Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!Charlize took out her checkbook and wrote down a few numbers. Then, she slapped a check on the table.“Keep pretending! All you want is just some money! You act as if you’re some sort of saint!”Charlize laughed coldly.“Look here! 1.5 million! I don’t care if the tea set is real or not! I paid for it anyway!“Can we go now? Hurry it up! Don’t waste my time!“Don’t you know that every minute of my time is worth thousands of dollars?”As Amora’s best assistant, Charlize looked down on show-offs who thought of themselves highly the most.‘These people don’t know just what kind of disaster they’ll bring to themselves for showing off to the Foster family…‘Don’t they understand that making Mr. Brayan owe them would give them a chance to make their own wealthy family?‘No wonder they can only resort to being con men for the rest of their lives…’Charlize was filled with disdain toward Harvey and the others. Shay ran to Prince and the others, and sipped h
The men looked at each other for a moment. Then, a Westerner leading the group walked forward, prepared to slap Prince to the ground.Bam!Prince smacked the man down with his crutch without holding back. He then swung the crutch down again.Crack!A bone was snapped immediately.Since Harvey gave the order to break some legs, Prince naturally wouldn’t hold back.“Get him!”The remaining guards froze for a moment, then rushed with their fists.Even with his legs covered in plaster, Prince was still Quill’s son; why would he be afraid of a bunch of bodyguards in the first place?In under a minute, the men were all beaten down. They lay on the floor with their legs broken, wailing in pain.The last one standing frantically rushed backward; his entire body was shivering in fear even as he stood in front of Charlize.“You…”Charlize was bewildered.‘Even a cripple is this impressive?‘What a joke!‘He took down a dozen of my men with his crutch?‘Nobody would even believe m
Calling the cops was destined to be useless. The Foster family was the one who caused trouble in the first place, and yet, they were the ones demanding justice.When Soren got the call, he quickly hung up after haphazardly skimming past the subject.Charlize was so angry, she was on the verge of coughing up blood.She had no choice but to return to the Ostrane Five, shivering in fear. She kneeled with a horrible expression as she explained everything in detail to Amora.“That bastard doesn’t respect the family at all, milady!“Not only did he decline our kindness, but he even got his people to smash our cars and break our men’s legs!“He even told us that he’ll make us suffer if we don’t get out of the city in three days!”Naturally, Charlize wouldn’t expose herself for acting high and mighty. Instead, she put all the blame on Harvey.She believed Amora would take out Harvey in a fit of rage to quell her anger as well.Charlize was just a subordinate, but she wouldn’t allow he
Charlize was overjoyed; she believed she could regain her pride back through this. A man in his nightgown walked down the spiral staircase just as she was about to make the call. There were a few subordinates following him, but he was stubborn enough to walk on his own instead of relying on others.He was none other than the high and mighty head of the Foster family, Brayan.A man from the top-rated circle of the entire country would naturally have his own pride and dignity.“Father!” Amora rushed forward, and took his hand.Charlize and the others kneeled; they were shivering in fear, too afraid to make a single sound.Brayan sat casually in his chair, and took a sip of his black tea before finally speaking up.“It’d be embarrassing if we called the royal court for such a trivial matter.”Naturally, Brayan managed to keep himself under control with Mr. Davis’s help. He was holding a cross in his hand. For the time being, his expression was back to normal.“Father, I’m planni
While the Foster family pondered on whether they should wait for a few more days or not…Under the Indigo Mountain, an ancient manor beside the Hulroy Lake was brimming with lights. The place seemed to be destroyed after a huge battle; smoky trails could be seen all over.Looking closely, many bodyguards with firearms could be seen standing in the shadows of the building.The howling night winds made everyone shiver. In the deepest parts of the manor was an old-looking villa, decorated extravagantly on the inside.A fire burned brightly in a European-style fireplace.A massive round table was set in the middle of the hall. There were a few people leaning on a big, comfortable Italian couch. Blaine wasn’t present, but his associates were. They were all people who worked under Vaughn.Vaughn was playing with an ancient vase, making sounds of approval, as if he was interested in it. In front of him was none other than Nameless, sitting cross-legged, clad in a white suit.Two of
Vaughn grinned when he heard the killing intent in Nameless’s words.“As long as you’re happy with the documents provided.“Right! Young Master John told me something.”Hearing that Blaine was mentioned, Nameless slowly sat up straight despite his high and mighty attitude. “What is he asking?”“He said that the John family has suffered some losses recently, and they seem to all be connected to Harvey.“He’d only embarrass himself if he went against Harvey, who has a high status now.“It’d be better if you do it instead. He could clean up for you after that.”It was clear that Vaughn’s words had a different meaning; he sounded quite encouraging.Nameless froze. Then, he smiled.“I’d just be dealing with some bugs for Young Master John, anyway. It’s just business between us.”“It’s better to be more open-minded. You should know, Young Master John’s strength in the city isn’t something you can imagine.“The Patel family and the six Hermit Families, they’re all just worthless tr
“Not only are they strong and ruthless, but they’re all Kshatriyas of India as well!“Not a lot of people here has the guts to lay a finger on people like them.“After all, it’d cause an international dispute!”Nameless was proud.Vaughn was shocked by what he heard.“How unexpected! I didn’t think Mr. Faceless could get such people here.“Other than the John family, nobody else can suppress the Rakshasa Monks!“Kshatriyas could trample on so many people!”Nameless felt proud after hearing such praise.“Aside from that, I contacted the Abito Way as well. The outer elder was furious after hearing that his outstanding disciple was killed by such a despicable man.“Three experts of the Abito Way are on their way here after the outer elder told them to seek justice!”“Evermore, the Abito Way, and the Celestial Temple’s Rakshasa Monks…“With all of these people, Harvey and Julian are as good as dead.“Not just them, but I’ll trample the Patel family and the Hermit Families to t
While Vaughn and Nameless were having a heart-to-heart talk, Harvey received a video call in Fortune Hall.Kairi, on the other side, was wearing a short skirt. Her long, alluring legs could occasionally be seen. Even with Harvey’s strong willpower, he couldn’t help but be impressed by Kairi’s ability to lure him from afar. Sensing Harvey’s odd expression, Kairi smiled proudly before sipping some tea. “I called you for something important, Sir York.”Harvey gestured for Kairi to continue.“We kept a close eye on Nameless and the rest these past few days.“Evermore wouldn’t just give up after their loss here.“Blaine hasn’t taken any action, but Vaughn has visited him three times. Every time, he’d stay for at least three hours.“Judging from this, we can tell that even the Thompson family is probably involved with Evermore.“Also, there have been quite a lot of new faces entering the city. These people have one thing in common: they’re all martial arts experts.“They didn’t t
