A Porsche 718 parked on the side of the road, not too far away.Ellen Moreno, who was ready to make fun of Harvey, suddenly sat up straight.After seeing Katy Cobb come along, Ellen showed a confused look in her eyes.‘He’s actually being kept by Katy! He’s just showing off using her presence!‘He brought her along after being targeted by the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance!‘This damn b*stard!Ellen cursed Harvey under her breath. She felt utter disdain toward him, but for some reason, there was still a hint of resentment in her heart.‘Why would he rather be kept by Katy than accept being her subordinate?!‘Why?!She was in a terrible mood. She did not know if this was jealousy or something else.“That’s him! That’s the b*stard who hurt Young Master Cobb!“That’s right! He snuck up on him before slapping him around a few times!“He doesn’t respect the organization at all!“All he can do is play dirty! He said that nobody in the organization would be good enough agai
Harvey York smiled before he said, “Not only are you martial artists still not proficient in your crafts, but you’re also always out here taking advantage of the people at large. You’ll suffer sooner or later once you bump into someone stronger than you.“The Silver Elixir’s an impressive product. You might just need it soon.“After all, prevention is the best medicine.”Harvey casually spoke up, as if he could not be bothered about Arlo Bierstadt’s threats at all.“Bump into someone stronger?Arlo let out a cold chuckle.“Are you threatening me when you’re here selling this?Arlo instantly slapped the ointments to the ground.“I’ll deal with you right now! Mark my words!“I’ll smear your entire body with your own product! We’ll see if your products work or not soon enough!”“He’s paying you respect for giving you the damn medicine! Who gave you the courage to run your mouth like that?!”A cold tone could be heard from afar when a group of people came over.The disciples fu
The disciples gasped after hearing those words.They never thought that Harvey York would have Trey Bierstadt’s support…But after looking at Katy Cobb, they could also tell what happened.‘This kept man probably sold his woman out for Trey…’‘If that wasn’t the case, why would someone as powerful as Trey even protect Harvey?’“Shut the f*ck up!Trey was so scared that he instantly kicked Arlo Bierstadt down.“I’m nothing in front of Sir York!“Why would he even need my support?! Are you insane?!“Stop spouting nonsense already!“If you weren’t my junior, I would’ve already cut you down!After kicking Arlo a couple more times, then Trey dragged Arlo in front of Harvey before forcing him to kneel.“ Kneel properly and apologize!“If he doesn’t forgive you, then just prepare to die!Trey slapped Arlo a few more times before he showed a regretful expression on his face.“I’m really sorry, Sir York! I didn’t teach him properly!”“Senior, you…”Arlo’s eyes were twitching fr
Harvey York was impressed by Trey Bierstadt’s show of display.He had always been the one being threatened. He had never known what being on the other side was like.‘Julian York should’ve taught Trey better so he could behave himself.‘Country H is a country of etiquette. Since he belongs to me, I can’t just let him make threats like digging up someone’s ancestors and burning them…’After hearing Trey’s words, all the disciples kneeled in fear with their backs straight.Inside the Porsche 718, Ellen Moreno’s jaw dropped when she froze in place for the longest time.She could not believe what she just saw.She and Eden Cobb had been planning for a long while. They even paid a huge price for Arlo Bierstadt to show up at this moment.Not only did they want Harvey’s business to stay shut, but they were also going to force him to hand over the formula.But nothing happened as planned. Arlo and the others kneeled without warning.Ellen could not even comprehend the sight in front
“Do you hear that?! Sir York wants you to use it where it hurts!”Trey Bierstadt glared at Arlo Bierstadt coldly before stomping on his left wrist.“Aaagh!”Screams of pain could be heard when Arlo’s hand snapped.He would not dare struggle after that. He had no choice but to keep kneeling on the ground.Then, Trey applied the ointment on Arlo’s hand before putting on a bandage.“This is how you use the ointment!”After hearing Trey's words, Arlo and the others were frantically twitching their eyes. The disciples were all trembling in their boots.They were terrified when they looked into Harvey York’s eyes.They knew full well that an arm or two would not be enough to use up the entire pot of ointment.“Heh heh! You’re pretty petty yourself, Harvey!”Ellen Moreno was boiling in anger when she saw Harvey abusing his authority.She planned for so many things just to see how miserable Harvey would get. She never expected the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance to fear him wi
Yvonne Xavier and Ray Hart froze when they saw Noemi Moreno show up.“Ah, CEO Moreno. You’re pretty well-informed, and I didn’t think you’d be able to figure out our flight schedule accurately.“Interesting.”Noemi showed a faint smile.“My daughter’s the daughter-in-law of the Cobb family, after all.“It’s customary for us to know when you’re here to celebrate the Cobb family’s anniversary event.Yvonne and Ray looked at each other before showing profound looks on their faces.“Why don’t you let me treat you to a meal now that you’re here?“I’ll treat you to the best local meals tonight. How does that sound?”“I’m sorry, CEO Moreno. We’re going to see the chairman right now.“Maybe another time.”Yvonne turned around and left after that.Ray showed an apologetic smile before following behind.Noemi did not get angry after being rejected. Rather, she froze before showing an expression full of shock.‘The chairman?‘The legendary man himself?‘He’s here in the city?!‘I
As time passed, guests gradually started to arrive.Mercedes, Ferraris, Porsches, and other luxury cars were showing up one after another. All the people who arrived looked extremely extravagant.They were all neatly dressed, with jewelry covering their entire bodies. They were moving past the crowd with tall glasses in their hands, as if they were attending a high-end banquet.They would occasionally chat with the others while laughing out loud before showing playful expressions when looking at Harvey York and the others.Compared to their extravagant event, Harvey’s store was completely invisible.‘What a pity…’‘No journalists from TV stations or newspapers…’‘No well-known guests…’‘No celebrity models to hype the scene…’Without free money and drinks, even ordinary people did not bother heading over.Other than “free samples” written on the sign, there was nothing else to indicate that Harvey’s business was officially open.The people could not help but laugh at such an
After seeing the organized and classy look of the Cobb family, Ellen Moreno could not help but chuckle at Harvey York when she looked back with a cold expression.“I could give you a flower basket and buy a box of whatever ointment you have to get your business running.”The people behind Ellen chuckled after hearing Ellen’s words.‘A country bumpkin from Country H put his heart and soul into opening a store, and then what happened?’‘Not even a single customer came! He’s even relying on the goddess who left him to bless him with a flower basket!’‘This is just pathetic at this point!’Harvey sipped his tea before casually replying, “No need. Your flower basket has no right to be here.“We also have no space for you here.”Ellen’s expression changed.“Heh heh heh! There’s no space for me?!“Keep pretending!“Do you think you’re impressive just because you know Trey Bierstadt?!“Do you think you’re the king of the world?!“You’re a nobody here!Ellen let out a cold chuckle
Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Early?"Yvonne nodded. "Correct. According to our sources, he went to a rest stop about 10 miles away from Wolsing to pick up someone."Harvey was quite curious. "Who can make Linus so passionate to welcome? Who is this person?"Yvonne massaged her forehead. "Speaking of which, this man can be considered your subordinate in a way. Unfortunately, it's fate that he won't be under your control."Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds?""That's right. The scion of the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds in Parkerville, Dan Parker. Previously, he requested to marry someone from the Wright family, and the Wright family had officially responded. He'll soon be the son-in-law of the Wright family," Yvonne explained sternly.Harvey was slightly stunned. "The son-in-law of the Wright family? Which means…Sienna's fiancé?"Meanwhile, at the rest stop 10 miles away… The rest stop which was usually quite plain was lavishly
Harvey had been freed, but there was still some paperwork that needed to be done.Harvey was patient, as if he really wanted the key to the city and prevent Country A from trying to stir up another storm with him. He was very cooperative throughout the entire process.Only once all the paperwork was done did Soren sigh in relief. "Leave the rest to us, Harvey. In the next few days, stay discreet so no one will get you into any problem.""What? I've already proven that I'm innocent. What kind of problems will there be?" Harvey said curiously.Soren didn't want to hide anything from Harvey and said with a bitter smile, "I won't lie to you. While the people who died were from Country H, they had already obtained permanent residency in Country A, which meant that they were a part of Country A as well. Just today, Country A's side had already given us pressure through their embassy."Logically speaking, we have to find the culprit as soon as possible. However, all the evidence we've co
Ten minutes later, Soren personally asked Harvey to join him in the director's office. After a pot of hot tea had been brewed and poured, he sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for today. It's my subordinates' blunders. He did whatever he wanted already despite just being promoted. I'll be sure to make up to you."Harvey smiled. "I can understand that with your family's size, you'll inadvertently end up with a few people with questionable behavior. You better keep an eye on things and don't let one person ruin everything for you and your family. Wolsing is different from Golden Sands. You have to be extremely careful when you're here."Harvey's words were cold, but it was enough to make Soren think about it. Meanwhile, Garrick, who was standing there with his arms next to him, almost fell on his knees as he felt his legs lose strength. Since simple words from Harvey had already ended his future."Of course… It's best if someone can correct themselves after knowing the errors of their
"Ha! What an idiot! Who does he think he is? If he really is someone important, why is he even here?" Snowe sneered.The only emotion Snowe had for Harvey was disdain. She despised men who have no capabilities at all the most.Garrick and the others went to the main hall of the precinct. Everyone from Country A had been told to go home. At this moment, a row of cars with flags drove toward the entrance of the precinct. Judging from the car plates and the flags on the car, it was obvious the person inside the car was someone important within the police force. Very quickly, the door was opened. Garrick and the others saw the most important and newly promoted man within the police force in Wolsing—Soren Braff, ranked two within the Braff family.There were several high-level members of the police force with him in white uniforms, and all of them exuded an incredibly powerful presence. The moment Garrick and the others saw Soren appearing, they quickly greeted him with a smile."Wh
Hearing Harvey's conversation, the beautiful female officer said in disdain, "What? Are you pretending to contact someone from the Braff family? Do you think that's enough to scare the director? Our director is someone important within the family! If you really know the people from the Braff family, why wouldn't he know you?"I'm telling you right now. If you really did call someone from the Braff family, I, Snowe Leo, will eat this phone right in front of everyone!"In the beginning, Garrick was taken aback as well. But after he quickly glanced at the number on the screen, he smiled coldly. "You probably didn't know this, but aside from the number of my family's patriarch, I've saved the number of everyone important in the family. Do you want to trick me using just a random number? You're quite bold!""Really, now?" Harvey said with a smile. "At the very least, you know that you don't have the right to know his number. In that case, I'll help you delete that number. It won't be g
"Ha… I'm the director of the precinct in the Third Ring, and I'm not worth your time?" Garrick was so angry that he was laughing. "You made yourself sound like you're someone very capable. Come on, show me just how capable you are right now!"Garrick immediately grabbed his phone and tossed it at Harvey. "Come on, make a call! If you can find someone who can overpower me, I'll bend my knee right now."The other two officers also looked at Harvey as if they were looking like a fool. "Forget the fact that you're just an ex-live-in son-in-law… Even if you really did become a CEO through your own abilities, what is there to be proud of?" the female officer said with a smirk. In her eyes, Harvey was just a loser. If a man like him wanted to pursue her, he would have already kicked him to the rub.Harvey didn't waste his breath and immediately picked up the phone, giving Eliel Braff a call. Very quickly, the call came through and a stern voice came from the other side. "Who is thi
"Your deduction is quite interesting. Sounds like a detective show, to be honest," Harvey said calmly. "Unfortunately, I have a clear conscience. Why should I admit to a crime I never committed?""Not you?" The female officer slammed the table again. "If you didn't do it, why are you so willing to cooperate with us? You're telling me it isn't because you're feeling guilty? Harvey York, you have to understand that the crime you committed is very serious, especially when the person you killed is from Country A!"If the Embassy sends a specialist to interfere with this investigation, you're going to be in trouble. You better confess when the precinct can still help you. Otherwise, I'm afraid there's nothing you can change no matter how much you regret it in the future."Their phones would buzz every once in a while, which meant new information coming in. From the new information, not only was Harvey the live-in son-in-law of the Jeans of Mordu, one of the top ten families, but he was a
"A lawyer?" Garrick scoffed. "Forget about a lawyer, it's pointless even if you find a wizard! I've already read your information. The CEO of Sky Corporation? Maybe in other cities, the CEO of a public company deserves some respect, but don't forget that this is Wolsing, the country's seat of power! There are plenty of CEOs walking around here!"When you're in Wolsing, it doesn't matter who you are, or what kind of special identity you have. Those who commit crimes here will be punished! You won't be given any special treatment!"Garrick then looked at Harvey as if he had an advantage over him. "Confess the crimes you've committed! That way, I can grant you some leeway. Otherwise, you'll suffer a terrible death!"Harvey merely looked at Garrick briefly and said, "You didn't interrogate me, and you didn't show me any evidence. All you do is to tell me to confess. I must say, you're quite tough. But aren't you afraid of accidentally offending the wrong people here in Wolsing, especial
Yvonne frowned slightly when she realized what Garrick meant. "Director, my boss isn't a suspect. He's only here…""Whether he's a suspect or not isn't up to you or me. It's up to the law and the evidence," Garrick said, glaring at Yvonne. His gaze became somewhat sleazy, and he began to scheme how he could use this scenario to throw this beautiful woman into his bed.He continued to say righteously, "Ma'am, I'm warning you. You better not interrupt our investigation. Of course, if you have something to say, you can always lodge a complaint to the office."After that, he waved his hand, and the two officers behind him led Harvey into the interrogation room. Seeing what had happened, Yvonne hesitated a little before sending out a message quickly on her phone.This was something quite serious. If Harvey went in because of this, it would be quite troublesome for the Xavier family as well. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be convenient for the Xaviers to do anything…Meanwhile, Harvey w
