A discreet Haval sedan was parked outside the Flutwell Police Station in a corner.The door of the sedan opened upon Harvey’s appearance. Sienna walked out with a warm smile.“You’re finally here, Sir York.”“If you didn’t get released, I’d feel guilty my whole life,” Sienna said with a sad look on her face.With her status, she could’ve bailed Harvey out of jail with just a single phone call.But since her status was just too extraordinary, there were some things even she couldn’t do.This was why villains in movies were always able to do anything, while the heroes were constantly restrained.After all, some people exist to protect the law and justice; they had no choice but to be an example for the people.Thus, Sienna didn’t plan to make the call from the beginning.Instead, she planned to quietly dig out evidence of the John family conspiring with the enemy and apprehend the culprits if Harvey got screwed by them.It was good that Harvey got released soon after.This mea
Looking at Sienna’s determined expression, Harvey knew there would be no end to this if he declined.After pondering about it for a while, Harvey reluctantly accepted the gift.At the same time, he was looking for a chance to give back something of equal value.After all, they were friends. It was only natural to return the favor.Harvey declined Sienna’s offer for lunch.He could see the bodyguards in Sienna’s car giving him fierce looks.If Harvey wasn’t Sienna’s savior, the bodyguards would’ve already rushed out and pushed him away from Sienna.Harvey didn’t mind. After all, Big Boss must be taking extra care of his daughter.After what had happened last night, Big Boss would never allow any man to be alone with Sienna.Most importantly, Harvey didn’t want to catch Big Boss’s attention.He was not only uninterested in being an elder of the country’s military force, but he also had no intention of being the Head Coach of the nine strongest military forces.All he wanted to
Harvey knew that the incident wouldn’t end so easily.Still, he didn’t think that the John family would go after him when he just left the police station.But judging from this, Harvey could tell that the John family was enraged.From their perspective, they were completely humiliated when they were at a crucial moment of becoming a top-rated family.They were working together with the Indians as well.If they couldn’t give the Indians a fair statement about the incident, their collaboration would end for sure!The John family couldn’t accept that.“You don’t have a say in that! We do!”The backdoor of a Toyota Alphard slowly opened.An elderly man clad in a tuxedo and with well-kept white hair walked out at a steady pace.He then shot a disdainful glare at Harvey.“The moment you went against the John family, you should already know the consequences.”“There’s no need to be afraid. We didn’t come here to kill you—we came here to cripple you and throw you to the Celestial T
Butler John chuckled coldly. Then, a gloomy look settled on his face. “Do you honestly think we’ll give you a chance?!”“Go! Cripple him already!”The golden-robed people took a step forward at the same time, their eyes cold. Every single one of their movements was synched to a tee, to the point even their breathing was the same. It was quite an eerie sight.Harvey chuckled.“You’re going to cripple me?”“With these three here?”“Stop dreaming.”Harvey took a step forward.“There’s no point wasting time.”“Why don’t you come at me too?”“All of us at once? You have no right to make Butler John do the dirty work!”Butler John gave a wretched laugh.“You three! Go together!”“Stop wasting time!”The golden-robed people nodded before waving their hands. Right after that, hidden arrows flew right at Harvey at light speed.Harvey knew that the arrows were dangerous when he saw his enemies’ confident looks.He took a few steps back instead of charging ahead.Boom, boom, bo
The men of the Northsea Tigers gave wretched smiles.“I don’t care who you are, but you have no right to meddle in the John family’s affairs!”Ansel calmly took a step forward before swinging his sword.The swing wasn’t fast, but a glare resembling moonlight could be seen.The expression of the man who spoke changed immediately.He could feel that he was being targeted by Ansel’s attack.The slash seemed very slow in his eyes, almost to the point where he felt he could just block it.But somehow, he felt that he was slower than the slash…What did this mean?The attack was already way faster than any human could comprehend!Simply put, there was no way he could defend himself against it!Even so, he didn’t just sit there and take it.He gritted his teeth and quickly waved his hand, shooting his hidden arrows.Everyone could finally see Ansel’s hit landing.They thought that the entire place would be shattered into pieces, but the man only fell to the ground, paralyzed. Hi
“State my name?”“You say that as if you can exact your revenge if I tell you who I am.”“If it wasn’t for my identity, I could’ve killed you a hundred times over by now.”Ansel shot her a frosty look. The remaining people who left standing were frantically twitching their eyes.They immediately took off the safeties of their firearms, but their weapons felt so unusually cold and heavy at that very moment.Harvey looked at what was happening, curious. When he had chosen to retire a long time ago, Ansel did the same. Ansel wasn’t a God of War yet back then.Even so, Ansel had been training nonstop ever since. He would be able to break through and become a new God of War if the opportunity were to show itself!Harvey was pleasantly surprised by Ansel’s skill.There was no need for him to fight as much, after all.“I was wondering who it was! You’re Director Torres!”Butler John finally recognized Ansel as everyone was frozen in place.“The well-renowned Director Torres posse
An hour later. In the side hall of the John family’s manor, a handsome-looking man in a suit kicked Butler John ruthlessly to the ground.“Did Ansel really say that?”“Who gave him the courage?!”“Does he think he can do whatever he wants here just because he can fight?”“Did he forget that my uncle crippled his father with just a single move?!”“Does he think he can control the John family just because he’s the director of the Flutwell Police Station?!”“Ignorant fool!”The handsome man revealed an extremely cold expression.He was none other than the young master of the family, Elliot John!Dahlia was his sister.After hearing about the incident last night, Elliot had already planned to deal with the situation for his sister and reclaim the family’s dignity in the process. He didn’t care who was in the wrong at all.And so, he ordered the Northsea Tigers to take action. With Butler John, who had always done his job flawlessly accompanying them, Elliot thought it would be e
An elderly man in his fifties walked forward with crossed arms.The man was the head of the John family, Gavin John.He was Elliot’s father, and also the brother of the Golden Palace’s top talent.“Ansel means nothing.”“Even if he’s a God of War, he’s still no match for the Golden Palace.”“However, the Head Coach is not to be trifled with!”“We won’t talk about the Euro-American battle, but the one after—the first world war in the middle east.”“Because of the Head Coach, the Gods of War from other countries didn’t dare to step inside the borders of Country H. This alone should be enough to prove just how scary that man is.”“Before making sure of the Torres family’s relationship with that man…”“It won’t be wise to go against them right now.”“Let Ansel protect Harvey as he pleases.”“Why go against a man with such great support for someone you don’t even know?”Gavin looked bitterly at Elliot.“Next time, use your head instead of your emotions. Stop saying these stupid
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
Elric was an experienced man. As someone who had survived and thrived in the business world for so long, he knew what Jon meant. Jon had not even done anything, but he already said he had nothing to do with its failure. And he even wanted Elric to sign a declaration.In short, Jon was already boasting when he said he had a 30% chance of success.When the thought crossed his mind, Elric squinted his eyes and took a deep breath. He waved his hand and signaled his secretary to give him a bank draft. Then, he laid it before Jon, saying, "Master Jon, 30% chance is still too low for me, so you don't have to do anything. Please take this 150 thousand dollars as compensation for coming all the way here."Jon smiled and picked up the bank draft, putting it in his pocket without hesitation. Then, he said as if he remembered something, "You're pretty wise in the way of the world, Mr. Elric. Usually, those in our industry won't recommend someone else even if we fail in a task. But seeing that y
"A charlatan?" Elric was shaking. "What do you mean?"Pamela smiled coldly. "That day when he saw me, that little bastard told me I won't live past 40 years old. He made it sound so believable too! In reality, whoever believed him was the real fool. While I'm feeling a little unlucky lately, once Master Jon is here, everything will be solved!"You should kill that charlatan as quickly as possible. I'm getting angry just thinking about him!" said Pamela. The moment she stood up, she suddenly felt her world spinning and instantly collapsed on her bed.Elric shuddered, instinctively wanting to call for the doctors in the health resort. However, Pamela gritted her teeth and said, "Quick, give Master Jon a call. My time is really running short here…"Half an hour later, Elric paced back and forth in the health resort's VIP room with his hands behind his back. Not far away from him was Pamela, who was already lying in bed with her face pale despite how energetic she had been earlier.Sh
"Mr. Stanton, I'm someone who likes to give second chances. However, I won't keep on giving those chances away," Harvey said to Elric as he stood up. Then, he picked up a paper towel from the table and wiped Elric's face."That's why I'm going to give you one final chance. Come see me once you have thought things through. You can choose to either give up and watch me dethrone you as the next chairman, or agree to my demands so that I will withdraw my candidacy. Don't appear in front of me anymore before you think things through. I've been quite busy recently, and I'm not in the mood to waste time with you…"After that, Harvey ignored Elric who wanted to say something and left with his hands behind his back. Elric had only regained his composure some time later, but even then he couldn't stop his eyes from twitching.He wasn't a gangster from the streets, but a truly important figure. He could already tell a lot of things from Mr. Lee's attitude. Harvey's identity was now revealed
"Why you little…!" When Mr. Lee heard Harvey was telling him to kneel, he could feel himself at the boiling point. However, he suddenly saw the badge right in front of him. He was instinctively startled, feeling his vision was covered in red.The others might not know what that thing was, but how could he not know? It was the Longmen Association's Scion Badge!Which also meant that the young man in front of him was the scion of the Longmen Association!The moment Mr. Lee realized it, he didn't hesitate and instantly kneeled on the floor with a thump. Blood instantly splattered the moment his knees hit the ground. He didn't even scream despite the pain, and he didn't even channel his energy to resist the pain.He kneeled there with his back straight like a child who had committed a grave crime, shuddering.Elric's expression turned blank. Even someone who had traveled far and wide like him didn't understand what had happened. A second ago, Mr. Lee was still yelling at Harve
