“This isn’t about that. You’re going to pay for my losses,” Harvey said calmly as he studied Silas’s arrogant expression.Silas laughed coldly.“I’m paying for your losses, you say? Are you out of your mind?”Alma quickly took out her phone.“You’re trying to cause us trouble, aren’t you?”“Fine! I’ll get the cops here to deal with this!”“We’ll see how you’ll get out of the situation after that!”“After all, blackmail is a big crime!”Alma excitedly dialed the three numbers. It would be so cathartic to send the live-in son-in-law straight to jail!“Hurry up already,” Harvey urged.“You should be giving your way to pedestrians on pedestrian crossings. This is the law.”“Also, you’ll have to take responsibility for my losses if you run into me. This is also the law.”“The police will surely give you a lesson about this once they arrive.”Harvey’s calm words were filled with a dominant aura. Silas’s pupils shrunk and he suddenly found it hard to breathe, as if he was having
“I’m so sorry, Young Master John. We’ve carried out a full investigation of the situation this time. You’ll have to take full responsibility for this.”Silas’s daydreaming was interrupted when a bald inspector looked at the footage they acquired and said that to him.“According to traffic laws, you should be the one paying for Mr. York’s losses.”The smile on Silas’s face froze instantly. He didn’t expect something like this to happen.He wanted to say that Harvey was working with the police, but he knew that the cops were sent here randomly. Nothing here could prove what Silas was thinking.Him spouting random nonsense would only dig him into a deeper hole.Realizing that, his face turned cold.He didn’t think that squashing a live-in son-in-law would be this hard.“What the hell are you thinking?!”“This isn’t our fault at all!”Alma was stomping the ground furiously, screeching like a petulant child.“He’s just a useless piece of crap! He was trying to blackmail us, and n
“The market value of this in Hong Kong and Las Vegas is three hundred million dollars.”“I bought this from Archa Corporation for the same price.”“The receipt’s right here.”Harvey opened the bag, pouring the shattered porcelain to the ground before showing the receipt inside.“I was supposed to give this to my wife.”“And then what happened?”“You destroyed it!”“Do you think fifteen thousand dollars is enough to fix this?”“Are you taking advantage of me?”“Of course, you can call anyone to confirm this if you don’t believe me!”‘Three hundred million?!’The siblings froze, and their faces turned completely purple.The inspectors were speechless as well, thinking that Harvey was simply ruthless.‘How are we supposed to fix this?’Harvey did get on the pedestrian crossing, and was supposed to be let through. This was the law.He had a receipt for his invaluable porcelain as well.Simply put, all the evidence Harvey had was no less than perfect.Even if he was suspect
“Besides, why are you talking to me about respect now?” Harvey pressed.“Even if I intentionally broke the porcelain here, you’ll still have to take responsibility.”“If Silas didn’t cause trouble the day before, this wouldn’t have happened!”“If you want to play, then at least make sure you’re capable enough!”“If you lose, then admit your own defeats!”Harvey calmly took a few steps forward, as unperturbed as always.“Nonsense!” Rylee screeched.“Silas is a personable man! He’s not the man who you say he is!”Silas’s face was cold. There were some things that he just couldn’t say out loud.“This is slander, Harvey! Do you even have proof?”Alma looked at Harvey with an odd look.She thought Samson and the others were still doing their jobs. She was ready to see the bright look on Harvey’s face dissipate…But she didn’t think that all they had done was to no avail….Since Harvey was perfectly fine, it was clear Samson and Cyrus suffered quite a huge loss.“You know full
After stepping away from the company’s building entrance, Harvey got inside his Audi A8 and told Thomas to drive.Thomas wanted to say something, but he ended up stopping himself.Harvey had already shown a demonstration of his power. At this point, Thomas already knew that Harvey wasn’t just a live-in son-in-law.“Where are we going, Sir York?” Thomas asked instinctively after starting the car.“We have a meeting with Kellan at the Indigo Mountain, right?”“There’s something I need to tell him.”“If he can get all of the money back, I won’t even take a single dollar.”“He probably didn’t have this much money even after taking protection fees for the past decade.”“He’ll definitely put all his back into this.”Harvey leaned on the chair before taking a sip of tea.He understood Silas too well.With that attitude, that man would never pay the money back.Besides, a member of the Patel family was with him. He had no choice but to fight for his pride.The best way to draw out
“A Bioweapon?”Kellan gasped. He naturally knew what the thing was.“I didn’t think you people have ties with the Americans! Why would you get something that heinous here?”“Do you think I’ll just fold after seeing that?”“Even if you rip me to shreds and burn me up, I’ll never betray the head!”“Kill me already!”“If not, I’ll tear you b*stards apart!”“Interesting. I admire your tenacity.”The woman put away her makeup box before picking up the needle and tapping on it a few times.“Still, that tenacity is nothing to us.”“You’re an experienced man. You know that once we inject this into you, you’ll beg for mercy no matter how strong of a man you are!”“When that happens, you’ll do whatever we tell you to!”Kellan’s expression changed instantly. Sweat dripped down his face.After living in the underworld for so long, he knew exactly what the needle had in store.The American Bioweapon was combined with the Frontier Possession Technique.Once the fluid was injected, all
The woman smiled.“People like you can never imagine what Mr. Faceless has in store.”“You want to go against someone like him? How naive can you get?”“You should just give up now. Struggling does you no good, anyway.”“You’ll have people joining you soon too. Kairi and the others will kneel.”The woman crouched down, ready to inject Kellan with the needle.“Try me!”Kellan’s expression changed. He grabbed a piece of glass on the ground and swung it toward his neck.He’d rather die than become one of these people’s slaves.Bam!The woman quickly kicked the glass out of Kellan’s hand.She stepped on his chest, ready to inject the needle again.“Sigh…”A sigh could be heard.Harvey walked out with his arms crossed.This had nothing to do with him, but he had no choice but to take action after hearing that Kairi and Evermore would probably get involved in the situation.After all, this was one of the reasons why he showed up in Golden Sands.The woman and her companions
“The art of killing is an odd one, but this is just child’s play to me.”Harvey was as calm as ever.“I can deal with this in just three minutes.”The woman squinted, then threw Harvey a judgemental gaze.“So you want us to let you and Kellan go in return for doing us the favor, right?” she said, grinning.Harvey casually nodded.He didn’t want to fight if he could avoid it. After all, it’d be bad if he killed the people who were involved with Evermore.How was he supposed to get information out of those people then?“It’s quite an attractive deal, but I’m afraid I have to decline.”The woman smiled calmly.“That said, I’ll make your death a quick one since you’re being this nice.”Harvey narrowed his eyes. He thought the woman would agree to the deal instantly.Even if she had a deep grudge against Kellan, it’d be nothing compared to her own life.But since she declined so decisively, then she was clearly not forced into the situation.She had willingly brought this up
"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
"You…" Vaida slightly frowned at Coco.Harvey smiled instead. "Vaida, now that things have reached this juncture, we can't end this right here. That way, we'll simply allow them to make their moves. Maybe they'll even think we've chosen to withdraw. That's why my principle has always been to stay put or make a bombastic move. If we don't completely crush their pride this time, they might even think they have some skills."Harvey had already decided that things had gone out of hand, and then he would have to make this end right here and now. This was called fixing the situation in one go and not wasting time."You're still going to act tough at this critical point, pretty boy?" Coco laughed angrily when she saw that Harvey still did not take her seriously. "I'm telling you this right now. I will get my revenge no matter the cost, even if my older brother will punish me because of what will happen. I will make you understand that you can't simply humiliate the Parkers and Parkerville!
After Coco gave out her order, all the elites beside her took out their Rainstorm Needles and immediately pounced at Harvey's location. While these weapons were quite rare outside, they were common in Grand City.Harvey frowned slightly. He was not worried about his own safety, but he did not want Alexei and Vaida to be caught in the crossfire. He immediately glanced at Alexei and said, "Take care of Vaida, and don't come close."And then, Harvey charged into the crowd immediately.He first grabbed an elite by the neck, picked him up like a sandbag, and then brutally hurled him away.Bang!After that loud noise, around seven elites had to retreat as they started coughing blood. As for the Rainstorm Needles in their hands, Harvey had all crushed them under his foot before they could even use it. In less than ten seconds, the so-called elites had all fallen to the ground.In short, the bodyguards that circled Coco meant nothing to Harvey. After finishing with them, Harvey glared at
"Hereward Parker! Get your arse here and kill him! Kill him quickly!" Coco was overwhelmed with fury at this moment. The air of superiority around her was gone, her expression replaced by feral rage. Then, she pointed at Harvey as she gritted her teeth, her voice sounding demonlike.Whoosh!The moment she finished saying that, a figure jumped in from outside the window of the Supreme Chamber. He was so quick that he appeared right before Harvey in the blink of an eye. He did not waste any time and simply raised his hand, punching his fist toward Harvey's face.Unceasing Gate Style, Unshackled Fist.While the attack looked like it had no power behind it, there was an indescribable sharpness behind that attack.When Alexei saw what happened, his expression changed. "Hereward? That martial arts fanatic? Be careful, big bro! You shouldn't underestimate his power!"Tina smirked when she heard what Alexei said. "Since you know who Hereward is, then you should know how powerful he is. H
Harvey didn't let Coco get off scot-free. Instead, he walked up to her with a blank expression and slapped her directly across the face.Slap!Coco let out a painful cry; she immediately flew backward, slamming into a wall opposite the door with a loud bang.Harvey then took out a wet paper towel to wipe his fingers and said calmly, "Why don't you guess if I'm bold enough to kill you?"Coco held her face as she stumbled to her feet, staring at Harvey with wide eyes. The pain on her face aside, she was filled with disbelief and indescribable fury. She couldn't believe there was someone in Grand City not afraid to move against her and even dared to assault her directly.There was no difference between this and having a death wish!She was the princess of Parkerville! In her own family and among the Seven Families of Grand City, she was already standing at the top of the hierarchy. How could Harvey stand up to her? What leverage did he have against her?"What?!"Tina and the othe
"I'm warning you! You better grovel at her feet right now and slap yourself a hundred times so that this is over! Otherwise, you're going to die a horrible death!" Tina yelled as she bared her teeth at Harvey, as if wanting to shred him into pieces.It was clear that to Tina, since she couldn't do anything to Vaida, she could at least take it out on Harvey, right? She was very familiar with the heirs of the powerful families within Grand City. Harvey was very unfamiliar to her and didn't look like someone important at all.Even Coco was sizing Harvey up from head to toe. "You should know your place," she said coldly. "There's a hierarchy in this world, and there are rules you shouldn't touch. There are also people you shouldn't offend so easily. In other words, when you want to step in for someone else, you should also see just how much strength you have. Otherwise, you might lose your head before you can even do anything."Both sides had completely turned against each other tod
Despite his fear, Alexei finally stood up and yelled at Coco and her entourage. "Senior Vaida is fine! You can't do whatever you want! Do you really think you can act as you please with the Belladonna Cult?!"Harvey shot him a surprised glance. He wasn't expecting Alexei to be courageous enough to speak out like that. Vaida remained silent; she only looked at Coco coldly, as if wanting to see what Coco was going to do next."Who do you think you are, Alexei? Since when do you have any power to decide whether Vaida is sick? Only the doctors are qualified to do that," Coco sneered. "And only the doctors who work for the Parker family, at that. Now, take Vaida to the mental health institution. Stop wasting our time!" Coco presented herself assertively, as if she was going to use this excuse to admit Vaida into the institution.What of the consequences?With Parkerville's influence in Grand City currently, they didn't have to care about the consequences. Before Coco's men could
