“It’s not that. Doctors won’t be able to save them.“There’s not enough time.”Harvey York spoke before pulling out some paper and cinnabar to help Lilian Yates and the others.Mandy Zimmer froze.“What are you doing, Harvey?”“I’m drawing up a talisman to help them.”He never liked Lilian and the others, but since they were Mandy’s parents, he could not just watch as they were dying.“You’re not a doctor, Harvey! Don’t try anything stupid!“They probably just have food poisoning! What’s the point of drawing a few talismans?!”Mandy tried to stop Harvey.“Help me lift them to the couch if you really have the time.”Mandy was dialing a number on her phone.Harvey completely ignored Mandy when he dipped his finger into some cinnabar and smoothly drew on the paper.He burned the paper inside a bowl and added some water.He lifted Simon Zimmer with the bowl in hand.Simon was terrified.“What are you doing?! You’re insane!”He was afraid of what Harvey was going to pour in
Lilian Yates seemed cautious after hearing Harvey York’s words.“You asked about me outside?! How dare you?!”Mandy Zimmer froze.“You believe in that sort of thing, Mother?”Simon Zimmer immediately understood what Harvey meant before he spoke.“That’s right. We got Waylon Sacket, the well-renowned geomancy expert, to look at the place.“He rearranged some of the spots too.“Everything turned out nicely.“Mandy’s branch was in deep trouble, but it improved with Young Master John’s help.“We might even get filthy rich soon!”Simon showed a faint smile. He was naturally satisfied with Waylon’s help.Harvey frowned.“Where exactly in the house did you change?”“Why?Lilian was being cautious.“You and Mandy are already divorced!“The family has nothing to do with you now!“Stop trying to leech off of Mandy!“We gave a hundred and fifty thousand dollars of our savings for the geomancy expert!“That’s why we’ll get half of the ninth branch’s benefits from now on.”Simon
Naturally, Mandy Zimmer knew her parents well.A trustworthy person must have introduced the geomancy expert who cost a hundred and fifty thousand dollars.If not, judging from their stingy attitude, they would never hand out ten dollars, let alone that much money.Harvey York just shrugged.“Of course, I hope there aren’t any problems in the house too…“But you all saw what happened too. There are dire consequences for this.“If it weren’t for me, the entire family would’ve died by now.”“Bullsh*t!Lilian Yates was boiling with anger.“We only had food poisoning, yet you’re blaming this all on geomancy?!“You better show proof if you’re going to keep yapping about all this!“You’re just spouting nonsense!“If you didn’t help us in the first place, I would’ve ripped your mouth apart at this point!”Simon Zimmer sat up straight with a cold look.“Enough of this nonsense!“After Waylon was done with the house, we also got a few more geomancy experts to take a look.“Every
Harvey York froze.“What could go wrong with her?“She’s been staying at home.”“She’s taken away by the police! I don’t know the details, but I’m on my way to the station!“Where are you right now?” asked Mandy Zimmer.“I’m outside. Don’t worry! I’ll be there! We’ll talk after!”Harvey hung up the call before quickly leaving in a cab.Half an hour later, Harvey managed to get to the Zimmer family villa at the same time as Mandy.The two locked eyes before rushing inside.A few people sat on the couch inside the main hall.Simon Zimmer, Gabriel Lee, Avery Foster, and a few distant relatives were there, along with an extremely eye-catching person, Silas John.Harvey frowned after seeing Silas but did not mention anything at that moment.Mandy froze.“Why are you here, Young Master John?”Silas smiled faintly as he looked at Harvey before shifting his gaze toward Mandy.“I came after hearing about your mother, Mandy. Maybe I can help somehow.”Mandy lightly nodded. There
Harvey York could not be bothered with Gabriel Lee at the moment.“Was the woman sent to the hospital too?“Was she poisoned? Or does she have an underlying sickness in the first place?”Simon Zimmer showed a confused expression.“It must’ve been because of the food. Other than the woman, a few more customers also had stomach aches.“The Food and Drug Administration is investigating the goods right now.“You’ve been in Golden Sands for a while, Gabriel. Can you do anything about this? You have a good relationship with the government, don’t you?“Even if we can’t make everything fine for Mother, we can at least bail her, right?“After all, there are all sorts of people there. The condition there is deplorable as well. Mother’s been fed with a silver spoon her entire life. She can’t handle a single second behind bars.”Naturally, Mandy Zimmer was still worried about her own mother.Simon gritted his teeth after hearing those words.“I warned her that she shouldn’t have worked
Simon Zimmer looked admirably toward Silas John.“Thank you so much, Silas!“I didn’t think you’d still help us after what happened!“We owe you a huge favor for this!”“You’re too kind, Uncle! We’re family, after all!“Who else am I going to help if not family?Silas showed a smile as if he was on the same side.“Don’t worry about Aunty!“I’ll get my brother to deal with this soon! Even Azrael will pay him his respect, I’m sure!”Gabriel Lee slammed the table.“That’s right! That’s right!“Young Master John’s eldest brother is none other than Blaine John!“He’s pretty discreet, but his influence in Golden Sands is immense!“The Bolton family will definitely cooperate with him!Then, Gabriel turned to Silas.“The John family’s word is a lot better than ours!“We’re saved!”Simon jumped before firmly gripping Silas’ hand.“We’ll have to rely on you this time, Silas!”Mandy hesitated for a moment.“Thank you, Young Master John.“The family will thank you if my mother
Simon Zimmer showed a righteous look on his face.It was a critical situation in his eyes.Lilian Yates would have to stay behind bars for the rest of her life if the situation was not handled properly.It was already bad enough that Harvey York would not help, yet he still dared to go against someone like Silas John.‘He wants to die or something!’“Apologize?Harvey calmly glanced at Silas.“Can he even accept my apology?”“What does that even mean?Avery Foster crossed her arms while scoffing at Harvey.“You’re still causing trouble even now?”Mandy hesitated for a moment.“Maybe you should look for K…”Gabriel chuckled coldly before Mandy could even finish her words.“I’m not your actual brother, Mandy, but I should at least deal with the situation for your sake!“You can’t keep helping Harvey like this!“Father and Mother told me already!“Harvey’s been doing well in Golden Sands because he’s Kairi Patel’s kept man!“He’d do something this shameful just for his o
“Your mother has a bad temper, but she’s not at all a bad person!“We can’t keep making her stay in jail!“She can’t handle it!“We have to save her no matter how much money we give!”“Don’t worry, Father. I’m sure we’ll think of another way!” reassured Mandy Zimmer.Gabriel Lee gritted his teeth.“Let’s see what Young Master John can do, Father!“If he can’t bail Mother out, we’ll think of another way!“If that doesn’t work, we’ll go to court!“As long as this isn’t Mother’s responsibility to handle, there’s a chance!”That said, Gabriel was a little scared when he said those words.After all, the victims were from the Bolton family!If Lilian Yates did hurt Azrael Bolton’s mother by selling counterfeit products, he would chase Lilian to the ends of the earth.He would not stop until Lilian was six feet under.“I’ll visit the Bolton family instead.”Harvey was planning to ask for Oskar’s help if he could not handle the situation.As long as the woman could be saved.G
The young man, who Linus addressed as Mr. Parker, ignored Ray and immediately set his eyes on Sia. For someone like him who came out of the mountains, fashionable young women from the mountains were women he rarely had a chance to interact with.And then, he glanced at Harvey. He did not bother hiding the disdain in his eyes. It was as if a fly had landed on his delicious cake, and he could not help but feel disgusted. When the image crossed his mind, he said, "Mr. Linus, I don't like people who interfere with our business.""I understand," Linus said coldly. "Let me deal with it."Then, Linus waved his hand, and dozens of mutants from Country A cracked their necks as they moved forward."You're thinking of dealing with who?" A calm voice came from in front of Linus. Then, he saw Harvey was already standing up, as he had already finished helping Sia regulate the energy inside of her. Then, he grabbed the ashtray nearby and hurled it."Ah!" The ashtray landed right on Linus's head,
Sia was Yvonne's younger cousin, and the two of them had met once. She even called Harvey brother-in-law. However, he did not expect the two of them to meet again in these circumstances.Harvey quickly pushed open the car door, walked out, and immediately checked Sia's pulse and asked, "Sia, what's going on here?"Sia instinctively wanted to struggle when a man touched her. However, when she saw Harvey's face clearly, she calmed down and stopped being on her guard."Why are you here?""Stop talking. Your condition right now is quite unusual. Let me give you a hand," said Harvey with a frown. While he could tell that Sia had been drugged, he did not realize it would be so powerful. The person who drugged Sia also did not think about the consequences and used about ten times more than the standard dosage.Most importantly, this was not some typical poison. It was a kind of insect poison that could awaken one's primal desire. And this situation was quite difficult to deal with. With
One moment later, Janus approached Emery with a dark expression. Meanwhile, Emery was brewing tea.Emery had just added some tea to the teapot and relaxedly filtered the first pot of water. Then, he took out his antique cup and poured himself a cup of tea.Only once he was almost done did Emery glance at Janus. "What happened?"Janus had a strange expression before he spoke sternly: "Boss, Ms. Isis of Sherril Corp had just been humiliated. Drake, who had just returned from the Northern Land, had also been wasted. They had even knelt and vowed not to harass Ms. Journi again…Emery's hand held his teacup still as he listened. A glint of strange light illuminated his eyes before he calmly said, "Don't tell me Harvey did this."Janus nodded. "I really can't figure it out until today. Just where did Harvey come from? He didn't care who he offended at all. Here, he had just killed Hector and foiled the Island Nation's plans, and the next he did was hurt Drake and humiliate Country A."
Isis took a deep breath as she gritted her teeth, "If you dare hurt Drake, both the Wards of the Northern Land and the Sherril Corp won't show you any mercy!""Oh? Then, I really want to see how you plan not to show me mercy.After he said that, Harvey placed the revolver he held on Drake's shoulder and pulled it.Bang!There was a huge sound, and Drake trembled. His shoulder had been shot, and blood instantly started to flow. If every shout before this was simply trying to scare him, then this shot was clean enough to the point of scaring them. All of them felt Harvey was a murderer.At this point, they finally understood that Harvey was not a risk-taker. He was even crazier than Drake.There was only silence at the scene. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, as everyone was still stunned. They were truly stunned by how fast Harvey did it, and the entire club's atmosphere instantly plummeted. Many were shaking and trembling.While they believed they were more importa
Isis's expression instantly darkened. Harvey's earlier decisiveness had already made her understand that Harvey would pull the trigger."Bend the knee, apologize, and make your vow," Harvey ordered calmly. "I'm growing impatient. Three, two, one…"Without giving Drake a chance to speak, Harvey pulled the trigger again.Clack!The fourth time. It was still a dry fire.Isis's mind was completely blank, and she was blinded momentarily. While she always looked like someone high-and-mighty, she felt like she was nothing in front of everything Harvey had been doing. She thought that she could easily lose her life.Drake was so scared that he was shuddering.While it was still a dry fire, the next time he pulled the trigger, there was a 50% chance of it being a bullet. No matter who Harvey pointed the gun at, that person would have a 50% chance of going to hell."My, they always said that those who are kind live short lives while those who are problematic live a very long life. I didn
"You're threatening me?" Harvey patted Drake's cheek. "I know you must be very haughty, but the problem is that you're right in my hands tonight. Do you think threatening me like that is going to help you? Do you actually think I wouldn't dare to pull that trigger after you threatened me?"I've killed people like you for a dime a dozen. Nothing happened to me anyway. Why am I still standing perfectly fine here? At the root of it, it's because people like you are useless!"Harvey continued in high spirits, "Hey, Drake. Do you want to make a bet? Let's bet that no matter how headstrong you are, you're going to kneel on the ground and beg me to spare your life."Drake coldly replied, "And what's the wager? Your life?"Harvey blurted out a laugh. "No, you're not nearly valuable enough to make me wager my life. But, if you don't beg me until the very end, I can agree to any of your conditions.""Fine. At the time, I'll make you kill yourself!" Drake said as he gritted his teeth. "We'll
"You're that lucky?" Harvey said, his shock palpable on his face. "Alright, one more time."This time, Drake raised his left hand to block the gun's muzzle using all his strength. He believed that if this continued, even if he would not die from a bullet, he would die from the fear alone. "You're scared?" Harvey looked at Drake curiously. "Aren't you the Madman? Aren't you the third in Wolsing out of all the Young Masters? Why are you so afraid of dying? You're so arrogant while harassing my girlfriend. Why are you such a piece of trash now, huh?" Harvey patted Drake's face disdainfully.In that instant, there was only silence. No one expected this man who called himself Journi's boyfriend to be so big-headed. Not only did he dare to threaten Drake, he really wanted to kill Drake. Was he not afraid the Wards of the Northern Land would show him no mercy?But of course, to someone like Journi, while she was surprised, she was mainly touched. She was certain someone like Harvey would
And then, Harvey waved his left hand. The moment when Drake was stunned, the revolver then dropped into Harvey's hand.Once Harvey had obtained the revolver, he spun the cylinder, unlocked the safety, and pointed the revolver around. All the people who were so smug earlier started to scream and tried to find places to hide after being shocked.Harvey's play with the revolver made it obvious that he would discharge it accidentally.Even Isis, who had always been so high-and-mighty, had her expression darkened for a while and hid behind a marble column subconsciously. He who has nothing to lose has nothing to fear. Harvey looked like he had nothing to lose at all.That was why the foreigners all believed that if they were killed by Harvey, even if Harvey was willing to die for his mistake, it was still something they could not accept. After forcing the group away, Harvey then pointed the revolver at Drake's head.Drake's eyes turned cold. "Who are you, kid? Do you think this is som
In the end, Journi took a deep breath and buried all her helplessness and fury deeper into her heart. Then, she slowly said, "You must be joking, Ms. Isis. You are the daughter of the Sherril Corp from Country A. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn't dare to cross you. However, I simply wish for you to show some mercy…"To thank you, I'm willing to give you some of the assets in Country A I owe you for free as my gift. I believe you won't make it difficult for me, right?"Journi thought she had already lowered herself to the point that she was practically begging Isis to show her mercy. At this point, she even felt that she was giving up. She even forgot that she had Harvey pretend to be her boyfriend.Harvey was pleased, however. Instead of using an excuse like having a boyfriend, she was willing to accept other conditions in exchange for her freedom. This was a sign that she was maturing."Tsk… Assets from Country A? The few mansions you bought on the West Coast?" Isis lit a cigare
