Allen Olford quickly came to his senses and crawled toward Harvey York before he started groveling right in front of him.“I’m sorry, Governor York! I was just ignorant! I didn’t know anything!“Please be the bigger person and let me go! Just pretend that I was clowning around!Then, Allen kept slapping himself around nonstop.“Please! Give me a chance!”All of his trusted subordinates slammed their knees to the ground in fear after seeing the sight.They all also have heard of Harvey’s great achievements.Soon, a whole group of people was kneeling with their backs straight in front of Harvey’s store.Noemi Moreno and the others were completely stunned when their eyes were frantically twitching.They could not understand why Allen was just about to teach Harvey a lesson a minute ago…And then he was acting like a scared cat right after that.‘Are you kidding me?!’‘Isn’t Harvey just a country bumpkin?!’‘Does he have another identity?!’‘How did he manage to get Allen to
Grandma Cobb looked as if she had been dead for three whole days.Then, Gordon Moreno stepped up while laughing heartily.“Congratulations on your opening, Harvey York!“Here’s a gift on behalf of the South Sea Marital Arts Alliance! I hope you like it!”Gordon then waved his hand before a few disciples of the organization brought over a plaque.The plaque had four words written on it.“Cobb family’s Silver Elixir!”Other than that, the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance’s signature was also left under the plaque.Without any promises or orders…It was clear that the organization was planning to buy all of its ointments from Harvey!More importantly, with the plaque here, nobody would dare go against Harvey, even if the business were to expand in the city.At this point, the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance was clearly on his side!The benefits were endless!“What?!”Noemi Moreno and the others understood that fact.When they saw the sight, they could not help but stumble on
“Harvey York…”Ellen Moreno was completely stunned when she stared at the man she had never once looked up to…An unbelievable thought came to her mind.Eden Cobb was one of the most well-known young masters in the city, but if he wanted all of those prominent figures to respect him and earn the plaque…It would be challenging, to say the least.Even if he actually could, he would need at least decades to do so!And with Eden’s capabilities, he would never be able to accomplish something like this!Unless he became a God of War, of course…But how was he going to do that when he could barely even fight?What a joke!Ellen was filled with despair and regret after realizing all this.“Harvey’s the true prominent figure here, after all.“He’s so strong that the three great families are just jokes to him.“He doesn’t care about anything. He doesn’t get mad not because he’s weak and powerless…“He’s acting this way because nothing truly matters in his eyes!“I thought he was
What a total shame. Grandma Cobb chased Katy Cobb out of the family to let Eden Cobb rise to power. In return, she threw away their best opportunity for the family to prosper.The future of the family was gone. They managed to offend an unimaginably powerful character in the process.Everyone instinctively glared at Grandma Cobb, full of hatred and disdain.They wanted to know just how she was going to deal with the situation.Grandma Cobb furiously held her cane as she gritted her teeth.She knew full well that there was no way out of the situation anymore.Safe to say that the family had no choice but to endure the humiliation while Harvey York and Katy basked in glory.She wanted to become a God of War herself and slap Harvey to the ground so badly.“Grandma Cobb…Katy casually walked out from behind Harvey.“Are you regretting your decisions now?”Grandma Cobb’s eyes frantically twitched. She was getting hysterical, as if this was the last straw.“Who are you calling th
‘Sided with justice?’‘Do what’s right?’The Cobb family was on the verge of coughing out blood after hearing those words.‘You lying sack of sh*t!’Before the Cobb family even said another word, Gael Padlow immediately spoke up with a righteous look.“You people are shameless, hoping to quietly move all of Katy’s assets away after I sue her!“But a just man like me would never stand with you scoundrels!“I agreed to work with you people. I even made you believe that I was actually beaten up by Sir York!“You fell right into my trap, and that was when I stopped suing Katy and returned her assets where they belonged!“The procedures were all prepared soon after that!”Harvey showed an odd look when he glanced at Gael.Actually, he begged to be Harvey’s subordinate, yet he acted all high and mighty about the entire situation.As expected from a true talent…Harvey could not be bothered to expose him, though. He was fine with it as long as it had the same effect.Grandma Cob
Without question, Grandma Cobb was getting extremely desperate.The things she should not have said were all flooding right out of her mouth.‘He has no power yet wants the family to crumble?‘What a joke!’In her brilliant mind, a God of War, let alone some random stranger, meant nothing to her.Noemi and Ellen Moreno felt relieved after hearing Grandma Cobb’s words.After all, Harvey York had no way to crush the Cobb family, no matter how powerful he was.The Cobb family was still one of the three great families!The Cobb family was still in Grandma Cobb’s total control!The Cobb family’s next successor was still destined to be Eden Cobb!So what if they were being disrespected at this moment?The only thing that mattered was the assets!“Is that so?Harvey showed a faint smile before snapping his fingers.“Looks like you were right after all, Elder Cobb.“The person who poisoned you has been the one you held most dear!”An exhausted voice could be heard from inside t
“Leave!”Before Harvey could do anything, Katy wiped the tears off her face and slapped Valery aside.“Step aside! You’re embarrassing everyone here!”“How dare you hit me?!”“What right do you have to do that?”Valery was boiling with anger; she marched forward to retaliate, but Katy slapped her again. The others wanted to help, but they were all frightened by Dean’s gaze. Thus, they had no choice but to stand there and watch.Dean was a God of War; though he had been crippled for many years, his fierce aura could still be felt clearly.If it weren’t for Grandma Cobb’s schemes and Julio’s challenge, he would still be the head of the Cobb family.“Enough!” Grandma Cobb yelled after seeing Valery daring to embarrass herself again.“Stop embarrassing yourself! Get back here already!”“Impressive, you old b*stard!”“I’ll remember you as well, Harvey!” Grandma Cobb exclaimed vengefully.“That said, do you think you can ruin my reputation like this? Do you think you can make m
“Grandma Cobb!”Eden and the others quickly rushed forward, panicking.“Are you alright?!”Valery and the rest glared at Harvey, and screamed at him.“You’re completely heartless, Harvey!”“We’ve been letting you off the hook even though you kept causing us trouble!”“I didn’t think you’d be this ungrateful and do such a thing to Grandma Cobb!”“You b*stard!”Harvey was unperturbed by Valery and the others’ baseless accusations.“I’m giving you one day,” he said.“If Katy doesn’t have authority over the family within that time…”“If Eden and Valery’s legs aren’t broken by then…”“The Cobb family will fall!”Upon hearing Harvey’s casual tone, Grandma Cobb could only see darkness.She held her chest, her face a wretched expression.“How dare you, you b*stard?!”“Dean! How dare you work with an outsider against your own wife?”Harvey smiled calmly.Dean, meanwhile, revealed no emotion.“You can’t do this, Harvey!” Ellen exclaimed instinctively.“Don’t you understand th
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
