“You’re calling the cops?“You want the government to bring you justice?Harvey York chuckled before clapping his hands.“Fine. Since you think you have the power to do that, I’ll play along!“I do want to see if someone like you is in the right or if I’m actually standing up for what’s right!”Xyla Garcia instantly scoffed after hearing Harvey’s words.Ever since she started studying, she knew it was extremely difficult for the police to advocate for the right things.She waved her hand, signaling her people to cut off every single exit from Harvey.It was clear in her mind that the Smalt Sect had many ways to deal with him if he were locked behind bars.A group of men in uniform showed up in less than ten minutes.Those people were showing stern expressions after seeing the injured lying on the ground with scattered firearms.Anyone could tell that there was a big fight going on here.The people in the room were quickly apprehended.Harvey did not resist at all. He allow
“So, you’re saying that person would abuse his authority because of the Smalt Sect?” asked Harvey York curiously.This was an unexpected surprise.Harvey wanted to deal with the Smalt Sect himself, but it would have been nice if the Osborne family had dealt with them first.The man had not gone against Harvey before, but it would be expected for him to cause trouble judging from Harvey’s conflict with the Osborne family back in Flutwell.Dutch Cobb briefly thought about the situation.“Judging from the Osborne family, this is an excellent opportunity to sell a favor to the Smalt Sect. Because of this, they’re most likely to cross a few lines.“But the man spent a great deal of effort to build his immense reputation. If he abused his power, his reputation would be immediately thrown out of the window.“That’s why I have no clue what will happen next.”Harvey took the glass of milk Dutch offered.“It’s not that hard, actually,” he said after taking a few sips of milk.“Since he
Harvey York gave a shrug.“I stood up for what’s right. I lent aid when someone needed help the most.“Is your second-in-command not planning to award me with anything?”Rae Higgs sighed.“You did do that, but you clearly went overboard.“You’re not deemed guilty, but you won’t be awarded either.”Harvey smiled when he signed the documents.“Looks like that man’s impartial after all.“Judging from the Osborne family, even if they can’t kill me, it wouldn’t be challenging to make things complicated for me.“Either he’s truly a saint or the most heinous man there is…”Rae was dead silent. She did not know how to respond to that.Dutch Cobb let out a sigh before showing a confused gaze.“Mr. Neil is upholding his reputation…“But, it’s safe to say he’s completely gone against the Smalt Sect and the Americans.“Provoking America isn’t that big of a deal, but he’d be in deep trouble for going against the Smalt Sect.”Harvey tapped on Dutch’s shoulder.“Don’t worry. No matter
“Cough cough!”Light coughs came from behind Miley Surrey.Stefan Augustus stepped forward with a strange look.He folded his arms as he briefly glanced at Harvey.“Thank you for this, Sir York.“If it weren’t for you, I’d turn into the Smalt Sect’s biggest joke. Maybe even the entirety of the outskirts.”Stefan gritted his teeth.Miley was his woman, no matter what.And yet Xyla Garcia still decided to make her accompany Emil Higgs.Not only was Stefan being utterly disrespected, he was also being treated like a cuck!For any man, this was completely unforgivable.“You’re too kind.Harvey smiled.“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.“My hostility toward you has completely gone after our last meeting.“That said, I’m unsure if I should say this…”Stefan paused before looking around him.“Please, speak your mind.”Harvey crossed his arms when he stepped forward.“I met Xyla and Stinger recently. They are all Amos’ people…“Judging from their actions, I could tell the
After returning to the No. 1 villa at Eden Mountain, Harvey York had nothing to do. He texted Mandy Zimmer, Yvonne Xavier, and a few others for a while before dozing off.After all, he could not rest well at the police station, no matter how calm he seemed. It was only natural to rest up after finally getting the chance.In the evening, the doorbell rang.Harvey freshened up himself before opening the door. Aria Surrey came inside with an elegant-looking lunch box.“You got all this time to get me takeouts?”Harvey gestured to Aria to sit.“You stayed at the police station yesterday. I figured you hadn’t eaten well since you didn’t go out today either.“I went to Wolsing Road and bought you some mutton chops.“It’s delicious. The meat is of good quality and not greasy either. It’s good for your body.”Aria opened the lunch box before the fragrant aroma wafted in the air.Harvey started chomping down on the food. He had not eaten anything for dinner yet.When Harvey was just
“He probably knows.”Aria Surrey thought about the situation for an instant.“Then again, Stefan has always been scared of Amos. After all, Amos excels both in knowledge and combat strength. Stefan never had a chance to fight against him.“But with the newfound strength, not only would Vaati worsen his relationship with his son if he intentionally talked him down, Stefan would probably become completely useless after.“Besides, the outskirts is in a dire situation right now.“You’re diverting attention to Stefan, but it doesn’t mean your conflict with the Smalt Sect would end just like that.“Because of Stinger and Xyla, Amos wouldn’t easily let you off the hook.“Vaati would probably try to benefit through this chaos too.No matter the experience or people skills, Aria would never be better than Harvey York.But before she came, she had already looked into the outskirts’ situation with Lennon Surrey. She would not have spoken this freely if that was not the case.“True. Peop
The next day, five o’clock in the afternoon.When he showed up at the Outskirts Courtyard, Harvey York held an exquisite box.This was a building for government officials. The outskirts was the capital of the Desert Province, and the building would hold most of the important officials here.As the second-in-command of the Desert Province, Neil Osborne had his independent courtyard.Harvey followed the address provided by Dutch Cobb before arriving at the courtyard.Two inspectors with firearms stood beside the entrance. One of them stepped forward and saluted Harvey after seeing his face.“Hello, sir.“This is private property. You’re not allowed entry.”Harvey smiled.“I’m looking for Mr. Neil. Please send word for me.“Tell him that I’m Harvey York.“I’m a friend of Dutch, the first-in-command of the Outskirts Police Station.”The inspector nodded slightly before hurrying into the compound.Around ten minutes later, he came back.“This way, please.”After walking past
A dozen middle-aged women were following behind Andie Quinlan.They were showing proud looks as they pointed their noses at Harvey York.No matter how they looked, someone like Harvey was never worth their time.Judging from both mannerisms and aura, those people were clearly affluent ladies.“Since Mr. Neil’s not here, I should just come another time then.”Harvey turned around, ready to leave the place.Andie was not used to someone leaving so decisively. She would usually get people clinging and pampering her.After all, everyone who came looking for Neil in the past would kneel just to clean her shoes, desperately trying to get into her good graces.Andie brought Harvey inside just to show this off to her friends.She got a little upset when she saw Harvey doing something out of the ordinary.“Looks like Neil’s not doing too good recently, huh?” said a friend of Andie’s.“The young man’s being this disrespectful after strutting his way in here! People who didn’t know pro
