Harvey York took the phone from the other side of the table and scrolled past a few pictures with a faint smile.“I have to admit. I’m impressed that you’re willing to sacrifice your own daughter for your own benefit.“But, you’re asking me to be your son-in-law?“Let’s not even talk about whether I want to or not…“Even if I did, you’d probably restrain and destroy me after you’re done using me, right?“You probably came up with the plan to shut my mouth with family relations just now.“Surely your daughter didn’t know that she got sold out by her own father at that very moment.“I never understood how distant wealthy families could be, but now I do.”Harvey slammed the phone on the table, then squinted while crossing his legs.“Your offers are really attractive, Third Lord York.“It’s a shame I don’t like cooperating with a dirtbag like you.“That’s why I’m declining your offer.”Bang!Noah York furiously slammed on the table with an enraged look.“You truly disappoint
Noah York took another puff of his cigar and then stood up.“I really don’t know what to say about you.“Should I call you ignorant?“Or are you just a little too vigorous because of your young age?“In any case, I’ll be teaching you a lesson today.“I’ll let you know what it means to have someone else that’s way better than you!”At this very moment, Noah was no longer pretending to be some businessman. He was a true upperclassman.A decisive and ruthless one at that.Harvey chuckled.“You think you can even lay a finger on me with these people, Third Lord York?“This isn’t enough now, is it?”“It’s enough. They’ll be able to humble you properly.”Noah glanced at the woman by his side and calmly said, “Snow, let this man see what a peak King of Arms looks like.“Let him know that his lame kung fu doesn’t mean anything to us wealthy families.“Right. Just break all his limbs. Don’t kill him just yet. I’m still waiting for him to be the next master of Hong Kong.“Only whe
Bang!The smell of gunpowder wafted in the air when the bullet flew. It was a decisive shot.Naturally, there was no hint of hesitation or mercy in the shot. Snow’s goal was to keep Harvey York in this very room.It was a shame. Snow was fast, but Harvey was faster.Harvey pounced forward as Snow pulled the trigger and tackled right into her torso.Bang!The stray bullet hit right at the ceiling.Snow was immediately sent flying before she crashed onto a bookshelf made out of Stayport’s yellow flower pear wood. Her orifices were bleeding profusely, while many of her bones were broken.The silver firearm flew away from her arms, spinning on the ground, out of reach from her.“You’re a peak King of Arms? That’s all you can do?”Harvey was showing utter disgust.The words were enough to put Snow in despair.Harvey could not be bothered to talk anymore. He left the office all on his own.He then walked into an elevator before arriving at the front door.“Who are you?!”“What
“What?“Third Brother took Harvey York away after leaving the garden villa?“His personal bodyguard, Snow, got completely crippled?“That b*stard even slapped Third Brother in the face?!”Inside the VIP sickroom of Hong Kong Hospital, LexieYork gasped as she spoke on the phone while cutting an apple for Vince York.Her face was filled with utter disbelief after she hung up.Then, she carried the plate of apples on Vince’s table before him and carefully poked a toothpick into one of the sliced pieces.Vince put down his laptop, removing himself from his busy business for the time being. He looked at Lexie and said, “What happened?”Lexie let out a huge sigh.“I don’t know what came over Third Brother. He went to stop Harvey…“And he suffered as a result.“He also got humiliated.”Lexie then explained everything that had happened to Vince.After biting into a piece of an apple, he then showed a confused look on his face.“Interesting. Julian York was taken to the Law Enforc
“What did you say?!”Vince York froze before coming back to his senses.“Looks like Third Uncle here’s trying to kick me out of my position without making a noise!“But is there proof?“He’ll never admit to it if we don’t show any evidence.”Lexie York then showed a picture on her phone to Vince.“According to his statements, he said that he has proof about what happened ten years ago. Besides the third house, everyone else in the family was involved.”Harvey York and Noah York could be seen sitting in front of each other in the picture.After squinting for a moment, Vince curiously said, “But he’s also involved with the incident…“If he shows the evidence, he’ll kill himself before he even gets to us.”“Knowing that sly old fox, the evidence will surely be in his favor since he already has it ready,” replied Lexie calmly.“Besides, he’s most likely trying to give the evidence to Selena Judd through Harvey’s hands.“And since Selena trusts Harvey that much, she’ll surely bu
The evening sun of the Victoria Harbor was just extravagant.Harvey York sat on the roof of a cruise ship while flipping through dozens of newspapers he bought.But after he was done, he seemed a little down.He did not expect that the reporters were such cowards. He gave them such a big scoop, but they would not even dare report anything interesting.The reporters would not dare to disrespect Vince York or Noah York.“As expected from the rich and powerful.“Even the media’s being controlled by them.”Right as Harvey was lamenting about the situation, a person walked up and casually sat on the recliner beside Harvey.He was Marcel York, the lord of the Yorks of Hong Kong.He was wearing a Hawaiian-styled floral shirt and a pair of big sunglasses. He did not bring anybody with him at this moment.If Harvey did not know who he was, he would have mistaken him for an ordinary man on the road.Harvey handed Marcel a cup of coffee after seeing him lie down.“Why are you here tod
Noah York was wearing a windbreaker, showing off his aura of an upperclassman.The palm print on his face was already adequately handled by a doctor. The mark was almost untraceable at this point.But when Harvey York glanced over, he could still see a faint palm print.Marcel York looked over curiously, interested in how Noah would play out this big show.“Is that you, Lord York?”“Ah! Sir York! You’re here too?”Noah came uninvited before jogging to Harvey’s cruise. When he reached the roof, he acted like he was close to Harvey.It was hard to imagine that he was planning to force his hand against Harvey and was slapped in the face just before this.Harvey squinted slightly. He had to acknowledge just how resourceful these sly old foxes were.Harvey could still vividly remember the slap across Noah’s face, but he looked as if he had already forgotten about it.Impressive…Harvey had no intention of letting Noah off the hook, though.“What a small world, Third Lord York!
Noah froze. He couldn’t get himself to bring the cup over.Narrowing his eyes briefly at Marcel, Noel then let out a bitter laugh. “Looks like my Fourth Brother no longer has any emotions after being the lord for so long…”“I never understood how aloof wealthy families can get, but now I do.”“Speak. Don’t waste my time,” Marcel said, his voice ice.Noah hesitated for a moment when seeing Marcel’s apathetic, emotionless demeanor.“Second Brother should’ve called you by now,” Noah said quietly.“Let my son go.”“Why?” Marcel demanded coldly.“He’s my son. He made mistakes, but he doesn’t deserve death.”“The Yorks’ Law Enforcement are in charge of his case, but I’m sure they’ll respect your decision as well.”“We don’t have a lot of male heirs in the family this generation. Julian’s considered to be quite the great talent, too.”“I don’t want my son to have his future ruined just because of something like this.”“If you want, I’ll even make him your son.”“No matter what,
