“It’s nothing. I just figured it wouldn’t seem like a big deal for Darius Jackson to give you a villa judging from your talents.“After all, you’re not even humbling yourself in front of people like Brayan Foster. It’s only natural for Darius to respect you anyway.“That was why I decided.“The villa might just turn into that mistress’ present after all…”Mandy Zimmer smiled faintly.Harvey bitterly chuckled.“What mistress…?”“Kairi Patel, Yvonne Xavier, Queenie York, Kait Walker, Katy Cobb, Leslie Clark, Irene Johnson…Mandy kept counting her fingers as she mentioned the names.“Impressive, Harvey!“I could barely count them all with my fingers!”Harvey cleared his throat.“They’re just friends. It’s inappropriate for you to call them mistresses now, isn’t it…?”“What are you saying? They’re either your secretary, lackey, or besties, right?” Mandy retorted.“Don’t worry. I won’t get jealous because of this. I just think I’ll get angry if you get stolen because I didn’t
When Harvey York returned to Fortune Hall, a Toyota Alphard was parked on an old pier near the Rio River.A few people were comfortably leaning on the seats inside with wine in hand. That said, their expressions were peculiar.The most eye-catching person of them all was Kairi Patel, with one of her trusted subordinates, Dariel Jackson.He once had a huge conflict with Harvey at the Golden Sands Food Market. He was willingly working for Harvey then, but the look of a lackey on him was already long gone.He was constantly perusing the documents showing on his laptop.Kairi looked at her phone for a short while before finally speaking.“How’s everything?”“A little troublesome.”Dariel frowned while holding his laptop.“First off, Quill Gibson had already gone to the Heaven’s Gate because of Jakai Vaus’ death. He was detained by Heaven’s Gate’s law enforcement to investigate the situation further before he could be released.“In that period, the Vaus family isn’t allowed to be
It was natural that a great war was about to happen in the city.That said, Harvey York did not pay much mind about that. As usual, he continued his job as a geomancy expert in the Fortune Hall.For Mandy Zimmer’s safety, Harvey thought about the situation before he texted Queenie York for her to send out Julian York.It was said that ever since Julian suffered great losses, he returned to Hong Kong to train in seclusion. He even kneeled outside Grandma York’s room, begging for an ancient scripture from the family.Harvey wanted to see if Julian had actually grown from the last time and was beneficial in the situation.On the next day, early in the morning. Julian had not arrived, but Harvey received word that Soren Braff found vital evidence at the hospital and was asked to take a look.Harvey asked Thomas Burton to send him there before heading to the VIP sick room.The place was a crime scene. Along with Jakai Vaus’ special identity, the police had been guarding the room to e
Bam bam bam!Towering men started kicking the door. Every single kick was utterly horrifying, as if the door would seemingly topple.Simon Zimmer took a few steps back with an anxious expression. He haphazardly pulled out his phone, thinking of calling the cops, until he realized there was no signal. His face lost all color immediately after.Harvey York felt completely speechless.“What’s going on, Dad?”“I was just trying to be nice!“I came here to deal with Mandy’s discharge procedures…“But when I came across the hallway, I saw a young girl swaying around while walking near the guard rail.“I instinctively went up to get her, but she fell onto the grass downstairs before I could.“We were only two floors up, but she still passed out after the fall.“I called for emergency rescue, but nobody responded.“Her parents seem rich. After seeing the sight, they took their men and started chasing me down without even hearing me out!“I would’ve been dead if I wasn’t quick enoug
Maybe it was because of fear. Perhaps it was because of Harvey York’s calmness.In any case, Harvey’s actions made everyone calm down.They instinctively looked at Harvey, as if they were hoping for something to happen.“What are you trying to do, Harvey?!“You’re not a doctor!“You’re just a geomancy expert! What are you thinking?!”Simon Zimmer trembled. It seemed like Harvey was about to escalate the situation.Toying with a child’s body would probably make things a lot worse.Harvey could not be bothered to reply to Simon. He quickly signaled the man to let go of his daughter before speaking.“Enough of this. Your daughter’s not dead.“Give me time. I’ll bring her back.”The young girl was not breathing anymore. Her heartbeat was completely gone, but her soul was still lingering. Her survival instincts were intact.With enough speed, the girl could be saved using the knowledge from the Book of Changes.That said, Harvey needed to be swift.“What? She’s not even breath
Harvey York could not be bothered to respond to Amora Foster. He quickly dipped his finger in cinnabar and started drawing on a piece of paper. Then, he burned the paper before dropping it in a cup.He poured some water into the cup and fed it to the young girl, but she did not wake up like he expected.He frowned after seeing the sight.“She’s not awake…?“Her soul’s still intact though…”Amora showed more disdain after hearing Harvey muttering to himself.“I told you! He’s just a con man!“He thinks he can revive the dead just because he’s a geomancy expert!“At the end of the day, he’s only trying to get the crowd on his side!“If he’s really that skillful, he would’ve been very well-known in the city already!“You should make him stop right now!“The child will be rolling in her grave if you don’t!“Send him to the police in case he decides to scam people again!”Naturally, Amora did not restrain herself from embarrassing Harvey.She did not mind taking him out by say
The crowd was cheering.The insults and ridicule were immediately turned into compliments and applause.After all, they could not afford to go against such a skillful man. They would need a man like this sooner or later.The middle-aged couple was so excited that they were about to kneel, but Harvey York quickly lifted them.At the same time, Harvey told everything that Simon Zimmer told him, revealing the truth.Simon was not a bad person. Rather, he was trying to save the girl despite his lack of ability.After knowing this, the couple thanked Harvey while also showing gratitude toward Simon.Naturally, they were just panicking before. They would have found out after asking for the hospital’s surveillance footage if that was not the case.After comforting the couple, Harvey then curiously glanced at Amora Foster.Amora coldly chuckled when she sensed Harvey’s playful gaze.“Don’t think you’re skillful just because you got lucky, Harvey.“Without any real talent, you won’t
“You called saying it was terrible and many people were trying to kill you!“What happened?!“Was it because of this ungrateful b*stard?!“I’ll slap him to death if he even dares to do that!”Lilian Yates glared at Harvey York, as if she was prepared to crush him.Gabriel Lee and Avery Foster were awkwardly looking at him.They had no right to hate him, after all.But if they were to indulge him, Lilian would also be disrespected.Harvey’s faint smile made them feel unspeakably horrible. They wanted to slam their heads into holes in the ground at this moment.“You don’t know this, Lilian!“I would’ve been dead if it wasn’t for Harvey!Simon quickly stopped Lilian from lashing out before he explained the situation.“Harvey managed to get me out of the situation! If not, I wouldn’t be able to solve anything!“No matter the case, I should be thanking Harvey.”“Hmph! He just got lucky!”Lilian’s tone was as cold as ice when she sized up Harvey. After all, she clearly disdain
