Dahlia John managed to brush over two important figures of the John family not showing up at the mourning hall.Frankie Garcia calmly glanced at Dahlia.“You exaggerate things, Ms. John!“The Bharata Business Council had been in Flutwell for so many years. Eli Burton and the others also had a conflict with the murderer before!“That’s why we know the situation has mostly nothing to do with the John family!“Even without what happened that night, we’d still go against Harvey York somehow.“That said, I’ll admit that we’re at fault for what happened then.“But since Harvey dares to kill Freddy Garcia while he’s resting in the hospital, completely disrespecting the Celestial Temple…“Then it’s only natural for us to demand a fair statement!“An eye for an eye!“That’s the way the world works!”A cold gaze was showing in Frankie’s eyes. He had been living in Flutwell for so many years. He was Joseph Bauer’s very own sworn brother. He had never endured such an embarrassing situat
That said, the royal palace would never allow people outside the borders to establish a school in Country H. That was why the Indians never succeeded for the longest time.But who would have thought that the John family would actually give away such a permit?Even Frankie Garcia, usually calm and collected, could not help but show a tinge of excitement in his eyes.The permit was way more valuable than Freddy Garcia’s life!If Frankie knew that he could exchange Freddy’s life with the permit…He would have ended his life himself!Besides, the Indians would have a chance to invade Country H or maybe even destroy the very cornerstone of the country, Longmen itself!If Country H and India were to go to war, the Indians would obviously reap all the benefits.Simply put, the permit had opened up an opportunity for them.Frankie immediately grabbed the documents without any hesitation.“Ms. John! Please tell this to Mr. John!“As long as the Bharata Business Council is alive, the
“Harvey York?!”The Indians recognized that face.The Indians were boiling with anger when they heard Harvey calling Cody Garcia’s name.All of them pulled out their swords while they furiously screamed. Cold glares surrounded Harvey at that very moment.“Harvey York…”Frankie Garcia froze before he let out a cold chuckle.“Do you have a death wish or something?!“You killed my junior, and now you’re causing trouble in his mourning hall while calling out my master’s name?!“You think you’re all that impressive?!“Have you ever thought of the consequences of going against us?!”Frankie never expected Harvey would just show up on his own accord before the Celestial Temple and the Bharata Business Council even made a move.That man was just crossing the line!Dozens of Indians screamed in anger while charging forward, swinging their swords around, as if they wanted to rip Harvey to shreds.Dahlia John stepped forward with her eyes lit up.“How dare you, Harvey?!“You’re sti
Everyone gasped after hearing Harvey York’s words.They could already tell the truth by then but did not expect Harvey to bring someone to testify for him.Upon closer inspection, the Indians present during the murder that day could tell that the doctor seemed more like the killer than Harvey.Everyone’s hatred was replaced by profound looks on their faces.Dahlia John’s eyes twitched before she stepped forward.“Don’t try to put the blame on us, Harvey!” she exclaimed.“Who do you think the John family is?! Why would we even do such a thing?!“Don’t even try to slander our name!“Maybe this guy’s just some beggar on the street that you’re using against us?!“You better watch your mouth, Harvey!“You’ll pay for spouting stuff like that!”Dahlia seemed extremely confident.She desperately tried to divert Frankie Garcia and the others’ attention so they would ignore Harvey’s words.Frankie squinted for a moment before glaring back at Harvey.“You’re saying that this guy dis
“You b*stard! How dare you accuse the John family of such things?!”Dahlia John’s expression instantly changed after hearing Thirty-Nine’s words. She immediately raised her firearm, planning to gun him down.Bam!Harvey York stepped on the ground making a rock hit Dahlia’s wrist, causing her to miss the shot.“Don’t rush, Ms. John.“At least, not while I’m here.“Since you’re trying to kill the man here, it’s not wrong for me to assume that you told this guy to frame me, right?”Everyone instinctively shifted their gaze at Dahlia when they saw Harvey’s smile.Dahlia’s eyes frantically twitched when she screamed, “You f*cking b*stard, Harvey!“You’d do anything just to tarnish our name?!“We’ll make you pay for this sooner or later!“If you keep going with this, I’ll have your family and friends go down with you!“I’ll dig up your ancestors too!“I’ll burn them all to cinders!”It seemed like Dahlia was threatening Harvey, but she was actually cursing Elliot John at this m
“You’re a smart man, Mr. Garcia!“You should know that Harvey York’s just trying to confuse you with words!“He wants to reap the spoils while staying out of the conflict!”Dahlia John immediately blamed Harvey for everything while showing a confident look.It was as if everything she said was true.Even then, Harvey was quite impressed by Dahlia for being so calm and composed.Harvey stepped forward.“Since you’re so confident, then we should just call the cops.“Director Torres is a fair and just man.“I’m sure he’ll give us an answer we’ll agree on.”Frankie Garcia’s eyes lit up after hearing the statements from both sides. He was showing a serious look on his face at this moment.Then, he took a step forward, as if he had already made his decision.“Don’t you worry, Ms. John!“A despicable man like him will not fool us!“The Bharata Business Council and the John family have our interests aligned! You wouldn’t kill one of our noble Kshatriyas just for your own benefit!
“Enough talk!“Close the damn door!“Nobody leaves until we’re done with Harvey York!” exclaimed Frankie Garcia.Soon after, the courtyard door was closed shut.The outside world was completely isolated at that moment.Nobody could go in and out of the place. Nobody was going to learn the truth about the situation either.“Really? Are you going to let the dogs out now?” asked Harvey calmly.“Do you think this door can stop me from leaving?”“Even God won’t get you out of the situation this time!Frankie chuckled wretchedly.“I said so!“The police had your back the last time, Harvey!“I do want to see who you have behind your back this time!”Harvey calmly raised the sword in his hand before sliding his finger across the blade with a smile.“Who gave you the notion that I needed the police’s help last time?“They might’ve been protecting you people instead.”“What? Are you saying that we’re doomed here?Frankie let out a chuckle.“Are you even worthy?!“Don’t be naiv
Rachel Hardy seemed indifferent when she looked at the Indians resentfully glaring back at her on the ground.She swung her sword once again, cutting down two more Indians who were trying to sneak up on her.Five people lay on the ground without any strength to fight, while the rest showed righteous looks on their faces.They were rattling their swords before they pounced forward.Rachel was not fazed at all by the sight. She stomped on the ground before flying out with her sword in hand.Pfft!The Indian in front trembled and fell to the ground in disbelief when his sword was split into two. Nobody knew if he was still alive or not.Rachel pointed her sword at her back and pierced it right through another person’s hand.Before the Indians could even react, Rachel was already spinning midair before sending another person flying with a single kick.Her movements were abnormally fluid at that moment.After crippling some Indians, Rachel charged forward at the speed of sound bef
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
