“Don’t be too stubborn, Harvey York!“You’re still young! There are things that you still can’t handle!Ai Kamino blew out a puff of smoke before he sat up straight.“I admit that I have underestimated you.“But even if you have the Torres family with you, you have no right to do as you please!“For instance, you should be respecting me right now.“After all, you have no right to go against the person behind me.”Then, Ai snapped his fingers before his secretary walked over with a case.Ai opened the case and took out a business card before setting it right on Harvey’s coffee table.Clyde Osborne!There was nothing else on the card besides wild scribbles of the name!The calligraphy felt powerful yet elegant. An aura of invincibility and dominance could be felt just by merely looking at the card!“Clyde Osborne?”Harvey frowned. He was not familiar with the name.Ai showed a profound look on his face.“That’s right. Prince Osborne himself.“I visited his place before co
“Seems like you’re no ordinary person either. At least you have some experience.“You wouldn’t be able to guess that Prince Osborne is from one of the five hidden families if that weren’t the case.Ai Kamino nodded with pride and confidence, blatantly showing on his face.“Since you know what sort of person Prince Osborne is, I’m sure we’ll have a great talk.”Ai then took out a list before throwing it right before Harvey York.Other than Mrs. Lee’s compensation, Film City’s losses for the past few days were also written on the list, along with Senior Miller’s medical fees among other things. Every single thing was written in detail.“You’ll have to compensate for the amount listed here tenfold. Do you understand me?” said Ai while squinting at Harvey.Harvey merely shrugged before showing a smile on his face.“If I wasn’t looking closely, I really thought you were the one compensating my sister-in-law’s losses.“Heh!”Ai disdained Harvey’s sharp tongue. At this moment, he lo
At that moment, a dozen Longmen disciples were following Bowen Lee. It was a truly dominant and spectacular sight.Ai Kamino instinctively stood up as soon as he saw Bowen.He respectfully nodded before smiling coldly at Harvey York.“Speak of the devil.“You’re finished, kid.“Looks like Branch Leader Lee’s in a bad mood…“I don’t think I can help you at this point.“You’re on your own.”After hearing Ai’s words and Bowen’s gloomy expression, Senior Miller and the beautiful women were all looking at Harvey gleefully.‘All this guy does is show off!’‘Who knew that karma would bite back this quick?!’‘Not only is he going against Mr. Kamino, even Branch Leader Lee is here to trample all over him!’Under Ai’s exhilarated gaze, Bowen walked briskly toward Harvey before slamming his knees on the ground.The people behind him kneeled in unison with horrified expressions on their faces.Ai froze before instinctively gasping.“What are you doing, Branch Leader Lee?”Bowen com
Harvey York walked up and patted Ai Kamino’s face before he sighed.“Even Joseph Bauer couldn’t protect Mrs. Lee…“Even Longmen couldn’t keep Bowen Lee safe.“Then, what makes you think Clyde Osborne can enable you to flaunt your strength here?“I didn’t want to deal with you anymore, but I’ll indulge you if you insist on butting in.”Harvey then slowly tore the business card to pieces.The beautiful women were heartbroken, as if Harvey had committed a heinous crime.Ai’s expression also frantically changed.“How dare you tear Prince Osborne’s card, you b*stard?!“You have a death wish or something?!”Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm across Ai’s face.“I’m not so sure about that…“But I know that you’re looking for yours right now.“Come.“Call the cops.Harvey’s word was enough to seal Ai’s face.“Ai Kamino tried to blackmail me for a hundred and fifty million dollars! Punish him according to the law!”***In just half an hour, Vivian Hall and her team took A
Ai Kamino immediately trotted toward Clyde Osborne before respectfully bowing.“Prince Osborne.”Clyde rinsed his mouth with the seventy-six thousand dollar Red Robe Tea before he said, “Do you think this is a scenic spot, Ai?”Those calm words were enough to astound Ai.He came here on the same morning, but then he showed up once again.This could only mean that Ai did not deal with the arrogant young man he had previously talked about.Not only that, but he also probably lost his reputation in the process.If not, he would not have shown up that quickly.Cold sweat was dripping down Ai’s entire body.“I’m sorry, Prince Osborne. I have tarnished your name. I couldn’t carry out my job properly,” he apologized quietly with his arms on the side.“I wanted to reclaim your reputation for what happened before. That was why I asked for your business card.“But that man tore the card apart and even sent all of us to jail.Ai would not dare lie to Clyde about a single thing.“Righ
After hearing Ai Kamino’s words, Clyde Osborne comfortably leaned on his seat while enjoying the service of two beautiful handmaidens.“It’s already pretty impressive having the Torres family backing him for this long.“You may not know this, but the Wright family also has connections with the Torres family.“Even the Bauer family might not go up against them!“With the Torres family’s support, he does have the right to flaunt his strength in Flutwell!”“The Wright family?Ai’s facial expression changed slightly.“The Big Boss’s family?”Clyde merely showed a faint smile.“Flutwell might only seem like the borderland of the southwest region, but its waters are deeper than anyone can imagine.“Harvey has been popping up everywhere, challenging everyone in his wake. I even received reports that he went against the Indians recently.“I’m guessing he might be one of the Torres family’s pawns!”Ai could not look away when he showed envy toward Clyde being served by two goddesses
“Oh? How beautiful are we talking about here?”Clyde Osborne seemed to perk up after hearing Ai Kamino’s words.Ai already prepared a few pictures on his phone this morning to send to Clyde.Clyde looked at his phone for a moment before he burst out laughing.“One’s a mature housewife, and the other’s an innocent school beauty. Interesting. These two are really intriguing…“Since it’s rare to get sisters like them, I’ll have to take action myself.Clyde then waved at the secretary not far from him.“Call Commissioner Thompson.”***While Clyde was making a phone call, Harvey York did not even care about the incident anymore.After taking care of Xynthia Zimmer, he called a cab to the center of Flutwell while curiously looking through the contracts.He came to an antique Budokan. It was as silent as the grave.The Budokan has more than a decade’s history. Bowen Lee inherited the place from his father. The name of the place was called the Martial Hall.The name was very clas
“There are about a hundred students here in the Martial Hall.“Teachers used not to have time for the students…“That was why we hired ten instructors to teach them.“Every instructor is an expert martial artist from a well-known family.“They are in charge of ten students each. They also do a pretty good job.“There’s no need for you to manage the Martial Hall after you take over.“With these instructors here, all you need to do is collect the money.Dillon Lee showed a pleasing look on his face.“You might not know since you haven’t seen the ledger, Sir York.“It wouldn’t be hard for the Martial Hall to earn fifteen million dollars annually.”Harvey was surprised.“You can get this much money just by teaching?”Dillon showed a proud expression.“Well, of course. The branch leader of Longmen’s Flutwell branch is teaching here. Training in this place is the same as being Longmen’s outer disciple. Anyone will look good when they enroll here.“Many wealthy heirs were willin
"What are you doing? Why didn't you crawl and go on your knees when you saw your master return, and you keep on screaming when the Xavier family of Wolsing is just a vassal of Country A Xavier Inc!"Didn't that old man Nashon ever teach you what to do? Your attitude makes Country A Xavier Inc. very sad! Even a dog I raise won't bite me, but all you do is keep barking!" reprimanded Linus as he kept shaking his head as if he had got the wrong dog.But the most important part was that such words were aimed at the Xaviers of Wolsing, one of the top ten families of Country H. While shocking, it also showed just how domineering Country A Xavier Inc. is.Nashon's expression also instantly turned dark.But before he could say anything, Yvonne snorted and said, " Country A Xavier Inc? They're just one branch of our family who betrayed our family. They're just a conglomerate that managed to expand their business after running away into Country A! And now you dare to come here to treat the pl
Vroom!Just as Harvey and the others were almost finished and were about to move on to tea and desserts, the sounds of engines roaring suddenly came from the side door where they were having lunch.At the same time, there were also the sounds of the Xavier family's security guards calling and yelling.But for some reason, the usually stubborn security guards could not stop the engine sounds from getting closer. Very quickly, twelve Black Badge Rolls-Royce drove over and stopped right at the entrance of the side chamber with arrogance.All the artificial hills, flowers, and grass were in a mess.Thump! Thump! Thump!Instantly, dozens of men in military uniforms opened the door and exited from their cars. Their eyes were full of spirit and full of vitality. It was obvious that they were all martial arts elites. Other than that, there were also dozens of elite men and women wearing suits and leather shoes.Then, two sexy secretaries walked over to the car's back seat and opened the
"Harvey's here," Nashon smiled when he saw Harvey arrive. His smile was even brighter than usual when he knew Harvey had agreed to sign the contract.Obviously, Nashon was getting increasingly happy with this man who might become his family's son-in-law in the future."Come, let me introduce someone to you. Behind Yvonne is my granddaughter and Yvonne's cousin, Sia Xavier."Meanwhile, Harvey gave Sia a strange look. She was a young woman who was of 18-years-of-age. She had just matured, and an innocent aura surrounded her. Her plump face and her hourglass figure made her have both innocence and lust.If she were to download a particular streaming app and start streaming, she would instantly get tens of millions of fans very quickly."Come, this is Harvey." Obviously, Yvonne also doted on her cousin.Sia's eyes landed on Harvey briefly, and she weakly greeted, "Brother-in-law…"When Yvonne heard that, her face turned red, and Harvey's expression instantly froze as he almost fell
Harvey sighed. "I thought so too; that's why I gathered everyone here. Why don't all of you give it a look and see what we should do? Should we sign the contract?"Harvey said in a helpless tone. "The old man also said that I don't have to worry. This is not part of Yvonne's assets if she marries over… That the Xavier family wouldn't be such a cheapskate…"The atmosphere became even more awkward. Everyone knew that Yvonne only had her eyes on Harvey, but Harvey's attitude was unclear. After receiving this 10% share, Sky Corporation will be completely bonded with Xavier Corporation.Perhaps Nashon also wanted to use this chance to improve Harvey and Yvonne's relationship a little more.Tyson grinned and said, "Boss, seeing that Yvonne treats you that well, why don't you just marry into the Xavier family and become their live-in son-in-law? That's one of the top ten families in Country H, and if Sky Corporation works with them, we might have a fighting chance even if we're going agai
"Then, it has been decided," Nashon replied and waved his hand, stopping whatever Yvonne wanted to say. "You can treat this as compensation, or you can treat this as us adding more duties to you. Regardless, from now onward, the only person who has authority over you within this family is me. "Even your cousin Jesse will be under your command when necessary. If there are no accidents, then you'll be the next matriarch of the Xavier family."Nashon then smiled at Harvey and said, "Harvey, I have a suggestion. Since we're on this topic, I wonder if you'd consider it. We, the Xaviers of Wolsing, lack a live-in son-in-law. If you're willing to, it's fine even if the patriarch of the Xavier family uses the last name York, right?"Harvey was speechless. The old man would do everything to drag him down into the mud!"So, are you happy with my explanation?" Nashon gave Harvey a meaningful smile and an even more meaningful look. Obviously, if Harvey nodded, wealth beyond his imagination wo
"As for using Sheldon to force Yvonne, now you must understand that all this is just a scheme. No matter how far our family has fallen, we don't have to explain our scheme to outsiders, correct?' Nashon smiled faintly. While his words were quite soft, Harvey's inquisition of him was useless.Harvey narrowed his eyes. While he had always known the old man would be quite a handful, he did not realize he would be so hard to deal with. Nashon laughed and waved his hand when he noticed the slight change in Harvey's expression.Shortly after, a maid walked over with an ancient wine flask, next to sleek wine glasses.Nashon picked up the flask, poured the two glasses full, and winked at Harvey. "Come, Harvey. Why don't we taste this Spirit Wine that I frequently obtained from an auction recently?""Spirit Wine?"Harvey frowned and narrowed his eyes. He could sense that the wine was not some ordinary wine, but he did not know why Nashon suddenly wanted to bring this thing out.When Nasho
"I don't think so. You never underestimated me," replied Harvey, with conviction. "Meanwhile, I did underestimate the Xavier family's ambition. You used my hand to destroy the Shinto Way's foundation so you could take everything they owned within our country. Aren't you afraid you'll get too full if you eat everything in one go?"Jesse, who had not said anything until now, narrowed his eyes as he heard what Harvey had to say. He did not expect Harvey to have already figured everything out alone.Meanwhile, there was little to no change in Nashon's expression. He simply smiled and said, "Don't worry about us. While we have used you, but you can't blame us since Yvonne is our scheme's most important piece. To us, all she needed to do was to act as bait. As for who were the ones coming for the bait… That would be our consideration."Harvey's expression became cold. "If I never came, won't Yvonne fall into the hands of the Islanders?""And will you allow it?" Nashon laughed. "Even if y
Third ring of Wolsing, ten in the evening.Compared to the dilapidated Island Nation embassy in the outer ring, the Xavier residence in the third ring of Wolsing looked mysterious and solemn. Not long after leaving the embassy, he did not waste his breath and immediately told Jesse to lead the way and bring him and Yvonne back to the Xavier of Wolsing.He had to explain certain things even if it was to the top ten families of Country H. Otherwise, this would not be a complete scheme. Jesse said nothing and simply led the way in silence.The three swiftly walked through winding paths past corridors, lakes, and artificial hills. In the end, they arrived at an old building in the middle of the residence.While this place looked empty and deserted, the reality was that this place was filled with lethal dangers. Those who came here without informing the people here ahead would not even know how they died.The candle in the old candle holder was burning within the building. While it was
Whoosh!Aya gave it her all, but Harvey simply swung his sword. But Harvey's seemingly underwhelming attack defended against Aya's explosive offensive. Aya did not choose to retreat after her attack failed. Her princess pride did not allow her to retreat simply.She took a deep breath and gave her 120%. Her power and speed were much faster when she attacked again. However, the moment the attack was going to fall, Aya shuddered. Because she noticed that Harvey's eyes had always been so cold from the very beginning…It was as if he had seen through life and death…It was as if he had seen through her life and death…Unspeakable despair grew in Aya's heart, and she felt that her sight began to be covered in darkness. A cold aura seemed to cover her from all directions, making it hard for her to breathe.Clang!At this moment, Harvey's swing clashed with Aya's full-powered strike. However, Aya could simply feel her hand shaking and her right hand numbed. And then, the blade of her s
