Ernie Surrey was surprised when he heard Winston Osborne refer to him as Young Master.He reached out and lifted Winston’s chin with a smile.“So, you do know my name?“What a shame that it’s all a little too late now.“My woman was toyed with and beaten up! Someone needs to pay for the consequences!”At this point, Winston had utterly given up.He kept trembling to the point where his legs were about to give in.“Please, Young Master Ernie! It’s all because of Lando’s ignorance!“Deal with him however you please!“We have nothing to do with this!”Aliza Howell and the other women quickly nodded.“Looks like young people nowadays are clueless, huh?”Ernie heaved a sigh before slapping Winston to the ground.“Do you need me to remind you again?“You have no say in this! I do!“I am the king here! Do you understand me?!Ernie lit up a long and thin cigar before taking a huff.“Right. You mentioned Boden just now.“Call him! See if he’s willing to beg for your life!“If
Aliza Howell could not help but scream at the sight. She was getting goosebumps all over her body.She quickly stumbled back before looking at Winston Osborne with pitiful eyes.It was a shame. The arrogant man looked away as if nothing ever happened.Naturally, he would rather stay alive no matter how disgusting the sight was before him.Aliza’s vision went dark.The boyfriend she looked up to so much was just a coward, after all…Not only that, she was also about to be taken advantage of.Winston turned a blind eye when tears were running down Aliza’s face.Compared to his woman, his life was undoubtedly more important!He could have as many women as he wanted but would not get another life if he lost it!Tap!One of Ernie Surrey’s subordinates turned on the lights.Ernie was just about to take his pants off before seeing Billie Higgs and Judith Pedler standing behind Harvey. He froze before his eyes instantly lit up.It was safe to say that the two were goddesses in the
“Who the hell are you?Ernie Surrey rubbed his swollen face before sternly waving his hand, stopping the fierce men behind him from stepping forward.“I’ll put it this way. In the entirety of the outskirts, nobody dared to touch me before.“You’re the first one, and you’ll be the only one after this.“It’d be easy for me to trample all over you, but I should at least get to know you first so I can prepare a grave for you, right?”Ernie was an impressive man…But he was not foolish either.He knew that people who dared to go against him would surely have tricks up their sleeve.Either that or Harvey York was just someone with a screw loose.No matter how Ernie looked, Harvey did not seem that way.To prevent going against someone more powerful, Ernie decided that his best way forward was to figure out Harvey’s background.Winston Osborne’s eyes lit up as if he saw an opportunity to escape the situation. He quickly stumbled in front of Ernie before slamming his knees to the gr
“It really is our first time seeing this guy, Young Master Ernie!“We don’t even know each other!”“That’s right! We have nothing to do with him!”Winston Osborne and the others were utterly shocked after seeing Harvey York slap Ernie Surrey twice.They quickly broke off from Harvey, afraid they also would get dragged down.“Right! Do whatever you want with this bastard!” exclaimed Aliza Howell.“He’s been trying to get together with someone way out of his league!“Just take care of him as you please!”Even Lando Miller crawled out of Harvey’s way as he trembled in fear. If things were to escalate, he would also be taken out.Those people knew that for the princes and young masters, their reputation was much more important than their very lives!Not only would Harvey completely ruin everyone’s chances of turning the tables…He would completely infuriate Ernie as well.Simply put, he would be looking for his death!Why would he do something like this instead of just ending
“Kneel and apologize already!“Do you really want to wait till you screw everything up?!”Winston Osborne looked bitter. He was not worried about Harvey York at all…But the two goddesses.After all, he had been watching those two for a while but had not gotten his hands on them.“That’s right! You wouldn’t want Billie to die with you now, right?!”“When else are you going to kneel if not now?!”“Please! Stop showing off already!”The group desperately tried to convince Harvey, but he simply could not be bothered.He waved his hand before standing in front of Billie Higgs and Judith Pedler.“I haven’t seen a lot of princes and young masters in my life, but I’ve seen enough.“You’re not that impressive compared to the rest of them.“Even the ones better than you were all taken care of.“Who do you think you are?“Can you even handle the consequences if I decide to go against you?”Harvey showed a righteous look.Winston and the others were shaking in anger after hearing
The entire room was dead silent.Besides Harvey York, only Ernie Surrey and his subordinates remained inside.They were sizing up Harvey with playful expressions.Nobody in the outskirts would dare to go up against people of their caliber.It would not be exciting for them to crush any random person…But an ignorant fool from a big city like Harvey was different.“Drink up as much as you want.“You might not get another chance after this.One of Ernie’s subordinates pulled out a revolver before leaving a single bullet inside. Then, he spun the cylinder around and threw the revolver on the marble table in front of Harvey.Harvey was expected to play the Russian Roulette.“I’m warning you, kid.“Kneel and beg for mercy, and you might just be spared.“If you keep whining, you probably won’t even know how you end up dead.“It’s always better to survive instead, no?”Camilia and the other women looked down on Harvey disdainfully.They believed that real men could suffer humil
Harvey York picked up the call while completely ignoring the others around him.“Is this Master York? It’s Wildcat. I’m in front of your residence area right now.”A respectful voice was heard.Naturally, Wildcat would not dare show a hint of disrespect to a man who could save Lennon Surrey.“I’m not there yet. I’ll be there soon.”Wildcat froze.“Where are you now? I can fetch you if you’d like.”Harvey thought of something as he glanced at Ernie holding a revolver.“I’m at the Gangnam Outskirts right now. I ran into some trouble. I’ll get there when I’m done.”“The Gangnam Outskirts?“You should know that your problems are the Surrey family’s too!“As long as you say the word, I’ll handle it for you immediately!”Harvey smiled.“There’s no need. There’s someone named Ernie Surrey. He wants to play Russian Roulette with me.“I’ll go after having a round with him.”Wildcat froze in place after hearing that name.“Is he the man with dreadlocks, Master York?”Harvey size
“Family driver?!”Everyone looked at each other before Camilia and the women cackled up a storm.‘He thinks Ernie will explain himself to a driver?‘What a joke!‘What influence does a driver have in such a big family?‘The Surrey family probably has a hundred different drivers already!’Ernie Surrey smiled playfully.“I do want to see which driver would dare go against me!”In just three minutes, frantic footsteps were heard outside.The door was kicked open once again.Almost everyone instinctively looked over before a suited man walked inside.He ignored the others when he quickly walked toward Harvey York with his arms folded.“Are you alright, Master York?”“What do you think?” replied Harvey.Wildcat smiled.“I’m sure a few small fries wouldn’t be able to scratch you!“Don’t worry! I’ll make sure that you’re satisfied with your explanation!Wildcat shifted his gaze toward Ernie, whose expression slightly changed.“You’ve been a little cocky, Young Master Ernie!
Harvey didn't let Coco get off scot-free. Instead, he walked up to her with a blank expression and slapped her directly across the face.Slap!Coco let out a painful cry; she immediately flew backward, slamming into a wall opposite the door with a loud bang.Harvey then took out a wet paper towel to wipe his fingers and said calmly, "Why don't you guess if I'm bold enough to kill you?"Coco held her face as she stumbled to her feet, staring at Harvey with wide eyes. The pain on her face aside, she was filled with disbelief and indescribable fury. She couldn't believe there was someone in Grand City not afraid to move against her and even dared to assault her directly.There was no difference between this and having a death wish!She was the princess of Parkerville! In her own family and among the Seven Families of Grand City, she was already standing at the top of the hierarchy. How could Harvey stand up to her? What leverage did he have against her?"What?!"Tina and the othe
"I'm warning you! You better grovel at her feet right now and slap yourself a hundred times so that this is over! Otherwise, you're going to die a horrible death!" Tina yelled as she bared her teeth at Harvey, as if wanting to shred him into pieces.It was clear that to Tina, since she couldn't do anything to Vaida, she could at least take it out on Harvey, right? She was very familiar with the heirs of the powerful families within Grand City. Harvey was very unfamiliar to her and didn't look like someone important at all.Even Coco was sizing Harvey up from head to toe. "You should know your place," she said coldly. "There's a hierarchy in this world, and there are rules you shouldn't touch. There are also people you shouldn't offend so easily. In other words, when you want to step in for someone else, you should also see just how much strength you have. Otherwise, you might lose your head before you can even do anything."Both sides had completely turned against each other tod
Despite his fear, Alexei finally stood up and yelled at Coco and her entourage. "Senior Vaida is fine! You can't do whatever you want! Do you really think you can act as you please with the Belladonna Cult?!"Harvey shot him a surprised glance. He wasn't expecting Alexei to be courageous enough to speak out like that. Vaida remained silent; she only looked at Coco coldly, as if wanting to see what Coco was going to do next."Who do you think you are, Alexei? Since when do you have any power to decide whether Vaida is sick? Only the doctors are qualified to do that," Coco sneered. "And only the doctors who work for the Parker family, at that. Now, take Vaida to the mental health institution. Stop wasting our time!" Coco presented herself assertively, as if she was going to use this excuse to admit Vaida into the institution.What of the consequences?With Parkerville's influence in Grand City currently, they didn't have to care about the consequences. Before Coco's men could
With an icy demeanor, Vaida said slowly to Coco, "What if I say no?""No?" Coco looked at Vaida as if she didn't know what was good for her. "What right do you have to say no? If you know what's good for you, you'll sell me Port View Restaurant cheap right now! Once my brother takes over, this place will ultimately become mine! Stop treating yourself like you're the owner here."Even the Belladonna Cult thinks you're just a madwoman, and that they should support my brother fully. Who do you think you are now? If it weren't for your father's reputation, everything the Belladonna Cult owned would have been confiscated by the city a long time ago! You’re just a schizophrenic woman… Do you really think you're anyone important?"I'll give you three seconds to get the hell out of the Supreme Chamber! Otherwise, I'm going to teach you a lesson!""I dare you to say that again," Vaida hissed.Her eyes turned even colder."A long time ago, Dan was the one begging my father, kneeling in fr
“However, if it's discovered that you have taken even a single cent from Port View Restaurant… I'm sorry, but I’ll have no choice but to send you to jail.”Vaida extended her finger and slowly mimicked slitting her throat.Upon hearing these words, Tina began to shudder, her face as pale as a sheet.Harvey gave an approving nod. Vaida was efficient and also dealt a powerful emotional blow. She stood on moral high ground, what she did was enough to infuriate Coco. All this while, the Parkers had treated Port View Restaurant as their asset. Coco might even be one of those who embezzled funds from the restaurant. If Vaida sent Tina to prison, this would indeed be very interesting.Tina's face was pale at that moment. She instinctively looked at Coco, trembling as she begged, "Princess Coco…"It was obvious that she believed only Coco could save her now. Coco furrowed her brows, and her expression darkened. She stared coldly at Vaida."No need to audit the accounts. I can tell y
"According to the rules, this place won't have anything to do with you anymore in the future!" Coco said confidently in front of everyone, wanting to shame Vaida publicly.Vaida spat icily, "According to the agreement, only when I can't find my man of destiny within the appointed time will all the Belladonna Cult's assets go to Dan. Unfortunately for you, I have already found him. From that moment onward, everything the cult owns has nothing to do with Dan anymore. Do you understand? But of course, if you think this place doesn't belong to me…"You can call the Seven Families Joint Meeting, and we can discuss this at length. Let's see who owns the Belladonna Cult's assets."Coco's expression turned a little colder after hearing that. However, she retrained her emotions and smiled brilliantly. She knew very well according to Grand City's rules, since Vaida managed to find her man of destiny, Dan would never be able to take over the Belladonna Cult's properties.But what if her man
"Vaida, Grand City is now governed by laws. It's not right to start hitting people here, isn't it?"Just as Tina was about to crawl away, the clacking of high heels came from the entrance. A faint scent of perfume wafted through the air with a somewhat seductive tang.Harvey instinctively looked at the entrance. Elegantly dressed men and women walked in, chatting and laughing. A gorgeous woman in her twenties led the entourage.Not only were her facial features exquisite, but she also had quite a curvaceous physique. There was an air of superiority surrounding her, as if she could easily overshadow everyone else. She was wearing the most fashionable black dress, showcasing her long legs and demonstrating her perfect curves.While this woman wasn't very mature, she was full of charm and allure. To use a more modern term, she was obviously quite the player and skilled at charming men. She was none other than Coco Parker, princess of Parkerville.The moment Tina saw that woman, she
Vaida's slap was direct and ruthless, carrying an indescribable force. In one hit, Tina was instantly struck into a daze as she stumbled unsteadily. A scarlet handprint instantly appeared on her face; she looked disheveled.Tina looked at Vaida in disbelief, her voice trembling. "You hit me? Grand City is a society of law, and you hit me?" Tina couldn't understand why Vaida would hit her at this point. She was just a schizophrenic woman, and she was at the edge of losing control of Belladonna. What made her think she could still act so boldly? Who did Vaida think she was?It was obvious that deep down, Tina had no respect whatsoever for Vaida. In her mind, she could scare Vaida away by just using Coco's name. Coco was the number one princess in Grand City. Meanwhile, Vaida was just a madwoman… What right did Vaida think she had to cross Coco?Tina never expected Vaida to have no fear of Coco. Vaida even slapped her so hard that she almost dropped to the ground.Tina bit her lip
"I also think it's inappropriate to make such a request, but I have no choice. The VIP wants this private room. This is the Supreme Chamber, which represents one's status," Tina said as she narrowed her eyes at Alexei, mockery evident in her gaze."As you know, the Port View Restaurant believes that customers are gods. Now that our gods are here, of course we must accommodate their minor request. Princess Vaida, Mr. Alexei, you're both smart people. You understand that it's not easy for us, either. Can you please move quickly? We still need to clean up this room. If the VIP finds this room dirty, it might be difficult for us to handle.Tina's words right now were pure humiliation, the ones that could make men go berserk. Alexei's expression instantly turned dark.Port View Restaurant was owned by Belladonna Cult. Vaida was the scion of the Belladonna Cult. In other words, this was her turf. It was outrageous for her to be asked to leave when she was halfway through a meal, especia
