While Harvey was busy slapping Jeff relentlessly…A bodyguard of the Bauer family charged forward courageously as he took off the safety of his firearm.“You little b*stard!” he yelled fiercely as he pointed at Harvey.“How dare you talk to the young master like that! Who gave you the courage?!”“Not only are you blaming Young Master Bauer for something he didn’t do, but you’re also humiliating him in front of everyone!”“Young Master Bauer was generous enough to leave you alone!”“But I will not allow you to act like this in front of him, no matter what!”Naturally, the bodyguard was already quite infuriated at Harvey.He waved his firearm around, looking confident.“Come at me if you dare!”“If not, I’ll f*cking kill you!”Harvey smiled at the bodyguard.Bang!He swiftly moved the firearm placed on Jeff’s head and pulled the trigger.“Aaagh!”The bodyguard screamed in pain before lying on the ground, covering his injured hand.His firearm had been completely pierced b
Jeff seemed afraid, but the calm yet mocking look in his gaze never faded away.“I can’t prove my innocence.”“There’s no need for me to do such a thing, either.”“If you want to blame me for this so badly, then just shoot me already!”“I even show you a single frown right now, I’ll be nothing more than a coward!”Jeff grabbed a glass of 1982 Lafite wine on the table and took a large swig.He then spread his arms wide, with a smile on his face.“I believe that the world is just.”“Everyone here will surely bring me justice for this!”Upon hearing Jeff’s words, Clare’s expression changed constantly. She stood up, gritting her teeth.“If you lay even a single finger on Young Master Bauer…”“Not just the Bauer family, the Osborne family will fight you to the death as well!” she exclaimed coldly.“You should know what the top ten families and the five hidden families represent!”“Are you sure you want yourself, your family, and your friends to be in danger because of your arro
A group of people in black robes charged into Charity Garden, swords in hand.Their heads were raised high, and their hands were heavily callused. It was apparent that they were experts.They moved orderly and surrounded Jeff’s men as soon as they got inside.Langston looked horrified. “Rachel?! What are you doing here with your men?”Clare was immediately furious.“ Longmen’s Law Enforcement have no business being here!”“You think you can get yourself involved in anything that you want?!”The rest of the crowd watched with frantically twitching eyes.Everyone in Flutwell knew what Longmen’s Law Enforcement represented.They were Longmen’s police force.Not only were they powerful, but they also wielded powerful authority. They were granted special permission to take out whoever was necessary before making their reports by the royal court.Recently, Rachel had been rising to power within Flutwell’s upper social circle.A lot of people understood how she operated.Whi
“I’d like to see how you’ll get out of the situation after acting so high and mighty!”“You’ll regret it soon enough! You’ll pay for your ignorance!”The mistresses bore ugly, wretched looks.They were already used to Jeff’s arrogance and dominant attitude.Usually, they would usually be the ones humiliating others behind Jeff.When had they been on the receiving end? Thus, they couldn’t accept this fact.Rachel showed no emotion, unaffected by their outbursts.“Even if God shows up in the flesh, I’ll still stand with Sir York!”“Anyone who goes after him, dies!”Langston and the others were horrified. Everyone knew Rachel was the vice head of Longmen’s Law Enforcement. She was considered to be half a citizen of Flutwell.Despite that, she was working for an outsider with reckless abandon!Her attitude toward the situation would only cause more confusion.“I have to admit, you’re pretty damn bold!”“Not only did you suppress East Wood Hall, but you also surrounded my
Clare and the other women almost screamed out of fear.Langston and the others watched with frantically twitching eyes; they went weak after seeing what happened in front of them.They could tell Harvey was a dominant man…But they didn’t think he was actually ruthless enough to shoot Jeff!Did he really not fear the consequences?“Ngh!”Jeff’s body swayed to the point he almost fell, but he still gritted his teeth, desperately stopping himself from screaming.A prominent figure like him wouldn’t be able to stand any kind of shame.Harvey pointed his firearm at Jeff’s right arm, his eyes cold. “Where’s Mandy?”Jeff chuckled coldly, his face filled with disdain.“I don’t know!”“Shoot me again if you dare!”The guests were infatuated by his show of courage and quietly cheered him on. ‘That’s what a real man looks like!’Ordinary men would’ve given up at this point.“Fine.”Harvey nodded.Bang!This time, he pulled the trigger on Jeff’s right arm.Even the all-power
Jeff’s expression changed once again.He could accept a lot of things…But he couldn’t accept the fact that everything he owned would be given to his two brothers.Especially Joseph!In the past, Joseph was only his follower—his servant.How could he accept the fact that Joseph would be taking his place?After pondering the situation, he finally cast away his useless arrogance and calmed himself down.He would end up a lot worse if he didn’t, after all.“Let me call someone,” he said, his face a horrible expression.Rachel smiled, and took the phone out of his pocket.Jeff then dialed a number. A cold voice could be heard from the other side.“What are your orders, Young Master Bauer?”Jeff’s expression changed before he exclaimed, “Send Mandy Zimmer back to Hearthstone Corporation right now!”Jeff slowly pushed the firearm away from his head, remaining absolutely calm. “One more thing,” he said, his eyes blank as he looked at Harvey.“I decided to give you back the mon
Elanor had a faint smile when she saw Harvey calming down.She glanced at Harvey with a profound look on her face, and said quietly, “I have to admit, you’re very bold. The things you do are out of the ordinary.”“You killed your way to Charity Garden all by yourself, then you humiliated Young Master Bauer before shooting him in the arms.”“Aren’t you scared of him lashing out?”Elanor’s voice seemed to grow a little colder.“Am I supposed to call you reckless or bold?”A hint of rage could be seen in Elanor’s distant expression.Instead of losing her classy persona, the unspeakable aura she exuded was amplified by the emotions inside her.She had a face that was asking for punishment, yet, any man would want to be with her.She would be hated at first, but any man would want to conquer her after being with her for a while.“Are you done talking?”Harvey showed no emotion.“Sit down already.”“I’m already giving you enough respect for letting you off the hook for what happ
Elanor’s expression changed; drops of sweat could be seen gliding down her head.She didn’t expect Harvey to be this hard to deal with, and that he was able to see through Jeff so easily.Simply put, Jeff’s actions were as clear as day to Harvey.Harvey narrowed his eyes at Elanor for a while before flashing her a small smile.“But don’t worry.”“Since I’m here, that means I’m willing to work together with your young master despite his schemes.”“After all, we’ll all get what we need in this cooperation.”“You staying here is enough to show Jeff’s attitude toward the situation.”“Why don’t you tell me what Jeff wants me to do instead?”“I’ll be able to let go of today’s grudge, and I’ll happily cooperate with him.”Elanor finally let out a sigh upon hearing Harvey’s words.She thought Harvey would go against Jeff without hesitation because of Mandy’s kidnapping.But judging from the situation, Harvey had his bottom line and his way of doing things as well.Since Jeff didn’
