“This guy kept slandering me for no reason, claiming I forged your master’s keepsake. He pointed his weapon at me. He’s even planned to kill my entire family and burn my ancestors to a crisp…Harvey York seemed indifferent.“And all you did was cut his pay for six months?“As Jeff Bauer’s subordinate, are you just going to ignore me like that?“Can you sleep at night like this?”Arya’s face immediately darkened after hearing Harvey’s doubts.Lucca let out a cold chuckle.“Who do you think you are, you b*stard?!“We don’t need you to teach us how to do things!“Do you think you can take me down just because you have Eldest Young Master Bauer by your side?“Let me tell you something! I also belong to the Bauer family.“We all have the same blood, even if I’m just a relative!Lucca showed a wretched smile.“It’s already good enough for you that I’m not getting paid!“Lowly people like you have no right to even be mentioned in front of me!“I’ll let you go for Arya’s sake…
Harvey York did not even give him a chance to speak.He threw the blade in his hand right through Lucca Bauer’s throat.Pfft!Blood spurted out of Lucca. Constant gargling could be heard at that moment. It was obvious that Lucca was on the verge of death.After seeing what had happened…Joseph Bauer, who was trembling on the ground after being crippled, was filled with complete shock. He could not believe the sight before him.He did not expect Harvey to be this domineering.Crippling Joseph was nothing…But he even took Lucca’s life right before Arya without showing respect toward Jeff Bauer!Everyone could tell that even God would not be able to save Lucca’s life this time.At this moment, all that was left on his face was resentment, rage, and disbelief.He thought that Arya’s arrival would give him an out despite the fact that Harvey would get away unscathed. That way, he would at least be able to prepare himself before dealing with Harvey again…But he did not think Ha
“Harvey York! You b*stard!”Arya Johnson came to her senses then.She did not believe that Harvey would take Lucca Bauer’s life right before her.After all, she had been giving warnings, saying that this was her rule, Jeff Bauer’s rule…But Harvey could not be bothered.Arya was boiling with anger at that moment.That said, she had no other choice but to accept the truth.She was mad at Harvey for running his mouth however he pleased. If word about this incident spread, Jeff and Harold Bauer’s conflict would be exposed to the public!The conflict between the two would escalate because of this!Harold would even think that Jeff was intentionally provoking him!Jeff would most definitely not benefit from the situation if it escalated this way.Without a second thought, Arya really wanted to strangle Harvey at that very second.“Did you not hear what I just said?!” she exclaimed furiously.“I told you to let Lucca go!“We’re supposed to deal with him when he gets back! You h
Dozens of experts from the Longmen Warband instinctively raised their weapons after hearing Arya Johnson’s orders.All of them were showing fierce looks when they screamed at the experts of the Bauer family, forcing them to retreat.Some of Lucca Bauer’s trusted subordinates wanted to block the path, but they were immediately slapped aside by the Longmen Warband.Even if the experts were completely infuriated, they had no other choice but to make way.Three minutes later, Harvey York casually sat in his Toyota Prado before he made a gesture, signaling Arya’s men to send Lilian Yates to the hospital.Arya’s veins were bulging out of her forehead before she instinctively walked over.“What do you think you’re doing, Harvey?!“Did you not hear what I just said?!“Young Master Bauer prepared a banquet just for you!”“Go back and tell him something…” replied Harvey while he started his car.“Everything that happened just now was completely different than expected.“I don’t feel t
“Joseph Bauer’s completely crippled. Harold Bauer’s trusted subordinate was killed as well…“Jeff Bauer must be ecstatic at this point, right?“Because of this, Harold and I are forced to go against each other.“If I manage to cripple Harold because of this, Jeff can win the battle for the throne without even lifting a finger.Harvey York squinted with a calm look on his face.“Do you think that Harold meant to do all this? Or did Jeff trick him into doing this instead?”Rachel Hardy and the others looked at each other.Harvey was right.The entire incident seemed coincidental, but this was still a little too much.Both Lucca Bauer and Arya Johnson’s appearances seemed a little too deliberate.If this was all part of Jeff’s plans, then he was a lot more scheming than everyone thought.Rachel frantically twitched her eyes.“So, what should we do next, Sir York?” asked Rachel quietly.“Should we continue with Secretary Xavier’s acquisition plan?”“Of course. Why shouldn’t w
While the staff spoke, a few men in security uniforms came over with cautious looks when they glared at Xynthia Zimmer and the others.“We’re here to take over the chain Budokans originally from Flutwell’s business alliance.“We couldn’t inform you ahead of time because of time constraints…“But don’t worry. This is just a normal transfer of property rights. We won’t affect your work.”Xynthia obviously did her homework. She seemed like an experienced woman as soon as she spoke.“My name is Xynthia. Please tell your management about this so we can make a transfer.”Then, Xynthia’s assistant behind her handed over official documents for the staff to read.“You’re taking over the chain Budokans?”The staff seemed quite surprised, but she also knew what had happened the day before. She nodded before turning back inside without saying another word.Soon, a dozen people in traditional clothing walked out with an elegant-looking woman.The woman was none other than Jeff Bauer’s sev
“Enough talk!”Audrey Lopez instantly cut off Xynthia Zimmer with an annoyed look.“There are no misunderstandings, nor are there any friends here!“I don’t need to call anyone!“This is now Young Master Bauer’s property!“You people better get out of here right now! Stop affecting our business!“If not, I’ll tell Young Master Bauer to teach Harvey York a lesson he won’t forget!Audrey then waved her hand with a cold expression.“Come! Get them out of here!”A dozen security guards furiously rushed forward with firearms in hand.It was Xynthia’s first time seeing such a sight. After hesitating for a moment, she decided to comply for the time being.“We’re leaving!”Xynthia resentfully went back to the Martial hall.“Jeff Bauer bought every single property of Flutwell’s business alliance?Harvey’s eyes lit up after hearing Xynthia’s explanation.“There’s no rush. Let me make a phone call.”Harvey then gave Ansel Torres a call.Ansel froze. He immediately contacted the g
“Tell everyone that Joseph Bauer used such heinous tactics to earn money because Jeff Bauer pulled the strings!“Then tell them that to cover up the truth, Jeff abused his authority and sent his subordinates to kill one of Harold Bauer’s men!“Harold is a just man, trying to expose the entire thing to the public!“Make up a few more versions of this story!“Make it as exaggerated as you can…“In any case, everyone needs to know that Jeff and Joseph are in the same boat!“And Harold had been constantly targeted because of his righteousness!“The Bauer family’s infighting starts with Jeff…“We’ll give them utter chaos!”Kroom!While Rachel Hardy and Kayden Balmer were carrying out their missions outside, thunder broke out from the sky.All of Flutwell was hot and humid. A storm was brewing…In the evening.Inside a private golf course on the outskirts of Flutwell.The sun was shining brightly. The wind was blowing gently.After the rain, it was the perfect time to relax wh
