“Besides, it’s not like Young Lord York slandered you or anything. All he did was tell the truth. It’s for your own good, you know.”“Capturing Akio is an immense achievement, yes.”“But only Harvey would be able to do such a thing.”“If you get exposed for stealing someone else’s credit, you’ll be in deep trouble!”“You’ll risk the Islanders taking revenge against you and be scorned by the people!”“Don’t you think it’s dangerous?”“Young Lord York is only covering for you since you’re still young, Julian. There are still some things that you can’t handle on your own.”“Don’t think that he’s trying to keep you down here.”“This is all for your sake!”Everyone looked at Julian with haughty righteousness, as though they were in the right.By this point, they had already tied Julian down.Before Queenie showed up, some of these people might’ve had other motives.But after she showed up, she gained complete control over Hong Kong and Las Vegas.Aside from working under Vince,
Hong Kong, in the garden villa.Harvey York and the others were having breakfast together.After looking at the laptop, something piqued Harvey’s interest.“I don’t know if I should be asking this question or not, Lord York…“But, is Vince York braindead or something?“Why did the family even choose him to be the young lord in the first place?“Is the family trying to get themselves killed or what?”After looking at the news, without even verifying, Harvey could basically determine that Vince was the mastermind behind it.The only person who would describe such a story and push Harvey to the limelight and challenge the fragile Islanders was none other than Vince.He thought that the Islanders would use the opportunity to pursue Harvey while also ruining Julian York’s chance at climbing ranks. He could even sell the Islanders a pretty big favor because of this.This was three birds with one stone! An impressive tactic, to say the least.Marcel York let out a huge sigh after r
After sensing the sincerity in Selena Judd’s words, Harvey York showed a warm smile.“Don’t worry, Lady Judd.“The Shindan Way’s full of tricks, but I can handle it.“I already dealt with two Sword Saints. I’m sure I can handle the rest of them.“I don’t even mind going to Kyoto if they decide to provoke me again.“It’ll be quite the spectacle.”“Why are you treating him like he’s your own child, Mother?” exclaimed Queenie York.“I’m obviously in more danger right now!”Selena merely smiled.“I’m not worried about you even one bit! The Lord’s Guardians are constantly watching your back anyway.“If you’re still getting into trouble after that, I’ll have to question your father’s authority as the lord of the family.”Marcel York clapped his hands as he chuckled.“Alright. Since I asked Harvey to deal with the Islanders, that means that I’m convinced of his strength.“Unless they throw away their dignity and get the rest of those old fools here…“Harvey will be perfectly saf
While Marcel York and Selena Judd were admiring their potential future son-in-law, Harvey York quickly slipped away.He could run for the time being, but there was no escaping from the two.For his own safety, he had to stay in the garden villa for the next couple of days.The next day, early in the morning, the air outside felt refreshing after the rain last night.While taking a short walk, Harvey bumped into Queenie York, who was getting ready for her morning exercise. He then got on her four-wheeled scooter before they arrived at a private golf course not too far behind the garden villa.Queenie was wearing her golf shirt with a short skirt, along with sunglasses and knee socks, making her seem extremely attractive.When she brought Harvey to the golf course, a breath of fresh air blew right past them.Harvey picked up a golf club with a faint smile on his face.“I’m already in the front lines at this point, yet you’re still bringing me here for golf? Aren’t you afraid of g
Clap clap clap!“As expected from an expert like you, Sir York.“No wonder you’d dare defy Grandma York herself.“I just don’t know if you’re actually a formidable young man or just plain stupid.”A derisive tone could be heard.A few people were seen walking out of the forest.Those people were all wearing green long sleeve shirts while showing expressions as cold as ice.A skinny old man was standing in the very middle.The man had a pallid and clean-shaven face. He was playing with his fidget walnuts as he was squinting at Harvey, full of disdain.An arrogant and dominant aura could be clearly felt on him!“Manager York?!”Queenie’s expression changed slightly after seeing the man.“Who?” asked Harvey. He did not expect someone in Hong Kong would still dare act this domineering before him.That was why this person piqued his interest.A frown could be seen on Queenie’s beautiful face.“This is the servant of the previous lord of the family. He’s been serving under him
“You b*stard!“How dare you speak to Manager York like that?!”A man in a green shirt walked forward with a cold smirk on his face.“I’ll smack your mouth wide open!“I’m not worthy, you say?”Manager York took a step forward and calmly waved his hand, signaling his men to step back.Then, he crossed his arms as he glared at Harvey York.“I’m the manager of the Yorks of Hong Kong,” said Manager York slowly.“I’m the previous lord and Grandma York’s most trusted subordinate!”Harvey let out a chuckle. “I didn’t expect a mere servant could be this arrogant…” said Harvey, smiling warmly.“Though, I do want to ask!“What did I do for you to demand me to kneel?”Queenie York wanted to say something after seeing Harvey go against Manager York like that, but she immediately gave up after seeing his attitude…She understood her brother very well.Harvey was miffed.“What did you do?“Don’t you understand?”Manager York furiously stomped on the ground!Cracks were forming al
Harvey York calmly looked at Manager York and the others before he said, “I might have the same surname, but that doesn’t mean I’m a part of you people.“Your higher-ups mean nothing to me.“As for Grandma York…“Her words are absolute to you…“But, they don’t mean sh*t to me.“If you want to play pretend, just do it within the family.“Stop embarrassing yourself in public!”“Ignorant kid!” a man in a green shirt yelled while pointing at Harvey.“How dare you insult Grandma York?!“You’re finished!“God can’t save you now!“I’ll break your f*cking limbs!“I’ll make you understand what happens when you defy Grandma York!“You…”Slap!Before the man could even finish his words, Harvey already took a step forward and sent him flying off with a slap.Everyone went dead silent after seeing such a horrifying sight.The stewards under Manager York’s command had immense statuses in both Hong Kong and Las Vegas…They represented the authority of the Yorks of Hong Kong and the
Harvey York showed a calm look on his face while he spoke in a playful tone.Then, he brought out some tissues and started wiping his hands arrogantly.Manager York’s eyes were frantically twitching at this very moment.When he finally came to his senses, he furiously stomped his feet to the ground and yelled, “How dare you?!“Harvey York!“You arrogant b*stard!“You have the guts to hit the stewards of the family?!“These are Grandma York’s men here!“Do you even care about the Yorks of Hong Kong?!“Does Grandma York even matter to you?!”Harvey merely let out a chuckle.“Are you blind?“Didn’t you see them come at me first?“Disrespecting superiors is a sin for the Yorks of Hong Kong!“As the lord’s eminent guest, my status is absolute!“You can’t even figure that out as the manager of the family, and yet you’re here rambling to me about rules?”His gaze was as cold as ice then.“Or are you saying that you made up all those rules?“When it’s good for you, you’ll tal
