Harvey waved his hand, signaling for Xynthia to keep quiet. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Chiba.“What’s the goal of the convention, anyway?“If it’s just for the sake of showing off, I’m afraid that the things from the Island Nations are completely unworthy.“If you’re using the opportunity to take away my country’s priceless relics, then I’m sorry, but I have to decline.“Not just that, I’ll even contact the government of Golden Sands to stop this from happening.“You’ll have to send a plan to me tomorrow.“I’ll take a look at it before deciding how to solve the problem.”Harvey’s expression was grim.If it was just any ordinary convention, he wouldn’t be bothered to care. But if the Islanders had other motives, then he’d promptly take action.“You want a plan? To see how you can solve the problem?”The people couldn’t help laughing again. They were looking at Harvey as if he was a total idiot.‘Young Master Chiba’s only saying that to ridicule him!‘And what happene
Chiba and the others went slack with shock. They looked at Harvey, speechless. The smile on their faces froze instantly, replaced by a look of shock.Nobody could believe that Harvey would actually be invited to be the government’s chief consultant for geomancy arts.Xynthia was stunned as well. She didn’t think that Harvey was so impressive, to the point where Eliel looked up to him.Harvey froze. He didn’t know that Eliel would actually talk about this on the phone. He thought about the situation for a moment. “This feels a little rushed. Let me think about this for now…”“Of course! We won’t force you if you don’t think that you’re a good fit. But if you want to, just give us a call anytime.”Eliel chuckled, then hung up.Chiba and the others looked ugly, at a loss for words.Ensley questioned Harvey immediately.“Heh, heh, heh! The first-in-command called you?“Do you think I’d believe such a thing?“Do you really think you’re that impressive? We don’t even know who exa
Chiba Nobita and the others, completely stunned, returned to their senses after hearing those words.‘An owner of a geomancy shop who’s also a live-in son-in-law had no right for Eliel Braff to look up to him!’‘Someone like that has 1.3 billion?!’‘What a damn joke!’“I told you! His entire outfit probably doesn’t even cost fifteen dollars! In that case, how can someone like that be a geomancy expert or a billionaire?!”“He’s doing all this just to show off! He even got people pretending to call him!”“How can someone be this arrogant?! He’s completely ruining the goddess’ reputation!”“Yeah! Take a look in the mirror! You don’t even have the right to be a rich heir or a master!”“Young Master Chiba and Young Master Ramon are just mocking you, yet you’re here acting up a storm? Do you really think that you have the skills or something?”Chiba, Ramon Lee, and the others were coldly chuckling when they relentlessly ridiculed Harvey York.After all, they believed that he almost
“What? Does a lackey like you like to lecture others?Harvey York smiled faintly.“Come! Make me feel regret!”Ramon Lee let out a cold chuckle.“I rarely come to this city, but you should know that everyone from the country’s upper social circle is deeply connected!“You’ve heard of the John family before, haven’t you?“Colson John himself is my cousin!“With his status and identity in Golden Sands, he’d let you experience a horrible death!”Ramon looked prideful.Naturally, he would always benefit from mentioning Colson’s name.“Colson?Harvey smiled after hearing the familiar name.“Fine. Get him here. Tell him to make me regret ever coming here!”Ramon froze. He waited for Harvey to grovel but never thought he would react this way.‘I’m talking about the second young master of the John family, you b*stard!“You live in the city too, kid!“Do you know the John family?!“Do you know who the second young master of the family is?!Ramon could not help but remind Harve
Chiba Nobita signaled for Ramon Lee to pour everyone a huge drink.The Whiskey from the Island Nations was bittersweet and extremely strong, enough to make anyone drop after a few cups.Xynthia Zimmer immediately held her nose shut when Ramon brought the Whiskey over.“I’m sorry, I can’t drink. I’ll just have juice.”Naturally, Xynthia did not want to get in trouble again after what had happened before.Harvey York would probably stop accompanying her if the same happened again.“Ms. Zimmer, everyone here knows you’re a pure and innocent goddess in the entertainment industry.“It’s our blessing to get to meet you finally!“It’s a good day today!“We can’t just go by without having some alcohol!“Come! Just take a sip!“Young Master Chiba brought this all the way from the Island Nations! Ordinary people wouldn’t even get to drink this!Ramon looked exceptionally honored.“Come! Just one cup! We won’t force you after that…”Ramon happily filled Xynthia’s cup.Xynthia showe
Ramon Lee showed a bright smile.“Oh my, Sir York! Since you’re Xynthia’s boyfriend, it’s only natural for you to drink in her stead!“Mind you, we have rules here!“Other than hers, you also have to drink your own!“You won’t break the rules now, would you?”Ramon poured another cup before bringing both in front of Harvey York.Xynthia Zimmer’s eyes twitched. She quickly kicked Harvey, signaling him to stop fighting.Naturally, she could tell that Ramon and the others harbored ill intent.Harvey burst out laughing, as if he did not feel the kick.“Of course! I’ll definitely follow the rules now that you said so!“Come! Let’s drink!”Harvey poured both cups of Whiskey in his mouth.“A bona fide man!”Chiba Nobita picked up his cup before downing his drink.Ramon did the same.The two prideful people were coldly smiling at Harvey. In their eyes, Harvey was just a clown making a fool out of himself.‘There’ll be all the time in the world to toy with Xynthia when Harvey’s
“You’re such a hero, Sir York!Ensley Johnson walked over with a cup in hand.“It’s a true blessing to have a drink with you! You need to do this with me!”Ensley gave Harvey York a seductive look.Xynthia Zimmer instinctively stood in front of Harvey.“Stop, Ensley. I’ll drink with you…”“This isn’t good, Xynthia!“Men have been drinking for women since ancient times, not vice versa!“You’ll make Harvey look like useless filth for doing this!”Then, Ensley smiled faintly.“You’re not done already, are you?”The women playfully chuckled after hearing those words.The atmosphere was extremely tense.“Sit down, Xynthia! Ms. Johnson’s right!“Men can’t just back down like this!”Harvey burst out laughing before clinking cups with Ensley and downing his drink.Ensley grabbed another bottle of Whiskey before filling the cups again.“Let’s have another, Sir York!“I apologize for everything I did before!“Please forgive me!”Harvey chuckled before downing the cup again, a
After seeing Harvey York’s greedy look, Chiba Nobita gave a cold chuckle before speaking.“Of course! Bring out the two boxes of 1982 liquor!“We’re not done till we’re drunk here!”The two opened each of their bottles before starting to drink again.Even though Harvey seemed like he was about to topple at any minute, he still stood no matter what.Xynthia Zimmer kept warning Harvey to stop, but he completely ignored her when he kept clinking cups with the others, as if he was a macho man.Yet another box of alcohol was finished.Almost half of the people could not handle Whiskey and liquor simultaneously and dropped to the ground.Even Chiba was hyperventilating while leaning on the couch. He would not dare to take another round with Harvey anymore.Harvey smiled before returning to normal. He poured himself another cup and walked before Ramon Lee and the others.“Come. Don’t hold yourself back.“You’ve all asked to have so much with me. It’s only natural that I repay the f
