“With the money, you’ll get five percent of the company’s shares.”“You should be able to tell that Hearthstone Corporation has a bright future ahead.”“With the shares, whether you want to go abroad or stay in a top-tier city in the country, you’ll be able to enjoy glory and riches for the rest of your life.”“Is this not better than being a nameless woman?”Harvey didn’t hide anything from Elanor at all; he wanted her with Hearthstone Corporation.After all, he knew that both he and Mandy wouldn’t be able to stay in Flutwell for long.But with someone like Elanor, the company would surely function without any problems.Elanor froze. Then, she chuckled shyly.“Sir York, you don’t seem like you’re trying to win me over. You sound like you’re planning to take care of a mistress or something!”She knew Harvey wasn’t only winning her over to protect the company…It was more likely she was asked to work for him.After being with Jeff for so many years, Elanor knew Flutwell like
Bang, bang, bang!The Indians wasted no time pulling the trigger at Harvey.Bullets were all over the place; everywhere was covered in fog and smoke.Anyone else would’ve turned into colanders at this point.“Look out!” Elanor exclaimed instinctively.Harvey pushed Elanor’s body to the corner of the VIP room.At the same time, he twisted his body before charging straight ahead.After dodging every single bullet, he jumped in front of the Indians and beat them up.Slap, slap, slap!Loud slaps could be heard as the Indians were all sent flying. They were all unconscious when they fell to the ground. Nobody knew whether they were dead or alive…‘So strong!’‘So dominant!’The bodyguards of the Bauer family were shocked silly at the sight.They didn’t expect Harvey to actually be this terrifying!Harvey instantly sent the experts flying with ease.‘Is this guy invincible?’Elanor was shivering in fear before Harvey walked over and slowly caressed her head; she managed to ca
The bodyguard was boiling with anger.“Don’t you dare slander me, you b*stard!”“If you didn’t do as you pleased and kill the bull, causing the business to plummet…”“Why would I do something like this in the first place?!”“You brought this on yourself!”Harvey smiled.“Is that so?”“These Indians are armed to the teeth with military equipment.”“Can’t you tell that something’s clearly wrong here?”“Besides, how much could they give you if they were just using a venue here for training?”“In the first place, why would you take such a big risk if you didn’t get anything yourself?”“They clearly came prepared, too.”“If I wasn’t skilled enough, everyone here besides you would’ve died.”“And if we die, all you need to do is tell Jeff that the Indians came after me for revenge and killed CEO Stanton in the crossfire after you clean up the scene a little. You’d be able to get as far away from here as possible while living your high life.”“You can try to refute me, but I don’
“Really, now?”“What? Do you actually think you’re impressive? You think you’re untouchable because of your strong background?”“Or do you think you’re a part of the Bauer family just because you have the same surname?”Harvey revealed a faint smile after hearing the man’s words.The man laughed coldly.“The Fifth Mistress should know this. Young Master Bauer himself put me here to spy on her every single move!”“Besides, I’m a distant relative of the Bauer family!”“It’s not much, but it’s still blood!”“If you touch me, not only will you lose Young Master Bauer’s trust, but you’ll also get into big trouble!”The man showed regret at this point.“I’ll admit! This was my fault.”“That said, there’s still ample time for us to play, Harvey!”“You won’t get so lucky next time!”Harvey smiled when he saw the man’s arrogant look.“Do you think you can be ignorant just because you have a bit of a connection to the Bauer family?”“Yeah! I’m Young Master Bauer’s personal guard,
Upon hearing Jeff’s words, the man with a buzzcut was filled with pride. He naturally knew that things were going to end this way.Elanor’s eyes twitched while holding the phone. She wanted to say something, but she couldn’t utter a single word.She had been extremely loyal to Jeff, but she didn’t imagine he never cared about her life at all when he was plotting against Harvey.Jeff wouldn’t even feel a thing if she died after being dragged into the crossfire…Elanor felt her heart growing colder at this very moment.“Make sure to remember who the master is?”Harvey casually grabbed Elanor’s phone. He smiled as he replied to Jeff on the other side.“Only I have the right to say that. Not you.”“So what if I beat the sh*t out of your lackey right now?”Bam!Harvey instantly sent the man flying with a single kick; the man slammed right into a wall. Nobody knew if he was alive or not after such a violent attack…Even if he was, all of his bones were definitely broken; he was de
Elanor let out a sigh. Then, she said quietly, “Young Master Bauer…”“Enough. Let’s not talk about this.”Jeff waved his hand to cut her off.“How are your injuries?”“Were you scared?”“That b*stard was one of mine, but he still tried to kill you! He deserves death!”Jeff clapped his hands. Right after that, someone handed a firearm to him.He pulled the trigger without even bothering to look at the man with the buzzcut.Blood splattered all over the place. Jeff hugged Elanor tightly, a tender look on his face.“Don’t worry. Even if he’s my trusted subordinate, I’d kill him for going against you like that!”“I’ll even kill him a thousand times over if I have to!”“I promise, nobody will be able to hurt you ever again!”Despite seeing Jeff’s attitude and decisiveness to stand up for her, Elanor didn’t feel a hint of warmth at all; a cold shiver went down her spine at that instant.She knew she was just like that man; she was only alive because she was still beautiful and
While Jeff was planning to make a spot for another woman…On the next day, inside the Martial Hall’s courtyard…Harvey swayed on his rocking chair comfortably for a while before opening his eyes to a morning glow.“Did you get anything from George yet, Rachel?”“He sent everything this morning.”Rachel poured a cup of fragrant black tea beside Harvey with a warm smile.“Just as we know, Jeff has half of Longmen’s support along with the Inner and Outer Halls.”“Other than that, some of the elders within Longmen sided with him as well.”“On the surface, Jeff sure looks like the strongest young master out of the entire Bauer family. He has immense authority too…”“The government of Flutwell, the military force, and the underworld are all filled with his men.”“That said, the all-powerful young master has a deadly weakness as well.”“He seems pretty young, but he’s just great at taking care of himself.”“In reality, he’s already nearing his forties. Not only is he ten years old
“Judging from the current situation, though, we still need his influence in Flutwell to deal with Joseph.”“It’s not time for us to go against Jeff yet.”Harvey stood up.“We should still deal with Joseph as soon as possible…”Rachel’s eyes grew cold. “Sir York, we’re probably going to take Joseph down sooner or later.”“However, will the other forces take advantage of this when we do?”“Probably. Probably not,” Harvey replied.“Flutwell’s waters aren’t that deep. We’ll make the waters murkier after we deal with Joseph. That way, we’ll be able to take advantage of everything.” “Come. We’re running a street stall.”Half an hour later, Harvey showed up in front of the Bauer family’s courtyard entrance.This was Joseph’s place of stay; Harvey came to the front and told Rachel to set up a stall here, with the Martial Hall sign hung up.Because of the Martial Hall, more than half the students who trained in the chain Budokans were woken up. Their bodies were all mostly recover
