“Who in Hell is that fatty over there?! He’s dressed like a damn country bumpkin, and he’s even staring all over us!”“He must be some sort of pervert! Look! He’s staring at my legs now!”“Ugh! I can’t believe this! I forgot my stockings today! He saw every part of my legs! How disgusting!”“I know, right?! People like that are just heinous! Doesn’t he know that we’re innocent and pure women here?!”“How are we supposed to get married after this?!”“Disgusting!”“Pervert!”“A man like him is trying to have a piece of good meat?”“Dream on!”The women were gossiping up a storm.Sydney Lee, who was on her phone, raised her head at this moment.A playful smile was showing on her face the moment she saw Thomas Burton.“I was wondering who it was! It’s Young Master Burton himself!”Sydney obviously remembered who Thomas was. After all, the two had been together for quite a while.After being reminded of the past, Sydney felt like vomiting.Her beautiful face was filled with u
After being ridiculed by his ex-girlfriend and her group of friends, Thomas Burton could not hold his feelings back any longer despite his good nature.“Don’t you dare cross the line, Sydney Lee!” exclaimed Thomas while showing a cold glare.“You know just how well I used to treat you! I don’t care how you mock me…“But if you keep taking advantage of other people, then don’t blame me for what happens next…”“What did you say?!Sydney showed a disdainful glare.“You’re just useless trash who fell off! Do you think you’re still the Garbage King or something?!“You can’t tolerate anything! Are you a man or what?!”“Huh?!”Thomas did not know how to refute after being relentlessly ridiculed.Harvey tapped on Thomas’ shoulder with a smiley face.“Alright. Don’t run your mouth to despicable people like those. Let’s head inside.”“What did you say?!“You called us despicable?!“Let me tell you something! We’re all with rich and wealthy people here!Sydney disdainfully glared a
Thomas Burton froze before showing a horrible look on his face.He just remembered that the membership card has an annual renewal fee of thousands of dollars.After his assets were completely frozen, he had no money to pay the membership fees.The beautiful women laughed their heads off after hearing the waitress’ words.“It’s expired?”“How did you end up like this, Young Master Burton?”“How dare you even come here to eat?”“You can’t even get through the door, you fatty!”“You’re just a broke and bankrupt fatty! Why are you still pretending to be some rich boss?! Start begging for food outside already! You’re shameless!”Thomas’ eyes kept twitching as he held his fist. He was downright furious, yet he felt utterly miserable.A man who fell out of power is inferior to the common folk.He finally experienced such a thing.He completely ignored Sydney Lee and the others when he apologetically looked at Harvey York.“I’m sorry, Sir York! I’m really sorry!“I wanted to trea
Sydney Lee would not just give up on her pride at this moment.“You’re here to clean dishes, aren’t you?!” she exclaimed while gritting her teeth.Dariel Jackson was about to slap her in the face when Harvey York stopped him.“Are you insane or something, Ms. Lee?” replied Harvey calmly while squinting at her.“You’re the insane one! Your entire family’s insane like you!” exclaimed Sydney.“If I guess correctly, you’ve been burping for no reason for the longest time. Your mouth’s been extremely sore as well.“You can even smell your own breath when you speak.“That’s why you like to eat a lot of bubblegum to hide that scent.”Sydney froze after hearing those words.“How did you know that?”“I’m not a doctor, but I know some martial arts,” replied Harvey.“Eastern martial arts have medical skills included in them. That’s why I know a little about that.“I can tell that you’ve been losing sleep too. Your stomach will hurt as soon as you drink something cold.Harvey showed a
Dariel Jackson arranged a table for Harvey York and Thomas Burton to sit at.To not let Thomas feel pressured, Harvey declined before getting inside a box and sitting in front of the window.At the same time, he ordered a set meal and opened a bottle of red wine before he started eating.“I think we should just leave here, Sir York…Thomas hesitated when he grabbed his utensils.“It’s not that I don’t believe your abilities! I just don’t think there’s a need to go against so many people for someone like me!”Sydney Lee has suffered quite a bit, giving Thomas the relief he desperately needed…But Thomas’ head started to throb when he thought of the man behind her, Luca Robbins.He simply could not go against a man like that at all.“What are you saying?Harvey sat up straight before showing discontent.“You’re my brother, my dear friend.“If people go against you, they go against me.“If they don’t respect you, then they don’t respect me either!“I’m just giving you your p
Harvey York did not even bat an eye when the crowd was screaming their lungs out.He casually sipped his glass of wine without even a care in the world.Thomas Burton quickly stood up with a smile, thinking that Harvey had gotten scared.“It’s just a misunderstanding, Young Master Robbins!”“Shut the f*ck up!Luca Robbins immediately slapped Thomas in the face with a fearless expression.“Who do you think you are?!“What right do you have even to say that?!Then, Luca glanced at Harvey with a cold glare.“Don’t worry. I’m a generous man. I normally wouldn’t lay my hands on you myself, nor would I let my subordinates do the dirty work.“For someone like me, this is just savage!“We’d seem too incompetent for doing something like this!“That said, I’ll get your entire family to break every single one of your limbs for me!“After that, I’ll make them pay the price!“You’d better not have a beautiful wife, or I’ll be really happy!”Luca laughed as loud and arrogantly as he w
Sydney Lee raised her nose at Harvey York before coldly chuckling.“You’re just like Thomas Burton, a bunch of show-offs without limits!”Luca Robbins chuckled.“If you really can stop me from working with the Golden Estate, I’ll kneel and start calling you ‘Daddy’!”The beautiful women around were quietly chuckling, wanting to pounce right into Luca’s arms.Their gazes toward Harvey were filled with disdain and disgust.Naturally, they thought that Harvey was just putting up a front at this point.Harvey calmly glanced at Luca.“Do you think you have the right to call me that?“You’re not even worthy.”“You…”Luca was boiling with anger. Before he was about to say something, Sydney’s phone immediately rang.She took a glance before instinctively picking up the call.Soon, her body started trembling while her face was ashen.Luca, who was getting ready to lash out, frowned when he saw Sydney’s expression.“What? What’s going on?”Sydney was miserable.“The higher-ups o
Luca Robbins was completely sluggish.Harvey York stood up and slowly strode toward him before patting him on his face.“Where did all that arrogance go, Young Master Robbins?“You’re supposed to be impressive.“I took you down just now. Are you happy now?”Sydney Lee and the others were completely stunned. They did not expect that Harvey would be bold enough to ridicule Luca.They did not think that Luca would not even so much as let out a single sound.Sydney was anxious.“Young Master Robbins! He’s completely disrespecting you! You need to…”Slap!Luca slapped Sydney to the ground while gritting his teeth.“Who asked you?!“Who are you even?!“How dare you talk to me like this?!“How dare you tell me to go against Sir York?!“Do you want to die or something?!”Then, he kicked Sydney while she was still down on the ground.In his eyes, the woman before him made him go against Harvey.If he were even a little careless, he would die a horrible death!‘Sir York?’Syd
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
