Normally speaking, a live-in son-in-law would not have that much money in the first place.Let alone a Black Card.‘What a joke!’A few beautiful staff were showing disdainful grins.‘It’s already bad enough for a man to be kept like this, yet he even stole his wife’s money to make a Black Card!’‘Not only is he embarrassing himself, but he’s also completely immoral!’‘People like that should be drowned!’Harvey York started to frown.“This is my money.”“Your money?Alma John let out a cold chuckle.“You’re just a kept man who clung to Mandy because you couldn’t fend for yourself! You could never have this much money in the first place!“You definitely stole the Zimmer family’s money!“This is illegal! It’s unforgivable!Then, Alma gave Mandy Zimmer a call.“Come here quick, Mandy! This is really bad!”Obviously, she wanted to use this opportunity to kick Harvey out of Mandy’s life.That way, her brother would be able to claim her all for himself.“Now you’re just be
Alma John did not expect that Harvey York’s card was made that long ago.‘Maybe this live-in son-in-law is really some sort of mysterious prominent character…Alma could not help but shudder after thinking about the situation, but she quickly came to her senses.‘What kind of big character would even become a live-in son-in-law in the first place?‘What a joke!Alma glared at Harvey coldly, as if she got the entire situation figured out.“I get it now! He must’ve stolen all this money from somewhere long ago!“He never touched the money after that!“And now, he’s planning to use all of it after everything died down!“What a heinous filth!Alma showed a disdainful expression on her face.“That said, how are you even this stupid?“Don’t you know that banks will definitely check for the source of the money if you withdraw a large amount from a Black Card?“You’re finished if we find out the money came from a suspicious source!“This amount can get you behind bars for the res
“What?!Alma John froze before showing a horrible look.“You must be mistaken, Mr. Osborne!“Sky Corporation transferred him the money?!“This is impossible!”“What do you mean by that?” exclaimed Mr. Osborne with a cold glare.“Sir York clearly looks like a talented and personable young man! He must be the person Prince York himself looks up to!“It’s perfectly normal for him to get the funds in the first place!”“There’s no way!Alma was starting to panic.“He’s just a live-in son-in-law, a kept man! Why would he even have connections with someone like Prince York himself?!“This is wrong! It has to be!Alma could not accept the fact that Harvey’s Black Card was even real and that the account had so much money.“Make another call, Mr. Osborne! There has to be a mistake!”Mandy Zimmer showed a peculiar expression when she glanced at Harvey. She knew that Harvey had many different identities, but she did not think that he still had something to hide even then.Harvey get
Seeing Mr. Osborne gritting his teeth, Alma knew full well that she wouldn’t be able to survive if she didn’t apologize.“I’m sorry,” she said quietly through gritted teeth.“Are you now?”Harvey smiled faintly at her reaction.“You ridicule and slander me, then you bring my wife here to turn against me.”“You don’t even look sincere when you apologize. Hell, you look as if I owe you millions or something.”“You really think a simple apology is going to solve anything?”Alma frowned, and immediately shot Harvey a cold glare.“At the end of the day, you were the one who borrowed the money!”“You still need to give it back sooner or later!”“You think you’re some hotshot or something?!”“Enough is enough, Harvey!” Alma went on, snarling. “Don’t try to cross the line!”Mandy hesitated.“Let’s just forget about it, Harvey. It’s just a misunderstanding.”“Alma’s part of the John family. It’s better if we don’t cross them.”“The John family?”Harvey smiled.“It doesn’t matte
Seeing Alma jumping around in pride, Harvey could only smile.“Are you sure you won’t eat your words after this?”Mandy’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that, and she quickly tugged Harvey’s arm.“Forget it, Harvey. Stop this for me. Alma’s my friend.”She then flashed a sincere expression at Alma.“Hear me out, Alma. You should apologize to Harvey and forget about this too, okay?”Naturally, she knew that with Harvey’s methods, it would be all too easy for him to fire Alma.It was a shame Alma considered Mandy’s kindness to be Harvey’s protection.“You want me to apologize to this piece of crap? Are you kidding me?!” Alma coldly exclaimed with a fierce glare.“You want me to apologize?”“I’ll apologize when he’s six feet under!”Following her exclamation, the beautiful workers around all scoffed derisively.They all had disdainful expressions, thinking that Harvey was just too cocky for his own good.Harvey, however, ignored Alma completely and instead looked at Mr.
Before Alma could come to her senses, Harvey had already dragged Mandy out of the place.Mandy wanted to say something, but she knew there was no turning back at this point.When the car reached the suburbs, Harvey’s phone suddenly rang.Kellan was the one who called.After picking up the call, a loud voice pierced Harvey’s ears.“This is bad, Sir York!”Harvey was curious.“What on earth can happen right now?”Kellan gritted his teeth in frustration.“Cliff doesn’t know how to do his job at all!”“After making sure that Idris isn’t his actual son, he planned to take Idris and his mother out!”“He already picked a date to rip the two apart!”“That said, we found the place Zarla and Idris hid.”“But the two had vanished right after that!”“This had nothing to do with you, but you were the one who started it…”Kellan’s tone became grim. “Zarla and Idris might just cause you trouble.”Harvey shook his head, helpless.“That idiot!”Since Zarla and Idris were saved, it c
“It’s only natural that we settle scores with you, right?” Elan continued with a righteous expression.After hearing those names, Harvey was reminded of something that Kellan told him.“You two were students cast out of Heaven’s Gate, right?”“If I remember correctly, Heaven’s Gate has a pretty big bounty on your heads.”Kellan told Harvey that these two were extremely heinous. They didn’t hesitate to kill some of their fellow disciples for the sake of a ruthless martial arts.It was why they were being hunted down by Heaven’s Gate.Harvey didn’t expect Idris to have such a background.He didn’t know that the mother and son would come for him immediately after escaping.Reminding himself that Mandy was still inside the car, Harvey was careful to be discreet.“True, I was the one who caused Cliff to be like that. But you can’t blame me for everything, right?”“The truth was about to come out sooner or later.”“Why don’t we deal with this another way?’“I’ll give you a hundre
It was an utterly shocking sight.Elan, who was smoking his cigar, looked utterly bewildered. His junior slid down the windshield right in front of his eyes, covered in injuries.After seeing what happened, he was completely infuriated.“You b*stard! How dare you lay your hands on my junior? Have you thought of the consequences of doing such a thing?!’Elan screamed in rage, preparing to strike a devastating blow.But before he could even move, Harvey’s slap had already landed on his face.He was immediately sent flying, and crashed right into the trunk.By then, he could only see Harvey’s emotionless face before him.“You’re no good, but you talk a lot.”Harvey calmly wiped his fingers with some tissue.Elan didn’t think that he’d be defeated before he even made a move.Meanwhile, Aella was on the verge of coughing up blood upon seeing her superior defeated; she no longer had the strength to even stand up.Harvey calmly took out his phone before dialing a number.“Clean
Harvey smiled. "Aren't you afraid that it'll cause discord once your words reach back to Grand City if you praise me this much? I'm going to Grand City eventually."Geoffrey's eyes slightly narrowed when he heard it, and then he smiled. "It makes sense if you're going to the city. Since you're the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance, which makes you the mayor of Grand City, it's logical if you want to go there. But there's something you need to be mindful of. The Seven Families publicly acknowledged Dan as the scion of Grand City, and everyone thought he would become the representative."If you go to Grand City, everyone will see you as trying to usurp power whether you want it or not. When that happens, the two of you will never have peace until one of you is dead…""Dead?" Harvey smirked. "What makes him think he has the right to call himself Grand City's scion? If he wants to become the owner of Grand City, he has to reclaim his status and become a representative and not
Meanwhile, Sol moved a chair over for Harvey and made a cup of tea for him. Harvey drank the flower tea that had just been freshly brewed. After a drink, he said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Geoffrey.""You saved me, so it's nothing strange for me to show you some appreciation," replied Geoffrey with a smile as he waved his hand. Then, Sol and Lune closed and covered all the windows and doors leading to the studies. Later, he said, "Harvey, I've prepared everything I need to. It's all in your hands now."In the next few days, he had already written down his own comprehension of his martial arts and those that he believed needed to be recorded, then passed them to Sol and Lune for safekeeping. Geoffrey was prepared for the consequences of his treatment."Alright. Since you have made the decision, then I won't delay this any further. But I suggest that we should make a video recording. That way, you will not only know what changes occur to your body but also what I did." Harvey sugge
"You heard it too, didn't you? I gave Victoria a call," Harvey said openly. "Victoria is the eldest princess of the Empire. She owed me one, so I asked her a favor. To her, something like this is easily within her powers."Yvonne was shocked. "You're actually familiar with the Empire's eldest princess?"Harvey smiled. "It's all in the past. Not to mention that this time, it involves the lives of many of your relatives. It's more convenient if the Empire is the one that makes the move."Yvonne gave it a thought and mumbled, "Sir, you probably need to repay her for a favor this huge, right? If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll have the Xaviers prepare them.""Well… There's no need to," Harvey said as he glanced at his phone screen with a message written in the Empire's script. "I guess this is all over once I find some time to treat her to a meal."When she heard it, Yvonne's expression instantly turned strange. But she was a smart woman; she knew there were things she s
"That's because the Empire produces most of the firearms we Second Caste used. Once they stop their services, we will lose access to those firearms in the short term. The First Case will use this chance to retaliate. If we ever reach that stage, the Second Caste is doomed. That's why we have no choice but to execute the Empire's orders."That's not the worst part. Unless we can completely go without the weapons produced by the Empire from within our army, otherwise… Harvey basically owns the Second Caste from now on. Crossing him is suicidal. In our current condition, the Second Caste doesn't have the resources to change the firearms from within our army. That's why, whether we like it or not, he basically owns us," said Bart, heaving a sigh. His expression darkened."Darn it… I told them I would rather cross the people from Country A than the people from Country H. Why didn't they believe me? They only regretted it after they had been thoroughly humiliated."When Zoe heard it, she
"Let's go!" Bart's expression darkened when he saw things had reached this stage. With a wave of his hand, he was going to leave with his underlings. He was filled with dissatisfaction.Today was supposed to be his day of glory. He was supposed to crush the Xaviers right under his boots. He was even prepared to have some fun with the women from the Xaviers. But he never expected one call from Harvey to be enough to turn his dreams into nothing. He was extremely dissatisfied.Zoe shuddered and was also about to leave. She wished Harvey could forgive her existence at this moment."Did I tell you that you can leave?" Harvey glanced at the group as they reached the entrance. "Don't forget, all of you have to give me an explanation that I'm happy with."Then, Harvey glanced at Zoe and said, "And you, Maiden. Don't forget your words so soon?"Zoe's expression darkened as she shuddered.Meanwhile, Bart immediately bent the knee on the floor with a loud thud. Then, he said in a bitter vo
Bart was completely stunned. "Sir, that's not what you said earlier! You gave explicit orders that…""What orders?" The voice coming from the other side was grim. "Do you understand what I'm telling you? Do as I tell you right now. Other than letting them know, I don't care whether you must cry or beg; you must gain the Xaviers' forgiveness. "Remember. If you fail, I'll kill all your family! This is not just my personal order but the collective will of the entire Second Caste. You must gain their forgiveness even if you were to sacrifice your own life!"After Mr. Garcia roared back at Bart, he angrily hung up. Obviously, there was pent-up anger in him, making him very furious and agitated. Unfortunately, it seemed that he could not resist it. That was why, even if he did not want to, all he could do was follow Mr. Garcia's orders.What happened?Bart, Zoe, and the others could not react as their eyes were fixed on the phone on the table. Their expressions were completely frozen.
"Tsk. Didn't you say you just gave a call to the Empire? That's our suzerain! If there's really someone on top of the pyramid speaking on your behalf, we all had to obey!" Bart said, his words were spiteful once more."Maybe you should give her a call again? Tell her that the Second Caste is very scared, waiting for her to come and punish us. Or maybe, your phone is out of credit? Do you need more money to pay for your credits?" Bart then pulled out a 20-dollar bill and threw it at Harvey. What Bart just did made all the people from Country I laugh even more arrogantly.Zoe could not be bothered to waste her time anymore. Instead, she extended her foot before Harvey, signaling Harvey to kneel and lick the sole of her heel quickly. Otherwise, someone from the Xaviers would have to die again if time was up.Buzz…As the mockery climaxed, Bart's phone started to vibrate. Everyone instantly looked at him. Bart was also stunned and glanced at the screen of his phone. Then, he gave Harve
"What? Don't tell me the Victoria you called just now was actually Princess Victoria from the Empire? I suppose you must have gotten what you wanted if you could talk to her directly. I wonder what kind of orders she gave us? Did she tell us to be on our knees right now or tomorrow?" A smirk appeared on Zoe's face the moment Harvey hung up. She looked at Harvey as if she was looking at a clown running a circus."Oh, right, I need to remind you. In one hour, we will kill another member of the Xavier family. If she only contacts us after a long time, then the Xaviers will all die," said Zoe as she folded her arms in front of her chest and slowly approached Harvey. Then, she leaned closer to Harvey and said, "And here I'm looking forward to falling on my knees and calling you Daddy. So please, you better give me this chance."At this time, Zoe acted so seductively. If it were not because everyone here knew that Zoe and Harvey were enemies, some might even think that Harvey and Zoe might
"Seems like you didn't change at all, Maiden. You still wouldn't give up until your final moments," Harvey stepped forward and glanced at Zoe. She might look stern on the outside, but she was already shaken inside."You know full well that if I could give you the money all this time, it would mean that I have the evidence. Maybe the Second Caste didn't care about the betrayal and continued to use you because you have some value. But the moment I show all this evidence on the internet, a sinner like you will make everyone remember everything."Perhaps the First Caste, who is at a disadvantage right now, could use this as an initiative and retaliate. That's why if I were you, I would immediately turn tail and leave, then think of a way to convince the Second Caste to stop instead of wasting your breath here."Zoe smiled coldly. "You can stop threatening me now, Harvey. I confessed everything to my higher-ups a long time ago. So what if you can reveal all the evidence you have? It mean
