“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
The entire casino palace was going wild.Everyone witnessed the Hamilton family lose another ten percent of their casino license.If Mateo Leo kept winning, the Mordu Casino Palace would have a new owner in no time.Inside the surveillance room, Fabian Hamilton was showing a horrible expression.Harvey York came to his senses. He finally understood every single detail.Mateo snapped his fingers to use his hypnotism, making his opponent feel like he was going to lose. That way, he would be able to use the change to beat down the Hamilton family completely.“What a plan, Mateo!”Fabian took a deep breath and stood up.“Thank you for your guidance, Sir York. According to the rules in Las Vegas, people who cheat must have their fingers cut off.“Mateo cheated for five straight days at this point. I should get someone to chop his hand off by now.”Fabian spoke in a cold tone while showing an extremely scornful expression filled with murderous intent. This was the true face of the
According to Harvey York’s plan, he wanted Fabian Hamilton to be Mateo Leo’s opponent next.Fabian did not meet Mateo on his own. Instead, he welcomed Mateo to continue challenging the Mordu Casino Palace via various social platforms.At the same time, the Hamilton family had already prepared their experts for the next battle.The entirety of Las Vegas was in an uproar after hearing the news.After all, the King of Gambling had not shown up in the media for many years.Fabian announced the news for two purposes…Number one. To show everyone that the Hamilton family was not directly related to the incident. That way, the family would look a little better on the outside.Number two. The Hamilton family was ready for battle.Simply put, if the Hamilton family were to win in the next match, all doubt about the family would dissipate instantly.And if they were to lose, the Hamilton family and the King of Gambling’s reputation would be marred forever.In Harvey’s eyes, a simple ba
“For you, you might’ve only rejected Young Master Leo’s generosity.“But for him, he might just see this as a declaration of war.“You’re a brilliant lady. You, of all people, should know that the world’s financial hub isn’t in Coupeville, America. It’s in Walsh, from The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets.“If you provoke Young Master Lee, who has full authority of Walsh…“You know exactly what sort of disasters you’ll bring to this company and the Yorks of Hong Kong.“Think wisely, Miss York.”Mateo Leo smiled while giving Queenie York a friendly reminder.“Besides, you’re just an executive CEO.“You can reject Young Master Leo out of your own volition, but do you think your decision represents the whole company and your family?“I do hope that you consider. It’s not advisable for you to outright reject the offer.“This way, we’ll both make compromises with each other. Am I right?”Mateo showed a faint smile. He was obviously making threats, but it sounded like he was doing
“Didn’t I tell you already?! I refuse!“Get out of here!”Queenie York was still in a state of rage. After seeing someone push the door open, she instantly lashed out.“This is how you treat someone who got you this position, Executive CEO York?”Harvey lightly chuckled.Queenie came to her senses and took a deep breath to calm herself down.“Sorry. I thought you were…”“There’s no need for that,” said Harvey while smiling.“I was just outside.“What? Someone’s already coming for you just after a few days as the executive CEO?”Harvey intentionally left out the conversation to give Queenie some personal space.Queenie had no intention to hide it, though. After heaving a huge sigh, she said, “Since you’re outside, you must’ve heard what happened, right?“Mateo Leo is Jason Leo’s most trusted subordinate. Do you know him?”“I’ve only heard of him, but not really,” replied Harvey calmly.Queenie frowned for a moment.“Jason was the most legendary person within Hong Kong and
Harvey York frowned.“The lord of the family too?”Queenie York shook her head.“My father would never agree to this.“After all, married daughters are lost forever. Once the marriage between Jason and I goes through, I’ll have to give up my authority within the family once and for all…“But since the cost of canceling the marriage is too high, Grandma York would surely refuse.“My father would always respect his elders…”Queenie was worried. She knew that this would be hard to deal with.“This time, the marriage will most likely go through.“Wealthy families have no feelings toward each other. Besides, I’m just an adopted daughter.”Harvey frowned.“Judging from the current situation, you might not be their target. Instead, they might be going for Lord York,” said Harvey calmly.“Lord York is using you to keep Vince York down.“Vince is then taking drastic measures to get Jason Leo back.“What a great plan!”Queenie froze slightly after hearing Harvey’s words before gri
Aurora Parker, Durin’s well-known celebrity, was revealed to have a green card of The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets!At the same time, she also uploaded quite a popular video.The contents of the video were simple. Aurora was shamelessly praising The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets.Harvey York clicked on the video and saw Aurora in traditional clothing while showing her beautiful face on screen.The celebrity, who became famous because of Durin, fluently spoke in The Empire’s language while showing a warm smile.“Recently, fans have been asking me why I decided to get a green card from The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets.“This is what I tell everyone.“To smell a breath of freedom.“Five days ago, when I stepped out of the plane…“I prepared five masks and was about to wear one.”“But when I took a breath of air there…“I left my mask!“The air here is filled with freedom! It was just refreshing!“This strange luxury is what brought me to get the green card!”A
A few bodyguards in black suits stopped Harvey York and Queenie York in their path with serious expressions.A few couples and tourists were stopped as well.In front of the bodyguards, a woman in a white uniform coldly glanced at Harvey and the other.“Miss Parker is dining right now. None of you may enter.“Because of you people, her mood might get affected.“When she’s all done, you people may enter only then.”Those bossy words were filled with utter righteousness, as if she was used to doing those things.Harvey sized up the group of people and calmly asked, “Are you the boss or the manager here?”“Neither,” replied the woman coldly after hearing Harvey’s question.“So, did Miss Parker book out the entire restaurant?” Harvey questioned curiously.“Are you braindead or something?“Don’t you know that we’d need at least hundreds and thousands of dollars to do that?!“Do you think we’re idiots?!”The woman in white stared at Harvey, as if he was a clown.“We’re not payi
