Everyone realized what was going on then.“I knew it! Look at how he’s dressing! There’s no way he has that much money in the first place!”“You’re showing off with some voice app?! How egotistic can you be?!”“You’re embarrassing Ms. Zimmer!”“Look at yourself! You’ve never even seen this much money!”“Young Master Burton and Young Master Bohdi are just kidding with you! Did you actually think you’re some hot shot here?!”The people shocked by Harvey York came to their senses before relentlessly insulting him.The greater the shock, the harsher the words.‘This poor b*stard almost got us fooled!’Harvey curiously watched as the people were boiling in rage.He had no intention of explaining the situation whatsoever.They were just so insular to him.“Shut up!“You can’t talk about my Brother-In-Law like that!Xynthia Zimmer was getting angry after seeing Harvey being ridiculed incessantly.“He wouldn’t lie to you like that!“1.5 billion dollars really is nothing to him!
“There’s still time for you to leave.“I can decide for Young Master Burton here.“We’ll pretend that nothing ever happened.Bohdi coldly chuckled with murderous intent clearly showing in his eyes.“But if you don’t leave right now, then don’t blame me for what happens next.”Harvey York shrugged.“Oh?“I’m so scared!”“Stop showing off already, Harvey!Bohdi let out a chuckle.“I’m from India, but I also have a lot of connections here!“Flutwell Police Station’s second-in-command, Logan Bowie himself, is my brother!“He can throw you behind bars if he wants to!”Bohdi threatened Harvey with a calm look on his face.“Logan?“The second-in-command?”Harvey burst out laughing.“Fine! Get him here to take me in then!” exclaimed Harvey.“I’ll give you 1.5 billion dollars if you can actually get him to do that!”Bohdi stood frozen. He did not expect to get that reaction from Harvey. He had no idea what to reply at that moment.“Don’t you realize just how powerful Flutwel
“Come on! It’s just one glass!”Bohdi still poured Xynthia Zimmer the drink anyway.Xynthia shook her head.“I’m really allergic.”“Don’t be such a downer, Xynthia! Please drink some!”“Yeah! We’re all guests here! We should be going along with the host! You shouldn’t be this impolite!”“Young Master Burton and Young Master Bohdi are prominent figures of the Bharata Business Council! How are you supposed to make a career out of yourself if you’re being this disrespectful?”“You’ll gain so much just by having the drink! There’s no way that you don’t understand, do you?”Everyone spoke up in unison to pressure Xynthia into drinking.Xynthia just kept quiet with a calm look on her face.Eli Burton thought about the situation before he opened his mouth.“You’re not mad at us going at your brother-in-law now, are you?” asked Eli profoundly.“I am!” replied Xynthia coldly.Eli chuckled before he showed a cold gaze. He never expected that this woman was so much more different tha
“Here’s to our friendship, Sir York!”Eli Burton raised his glass.“Right!”Harvey York clinked his glass with Eli’s before they chugged their drinks down.Soon after, everyone had three glasses of drinks.After Eli gave everyone a look, a young man stepped forward with a warm smile.“Here’s a toast to meeting you, Sir York!”“Enough, Harvey! Let’s get out of here!”Xynthia Zimmer kept tugging on Harvey’s clothes after seeing those people trying to get Harvey drunk.Harvey completely ignored Xynthia and merely smiled at the young man. They clinked glasses before Harvey downed his drink again.“You’re such a generous man, Sir York! Let’s get along…”“I strive to have an outlook like yours, Sir York!”“It’s so good to meet you, Sir York!”Around eight young masters from India went up to Harvey for a toast.They were being so hospitable, as if Harvey was their savior.Harvey smiled while constantly clinking his glass with the others. He had no intention of stopping any time
The Dragon Set was all empty after another round.Eli Burton coldly chuckled when he saw the sight.‘This guy’s such an idiot. He must be an amateur.‘We’re obviously trying to wear him down. Can’t he see that?’Everyone knew that Harvey York was about to topple sooner or later when they saw him walk while swaying around.Bohdi was showing a playful smile when he saw the sight as well.‘As expected from Young Master Burton.‘He learned so much to win with strategy alone.’Bohdi clapped his hands before the waiter brought over another Dragon Set.He brought over two bottles of Ace of Spades and handed one to Harvey.“Let’s drink a bottle each, Sir York! You’re a man, aren’t you?”Xynthia Zimmer was terrified after seeing the sight.“You can’t drink anymore, Brother-In-Law!”“It’s okay! I’m fine!“I can hold my liquor!Harvey seemed like he was in a daze while his body kept swaying. He grabbed the bottle with a smile on his face and replied, “Let’s do it!”Bohdi smiled ba
Soon after, Bohdi toppled before everyone else followed suit.Xynthia Zimmer was completely shocked! Her brother-in-law was just impressive!Harvey York carried a bottle right in front of Eli Burton, who was already getting pretty sluggish.“For the mighty country of India, let’s have another toast!” said Harvey with a smile.Eli had no chance even to decline such a good excuse.Eli’s body was constantly trembling while his eyes were filled with despair, but he had to grab the bottle Harvey had brought over.Eli was going mad as soon as he chugged the bottle down. It was his first time seeing someone this good at drinking.All of his schemes…They were all turned into jokes at this very moment!Eli’s body was going limp while his stomach was burning. If he kept drinking, he would actually go insane.Harvey did not give him a chance to rest, though. He grabbed another bottle with a warm smile and said, “Come! Come! For the mighty Vaishyas!”“Right… Right…”Eli could not focu
On the next day, in Hearthstone Corporation.Mandy Zimmer had been working overnight before she walked out of her office with a miserable look.Because of Lilian Yates, she could not just stay in the Hatchet Gang’s base camp. One of the rooms in the building was turned into a makeshift room for her to rest for the time being.Mandy took small sips of the porridge that she had made herself.It was not as easy to manage the company at all. Other than all the detailed accounts she had to sort out, the shareholders were scattered when they held their own authority.Even if Mandy could make all the shots for the company because of her seventy percent shares, the shareholders should not be underestimated.Along with the xenophobic behavior of Flutwell’s upper social circle, Mandy had been living a tough life for the past few days.But after thinking that Harvey was the one who got all the shares for her, Mandy took a deep breath before going through the accounts again.If she still c
“If you’re not telling me what I need to know, I won’t call him,” replied Mandy Zimmer with a serious look.“You better leave right now, or I’ll call the cops.”Mandy did not know what kind of grudge the woman before her had against Harvey York…But she feared that Harvey would suffer after seeing the two Demon Monks here.“I’ve been looking for him the entire day…“But I still couldn’t find this goddamn b*stard!“You’re his ex-wife, but we can only keep you here since we can’t find him!Diana Lee glared coldly at Mandy.“You better make the call right now, or it’ll be bad if I get angry!”Obviously, Diana had no idea that Harvey was living in the Hatchet Gang’s base camp.If she did, she would probably stay away from him.In her mind, Harvey would definitely show himself if Mandy was used as bait.“Don’t you understand me?!”Mandy’s face instantly darkened.“This is the Hearthstone Corporation! Our shareholders are all prominent figures in the city!“The company doesn’t
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
