe Vince or me, you should at least put your trust in the Dragon Palace, right?“This is the pillar of Country H that deals with outside forces. The one
Harvey York squinted at the disappearing convoy before glancing back at Lexie York.“You’ve been putting up a show this whole time just to let Lady Judd see this?” he coldly exclaimed.“What? Now the show’s over, but you still intend to lock me in with you?“You’re not scared of me slapping you to death?”Harvey sized up the woman in front of her.He only wanted to get in the car in the first place to play tricks on Lexie, causing chaos and disarray for Vince.Lexie had the same plan in mind. She wanted the weak alliance between Harvey and Selena Judd to crumble.Safe to say that this woman was quite intriguing after all. It was enough to prove her intelligence in coming up with such tactics.It was a shame that those so-called tactics were nothing more than a farce for Harvey.“Selena’s already gone, and you can’t catch up to her. Besides, it’s raining outside. Are you not afraid of getting a cold, Sir York?”Lexie sat back in her seat. The tender look on her face completely
“Where’s your proof?”Harvey York was indifferent.“You wouldn’t think that this is proof of us having an affair just because I got inside your car, right?“Your fourth brother is the head of the Yorks, after all! Do you think he’s really that naive?”“He’ll believe it for sure.”Lexie York showed a faint smile.“I know he hates me to the core, but he cares about the family’s reputation the most.“If I cry in front of him about an ignorant man trying to taint me and force Selena Judd to take the fall!“Even with just a bit of proof, I’m sure he’ll definitely come for you!“And Sir York, you should believe that it’s not hard at all for me to fabricate some proof!“Either you kneel and beg me so you can become Vince York’s servant…“Or you die!”Harvey raised his hand and looked at his palm before shifting his gaze toward Lexie while showing a playful look on his face.“Lexie, do you know what it means to be too smart for your own good?“I know full well the kind of person
“You really are something, Sir York!”Lexie York’s expression worsened after seeing Harvey York snoop out every piece of equipment she had on her.She frowned while she squinted at Harvey.“No wonder even Vince York suffered losses against you,” exclaimed Lexie coldly.“Your intelligence, skill, and luck are outstanding. No ordinary person can even come close to you.“I keep provoking and annoying you, but you saw through everything without even losing your head.“I have to admit. We did underestimate you.“But this is a good thing. It’s only more fun if I crush a man as strong and capable as you.”Lexie stepped on the pedal and drove the car to Huancheng Expressway’s gateway before unlocking the doors.“Get out of here already!”Harvey opened the door before glancing over at Lexie.“Don’t you worry, Madam York,” he said playfully.“Since we’re already here, I won’t mind playing with you a bit longer.“That said, you’re getting pretty old now. I do hope you have some suppl
Harvey York calmly glanced at the driver before sitting in the back while reviewing the entire situation at hand.Everything that happened that day was planned out by Lexie York. This was quite startling to Harvey.It was good that Harvey also had plans of his own.Judging from how things turned out, Harvey was in a good spot for the time being.The slap, in the end, was not only for Harvey to vent his anger but also to give Selena Judd a clear statement.The slap meant that he and Vince York were completely incompatible.This also showed his resolve to put down Vince once and for all.That way, a woman obsessed with being pure like Selena would continue working with him.As for how this news would get to Selena, Harvey was not interested at all.He believed that Selena would definitely be on high alert as soon as she saw him and Lexie on the expressway.Maybe a few of her bodyguards were already keeping an eye on the place where he slapped Lexie.If Selena did not even have
Harvey York showed a faint smile.“I’ll be frank, Lady Judd. Other than the truth, you need two other things.”“What else do I need?!”Selena Judd clearly frowned on the other side of the phone.“Number one, you need full support from Lord York. You and I both know that the higher-ups of the family were involved in the incident ten years ago.“If you don’t have Lord York’s full support, it’ll be useless even if you did get to learn the truth! You might even die in vain because of it!“Number two, you need to prepare a substitute.“Once Vince York is brought down, someone needs to take over his place. That way, the Yorks won’t be in chaos after. You and Lord York will be able to manage the family better this way.“Both of you are still young. I believe that if you get another twenty years, you’ll have your own child all grown up to succeed you.”Harvey sneakily implied that Vince was the culprit of what happened ten years ago.Selena was dead silent for a long while on the oth
Right when Harvey York was pondering over Vince York’s matter, he felt the car tremble violently.The flat road was suddenly extremely bumpy.Harvey opened his eyes before looking at his surroundings.“Where are we exactly?” he said after lightly chuckling.“Or rather, who do you work for?“Where are you taking me?”A road that has not been maintained for many years could be seen in front. There were many warning signs around the road, but they were also pretty rusty.While Harvey was asking questions, the driver immediately stepped on the pedal, rammed right past a roadblock, and charged forward.Harvey was indifferent even after seeing the driver’s suicidal look on his face.“What do you mean?“To your death, of course!”The driver wretchedly chuckled before dark blood trickled out the corner of his mouth.“The moment you get inside the car, your fate has been sealed!“There’ll be no waiting when Death itself comes for you!“I’ll be sending your way now, Sir York!“Mad
Harvey York rolled his body underwater indifferently before catching up to the yacht at extreme speeds.Even before ten seconds passed, he was already at the rear of the yacht.Along with a light tap, he managed to get himself on the deck.At the same time, he swung his spear forward.Pfffft!Blood splattered all over the place.The two gunners looking for Harvey covered their throats and fell to the ground while showing looks of utter disbelief.Harvey rolled forward and nailed the two on the deck with the same spear.“F*cker!”The other gunners came to their senses.Dozens of gunners wearing black masks rushed forward.The safeties of their firearms were already taken off. When they saw Harvey, they started pulling the trigger without remorse.Bang bang bang!The barrage of bullets covered the sky, destroying the entire place.The small deck turned into the most dangerous place of all humanity in an instant.The pungent smell of gunpowder was all over the place. Harvey
