Harvey looked calmly at the round-faced inspector.“If the two ladies weren’t here, could you have guaranteed nobody was going to destroy the evidence on the spot?”The round-faced inspector froze. Right after that, she instinctively looked at the bald inspector.The bald inspector glared furiously at Harvey, and hung his head low.After Harvey showed solid proof of his innocence, and along with the Moreno family’s support, the police could no longer detain him. Half an hour later, Harvey left without a single scratch.Harvey could’ve easily left the place without the mother and daughter’s help, but he still showed the two a sincere look to thank them.“Mrs. Cobb, Ellen, thank you.”“I’ll remember your favor. I’ll treat you to a meal when I have the time!”Ellen flashed him a warm smile.“I’ll be your shield in Blackburn City from now on, Harvey!”“My mother’s the second lady of the Moreno family, one of the South Sea’s great families. With her around, there’s nothing that
Harvey could tell what Noemi was thinking, but he didn’t mind it at all.It was natural for a mother to protect her child, after all.He took the name card and kept it in his pocket.At this moment, Noemi suddenly coughed.Harvey instinctively looked at her chest.Noemi got furious when she saw where Harvey was looking.‘How dare a child like him act this way?! Who does he think I am?’If Harvey didn’t save her daughter, she would’ve slapped him in the face for his rudeness.“Since you’re being so kind to me, Mrs. Moreno, there’s something I should say.”Harvey hesitated for a moment before he continued speaking.“I don’t know what kind of martial arts you’re training, but there’s a huge flaw in your practice.”“It’s best if you stop training or let go of everything you trained for. You won’t survive long if you don’t.”“Harvey!”Ellen froze; she was then reminded of his miraculous feat of saving Dean.“Are you serious about this?”“Harvey’s really impressive, Mother! Yo
“I’m grateful you care about my health. I’ll do a check up as soon as I get the time.”“But we’ll have to end things here. Ellen and I need to go!”Noemi had a profound look on her face.“I wish you all the best.”Harvey could tell Noemi didn’t believe him after seeing the distrustful look on her face.“Why don’t you give me some time? I’ll take a look for you…”“Enough, Harvey! I’m trying to save your face for Ellen’s sake!”“Stop trying to cross the line!”Noemi stepped forward and spoke to Harvey in a voice only he could hear.Harvey sighed, then he left without saying another word.Noemi scoffed coldly before taking her daughter inside the Toyota Alphard.Ellen hesitated; she wanted to say something, but she couldn’t go against her own mother.“That man did save you, true. He also beat up Eden and the Cobbs…”“But you can’t be sure if he’s working together with them to fool you!”“Eden was your ex, and he almost took advantage of you; what more a man you just met!”“
Meanwhile, Harvey didn’t know that Noemi actually went for a check-up.After leaving the police station, he gave Katy a call.He then called a cab and headed to the Cobb family’s villa.Katy was confident he was able to get out; she quickly got the chef to prepare a big meal to celebrate his return.“What are you planning to do next?”Katy poured Harvey a glass of red wine, smiling. She was deeply interested in his promise of building a family for her.This was the best course of action for her, anyway.On one hand, she wouldn’t need to be forced around by Grandma Cobb and the rest of the Cobbs.On the other hand, there would be a chance for the family’s to be restored.“It’s simple, really. Since the Cobb family wants to cling to the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance so badly, we’ll just have to break them off.”“I’ll turn the organization against them. Soon enough, they’ll serve us.”“As long as the organization’s on our side, the Cobb family’s business will be under
Harvey froze after seeing Katy’s surprised look.This was too much of a coincidence.That said, Katy could use the formula to reopen her family business.She would be able to restore the family’s past glory in the shortest time possible.While the two were discussing how to put the formula into production, Katy’s phone suddenly rang.Katy’s face darkened the moment she picked up the call. “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you, Sir York,” she said, her head hung low.“Gael managed to freeze every single asset I have in the South Sea by suing me.”“Without the assets…”Katy chuckled bitterly; she didn’t think that the Cobb family would be this shameless.If it wasn’t for someone in the Cobb family tipping off Gael, he wouldn’t have sued Katy so quickly.“Gael and the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance…”Harvey smiled and tapped Katy’s soft hands. After that, he dialed a number.“Don’t worry, I’ll handle this.”“I told you that I’ll help you. I’m a man of my word!”…
Irene didn’t say another word upon seeing Julian acting this decisive.Harvey had ordered them to bring Gael back for a talk.If they asked for more help, Harvey would probably start to doubt their abilities.Soon, five people sat inside the box.The box wasn’t as big but it looked quite exquisite; the dance floor could clearly be seen from there. The people outside the window looked like ants.Tasting fine wine while watching the pretty ladies go crazy would make anyone feel like a king; it was truly one of life’s greatest enjoyments.“My dear guests, what would you like to have?”Julian and the others didn’t sit for long until a waitress in a nurse’s outfit showed up; her fishnets wrapped around her slender legs and provided a sensual sight.“If I order a Dragon Set, you’ll stay here with me for the night, right?”Julian flashed the nurse a lustful expression as he stared lecherously at her legs.He reached out and copped a feel for himself, pretending to be a rascal playbo
Dozens of men in suits rushed in and surrounded the entire box.A man wielding a golf club was leading the charge; he had a wretched look on his face, and murderous intent seeped out of his body.Julian’s face turned frosty. “We’re still drinking here, dammit!” “What the hell are you trying to do here?”“What do you think?!”The man in front waved his hand, his face filled with disdain.“We’re here to kill you off, of course!”The men pounced forward, flailing their golf clubs in the air; the entire place was in utter chaos.Julian’s body had grown a little weak after drinking a bit too much, so he couldn’t react to the entire situation in time.Irene, on the other hand, kicked the coffee table in front of her with her slender legs, knocking a few men to the ground.Instantly, she knew that their plan had failed.“We’re leaving!”Bam!The man in front charged forward and kicked her to the ground.He was naturally an expert martial artist.Irene was a skillful fighter,
Bam bam bam!After hearing their orders, all the men started smashing beer bottles at Julian York.Julian barely managed to block a few attacks but was still struck down after that.Bam!Then, the leading man slammed his golf club right on Julian’s back.A mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth before he kept twitching on the ground.“Stop! Stop right now!Irene Johnson was in a complete mess.“You’ll regret this!”Slap!The leading man slapped Irene in the face.“Regret?!“Sure I will!“Let me tell you something! You people from Country H have no right in front of us!“You think you can just show off here just because you have a little bit of money?!“You want Young Master Padlow to have a toast with you?!“You just want to grab him when he gets here, right?! He told us to take out every single person from Country H just before!“Go! Beat the sh*t out of them!”Dozens of men behind him wretchedly chuckled before they became more relentless and hasty with their at
