Even though Smoke was filled with hate and resentment, he dared not cause any more trouble.He had no choice but to crawl to the side and make way for Harvey.He knew that if he continued challenging Harvey at this point, Rachel would definitely beat him to death.“Harvey! How dare you cripple my fiance’s subordinates?!”“You’re even here with a coffin! You’re ruining my engagement banquet!”Emily’s face darkened in an instant when she saw Harvey walking in.“You think we’re easy targets?!”“Go! Kill him!”No matter the case, Koen was still the Benett family’s son-in-law.Disrespecting him would mean disrespecting the Benett family.Thus, Emily had no choice but to take action.Besides, she was terrified of Harvey saying things that couldn’t be made public. She wanted Harvey dead as soon as possible.“Die!”Eight experts from the Benett family pulled out their golden swords and pounced at Harvey without hesitation.Bam!Rachel laughed nonchalantly. She grabbed the sword
“Yeah! Why would my fiance do something like that?!”“He told everyone to let you off the hook for the sake of the country and its people, too!”“He’s such a generous man! Don’t you think it’s shameful to slander him like that?!”“Besides, it’s your problem that Amber and the others were forced to be in deep sleep! That has nothing to do with us!”“Don’t think you can say whatever you want just because you have some fighters with you!”Clap, clap, clap!Harvey clapped, his face filled with admiration.“No wonder everyone’s calling you two the world’s best cheating couple!”“Looks like it’s all true, after all!”“It’s my first time seeing someone lie through their teeth like that.”Koen’s face darkened instantly.“You’ll pay for saying things like that, Harvey!”“Have you thought of the consequences for saying that without proof?!”Harvey smiled.“Proof? Didn’t you two idiots already give that to me?”“When did I say that Amber and the others were poisoned? When did I say
“Maiden Garcia had a chat with me today.”“She said that she wants me to join her. In exchange, she’ll give me ten billion dollars, three hundred acres of land, and the title of Brahmin!”“She told me you’re already on their side too.”“The royal family of India even gave you the title of Kshatriya!”“And for that, you got your cousin to fake an apology to Amber and the others in the Martial Hall.”“You made her mix the Life Elixir into the tea before she fed it to the young talents,” Harvey said calmly.“At the same time, the royal family agreed to give you the title of Brahmin if you keep devoting yourself to India while lurking in Country H.”“That said, they never expected Zoe to sell you out, no?”“Not only did she give me a lot of proof, but all the conversations you had with the Indians were recorded as well.”“Tell me. Aren’t you scared of dragging your entire family down for conspiring with the enemy?”“Huh?!”After looking at Harvey’s calm look on his face, everyon
Koen waved his hand, gesturing to his subordinates to shut the door.He then took a step forward and glared at Harvey.“As far as I know, it hasn’t even been a few weeks since you’ve known Amber and the others.”“I’m pretty sure the relationship between you people isn’t as close as you portray it to be.”“You’re here to get back at me for them? What a joke!”“In this day and age, every man fights for himself! Do you really think I’d believe your stupid lies?”“I know exactly why you’re here right now!”“As long as you ignore Amber’s incident and forget about what happened today…”“As long as you don’t say a single word about this…”“I have a check worth one hundred and fifty million dollars for you. Consider this a gift for our friendship!”Koen painstakingly pulled out a check.This was given to him by the Indians…Yet, he had to pull it out before he could even warm it up in his pocket; he was completely infuriated by this.That said, he had no other choice.If he didn’
Emily glared fiercely at Harvey.“Don’t think you can boss us around just because you have the footage!”“Don’t think that these people will side with you, either!”“Let me tell you something! They’re all related to me!”“No matter what we do, they’ll never stand on your side! Rather, they’d forget everything that ever happened!”Emily looked around her with a cold gaze.“Come on! Tell this young man what you saw and heard!”Naturally, Emily wanted to test Golden Palace’s authority and status in Flutwell.The guests exchanged glances before shaking their heads.“Nothing! We don’t know anything!”Emily's face darkened in an instant.“How could you not?! You saw this man here hurting everyone, didn’t you?!”“He even conspired with the enemy to poison Amber and the other young talents right in front of our faces!”“We need to take revenge for them!”The guests nodded in unison upon hearing those words.They weren’t idiots; more importantly, they had an extremely good relati
“Another thing: I’ll give you one day to bring me the antidote of the Life Elixir.”“If I still don’t see the antidote by then, I’ll make sure that you burn!”“Of course, you don’t have to believe me. You can try resisting, if you like.”“But if you do, you won’t get anything good out of it…”“Even if you’re from Golden Palace.”Harvey shot them a cold glare before walking out slowly of the door with his arms crossed.Koen gritted his teeth when he saw Harvey acting so arrogantly.“You think you’re impressive, Harvey?!”“You’re making us kneel on Flutwell’s Peak and bring the antidote?!”“You threaten Golden Palace too?!”“Who do you think you are?!”“Do you even have the right to do that?!”“Let me warn you! You’re dead when I report this to my brother Adrian!”“You’ll be the one ripped to shreds—not us!” Emily yelled, her face fierce.“You think Golden Palace is just bluffing?!”“It’s already too late for you to kneel!”“But we don’t have to deal with you right now…”
“First things first,” Harvey said calmly.“I’m the one who reported the incident. Amber and the others were poisoned.”Ansel chuckled bitterly.“Judging from what you told me, the tea they drank must’ve been digested for quite a while already.”“We’ll get Mr. Rudolph and his team to extract their gastric juices for testing.”“But even if we have proof, this is just physical evidence; we’re lacking any testimonies.”“We’ve already sent our men to talk to Koen and Emily.”“However, every single one of them was chased out of Golden Palace!”“At the same time, they’re accusing you of hurting people!”“Because of this, the incident was reported to the highest order; a few elders of the royal court sent word, saying that the country’s reputation is involved and that they want this incident solved as soon as possible.”“If Koen and Emily did poison Amber and the others and conspire with the enemy, they’ll be heavily punished!”“Golden Palace would be dealt with accordingly for cove
“With you here, Sir York, those people have no chance!”“That said, they’re extremely cunning so you should be careful.”After reminding Harvey of the danger, Ansel changed the subject.“Right, Princess Wright knows about the situation as well. She’s furious about it too.”“She was angry about the young talents of Country H being in such a sorry state.”“It’s a shame that she has an extraordinary identity; she isn’t allowed to interfere.”“That was why she asked me to tell you something: if you need any help, as long as it’s within her power, she’ll do everything to lend you a hand.”As the Big Boss’s daughter, Sienna’s identity was quite extraordinary.If she was involved in such a controversial war, not only would she cause a huge uproar, but the Indians would probably find another excuse to blame on.But since Sienna asked someone else to send word, this was enough to show her feelings for her country and its people.“Thank the princess for me. Tell her that I can handle t
The young man, who Linus addressed as Mr. Parker, ignored Ray and immediately set his eyes on Sia. For someone like him who came out of the mountains, fashionable young women from the mountains were women he rarely had a chance to interact with.And then, he glanced at Harvey. He did not bother hiding the disdain in his eyes. It was as if a fly had landed on his delicious cake, and he could not help but feel disgusted. When the image crossed his mind, he said, "Mr. Linus, I don't like people who interfere with our business.""I understand," Linus said coldly. "Let me deal with it."Then, Linus waved his hand, and dozens of mutants from Country A cracked their necks as they moved forward."You're thinking of dealing with who?" A calm voice came from in front of Linus. Then, he saw Harvey was already standing up, as he had already finished helping Sia regulate the energy inside of her. Then, he grabbed the ashtray nearby and hurled it."Ah!" The ashtray landed right on Linus's head,
Sia was Yvonne's younger cousin, and the two of them had met once. She even called Harvey brother-in-law. However, he did not expect the two of them to meet again in these circumstances.Harvey quickly pushed open the car door, walked out, and immediately checked Sia's pulse and asked, "Sia, what's going on here?"Sia instinctively wanted to struggle when a man touched her. However, when she saw Harvey's face clearly, she calmed down and stopped being on her guard."Why are you here?""Stop talking. Your condition right now is quite unusual. Let me give you a hand," said Harvey with a frown. While he could tell that Sia had been drugged, he did not realize it would be so powerful. The person who drugged Sia also did not think about the consequences and used about ten times more than the standard dosage.Most importantly, this was not some typical poison. It was a kind of insect poison that could awaken one's primal desire. And this situation was quite difficult to deal with. With
One moment later, Janus approached Emery with a dark expression. Meanwhile, Emery was brewing tea.Emery had just added some tea to the teapot and relaxedly filtered the first pot of water. Then, he took out his antique cup and poured himself a cup of tea.Only once he was almost done did Emery glance at Janus. "What happened?"Janus had a strange expression before he spoke sternly: "Boss, Ms. Isis of Sherril Corp had just been humiliated. Drake, who had just returned from the Northern Land, had also been wasted. They had even knelt and vowed not to harass Ms. Journi again…Emery's hand held his teacup still as he listened. A glint of strange light illuminated his eyes before he calmly said, "Don't tell me Harvey did this."Janus nodded. "I really can't figure it out until today. Just where did Harvey come from? He didn't care who he offended at all. Here, he had just killed Hector and foiled the Island Nation's plans, and the next he did was hurt Drake and humiliate Country A."
Isis took a deep breath as she gritted her teeth, "If you dare hurt Drake, both the Wards of the Northern Land and the Sherril Corp won't show you any mercy!""Oh? Then, I really want to see how you plan not to show me mercy.After he said that, Harvey placed the revolver he held on Drake's shoulder and pulled it.Bang!There was a huge sound, and Drake trembled. His shoulder had been shot, and blood instantly started to flow. If every shout before this was simply trying to scare him, then this shot was clean enough to the point of scaring them. All of them felt Harvey was a murderer.At this point, they finally understood that Harvey was not a risk-taker. He was even crazier than Drake.There was only silence at the scene. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, as everyone was still stunned. They were truly stunned by how fast Harvey did it, and the entire club's atmosphere instantly plummeted. Many were shaking and trembling.While they believed they were more importa
Isis's expression instantly darkened. Harvey's earlier decisiveness had already made her understand that Harvey would pull the trigger."Bend the knee, apologize, and make your vow," Harvey ordered calmly. "I'm growing impatient. Three, two, one…"Without giving Drake a chance to speak, Harvey pulled the trigger again.Clack!The fourth time. It was still a dry fire.Isis's mind was completely blank, and she was blinded momentarily. While she always looked like someone high-and-mighty, she felt like she was nothing in front of everything Harvey had been doing. She thought that she could easily lose her life.Drake was so scared that he was shuddering.While it was still a dry fire, the next time he pulled the trigger, there was a 50% chance of it being a bullet. No matter who Harvey pointed the gun at, that person would have a 50% chance of going to hell."My, they always said that those who are kind live short lives while those who are problematic live a very long life. I didn
"You're threatening me?" Harvey patted Drake's cheek. "I know you must be very haughty, but the problem is that you're right in my hands tonight. Do you think threatening me like that is going to help you? Do you actually think I wouldn't dare to pull that trigger after you threatened me?"I've killed people like you for a dime a dozen. Nothing happened to me anyway. Why am I still standing perfectly fine here? At the root of it, it's because people like you are useless!"Harvey continued in high spirits, "Hey, Drake. Do you want to make a bet? Let's bet that no matter how headstrong you are, you're going to kneel on the ground and beg me to spare your life."Drake coldly replied, "And what's the wager? Your life?"Harvey blurted out a laugh. "No, you're not nearly valuable enough to make me wager my life. But, if you don't beg me until the very end, I can agree to any of your conditions.""Fine. At the time, I'll make you kill yourself!" Drake said as he gritted his teeth. "We'll
"You're that lucky?" Harvey said, his shock palpable on his face. "Alright, one more time."This time, Drake raised his left hand to block the gun's muzzle using all his strength. He believed that if this continued, even if he would not die from a bullet, he would die from the fear alone. "You're scared?" Harvey looked at Drake curiously. "Aren't you the Madman? Aren't you the third in Wolsing out of all the Young Masters? Why are you so afraid of dying? You're so arrogant while harassing my girlfriend. Why are you such a piece of trash now, huh?" Harvey patted Drake's face disdainfully.In that instant, there was only silence. No one expected this man who called himself Journi's boyfriend to be so big-headed. Not only did he dare to threaten Drake, he really wanted to kill Drake. Was he not afraid the Wards of the Northern Land would show him no mercy?But of course, to someone like Journi, while she was surprised, she was mainly touched. She was certain someone like Harvey would
And then, Harvey waved his left hand. The moment when Drake was stunned, the revolver then dropped into Harvey's hand.Once Harvey had obtained the revolver, he spun the cylinder, unlocked the safety, and pointed the revolver around. All the people who were so smug earlier started to scream and tried to find places to hide after being shocked.Harvey's play with the revolver made it obvious that he would discharge it accidentally.Even Isis, who had always been so high-and-mighty, had her expression darkened for a while and hid behind a marble column subconsciously. He who has nothing to lose has nothing to fear. Harvey looked like he had nothing to lose at all.That was why the foreigners all believed that if they were killed by Harvey, even if Harvey was willing to die for his mistake, it was still something they could not accept. After forcing the group away, Harvey then pointed the revolver at Drake's head.Drake's eyes turned cold. "Who are you, kid? Do you think this is som
In the end, Journi took a deep breath and buried all her helplessness and fury deeper into her heart. Then, she slowly said, "You must be joking, Ms. Isis. You are the daughter of the Sherril Corp from Country A. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn't dare to cross you. However, I simply wish for you to show some mercy…"To thank you, I'm willing to give you some of the assets in Country A I owe you for free as my gift. I believe you won't make it difficult for me, right?"Journi thought she had already lowered herself to the point that she was practically begging Isis to show her mercy. At this point, she even felt that she was giving up. She even forgot that she had Harvey pretend to be her boyfriend.Harvey was pleased, however. Instead of using an excuse like having a boyfriend, she was willing to accept other conditions in exchange for her freedom. This was a sign that she was maturing."Tsk… Assets from Country A? The few mansions you bought on the West Coast?" Isis lit a cigare
