The name of the villa district was called Violet District.It was the gathering place for the outskirts’ wealthy people, but they were only considered to be in the middle class.Compared to Eden Mountain’s villa area, this place was completely inferior.The people living here were all from the outskirts’ upper social circle, but they were only barely considered that way.Harvey York arrived at the district before finding the villa through his GPS application on the phone.Judith Pedler had been standing at the front door for the longest time. She quickly came forward with her face completely flushed after seeing Harvey’s arrival.“I thought you wouldn’t come.”Harvey let out a chuckle.“You invited me. Of course, I came.“Happy birthday.”Harvey casually pulled out a box.He naturally would not come empty-handed since it was Judith’s birthday.After what happened in Aenar Temple, Lennon Surrey gave him a small present.Harvey decided to give it away. He had not opened it u
“Hmph! Ms. Kali’s the lady of the Howell family! Why does she look like she’s talking to her Prince Charming?! How shameless!”Aliza Howell held a bottle of soda on the side, showing disdain toward Harvey York.She knew Harvey was boasting using Aria Surrey’s name, disrespecting Alvaro Osborne and Asher Klein back at the auction.But then, she decided to investigate the situation further.Aria was distant and never liked talking to outsiders. She had always been engrossed with martial arts.Harvey must have been lucky enough to be able to cling to her.If that were not the case, the Surrey family would not have been defending someone like him.Even if Aria looked up to Harvey, a kept man like him would have nothing going on for him other than being handsome anyway.She believed Aria would cast him away as soon as she was bored.In her mind, Kali did not need to look up to Harvey like that.Kali was a direct descendant of the Howell family, while Aliza was just a relative.Bu
The place was dead silent when a blonde man in a suit walked inside with his arms crossed. He was about five-foot-nine with golden-rimmed glasses sitting on his tall nose.Four men in white suits were also following behind him. All of them were Westerners with towering builds exuding an unspeakable murderous intent.The students around were so scared that they could not utter a single word while looking at each other.Nobody knew why these people would barge in at such a crucial moment.“It’s you?!“Who let you in?!“Get out of here!”Mrs. Pedler paused before screaming at him.Judith Pedler was showing a confused gaze as well.“Why are you back, Dad?”“Heh! I promised to see you every birthday, my dear!“I would never miss your eighteenth birthday!“After all, now you could inherit the family’s title!The man smiled gently at Judith before glancing at Mrs. Pedler.“You should remember what I told you, Indy.“I promised my daughter would live a normal life before she was
‘The Silver Knight?!’Everyone shuddered after hearing those words.The people in other places around Country H did not know what that name meant…But it was very well-known in the outskirts.After all, the Border Force had been in conflict with the forces led by the Silver Knight. They had been toe-to-toe with every battle they had so far.Both sides had reasons to suppress each other.But after the Head Coach defeated the five strongest countries, it was enough to show the Silver Knight’s charisma and leadership to remain on par with Country H’s forces.“Legends say the Silver Knight, Kyren Pedler, had ancestors from Country H who moved to the Warrior Tribe about a hundred years ago.“The tribe had a horrible life in the beginning, but after countless wars and marriages, they stood their ground in the west of Country H!“The Emperor of the Warrior Tribe is also quite fond of the Silver Knight. Safe to say that of the entire Warrior Tribe, he’s a prominent figure of the upper
Harvey York ignored everyone’s gaze while setting down his cup.“Something wrong?”Judith Pedler quickly approached her father when she saw him going for the person she was eyeing.“What are you doing, Dad? Harvey’s been very good to me! You can’t cause him trouble!”“I’m just keeping an eye on the man who’s treating you well! I should also thank him for handling some of your previous problems!“Why would I cause him trouble in that case?”Kyren Pedler smiled gently at Judith before patting her head.He showed a profound gaze when he glanced at Harvey again.“Right. There is no need to hold back. Let’s all take a seat.”Kyren casually sat in the main seat while ushering Judith there.Judith sat right beside Alvaro Osborne while Harvey sat in the back.Anyone could tell that Kyren was not fond of Harvey at all.Billie Higgs, Aliza Howell, and the others who knew Harvey’s skill were quietly waiting for Harvey to make a fool out of himself.Harvey did not mind the situation.
Everyone trembled after hearing Kyren Pedler’s words.Alvaro Osborne was incredibly exhilarated since he had previously trained in the Border Force.“I heard that the Head Coach himself is a living legend!“You’re a prominent figure who participated in that fight! Have you ever seen the Head Coach fight?”Kyren grinned.“It’s only about five years ago.“I naturally joined the fight since I hadn’t been a marquis long.“Then again, I didn’t see the Head Coach since I wasn’t in the front lines.“But to my knowledge, three out of five dukes of the Warrior Tribe lost against the Head Coach.“One of them even secluded himself after being defeated, claiming that he’d never come back out unless his combat strength progressed.“Judging from this, it should be clear how powerful the Head Coach was.“That’s why Master York can never be as good as a legendary figure like that.“That said, he’s still an extremely prominent figure in the outskirts’ younger generation.“I figured that if
A few Westerners walked out when the car doors opened.The person leading the group sized up Harvey York momentarily.“Mr. Kyren’s asking you to join him.”“Mr. Kyren? The Silver Knight?”Harvey seemed calm. He entered the car without hesitation.Half an hour later, the cars came to the edge of a desert.Hundreds of people stood with their arms folded. Judith Pedler’s father, Kyren Pedler, was in the middle of the crowd.He crossed his arms while looking at the sight before him. His white shirt fluttered in the sandy wind.Behind him, the elderly God of War looked at the sky while pondering something.“Please, Sir York.”A Westerner gestured without any intention of getting closer to Harvey.Hundreds of people around instantly looked at Harvey.Their eyes were radiating with power. Clearly, they were battle-hardened veterans.Ordinary people would be scared witless by the sight.Harvey, on the other hand, was unfazed. He calmly stepped forward until he was only a few step
Kyren Pedler stared deep into Harvey York’s eyes. He did not expect the young man before him to be this interesting.“Since you don’t want me to save the remainder of your dignity, I won’t respect you just because of my daughter either.“I’ll be frank.“You seem capable, but you’re nothing compared to the country’s top talents.“You don’t even have the right to be with my daughter, let alone anything after that.“I hope that you’d break all connection with her.“Of course, I’ll make it worthwhile for you.”Kyren waved his hand before his subordinate brought a briefcase over.Stacks of green were seen inside. Some of it even got caught in the wind in the process.“Here’s a million dollars. You should know that it’s enough for you to live the rest of your life comfortably.“Swear you’ll leave my daughter, and I’ll send you to the best school on the planet. Of course, I’ll also fund everything.“Consider this a repayment for everything you did to my daughter.”Kyren seemed det
When Harvey and the others heard about Journi, they were all shocked. All of them took out their phones and started to check the trending searches. Very quickly, the screenshots of the role model husband and wife cheating started to appear. Photos of them and the audio of them fighting slowly appeared.To most of the netizens, something like this was much better.Very quickly, the role model husband and wife became everyone's talking points. Countless moral crusaders started to condemn them with words. Some were laughing at them, cursing at them, speaking for them… The entire internet became very lively as different types of people took different stances.When their romantic partners were all revealed, it allowed people to build up their own scenarios in their head. Many people started to search for all kinds of evidence through the internet.As the netizens continued to discuss it, news about the Xaviers ceased becoming important. While there were still some people who had a pro
"If that really doesn't work, maybe Yvonne can hide for a while?" Rachel said after giving it a thought. While she didn't know much about the internet, she knew about one thing. Trends like this would only remain for a few days. Ignore them and they would go away pretty quickly."It won't be that easy this time," Harvey said as he shook his head. "Since Linus is the one who planned this, he would definitely watch how things are going. Once he noticed things didn't develop how he wanted them to be, he'd do something else instead. He may publish the second half of the video that we don't want to. In other words, we're in his complete control."Everyone looked at each other, not sure how to deal with this mess."Sir, it's not good if you don't tell me something is happening at home when I'm your assistant, right? Or do you think the Country H Commercial Group is too small, and we can't help you?" Just when everyone was getting a headache, a slender figure walked into the residence'
It was obvious everyone knew the kind of situation Yvonne was in, so none of them were in the mood to cook. Instead, they simply ordered some takeaway and tried to see what they could do about this as they had dinner."Sir, according to the clues we can cover, the one pushing and controlling this should be Linus. The data he had should be complete, but he knew we wouldn't publish the second half of the wedding, which was why they could do this without fear of reprisal," Ray said angrily."Also, all these people on the internet are so stupid. They started to spread rumors without knowing any truth… Damn them! Didn't they know they should let the bullets fly a little?"Tyson thought about that, and said, "Sir, give me the word and I'll be able to find all of them one by one. We'll make them pay for their mindless ramblings!"Harvey glared at him. "Do you think you're George? Find one for me, then. Not to mention, this isn't something that violence can solve.""But we can't let them
"Despite being one of the top ten families, they worked together with the Islanders to profit themselves. They allied themselves with our enemies and made the eldest of their daughters marry an Islander. The Xaviers, one of the most powerful families in Country H… Hmph. Just what kind of filth are they hiding under all the glamor?"Our people have been at the top of the world for so many years, but now, there are those that kneel to some Islanders? Disgraceful! Shameful!"After Linus had gone to the rest stop, several of the most famous message boards on the internet started to show some hot searches which included words like top ten families, collusion, Islanders, and words like that. These words are all very eye-catching, and since there are people intentionally pushing things along, a series of events very quickly occurred on the internet.First of all, someone summarized that the Xaviers of Wolsing, one of the top ten families, were in a state of weakening. Then, someone pointed
Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Early?"Yvonne nodded. "Correct. According to our sources, he went to a rest stop about 10 miles away from Wolsing to pick up someone."Harvey was quite curious. "Who can make Linus so passionate to welcome? Who is this person?"Yvonne massaged her forehead. "Speaking of which, this man can be considered your subordinate in a way. Unfortunately, it's fate that he won't be under your control."Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds?""That's right. The scion of the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds in Parkerville, Dan Parker. Previously, he requested to marry someone from the Wright family, and the Wright family had officially responded. He'll soon be the son-in-law of the Wright family," Yvonne explained sternly.Harvey was slightly stunned. "The son-in-law of the Wright family? Which means…Sienna's fiancé?"Meanwhile, at the rest stop 10 miles away… The rest stop which was usually quite plain was lavishly
Harvey had been freed, but there was still some paperwork that needed to be done.Harvey was patient, as if he really wanted the key to the city and prevent Country A from trying to stir up another storm with him. He was very cooperative throughout the entire process.Only once all the paperwork was done did Soren sigh in relief. "Leave the rest to us, Harvey. In the next few days, stay discreet so no one will get you into any problem.""What? I've already proven that I'm innocent. What kind of problems will there be?" Harvey said curiously.Soren didn't want to hide anything from Harvey and said with a bitter smile, "I won't lie to you. While the people who died were from Country H, they had already obtained permanent residency in Country A, which meant that they were a part of Country A as well. Just today, Country A's side had already given us pressure through their embassy."Logically speaking, we have to find the culprit as soon as possible. However, all the evidence we've co
Ten minutes later, Soren personally asked Harvey to join him in the director's office. After a pot of hot tea had been brewed and poured, he sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for today. It's my subordinates' blunders. He did whatever he wanted already despite just being promoted. I'll be sure to make up to you."Harvey smiled. "I can understand that with your family's size, you'll inadvertently end up with a few people with questionable behavior. You better keep an eye on things and don't let one person ruin everything for you and your family. Wolsing is different from Golden Sands. You have to be extremely careful when you're here."Harvey's words were cold, but it was enough to make Soren think about it. Meanwhile, Garrick, who was standing there with his arms next to him, almost fell on his knees as he felt his legs lose strength. Since simple words from Harvey had already ended his future."Of course… It's best if someone can correct themselves after knowing the errors of their
"Ha! What an idiot! Who does he think he is? If he really is someone important, why is he even here?" Snowe sneered.The only emotion Snowe had for Harvey was disdain. She despised men who have no capabilities at all the most.Garrick and the others went to the main hall of the precinct. Everyone from Country A had been told to go home. At this moment, a row of cars with flags drove toward the entrance of the precinct. Judging from the car plates and the flags on the car, it was obvious the person inside the car was someone important within the police force. Very quickly, the door was opened. Garrick and the others saw the most important and newly promoted man within the police force in Wolsing—Soren Braff, ranked two within the Braff family.There were several high-level members of the police force with him in white uniforms, and all of them exuded an incredibly powerful presence. The moment Garrick and the others saw Soren appearing, they quickly greeted him with a smile."Wh
Hearing Harvey's conversation, the beautiful female officer said in disdain, "What? Are you pretending to contact someone from the Braff family? Do you think that's enough to scare the director? Our director is someone important within the family! If you really know the people from the Braff family, why wouldn't he know you?"I'm telling you right now. If you really did call someone from the Braff family, I, Snowe Leo, will eat this phone right in front of everyone!"In the beginning, Garrick was taken aback as well. But after he quickly glanced at the number on the screen, he smiled coldly. "You probably didn't know this, but aside from the number of my family's patriarch, I've saved the number of everyone important in the family. Do you want to trick me using just a random number? You're quite bold!""Really, now?" Harvey said with a smile. "At the very least, you know that you don't have the right to know his number. In that case, I'll help you delete that number. It won't be g
