Wyatt Johnson had no intention to talk much nonsense. He threw the appointment document at Yvonne Xavier directly. “From today onward, whatever I say, goes here in this company. I hope that this is the last time she’s being slapped. If she’s disobedient, it won’t be as simple as only a slap next time around.” Yvonne took the document subconsciously. After she read the content of the document, she was stupefied on the spot. It was a document which was signed by the Yorks, and its content outlined the appointment of Wyatt as the CEO of York Enterprise...‘How… can this be possible?‘Wasn’t it Mr. York who just took up the post a few days ago? Besides, why did the Yorks appoint such an unknown trivial person to be the CEO? Isn’t it a joke?’“Where did you get this document? You should know about the consequences of forging a document, right?” Yvonne said with a deep voice. “Forging? Do I need to forge a document? You’re the CEO’s secretary. Can’t you differentiate the authentic
Yvonne Xavier’s expression turned sour. She was not a casual woman! Harvey York would have never said something like that.However, those words coming from someone like Wyatt Johnson infuriated Yvonne.She was barely restraining her anger as she said, “I’ve already contacted the York family to verify your identity, whether you are the new CEO or not. However, the titles of CEO and secretary are merely hierarchical relationships here, so please have some respect!”“Respect?” Wyatt smirked. ‘Sometimes, subduing a person is a very exciting process—Yvonne has a temper, so it’ll be interesting to make her yield.’Wyatt suddenly stood up from his chair and slammed the office door shut.Yvonne jumped, her heart pounding. “What do you think you’re doing, Wyatt Johnson?”“What do you think I’m doing?” Wyatt smiled creepily at Yvonne, and continued, “Didn’t I just tell you? I’m free right now, and isn’t this normal anyway?”Yvonne was shocked—she did not know Wyatt was this shameless. She
“Get away from me! Don’t touch me!”“You’d rather submit to force than accept my request, huh?” Wyatt slapped Yvonne across her face and pulled her hair roughly.Yvonne let out a pained cry, and Wyatt became more excited. The old witch had been tormenting him these past few days—his dignity had been thrown to the ground and stepped on over and over again.At that moment, he felt like he had gotten his pride as a man back.“Looks like the last CEO didn’t get it on with you, hmm? Well, I’ll be happy to take that opportunity!”Wyatt felt so powerful that he did not care about the consequences. He was the CEO of York Enterprise, what was the worst that could happen from sleeping with a secretary?Yvonne kept struggling, and her screams echoed throughout the office.Wendy Sorell was on her way to the office to report her progress after handling her matters at the main hall. She heard Yvonne’s screams and rushed to the office, swinging open the door. She gasped at the sight before her
“Do it then if you’re that capable! I’d like to see how powerful you actually are,” Yvonne snarled, eyes blazing with hatred for the man in front of her.“Alright, don’t think I’ll forget the both of you! I’ll make you two pay once my identity is confirmed!” Wyatt was a little dizzy at that point, so he could not do anything else even if he wanted to. He glared at them, then left the building quickly.In the CEO’s office, Wendy and Yvonne stared at each other blankly—they never thought that something like this could happen.“Miss Xavier, what happened? Where’s Mr. York? Did something happen to him?” Wendy was worried sick; Harvey had been absent for the past few days, then suddenly a new CEO had been elected. Was Harvey safe?“The CEO should be fine,” Yvonne said hesitantly. She quickly dialed Harvey’s phone, but he didn’t pick up.“What should we do?” Wendy started panicking.Yvonne inhaled deeply, forcing herself to calm down. “Come on, let’s get out of the office for now. We
“You…” The boss was panicking. The man in front of him was too calm! All of his men could not beat him, so what could he do on his own?“What… What do you want?” The boss mumbled, scared for his life.“The truth,” Harvey stated calmly. “If you tell me what I want to know, I’ll let you live. If you don’t, well, don’t blame me for what happens next.”“Of course…” The boss had sweat dripping down his face. The young man in front of him had an aura so terrifying that he unconsciously bowed. “B… Boss! Whatever it is you want to know, I’ll tell you!”“It was a woman who asked us to deal with you. She looked rich and only had one request: to cripple you. If you didn't behave, she said we could end your life too.”“End my life?” Harvey chuckled. “Is she from the York family?”“We have no idea—we only do what we’re told to get the money. But I do have a photo of her that one of my subordinates took secretly.” The boss quickly handed his phone to Harvey.Harvey glanced at the photo. The w
The streets of Niumhi were lively in the middle of the night following Tyson Woods’ order. Hundreds of men scoured the streets, going through massive hotels, clubhouses, and entertainment venues. No matter where Wyatt Johnson was hiding, they would find him.At that moment, Wyatt was in Cecilia Zachary’s apartment. The old hag hadn’t been tossing him around today, so he excitedly went to buy a few blue pills, ready to take his frustration out on Cecilia.However, Cecilia was not rushing anything—she had prepared a nice candlelight dinner, and the two were enjoying their food and being flirty with each other.Wyatt was a little impatient, but in his eyes, Cecilia was like a mouse that was already caught in his trap.“Oh Cecilia, how is it that I feel so comfortable around you?” Wyatt was leaning on the couch, his eyes half-closed in bliss as Cecilia gave him a head massage.Having this goddess of a woman give him a massage like a humble servant was truly heavenly.Cecilia was a
The crowd stepped aside to let Tyson Woods in, and he stalked in menacingly. He glanced at Wyatt and laughed.“Yeah, we do. How about you give us a few million dollars for pocket change?”“I was joking and you thought I was being serious? You dare come to me for money? Who do you think I am?” Wyatt narrowed his eyes at them. It was easier to negotiate if all they wanted was money. The others should know about his identity, so he doubted they would dare touch him with his new status as the CEO of York Enterprise.“I don’t care who you are! If you don’t hand over the money, I’ll break your bones! You figure it out on your own,” Tyson growled, and kicked a coffee table which broke into half.“Ah!” Cecilia let out a frightened shriek, her body trembling.“Can it! Make another sound and I’ll tear your mouth apart!” Tyson glared at Cecilia icily.Cecilia’s face instantly turned white and she quickly shut her mouth.Wyatt had peed his pants after Tyson's display of brute force. Whateve
“Harvey York… Why is a worthless piece of trash like you here?” Wyatt Johnson snarled.Harvey got cut off by Tyson before he could even open his mouth. “Sir York is my boss, disrespect him again and I’ll make sure you never walk again!”Wyatt froze. That worthless trash was someone’s boss? ‘How is this possible? Is this some sort of sick joke? Were these people hired by Harvey to act and scare us?’Wyatt leaped to his feet furiously and pointed at Harvey.“Some sort of live-in son-in-law you are! How dare you get people to scare us?! Do you know who I am? I’m the CEO of York Enterprise! The Zimmer family will go bankrupt because of you tomorrow! You’ll pay for this!”Cecilia also stood up and glared at Harvey. “I’ll tell Mandy all about this and make her throw you out of the family—you won’t even have a spot to beg for food.”After seeing Harvey, Wyatt and Cecilia naturally regained their egos tenfold.In their eyes, Harvey was nothing but a live-in son-in-law—anybody could step
Durandal and his men froze when they saw what happened, and their expressions darkened. While that long-haired man was frivolous, he was also a martial arts master.Before they could even react, Harvey had already snapped off the man's finger and fed it to the dog. That action was enough to stop Durandal and the others in their tracks, and even managed to silence the angry crowd.No one expected a man called a pretty face to be so brutal and decisive. At that moment, the men from Parkerville could feel the coldness radiating from Harvey. They couldn't stop the fear spreading in their heart."Darn it! How dare you hurt him?!""Do you have a death wish?""We're going to destroy your underground arena!"Everyone from Parkerville was filled with fury, wanting to retaliate. However, Harvey's calm expression was enough to scare them into silence. Durandal, the only person who knew Harvey's real identity, raised his hand to stop them. Then, he shot Harvey a cold look."What is the
"I believe someone outside the ring informed the young boxer. In short, this is no longer a one-versus-one battle! This is two versus one… No, perhaps even more! This isn't fair!"And then, Durandal raised his arm and shouted, "Tell me, friends! Is it against the rule for someone to use a high-tech method to instruct the young fighter in the middle of the match? Should they pay for all our losses?"While no one knew how Durandal could be so sure there was cheating involved, many saw that there was a chance for them to recover their losses. They knew who to support. All of them stood up and started yelling."Cheating! You're cheating!""Pay us! Pay us back!"Durandal continued to raise his arm. "We've already won this battle! However, the underground boxing ring was unable to accept their loss! Other than making them admit it, shouldn't we ask them to pay three times the money?!"All the spectators were excited and chorused brainlessly, "Three times! Three times!"They didn't car
As the Boxing Champion coughed out a mouthful of blood, it seemed to have caused a chain reaction. The blood vessels in his body began to bulge and explode, and blood began to flow out from his body. It was quite terrifying to watch, but from his bloodshot eyes, he seemed to have recovered some sort of clarity.He glared at the young fighter in front of him and collapsed on the ring, his eyes filled with disbelief."Ha… Didn't even break a sweat." The young fighter raised his hand, disdain on his face. His expression was calm, but everyone could see his arrogance."How is that possible?!" At that moment, there was only silence. No one expected the situation would change so quickly. The Boxing Champion had been defeated so quickly, many weren't sure what had happened. This had surpassed everyone's understanding.No matter if the audience was furious or in disbelief, the Boxing Champion had already fallen and the young fighter stood in the middle of the ring with a calm express
Everyone was still filled with mixed expressions as both sides clashed. To the Boxing Champion, he had already won countless fights. There was no need for him to be afraid of a young man.Meanwhile, the young fighter had great confidence. Nothing could shake him.The moment both sides clashed, dust and dirt burst from the floor. Everyone was shocked by their murderous intent.Their fists met. At that instant, they fought in the most brutal and primal way. They kept crashing into each other as they battled. The muted sounds of their attacks could be heard from outside the ring. The ring, though made of solid wood, began to crack open from the impact of their attacks. Everyone watched with bated breath, excitement etched on their faces. No one expected that the young man who looked like he was going to get beaten down in one punch would have so much endurance.It was way too thrilling! Too exciting!The two moved faster and faster. Very quickly, normal people couldn't even see h
When Harvey heard Mandy's agreement to his plan to close down the place, he immediately snapped his finger. A young man smaller and leaner than the Boxing Champion slowly walked out from the back.He wasn't surrounded by a malevolent aura like the Boxing Champion, and he didn't beat his chest like a drum either. He simply waved his hand around in a dull way, like he was only doing this as part of his job. When the spectators saw this, all of them booed.When some of the spectators who were hoping for a chance to turn their luck around saw this, they couldn't help but start to curse.What was the Ninth Branch doing?Why did they pull out a kid like this?Were they getting him killed?Meanwhile, Durandal and the others all glanced at each other before cackling madly. They were all from the Sacred Training Grounds, so they could see the young man was indeed someone special. But no matter how special he was, the difference in power couldn't be so easily overcome.There was only one
One hour later, Harvey once again appeared at the VIP seats. Durandal and the others had been waiting for them. When they saw Harvey appear, they grinned. "One hour is over, pretty boy. Can we start the battle now? Looking at how confident you are, maybe you should consider fighting yourself. If you're willing, I can tell the Boxing Champion to just use one arm."It was obvious that not only did Durandal want to use this chance to test Harvey's power, but he also wanted to get him killed.Harvey smiled. "There's no need for overwhelming firepower. Even your father couldn't make me fight him, let alone your underling."Durandal's eyes turned incredibly cold when he heard that. Just as the atmosphere in the VIP seats was becoming fired up, the atmosphere around the ring was also becoming more tense.They hadn't even fought yet, but both sides were already staring down at each other apprehensively. It would be quite intense once the fight really began.Very quickly, Durandal took a
Harvey ignored all of them, but simply looked at all the fighters. In the end, Harvey's eyes fell on a young man of about eighteen years old. It was obvious he had just come of age, and he had trained his body well. From his physique, Harvey could tell that his martial arts abilities were quite good too.Harvey could tell immediately that the young man probably had an extraordinary upbringing to have such power at such an age. He might be a core student who came out from a Sacred Training Ground to train.Most importantly, the other fighters either looked at Harvey warily or in envy. Only he looked at Harvey peacefully, as if everyone in this world were ordinary people.Harvey gave Maya a look, and Maya quickly introduced him. "Sir, this is a servant that a member of the Ninth Branch picked up from under the bridge. He's mute, but he's extremely loyal. When we realized he has great talent in martial arts, we decided to turn him into a fighter."Harvey narrowed his eyes. What kind
Maya was slightly stunned. However, she had always been very trusting of Harvey. She didn't say anything and quickly prepared the contract.When Durandal saw what was happening, he smiled coldly and immediately signed his name.Just as Harvey was going to sign his name, Mandy's expression turned dark and said, "Harvey, why don't we bet my hand? This is a Ninth Branch affair. It didn't have much to do with you in the first place."Harvey could sense Mandy cared about him and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Not to mention, certain things are unavoidable. You and the Ninth Branch are simply taking hits on my behalf. Trust me, I can manage this."Mandy hesitated a little and wanted to say something, but before she could, Durandal already said coldly, "Enough with the mushy nonsense. If you can't take a wager like this, I'm more than happy to let you both lick my boots a hundred times. After that, we'll call it even!"Harvey patted Mandy's shoulder and picked up the pen to sign his
"Your underlings are either Boxing Champions or Sword Champions. While they all sounded terrifying and their names quite stylish, and sound like they can defeat everyone that stands before them…" Harvey began coolly."Everything you did is so you can take all of the Ninth Branch's money, isn't it? If that's the case, why waste everyone's time? Let's do it decisively. We'll settle everything in one go. Of course, if you're scared, you can tell me too. I won't force you."Harvey shook his head and looked at Mandy. "This is boring, Mandy. Let's go, he's just a coward. I wonder where this spoiled brat comes from? He's scared of getting smacked by his own hand if he loses a few pennies. There's no need to waste time with people like this."When Mandy heard it, she said, "That's right. There's no need to waste time with rubbish."Durandal smiled coldly when he heard how they were mocking him. "No need for such sarcasm. I'm telling you right now, I'm not afraid of playing a game like th
