“Good boy! What a good boy!”Lilian Yates seemed quite happy while sizing up Joseph Bauer. After thinking of the luxurious gift that Joseph gave previously, Lilian was more and more satisfied with her future son-in-law.She immediately pulled Mandy Zimmer out of the car.“To show you our appreciation, I’ve decided to go to Flutwell with you and my daughter.”“Of course. I’ll look forward to it…”Joseph’s eyes lit up instantly. After getting word that the Knights of the Round Table were planning to assassinate Mandy, he came here as quickly as possible.As he expected, this was an opportunity.“Come! Protect CEO Zimmer and her family!“From now on, they’re important guests of mine!“Whoever tries to lay a finger on my important guests will die without their bodies intact!”Mandy did not even have the strength left to let out a sigh. She wanted to decline Joseph’s so-called invitation, but she could not even utter a single word at that moment.After all, Joseph did bring his m
After listening to Edwin Mendoza, Harvey York nodded lightly before looking at his documents again.“So, what’s up with this Joseph Bauer guy?”After scrolling through the phone for a moment, Edwin then softly replied, “Joseph Bauer is the thirteenth descendant of the Bauer family, one of the top ten families of Country H. Everyone calls him the Thirteenth Young Master Bauer.“It’s also said that he’s one of the top candidates to become the head of his family.“There are two other candidates besides him, the eldest young master, Jeff Bauer, and the seventh young master, Harold Bauer.”Harvey frowned.“That’s it?”“Of course not. Throughout history, the head of the Bauer family always assumed another identity, the master of Longmen,” replied Edwin.“It’s the same for this generation as well.“Simply put, no matter who rises to power, other than becoming the head of the family, they’ll also be sitting on the Longmen’s throne.“That’s why these young masters had constantly been
Edwin Mendoza did not have to continue further. Harvey York knew exactly what was going to happen after that.Lilian Yates knew that Joseph Bauer was filthy rich, and he was interested in Mandy Zimmer. Judging from Lilian’s greed and narrow mind, since she thoroughly despised Harvey, she would do everything in her power to get Joseph and Mandy together.“Did you contact Travis Hunt? How strong is Joseph?” Harvey asked another question after thinking about the situation.Edwin bitterly chuckled.“Commander Hunt said that he couldn’t figure out Joseph, and he had quite a few Kings of Arms accompanying him at the moment.“There was no hostility from him, so he left as soon as he was done with his job as you asked.”Harvey nodded. He did not want anyone to know that he had a connection with Travis.But if he explained the situation to Mandy and the others, Lilian would think that Travis showed up with ill intent.At this point, Lilian must have treated Joseph like her son-in-law.
“Mandy…”A cold chuckle could be heard from the other side of the phone immediately after Harvey York spoke.It was not Mandy Zimmer’s tender voice at all. It was Lilian Yates’s unbearably sarcastic and evil tone that was heard.“Harvey, right?“I knew you’d call sooner or later, you shameless b*stard!“You’re going to tell me that you knew all about the attack and sent someone to protect us, right?”“It all happened though, didn’t it?” replied Harvey.“I don’t believe you, Harvey.“You don’t have to keep pretending! I know exactly what happened!”Lilian chuckled coldly.“You’re getting pretty damn cocky recently!“If nobody told me that you provoked The Empire’s fourth princess, why would a bunch of knights even come at me in the first place?! You almost got the better of me!“How are you this damn useless?!“You can’t deal with your own problems, yet you push them all to your wife?!“You even got an innocent woman like me involved!“Let me tell you something! I know ex
After hanging up the phone, Harvey York dialed another number. Edwin Mendoza showed up soon after.“Did you figure it out?”Edwin nodded.“I did. The people had mysterious identities and were already whitewashed through different sources. That’s why we don’t have enough evidence to prove anything here.“But, we can confirm that they’re from the Knights Templar. The man leading the group must be from the Knights of the Round Table.“The fourth princess probably planned the attack.“She has no way to go against our people in Hong Kong and Las Vegas, so she’s trying to threaten you using your wife.“What should we do now?”Harvey stood up before calmly replying, “I expected as much from her.“She’s not the type of woman to sit still.“She’s trying to divert our attention.“She didn’t manage to learn our manners, yet she mastered our art of war. What a shame…”Edwin frowned.“So…”Harvey smiled.“She has her strategies. I have my ways to deal with them,” replied Harvey calml
“So what if they’re strong?”The fourth princess was showing a horrible expression at this moment.“I made sure that Mandy Zimmer’s defenses were the weakest.“And other than us, there were also other people who were planning to get their hands on her.“How did we even fail if that was the case?!“There’s just no way!“The Knights of the Round Table are elites of the Knights Templar!“They have the strength of a thousand men each! They’re peak Kings of Arms! How could they have failed?!“It should be effortless to take Mandy down!”Unbridled anger could be heard in the words of the fourth princess.“Call them again! Tell them that I want to see Mandy, dead or alive!“If they still won’t give me any new information, I’ll show them my wrath!”The secretary nodded before swiftly dialing a number.After making a few phone calls, his expression worsened when he cautiously walked to the fourth princess’ side.“We have word, Princess. The mission failed.“The Knights Templar we
“We need to have patience to accomplish big things, Princess! You’re the one who taught us that! Please don’t do anything reckless…” exclaimed the secretary while covering his face.Slap!The fourth princess swung the back of her palm across the secretary’s face before coldly screaming, “You think I need you to teach me how to do things?!“Send word right now!“Even if you’re a little slow, I’ll feed you to the fishes!”The secretary stumbled his way out of the place as loud engines could be heard from outside the villa.Soon after, the sound of cars ramming past the steel gates could be heard.The villa was in utter chaos.The guards immediately rushed outside to the front gate.“Damnit! Don’t they know what this place is?!”“How dare they do something like this in the fourth princess’ place?! They must have a death wish!”The fourth princess froze before she furiously stood up. After picking up an exquisite firearm from the table, she coldly exclaimed, “Is it that b*stard,
“Noble princess, I came here because I’ve been personally requested by the duke.“Since the royal family’s reputation was involved, the royal family’s crest was handed to me to handle the situation! Having the family crest is the same as seeing the duke himself!”The duke was The Empire’s head of the ministry of internal affairs and was the equivalent of being the queen’s steward. His status was quite immense, and his words held enormous weight.His status within The Empire was a lot greater compared to the prime minister.Even the fourth princess could not help but gasp after hearing those words. At this moment, the fourth princess knew that Marquis Dunkirk had come to visit for a pretty dire situation.She kept on thinking about why he would come at such a crucial time. Maybe Country H had already sent a letter to The Empire to force them to give up the person who orchestrated Mordu’s incident.Without a second thought, the fourth princess said, “Marquis Dunkirk, if you’re worr
