Harvey York spoke calmly…But his words were utterly shocking to everyone else.The father and daughter burst out in anger!How arrogant!Judging from the Foster family’s reputation, nobody would dare to act so high and mighty before them!Harvey must have had a death wish!He was looking for his death!“Repeat it, I dare you!Brayan Foster’s expression instantly turned dark.‘He wants the head of the Foster family to kneel?!‘What is he thinking?!‘Who gave him the nerve?!‘How dare he?!“You bastard!Brayan glared vengefully.“Who even are you to ask me of that?!“Can you even accept me kneeling in front of you?!“Are you not scared?!”Watson Braff quickly tried to mediate the situation after realizing the situation escalated. After all, he was the one who brought Brayan and Amora here.“Mr. Brayan, Harvey, we’re all friends here, right?“Let’s just talk it out for my sake! There’s no need to be this reckless!Naturally, Watson did not know what had transpired…
“What do you mean?” exclaimed Brayan Foster coldly.“Harvey’s just taking advantage of us, thinking he’s actually that impressive!“Why would you even speak for someone like that?”Watson Braff froze. He could not picture Harvey York matching that description in the first place.Soren Braff, who had remained quiet the entire time, finally put his cup down with a smile.“Not much happened anyway.“Harvey wanted to treat him out of kindness, yet he was chased out of the house while treated like a con man.“The secretary, Charlize, was also quite the good person. She brought an entire group of people to the Fortune Hall for Harvey, then tried to smash up the shop as soon as she failed.“Ms. Amora too. She used Vaughn Thompson against Harvey without hesitation.“Mr. Brayan even tried using the Braff family to take down Harvey today…“It’s nothing much…”Watson’s face turned dark instantly.Brayan and Amora Foster’s expressions changed. They did not expect Soren to expose them j
With Watson Braff’s persuasion, Brayan Foster and Amora Foster left with wretched expressions.Brayan had never endured such humiliation in his entire life.Amora took a deep breath.“Harvey York doesn’t even respect us, Father!” she exclaimed with a horrible expression.“Are we really going to kneel before his doorstep for five days?“We’ve contacted every geomancy expert in the country, but none are as reliable as him!“Without him, I’m afraid we won’t be able to solve your problem…“What do we do now?!”Brayan’s face darkened when he spoke after a long while.“We can only rely on ourselves now…“Use everything we can in the city.“Get Harvey’s woman here.“Remember, do not harm her.“Our goal is to force Harvey’s hand.“When I recover…”Brayan’s glare felt like a sharp blade. There was nothing else to be said anymore.***At the Zimmer Enterprise building, Mandy Zimmer was still dealing with the company’s issues.The problem with the Golden Sands was no better, but
Mandy Zimmer frowned.“What’s the condition?”“You know the answer yourself,” replied Amora Foster.“We’ve made such big strides just for that one thing since the beginning.“Get Harvey to deal with my father’s problem.“You, of all people, can convince him to do that, right?”Mandy’s face turned dark before heaving a sigh.“I’ll be honest with you, Ms. Amora! The contract’s extremely tempting to me!“I really do want it!“But I just can’t accept the condition.“I was the one who brought Harvey to the Ostrane Five.“But now, I don’t think I can do that again.“Other than preventing him from being humiliated again, you’re simply not worth it!”“Not worth it?Amora smiled faintly.“I’m asking you this one last time.“Are you signing the contract or not?“Just tell it to me straight. Stop beating around the bush.”“I won’t sign it!” exclaimed Mandy while shaking her head.Amora let out a cold chuckle.“Even with a hundred and fifty million dollars on the line?”“Right
Mandy Zimmer took a deep breath.“This is the difference between us!“You don’t care about that! But I do!”“That’s why you’re such a failure! You’re the head of the ninth branch, yet you’re constantly being toyed by the higher-ups!“You’re naive!Amora Foster had her opinions about Mandy.“I’m asking you one last time. Are you calling him or not?”“I will not!” Mandy replied slowly.“Not only that, I’ll give a fair statement to your family about this!”Slap!Amora slammed Mandy onto the table with another slap across the face.“In three minutes, I have no choice but to go further!”Amora clapped her hands.Two fierce men took off their suits with wretched chuckles.A few others started setting up their cameras. Their actions needed absolutely no explanation!“You’re shameless, Amora!”Mandy trembled. She did not expect Amora to be capable of doing such a thing.“I’m shameless?Amora chuckled with a twisted expression.“I was being nice, yet you didn’t even respect m
“Let her go!”“Let Ms. Amora go!”The fierce men in suits charged forward.Some had firearms with safeties off while pointed at Harvey York.Others tried to snatch Amora Foster away but could not find a good angle.The atmosphere tensed up instantly. A fight was imminent.Harvey would never let these people get an opportunity to take action after all.The experts who got closer were immediately sent flying after getting slapped. Their faces were clearly swollen when they fell flat to the ground.“Let her go, Harvey!“You’re dead if you don’t!”Charlize pulled out her firearm before pointing it toward Harvey.Bam!Harvey exerted more force on his foot, making Amora’s face closer to the ground.Then, he calmly glanced at the people around him.“Step down, or your lady gets it!”The fierce men looked at each other. They wanted to save Amora but could not help but hesitate after seeing Harvey’s skill.Amora was already calm at this moment. She coldly chuckled while complete
Mandy Zimmer felt sluggish after seeing such a ruthless and decisive woman.Harvey York, on the other hand, was feeling quite impressed.Not only was Amora ruthless to others, but she was even more so to herself.People like that were only destined to rise to power.“I see your sincerity now…Harvey slowly walked toward Amora before fixing her arms back with a gentle smile.“It’s simple for me to deal with your father’s curse.“That said, no matter how generous I am, I can’t just do that for free after everything you two have done to me, right?”Amora showed mixed emotions before taking a deep breath.“Name anything you want, Master York!”Harvey pulled out three fingers.“I have three simple conditions.“Number one, I want Brayan to go into hiding after he’s treated. I don’t want to see him in every possible industry there is.“Number two, I want half of the Foster family’s resources, including riches and connections…”Amora’s expression changed.“Do you want to tear th
Amora Foster finally closed her mouth.A sense of loyalty immediately replaced the vengeance against Harvey York. She decided to go down the same path with him till the bitter end.“Thank you for trusting me, Master York!” she exclaimed exhilarated.“Then again, I don’t think I have enough power to convince the entire family…“Just like you said, I’m afraid the family won’t support my improper rise.”Harvey patted Amora’s face with a smile.“Don’t forget, I’m the city’s best geomancy expert.“You’re destined to be in a high position.“Be confident in yourself.“Go back and talk to your father.“Tell him to listen to you if he wants to live the rest of his life in glory and riches.“This’ll be beneficial for all three of us.”Amora decisively waved her hand, completely ignoring her injuries.“Don’t worry, Sir York!“I won’t let my major shareholder be disappointed!”Then, she turned around and left.As expected from a ruthless person like her.Mandy Zimmer was shocked w
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
