Soon, students and their families flooded the Martial Hall like a huge tide.Harvey had already prepared for the situation. He was determined to charge the students for fourteen thousand dollars; he didn’t want to pretend to be nice. If the families didn’t have money, he would tell them to ask Flutwell’s business alliance for it.At the same time, he taught Layne and the other instructors the tricks he used to save the students of the chain Budokans.Under his lead, the students were completely back to normal after coughing out blood.Some of the media didn’t believe that there was someone who had the power to cure the students. And so, they dragged the students to inspect their bodies, and ended up shocked.The students who seemed like they were dead for sure had ordinary body readings. The reporters were absolutely baffled.Soon, Martial Hall and Harvey’s name echoed throughout Flutwell.After a series of events, many people realized that the Martial Hall was probably the best
“Didn’t I tell those b*stards already?!”“The students’ meals have nutritional supplements inside! They need to take the supplements we sell after graduation as well!”“We’ll be able to earn money endlessly that way! They’ll be safe and sound as well!”“Why did this happen?!”Joseph’s eyes were cold; his teaching manual and supplements go hand in hand.Other than making the students stronger, he could also reap their money…Why did something like this have to happen to his near-flawless plan?“Did something happen to our supplements? No! Impossible!”“This is our lifeline! Our assembly line’s extremely strict! We wouldn’t make anything shady in the first place!”“That b*stard Harvey even picked the perfect time to save the students! There’s no way they’ll train with us ever again…”“This was clearly an attack!”Ruby frowned.“This all happened because the students passed out…”“But there’s no way the breakfast would be the problem.”“We added addictive drugs to the food a
“There’s something big going on, Young Master Bauer!”Right as Ruby was about to make a phone call, Ozzy rushed in with an excited look.“Look! Look at the news! Someone’s trying to kill Harvey!”Joseph froze. Then, he glanced at the TV.Ruby picked up the remote and changed the channel.Joseph’s face darkened immediately after.Hundreds of men with masks showed up.They were all carrying knives, metal pipes, and wooden sticks, and were fiercely chasing the students and their families away.They even said that they would burn the Martial Hall down!More importantly, they were all wearing clothes that belonged to Flutwell’s business alliance.They had arrogant looks on their faces as they announced that Joseph was their master, and that he was the true master of the Bauer family.Someone even kicked and smashed the things around whenever they could.The newly-renovated door was completely destroyed again.That said, not only were they not able to take down the Martial Hall,
“Sir York really knows how to torture someone’s heart…”The next day, after Joseph had exploded in anger because of the incident, Jeff was squinting at the TV on the wall while his arms were covered in bandages.The person attentively massaging his legs was none other than the fifth mistress, Elanor.She was wearing a traditional gown, but the curve of her body was showing slightly because of the thin silk around her chest and waist.A few doctors couldn’t help taking a few admiring glances, but they were quickly scared off by Jeff.“This was definitely Harvey’s doing.”Elanor flashed hima beautiful smile.“Because of our alliance with Harvey, Joseph and Flutwell’s business alliance are at the center of attention.”“With Joseph’s smarts, he knows he should be very discreet about things.”“He’d have a death wish if he’s still planning to go against Harvey.”“That said, those who were arrested confessed that they were from Flutwell’s business alliance after being interrogated!”
Naturally, Harvey and Rachel promised not to say anything that happened in Charity Garden.The guests naturally kept quiet about the matter as well…Audrey had no idea that her beloved young master got trampled on by Harvey.That was why she was filled with disdain when she saw Harvey on TV.“Other than making other people think that he’s just some small fry who can only pull underhanded tricks, your reputation is also being affected!”“Everyone will wonder how someone like you could stoop so low just to work with him!”“That’s why, I suggest you stop working with him instead!”“You’re the eldest son of your family. You’re destined to rise to power!”“Joseph has no right to compete against your status!”“You should be more aware of that!”“If not, it’ll be bad if the elders start scolding you about it!”“You should stand up and stop Harvey’s actions!”“Joseph and Flutwell’s business alliance won’t be taken down, but it’ll surely bolster your reputation.”“Maybe Joseph migh
Audrey was surprised.“Young Master, even a double-sided firearm wouldn’t be able to hurt you, let alone a blade…”“You don’t get it.”“Not only is Harvey completely insane, but he also doesn’t fear anyone.”“He’s like a ticking time bomb—the ones that’ll explode at any moment.”Naturally, Jeff didn’t think of Audrey as just a plaything.“People like him can definitely benefit us, but they’ll also hurt us in return if we’re not careful…”“That’s why I’m thinking of ways to deal with him when Joseph’s gone.”There was an odd gaze on Jeff.He was showing admiration, fear, and unbridled rage toward Harvey.Whenever he thought of Harvey, his composure shook.Audrey pondered about the situation for a while.“Young Master. Since he’s such a good blade, why don’t we just use him to deal with both Joseph and Harold?”“It’ll be easy for you to kill Harvey after you rise to power, won’t it?”“After I rise to power?”Jeff chuckled coldly.“When he’s done dealing with those two, he
Audrey froze.“That means… Joseph will most likely shift all the blame to you!”“And Harold will think you’re the culprit behind the entire thing?”“He’s probably planning to deal with you as we speak!”“Harvey seemed like your weapon on the surface…”“But in reality, he’s the one wielding you.”“He wanted you and Harold to go against each other after he’s done with Joseph!”“That way, he’ll be the one watching the show behind the scenes!”Jeff showed an expression as cold as ice. He smirked.“I have to admit, Harvey is quite capable.”Jeff was the one who orchestrated the incident, but after Harvey acted, he felt like he was the one getting schemed on.There was admiration and murderous intent in his gaze.In Jeff’s eyes, Harvey was an extremely manipulative and unpredictable man.“Harvey’s insane, Young Master!”“Once Joseph falls, you might be in danger!”Audrey was panicking, since her wealth and glory came hand in hand with Jeff.“You’re an upstanding man, Young Ma
“Sure. I’ll have to show my respect if you say so.”“It doesn’t matter if he’s planning to kill me or not. I’ll go either way.”“Tell him I’ll be there on time.”“I hope he’ll give me a nice surprise.”Harvey's words had a different meaning, but Elanor didn’t understand him.“I’ll make sure to tell him that,” she replied with an innocent look.She calmly sat on the couch and crossed her slender legs, and gestured to Harvey to sit.“Please. I’d say we’re friends now.”“We had a bad start before. Consider this an apology.”“Of course, I’ll do my best to satisfy you if you need anything else.”“These are Young Master Bauer’s orders, of course.”Elanor revealed a meaningful look when she said those words; she was ripe for the picking at that very moment.Any man would never have the capacity to decline such an offer.It was a shame. Elanor’s calm gaze shifted away before it turned to shock.She saw that Harvey was still smiling, but his expression held neither ridicule nor me
