A female staff member couldn't hold back her feelings.“Hong Kong is our place! You Islanders don’t have a right to show off here!”“Ha? You dare talk back at me, you b*tch?!”The secretary shot the staff member a cold glare.“We don’t have a right? Us Islanders have a powerful status! Ishikawa Corporation has products sold all over the world! With just a single word, we can blacklist your company entirely!”“What did you say?”“Are you angry?”“Hit me, then!”“Hit me already!”“I’ll be impressed if you can actually do that!”The secretary moved her face toward the female staff member to provoke the latter.Slap!Harvey took a step forward and sent the secretary flying with a hard slap.“I’ve never heard of such a strange request. You all heard it here first. She was the one who asked me to hit her.”“I’ve hit you now. What are the consequences?”The arrogant-looking secretary smashed right into the ground after being sent flying by Harvey’s painful slap. Her orifices bl
“This is my fault, Secretary Akina. This all happened because of me.”“Whether you want to sue or arrest someone, I’ll take all the blame.”Olivia was a little frightened, but she still raised her head up in front of Taichi and the rest of the Islanders.“This has nothing to do with the company, nor does it have anything to do with this young man!”“You have no say in that! The company has no right to butt in either.”“Even if Cory or Vince comes, they have no say either!”Taichi finally spoke at this very moment. He waved his hand, signaling his secretary to calm herself.He then crossed his arms and took a step forward, displaying the full extent of his scummy demeanor. “Only I have the final say in the matter!”Taichi slept with quite a lot of celebrities from small countries, and had threatened a lot more women during his trips to negotiate in place of Ishikawa Corporation. He was even sworn brothers with some of the oil princes in the Middle East.Safe to say that wher
Secretary Akina was crying while she talked on the phone, putting on a helpless look as if she had suffered quite a bit. It was quite the pitiful sight.But immediately after she hung up, her cold and distant look reappeared in an instant.“Just you wait! How dare you hit me?!”“When Master York’s here, he’ll deal with you first!”“Let me warn you: none of you can get out unscathed today!”With immense support behind Secretary Akina’s back, she felt she was invincible.Before Harvey could say anything, Olivia already cut him off with a frightened look on her face.“Forget it! We can’t escalate things any further!”“We’ll get fired if we do!”Olivia didn’t know who Taichi and the others called, but a person called Master York could only be from the Yorks of Hong Kong.She was certain if someone from the family were to come, not only would she be in trouble, but Harvey and Queenie would also be dragged into the situation!As a woman from Hong Kong, she understood full well wha
Olivia and the staff’s expressions changed upon Stephen’s arrival.Stephen would usually show up on entertainment magazines and financial news.Naturally, they knew who he was.None of them expected an affluent figure like Stephen would come here after a single call.Secretary Akina was exhilarated to see Stephen’s arrival. She stumbled her way toward him with a pitiful look, as if she had been wronged.“Look at me, Master York! My dermal fillers are about to burst!”“Loxus Consortium has crossed a line! They have to take responsibility!”Secretary Akina was on the verge of tears as she aired her grievances.Stephen’s face was aloof.“What a great job you’re doing here, Loxus Consortium!” he exclaimed coldly.“Don’t you know that Young Master Ishikawa and the Islanders are Young Lord York’s important guests?”“Yet, you dare hit one of Young Lord York’s guests? Looks like there’s no easy way out of this!”“Whoever did it, kneel and apologize to Young Master Ishikawa! Break y
Harvey laughed, calm.“Just ask Stephen if I have a death wish.”“Ha! Are you still pretending?”Secretary Akina chuckled coldly.“I don’t know where you came from, but how dare you show off in front of Master York! Do you want to die?”“Right! It’s useless! No matter how powerful you are, you’ll be trampled to death for provoking Young Lord York’s important guests!”“Let me tell you something right now! Get the new executive CEO here this instant!”“Tell her she’ll be taken out of her position if she doesn’t show up in three minutes!”“Shut up!”Stephen came to his senses right there and then.His furious scream stunned the people behind him. A second later, they were exhilarated. Stephen was enraged. He was boiling with anger!He was ready to crush someone!“Do you need help, Master York? My hand’s been itching lately. This kept man…”Slap!Stephen swung his back palm across the follower who spoke before adding with a wretched-looking face, “I told you to shut up! Did
Yukiko was a direct descendant of the Ishikawa family. She had been the representative of the Island Nation Embassy in Mordu.She was considered to be the most outstanding person in the younger generation of the family.Her identity could suppress anyone who dared to oppose her. If anyone went against her, they would be going against the Island Nations as a whole.If that was the case, a diplomatic affair would occur.While Taichi was dialing the number, he was extremely proud of himself.Harvey found the name familiar. He barely recalled the time he slapped Yukiko in the face back in Mordu.If it weren’t for Taichi, Harvey wouldn’t even remember such a small fry.Harvey had no intention to stop the call, though. He waited calmly for Taichi to finish.The call got through soon after.Taichi turned on the speakers. A distant yet alluring tone could be heard throughout the entire room.“Who is it?”Taichi’s body trembled as he grew ecstatic.“It’s me, Representative Ishikawa!
“Harvey York?!”Yukiko on the other side of the phone froze before losing her voice.“B-Branch Leader York?”“That’s right,” Harvey calmly replied.The phone was dead silent. Yukiko was completely shocked.As the representative of the Island Nation Embassy, she had access to more information compared to others.For example, she knew that the Shinkage Way’s Sword Saint, Miyata, was killed by Harvey.The Shindan Way’s Akio was forced to flee by Harvey as well.These incidents alone were enough to make Yukiko understand that this man was far more frightening compared to the time he was in Mordu.The Island Nations even warned her not to provoke Harvey again, unless it was absolutely necessary.After all, they hadn’t come up with a plan to deal with Harvey just yet.Going against Harvey willy-nilly would only bring them ruin.A hint of flattery and shyness could be heard from Yukiko’s initially cold and distant tone.“I’m so sorry, Branch Leader York. I had no idea we offended
Early in the morning the next day, Harvey was informed about the Loxus Consortium’s meeting after waking up in the garden villa.When Queenie brought Harvey to the company’s meeting room, it was completely full.Aside from Dante and several higher ups, there were a few other people there.The person sitting in the middle was none other than the head of the head house, the CEO and chairman of the Loxus Consortium, Cory York.He was Vince’s father, and was also quite the big character within the family itself.After seeing Cory’s arrival, Queenie frowned.She felt a sense of hostility that she had never experienced before.Harvey didn’t feel anything, however. He casually greeted everyone around him without showing much emotion.“Morning, everyone. Are you all here to witness someone’s hand breaking today?”“That’s him, Chairman! He’s Harvey York!”Before Cory and the others could speak even a word, Dante stood up and pointed furiously at Harvey.“Queenie ruined my chances to
