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
Mandy was worried. If she knew that all this was going to happen, she wouldn’t have brought Harvey with her.Without a second thought, she quickly ran and held Harvey’s hand.“Forget it, Harvey. Lift him up and apologize to him. We’ll just pay a little more, is all.”The man chuckled wretchedly.“Money isn’t enough, pretty lady!“I heard you have a sister as well! The conditions are different now!“I want you and your sister to sleep with me for a month! If not…”Crack!Harvey instantly snapped the man’s wrist by stepping on it.A loud crack resounded; the man rolled on the ground, wailing like a dying pig.The horrifying sight turned the entire place dead silent.Nobody expected Harvey to be so reckless.The incident turned into an assault almost instantly.Harvey would have to live his life behind bars if he wasn’t careful.Mandy and the Zimmer Enterprise would probably have to pay a great price just to deal with the situation.Simply put, the entire situation was made
Before Harvey could say anything, the man had already fanned the flames.“He did this, Inspector Braff!“I was just asking for a reasonable compensation for my dad’s death!“It’s already bad enough that he’s not paying! He even slapped me and broke my hand!“He said that the city belongs to him!“You need to help us ordinary citizens, Inspector Braff!“We’re relying on you!“You’re our living legend, after all!”After hearing the man’s distorted truth, Inspector Braff’s face darkened. He squinted at Harvey.“Are you a gangster, kid? You’re pretty cocky, aren’t you?“How dare you assault and harm this man! You’d have to be locked behind bars for at least three years with any of these charges!“You’re in the hospital right now! Your sentence will surely increase because of this!“That said, I’ll make sure to speak up for you if you stop this instant.”Inspector Braff pulled out a pair of silver handcuffs, and threw it right in front of Harvey.The man and his family grinned
Inspector Braff frowned, then waved his hand. Another inspector jogged to check the surveillance footage soon after.After a moment, he returned with a horrible expression and whispered something into Inspector Braff’s ear.Inspector Braff pondered the situation before sighing.“I really want to believe you, kid…“But it’s a shame. The footage didn’t do anything to help.“You don’t have proof.“I’m sorry, but you’ll have to come with us!”Mandy’s expression changed after hearing those words.“Inspector Braff! I can prove what Harvey said was true!“Not only did Mr. Lee ask for fifteen million dollars worth of compensation, he even demanded me to sleep with him for a night…”Mandy’s face was bright red, but she still explained the situation for Harvey’s sake.“Harvey stood up for me. You should forgive him.”Inspector Braff froze, then sighed again.“I’d really like to believe you.“But even if what you’re saying is true… Him saying that to you during a loved one’s death c
“That’s him,” Harvey replied.“If he’s not enough, then call Watson instead.“If he’s not enough, then call Eliel.“I’m sure they’ll guarantee I won’t do anything reckless or resist arrest in any way.“How does that sound?”Harvey shrugged casually.Inspector Braff and the other inspectors looked thunderstruck. They didn’t think Harvey would just name three people who could easily suppress them like that. Inspector Braff knew Harvey had a deep connection with the people he named without even making any phone calls.“What? You didn’t bring your phone?”Harvey smiled, and took his phone out.“Why don’t you have a listen here?”Slap!Inspector Braff took a deep breath before stepping forward and slapping the phone out of Harvey’s hand.“I don’t care who you are, nor do I care who you have supporting you!“But I’ll arrest the king himself if I have to!“Nobody gets to trample on the country’s dignity!“There’s still time if you come with me right now! If not, you’d have to
Vaughn had the aura of a rich playboy, but his white uniform made him appear quite refreshing.More importantly, the badge on his shoulder had one more line compared to Soren’s.Soren instinctively looked over, and his face darkened. “Inspection Division of the Royal Police Station?”Everyone looked at each other after hearing the unfamiliar name.The inspectors around Soren came to their senses, their expressions changing instantly.People from the Inspection Division had powerful authority. The division would usually remain extremely discreet. Their existence was almost never known.However, they had the right to govern the directors of each city’s police station. Simply put, they were the higher-ups breathing down the directors’ necks.“Good eye.”Vaughn casually pulled out his pitch-black credentials, and threw it in front of Soren.“It’s a good thing that you know.“Director Braff. For the sake of your massive family business and respect towards the Thompson family, I’
