Ten o’clock at night. In the Hatchet Gang’s base camp.Harvey was casually making himself some tea in the garden.A slender figure could be seen walking from afar not long after.“Your wife won’t get jealous of me for this, right, Sir York?” Rachel said with a smile before taking a seat in front of Harvey.She was wearing a gown made of silk. Together with her wavy hair, her exquisite feminine look was quite apparent.Harvey admired her beauty before flashing her a warm smile.“Are you going to tell me that I’ll anger Mandy just by drinking tea and watching the moon with you?”Rachel smiled back.“Of course. I’m different from the others. I only care about you, after all…”Harvey chuckled. He didn’t think Rachel would crack jokes like this, especially considering her serious demeanor.He poured a cup of tea for Rachel before changing the subject.“Alright. Enough jokes.”“Let’s talk business.”“Let Mandy take care of the company starting tomorrow.”“You deal with Longmen’
During the chaos at the police station last time, August had bodyguards of the Bauer family with him. Unfortunately, there were simply too many journalists chasing after him.The bodyguards wouldn’t dare strike back, while the victims’ families had no restraint.August had no way to defend himself against the crowd rushing toward him.Many people pulled out their weapons to attack him. If it weren’t for August being well-versed in martial arts, his limbs would’ve long been gone.Yet, he was still bruised everywhere. There were even dark circles around his eyes.August didn’t bear a grudge against those people. There was no point to that.However, he knew that Harvey was to be blamed for all this!“How dare he keep going against me?!”“He’ll pay!”Though August was shocked to realize that Harvey kept thinking of ways to break through his well-laid plans, he was more startled that Harvey actually had the guts to fight back. In fact, the man constantly put Joseph and everyone els
“If we can’t ask for the thirteenth young master’s help, we’ll end up horribly if we’re forced to go against Harvey.”“Shut up!”“Are you lecturing me right now?!”August was infuriated.“Let me think! How are we supposed to survive in Flutwell if we can’t even deal with a damn outsider?”August swiftly pulled out his phone and scrolled through his contacts.His eyes lit up when his finger stopped at an overseas number. A faint smile appeared on his face soon after.“The thirteenth young master won’t do it, but someone will.”“If I can’t deal with Harvey, someone else can!”“Go! Go to Bharata Hall! Ask Young Master Garcia out for golf tomorrow…”“Tell him that I haven’t thanked him for the expert with the Art of Disguise yet.”…On the next day, early in the morning.Harvey took Mandy to Hearthstone Corporation to deal with the company’s procedures.Mandy took the position as the company’s CEO soon after.Harvey’s decision was enough to seal Lilian’s mouth, even if the l
“That’s why I’m asking you for help…”Harvey froze when he heard about the Torres family’s history. A bitter smile reached his lips.“Don’t forget: I may be the Head Coach, but I’m no doctor.”“That’s true, but you know the Art of Killing.”“The Lifestealing Finger is one of those techniques.”“Only you have a chance to save my father now.”“I really wouldn’t ask for your help if that wasn’t the case.”Naturally, Ansel knew that Harvey wouldn’t take action that easily. That was why he kept quiet for the longest time.But after seeing his father in pain, his face showing no color, Ansel decided to take the risk and ask for Harvey’s help regardless.“No need to be this formal, Ansel,” Harvey replied.“I can’t guarantee I’ll heal your father and bring him back to normal, but I’ll do my best.”“Don’t worry. You’re all brothers in my eyes.”Ansel was utterly grateful.“We can die happy with those words of yours, Sir York!”He then gestured for the driver to head back home.“R
Legends said that the manor was built during the country’s rise for Flutwell’s first-in-command.For almost a hundred years, the manors here had been constantly torn apart and rebuilt, leaving only ten properties around the place.The owners of the manors were no small feat, either.They were either previous first-in-commands of Flutwell, or they had contributed to the city’s development immensely.People without such achievements would have no right to live in these houses.Harvey didn’t care much about the place, but he still understood its importance.The car parked in front of the Number One Manor a few minutes later.Harvey and Ansel then walked out of the car.Harvey looked around curiously and saw exquisite blue bricks and red tiles, perfect for the aesthetics of elderly people.Armed men in uniforms were posted all around the place as well. This was enough to explain a lot of things.“Please, Sir York!”Ansel brought out all sorts of credentials for a man in uniform
Naturally, Colton had already looked up Harvey’s name beforehand. He wouldn’t say such a thing if that wasn’t the case.“You can’t do things properly, but you sure are pretty arrogant, kid!”Colton took a step forward, as if he was trying to suppress Harvey with his aura. He wasn’t enraged because of Harvey’s words, though.“Be efficient while keeping a low profile. This is my principle,” Harvey replied.“I understand what you’re saying…”“But we should always look at the bigger picture!”“If there’s a way to put things right once and for all, why even waste energy in the first place?”“Luring the target before eliminating the entire group…”“That’s the best way to do things, don’t you think?”“That’s what you think! Those are just your own principles!” Colton snapped coldly.“But to me, you’re just being indecisive! In the end, your hesitance caused you more problems!”Ansel was at a complete loss, but he managed to catch up to the conversation.His father and Harvey were
Ansel was in shock, but Colton remained expressionless; nobody knew exactly how he was feeling.He then walked over before tapping Harvey on the shoulder.Harvey stood still, just as expressionless. “I told you Harvey was impressive, Father. Do you believe me now?”Ansel smiled faintly.“Can Sir York have a look at your injury now?”Before Colton spoke up, a voice echoed from outside.“Uncle Torres! Where are you?”“Let’s go to the hall.”Colton clapped his hands.“Sienna’s here.”“She told me she’d find me a well-known doctor a few days ago.”“She was planning to get me fixed.”“Sir York. Sienna’s from the Wright family,” Ansel whispered in Harvey’s ear.“Her father is my father’s good friend. That’s why both our families have a good relationship.”“I didn’t know she was going to come with a doctor. I’m really sorry about that.”“The Wright family?”Harvey smiled after hearing Ansel’s words.“The head of the top ten families in Country H?”“Is Sienna the legendary
Rudolph’s title wasn’t just for show.It was said that he had studied ancient medical skills from both India and the Island Nations, as well as western and eastern medicine. His skills were considered unparalleled.He was also able to filter out most of the useless information and keep only the essence of said medical skills, further pushing him to more lengths.It’s said that even the royal families of Northern Europe would occasionally hire him to treat them, prolonging their lives in the process.However, Rudolph’s price was extremely high; he would charge at least millions of dollars every time.If he had to operate on anyone, it would cost exponentially more.Despite that, his business was still flourishing.Ansel had already heard of the legendary Deathbuster before. Even though the Torres family was quite well-known throughout Flutwell, they were still not good enough to get someone like Rudolph here.If it weren’t for Sienna, Rudolph probably wouldn’t have shown up here
Rumble…The hammer's power was unleashed at this time, and it was hurled at the enemy before it with a surge of lightning. Harvey calmly slammed it with his palm.Bang!Every time they clash with each other, an unimaginably powerful sonic boom would occur, causing the entire plaza to be struck with catastrophe.Bang!The ninth time the hammer was struck down, Harvey's expression turned dark and he side-stepped the attack. He instantly avoided a bolt of lightning and then slammed his palm right into Raiden's chest.There was a bang, and Raiden's body trembled before he was hurled away immediately. The electricity around his hammer instantly dissipated, and he crashed into an electric pole like a ragdoll. He looked flustered. He struggled to get up and wanted to take out the Royal Flush he hid under his belt, but Harvey instantly appeared next to him and kicked him.Bang!Raiden was once again sent flying through the air, falling to the ground together with his hammer. His bo
Harvey still didn't relax and continued to make a roll.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!The assassins with the Royal Flush continued their attacks. Very quickly, all the assassins wearing their military uniform fell to the ground, dying with a peaceful look on their faces.This also proved just how powerful the Royal Flush was. That weapon could kill even the True Warriors of legends. The ordinary assassins didn't stand a chance.At this time, Harvey had already confirmed the location of the assassins using the Royal Flush. He immediately headed straight to the entrance and raised the repeating crossbows in his hand. Then, he aimed on top of a streetlight right outside the entrance and pulled the trigger.Whoosh!The masked man standing on the street light with the Royal Flush in hand couldn't react in time. He immediately let go of the Royal Flush in his hand. A dagger slid out into his hand and he immediately jumped right on top of the street light, heading straight for Harvey, the dag
The assassin who opened the door of the fridge couldn't even cry out as he felt a pang of pain in his neck before crumbling to the ground without making a sound.All the assassins were stunned. Before they could reach, Harvey's figure appeared and the knives in his hand began to dance. Blood splattered everywhere as a few more people slumped to the ground noiselessly.However, these assassins were indeed quite skilled. When they were ambushed, one of them managed to escape the room to call for help. As he did that, all the assassins scattered around the café instantly assembled in this location."Fire! Right now!"As if they knew just how powerful Harvey was, the people outside didn't care if the assassins inside were still alright. The moment they were in position, all of them raised the guns and repeating crossbows in their hand and pulled the trigger as they aimed into the kitchen.Harvey's expression was calm. He kicked on a steel trolley outward, then immediately took a step
When Jessica saw how Harvey glared at the assassins and gunners with dark eyes, her expression changed again. While she was considered part of Grand City and was also trained in martial arts, she knew she couldn't fight off so many people.She was not a King of Arms or a True Warrior. How could she stop an assault from so many sides? When the thought flashed through her mind, she held on to Harvey and said, "Harvey, if you can protect me and my family, I can tell you everything. Everything I did was ordered by Dan. Other than Dan, Emery is also part of this, and I have proof!"They have two objectives. They want you to become a permanent enemy of Sienna. They're going to even find a chance to make it look like Sienna ordered this and overtake her completely!"Harvey glared at the group and said, "I can understand why Emery wanted to overtake Sienna, since familial love is a joke in such wealthy families. But I thought Dan was courting Sienna. Why is he doing that?""Because Dan c
Jessica noticed that while Harvey was simply having a friendly chat, he had almost revealed all her activities when she was in Wolsing. She knew very clearly that once he told everything to the Wrights and the Yates, not only would they kill her, but they would also kill her entire family.Most importantly, he was able to easily deduce that Dan was behind her. That filled Jessica with horror. She was terrified by how direct Harvey was and knew everything that had happened.The last person that made Jessica feel like this…It was her employer, Dan. Just when Jessica was hesitating if she should sell Dan out, Harvey suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the corridor not far away. Several kids were running around in the corridor. It was quite noisy, especially in a quiet atmosphere like this.Many passersby simply glanced at the children and didn't give them another look. But for some reason, Harvey felt like there was something wrong. Then, he smelled something like tobacco.
"Or maybe you're thinking that after working a little bit harder for a while, you'll be able to leave the country and live under the radar. Then, you can go to Country A and live the life you want? Your parents have already been sent over, right?"No matter what happens, Dan treats those who work for him well. But… There's something I don't understand. You're willing to leave your home permanently just because he treats you well? You're willing to give him your undying loyalty just like that? Is it worth it?" Harvey asked as he put his cup of latte down on the table with a curious expression.The ordinary young woman shuddered slightly before raising her head. She gave Harvey a look and said, "Are you talking to me, sir? Do we know each other?"Harvey smiled. "We don't, but I'm pretty sure you know me. Or should I say… It's exactly because you know me that you went to Country A and persuaded Royce to come to Wolsing. Whether it's the 150 million dollars given to Lilian or lying to X
The next day…What happened to Geraldton Hotel was being reported on the news. It was about how an underground criminal empire in Wolsing was being swept by the authorities. Harvey didn't expect things to go so out of hand. At the same time, he now knew that no matter what the Yates of Country A wanted to do, they wouldn't be able to make any moves in the short term after what happened.There was another rumor that Kyros alone had borne the brunt of the crimes for the Wright family. The Wrights of Wolsing had removed his name from the family and that was enough to settle things. They were also not part of the media report.It was easy for one to see that a compromise had been reached by all the factions involved. Otherwise, if the Wrights of Wolsing really wanted to get involved, no one could estimate how this would develop.Just as Harvey was reading the news, his phone buzzed. Yvonne's stern voice came from the other side. "Sir, I've managed to investigate everything clearly.
Just as Harvey was thinking about who was behind this, his phone suddenly started to buzz. He picked it up—there was only one message."Interesting," Harvey said with a deep smile as he read it. "It's George. After his investigation, the one leading the task force has a really clean background. However, when he was at university, he was fully sponsored by a charity fund belonging to the Jeans of Mordu."After his graduation, the speed he gets promoted is also much faster than his peers around the same age. No matter how I looked at it, someone had been giving him a boost. However, is this the result of Mandy going over to Purdue Mountain? It doesn't look like Zayden, as the patriarch of one of the top ten families, wants to calm things down…"Feels like he wants to make things even worse. How is this going to benefit the Jeans of Mordu?"Yvonne narrowed her eyes slightly. "At the very least," she said, "there are two ways they can benefit from this. Firstly, it's to clarify their
The next day.The estate in the third ring of Wolsing.Harvey had originally planned to go to Mordu at night when Mandy called him. She told him everything that happened in Geraldton Hotel had been settled. Zayden's side would make a move and demand a direct explanation from them for what happened.Harvey was quite shocked when he heard this.The leader of the Jeans of Mordu had been too discreet, so much so that this was the first time he heard about this name. But the problem was, Harvey didn't believe that the Jeans of Mordu who had been making things difficult for Mandy all this while would suddenly make a move without cause.However, Mandy kept on telling Harvey that everything was over. She would keep Xynthia in Mordu for a few more days. Once the dust had settled, she would then send Xynthia back to Wolsing.Hearing Mandy so confident with herself, Harvey decided not to say anything else. That being said, he still her Mandy that if anything happened, she must tell him imme
