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
The storm had ended.Harvey York had no intention of making things harder for Sydney Lee and Luca Robbins.He only planned to suppress the two.Thomas Burton would have to turn the tables himself.Dariel Jackson gasped while watching from the side.He constantly warned himself not to go against Harvey unless he had a death wish.Then, Dariel told his men to kick Luca and the others out before respectfully ordering a few dishes and renewing Thomas’ membership card.Safe to say that he had already paid as much respect as he could to Harvey.Harvey tapped on Dariel’s shoulder without saying a word.A simple action was enough to send cold shivers down Dariel’s spine.After the meal, Harvey told Thomas to send him back to his villa. They also agreed to take a look at Harvey’s new shop together the next day.After heading inside, Harvey felt something odd after realizing that Mandy Zimmer was not home yet.Knowing her, she would not stay out late unless something big had happened
Harvey York did not know what to say after hearing Mandy Zimmer’s remarks.He knew that Silas John was just too good at pretending.Mandy could not tell from his disguise at this moment.Harvey would only agitate Mandy if he kept trying to explain the situation.“We’re about to get remarried,” replied Harvey after taking a deep breath.“It’s better to stay away from some other men…”“What? You’re scared that I might have feelings for Young Master John after seeing that he’s so outstanding?Mandy showed a charming faint smile.“You can run around with Kairi Patel all the time, but I can’t have my own close friend?Harvey bitterly chuckled. There was no way to explain the situation at this point.Mandy felt a little proud after seeing the look on Harvey’s face.“Alright. Don’t get jealous.She squinted while showing a smile.“I wouldn’t fall for another man who I just met.“Young Master John was just introducing a customer to me.“That said, you better cut your ties with y
“That’s good to know.”Harvey smiled.He wasn’t interested in the matters of the underworld.It wasn’t that he was scared, either.A small conflict like this was merely a game to him. He couldn’t care any less for it.“Of course, the most important thing is that you managed to de-escalate every single situation.”Kairi looked as if she had been relieved from her worries. She casually wrapped her arm around Harvey’s, smiling.“Compared to the matters of the Patel family, I think your shop is more important.”“After all, this is the reason we’re together.”“Oh, right. When you finally open up shop, I’d like to be your very first customer.”Harvey smiled.“Stop joking around.”“You of all people know what I’m capable of.”Kairi laughed.“I’m asking about my marriage,” she whispered.“I’m afraid only you can answer that for me.”Harvey’s eyes twitched frantically, and his entire face turned bright red.“Alright, enough! Let’s just look at the shop first.”Kairi smiled whe
Harvey’s head instantly felt numb. He didn’t dare reply.“Hmph!”Kairi scoffed after seeing the look on his face. She was utterly discontent, but then started to explain the situation.“This place has hundreds of years worth of history. In the past, it was considered to be the most popular place ever.”“When I was a child, I came here to have my fortune told as well.”“It’s a shame the current owner of the place, Reece Foley, wasn’t willing to follow in his family’s footsteps and pursued science instead.”“After his son died of an accident, he returned as a geomancy master since nobody else would take over the position.”“His geomancy arts are nothing compared to his ancestors, though. That was why he was declining.”“Those who came during the recent years were all old customers living down the street.”“They were here either because the place was close by, or to find out their auspicious days without burning a hole in their wallets.”“Because of this, the Fortune Hall soon d
Harvey bowed respectfully, but Reece didn’t even bat an eye at him. The man showed no emotion whatsoever.“I’m not asking for a different price. A hundred and fifty million, take it or leave it.”“Well? Do you want it or not?!”Harvey’s eyes turned cold after hearing Reece’s harsh tone. Reece was probably making it harder for him on purpose.Kairi’s beautiful eyes narrowed for a split second. Then, she smiled. “We’re businessmen, Master Foley. We uphold our promises.”“Honesty wins all, after all.”“But if I remember correctly, the price we agreed upon before was fifteen million.”“Why has it increased tenfold?”“Besides, I know you’ve invited an expert to estimate the price of this place.”“At most, it only costs 12.1 million dollars. It’d also be hard for you to sell it to the right person.”“I already gave you enough respect when I agreed with fifteen million.”“Aren’t you being a little unreasonable for raising the price after we’ve sealed the deal?”Naturally, Kairi
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
