“I don’t know you, Manager Bowie. This is the dressing room.“I’m going to remove my makeup now. I need you to leave!”Xynthia Zimmer was shocked by Dylan Bowie’s arrival, but she still managed to keep her composure.Then, she secretly sent a text to someone while she was talking.Aiden Bauer, who had been following Xynthia, stepped forward with a cold look.No matter who this person was, whoever crossed Xynthia would die horrible deaths.“Tch tch tch! You little b*tch…“You change quicker than you change your f*cking clothes, don’t you?!“You took my benefits, came to my show, earned my money, and now you’re planning to pretend that you don’t know me?!“Was I being too kind to you yesterday? Is that why you’re having some sort of mistake right now?”After Boss Dart went to trouble Xynthia, he disappeared without a trace.But after seeing Xynthia perform, Dylan thought that Boss Dart still had not taken action yet.Dylan could not hold his feelings back any longer, so he de
After all, Xynthia Zimmer was here to perform, not to cause trouble.The entertainment industry was already a huge mess, to begin with.If some journalists manage to take pictures of the situation, it would be a huge scandal, no doubt.Even though Dylan Bowie was an insolent man, Xynthia wanted to step on his face so badly…Still, she wanted the situation to die down.“You’re from Mordu yourself, Xynthia. You know exactly how the world works.“But, how are you still so naive?!”Dylan pulled out a cigar and lit it up before blowing a puff of smoke at Xynthia’s face with a playful expression.“Even if you don’t know my identity in Film City, you should at least realize that nobody in Flutwell’s entertainment industry is allowed to reject me, right?“But, you keep doing it repeatedly, then ask me to leave?!“Who gave you the courage?!“I can tell you for sure that you’ll have to do exactly as I say, even if you don’t want to!“I got exactly a hundred and ten fighters from the
Disdain was showing on the corner of Dylan Bowie’s mouth when he coldly exclaimed, “Just play your part as a pretty boy, alright?“Don’t f*cking run your mouth in front of me without permission!“I can kill outsiders like you with a single slap if I want to!“I’d kill at least eight people like you every single month!“At least see if you’re capable enough to save a damsel in distress!”Dylan spoke to Harvey York in a peculiar tone before making a gesture, signaling his men to surround Harvey.Dylan then walked up to Xynthia Zimmer while chuckling coldly.“Just tell me if you’re that impatient, pretty girl!“Why get yourself a pretty boy from so far away…“When you can have me instead?“I’m strong! I got lots of tricks up my sleeve as well! I can last at least five minutes!“I’ll have fun with you today! As long as I have my fill, I promise I won’t bother you ever again!“Just sign the paper, and I’ll even reward you with a few more! You’ll earn so much money!“It’s your b
The moment he raised his finger, Harvey York grabbed it and pushed it back in a split second.Crack!The young man screamed in pain along with the sound of the loud crack before he kept rolling on the ground relentlessly.The man did not expect that something like this would ever happen.He was just a small fry in Flutwell, but he was still Dylan Bowie’s lackey!How could a pretty boy from outside even dare to do something like this?He must have had a death wish!A few beautiful women covered their mouths and stepped back in shock after seeing the sight.This far exceeded their expectations.They never thought that anyone would even challenge a man like Dylan.Their hearts were beating rapidly when they instinctively moved back, afraid they would somehow get dragged into the situation.Dylan froze. He did not expect someone to hurt one of his men in front of him.Bam!Before Dylan could even say anything, Harvey kicked the young man out of the door before he derisively wi
Harvey York calmly glanced at Dylan Bowie and his lackeys.He knew that the people behind them were the same people who had Mac Bauer’s back.He did not mind teaching those people a lesson so they would humble themselves.“You b*stard!“How dare you?!“You hit me twice?!A mouthful of blood spurted out of Dylan’s mouth. He was chuckling out of unbridled rage.“You ignorant f*ck!”Dylan furiously pointed toward Harvey’s direction.“Kill him!” he exclaimed.“Go!”A dozen fighters from the Bowie family took off their jackets before charging at Harvey with tables and chairs in hand.Harvey walked forward without a care in the world.Slap slap slap!A series of slaps could be heard.In just a single moment, the fighters were all covering their faces as they were sent flying. As soon as they landed back on the ground, they were wailing in pain while all of them rolled all over the place.The trump cards Dylan would usually use to flaunt his strength were all taken down in jus
Harvey York then calmly strutted away with Aiden Bauer and Xynthia Zimmer.Dylan Bowie, whose face was completely swollen, was showing a wretched look on his face at this moment.When Harvey and the others were gone, he furiously jumped up and screamed, “That b*stard!“That goddamn b*stard!“How dare he go against me in Flutwell?!“Call for reinforcements!“Right now!“I’ll make him understand!”“I’ll let him realize that he has no right to go against a man of my status!“Remember! Get my uncle here as well!“Not only am I going to make him remember…“I want him behind bars for the rest of his life!“Surely he’ll regret offending me after that!”Dylan was gritting his teeth with a vile look on his face.He was not the greatest young master, but he had been ruling Flutwell’s entertainment industry for many years.At least eighty starlets had shared the same bed with him by then.A few years ago, an arrogant young master tried to fight him for a woman when he went to Wols
Aiden Bauer knew that Harvey York would not even bother for a nobody like Dylan Bowie.But, he knew that Joseph Bauer would be hard to deal with. That was why he decided to warn Harvey.In reality, Joseph alone would not mean anything either way.But the Bauer family, Longmen, and the Golden Palace that supported him were the most troublesome bunch.“It’s okay. If Joseph doesn’t show up here, we’ll just disregard it.“But, if he does turn up, I’ll just beat him up anyway.Then, Harvey patted Aiden’s shoulder.“You’ve been with me for a long while now, Aiden. You’ve made a lot of achievements.“But bear in mind, there’s only one rule you should follow when you’re with me.“As long as we’re being reasonable, we shouldn’t be scared of anyone!”Aiden nodded passionately. As expected of Sir York himself.Only he could make such arrogant remarks sound so sensible!Vroom!In just thirty minutes, dozens of top luxury cars were parked right in front of the mall’s parking lot.The
Dylan Bowie felt like he was at his peak after hearing those words.Even when there were a few palm prints on his face, the proud look on his face was still showing while he stood up straight.At this very moment, he felt that he was the true lord of the world.He thought he was the only person who called the shots in Flutwell!A lot of women were utterly charmed when they looked at Dylan.‘What a handsome man!’‘Even when palm prints are on his face, even if he looks completely messed up…’‘Only a man like this can be considered domineering!’The women wished to be dominated by a man like this!At this very moment, they just wanted to kneel in front of Dylan.After feeling the women’s fiery passion, Dylan felt a lot more arrogant.He blew a huff of smoke with a proud look on his face as if he had forgotten just how miserable he was a few moments ago. Then, he walked toward Harvey before he looked down on him with a cold gaze.“I’m giving you one last chance, Harvey!“Grov
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
Hale's expression was one of shock.Susan was the same.Hale didn't expect Sky Plane's plan to be so vicious. They wanted the Chapter of Ascension and to use the chance to plunge Grand City into chaos.Susan was shocked about how accurate Harvey's guesswork was. If it wasn't because she knew that someone like him would never have a connection with Sky Plane, she would even think that he might have a hand in setting up the trap that looked like it was simply a string of coincidences.Otherwise, how would he have known everything in such detail?Clarion looked at Harvey with more admiration. While he looked like just an ordinary man, whether his power or perception was far beyond them.Hale slowly closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down for a long time.Then, he turned and looked at Susan and muttered, "Now that we have reached this juncture, I don't think that there should be any more secrets between you and I. Just one question. Did everything happen exactly as Mr. Harvey
"Or maybe, in your subconscious, you do realize that something isn't right. Maybe you simply feel that it's better for her not to know about some things. That way, things will be safer for her," Harvey said with a shrug. "However, the truth is that she didn't get anything from you at all until yesterday, isn't it?"Hale nodded. "You're right. I did have some doubts about her in my mind, that's why I did tell her everything except the Chapter of Ascension."Hale seemed to reminisce about something else before giving a painful smile. "And then, as time passed by, I no longer suspected her. But I'm worried that it'll get her killed, so I chose not to say anything. I believed that as long as I said nothing, we'll be able to live a peaceful life! No one expects that in the end…"Hale signed, looking hopeless when he said that.However, Susan simply smiled icily. "Stop your crocodile tears, Hale. You never trusted me, so stop saying that you love me!"Hale smiled bitterly. He didn't w
Clarion was stunned when he saw Mrs. Hoffman was still trying to argue her way out."Even the way you argue is the same as the Origin Ninjas. Seriously?" Harvey smirked. "Right, I heard that the Origin Ninjas would leave the mark of a petal on the most private spot so that it was easier for them to identify each other. You must have seen it, right, Mr. Hoffman? Of course, I believe she'd definitely say it was just a tattoo that she had while she was in her youth."Unfortunately, I believe that Grand City has plenty of records. It should be quite easy for us to find the evidence we need. That's why, Mrs. Hoffman… Is there really a need to deny it anymore now that we've reached this point?"Mrs. Hoffman shuddered a little. She didn't expect that Harvey would be able to easily see through all her disguise. Most importantly, he even knew about the most damning evidence on her. In a situation like this, continuing with the argument really was pointless."You… You…!"At the same tim
Harvey said calmly, "You smell like one of them."Whoosh!Before Harvey could finish, Mrs. Hoffman immediately pounced at him. In midair, she waved her hand and threw a string of knives.All her blades were blue in color. They looked very pretty, but if they scratched one's skin, one could easily lose their lives if they weren't sent to the hospital immediately.Clarion was shocked when he saw what was unfolding. It was obvious he didn't expect Harvey's words to help them identify Mrs. Hoffman's real identity and forced her to attack.Still, that was quite normal. Thinking back about it, Mrs. Hoffman's calmness during this whole ordeal showed that she was not a normal woman.The power she suddenly showed was within their expectation, and they could understand it too.However, this exact revelation was making things more painful for Hale. It hurt him even more than finding out that his beloved wife sold him out. Clank! Clank! Clank!Harvey pulled up a small fruit knife and thr
Harvey's expression became cold as he watched Mrs. Hoffman. He was completely done with her.Mrs. Hoffman bit her lip and stared at Hale for a long time. "You're right! The one who sold you out is me. I sold your identity to other people, too. I'm also the one that almost got you killed. When I heard about the Chapter of Ascension in the morning, I was also the one who sent the message!"Hale's expression was one of bitterness and grief. He gritted his teeth and asked coldly, "Why?""Why?" Mrs. Hoffman scoffed, a hint of disdain on her face. "Why do you think I did this? Fine, I'll tell you. It's easy—after marrying you for so many years, I've never had a life of peace! We're either living in the streets or hiding! I didn't ask for a wealthy life. I just want a normal and peaceful life like any other ordinary woman! But I can't see us ever having that life! "If that's the case, why can't I gamble everything away? Why can't I sell you in exchange for wealth so I can have an e
Hale let out a bitter cry with a sorrowful expression. How could anyone expose that the person who slept next to them would be the one to stab them in the back?Hale whispered, "I simply didn't want that person to be you. You have been with me for so many years and have suffered so much. I've already treated you as my only family. If family like you betrayed me, it would do nothing but make me suffer."That was why I arranged such a test. I was hoping that Mr. Harvey would betray me once he knew who I really was and that I really did have the Chapter of Ascension. That way, I could continue executing my plans in peace."I didn't expect him to be completely uninterested in the Chapter of Ascension. Instead, you were the one who betrayed me again. It also meant that the one who turned me to Camellia and let her trace me was you…"Harvey didn't pin any blame on Hale after hearing what had happened. After giving it a thought, he said, "Normally speaking, we've just met for the first
"You… Hale! How…" Mrs. Hoffman crawled back up, her mind going black for a moment. She quickly pulled out her phone, about to make a call. Because she was too nervous, she kept on pressing the wrong numbers. She couldn't make that call.Harvey didn't say anything as he looked at this scene calmly.Meanwhile, Hale's expression began to change. There was a hint of sorrow in his eyes as he looked at the woman he loved. "Honey… Don't tell me that despite Mr. Harvey having no interest in the Chapter of Ascension, you let someone else get it instead? In short, you're the one that betrayed me… And has been betraying me…"A tear of blood formed from the corner of Hale's eyes as he spoke.Mrs. Hoffman, who was still trying to make that call, shuddered as she turned and looked at the man whom she had accompanied for many years.At the same time, someone pushed open the door. It was Clarion. He quickly walked into the room and leaned in next to Harvey, whispering, "Something happened
