“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
Faceless had a powerful high status within Evermore. He was the head of Golden Sands’ branch in the past.These people were his trusted subordinates—all of them were outstanding professionals within the organization.And yet, they couldn’t even take a single hit against Harvey.Harvey couldn’t care less about what Kellan was thinking, and casually dealt with the latter’s injuries before standing up.“Right. You’ll heal within three days. Find yourself a doctor to prescribe you some medicine whenever you’re free.”Kellan finally came to his senses.“I’ll cut to the chase, Sir York,” he said after stumbling off the ground.“From now on, just call me if you need anything at all.”“You’re too kind. I just did what I had to do. I’m responsible for what happened too, since I asked to meet you here,” Harvey replied.“Also, get your men here to clean this up.”“Are you coming with me? Or are you staying here?”“I-I’m coming!”Kellan took a look around before shivering instinctively
