Harvey York calmly hung up the phone before putting three fingers up in front of Daphne Lee, telling her he only needed three minutes.“Three minutes?Daphne scoffed after seeing Harvey’s movements.“Do you think you can show off just because you have someone putting up a show with you?!“It’s useless!“We’ve seen country bumpkins like you before! We won’t be tricked by such lame party tricks!”“If you’re that confident, we should just wait it out,” replied Harvey calmly.“Fine! I’ll wait!“If you can’t get out of the situation by then, I’ll deal with you myself!”Daphne crossed her hands while looking at Harvey with her nose.Harvey casually played with his phone when he saw news of Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance being the new great director of the World Martial Arts Alliance.Three minutes had passed, but nothing had changed.Daphne showed a disdainful look when she looked at her Cartier watch, that no one knew where she got it from.“Time’s up, country bumpkin. You’r
CEO Lee’s face darkened in an instant the moment he heard Harvey’s words.When Harvey was done, he quickly replied with a respectful bow, “Don’t worry, Sir York.”“I’ll give you a fair statement about this.”“From today onward, I’ll make sure that any person from Country H will never be treated unfairly!”Before Harvey could say anything, CEO Lee immediately started swinging his palm around.His movements were ruthless yet accurate, slapping Daphne and the others around till their faces were completely swollen.Bam!CEO Lee then kicked Daphne to the ground, stomping on her exquisite face right after.Daphne’s nose snapped in half; blood smeared her now hideous face. It was a miserable right.CEO Lee turned around and looked at Harvey respectfully.“Sir York! Is this enough for you?”“No.”Harvey smiled, as calm as always. “How are you going to deal with the thief using Blackburn City’s law?”“I understand.”CEO Lee nodded and waved his hand; many tall strong security gu
Security guards with loaded firearms were patrolling every single entrance.After Ellen made a few phone calls, the guards raised the lever for the car to head inside.The car arrived at the entrance of the main building. Katy had been waiting there for a while.Katy walked forward with a smile on her face after the car was parked.“Thank you for coming all this way, Sir York.”“I’m sorry I had to call you here like this.”Katy already knew about the four great Martial Arts Alliances pressuring Country H, along with all of Harvey’s efforts. She was filled with gratitude when Harvey came all the way here as soon as he could.Harvey smiled.“It’s no big deal, Head Cobb. We’re friends. No need to be this courteous.”“Enough with the formalities.”“Didn’t Elder Cobb’s condition get worse? Let me go take a look.”Katy frowned when Harvey mentioned the situation.“To be honest with you, I invited a lot of famous families here for my grandfather.”“Martial artists, well-known doc
“Miss Cobb!”The man in a white t-shirt went forward to greet Katy, and nodded at Ellen.There was a slight fluctuation in his eyes when he shifted his gaze toward Harvey.“Thank you, Young Master Padlow. Thank you, everyone.”Katy nodded at the crowd before turning to the man in the white t-shirt.“This is the protege of the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance, Gael Padlow.”“He’s pretty powerful and has a strong background as well.”Harvey nodded, not saying much. He looked back at Ellen; her face was bright red and she seemed quite anxious.After looking at Ellen, then at Katy and Gael, Harvey smiled faintly.He had figured something out.But before he could dwell on the thoughts, Katy took a deep breath and said, “Thank you all for putting all your strength into my grandfather’s condition for the past few days.”“That said, he still hasn’t gotten any better. Rather, he’s in worse shape than before.”“I’m not blaming anyone for this, but I think the attempts should stop here
“He’s just a young man! He doesn’t look like a doctor either, so he must be a martial artist.”“Even if he trained since he was in his mother’s womb, there’s no way he’s even better than the rest of us here.”“I suspect he’s a con artist! Who’s going to take responsibility if anything bad happens after this? Him? Or everyone else?”The crowd naturally had their own opinions about Harvey.After all, they all wanted Katy to look at them in a different light. However, they all failed miserably.Rather, an ordinary-looking young man managed to get Katy’s respect. This was completely unforgivable for Gael.Ellen was muttering to herself when she looked at Harvey; she didn’t blatantly insult Harvey, but she was clearly on Gael’s side.Harvey smiled calmly, stopping Katy from saying anything.He looked at Gael and said, “I’m not from any sacred martial arts training grounds, nor do I have any impressive background.”“I’m just an ordinary person.”“What gave you the courage to come h
“I’m no doctor. I don’t come from the sacred martial arts training grounds, either,” Harvey began calmly.“But I do know a bit of the art of killing. I can save people using that. Is there a problem?”“Of course there is!”Gael scoffed coldly.“I’m a martial artist as well! Of course I know about that!”“The problem is, you have to learn everything there is about it!”“Simply put, you need to be a genius with lots of experience to save someone using that art.”“If you think you’re actually capable, then show me what you’ve got!”“If you can’t, then you should stop lying to Miss Cobb. You’re just hindering us from finding a way to treat Elder Cobb!”“We’ll find a way to make Elder Cobb better using both medicine and martial arts soon enough!”Gael shot Harvey a challenging look before pointing at the treatment plans that everyone had put together on the table.“Why don’t we show an idiot like you the South Sea’s flawless treatment plan instead?”Naturally, to show that he wa
“Let me tell you one more thing.”Harvey studied Gael calmly.“Someone must’ve come up with the same plan.”“However, the Cobb family would never allow this to happen.”“That’s right. Someone did come up with this before. My grandfather is a God of War and the best fighter in all of the South Sea. Only idiots would think to cripple his training!” Katy exclaimed coldly.“If so, what’s the point of inviting you people here?”Gael had a horrible look on his face.He was perfectly confident he’d be able to save Dean and win Katy’s heart at the same time, but his plan was no different than a sick joke to her.“Medicine and martial arts have the same origin. You all should understand this fact.”“If you want to succeed in these fields, only modesty can get you far.”Harvey didn’t want to let Gael go. He started going against the people who were planning to run their mouths in front of him.“None of you are modest enough for this. Rather, you’re all cocky people who only know how
After completely disrespecting the people there, Harvey gestured to Katy to lead him into Dean’s room.Gael and a few other so-called expert martial artists were boiling with anger, but they were curious to see if Harvey could actually save Dean.That was why they followed along too.Harvey ignored them completely.Katy knew it was the best time for Harvey to show his strength. So, she didn’t chase the crowd away.After arriving at a room about two thousand square feet wide, Harvey saw Dean lying on a yellow flower pear wood mattress.There was a lot of equipment strapped to his body, indicating his vital signs.Since he was a God of War, he wasn’t able to be injected with any medicine because of his thick skin.Dean had only survived this long because Katy had been painstakingly feeding him water every single day.Harvey felt extremely guilty after seeing Dean turn out this way for his sake.Katy took a step forward and grabbed Harvey’s right hand.“Sir York, you shouldn’t
