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,
After Noah left, Harvey stood up and picked up a file. He flipped through the pages before asking quietly, “What show are you putting on now, Lord York?”“Since you knew all these were with Noah, why not just take it from him and give your son justice?”“Why go through all this trouble?”“You’re letting Julian out and giving him his position back just for these?”“That seems like a waste.”“I got it myself. It’s different if someone else gave it to me.”“At least in front of Grandma York, anyway.”“Besides, it’s necessary for me to free Julian.”“If I don’t, I won’t have an excuse to free my own daughter.”Harvey’s pupils shrunk. Marcel seemed to have started his plans.The day of Grandma York’s birthday would prove to be an exciting one.Harvey chuckled, amused.“If that’s the case, then I’d like an invitation to Grandma York’s birthday as well, Lord York.”“I’d feel bad for myself if I’m not there to see the show with my own eyes!”Marcel looked at Harvey with a profoun
At the cruise terminal of the Victoria Harbor, a pitch-black cruise slowly stopped ashore.A few G-Wagons could be seen parked in a straight line. Soon after, several people clad in traditional clothing stepped out of the cars.All of them wore warm smiles.Vince was there among them. There was a faint smile on his lips as he squinted at the person coming out of the Dragon Cell’s untraceable prison.The man in question had simple clothing, but his hands were still covered in bandages and casts. He was none other than Julian.No matter how much Vince wanted Julian dead, he still showed a warm smile as he greeted the latter along with Quinton, Matthew, and the rest. When they saw Julian, they put on looks of enthusiasm and sympathy.“Oh, Julian! Our brothers and sisters pleaded guilty so you can be released!”“Remember to treat everyone for a meal as thanks!”“Young Lord York.”Julian quickly approached Vince before dropping into a respectful bowing.He didn’t know what exactly
