Mandy’s heart was beating all over.She didn’t know if those words were considered an invitation for Harvey. If that were to actually happen, she didn’t know if she’d reject his advances or not.In the deepest parts of her heart, she felt hesitant.After all, the two were already divorced. Because of that, there were things they just couldn’t do.Harvey didn’t think too much into it, though.“Right. Don’t worry,” he said, smiling. “I’ll be in the living room. Call me if anything happens.”Harvey then closed the door gently before sitting down in the living room. As soon as he took out his phone, he scrolled through Kairi’s texts.He didn’t realize that Mandy could see the same texts through the surveillance camera with her computer.“Kairi?!”Mandy froze; she didn’t know how to feel.She wasn’t sure if she was jealous or worried, but she figured that Harvey was probably talking to Kairi about what happened the same night.If she went out to question Harvey at this moment, sh
Vaughn smiled calmly before putting his glass down.“You’re right about that. They’ll be taking action today.“I’ve seen Nameless’ plan. It’s perfect.“With such arrangements, I’m sure even ten Harvies wouldn’t be able to go against the experts from the Shindan Way and the Tsuchimikado Family.”Vaughn smiled.Nameless had strong men working for him; not to mention; a mysterious onmyoji from the Island Nations and India’s God of War were supporting him.No matter how impressive Harvey was, what could he do about that? Anyone would perish in the face of a God of War!“Heh, heh, heh! So, you’re saying that Harvey’s dead for sure?”Maisie was excited.“I’ve hated that guy since I first laid eyes on him! He has an aura I despise!“He’s just a damn peasant, yet he doesn’t know how to act humble! He doesn’t realize that he can’t afford to go against people like us, even if he fights for eight different lifetimes!“It’s already bad enough that he doesn’t show us any respect. He even
“What? Did something happen?”Maisie, who had been quite casual, realized something after seeing Vaughn’s face.Vaughn slowly put his phone down. After a long while, he finally spoke.“Just now, Harvey killed the Rakshasa Monks and crippled the Abito Way’s expert!“Even the Shindan Way and the Tsuchimikado Family were completely defeated…“Nameless failed!“We’ve underestimated the live-in son-in-law!”Kensley and Maisie stood up in shock.Even Blaine instinctively sat up straight, frowning.…The next day, Harvey went out to buy Mandy’s favorite breakfast sandwich. Then, he fried a few eggs in the kitchen while humming a tune.After a whole night’s rest, Mandy was in high spirits.The two finished their breakfast. Harvey remembered that Lilian and the others were about to come back, so he wanted to leave before they appeared.If he didn’t, there would be utter chaos again.Having enjoyed a few days of peace and quiet, Harvey really didn’t want to listen to Lilian’s naggi
“What kind of hotshot do you think my mother could be friends with?“If I’m guessing correctly, the one who’s coming must be Aunt Witby.“She’s a local from Mordu. She isn’t that successful, but her ego shows the exact opposite. She’s cut from the same cloth as my mother!“If Mother gets her here, then…”Thinking of Mandy’s predicament, Harvey started to feel a headache.Everything else aside, Aunt Witby’s relationship with Lilian was enough to show how impressive she was.Harvey couldn’t help but shiver when he imagined the two bickering.He shouldn’t stay any longer. He’d suffer if he did.He decided to leave as soon as Mandy was done with her food.As for Ostrane One, he didn’t mind letting Lilian stay there.The place was already Mandy’s, anyway—it was her property. She had all the right to decide how she wanted to use it.Harvey was just about to slip out of the place after the meal.Just then, Mandy’s phone suddenly rang again.She quickly picked up the phone, and he
On the side of the corridor, many people were gathered together. Their eyes were red.They were all tall and strong; some of them had terrifying tattoos on them.They all looked at Maya and the others with fierce glares. Though they were dressed ordinarily, they looked like thugs to Maya and the others.Maya and the executives prayed that everything would go well in the emergency room. If not, the thugs would be enraged and make their lives a living hell.“What happened here? Why is the injured in the emergency room?”The sounds of clacking high heels could be heard. A fashionable woman with a Chanel bag walked over.Her long legs, covered in black stockings, were nothing short of alluring. Her beautiful face could topple entire civilizations.The woman was none other than Mandy herself.Harvey, who had remained discreet, followed closely behind.He frowned as he looked around him, then instinctively looked at his compass. He looked puzzled.Mandy’s appearance had grabbed eve
Mandy froze. “Talk? About what?”“Talk about what?” The man intentionally froze, then screamed to the crowd.“Listen to this! What’s this tone?“While working for the company, my dad got into an accident and was brought into the emergency room!“We’re here talking to her about compensation, but she’s acting all oblivious about it!“Are us workers just ants to you capitalists? Are our lives worth nothing to you?“Don’t we not get a chance to speak after hurting ourselves for your sake?“Aren’t you even going to talk to us? Are we not human to you?“We’ll call the cops on you for this! We’ll get the government involved, too!“We want your entire company bankrupt!”The patients and their families standing not far away glanced at Mandy and the rest, curious. Some people got an idea about the situation, and started gossiping up a storm.Someone even took out their phones to take pictures. After all, the big fuss would no doubt turn into big news.Harvey frowned at the people who
“That’s right! Mr. Lee is the pillar of our family! We all rely on him to survive!“You think you can just get away with thirty thousand dollars? What are you thinking?! “Let me tell you something! Mr. Lee’s in bad shape right now!“If he wasn’t hurt, he could’ve kept working for thirty more years! You think you can just get away with not compensating for that?”Mandy was speechless. It was her first time seeing someone this unreasonable.A higher-up couldn’t hold his anger back any longer, and yelled, “Mr. Lee’s sixty-three years old! Even with the country’s regulations, he can only work until he’s sixty-five. When that happens, he’ll retire! He can’t even work for thirty more years!”Slap!“Stop yapping!”The man took a step forward and slapped the higher-up to the ground.“Why does that matter to you?!“Who do you think you are? How dare you get involved?!“In any case, none of you get to leave unless we have a deal!”Click!Right as Harvey was about to step up, the li
The man froze; he narrowed his eyes as he sized up Harvey.“What? Are you trying to save the damsel in distress? Who are you? Tell me your name!” he exclaimed, cracking his neck threateningly. “Let me see if you have the right to get yourself involved!”“I’m Mandy’s husband,” Harvey replied.“Husband?”The man froze again, then revealed a profound expression.“I know now! You’re the legendary live-in son-in-law!“I heard you’ve never even touched your wife’s hand after being married for three years!“You might as well slam your head to the damn ground for being a man like that!“You’re giving me another chance? Do you have the right? Are you worthy?”The man spat on the ground.“Come on then, you filthy piece of crap! I’ll give you a chance, too! I’ll let you go if you lick this up clean!“If not, you’ll pay your price!“I want your wife to pay for my dad’s life!”The man waved his hand, and his scoundrel-liked family members walked forward.There were some women among th
