Harvey York was slightly speechless. ‘What kind of perception is that? Could it be that Jerry Zabel is mentally ill?’ But before he could say anything, Kane Brooke had started to feel slightly impatient. He then took off his coat casually and threw it at a bodyguard beside him. He then said lightly, “Who’s that? I don’t care who you are. Get lost now. Don’t ruin my fun. If not, I’ll kill you later.” As he was saying that, he threw a glance at the bodyguard behind him. That bodyguard understood what he meant well. Hence, the bodyguard took out a stack of blue banknotes and threw them on the ground. For a lowly person like that, Kane had a lot of experience. He just had to threaten them slightly and gave them some money. Then, that person would know perfectly well what he should or should not say. That night, he went there to enjoy himself. He was in no mood to tackle a lowly person like that. Seeing that, Jerry was nervous inwardly. If Harvey took the money and left, he wou
Seeing that Mandy Zimmer had fallen asleep, Harvey York asked no more. He then moved his things to the study and spent his night there. The next day, when he woke up in the early morning, he got ready to prepare breakfast. But he soon heard Mandy, saying coldly, “From today onward, you don’t have to prepare breakfast for our family.” Harvey appeared helpless. He then sighed, “Darling, you’ve been overthinking about the incident last night. I’m just friends with Ella Graves.” Mandy peeked at him, and she had no intention to argue with him. She just appeared particularly cold and aloof. At first, she thought that the relationship between her and Harvey had changed slightly now. It was different from the past. She even imagined that they could act like a normal couple one day. Besides, she thought that she had indeed misunderstood about the incident at the hospital. She even prepared to express her gratitude. But unexpectedly, one single call and a photograph from the previous
Across from Dario Moore, there was a working desk. The president of the health centre looked at Dario from behind the working desk. Although he was scared inwardly, he could only do that no matter how frightened he was at that moment, when he thought about the benefits which he had gained. After all, if he offended Dario, he could still survive. But if he was being double-dealing after he promised to work for Tyson Woods, he might possibly suffer terribly at the end. “You know more than us about your younger sister’s condition. According to the state of things in the health centre now, we indeed have no way to help to perform a surgery on her. What about curing her?”“Besides, you occupy the only one single ward here for a long period of time, and you always fail to pay the hospitalization fees. To be frank, we’re quite helpless too. Now, a lot of the patients and their families have opinions about that. You’d better leave. As for the remaining hospitalization fees, just forget ab
“Dario Moore, if you work for me, I’ll find someone to cure your younger sister’s legs.” Harvey York did not say much nonsense. He stood up directly and stopped Tyson Woods. Dario looked at Harvey in disdain. He then said, “Do you think that I’ll believe you since you said so?” Harvey took out a name card which he had prepared earlier and threw it at Dario. He then said lightly, “This is Dr. Ella Graves’ name card. Give her a call. She’ll arrange for the surgery and the best ward for your sister. Don’t worry about the medical expenses. It’s all on me.” “How did you arrange this? Are you lying to me?” Dario was filled with disbelief. The doctor was the vice president of Niumhi Hospital, and she was a truly distinguished person. A person like that would never perform a surgery on a person if the surgery did not cost more than one hundred fifty thousand dollars. ‘How is this guy before me able to resolve such a big issue? Is he that capable?’ The most important thing was that Dar
Thinking of that, Zack Zimmer’s facial expression became extremely unpleasant. “No, I can’t let Mandy Zimmer have her way. What if she truly divorces him successfully? Then she’ll have the chance to compete for the post with me. No way! I must think of a resolution!” Zack frowned slightly.“That’s easy. You just tell Grandpa that it’s a critical time for us now given our cooperation with York Enterprise. We can’t afford to have any kinds of issues here in the Zimmers. Then you can ask Grandpa to prohibit them from having a divorce. That will do, isn’t it?” Quinn Zimmer said smugly. She felt that her idea was tremendously good. “That’s reasonable!” Zack breathed a sigh of relief. However, the way he looked at Quinn was slightly vigilant now. ‘It seems like this woman is not to be trifled with. I need to keep my guard up around her in the future.’ ***Harvey York did not see Mandy when he reached home. However, he saw Lilian Yates sitting in the living room with a solemn facial e
There was a blurry photograph on the phone. But it was indeed the photograph of Harvey York and Ella Graves when they were together that night, and it was snapped by someone else secretly. Harvey was helpless. He then thought about Zack Zimmer’s attitude that day, and he soon figured it out. It might be Zack who snapped that photograph and specially sent it to Mandy Zimmer. “What more do you have to say? The truth is here right before us. Do you still want to deny it?” Harvey kept quiet, and he did not have any intention to defend himself. Seeing that, Mandy was filled with despair at that moment. The reason she let Harvey take a look at the phone was to give him a chance to explain himself. But Harvey said nothing in the end. “Darling, it’s nothing like how you imagined it to be…” Harvey sighed and said. “Then what is it? Tell me!” Mandy said coldly. He treated Ella to a meal, and asked her to do him a favor in resolving the issue regarding Dario’s younger sister. But th
“You must not keep this kind of man with you. Daughter, as long as you divorce him, I’ll find a good and obedient son-in-law who is so much better than him!”“Besides, he might have gotten some kind of strange disease. What if you get it from him? It’s so frightening!” Lilian Yates patted her chest ceaselessly, and she appeared quite frightened as she thought about that. If there was indeed such a scandal, Senior Zimmer would certainly disown their entire family and kick them out of the Zimmers. “Try to think about it. Zack Zimmer is now worried about not having the chance to bring you down! If ever he knows of this incident, he’ll certainly have another excuse to find faults with you!“It’s not easy for you to gain such a status in the Zimmers now. You can’t ruin your future just because of a man who’s just a worthless piece of trash!”“Mom, stop talking!” Mandy Zimmer was quite vexed at that moment. At one point, she thought about how Ella Graves looked at Harvey York. At a
In the study, Harvey York slept on the floor. He was filled with helplessness. He could understand Mandy Zimmer’s feelings. If it was him, he might not be so calm either.Besides, his unreliable mother-in-law might have made things worse secretly, exaggerating the facts. That incident would definitely be much more troublesome now. ***The next day during breakfast time, Harvey prepared breakfast early in the morning since he wanted to please Mandy. But Mandy did not even eat the breakfast he prepared. She just tore off the divorce agreement in front of him. Harvey frowned and said nothing since he knew that it would not be over so easily. As expected, Mandy said coldly, “I can forget about the divorce for the time being. But you need to promise me one thing.” “What is it? I’ll promise you.” Harvey said swiftly. “You didn’t even ask me what it is. But you promised me so soon. Aren’t you afraid that I may ask you to go and do some illegal things?” Mandy was slightly touch
"I'll give you ten minutes to walk out of there without your clothes on! If you do that, I won't kill anymore of your bodyguards. If you're still not here in ten minutes, then I'm sorry, but the flames will consume you. I'll remember to visit you at your grave next year!" Sora laughed strangely after that.Everyone who heard his laughter could only feel a chill in their bones as they felt disgusted. Mandy's expression became even darker. She did not refuse him immediately, though. While she knew he was playing a game of cat and mouse, those ten minutes might just be enough to save them.-At the same time. Outside of the manor. Sora and his group of confidantes had already arrived at the entrance of the manor. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the terrace. After he waved his hands, his confidante spread out and sealed the remaining entrances.Next to Sora was a swordsman with a mustache. His eyes were full of spirit. It was obvious that he was an elite, the kind who could crush al
"Watch out!" It was at this time when Seven suddenly pulled Mandy over to the side, as his expression darkened. At the same time, one of the pieces of ballistic glass shook and fell on the floor. Then, bolts that seemed like rain stormed into the terrace, falling right where Mandy was standing.If it was not because of Seven's quick actions, Mandy might have already become a human pincushion. She was immediately covered in cold sweat. While she had personally grown and become a successful businesswoman, she had never been in many of these kinds of life and death situations.Whoosh!It was as if the people outside had noticed an opening, they continuously fired the Repeating Crossbow. As they did that, one of the bodyguards who could not dodge in time collapsed on the ground as he held his thigh. A bolt pierced through his thigh, and he immediately lost his ability to fight.Mandy quickly said, "Quick! Drag him over! It's too dangerous over there!"The two bodyguards trembled, and
"Ms. Mandy, you should run now! Run from the back! I can still hold them up for about 15 minutes!" Seven said in a bitter voice as he peeked outside from the door's gap from inside the manor. "If you don't, we won't be able to escape once they rush in. We're almost out of ammo. If we don't fight our way out, we'll all end up dead!"Mandy hesitated a little when she saw how Seven was becoming somewhat concerned and said, "Sure. We'll leave from the back door. But they're here for me. I can't escape. All of you should go and I'll cover you!"Mandy's expression was resolute. Seven was slightly stunned before saying, "Don't joke about something like that, Ms. Mandy. While I'm not one of your followers, but as a bodyguard of the Jeans of Mor'du, there's no way I can escape before you have safely retreated. If I do that, not only will I be unable to face the family, but I also won't be able to face myself and stay in this world!"All the bodyguards exchanged looks and said, "That's right,
The young man in the white suit was not that old. He was at least in his mid-twenties. However, his cheeks were somewhat red. It was obvious that years of excessive drinking and womanizing have left him too depleted for anything to be able to help him. But even then, he still looked in front with greed and obsession, as if wanting to push the woman in the manor to the ground and tear her apart.It was obvious that this man was the scion of the Origin Sword Style, Sora Yamamoto.Sora did not think much about the death of the Origin Sword Style elites. He did not even feel much about their death, as if their death had nothing to do with him."Sir, it's not that the woman is strong. It's the simple fact that no one expected her to have the Royal Flush with her… And she has plenty of it too. From the results of us testing her, the woman isn't saving the Royal Flush for something else when she had her bodyguards use them. I suspect that she had an unlimited supply of it.""You idiot!" S
"Too weak," Harvey sighed. In the next instant, he lifted his right foot and planted it on a broken piece of rock. Instantly, the rock shot out and headed straight to Sverker's throat. It was obvious that Harvey did not wish to leave the Origin Sword Style's number one elite alive."You fool…!" Sverker's entire soul was shuddering as he could feel Death coming for him. He let out a roar and all the energy within his body started to flow, wanting to use that to stop Harvey's attack. However, his thoughts were faster than he could act.The moment he wanted to fight back, he could feel the taste of blood in his mouth. The small rock had already pierced through his throat. In that instant, Sverker's thoughts instantly stopped as he lost the strength to struggle. Then, he collapsed on the ground just like that.There was anger, despair, and even doubt in his eyes.He could not believe that as an elite of the Origin Sword Style, as one of the few most powerful men in Sky Plane, how he en
When the palm strike was going to reach Sverker, Harvey changed his palm strike into a finger strike. He flicked his finger at the edge of the blade.Clank!"Gah!"Sverker seemed shocked as his body shook. There was even blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was in a terrible state as he took a few steps back."Mr. Sverker!" All the women cried out at the same time, with shocked expressions. They could not believe that not only did Harvey manage to easily block the legendary Three Slashes, but most importantly he was able to force Sverker some distance back with just the flick of his finger!He was beyond terrifying!"Damn you, kid! Do you think this is my full power?" Sverker's temper was at boiling point after the continuous failures as he gritted his teeth. "I will send you to Hell with all three slashes fused into one!""I better be the one sending you to Hell. I'm already bored with your sword technique," replied Harvey casually. Before Sverker could even attack,
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
