Naturally, the entire Cobb family didn’t think that Harvey had the power to do such a thing.After all, they believed they had already figured out his background.‘At the end of the day, he’s just a tourist from Country H.’‘How can someone like that even deal with the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?’‘Besides, he even hurt the organization’s top talent, Gael!’‘He’d be dreaming if he thinks that he can fix the situation at this point!’“You want to deal with the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?”Valery scoffed.“You have no idea how deep the waters here are, yet you’re saying that you can fix this?”Eden glared at Harvey as well.“If you can deal with the situation, I’ll grovel in front of Katy as an apology. I’ll admit that everything I did today was out of impulse and wishful thinking!”“Heh, heh! This kid talks big! He thinks he can just fix all of this?”“Just look at him! I saw him staring at my legs just now! What does he think he can do?”“Even the young
“Right! It’s settled!”“I hope you don’t go back on your word.”Harvey calmly took out his phone before dialing a number.“He’s still trying to pretend? We’ll see how long he can keep this act up!”“He thinks he can deal with the problem with just a single call? Who does he think he is? The prince of the royal family, or the young master of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?”“Country H has been extremely powerful recently, but he’s still just an outsider! How dare he try to show off in our own country?”“If he can actually solve our crisis with a single phone call, I’ll kneel right in front of him!”Everyone scoffed when they saw Harvey calmly dialing his phone.Nobody expected Harvey to actually do anything.Harvey made the call soon after.Beep, beep, beep!“Who’s this?”A young person’s voice could be heard on the other side of the phone; it was Trey.“It’s me, Harvey,” Harvey replied calmly.The top talent instantly shivered.He was still being very respectfu
An elder desperately tried to control his emotions after making a phone call.“Grandma Cobb, the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance made sure of it. We still have the supply rights, and they’ll come to inspect the goods this afternoon.”The Cobb family trembled in excitement after hearing those words.Not only would their trade be successful, they’d also be able to earn heaps of money; the entire family would be able to continue enjoying their glory and riches.“How did he do that in an instant?!”“We only used half of the cost to get the supplies! We’ll be rich if they actually buy them from us!”“The dividends alone could last us six whole months to spend on whatever we want!”The entire family had odd expressions when they looked at Harvey.The disdain in their eyes was completely replaced by shock and disbelief, followed by the excitement of them getting filthy rich.Grandma Cobb resentfully dialed a number.After a moment, she immediately dropped her phone to the groun
“How about this? Since the problem got solved after you pretended to make a phone call…”“I’ll let you and Katy off the hook since you’re so fortunate!”“Katy can continue being the head of the head house.”“Nobody is allowed to speak about this anywhere else!”“If not, I’ll call the cops on whoever that does!”Grandma Cobb was a little shocked before, but she immediately remembered…Eden had already made a few phone calls to beg people to help in the situation.The people on the other side of the phone kept skimping over the subject, but Grandma Cobb was still hopeful.Naturally, she would think that Eden was the one who dealt with the situation.Katy’s expression changed; she didn’t think Grandma Cobb would go back on her word.Without giving Harvey a chance to speak, Grandma Cobb glanced at Eden with a smile on her face.“My dear boy! Why didn’t you tell me you’ve already dealt with the situation in the first place? You made me worried sick here!”Eden froze for a moment
To flaunt his authority and relationship with Gael, Eden turned on the speakers before dialing the number.A cold and gloomy voice could be heard on the other side soon after.“What now?!”Gael was infuriated; he just got word that Trey managed to give the Cobb family their supply rights back.His father was the vice leader of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance, but the top talent told him something that forced his father to give the supply rights back.After getting Eden’s call, Gael was boiling with anger.That said, he didn’t know what kind of connections the Cobb family had, so he didn’t dare lash out fully.Eden put on a warm smile despite hearing Gael’s not-so friendly tone.“Young Master Padlow! I already know about the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance giving us our supply rights back.”“I know you did your best to help us out to convince Senior Padlow.”“On behalf of Grandma Cobb and the family, we thank you!”Gael froze; he didn’t know what happened exactl
“I know you’ve been looking for your one true love, Katy.”“But as the heiress of the family, you enjoy all the glory and riches that come with it as well as the responsibility of the family’s fate!”“I won’t blame you for the things you did in the past anymore…”“Even after you’re married, I can still guarantee your spot as the head of the head house !”Grandma Cobb showed a prideful look on her face, as if she was a generous woman.“As long as you marry Young Master Padlow, we’ll have a strong ally on our side!”“Do you actually think this man here truly loves you?”“He’s only clinging to you for the family’s authority and riches!”“I’ll just give this man a hundred and fifty thousand dollars for him to run back to Country H.”“We’ll settle everything just like this!”“You don’t have anything against my suggestion, do you?”Katy’s expression changed instantly.Eden chuckled coldly and took a haughty step forward.“Did you hear that, Katy?”“Grandma Cobb’s generous enou
Katy instinctively looked around her.The members of the family were laughing coldly, their faces wretched and sinister.“Enough looking already, Katy. Nobody’s going to believe that filth…” Eden said slowly.“Only someone as naive as you can believe that a useless kept man can do something like this,” Valery exclaimed arrogantly.The elder with a goatee sighed.“Wake up, Katy. That’s enough dreaming.”Katy was utterly heartbroken. She had done her very best for her family for the longest time; yet nobody was standing by her side, nor did they believe Harvey’s ability to do anything.She stumbled back, her face pale. Harvey quickly held Katy before she fell and whispered worriedly, “You okay?”“I’m fine.”Katy took a deep breath to steady herself. Then, she looked at Grandma Cobb with a bitter expression.“Are you really not going to believe your own granddaughter, Grandma Cobb?”Naturally, Katy still held hope for her family.“How do you still not understand this?!”Gra
The entire family spoke up instantly; they knew that the family would greatly benefit if Katy actually listened and married Gael.Katy’s feelings had absolutely nothing to do with them, anyway.The family believed that as long as the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance sided with them, they would be in an extremely good position.Even without maintaining their position as one of the South Sea’s great families, they’d still be able to live without worry for the next few years of their lives.At this moment, Katy’s feelings meant nothing to them.They didn’t care how she would end up, either.They were already prepared to send Katy right to Gael’s bed after thinking about the benefits that they would get.Upon feeling everyone’s hostility, Eden laughed haughtily.“The family thinks you should marry Young Master Padlow. What else can you say in front of the family who raised you?”After seeing the family’s wretched expressions, Katy was reminded of the time when she was forced i
