“The John family?” asked Harvey York.He had heard about the John family quite a few times already. People had also been extremely respectful when they brought them up.He could not fathom why there was a family way stronger than the Bauer family.Kayden Balmer took a deep breath.“The John family is extraordinary, Sir York!“They were just a normal wealthy family at first, but then they had a martial arts top talent who managed to join the Golden Palace.“About twenty years ago, the top talent even managed to defeat Colton Torres himself and rose as the head of the Golden Palace.“From that day onward, the John family had been steadily climbing ever since!“And because of the Golden Palace, almost nobody would dare go against them. Even though they aren’t exactly top-rated families, they still seem like one.“The only part they lack is a strong background that the other top-rated families have.”“The Overlord Gang and the John family…”Harvey lightly nodded. He understood w
“I didn’t want to marry anyone, and I didn’t want to be someone’s caged bird. So, I left after I finished my makeup.“I came here to have some beer and relax…“After a few sips, a young man came to talk to me. He said he was interested in me and that I was his woman according to India’s law.“There was no way I could stand the idiot, so I slapped him and told him to leave!“I thought this was just a small incident, but I didn’t expect that guy would come back!“He brought a few fighters with him and told me to go and serve some guy called Young Master Garcia.“I told him to leave again and also asked for security, but they wouldn’t dare take a step closer.“Then, the b*stard ran toward me and poured an entire bottle of beer in my mouth.“I instantly felt weak. I couldn’t even ask for help.“In any case, thank you for saving me despite our history!“I’ll make sure to repay the favor!”Sienna Wright was terrified at the moment. If it weren’t for Harvey York, she would have alr
Sienna Wright did not want to expose her whereabouts and get scolded by her father after finally slipping out of his clutches…But she was infuriated after thinking of what she had to go through. She quickly sent a text through her phone.Harvey York smiled at Sienna and handed her a bottle of soda.“It’s fine. Just watch the show while I’m here!“Those people are used to acting this way. They think they’re better than us.“I should teach them a lesson now that they’re here.“Just because our country rose to power peacefully doesn’t mean they get to walk over us.“They’ll be punished for doing such things here!”Harvey showed a calm look on his face. During the Euro-American war back in the day, the so-called Indian Gods of War were all beaten to a pulp.Why would he be scared of a few small fries?What a joke.***At the same time, the bald man stumbled into a luxurious box on the second floor.Under everyone’s gaze, he moved toward the coffee table in the center before s
There was a hint of rage in Freddy’s eyes; as a Kshatriya, he had never been disrespected like this in his entire life.But since he was still quite the capable man, he took a deep breath to calm himself. The emotion on his face completely dissipated afterwards.He wanted to trample on the man who dared to cross him…But he knew he didn’t have to do it himself.After all, the John family was the Overlord Gang’s honored guests. Compared to Freddy’s rage, Dahlia must’ve been way more embarrassed.The John family was on the upswing as well; there was no way they could take such disrespect.It would be bad if the situation ruined the family’s reputation completely.After calming down, Freddy put on a small smile.“Interesting. That’s normal, anyway.”“The Celestial Temple has no background in Country H. It’s only natural that they look down on us.”“If that wasn’t the case, Eli and his father wouldn’t be forced to kneel in front of the hospital a few days ago.”“This country sur
Upon hearing Dahlia’s orders, one of her subordinates, named Pork Wing, took the badge with a wretched grin.Pork Wing was one of the members of the well-known Safflower Fighters. It’s said that nobody could stand in his way when he wielded his steel pipe. He had killed quite a lot of so-called experts in his day.Flutwell’s Gang of Six had tried to buy him off for a high price…But he stayed with Dahlia.He had been fighting for her sake for the past few years, and had made quite an achievement for himself.Because of this, Dahlia’s status in the family was steadily rising.Pork Wing had rarely fought since then.After all, anyone would be terrified by Dahlia’s golden badge alone.And after all that smooth sailing, Pork Wing thought he had become quite the prominent figure.He believed that he was invincible, and that he could kill whoever he wanted.Simply put, he was just a servant who was infatuated with his master’s power!Pork Wing had a bossy look on his face as he he
Harvey’s emotions remained the same as he squinted at the sight in front of him.“Right. Since you’re just someone else’s servant, let’s just cut right to the chase.”“What do you want?”Pork Wing boiled with unbridled rage.“This is Lady John’s badge, kid! She wants you to break your own arms and send the woman to Young Master Garcia, and then kneel in front of our box for ten minutes! She’ll let you off the hook after that!”“Remember! She gave you a chance since we’re in the same country!”“You better cherish it!”“If you decline, you won’t be the only one getting it!”“Your family, friends, and everyone supporting you will all pay a huge price!”Naturally, Pork Wing mistook Harvey as a young master with a strong background after seeing Harvey act all high and mighty.He even took the badge out with an arrogant look on his face.Themen in suits behind him raised their heads pridefully, patiently waiting for Harvey to beg for mercy.After all, this was the John family’s b
“Dahlia John?”Harvey finally glanced at the badge, his face calm.“Is she flaunting her wealth in front of my face now?”“I don’t need any money, though.”“Go back and tell her that this won’t be enough to command me.”“It’s not enough to phase me, either.”Pork Wing grunted and held his nose, and then took a few steps back.“How are you this calm against the John family?!” he screamed in anger.“Who the hell are you?!”“Give me your name!”Harvey remained calm and collected.“Me? I’m just a live-in son-in-law.”“I have no other hobbies except dishing out justice.”“I don’t care who you are, kid! I’m going to cripple you for injuring me!”Pork Wing was filled with unbridled rage upon hearing that Harvey was just some live-in son-in-law.He then screamed at the men in suits, saying, “Go! Get him now!”The men from the Overlord Gang and the John family pulled out their weapons and rushed toward Harvey with great ferocity.Bam, bam, bam!Rachel narrowed her eyes and too
Pork Wing pulled out his phone and dialed a number…A cold tone could be heard from the other side.“Pork Wing? Why are you still not back yet?”Pork Wing trembled when he met Harvey’s eyes.“I’m no match for this man, Lady John.”“He said that your badge won’t hold him!”“I’m completely beaten!”After a moment of dead silence, Dahlia said calmly, “I thought I won’t have much to do tonight.”“Looks like someone here’s bringing me some fun.”“Clear out the place.”“We’ll play if he wants to play.”…Ten minutes later, every single customer of the bar was chased out.People from the Overlord Gang showed up soon after, completely surrounding the entire place.Even the streets were filled with tall and strong men.The warm mood inside the bar was replaced by a cold and distant feeling.The sound of high heels clacking steadily could be heard reverberating around the bar, and a hint of murderous intent was felt.When Harvey told someone to get him more tea, the door was kic
Nelly fell on her knees without delay and started to slap herself dozens of times. Finally, she muttered an apology to Xynthia before turning tail and fled.It was obvious that after what had happened, she was no longer the queen bee of the advertising department. What Sawyer had said also meant that she would become a non-person in the entertainment industry. Someone like her would not have a good ending.However, Harvey was unaffected despite knowing how Nelly's life would end. Instead, he thought she deserved it. It was already quite lenient for her to end up like this for a woman who did not know her place and wanted to bully her juniors.-After it was all done, Marlee invited Harvey to a three-story office building that was only a couple hundred feet away.Xynthia and Journi followed them there. The two were similarly quite surprised when they saw Marlee's change of attitude toward Harvey.Marlee did not know who Xynthia was, but she was acquainted with Journi. They just di
"Tell him to give me his name!" Sawyer said. "I don't care if he is in Wolsing or anywhere in Country H. I'll make sure he regrets ever coming to this world!"Sawyer sounded extremely domineering, and his tone was very arrogant. It was as if the entire world was his to destroy whenever he wanted to. Not to mention, one could hear from his tone that he did not care about Marlee at all.Marlee's expression darkened, and she wanted to speak.However, Harvey waved his hand and said, "Sawyer Judd, is it? Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Harvey York. If you still don't know who I am, you can ask your leader or your grandmother. You can speak to me once you know who I am."Also, your woman has harassed my younger sister and that upsets me a lot. You better be able to give me an explanation. It would be best if you could give me one. If you can't, I'll give you one instead."Harvey calmly replied, but his words were even more domineering than Sawyer's from the other side.What the hell?
"Mr. York, why did you suddenly visit Judd Entertainment? Do you have any order for me?" asked Marlee Harvey in a serious tone."Not exactly," Harvey pointed at Xynthia with his right hand. "That's my younger sister over there, but we're not biologically related. She's currently working at Judd Entertainment. But what happened? Your advertising department's superstar is forcing her to sleep with an old man, otherwise she'll ruin her career."I'm here to question you on behalf of my younger sister. Is this a company rule?"When Marlee heard what Harvey had to say, her eye twitched, and she quickly turned around and slapped Nelly, who was caught completely unprepared.Nelly cried out in pain as she held her face and landed on the ground, looking at Marlee in disbelief. "Don't you worry, Mr. York. I'll give you a satisfying explanation about this."Harvey calmly said, "This is not the first time we met each other, Marlee. So, I know this has nothing much to do with you. That's why
Harvey had ignored Nelly's taunts and continued with the countdown. "Three minutes."At this time, Journi approached them from the back. Journi gave Xynthia a strange look and then said to the woman from upper management, "Here's my advice. You should give Ms. Marlee a call right now. Otherwise… I don't think you'll be able to shoulder the consequences."Compared to Harvey, who was wearing something quite plain, the outfit Journi was wearing, while still minimalistic, was all from luxury brands and could only be bought through reservations.She was wearing the Lady Arpels Pont des Amoureux watch, worth hundreds of thousands.What Journi was wearing gave immense pressure to the woman and, after a moment of hesitation, she pulled out her phone and started to dial a number."Oh ho! So, you're a sugar baby!" Nelly said derisively as she instinctively grew hostile to Journi when she saw her. "A sugar baby saving a damsel in distress, becoming the white knight of another woman… How can
The woman who looked like upper management was stunned when she heard Harvey called out to her. "Do you want to see our boss?""My, what a show-off," Nelly scoffed at Harvey's pretentiousness. "Do you want to complain against me by speaking to our boss? Xynthia, where did you find this man? Why is he so stupid? Does he think he can settle this by complaining? Is something wrong with his brain?"Not to mention who does he think he is, thinking he can see our boss whenever he wants? If he can see her, I will fall on my knees and call him daddy!"The other female models all covered their mouths and chuckled. To their understanding, what Harvey did was so laughable and childish. Even the lady from upper management mockingly looked at Harvey and said, "Sir, our company headquarters aren't that far. It'll only take three to five minutes to get there."But, do you really think you can see our boss, Ms. Marlee? Not only is she one of the Judds of Wolsing's three daughters, but ordinary peo
After Nelly finished saying what she had to say, several male models walked toward the women. It was obvious that if Xynthia still refused, she would have a fate worse than death. Xynthia's face turned a little pale. While she was already used to all the big scenes and would bring her bodyguards when she had to go somewhere dangerous to film, she did not expect to be in trouble, even in public, like Northsea Park.She was unsure what to say.Xynthia had already stopped talking back to Nelly and looked around, trying to see if she could get any help or escape. Nelly derisively looked at Xynthia when she saw Xynthia's darting eyes. "Stop looking, Xynthia. Judd Entertainment had reserved this entire space. It doesn't matter if it's the staff or the security; they all work for Judd Entertainment."In short, I am the queen bee of this place, and they'll do whatever I tell them to. That's why your fate has already been set."Nelly waved her hand, and the male models moved extremely qui
Just when Harvey was figuring out what was happening from Journi, Nelly and other female models had already surrounded Xynthia.Nelly gave Xynthia the elevator eyes, and the malice was clearly written on her face. "What right do you think you have to join Judd Entertainment's model competition? Look how skinny you are. I'm giving you a chance to keep Mr. Lee company, do you understand? Why won't you listen to me? Will you only give up after I hit your face until it's swollen?"All the other models were angry at Xynthia once they heard what Nelly had to say."That's right, Xynthia. If you don't listen to Nelly, just leave already!""Our circle is not for someone like you who comes from nowhere.""If we let someone like you join our social circle, it will be an embarrassment.""It's all thanks to models like you who came from nowhere that make others look down on our community, thinking that we don't have class."Xynthia frowned a little, but she still slowly replied, "I'm a stude
"It's true that my family doesn't own Judd Entertainment, but without me, Judd Entertainment would have closed years ago," said the tall woman with a sneer. "Don't tell me you have forgotten that I'm Judd Entertainment's advertising department's superstar?"Harvey did not rush forward and simply squinted his eyes, looking at how things unfolded. Journi noticed the change in Harvey and softly said, "The tall woman is indeed the superstar for Judd Entertainment's advertising department. Her name is Nelly Parker. I heard that she's one of the mistresses of Sawyer Judd, the third son of the Judd family."She had suppressed plenty of newbies who could have become big stars in their own right within Judd Entertainment. She would use everything she had to kick a person out whenever her status was threatened to the point that the other person couldn't survive in the entertainment industry anymore."I've heard that female students from Wolsing's Academy of Motion Pictures have been sold to t
Harvey smiled. "You're welcome. Since I'm already treating you as my friend, I will help you deal with these problems to the best of my ability."Journi shot a strange look at Harvey but did not say a word. The atmosphere around them was becoming somewhat awkward. At this time, Harvey's gaze fell upon a small plaza not too far from the café.He saw plenty of filming equipment scattered around while some handsome men and beautiful women were filming something. It looked like there was some kind of event happening there.Journi looked at what Harvey was looking at. Then, as if she remembered something, she pointed at a logo next to the plaza. "Looks like it's an event organized by Judd Entertainment."Harvey saw a figure among the crowd and subconsciously asked, "Judd Entertainment?"Journi nodded. "The entertainment company belonged to the Judd family. Their business mainly involves filming dramas, movies, and advertisements. They're most widely known for their advertising. I heard
