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
“Is it the way of everlasting life?”“That’s right.”Kellan was shocked that Harvey would get it right, but continued explaining the situation anyway.“Rumors say that because all ancestors of the Hermit Families have been kings in the past, they’ve looked for the exact same thing.”“And after the fall of the dynasty, these things would naturally fall into the hands of their descendants.”“Legends say that the way to everlasting life will be revealed once the secrets of the six Hermit Families are gathered together…”“Though, that doesn’t even exist.”“According to what I know, their so-called secrets are just things related to their families’ heritage.”“To ancient families, secrets like these cannot be leaked.”“After realizing Faceless’ true goal, under Kairi’s lead, the six Hermit Families banded together to attack him.”“Faceless turned from a hero into a prisoner in just a single day. He lost many of his men as well.”“That said, right as he was being sent to jail, the
“So you’re saying Faceless was the one behind the plane incident where someone was trying to kill Kairi with a C4…”“That’s right. He was probably involved with the ambush Kairi got in before, too.”“The Skeleton Gang were the ones taking action, but Faceless is definitely controlling them.”Kellan nodded.Many things seemed completely unrelated to each other…But after analyzing the situation, that was simply not the case.“Looks like it was right for me to come here,” Harvey said.Evermore took action as soon as he arrived.Either Harvey got extremely lucky, or Evermore’s luck finally ran out.“Alright. Enough of this.”Harvey tapped on Kellan’s shoulder.“Where are you going next? Let me take you there.”Kellan sat up straight.“I’m headed to the Regency Building,” he replied.Half an hour later, the car arrived in front of the place.This was one of Golden Sands’ important landmarks.The first four floors were a large shopping mall, followed by an office building up
Under Ronnie’s playful gaze, Westin’s eyes twitched frantically.He pretended not to see Ronnie, but the latter still showed up in front of him anyway.“What? Aren’t you going to apologize to your boss after embarrassing all the rich playboys here?!”“Did you forget how to give a proper greeting too?!”“Pretty cocky, I’d say!”Ronnie approached Westin and tapped the latter’s face.Westin, who was always acting all high and mighty, didn’t seem angry at all even though he was being thoroughly humiliated.Instead, he quickly stood up and started bowing.“I’m sorry, Boss! I didn’t see you!”Westin forced a smile, but it was clear that he was utterly terrified of Ronnie.It seemed he didn’t want to see Ronnie at all.“Oh? Has the young master of Deepsky Corporation become so cocky now?”“Were you pretending that you didn’t see me?”“Are you blind? Or are you looking down on me?”Ronnie pinched Westin’s face with a disdainful expression.“Come on! Smile for me!”The usually a
