Rhett Padlow showed a cold look before he opened his eyes.“I wanted to deal with this as an ordinary father, kid!“I can’t be bothered to fight someone like you anyway…“But since you’re still this unapologetic…“Then don’t blame me for what happens next! You’ll know the consequences of going against the Padlow family soon enough!”Rhett slowly took off his jacket and handed it to a woman beside him before cracking his neck. He did seem like quite the experienced fighter at this moment.Screams and cheers of excitement could be heard all over the place. Nobody here had seen Rhett throw any punches before. They were all exhilarated when they finally got the chance to witness his greatness.After waving at everyone, gesturing for them to calm down, Rhett lunged forward before appearing right in front of Harvey York and throwing a kick.The power and speed of the kick were overwhelming. It was clear just how strong Rhett actually was.Boom!Rhett did not hold back at all. He us
Harvey York’s movements were swift, making Gael Padlow and the others change their expressions while instinctively taking a few steps back.Gael was utterly shocked. He could feel a terrifying aura from Harvey’s slap.“Hyah!”Rhett had no time even to dodge the attack.He could only scream and cross his arms in front of him to brace himself.That said, it was all useless in front of Harvey.As soon as Rhett put his guard up, Harvey’s slap immediately landed on his face at lightning speed.Slap!Rhett felt a sharp pain on his face before he blacked out.He slammed right into the people behind him like a dead dog.A dozen people were knocked to the ground. It was a horrible sight.Gael was knocked off as well. His arms covered in plasters were hurting badly. If nobody were there to lift him, he would not be able to get up on his own.Rhett slammed right into the marble wall, instantly forming cracks similar to a spider web.His body then slowly slid down as he showed a horri
“Oh? Are you calling people?“You’re getting backup now?Harvey York calmly smiled.“Then, I’ll give you ten minutes.“I’ll kneel if the person you calls manages to scare me.“If not, you and your baby boy will have to kneel instead!”Gael Padlow and Rhett Padlow’s faces instantly turned dark before they looked at each other with wretched smiles.Obviously, they both knew who was coming.Vroom!In just ten minutes, the door was kicked open once again.A group of people in robes walked inside with cold expressions.A middle-aged man was standing in front.His face was as sharp as a blade, with a scar showing from the corner of his left eye to the right side of his chin.Not only did the scar not hurt his facial features, but his fierce attitude was also emphasizing it. It was apparent that he was an extremely prominent figure.Harvey squinted at the person while Julian York frowned behind him.“Sir York, this is the leader of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance, Chas
“I’m not scared of whoever’s behind you either. I’ll dig out every single person who’s on your side!“I’ll make them all pay!”Chase Smith was being extremely dominant. He was prepared to crush anybody in his way.Harvey York took a sip of his wine before showing a faint smile.“As expected from Leader Smith. What a majestic and dominant man!“If I heard you correctly, you’re planning to take advantage of everyone here, right?”“Damn straight I am!” exclaimed Chase with a cold look.“You’re not happy about it?“Then, come at me!“I’ll let you have a taste of your own blood!Chase then pointed at Harvey.“Stand up and show me your face!”The beautiful women felt weak when they saw the sight.‘He’s too strong!’‘Leader Smith’s so dominant! That’s what a real man looks like!’Harvey crossed his arms and legs while raising his head with a disdainful look.The crowd scoffed when they saw the sight.‘What the Hell?!’‘Is he still trying to show off?!’‘He has a death wish
“This kid’s just a kept man, Leader Smith! Why are you hitting your face in front of him?” asked Rhett Padlow instinctively.Slap!Before Rhett even finished talking, Chase Smith instantly swung the back of his palm across Rhett’s face.Rhett crashed into the marble wall once again. He could not crawl back up for the longest time.“Why did you hit me, Leader Smith?!”The others were surprised when they saw the sight. They did not understand why he hit himself and Rhett when he was supposed to be there to help the Padlow family.Gael Padlow was shocked.“Did you have too much to drink, Leader Smtih? You’re supposed to go against this b*stard here, not my father…”Slap!Chase also sent Gael flying to his father. The two lay flat on the wall without moving a single muscle.Harvey York squinted with a profound look on his face.“Looks like your reputation isn’t good enough in the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance, Leader Smith.“Not only did your subordinates follow suit whe
Chase Smith showed a respectful look while completely ignoring everyone else.“I didn’t teach them well enough, Sir York! It was my fault!”Harvey York swirled his wine glass around and took a sip.“Do you think I’ll just let you go because you said that?”Harvey was completely looking down on Chase at this moment.“What are you doing, Leader Smith?!”“How can you just lower your head in front of a man from Country H like that?!”“He’s just a country bumpkin!”“Why are you so scared of him?!”“He’s just Katy Cobb’s kept man!”“We were scared of her only because she was still with the Cobb family previously!”“Why should we be scared of a savage like him now that Katy broke off with the family?!”“As for Dean Cobb, he still hasn’t shown himself after the kid treated him!”“This is all just a trick!”“We don’t have to be afraid!”Gael Padlow thought Chase was afraid of Katy and Dean. He believed that this was the only reason why he was this terrified.He thought he should
Bam!After beating up Gael Padlow and his father, Chase Smith kicked the two toward Harvey York.“They’ve constantly been going against you because of my lack of discipline, Governor York.“Please punish them as you please.”Chase showed a respectful look. He would not dare show a hint of arrogance then.At this point, Gael’s face was as swollen as a pig’s. He wanted to say something but could only stare at Harvey with a fearful expression.Rhett Padlow, on the other hand, lowered his head with a vengeful gaze.He did not want to believe that the person they were trying to crush was actually way out of their league.Harvey showed an emotionless expression when he saw through Chase’s trick to gain his trust.He patted Chase’s face before calmly saying, “You should handle your own men instead, Leader Smith.“It’s already eleven o’clock at night. There are still seven hours before daylight.“Since you’re this understanding, I’ll give you some time.“Julian York will arrive at
Harvey York returned to rest after he was done with his business.On the next day, early in the morning, Katy Cobb came over to his villa to have a chat over breakfast. A security guard jogged over to report Harvey about something.“Sir York, there’s a man at the front door. His hands are covered in plasters.“He said his name is Gael Padlow. He’s here to ask you and Ms. Cobb for forgiveness.”Harvey cracked a calm smile.“Ask for forgiveness? Interesting…”Katy froze. She did not know what happened last night for Gael to come all the way here just to apologize.But since she was a smart woman, she only smiled without saying another word.“Come on. Let’s have a look outside.”Harvey took a sip of his drink while he walked to the front door.A man was seen kneeling in the courtyard.He was kneeling with his back up straight. He did not even dare move a single inch.Compared to last night, his dominance from the Lost City Bar was nowhere to be seen.He seemed extremely miser
"Of course, you can. You're the leader of the Judd family!" Veronica said to Veer in a sarcastic tone. "However, to think that you've mistreated our mother… Aren't you supposed to resign already?"Veer coldly replied, "Don't worry. Even if I do resign, you won't be the next leader. So you can stop dreaming about it already."The corner of Veronica's lips twitched. She had wanted to say something else when an old man with white hair came out from the inner chamber at that moment. With a cold voice, he rebuked them, "Enough! Your mother is still unconscious in bed right now, but all of you argue amongst yourselves here. Where are your manners?"I have not been managing things for many years, but do I no longer have any influence within the family?"Veer narrowed his eyes a little when he saw the old man. Then, he stepped forward and bowed his head. "I understand, father."After seeing Veer's attitude, he turned his attention to Veronica and the others. "It's the same for all of you.
"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
