“No,” replied Harvey York with a calm look.Emilio Garcia showed a horrible expression.“I guarantee similar incidents will not happen for the next five years!“The attacks on citizens of Country H from abroad will also halt instantly!Haru Miyamoto and the others felt resentful but had no choice just to nod in unison.“That’s right! From now on, we’ll coexist peacefully. From now on, we won’t get involved with your affairs!”Clyde Osborne gritted his teeth after hearing those words.He only showed a cold expression without saying a word. Speaking out against this would mean going against the front he previously put up for the sake of the people.He was already thinking of a million ways to end Harvey’s life at this moment…He was dead set on seeing Harvey getting ripped to shreds!“Yeah!”The workers of Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance happily cheered.The pressure of the four great Martial Arts Alliances was just too immense.Everyone felt much more relaxed when they we
Harvey York crossed his arms before disdainfully sending Emilio Garcia flying with a single kick.When Harvey was wiping his fingers with some tissue, Emilio and the others were frantically twitching their eyes before they fearfully took a few steps back.At this point, they knew that Harvey was right…Even if Harvey killed them off, the Martial Arts Alliances would not even bat an eye.After all, Harvey knew their biggest weaknesses.Emilio and the others felt utterly resentful when they saw Harvey acting dominantly.They were here to show off and boss around Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance…But they were no different than mere dogs compared to Harvey at this moment.This was completely off from what they had in mind.With a bitter look, Emilio took a deep breath and said, “It’s better if you don’t burn all your bridges right now, Sir York…”Harvey swung the back of his palm across Emilio’s face.“I’d rather do just that.”Haru Miyamoto gritted his teeth and stepped forw
“Number two, compensate for all the losses of Country H citizens abroad.“Pay for their damages and punish the people who did it! Not a single dime less, and not a single person left out!“Other than that, every single one of you will pay a hundred and fifty million dollars as pension and mental loss fees for the citizens of Country H!“My assistant, Elanor Stanton, will decide how to proceed with the situation.”Emilio Garcia and the others frantically twitched their eyes.Harvey York was going for the people’s hearts.That said, the conditions were still within their tolerable range. No matter how resentful they were, they had no choice but to nod their heads.“We’ll accept these conditions too.”“Number three, and also the final one…Harvey calmly said, “I don’t trust the four great Martial Arts Alliances to keep their word.“That’s why I’m asking the Far East and South Sea Martial Arts Alliances to acknowledge Country H as the fifth permanent director of the World Martial
Clyde Osborne was not just spouting nonsense either. The four great directors would always side with America and the Empire of the Sun that Never Sets’ Martial Arts Alliances.Not only did they have the monopoly of the world’s many martial arts resources, but they would also often band together to suppress the other Martial Arts Alliances of top countries. The cooperation between both sides would be considered near-perfect.Safe to say that the world’s Martial Arts Alliances would always follow the four great directors.Because of the Far East and South Sea’s complicated situation, the World Martial Arts Alliance would usually not get involved with them.They already owned the rest of the martial arts world anyway.Why would the four great directors even let Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance rise to power under such circumstances?Not only would there be another person in charge, but all the directors would also be on a different page again.Then, how could they use their author
Clyde Osborne’s face instantly darkened.He could not imagine how such a coincidence would even happen.At such a crucial moment, the World Martial Arts Alliance held a meeting and nominated Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance as one of the great directors.‘How is this possible?!‘Everything happened exactly like that b*stard, Harvey York, said!‘Did he plan for all this?!The thoughts came to Clyde’s mind like a surging tide crashing onto the shore.He quickly calmed himself, thinking that this would never be the case.‘A small fry like Harvey wouldn’t be able to do anything to the World Martial Arts Alliance.‘All this is just a coincidence!’“Don’t be scared, everyone!” exclaimed Clyde.“He must’ve known about this through his sources!“That was why he would come up with such a condition!“Don’t give in to his terms!“We, the people from Country H, know our limits. We have no right to sit in such a powerful position.”Even before Clyde was done talking, Emilio Garcia a
Gordon Moreno and the others did not want this to happen. They were still screaming at Harvey York moments before but already bowing in the next second.There was no other choice. Their bosses had already made the call.Since three out of four great directors of the World Martial Arts Alliance agreed to the condition, what else could the representatives even do?Colton Torres was completely frozen.Dane Benett and the others were shocked as well.At this point, they could not even believe what was happening before their eyes.“I oppose this! Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance cannot be allowed to be one of the great directors!” bellowed Clyde furiously.“We know what we’re capable of! Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance isn’t suited for that!“Not only are you pushing us to go against the Far East and South Sea regions…“You’re trying to kill Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance here!“I’ll never agree to this!”Then, Clyde coldly glared at Emilio Garcia and Haru Miyamoto.His in
The others became extremely sluggish after hearing those words.Nobody expected that Clyde Osborne, who seemed like the instigator, would be slapped around by Gordon Moreno.‘What exactly happened here…?’“How dare you touch me, you b*stard…?”Clyde wanted to kill off Gordon, but he managed to hold back.He could take out someone like Gordon in a heartbeat…But he was being supported by the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance. Clyde also could not afford to go against them.“What? Do you think you’re impressive just because we call you ‘Prince’?“Do you want to come at me right now?!Gordon disdainfully pushed Clyde aside.“You’re useless! All you can do is run your mouth!“Let me tell you something! No matter how hard the decision is or how many people are against us, the Far East and South Sea Martial Arts Alliance will stand with Country H!“We’ll get our members to sign the contract to nominate Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance as the fifth great director!”While Clyde gri
On the next three days, Harvey York had to deal with Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance’s matters along with Colton Torres.Along with the Far East and South Sea Martial Arts Alliances’ sending their recommendations…Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance had successfully become one of the great directors.Other than that, not only did the attacks toward Country H citizens from abroad stop, they were all fully compensated for the damages.After dealing with the matter, Harvey told Rachel Hardy and the others to stay in Flutwell and cooperate with Mandy Zimmer to run the Hearthstone Corporation.As for the Martial Hall, Elanor Stanton and Layne Naiswell would be in charge.With the two together, they would have both connections and the strength to do anything.Martial Hall’s development would naturally be on track, along with the Torres family supporting them.After that, Harvey told Rachel to buy him a plane ticket before he went off.Dean Cobb’s injuries were still untreated after
"It's your choice whether to believe it or not," said Harvey casually."Oh, come on," laughed Veer. "Since we've invited you all the way here, of course we believe you. Let's see… Please come this way."Then, Veer gestured and led him deeper into the estate. Harvey did not refuse and narrowed his eyes as he looked into the sky. He could already see a dark cloud gathering on top of the estate.In another courtyard, there was a huge lawn where a helicopter had landed. It was enough to show just how much wealth the Judd family had. But when Veer saw the helicopter, he was slightly surprised and asked, "Why is he back home?""He?" Harvey was quite curious. Veer was the leader of the Judd family. Could it be that someone else scared him within the family?When Veer saw Harvey's expression, he explained, "You probably didn't know this, but despite being the leader of the Judds of Wolsing, my father still has authority over me. However, he has been training in isolation all these years i
After a brief hesitation, Veer slowly spoke to Harvey. "Well… Let's start after you helped us deal with the problem haunting my mother. After that, all the seniors of the Judd family believed that there were some issues with the geomancy of this place. So, we were thinking of finding a new place to call home."However, the Judds are a big family. We have to make arrangements for many things. If we simply moved to another place, some might think that the Judd family is starting to fall. That's why we had to give up on moving, which meant the only other option left for us was to adjust the geomancy of this place."If you had asked me then, I would have asked you to help us with this since we shouldn't ask two persons to deal with the same problem. However, many elders rejected my proposal, saying you're too young and inexperienced."Ultimately, we asked Wolsing's top geomancer, Master Eridan, who has long stopped seeing any guests, to help us. Initially, everything went well. But afte
Veer cleared his throat and said, "Firstly, allow me to apologize on behalf of my nephew. He already informed me about Nelly and is now kneeling inside our estate's chapel. As he said, he will repent for three days and nights. Since he can't leave at the moment, he asked me to send you his apologies. "Other than apologizing for my nephew, please allow me to apologize to you on behalf of the Judds of Wolsing. The reason for all of this is because we aren't strict enough with our education and discipline. I swear in my family's name that things like this won't ever happen again in the future. We will also take full responsibility for cleaning up all the despicable acts that happen in the entertainment industry within Judd Entertainment."Veer was unsure how to feel when he said something like that. How could he not know that the sons of the Judd family had other women outside? But the problem was, it was fine for them to keep other women. But why did they allow those women to provoke
Harvey squinted his eyes and whispered to Marlee, "I don't know who your family has invited to change the geographical features of your estate, but the worst thing he did was to move away the two statues at the gate."If I'm right, your grandmother's condition has already stabilized initially. After changing the geological features, she should be pretty energetic as well. However, she is starting to feel a little numb after the two statues have been moved. "In the beginning, all of you thought it was just because she was getting older. You also started to feel something was wrong during these few days, right?"Marlee was a little shocked. "Why does it feel like you've witnessed the entire thing?"Then, Harvey explained, "Everything leaves a trace, and it's the same for geomancy. Don't tell me you think I won't be able to see something has changed when you move the two statues that protect the fortune of your entire family?"If you ask me, the geomancer you've hired is either not
Nelly fell on her knees without delay and started to slap herself dozens of times. Finally, she muttered an apology to Xynthia before turning tail and fled.It was obvious that after what had happened, she was no longer the queen bee of the advertising department. What Sawyer had said also meant that she would become a non-person in the entertainment industry. Someone like her would not have a good ending.However, Harvey was unaffected despite knowing how Nelly's life would end. Instead, he thought she deserved it. It was already quite lenient for her to end up like this for a woman who did not know her place and wanted to bully her juniors.-After it was all done, Marlee invited Harvey to a three-story office building that was only a couple hundred feet away.Xynthia and Journi followed them there. The two were similarly quite surprised when they saw Marlee's change of attitude toward Harvey.Marlee did not know who Xynthia was, but she was acquainted with Journi. They just di
"Tell him to give me his name!" Sawyer said. "I don't care if he is in Wolsing or anywhere in Country H. I'll make sure he regrets ever coming to this world!"Sawyer sounded extremely domineering, and his tone was very arrogant. It was as if the entire world was his to destroy whenever he wanted to. Not to mention, one could hear from his tone that he did not care about Marlee at all.Marlee's expression darkened, and she wanted to speak.However, Harvey waved his hand and said, "Sawyer Judd, is it? Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Harvey York. If you still don't know who I am, you can ask your leader or your grandmother. You can speak to me once you know who I am."Also, your woman has harassed my younger sister and that upsets me a lot. You better be able to give me an explanation. It would be best if you could give me one. If you can't, I'll give you one instead."Harvey calmly replied, but his words were even more domineering than Sawyer's from the other side.What the hell?
"Mr. York, why did you suddenly visit Judd Entertainment? Do you have any order for me?" asked Marlee Harvey in a serious tone."Not exactly," Harvey pointed at Xynthia with his right hand. "That's my younger sister over there, but we're not biologically related. She's currently working at Judd Entertainment. But what happened? Your advertising department's superstar is forcing her to sleep with an old man, otherwise she'll ruin her career."I'm here to question you on behalf of my younger sister. Is this a company rule?"When Marlee heard what Harvey had to say, her eye twitched, and she quickly turned around and slapped Nelly, who was caught completely unprepared.Nelly cried out in pain as she held her face and landed on the ground, looking at Marlee in disbelief. "Don't you worry, Mr. York. I'll give you a satisfying explanation about this."Harvey calmly said, "This is not the first time we met each other, Marlee. So, I know this has nothing much to do with you. That's why
Harvey had ignored Nelly's taunts and continued with the countdown. "Three minutes."At this time, Journi approached them from the back. Journi gave Xynthia a strange look and then said to the woman from upper management, "Here's my advice. You should give Ms. Marlee a call right now. Otherwise… I don't think you'll be able to shoulder the consequences."Compared to Harvey, who was wearing something quite plain, the outfit Journi was wearing, while still minimalistic, was all from luxury brands and could only be bought through reservations.She was wearing the Lady Arpels Pont des Amoureux watch, worth hundreds of thousands.What Journi was wearing gave immense pressure to the woman and, after a moment of hesitation, she pulled out her phone and started to dial a number."Oh ho! So, you're a sugar baby!" Nelly said derisively as she instinctively grew hostile to Journi when she saw her. "A sugar baby saving a damsel in distress, becoming the white knight of another woman… How can
The woman who looked like upper management was stunned when she heard Harvey called out to her. "Do you want to see our boss?""My, what a show-off," Nelly scoffed at Harvey's pretentiousness. "Do you want to complain against me by speaking to our boss? Xynthia, where did you find this man? Why is he so stupid? Does he think he can settle this by complaining? Is something wrong with his brain?"Not to mention who does he think he is, thinking he can see our boss whenever he wants? If he can see her, I will fall on my knees and call him daddy!"The other female models all covered their mouths and chuckled. To their understanding, what Harvey did was so laughable and childish. Even the lady from upper management mockingly looked at Harvey and said, "Sir, our company headquarters aren't that far. It'll only take three to five minutes to get there."But, do you really think you can see our boss, Ms. Marlee? Not only is she one of the Judds of Wolsing's three daughters, but ordinary peo
