“Don’t worry, Dad.”“I’ll pay the damages.”Harvey grabbed the wooden fish, then handed his Black Card to Esther.“1.5 million. Give me the receipt.”Simon’s face darkened instantly. “Where did you get the money from? Did you steal it from Mandy?”Gabriel immediately got jealous when he heard that. “Right! You must’ve stolen the money!” he yelled. “I’m warning you, Harvey! I’ll sue you if you spend Mandy’s money like this!”“I want you to suffer!”Simon glared fiercely, as if he was looking at a loser.“You think Mandy would have that much money right now?” Harvey retorted. Gabriel and Simon froze, then came back to their senses. All of Mandy’s money was basically used for the Zimmer Enterprise at this point.If she really had the money for Harvey, the Zimmer Enterprise and the ninth branch wouldn’t be in so much trouble.“Azrael lent me the money.”Harvey casually found someone else to blame. Then, he looked at Esther.“Can you hurry up? I’m running out of time.”Si
“You’re embarrassing!” Simon screamed. “From now on, don’t you dare step in the family’s front door from now on!”“If you do, I’ll kick you out like a stray dog!”Facing the crowd’s disdainful gazes, Simon was boiling with anger.He wouldn’t dare lash out at Esther, so he had no choice but to vent all his anger on Harvey.“Ignore this dirtbag, Father,” Gabriel said.“Since he’s so rich that he can make his own decisions, we’ll let him take responsibility.”“Come on, we shouldn’t be near this idiot. People will think that we’re actually with him.”Gabriel hated Harvey to the bone. Because of Harvey, he and his wife were almost dead yesterday.Esther sized up Harvey. After confirming that Harvey wasn’t capable of anything, she chuckled coldly.“We don’t try to please the crowd here.”“If you’re going to be a clown, go outside.”Harvey smiled calmly before putting the shards on the ground. Then, he squeezed the wooden fish lightly.Crack!A rock the size of a thumb was foun
Harvey squinted at the rock in his hand, ignoring everyone in the process.Using his geomancy, he noticed the rock was shining slightly.There was something covering the rock on the outside, making it seem that there was treasure hidden inside.Harvey smiled at Esther, then asked, “Can you lend me some tools?”Esther froze, then scoffed.“Even if there’s a small gem inside…”“It’d be crazy for it to be even a hundred and fifty thousand dollars!”“You really think there’d be insane treasure inside?”“You want to earn money in the geomancy market? Are you out of your mind?”Despite saying all that, Esther waved her hand and had someone give Harvey some tools. She wanted to humiliate Harvey even more.“Is that so?”“You must be quite experienced, Ms. John.”“That said, there are no absolutes in this world.”“There are a lot of things beyond your comprehension.”Under everyone’s gaze, Harvey grabbed some tools and slowly chipped away the sand on the rock. Soon, a half-transpa
Harvey handled the gem, ignoring the crowd.Esther frowned; she didn’t believe what Kian said at all.‘An Augustea hiding in a random statue?’‘From Caesar Augustus himself?’‘What a joke!’‘There’s no way everyone here could miss out on the gem!’Harvey’s movements were slower and steadier. Nobody dared to say a single word. Pin-drop silence filled the hall. They wanted Harvey to show the true form of the gem, but they were also afraid of him breaking it. It’d be unforgivable if that happened.Soon, everyone could see the whole gem.It was smooth, plump, and translucent. Even an ordinary person could tell that there was a slight glimmer on the gem’s surface.Those who can use geomancy arts could tell it was shining with a bright aura. Kian’s eyes lit up instantly.“It really is Caesar’s Augustea!”“I only saw the same thing from before, when I was in India’s royal temple.”“I didn’t think I’d see it again!”“Legends say that there are only nine of these in the entire
Harvey York smiled faintly.“Go ahead.”Compared to the others, Harvey was perfectly calm.He had seen too many things like the Augustea. He was already desensitized by the sight at this point.That said, he was still interested in the so-called legend of eternal life.The gem would be good bait.Kian Foster respectfully took the Augustea from Harvey’s hand before pulling out his magnifying glass to inspect it.At the same time, he brought out a few precision instruments to appraise the gem.Harvey was completely speechless. He did not expect Kian would have something that could detect isotopes in a gemstone.Those instruments would usually be found inside a laboratory.After a long while, Kian started to get ecstatic.“That’s right! The isotopes here are the same as the one with India’s royal family!“This is one of the nine pieces of Caesar’s Augustea!“It’s an honor!“It’s a great honor!“I never thought I’d see something like this in my lifetime!”Simon Zimmer and t
After stepping out of the Empire Hall, Simon Zimmer excitedly extended his hand.“Harvey! Give me the Augustea!”He was exhilarated by the thought of the priceless gem.He already decided to give this to the Jean family!That way, he would have a chance to make a comeback and become the head of the family!This was God’s gift! He was not planning to let this chance slip by!He believed he would be better suited to rise to power than his daughter.Simon showed a righteous expression after thinking about his life filled with debauchery.Gabriel Lee was jealous after seeing the sight in front of him.“The gem belongs to Harvey, Father! It’s unfair to take it from him!”“What do you mean by that?Simon was not planning to speak reason after thinking about his beautiful future.“I picked the statue myself!“I was planning to haggle for it!“And then this b*stard showed up!“How dare he?“Clearly, the statue belongs to me!Then, Simon glared at Harvey York.“Enough of this!
Simon Zimmer was irritable at this moment.This was his only chance to become the head of the Jean family! This was his dream opportunity!‘How dare this b*stard try to stop me like this?!‘Does he want to die or something?!‘He should be handing me the gem right now!’Harvey York calmly smiled.“I’m sorry, but I need this for something else.“I can’t just hand this to you.”Harvey wanted to lure Evermore with the gem. He could not just give it away that easily.More importantly, with Simon’s capabilities, he would not be able to keep it safe.He could lose his life if he were not careful.Harvey would never hand the gem over because of this.“What did you say, you b*stard?!Simon was utterly infuriated after hearing Harvey’s words.“I painstakingly picked this out myself!“How dare you try to take this from me?!“Do you even have a heart, you b*stard?!”Harvey let out a chuckle.“Be reasonable, Father.“I have the receipt, yet you tell me the gem’s yours? That’s a l
Harvey York called Thomas Burton for him to park the Audi outside the geomancy market. Then, Harvey told him to leave the car before hopping into the driver’s seat and stepping on the gas.The monks trailing him quickly changed expressions before they went inside their van.After going around in circles, Harvey drove to Indigo Mountain before arriving at the abandoned house where Kellan Ruiz was previously found.Harvey stepped out of the car and grabbed a bottle of soda from the trunk to sip while he washed his hands.Before a minute passed, the van quickly drove over before suddenly stopping right before Harvey.The monks looked at each other with peculiar expressions when they saw Harvey casually drinking his soda.They realized that Harvey had already known about their presence. Safe to say that Harvey was at least reasonably capable.That said, they walked out of the van without paying that to mind.All of them were wearing cassocks with blades in their hands. They were sh
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
