“I did so much for the family, but you people just don’t see it!“Or rather, you just wouldn’t admit to it in the first place!“In your eyes, I’ll always be that useless live-in son-in-law!“You want to talk about conscience?“What a joke!“Let’s just talk about Golden Sands for now!“I was the one who got the ninth branch’s money back.“I was the one who saved Mandy after she got drugged.“I saved every single one of you when you almost died of food poisoning.“I dealt with Simon’s broken statue at the geomancy market.“I also bailed you out of jail…“These are more than enough to repay whatever favor you did for me back then.“Besides, you people aren’t the ones I should be thanking! Grandma Zimmer was the one who saved me!Harvey York showed a playful look on his face.“You remember every single thing that I owe you…“And yet you turn a blind eye to everything I do for you.“Since you look down on me so much, let’s start over.“I don’t care about the ninth branch’s
Mandy Zimmer seemed a little down when she looked at Harvey York.“Give them a chance, Harvey…”Harvey showed her a stern expression.“Fine. I’ll do it if that’s what you want. But remember, there will be no next time…”Then, Harvey headed back inside his BMW.Thomas Burton briefly hesitated before finally starting up the car.Harvey wanted to head to the airport but waved his hand for Thomas to turn the car.He believed that the Zimmer family was there to fetch Xynthia Zimmer.There would be a lot more trouble if he went there as well.When he tried calling Xynthia, he decided to send a text over and rest his eyes after realizing that her phone was still turned off.Mandy felt a little sluggish when she saw Harvey leave the scene outside the car.She knew that Harvey still loved her. If that were not the case, he would not have let go of Anita Jean that easily.That said, a heavy sense of guilt was still weighing on her heart.“B*stard!“That ungrateful b*stard!“Damn h
“Don’t worry, Mandy! I’ll stand up for you for this!Anita Jean covered her beautiful face in righteous fury.“I don’t care who he’s with! I don’t care what background and power he has, either!“I’ll make him pay for slapping me around like that!“I’ll be meeting up with my friends soon! I’ll make sure they teach that useless filth a lesson!”Anita gritted her teeth.She belonged to the Jean family. Even if she was barely considered to be related, there were still a lot of young masters willing to back her up.Of course, a bit of price still needed to be paid.“Enough!Mandy Zimmer spoke gloomily.“Can’t you see that Harvey’s already giving us his respect?!“We’ll only anger him more if we keep looking for trouble! The family will only end up worse!“Besides, we did let him down before.“Just help me out on this, will you?”The family looked at each other before Lilian Yates spoke.“Fine! We’ll listen to you!“We won’t cause him more trouble!“We’ll put all our focus o
Harvey York squinted when he saw a young woman in a tracksuit pushing a wheelchair.A miserable-looking elderly man was sitting on it. He had a feebled look on his face with evil energy surrounding it.Castiel Foster frowned when he stood in front.“Who are you people?“Don’t you know you should stand behind the line?”The young woman frowned.“I heard you have the Augustea here!” she coldly exclaimed.Castiel froze.“How did you know that?” he asked instinctively.“Good!The young woman glared at Castiel.“Enough talk!“Can’t you see that my father’s cursed right now?!“Bring out the Augustea!“If you’re even a little slow, I’ll tear down this place!”It was Castiel’s first time seeing such a senseless person.“Why would we just hand it to you like that?” he exclaimed, chuckling coldly.“If you don’t bring it out, I’ll slap you in the damn face!The young woman completely disdained Castiel’s skinny stature.“Hurry up! I’m giving you three minutes! If you don’t get t
“What? Has the cat got your tongue?”“Useless filth!”After hearing the name Heaven’s Gate, even the rich and powerful people around instinctively stopped talking. They naturally knew what the name meant.Castiel Foster was showing a hint of fear in his eyes.Cliff Saban also frowned. He knew the people before him were no easy opponents.After all, Golden Sands’ branch of Heaven’s Gate was governed by the Gibson family, one of the city’s Hermit Families.There were a lot of Budokans built under their name as well.All the disciples of the Budokans were terrifying yet perverted people.Safe to say that ordinary people would not be able to go against them.Besides, Quill Gibson himself was quite a protective man toward his people.He would stand up for them no matter if they were right or wrong.Legends said he was also the strongest martial artist in Golden Sands. Even the Patel family and the John Family would not dare go against Quill unless they were desperate enough.Cli
Darwin’s throat was occasionally making weird gargling noises.He raised his head painstakingly, and looked at Harvey with disbelief.He didn’t think that Harvey would be this impressive.“I’m the best geomancy expert in the entire city. If I can’t even tell something as simple as this, I wouldn’t have the right to open up the Fortune Hall,” Harvey said, wiping his fingers calmly. “Can you deal with this?”Shay sized up Harvey. “Hurry up already if you can! If you’re a man, stop stalling!”Harvey smiled, not giving a reply.Yes, it’d be easy for him to deal with such a thing.Of course, it’d be near impossible for others to do the same.Shay thought that Harvey since Harvey wasn’t saying anything, he had no strength to help.She and her father had already looked for many well-known doctors. Once they realized what they were dealing with, they showed the same exact expression.She didn’t believe that Harvey was actually the city’s best geomancy expert.“Stop yapping and get o
Bam!Shay slammed a ten-dollar bill on the table.“Consider this a tip,” she said arrogantly.“Now, enough yapping!”“Hand over the gem right now!”Castiel laughed coldly. Even if the people before him were from Heaven’s Gate, he couldn’t help but scoff disdainfully at them.“Are you mad?” he said scornfully. “You want to buy the gem for ten dollars? You should just steal it! What’s the point of talking in the first place?”“Enough of this nonsense!” Shay snarled. “Are you teaching me how to do things?”Her expression changed, and she sent Castiel flying with a single kick.He slammed into a few chairs and tables, his expression horrible. It was a huge mess. Cliff and the others quickly ran forward to lift him back up.Harvey glared coldly at her. “You come to my place just to steal my things and beat up my people?”“What? Are you angry?”Shay was feeling very cocky.“If you don’t hand over the gem, I’ll break all your limbs too!”She was used to acting arrogantly with he
“In any case…”“I only slapped you as a payback for what you did to Castiel.”Harvey showed no emotion.“Since your father’s dying, I won’t make things harder for you.”“But I won’t help you, either. Take your men with you, and leave.”Shay snapped, “Make things harder?”“You think you have the right to do that?”“Not just you, even a hundred of you wouldn’t win against my thumb!”“Do you think I believe that you can save my father?”“You’re just a dumb kid who knows nothing!”Shay was so angry that she laughed. She was looking down on Harvey completely.“I’m giving you one more minute! Hand over the Augustea, and apologize!”“If not, you know exactly what’s going to happen!”She took a step forward, then sent the table in front flying with a kick.The table shattered to pieces. Some customers got injured by the debris, and hurriedly stumbled out of the place. They were terrified of getting involved and dying because of it.“Is that so?”Harvey smiled. He took a step fo
"Camellia?" Harvey said with a faint smile. "That sounds like the name of an ordinary housewife. Anything special about her?"Clarion's eyes twitched before saying, "Camellia is one of our distant relatives. When she was young, she was called the "Queen Bee". It was said that when she was young, the reason she fought was to make her opponents into her servants. If Grand City had a criminal underworld, then Camellia would be the queen of this underworld. "I've already cleaned up the car park, so Platinum Casino probably won't know what happened yet. However, Camellia has too many contacts in Grand City. It won't take long before she finds out it's you."Clarion hesitated for a little before continuing, "Mr. Representative, while you're very strong, Camellia's just too much of a pervert. I have a feeling that you two will see each other soon. Either you find a way to make peace with her, or you hide. If you do become enemies, then she won't stop until either one of you is dead."It
"Bastard!" All the men in black exchanged a glance and all pounced at Harvey with a dagger. Harvey looked like he could fight, but they were sure that one man couldn't win a fight when outnumbered.They were going to use their numbers to kill Harvey.Slap! Smack! Slap!Harvey didn't let them have their way and immediately slapped the men in black. He struck all of them onto the ground with one slap each.It was just a simple slap, but Harvey made their faces swollen and destroyed their self-confidence. They couldn't understand how despite being so slender, Harvey could fight so well.Forget about retaliation. They couldn't even avoid a slap from Harvey!The woman instantly pointed her gun at Harvey and sneered coldly, "You brainless, ignorant fool. You don't understand who you've crossed and what crime you have committed!"Slap!Before she could finish, Harvey had already appeared in front of her and slapped her away too. She screamed, thrown into midair, her back slamming ag
The woman who was drinking coffee frowned. It was obvious she was very unhappy with Havey's sudden interference."Kid, don’t you know you shouldn't meddle in affairs that don't concern you?" The bald man glanced at Harvey, disdain on his face. "There are many times when those who meddle in others' affairs die horribly."The bald man gestured to his men and the three of them pounced at Harvey, obviously wanting to teach him a lesson. However, they had just gotten a little closer when Harvey took a step forward.It was just a simple move, but the woman who was drinking coffee froze before yelling, "Baldie! Watch out!"The bald man was also instantly soaked with sweat. Harvey was just too fast! He never imagined someone could move so fast. Before he could even retreat, Harvey had already appeared right in front of him and slapped him.Smack!There was a loud smack, and Harvey's hand had already hit his face. The bald man's head slammed onto the ground, blood instantly flowing from
"I can't explain everything. I'm at the car park in Grand City's Central Business District! Please, save me!" Mrs. Hoffman begged. Harvey could hear the fear in her voice.While Harvey didn't know what had happened, he knew that if it wasn't because she was already cornered, she wouldn't have asked a stranger for help. He immediately put on the GPS and said, "Wait for me. I'll be there in three minutes tops."Very quickly, he drove into the car park and parked at a relatively hidden corner. Once he got out of the car, he put on a face mask. Opening the door, he saw a few men in black forcing a woman in a traditional garb into the corner.They held a cigar in their hands, huffing and puffing. They would even snicker perversely. A few security guards handling the safety of the car park weren't that far away, but they stood far away in the corner, too frightened to look.From that alone, it was obvious that these men in black's status must be quite high.Behind them, a coffee table
Harvey was feeling extremely awkward. He faked a cough and changed the topic. "Mr. Wenzel, I don't know what you've been doing in the last decade, but for you to be able to return in such a critical time means you've been paying attention to Grand City all this time, correct? You have let things take its course in Grand City, haven't you?"At Harvey's words, Wenzel and Vaida both put aside the matter of Harvey's marriage.There was a hint of surprise in Wenzel's eyes. "Why do you think that?""Simple. From the way Dan managed to become a scion, I can tell there are plenty of different factions within Grand City. All these factions are probably only respectful of you on the surface. The moment you disappeared, they did everything they could to push Dan into the seat of power so that they could have a puppet they could control."It's sad Dan didn't realize that and simply believed he was skilled in the game. In truth, without their protection, he's no one worth mentioning."Wenzel
Wenzel chuckled and said to Harvey, "You're too humble, Harvey. While you're not the chef, you're the customer. The customer is always right in matters of taste. As a chef, I have to make sure my customers are happy, correct? Otherwise, no one will come anymore."What I want to know is whether you want to be full, or to have a good meal. If you just want to be full, there's plenty for you to taste. But if you want to have it good, you can probably eat a few loaves in the morning. You'll be hungry before lunch."Harvey gave it a thought after listening to Wenzel. Still, he sighed and said, "In reality, I want both. The oven tests a chef's patience a lot. You need to do it again and again, but you need different heat for different pastries. The faster you want them done, the harder it is to make them delicious."That's why if you ask me, rather than trying to simply be full, I believe that one should make each pastry the best it possibly can. If there's something you can't bake or can
"Once everything was ready, Lord Howell then stood on the hill overlooking Lord Felipe's camp across the Red River. He believed his victory was at hand. "Suddenly, a cold breeze blew and the flag of his army hit his face. Only then did he suddenly realize that Lord Felipe's ships were coming from the North, while his own ships were stationed in the South. This was during winter, and the wind was blowing the Northwest. Using a fire attack would not only spare Lord Felipe's forces, but his own ships would also be burned."Lord Howell fell sick and he couldn't be cured. All the generals and soldiers were very nervous. At this time, Lord Kye's chief strategist Lord Albion came to visit him. He said to Lord Howell, 'I have a prescription to cure you of your disease. To defeat Lord Felipe, flame is the best weapon. Everything is ready now except for the Divine Wind.""The wind changed direction as soon as he said that, and Lord Felipe was defeated. And that wind had decided the national
Thanks to everyone's cooperation, the ambulance quickly appeared and took Dan and everyone away. Whether they had truly fainted or pretended to faint, they all cooperated throughout the ordeal.At the very least, fainting was better than being humiliated.And that was how a political move ended quickly before it could even officially begin. Everyone watching this was somewhat speechless. Their attention finally shifted to Harvey for a while before disappearing.Harvey couldn't be bothered by them. He smirked and then turned the streaming app on his phone off.After this, Lapis had become much more careful. She quickly arranged for more personnel to defend all the residence's entrances and exits. At the same time, she also sent more personnel to keep an eye on Dan so that something like this wouldn't happen again.Harvey simply shrugged and said nothing. He believed something like this wouldn't occur again. Dan was no fool. He would know that the same trick wouldn't work twice.
Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!Stickers of rockets filled the chat on the phone's screen. Harvey looked at the stickers and happily said, "Looks like you can attract quite the attention, Dan! You're almost as popular as a small YouTuber! The rocket sticker is one dollar, I think. There are so many here, meaning you've already earned around 60 dollars by kneeling a minute here! This is so worth it!""You…" The prideful Dan could feel himself choking. Suddenly, he coughed out a mouthful of blood.He was the scion of Grand City. The scion of Parkerville! Yet to Harvey, he had just become a YouTuber who could earn 60 dollars a minute. Most importantly, Harvey was streaming him kneeling in front of numerous netizens. He ground his teeth, infuriated.Not that far away, Clarion and Neve quickly left. The moment Harvey appeared, they had a very bad feeling. When they saw Harvey fix his phone on the selfie stick, they could feel a chill down their spine. Realizing they weren't part of the st
