Harvey shook his head.“You don’t have to. You’re in a deeper mess than I am. I can take care of myself.”Kairi smiled.“My dear Sir York, this isn’t about needing to do things. This is about our attitude.“Our enemies will naturally wait and see our reaction after leaking such information.“Do you think they’d come for you that easily if we didn’t send anyone for your protection?“They’ll only take action if they’re confident in completing the mission, despite the difficulty we set up.“If they see that it’s too easy to get to you, they might think we’re setting up a trap. If that’s the case, they might not proceed with their plan.”Harvey was completely speechless.“You’re just trying to use me as bait at the end of the day, right?”Kairi blinked.“What are you saying, Sir York?” she asked gently.“I’m sending my trusted subordinates to you for your sake!“The Patel family asked Heaven’s Gate to bring up a group of expert fighters, too.“We spent a lot of money to get g
The next day, everything went on as usual. A hundred number plates were handed out to the customers.With Harvey’s lead, work went on at a steady pace.When it was dinnertime, Leona got off from work and prepared a meal for Harvey.She was cooking roasted chicken, using a recipe that recently blew up on the internet. Aside from the freshness of the meat, the taste felt quite like an old home.For someone like Leona, who grew up in a city since childhood, making this was a rare experience.Harvey had experienced quite a bit; he had already tasted all sorts of things in his life. While he was leaning on his chair with a smile, he’d occasionally give pointers for Leona to improve.Kellan, Cliff, and the others went somewhere else to have their meal, as if they were giving Harvey and Leona space. Even Julian was dragged out of the place.Harvey could only smiled bitterly against such a plan.The others must’ve known about his divorce. That was why they were trying to help.Even so
The gentleman froze before he let out a cold chuckle.“Not bad, kid. You’re pretty smart.“Then again, you should know that smart people usually die quickly…“You know too much. You have no other choice but to die.”The gentleman squinted around him.He thought Harvey York had already set up an ambush, but he was only sitting still while waiting for his demise.Thank goodness for him.“I know quite a bit…“But I’ve never been one to seek death.Harvey steadily wrote something on the piece of paper…“Through all the ups and downs, the sun will still rise nonetheless.”Those words were filled with a hint of malice and endless dignity. A single glance would stupefy any ordinary person.“Keep pretending!The gentleman was filled with disdain after seeing Harvey’s actions.“There’s only one thing left for you to write, your damn will!“How will you write it?“I should remind you! You should just donate your stuff to an orphanage!“Young Master Nameless will come for your en
“Call the cops?!The gentleman sized up Leona Foley before letting out a cold chuckle.“You’re just a little b*tch who can do nothing but seduce the men around you!“Call the cops then if you want!“I’ll chop my head off just for you if the cops even do your bidding!“Do you think I’d just show up without preparing myself?!“Beautiful women like you really are stupid, huh?!“Useless filth!”The gentleman started cackling.Leona showed a horrible expression when she turned on her phone while gritting her teeth.She realized there was no signal around the place.Naturally, those people had already jammed the signal before showing up.They had made every single preparation they could.After seeing Leona’s despaired look, the gentleman spotted a smile as he waved his hand.“We don’t have that much time!“Send them their way!”Almost a hundred men slowly unsheathed their swords simultaneously.They took small steps as they inched closer, mustering their energy while showing
The gentleman frowned at the sight.“It’s just an illusion! Don’t be scared! Go!“Kill them! They’re finished!”A few men leaped in the air while gritting their teeth.Leona Foley frowned when she flicked the cinnabar in the air.Fwoom!The air lit up in flames. The men who pounced forward were horrified by the sight before they were completely blinded. They were wailing in pain nonstop when they crashed onto the ground.Before the others reacted, Leona quickly became accustomed to the situation. She quickly waved her cinnabar in the air again, conjuring a flame wall.“Aaagh!”A dozen men were trapped by the wall. They were rolling on the ground while screaming, hoping to extinguish the fire caught on them.In just a few seconds, the place was a giant mess.Bam!The gentleman’s expression instantly changed when he saw a piece of paper flying right toward his face. He retreated as quickly as he could before falling flat on his face.What a miserable sight.There were only
The others also quickly pulled out their hunting firearms with fierce gazes.Naturally, they did not want to use such weapons if they could…But they would not mind filling Harvey York with holes since he wanted to die so badly!“Do it!”The gentleman waved his hand and gave the order. He could not be bothered to spout any more nonsense.The look on his face was as pompous as it could have gotten.Swoosh swoosh swoosh!Howling winds were heard outside at this very moment.The men’s throats, hearts, and other spots on the men were blood red.They all fell to the ground, with resentment on their faces.Some of them were struggling on the ground but to no avail.The men were all incapacitated!In under a minute, the killers that the gentleman brought were all done for!The gentleman’s eyes were twitching constantly. He instinctively looked back, trying to figure out what happened.Dozens of figures could be seen standing on the walls.A twenty-seven-year-old woman with a pr
Then, Aliya Patel shifted her gaze of disgust at Harvey York and Leona Foley.The two managed to deal with a lot of the men…But in her mind, using underhanded tactics was utterly unacceptable.A true expert would crush their opponents with sheer might!After all, tricks and schemes are nothing compared to that!The moment Harvey even did something like that, Aliya’s mind had already settled.She clicked her tongue. Her intention was clear.If it were not for Kairi Patel, Harvey would not have the right to be protected by her.That said, Harvey did not mind at all after seeing the look on her face.After all, Kairi already said that this was just to set up bait.It was good that Aliya acted this way because of it.At the same time, Harvey curiously looked at the roof of the place. A hint of murderous intent was neatly hidden in that direction, but it still could not escape him.He casually started to write again without saying a word.Leona quickly came to her senses befor
Without a second thought, Aliya Patel felt she should do her best.She needed to show her true worth in front of Kairi Patel.After all, she was going to make a strong comeback!Crack!Aliya instantly snapped the gentleman’s legs before she coldly chuckled.“If the Faceless Group were actually capable, they wouldn’t have run away from the city six years ago!“Six years have passed, and you people are still as useless as usual!“Tell Nameless to keep himself clean!“When I’m in a good mood, I’ll cut his head off and send it to M’lady as a trophy!”Then, Aliya kicked the gentleman out of the front gate.What a dominant sight.At the same time, she pridefully glanced at Harvey York as if he was a small fry who could not achieve strength of that caliber even if he tried.“Are people here this ignorant nowadays?“Do you think you’re impressive just because you learned some lame kung fu?“No wonder the country’s been constantly ridiculed!”A disdainful tone was heard.The til
