Harvey stared at Ensley with interest, while Kade with shock. Meanwhile, Esther and the others respectfully made way for Ensley. They looked at her with reverence.Ensley ignored them, and approached Kade. She looked cold.Kade sized her up, and chuckled. “Are you here to stand up for Esther? Against me?”“That’s right,” Ensley said. “That’s why I’m here.”“Oh? I didn’t think that you’d be this impressive!”Kade clapped his hands, smiling calmly.“That said, have you thought of the consequences of doing this?“Do you realize who you’re up against?”Ensley pressed her thin lips in disdain.“Since you’re being this direct, I won’t hold back either.“The Hermit Families are pretty impressive—but don’t forget, that’s all you’ll ever be!“Just hide in the shadows of history! Stop trying to flaunt your strength outside!“If you do that, you’ll have to think of the consequences!“My background aside, it might be a little hard for the person supporting me to deal with the Hermit F
As expected, a lot of people looked gloomy after hearing that Ensley was supported by Blaine.The six Hermit Families were impressive beings. After all, they had countless dynasties since ancient times. The surviving families were all born with royal blood; they were all discreet yet terrifying.That said, the times were different. The top ten families were the true leaders of Country H!Judging from this, even the five hidden families would probably be no match against the top ten families.Simply put, from the people’s limited knowledge, Kade’s identity was completely inferior to Blaine’s.The people who could go against him were only young masters and princes from the Patel family.Ensley said that Blaine was also friends with the person supporting her.This was enough to prove that Ensley was involved with the top ten families—maybe even one of the top-rated families of Wolsing.She could probably be related to the Xavier family or the Wright family.The people around shiv
“Are you sure those two are enough to suppress me?”Kade smiled.“You used the Oni Blade against my family. What makes you think that I can’t pay you back for this?”“I think I’ve already made myself clear, Young Master Bolton!” Esther said. “I really don’t know anything about the Oni Blade!“In the first place, buying antiques and geomancy tools depened on your judgment!”Esther smiled faintly. “It’s your own fault you bought the wrong item.“How about this? Since you’re a regular here, I’ll compromise. I bought that with three hundred and forty thousand dollars.“So, I’ll just give you that money instead.”Esther grinned playfully. Returning the money was nothing, but the amount was just humiliating.She was completely disrespecting Kade.“Looks like you really think I can’t do anything to you just because of Emery and Blaine.”Kade’s expression was as cold as ice.“Do you really think that the six Hermit Families are a joke?”“Heh, heh, heh! Of course we know how
A calm voice could be heard at this moment.It wasn’t Esther or Ensley; This time, it was Harvey, who had been watching the show the entire time.“We live in a lawful society. We need to be civilized people.“I’ll have to teach you this lesson for your father.“Fighting and killing are out of style in this day and age. It’d be bad if videos of you committing such crimes went viral for some reason.”Harvey smiled gently. “That’s why people should be smart.“Don’t be provoked into doing what other people want you to. “If that were to happen, it’d be too late for regrets.”Harvey understood just how powerful the Wright family and the Xavier family were.The Bolton family alone wouldn’t be able to go against two of those families.It’d be refreshing for Kade to destory the place, but the repercussions would be dire.Besides, Harvey was planning to lure out Blaine anyway. When else was he going to step up, if not now?“You?!”“Harvey?!”Ensley and Esther recognized Harvey i
The customers looked oddly at Harvey.Even Kade felt a little speechless; Harvey was just an ordinary person. How was he planning to deal with Empire Hall?He couldn’t just scream at them.If he did, it’d be too lame.Ensley looked at her Pont des Amoureux watch.“I don’t have time to waste on a live-in son-in-law like you.“I’m giving you half an hour to see what you’d do.“It doesn’t matter if you get support or report this to authorities.“I’ll take it all!”Hearing Ensley’s mocking tone and seeing Esther’s prideful expression, Harvey smiled. He didn’t pay mind to it all. He knew that he could only make arrogant women like Ensley learn a lesson by making her suffer. Torturing a person’s heart was always more interesting than just killing.Harvey casually poured himself a cup of tea. Meanwhile, Ensley and Esther glared daggers at him.“How much money do you have right now, Kade?”“Less than three hundred million.”“That’s enough.”Harvey nodded, then looked curiously
“If you and Young Master Bolton think you’re capable, you’re more than welcome to buy everything! I’ll give you a twenty percent discount if you do!”Esther glared disdainfully at Harvey. “Well, you might as well just gamble your clothes away.”Naturally, Esther knew it’d already be impressive enough to find anything slightly valuable. If Harvey actually bought all the rocks here, the shop wouldn’t suffer any losses at all.Harvey smiled.“I can’t buy everything, but I can buy around a hundred rocks. Can you give me a fifteen percent discount for that?”“Of course!” Esther chuckled coldly.“Are sure you won’t regret it?” Harvey asked curiously.Esther scoffed. “Empire Hall will never take responsibility for the goods sold. We will never condone any trickery on our customers.”“Enough, Harvey! You’re just a live-in son-in-law. What’s the point of showing off here?” Ensley said, pretending to be nice.“I’d like to see how you’ll explain to the Bolton family once you lose all o
Soon, the total price was revealed—it was eighty million dollars in total.Out of generosity, Esther even gave Kade a member’s discount with a smile. Naturally, she was planning to torture his heart.“The stones just came here, Young Master Bolton. You’re the first customer, too!“To show our sincerity, we’ll provide you with an expert to cut the stones open for free if you want!”Esther’s smile was heinous. Kade found it downright infuriating.Harvey smiled.“Since you’re willing to provide the service, then I’ll gladly take it.“Come on! Open them up, then!”The entire geomancy market’s experts were brought here.They were shocked to see so many stones in front of them, but they quickly went to work.Sounds of engines roared in the main hall, stimulating the crowd’s eyes and nerves.Even in such a chaotic mess, everyone was still waiting for Harvey to make a fool out of himself.No matter the case, there were still eighty million dollars worth of stones! Normally speaki
The people around froze; they were shocked to see all the valuable gemstones in front of their eyes. They had no clue what to say.Kade froze as well, then burst out in laughter.The beautiful workers dropped their phones to the ground, their mouths wide open.Ensley and Esther were dumbfounded, as if they were furiously slapped in the face. They couldn’t believe Harvey actually picked out every single valuable gem in the shop.What’s more, these gems were of the highest grade. Their combined total was close to 1.5 billion dollars.If the gems were put up for auction, the price would be astronomical.In under half an hour, a measly seventy million dollars turned into 1.5 billion! The speed was just ungodly!“My God!”“They’re all valuable gems!”“This is insane! How is this possible?”“Even the country’s best experts wouldn’t be able to do such a thing!”“This is definitely the work of a top-rated geomancy expert!”“I didn’t believe that legendary geomancy experts could sen
