“You…”Cory York was boiling with anger before abruptly leaving while coldly glaring at Harvey York.Harvey chuckled. Cory had lost his reputation within the company.It would only be a matter of time before Queenie York took over his place.***“That b*stard!”Inside the office building at Victoria Harbor, Cory still could not manage to calm himself down.The teacup in his hand trembled vigorously. Apparently, he was still enraged.His gaze then shifted toward Vince York before he coldly exclaimed, “I told you so many times already, Vince! Don’t go for Fourth Brother’s people willy-nilly, especially Selena Judd!“Fourth Brother treasures that woman the most!“Whatever you do, don’t ever go against her!“But what happened? Not only did you provoke her, you even got Fourth Brother angry! Now he’s releasing her exceptional daughter just to fight you!“What are you planning to do?!“It’s only five days before the damn birthday banquet!“I can’t believe you got into this big
After coldly looking at Cory York, Lexie York then spoke, “You’re saying Vince York and I are responsible for your loss?“Because we didn’t provide you the right info, so you suffered as a result?”“That’s not what I mean,” Cory coldly replied.“I’m only saying that if we had the right info, we might have the upper hand this time.“At this point, it’s useless blaming anyone.“We can only blame that b*stard for being so calculating and that b*tch for conspiring with the enemy!”“This is my fault, Father.”Vince, who had been dead silent the entire time, finally spoke up. He walked toward Cory and bowed slightly.“I underestimated both Harvey and Queenie.“I thought that a woman who only knew how to kill could be ordered around only after being in the Loxus Consortium…“But this isn’t what I expected to happen.“Both Harvey and Queenie are challenging to deal with after all!“I know there’s still rage in your heart, but you and Auntie shouldn’t be arguing right now.“This is
While Vince York was telling everyone his master plan, a call from Las Vegas got Harvey York up from his afternoon nap.Harvey was quite surprised after seeing the number.The King of Gambling, Fabian Hamilton, said that he was going to put the casino license of Mordu’s Casino Palace under Harvey’s name, but it never happened…And since Harvey’s relationship with the Hamilton family improved, everyone was considered to be on the same side. The situation was left up in the air because of it…But after getting Fabian’s call, Harvey had a bad feeling about this…After all, Fabian would never give Harvey a call for no reason.When the phone rang the second time, Harvey then picked up the call.A long sigh could be heard from the other side of the phone, as if Harvey was going to realize something. The sound abruptly stopped before Harvey listened to a hearty laugh.“It’s been some time since you contacted me, Sir York!“Did you have too much fun in Hong Kong? Las Vegas is your tur
Fabian Hamilton’s words were filled with helplessness, dreariness, and a lot of resentment…“My family rose for many years. We were called the kings of Las Vegas, but I didn’t expect I’d get beaten so badly at such an old age…“But don’t worry. Even if we lose that casino license, I’ll get another one to replace it for you.“You deserve it after all.”Fabian tried to maintain his dignity within his words. He seemed like he needed help, but he still held onto the pride of his family with all his might.Harvey York burst out laughing before showing a serious look on his face.“Alright, Fabian. I’m done joking around.“Be honest with me, is the person you’re gambling against a tough one?”“He is, but we should be able to handle him…”Fabian went silent for a long while before saying those words.But after he did not hear Harvey’s response, he bitterly chuckled.“Right. I’ll be honest. He’s really tough.“He came three times already. He only plays three rounds every time to det
After pondering over the situation for a moment, Harvey York quietly asked, “What’s his background?”Fabian Hamilton naturally had already figured it out beforehand.“It’s pretty extraordinary. He’s a nephew of the Leo family from The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets, and also the commander of the Knights Templar, Mateo Leo.”Harvey froze. The country and the Knights Templar seemed familiar, but it was his first time hearing that name.“Be more specific.”“The Leo family from The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets was a branch separated from Hong Kong’s main family back then.“It’s said that the acting young master of the family is Jason Leo. This man was once the head of the Four Masters of Hong Kong. His tactics and methods are all quite outstanding.“Mateo is his best subordinate of them all.”“Jason, Mateo, and the Leo family…”Harvey leaked a smile after a moment of muttering to himself.“I’ll head over there soon. Let me have a look at the surveillance footage.”Judgin
Harvey York took a sip of the cup of water on the table while having someone adjust the cameras to face Mateo Leo.At that moment, his warm smile put Harvey in deep thought.At the same time, inside VIP room one, Mateo nodded to the people around him after he sat down before looking at the dealer with a faint smile.“Thank you for tonight, Miss.“Please tell your boss that the rules will remain the same as the past few nights.“You can bring whoever you want to challenge me.“You may also change players in the middle of the game.”Mateo’s tone was extremely gentle. No aggression of any sort could be heard from his words, as if he was just a kind man living next door.Not only would this make a good impression on the spectators, but even the staff members were quite fond of him.After all, compared to those rich people with a lot of money who burst out in anger after losing…Mateo was a breath of fresh air to those people.Sitting in the surveillance room, Harvey calmly said,
According to the deal, there was still one round left to play.Even though the Hamilton family had a chance to make a comeback, they had already lost.They could make the casino-palace look a little better if they won at least one round.But if they lost all three rounds, the Great Gambler would have his reputation completely tarnished once and for all.Fabian Hamilton showed a horrible expression after seeing that they were destined to lose again.“Sir York, did you see anything amiss?” he whispered.Harvey York frowned, adjusted a few surveillance cameras, then told the others to focus on the dealer and the middle-aged man.On the huge screen, three faces were shown side by side. Compared to Mateo’s calm demeanor, the other two were so nervous that cold sweat dripped down their necks.Fabian was terribly worried after seeing the sight. If they were to lose this round, the casino license would not only be a part that they would lose…Losing fifteen rounds in a row would be ex
“That’s why I said this is mild hypnosis,” replied Harvey York calmly.“Hypnotism tricks like these were used by the Knights Templar on their own and considered to be a sacred art.“The goal is simple. It’s used to tell themselves that they are the Knights Templar and they’re invincible with the power of the holy light.“To a certain degree, this was able to increase their strength.“A human’s mental state would hugely affect them.“If they believe they’re invincible, they’d naturally be more terrifying than ordinary knights.“And if I guess correctly, this commander here must’ve mastered mild hypnosis.“He doesn’t need to take complete control of his opponent. All he needs to do is to make him feel like he’ll lose!“Along with his gambling skills, he’d naturally be unbeatable against an opponent who’s already lost all confidence.”It was Fabian Hamilton’s first time hearing such a thing, but he quickly understood.Psychological suggestions would definitely have a significant
