This was a part of Buckwood’s business, a tourist centre.Buckwood Tower was primarily the landmark building of Buckwood.There was a shopping centre located at a lower level of Buckwood Tower, all of the world renowned luxury items were sold there.Once they had ridden the elevator for a hundred floors and got to the top, there was the tallest revolving restaurant in Buckwood.The walls around the restaurant were all transparent, anyone could see the full expanse of Buckwood just by sitting there.Besides, all the chefs here had three Michelin stars. They all had a high worth, their cooking skills were extraordinary.It would easily cost more than thousands of dollars just for a meal here.Most importantly, people would need to make appointments to eat here. Ordinary people could not even book a spot there.Sometimes, the official website would be open for appointments, the seats would all be fully booked within a minute.People that dine here were some of the most wealthy bu
Naturally, the waiters thought that both of them wanted to dine here.Harvey York shook his head.“I don’t have a reservation, I’m not here to dine either.“I’d like to reserve the entire restaurant for the day after tomorrow.”Xynthia Zimmer’s body trembled, she looked at Harvey like she was in love.‘My brother-in-law is so handsome. No, he is so grand!‘He could book a place like this without even asking for the price!’“Sir, you may not know about our restaurant policies. You need to have an online reservation a month prior to be able to have a spot in the restaurant, and we do not provide charter services,” the waiter explained patiently.Harvey frowned and said, “Do you not understand me? I need the entire place for the day after tomorrow.”At that moment, Harvey was wearing cheap store-bought goods. He did not look like a wealthy person at all.The waiters sized him up and their expressions changed.“Sir, this isn’t a place for you to cause a ruckus! Do you know how m
Harry Zapata and his family, was a third-class family in Buckwood.The Zapata family relied on establishing restaurants to survive. When their business froze over a few years ago, they had gotten new investments from Harvey York.Then the Zapata family was secretly siding with Harvey after that and dealt with quite a few other competitors in the same industry.Now, they had almost no competitors when they stood at the top of the food industry in Buckwood.After Prince York had recently made a strong return, and the Zapata family had offered more than half of the shares. They also had rebranded their business under Sky Corporation’s name.But they were only holding the shares in Sky Corporation, it did not affect the business of the Zapata family.The assets of the Zapata family were only mediocre after all, Sky Corporation could not be bothered about it at that moment.But with the support of the powerhouse like Sky Corporation, the Zapata family were as powerful as them. Thus,
Noticing the change in Harvey’s expression, Xynthia, who knew how scary he could be when angered, quickly mediated the situation and hurriedly said, “It’s okay. It was just a few words, so let’s ignore them.”“Don’t forget, we’re here to make a reservation.”Xynthia shifted her gaze to Harry Zapata. “Senior, we wish to reserve the whole place the day after tomorrow. Do you think it’s possible?”Although she herself was full of anger, she held it in because of her brother-in-law.Harry sized Xynthia up and snickered. “No. Our rule is guests must make reservations at least a month earlier. Plus, we don’t allow anyone to book the entire place.”Harvey cut in, “You’ll allow if I say so. I’ll give you a hundred and fifty million dollars to let us book the whole place.”Harry cackled loudly. “Seems you’re pretty loaded, huh?”He spat on the ground and added, “But I don’t need that filthy money of yours!”“Keep your eyes open wide! From now onwards our restaurant will have an extra ru
Under their ridicule, Xynthia Zimmer went red with shame.She couldn’t help tugging at her brother-in-law’s shirt and whispered, “Brother-in-law, let’s just go and book somewhere else!”“I want it to be here. I like this place.” Harvey replied. “Since the Zapatas don’t want to serve me, then we’ll simply change hosts.” “Ha ha ha! Okay, we’ll wait and see. There’s three minutes left.”Harry made a show of studying his watch on purpose, his face filled with open mockery. “One minute left…”As he continued parading his arrogance, the door to the elevator slid open.A few men in pristine suits strode toward Harvey and addressed him with utmost respect. “Mr. York. From today onwards, we’ll be running the Spinning Restaurant. We’ll make sure your reservation for the day after tomorrow is done efficiently!”Everyone took in the scene with stunned shock, utterly baffled.Xynthia was so astonished, her whole body shook.Did Brother-in-law really achieve what he wanted?How was that
The smartly-dressed men tagged submissively behind Harvey York, their heads sinking into deep bows. “M-Mr. York…”“According to Secretary Xavier’s instructions, from today onwards this restaurant will be directly run by Sky Corporation. Do you have any orders for me, sir?”“There’s no need to change the workers or the rules here. Well, except that one rule where you need to pay a hundred and half a million dollars to book the entire place…” Harvey tossed his card and continued, “I want to book this whole venue on the day after tomorrow for a birthday dinner. Remember to decorate the place nicely.”The temporary person-in-charge caught Harvey’s black card with shaky hands.Initially he had been doubtful, but now he’s as certain as ever.This is the man from the legend!Yet seeing how this man always kept a low profile, the temporary person-in-charge didn’t dare to address him with the name that all of Buckwood treated with utmost awe and respect.Since Harvey wanted to pay with t
Without even looking at her, Harvey York said, “Excuse me, I’m here to buy a house.”“What? You’re here to buy a house?” The real estate agent began sizing Harvey up with her eyes.She thought her ears were having problems.Apart from the fact that a young and pretty girl was tagging behind him, this man didn’t look like someone who could afford the properties here.She took in a deep breath and said with a serious tone, “Sir, do you know how much the estates here cost? Our designed houses are at least thirty-thousand dollars per square meter.”“Plus, our property sizes range from at minimum five hundred square metres. Any of them costs at least fifteen million dollars!”“Are you sure you’re really here to buy a house?”Harvey nodded nonchalantly. He was already reading the details and information of the houses on display.Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t stand the real estate agent’s arrogance and blurted, “Didn’t we say we’re here to buy a house? Stop talking nonsense already, won’t yo
Despite her complicated emotions, Tara felt more excited than ever.The reason she had been so determined to work hard was so that she could one day stand before Harvey York and tell him:You looked down on me before. Now, I’m standing at a level you can’t even climb up to!Even when three years had passed after graduation, she never had the chance to do so. Who knew the opportunity would come by knocking today!“My old batch mate, when did you come to Buckwood?”Tara Lewis scrutinized Harvey York from top to bottom as she asked.Harvey replied, “Half a month ago…” “After graduating for so long, I’ve been hearing a lot of strange rumours. It seems that you’re now a live-in son-in-law for a second-class family from Niumhi. Is that true?”“And now, you’re here in Buckwood? Is it because they don’t want you anymore? Are you here to look for another rich woman who would feed you?”“Now that I think about it, I was quite dumb to even confess to you back in college!”“Are you sing
None of the elites from Earth Hall had a problem with Wenzel's words. They all kneeled on the ground and said, "We understand the gravity of our crimes. We accept our punishment!"Meanwhile, Silvan's eye twitched as he forced a smile. "You're mistaken, Mayor! You've been away and didn't return in the past decade. You probably don't know what's happening in Grand City. Please listen to my explanation. I'm sure you'll be happy with it."Silvan was no fool. He knew very well that tonight, he might be made an example of if he wasn't careful. He had no choice but to choose to surrender so that he wouldn't be killed with one slap.Harvey said nothing but simply looked at what was happening without much interest. The others might be afraid of Wenzel, but he didn't feel anything."Grand City's current situation? Isn't it just someone wanting to hijack my authority while I'm away?" Wenzel said softly, but his words were frightening. "If I return any later, would you have a new mayor already
Rumble…The gigantic helicopter slowly landed on a platform right outside the entrance of the Foster Residence. The door slid open, and dozens of men in white robes walked out. Their faces were cold, as if they were machines or puppets. When they walked out, it was difficult to tell if they were even humans.Among the group, several men and women wearing masks could be seen among the men. While they weren't that eye-catching, they seemed to be surrounded by a formless, subtle aura of awe.Harvey gave them a look, and he could tell these men and women were extremely powerful. They were all elites at the level of True Warriors. All he could say was that Grand City was indeed very well established.A woman wearing Givenchy's exclusive collection and frameless glasses slowly walked out before standing aside, making way for a middle-aged man wearing a traditional garb. The man had a powerful figure and a handsome face. The outfit he was wearing was quite old, with a few patches here and
"Forget being on your knees and begging me, you're even threatening me," Harvey patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree. "Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?""If you do, you wouldn't be wasting your breath now!" Silvan said with a cold smile, his expression brutal. "I'm warning you… You had better return the Absolute Decree to me in one piece, then kneel and beg for forgiveness and offer Tina to me. Then, maybe things will end here. Otherwise, you're going to pay for your mistake your entire life! At that time, not only you… Even those who stand with you will have to pay a price you can't even imagine!"Silvan had been given an order to take Tina away no matter what. That was his first aim.Of course, he couldn't simply let the part where he was humiliated be. He would get his revenge one way or another.Harvey smiled. "Really, now. Since you sound so confident, just bring it on. Let's see if your face is harder, or the Absolute Decree is harder…"When Silvan s
"That's for me to know and for you to find out. If you're not going to make a choice soon, I'm going to do that for you." Harvey extended his hand and patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree.Silvan's eyes narrowed. Only at this time did he realize why Dan had forced him to make his move even if he had to spend that precious one chance. The way Harvey did things was simply too overbearing and couldn't be prepared for."Put down the Absolute Decree!""What you're doing is forbidden in Grand City!""This is outrageous!"All the Earth Hall elites yelled, furious.Alexei used this chance to get closer to Harvey and whispered, "Big bro, you should pay more respect to the Absolute Decree. If you keep this up, you might anger all Seven Predecessors if you're not careful."Silvan smiled coldly. "You hear that, Harvey? You humiliated Grand City by stealing the Absolute Decree. You're in big trouble now."Harvey smiled. "You don't have to worry whether I'm in trouble or not. You
"No one can say that I won't be the future mayor of Grand City. As long as I have the possibility of becoming the mayor, what you do know is insubordination!" Harvey sneered. "Are you brave enough to touch me?""Really now?" Silvan snapped, his face frosty. "Do you think I haven't prepared anything before coming here?"Silvan took out a badge made of a special material, flashing it in front of Harvey. "The Absolute Decree! While it can only be used once, it will allow anyone to enter any place within Grand City! I think this is the perfect place to use this. Forget about the fact that you're not even the scion of Grand City just yet. Even if you are, you need to obey the Absolute Decree!"He waved his hand and commanded, "Alright! Go and get our target!"Whoosh!Before anyone from Earth Hall could move, Harvey took a step and immediately appeared right in front of Silvan. Before Silvan could react, Harvey slapped his face. Slap!The slap was loud, and it was powerful enough t
A simple sentence seemed to contain an endless amount of murderous intention, putting all the elites from the Earth Hall on their guard. Silvan's face became terrifyingly dark."I know you're powerful, Harvey. You crushed the Origin Fist's Mark and even defeated all the Island Nation's six schools in the past. There's no mistake that you're a true warrior. But think through this clearly. There are so many of us here, can you defeat us? Even if you can, what if the three halls combined forces? What if all 100,000 of Grand City's elites attacked?"I'm advising you here right now because I have some respect for your role as the Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance. But if you still refuse to listen and want to force your way, we don't mind doing it until the end. You can try and attack any of us here. Let's see if the thousands of elites from the three halls will attack, and how many of us can you actually kill!" Silvan's handsome face turned brutal.If it was someone
However, Silvan couldn't simply leave like this or surrender. He gritted his teeth and instantly pulled out a gun from his waist. After disengaging the safety, he pointed at Harvey and said coldly, "I'm not here to waste my breath with you, Harvey. Take Tina here. I'll give you one minute. Otherwise, don't blame me for being callous! While you are indeed quite powerful, I trust that you know the people around you aren't that powerful!"36 men in black robes took a step forward. The weapons in their hands were not only aimed at Harvey, but also on Alexei and the rest.Harvey narrowed his eyes and smiled. "I do have the Tina that you're looking for, but I saved her out of the generosity of my heart as she was being pursued. However, something interesting about me is that when I save someone, I'll make sure to go all the way. Since she's now with me, I naturally need to ensure her safety."You can take her away. You can even put her in your prison. However, I need you to provide me w
Harvey played with the umbrella in his hand and said curiously, "You're with Dan?"When Silvan heard that, he said coldly, "Mr. Representative, do I need to repeat myself? I am Silvan of the Earth Hall. Now that I'm here, I am the warrant from Earth Hall as well as Grand City's law. And when I act, all will obey my orders. Even the Seven Families will cooperate with me without delay. Understand?"Harvey smiled. "And if I can't understand?"Silvan simply raised his hands.Clack! Clack!All 36 men in the black robes took out unique firearms and disengaged the safety, aiming in Harvey's direction."These weapons are specialized firearms Country A created against martial arts elites. Their bullets are created from toxins that could deal with True Warriors that Grand City has perfected. The ones with weapons are trained elites who with god-like accuracy and an iron will. If all 36 of them pull the trigger at the same time, even a living legend who has reached the level of uniting Man
Grand City looked quite mysterious under the cover of the night. The skies above were covered in dark clouds, with flashes of lightning visible occasionally—it was dazzling.Just when the butler of the Foster Residence was about to tell the staff to secure the gates for the night, sounds of car engines could be heard approaching from afar. Bright headlights swept over, and the staff instinctively narrowed their eyes. Eighteen Land Rover Defenders headed straight to the residence, surrounded by an unspeakable force. Thanks to the rain, one couldn't clearly see the figures within.However, each of the cars had red car plates, which was quite shocking to those in the know.It was Grand City's Purgatory Hall!The three halls of Grand City were the three institutions created for the city. The Heaven Hall was responsible for defense, the Earth Hall covered law enforcement, while the Purgatory Hall had dominion over execution.It could be said that among the Three Halls, while the Eart
