“How dare you?!”“Do you want to die?!”“The two of you have a death wish or something?! How dare you speak to our commander like that?!”“F*cking b*tches!”Before Jason Leo could even speak, the subordinates behind him were already boiling with anger.In their eyes, Jason was everything to them. How could they even bear their master being insulted like this?Jason waved his hand at his subordinates with a faint smile.“There’s no need to get mad at two ignorant young women.“It’s fine. Soon enough, they’ll do exactly as I say.“This isn’t the first time something like this has happened anyway.”The people of the Knights Templar were all laughing in unison after hearing Jason’s words.They were reminded of all those fierce women being violated by their commander before being turned into slaves on the battlefield. They had no other choice but to follow Jason’s every single order.The thought of two ladies from wealthy families turning into slaves was simply exhilarating.Ja
A dozen people in traditional clothing showed up from outside the hall.Those people were westerners showing utterly condescending expressions.They were surrounding a cold and aloof woman who seemed to be of mixed race.The woman was wearing a gown with a laurel on her head studded with gems and gold. She seemed like she was twenty-eight at most. She looked very elegant, but her dominant side was also quite apparent.Her fierce aura engulfed the entire room. She was none other than The Empire’s fourth princess.Every step she took, a terrifying aura could be felt exuding from her figure.Her cold gaze locked onto Toby Clarke before she coldly exclaimed, “Young Master Leo belongs to me. He’s the deputy commander of the Knights Templar. If you go against him, then you also go against me.“If you don’t apologize properly, I won’t let you off the hook.”Apparently, the fourth princess did not even remember the things Toby did for her. She treated Toby like a stray dog trying to cl
While the others were utterly shocked by the sight, Jason Leo seemed indifferent.After all, there were many people who would kneel in front of him anyway. It did not matter if Toby Clarke did the same or not.He calmly walked forward and crouched in front of Toby before tapping him in the face with a smile.“That’s no good, Governor Clarke.“Weren’t you about to shoot me just now? What? Are you just going to kneel after the fourth princess shows up?“Looks like The Empire’s higher-ups were correct! You wealthy people from Hong Kong are just servants of The Empire!“You people look decent, but you’ll kneel without a doubt if there’s a need to!“It’s really boring trampling on people like you, though…“Since you’re this hopeless, I’ll give you a chance! Shine my shoes, and I’ll forgive you! I’ll even give you a chance to talk!”Jason then took a step toward Toby, showing his leather shoe with a smile on his face.Leslie Clarke was trembling with unbridled rage after seeing the
“But you should know that Leo’s here to settle old scores.“Because of your past efforts and the fact that you kneeled right now, I can convince him to give you people a chance.“A chance to stop Hong Kong and Las Vegas from utter chaos.”Toby Clarke took a deep breath.“Very wise, Fourth Princess,” replied Toby quietly.“What are your conditions?”Toby would rather be humiliated than lose the chance…The chance to mediate the situation.“Number one. I want half of all four top families of Hong Kong’s assets. From fixed assets, and stocks, to your cash flow. I want half of all of it,” said the fourth princess calmly.“And don’t you dare say I’m asking for too much. If you people didn’t kick Leo out, his assets now would be way more than anyone ever imagined. He earned this.”Toby forced a smile out of his face.“As long as it’s something money can solve, it’s no big deal. I’ll accept it on behalf of the top four families of Hong Kong.”The fourth princess scoffed.“Number
Dinner time, at the Three Seasons Hotel rooftop garden.Harvey York had already prepared a lavish Hong Kong-style afternoon tea to welcome Toby Clarke, who was showing an extremely gloomy face at that moment.“Governor Clarke, a capable man can yield when needed, but your actions have shocked everyone here. There might be an uproar in Hong Kong soon enough.”Obviously, Harvey already knew about everything that transpired in the Leo family’s villa.Harvey had figured that something like this would happen.Jason Leo would never return to his country out of respect for Toby.As for Jason’s three conditions, Harvey did not deem those demands were too outrageous.Those were clearly Jason’s reasons for coming back this time. If he could accomplish his goals without a drop of blood spilled, he would hold back regardless of his murderous intent.“Don’t you know that outsiders keep calling us the Slave Family?”After getting a change of clothes, Toby showed a faint smile.“Before I re
Harvey York casually sipped his tea.“Perhaps Vince York planned this.“Maybe he knew about Jason Leo’s ambition and personality. That’s why he decided to do it this way.“He’s forcing us to fight Jason to the death.“That way, our strength will start to dwindle.“When that happens, he’ll just sit back and reach for the spoils while we go against each other. In the end, he’ll be the final victor.“So, what’s your plan?”Queenie York frowned.“How can we be the only ones hurting during such an entertaining event?”“Governor Clarke, start spreading the word everywhere.“You need to highlight the fact that Jason’s trying to take over the Yorks of Hong Kong as well. Make it catchy.“Make sure Vince can feel the danger as well.“Even if he manages to keep himself steady, I do want to see if the sly old foxes like Cory York and Noah York can do the same!”***While Harvey and the others were enjoying their dinner, Vince put down his laptop and gloomily stared into the corner of
“It’s implausible, but it’d be better if we keep our guard up regardless.”Lexie York showed a faint smile.“We know too much about Queenie York. There’s no way she’d even show any signs of weakness…“But if that b*stard, Harvey York, decides to take us down with him, we’ll be unprepared!”“Right!”Vince York let out a huge sigh.“That’s why we need to plan things ahead of time. If not, we’ll become the biggest laughing stock in Hong Kong and Las Vegas if we fail somehow.”Lexie pondered over the situation as she pressed down a piano key.“If that’s the case, all we can do right now is to fan the flames and get Harvey to fight Jason Leo!”“How do we do that?” asked Vince curiously.Bang!Lexie took out an invitation from her handbag and slammed it onto the table.“Right here.”Vince shifted his gaze and saw “King of Gambling Tournament” written on the invitation.“This is…”“According to my information, that b*stard, Harvey, will represent the Hamilton family in tomorrow
While everyone was brimming full with excitement, a few Toyota Centuries with license plates from Hong Kong slowly stopped at the entrance of the Mordu Casino-Palace.The people who knew the license plates were shocked. Those cars belonged to the Yorks of Hong Kong, and some of them were even Marcel York’s cars.Before the people could even come to their senses, a dozen strong men in suits walked out of the cars before they stood, making a line.Soon after, two young men with auras of upperclassmen then walked out.The young lord of the Yorks of Hong Kong, Vince York!And the baron of The Empire and the deputy commander of the Knights Templar, Jason Leo!After seeing the two come together, everyone was reminded why they were sworn brothers and that it was natural for them to walk together anyway.And behind the two, Mateo Leo led a group of people in traditional clothing. They must have been the people from the Knights Templar.“Have you assigned a notary yet, Young Master Leo?
