After exchanging an eye signal with Quinn Zimmer, Zack Zimmer stood up with a strict expression.“Grandfather, I think we should try it out if the Silvas are actually willing to arrange a marriage with our family.”He had thoroughly thought about it. If Quinn were to marry someone from the Silvas, the family could stand firm in Buckwood.If that were to happen, he could use the collaboration with the Naiswells to get closer to Rosalie Naiswell and become their family’s son-in-law!With the Silvas’ and the Naiswells’ support, who would dare to even oppose the Zimmers?Quinn had come back to her senses with a face full of excitement.“Grandfather, if my husband’s family would like to collaborate with ours, how could we possibly give up on this opportunity?!”Quinn Zimmer was opposing the idea with a face full of righteousness just before, it showed how quickly she could turn against someone faster than turning a page of a book.She was selected to have a marriage with the young m
The Zimmer family meeting had ended before Harvey York, Mandy Zimmer, and Lilian Yates even arrived. If Harvey were present, he would’ve stopped the collaboration immediately.He knew what kind of family that the Silvas were. All those years, people that had worked with them had their blood sucked dry by the Silvas.***When Harvey and the others arrived at the main hall of the Zimmer Villa, only Simon Zimmer with a face as dark as night had remained.“Dad…”“Father…”“Hey old man, didn’t you say that there was a family meeting? Why are you the only one here? You were about to announce something, right? What’s up?”Lilian had dressed up gorgeously at that moment. She heard in her husband’s tone that he had succeeded in Buckwood, that was why she wanted to show her best and spent more time doing makeup.A shame that she had arrived late.Simon’s face was as pale as snow. He tilted his head up slowly like a beast and glared at Lilian coldly, then shifted his gaze toward Mandy.
Niumhi at night was very deserted.Harvey York did not drive his Porsche when he was driven out. Hence, he could only find a shared EV and rode it.This was because it was past ten o'clock in the evening, there was no one at the company, not even the security guards.Harvey searched his whole body and found that he had not brought any cash with him. Reluctantly, he could only call Wendy Sorrell.He could not call Yvonne Xavier because she was still recovering from her injuries. Thus, it was not a good time to call to disturb her recuperation.On the other end of the phone, Wendy was putting on makeup in the apartment. She quickly stood up when she received the call. She still spoke respectfully even though she was talking over the phone, “CEO, why are you calling at this hour of the night?”Harvey was also a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, he still said, “I have no place to stay tonight. Can you arrange a place for me?”Wendy was stunned for a moment. Her face f
“Pfft…” The bellboy laughed. After looking at Harvey York up and down for a moment, he pointed to the luxury cars beside him, and said, “Sir, look at what you are driving and what you are wearing, then look at the cars at our parking lot. Do you think you are qualified to come and patronize this place?”“The money we spend one night here, I’m afraid you won’t even make that much money in your life!”“Who stipulates that you must drive a luxury car when you come to the gathering? What’s wrong with riding in a shared EV?” Harvey smiled helplessly. He would have driven in his Porsche here if he had known that the bellboy in the private clubhouse would be a snob like this.“Brother, let me tell you the truth. I don’t care whether you want to show off or you want to hit on girls. In short, this place is not suitable for you!” The bellboy said earnestly.“This is a private clubhouse. All the services must be reserved in advance. Do you think you are eligible to make an appointment?”
Feeling the action of the other party, Harvey York turned his body and quickly slapped the young man in his face.Slap!With a crisp sound, the young man was dumbfounded after being slapped.He covered his face, staggered back a few steps, and almost fell to the ground.“Damn! What are you! How dare you hit me?! How dare you be so arrogant as a driver?! You are dead!” The young man gritted his teeth angrily.“I’m kindly reminding you. Don’t come to provoke me again, or you’ll be dead.” Harvey said indifferently and walked toward the clubhouse.The bellboy was dumbfounded.What was going on?This driver had the nerve to slap a person who drives a Porsche.Was he trying to get himself killed?He hurried to the young man and asked, “Sir, are you alright?!”“I’m fine. Why wouldn’t I be? However, I’m afraid some people will have trouble tonight!” The young man sneered again and again.This clubhouse has been booked tonight. Those who entered the clubhouse now could not escape.
The people around Tyler Zane looked at Harvey York and said, “He might not be a driver. Maybe he’s just a poor guy who wants to get in and flatter us?” Tyler smiled and said, “That’s right. Maybe he just found an invitation card luckily, thinking that he’s qualified to come to our party and that he can join our circle. It’s ridiculous!”“This kind of people, who the hell do they think they are? They naively think that once they get in, no one will know about their true identity. Our circle is very small. No one is out of reach.”“How about going to play with him?”“Let’s go. This trash, since he dares to get into our circle, we’ll have to teach him a lesson. I’m initially worried that I’ll have nothing to do tonight!” Tyler smiled.“How about I go to him first, Brother Zane?” The man said with a grin. He was certainly buttering Tyler up.Tyler squinted and nodded. He was a man with a well-known identity. Now someone offered to help him. He was overjoyed.The man walked up to Ha
“Could it be that Master Zane was going to kneel?”At this moment, many people around began to heckle.This circle was certainly not united, and there were more internal intrigues and rivalries.This party tonight was organized by Wendy Sorrell. Many single and rich second generations wanted to use this opportunity to impress her.At this moment, Tyler was making trouble and might annoy the organizer, Wendy. Would this not make everyone have more opportunities?Tyler felt that he was being put on the spot facing the boisterous crowd.Tyler initially wanted to avoid this scene. After all, Wendy was the main character tonight. If he caused any trouble at this time, it meant not giving her face.Furthermore, Wendy was now an executive of York Enterprise.Recently, rumors were stating that she might replace Yvonne Xavier as the secretary of the mysterious new CEO. If that was the case, she would be the second most powerful person in York Enterprise.Who dared to offend her at this
After hearing what Harvey York said, for some reason, he was so frightened that his legs softened, and kneeled on the ground.“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I just did what Tyler said. This has nothing to do with me!”“Well, I’ll forgive you.”Harvey called for a waiter and picked up a glass of wine. He then slowly poured it on the person’s head.That person did not even dare to avoid it.What happened to Tyler Zane was still vivid. He did not want to be smashed by Harvey.“I’m going to kill you! I certainly am going to kill you! Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me like this? You’re dead!” Tyler struggled to speak.“It doesn’t matter who you are. Since you don’t know me, it means that you aren’t doing well in this circle. You’re not even considered as a rich second generation from a second-class family. And here you are, being pretentious in front of me?” Harvey smiled faintly.He did not talk nonsense. Those who had participated in the previous Antique Fair held by the Naiswel
"Enough. There's no point staying here. This place is cold and lifeless. Let's return to Wolsing. We can have something hot together. I also have something I want to talk with you about," Samuel said as he patted Harvey's shoulder. Then, Samuel wanted to take Harvey with him."Nah," Harvey suddenly said. "I need to send Mandy back home first. Maybe over a cup of tea with milk to warm her body and stop her from shaking. We can go out another time."Everyone was stunned after they heard what Harvey had just said. How could Harvey reject an invitation from someone important like Samuel? Just… Who was he?But before they could even recover, Neve suddenly grabbed a hand crossbow from one of her followers and pointed it toward Harvey. It was clear that she was still upset. The madness on her face was tinged by vengefulness and pain as she shouted, "I know you're more important than any of us, Mr. Samuel! I know someone like you can ignore all the laws in this world! But where's justice in
It was obvious that Lanny had no choice but to say that. Since if she did not do that, not only would she ruin the Bennett family's reputation, but the entire Grand City's reputation would also be tarnished.""Oh, right. You're called Lanny? And you're threatening me with your predecessor? Are you from White Peak by any chance?" Samuel asked curiously.Lanny gritted her teeth and replied, "That's right. I'm from White Peak, one of the Seven Families of Grand City."Samuel smirked and said, "I have dueled Ares Bennett three times, and he lost to me three times. If I wanted to, I could have slain him immediately the last time if I wanted to. That's why Ares has to call me Mr. Samuel whenever he sees me on the street and listens to me. You're just a greenhorn from White Peak… And you're pretending to be something special before me?"Samuel did not bother showing Lanny any respect. "Not to mention, everyone here has a good head on their shoulders. What really happened and what the trut
"It's all a misunderstanding, Mr. Samuel!" said Lanny with a darkened expression."But just now, I heard something about fighting to the last man, and there were so many weapons being used here that were targeted against martial artists. Are you telling me there's a misunderstanding? Do I look like a fool?" Samuel gave a cold smile and waved his hand.A formless wave of energy instantly rolled against Lanny's men. Lanny and the others were shocked and used everything they could to block this attack, which took them by surprise.But it was useless.In just an instant, all the Grand City's youths did everything they could, but all of them had to take three steps back as they coughed out a mouthful of blood.Some distance away, some men with longbows and crossbows also grunted as they fell to the ground.In just a simple attack, the Forbidden Wasteland's defenses instantly crumbled.Perhaps this was what they meant by invincibility.No one from Grand City dared stand beside Harvey
The man who came wore a white robe with a cold expression. He looked around and spoke clearly, "I heard someone say my young master has committed murder. I'm here to see if any evidence and witnesses are saying so. If I find any of them are fake, I'll slay those and their families who claim so!"He said it casually, like an old man making a comment while sweeping the streets. However, everyone here could feel their heart skipping a beat.There was only silence.Even Ethan's gaze froze for a moment. That was because he sensed an aura from the old man, which was extremely close to the chief instructor.He was an elite!As for the rest of those from Grand City, they were all stunned. The old man was able to hover in the air. This could only be done when one had become one with nature! Could it be that other elites who were not from the Grand City had reached the same level?Even Lanny, who boasted that a great power supported her, could not help but watch, her expression pale and in
"You are really quite impressive, Ethan. But do you dare to go against the Ministry of Defense's orders openly? I suggest you better give your great elder a call. Or maybe wait for him to call you!" Lanny said as if she had gotten an ace in a hole."I'm worried that you'll accidentally cause a chain effect and lose everything," Ethan coldly replied as he stared at Lanny with a similar coldness in his eyes. To him, none of his leaders could compare with the importance of the chief instructor. But the problem was, he could not inform the great elder why he did this. That was why even someone resolute like Ethan could not help but frown.However, his expression quickly returned calm. "Looks like Grand City isn't as powerful. Not only can you do nothing to me, but you even have to use your favors and connections from the past to stop me. And now, I'm even more convinced that Mr. Harvey is innocent! So, my apologies, but tonight, I don't care who calls me… I'm not going to stop!"Then, E
"You have reasons?" There was fury in Lanny's eyes. "Then tell me, what reasons are they?"Ethan seemed disdainful. "With your status? You don't have the right to know what the reasons are."He did not make that up, though. Lanny really did not have the authority to know Harvey's actual status. "Alright, let's not waste our time. Tell your people to put down your weapons, raise their hands, and squat over there. All my friends here are very impatient. If both sides went into conflict and accidentally killed a few people…"Well. It's going to be categorized as a training exercise accident. We don't have to bear any responsibility for it."Ethan's words were calm, as if everything he said made total and natural sense."Ethan!" Lanny shuddered in anger. "Grand City and the Ministry of Defense have always kept a respectful distance from each other. Are you going to make Grand City your enemy just for this man over here? Have you considered the consequences and whether it was worth it?
Grand City was outside the usual system within Country H. However, the truth was that it was a place where all the Sacred Training Grounds congregated together. Whether it was Country H in its current form or when all the other dynasties ruled it, it had always been an untouchable faction.Not to mention that they were protected by the Seven Families as well as the other Sacred Training Grounds. If they decided to fight, the power Grand City could call upon could far surpass what others could have imagined.That was why Lanny believed they had a fighting chance even when they faced the legendary Sword Camp."Grand City's reputation really does precede itself. And you're really quite impressive yourself," Ethan said as he clapped his hands. "If it's someone else, they would be kneeling on the ground shuddering, right? Unfortunately, you forgot that we survived on real battlefields. We do not fear death. Besides the Chief Instructor, every soldier in this camp is a King of Arms! Even
Harvey slightly frowned. He was shocked that Ethan had arrived. He even brought 500 soldiers from the Sword Camp. Was he attempting to destroy the entire Forbidden Wasteland?The 500 soldiers immediately encircled the entire Forbidden Wasteland as Harvey calmly watched how things developed. All of them had a sword by their waist, and their right hand was at the hilt. While they had not pulled out their swords yet, they were exuding a malevolent aura around them.Harvey had trained each of them, and they had all gone to war with him in the past. When they saw that Harvey was completely unharmed, they were both filled with excitement and relief. However, because of their orders, none of them went to salute him."So, this is the famous Forbidden Wasteland of World City. It was said that the people who were imprisoned here could never leave. I wonder if the Sword Camp can leave this place in one piece?"Ethan, who was in his military uniform, jumped off from the helicopter in mid-air.
Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lanny. There was only disdain in his eyes. "You said that you're doing everything by your law… But in truth, you simply want to make things worse. Despite looking like an agent of justice right now, what is happening right now is what you wanted the most."I'm the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, which makes me the mayor of Grand City in name. Whether you want to interrogate or set me up, all of you must consider the consequences of your actions. But what if I was the one that did it first? That would give you a reason to attack me, right?"I have to admit that it indeed worked in your favor, Lanny. But it also showed me the truth about Grand City! Rules and laws that have existed since ancient times? All of them were jokes and excuses!"Blade listened to Harvey with a dark expression, as if his beliefs were challenged. Meanwhile, Lanny remained calm. She breathed deeply and gave a cold reply, "Stop wasting your breath, Ha
