Harvey York smiled.“I wouldn’t say that.“We’ve had our moments with the top ten families.“Some members were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. It’s only natural for them to be a little cocky.“Then again, at least they still have a bottom line.”“A bottom line?”Kairi Patel let out a cold chuckle.“You don’t understand these people, Sir York. For them, the bottom line is just a line to be broken through.“With enough benefits, they can surely disgust you with their actions.“For example, Blaine…”Harvey’s gaze turned dark after hearing that name.Out of all the princes and young masters, he was the most outstanding.That said, his ambition was so strong that he simply could not contain himself.Evermore, America and the Island Nations were all deeply connected with him.If Damon John rose to power, Blaine John would take control over Golden Sands…The entire country would be in deep trouble if that were the case.Harvey heaved a sigh.“I managed to deal with
Kairi Patel looked profoundly when she saw Harvey York spacing out.“What is it?” she asked with a smile while handing over a bottle of soda.“Thinking about your ex-wife?”Harvey returned to his senses before putting on a frown.“What about it?”“If that’s the case, you can invite her here anyway.“If she sees you crushing a top-rated family before everyone’s eyes…“I’m sure she’ll start to regret divorcing you, right?” said Kairi playfully.Harvey felt utterly speechless.“You’re joking.“I’m not arrogant enough to think I can crush a top-rated family just like that.“At this point, combat strength is still a crucial factor.“But the current situation, our luck, and the enemy’s plans are the most important.“How can we be so sure to crush the John family after knowing that?“Maybe we’re being led into a dangerous trap…”Kairi smiled before pondering about the situation.“Right. Do you still remember Ibuki Masato?”“I do.Harvey nodded.“I’ve been waiting to see if
Harvey York could not decline Kairi Patel’s kindness.He kept the split bead with a smile before changing the subject.The car drove on a little further.It was just about to enter the residence’s parking lot.Harvey’s eyes suddenly twitched when he screamed, “Stop the car!“Hurry!”Almost simultaneously, a truck carrying alcohol tilted to the side.If not for the driver, everyone in the Lexus would have turned into minced meat by now.The sudden stop immediately halted the parking lot’s traffic.“Go! Save the people!” exclaimed Kairi, afraid that something had happened to the driver.Harvey waved his hand.“No need. There’s nobody inside.“They’ve already left.”The doors of the luxury cars behind were kicked open.A dozen robed Islanders came out.A five-foot-seven man was leading the group. He was considered a tall and handsome man in the Island Nations.The man showed utter elegance with every step he took.He reached in front of the Lexus before knocking on the wi
Kairi Patel was just about to say something…But Harvey York waved his hand to stop her before calmly walking in front of Ibuki Masato with a smile.“You want me to kneel?“Do you even think you have the rights?“You and your people are delusional!Harvey glanced at the Islanders with their phones out.Their eyes frantically twitched. They seemed a little awkward after realizing that.After all, they knew exactly who they were dealing with.The prince of South Light, the representative of the country’s Martial Arts Alliance, the young master of Longmen himself…Every single one of these identities had been constantly disrespecting the Islanders before.Other than prominent figures like Ibuki from the Island Nations…The small fries would probably kneel instantly after realizing Harvey’s identity.“Do you think I wouldn’t dare go against you people on an occasion like this?”Harvey glared coldly.Ibuki smiled.“Of course, I wouldn’t even assume.“But don’t forget. Diplom
Harvey York’s soft tap was enough to change Ibuki Masato’s expression.He was a compelling martial artist…But as soon as Harvey tapped him, he felt a sharp pain as his shoulder sank instantly.It dislocated.Ibuki did not expect Harvey to dislocate his shoulder that easily without taking the choices offered to him.‘This bastard!’Harvey ignored the look on Ibuki’s face when he leaned closer.“You’re an expert martial artist yourself.“If you weren’t this cocky…“You wouldn’t have to deal with this either.”Ibuki gritted his teeth.“How dare you sneak up on me like this…?”In his mind, he would not have been hit by something like this if Harvey had not played dirty.Harvey gave a chuckle.“Does it matter?“I put a bit of my aura into your shoulder. It might just get crippled if you don’t relocate the bones soon…“How is the young master of the Masato family going to take control with one less working arm?“How are you supposed to be the best of the younger generation?
“He had planned for all this.“He only has one goal…“To prevent me from attending the ceremony.”Harvey York shrugged.“This means that the ceremony’s nothing but a blatant trap!”Kairi Patel smiled.“He’s gone now, though.“The mighty young master of the Masato family would be completely disgraced if his people knew about this incident, wouldn’t he?”Harvey froze before frowning. He figured that something was wrong.It seemed like a plan to stop him from attending the ceremony…But why would a young master of the Five Royal Families use such an underhanded tactic for something like this?The Islanders would use everything in their power to accomplish their goals…But there was no need for such a prominent figure to do all that dirty work.While Harvey pondered the situation, the car had passed a few checkpoints before arriving in front of the John family’s residence.When the car was parked, a servant quickly came over to open the car door.Kairi was fixing her makeup
“Hell’s Poison?Harvey York’s expression changed.“The liquor got laced?”Kairi Patel kept changing expressions.“Not just that. That’s the Patel family’s formula.“You should know my title by now.“The Hell’s Poison is what made me famous.“The poison doesn’t taste any different compared to ordinary alcohol.“But even with a single sip, anyone would croak after passing out for an entire week.“Other than me, nobody else can cure it!“Back then, I stopped making more of this since the production harmed me more than it should’ve.“Why did it show up here…?”Kairi looked strange.“What an interesting man Ibuki is…” said Harvey.“He distracted us just to slip in the Hell’s Poison.“The poison is what made you famous too…“If the John family finds out about this, then that’ll be a direct challenge from the Patel family!“More importantly, this is solid evidence!“With this, it’d only be natural for the John family to make things more complicated for the Patel family…“Wh
Kairi Patel ordered the driver to roll the window down before he coldly glared at Capri John coming over.“Something wrong, Director Capri?“You should know that this is Madam Kairi’s car, right?”Capri flicked her hair before smiling at the driver.“You’re the driver, right?“Send a word for me.“The Golden Sands Police Station respects Madam Kairi.“But we just received word.“To rise to power, Madam Kairi prepared a bottle of poisoned liquor for Mr. Damon.“For Mr. Damon’s safety and Madam Kairi’s reputation…“The police need to take action!“After all, the innocent will remain so until proven guilty!“Right! I also should tell you something else!“The search warrant has already been prepared!”Capri pulled out a piece of paper with a proud look.The paper was prepared last night and stamped this morning.Everything was prepared for this very moment!If Kairi were not the second-in-command, such things would not be needed!“You’re pretty quick, Capri!”Kairi got o
