“When should we start taking action?”Yvonne grabbed Harvey a drumstick, smiling.“There’s no rush; Elric’s not retired yet, right?” Harvey replied with food in his mouth.“If we take action now, everyone will turn against us out of hatred. Just let the others fight, and we’ll reap the rewards after that.“We need to do things the best way with minimal casualties.”Yvonne chuckled.“We can’t just sit here and do nothing though, right?”Ray had no intention of holding back. “We might as well head back to South Light if that’s the case.”“What are you saying?”Harvey glared at Ray.“We’re not even done with Sky Corporation’s relocation.“We haven’t even got a suitable investor in Wolsing, either.“We’d have to find an opportunity to secure a place here first, you know?“We have full control over Buckwood…but this is Wolsing. Everything’s a lot more difficult here.”Ray nodded, then pondered the situation for a moment.“I understand. Sky Corporation will launch all busine
Harvey showed a profound gaze; he didn’t think a gift to Mandy would cause such huge trouble.‘Maybe I should’ve…’While Harvey was in deep thought, Yvonne smiled.“Of course, this is just speculation.“Maybe the Hunt family would treat them kindly for the Honey Pill’s whereabouts. In any case, we’ll cross the bridge when we get there.“For my old lover’s sake, I’ll make sure that nothing happens to her.”Harvey’s eyes twitched.With both Mandy and Yvonne in the same city, the love triangle was bound to have some drama.Before Harvey’s headache could subside, Yvonne’s face darkened and she continued to speak. “Right, Sir York. There’s something that I need to tell you.“The Xavier family’s butler gave me a call; they know that I came back here already. He said that the old man’s arranging another date for me, and demanded me to go.”Harvey’s eyes twitched again.Ray desperately wanted to hide under the table after hearing those words.Bam!When Harvey was still thinking
Yvonne smiled at Harvey, completely ignoring Reggie.“Judging from this guy’s tone, you must’ve stolen his woman. Let me guess: Mandy? You have quite the good luck with women, huh?”Yvonne chuckled.The curve of her smile, revealing her bright teeth, would be enough to make any man lose control.“No, you’re the one with good luck here…”Reggie looked as if his soul was being pulled as he tried reaching out to Yvonne’s face.“If I were you, I wouldn’t do anything until I figure out who I’m dealing with,” Harvey said after setting his utensils down.“I guarantee that if you get your hand any closer, you’ll be the one suffering.“Grovel and admit to your mistake, then get your men out of here.“Pay for the room on your way out, and I’ll let you off the hook.“After all, I don’t want to cause any trouble since it’s my first day here.”Reggie froze; he didn’t think that Harvey was a prominent figure, but a useless kept man. But judging from Harvey’s tone, he started to realize th
The men in black suits burst out laughing after hearing Reggie’s words.He was right, after all.Whoever his enemies were, as long as they were outsiders… They’d be instantly humbled as soon as they arrived here.‘A mere outsider like him has no right to go against a prominent figure like Young Master Reggie!’A few beautiful women in heavy makeup heard the commotion, and came to watch the show.They had their arms crossed as they glared disdainfully at Harvey and the others.‘There’s been a lot of country bumpkins visiting here…but it's my first time seeing someone acting like this!’“I should warn you,” Ray said in the nick of time.“You better do as Sir York says. He’s in a good enough mood since he just came here. He won’t make things harder for you people if you listen.”Pfft!The beautiful women laughed their stomachs off.“Sir York? He calls himself that when he just got here? That’s a title only a CEO can have!“If he’s a CEO, then I’m the king of the world! How dar
“You bastard! Stop it!”The fierce men rushed forward after freezing for a moment; they were holding knives and baseball bats, prepared to take action at any time.A huge fight was about to break out.Ray was Harvey’s personal bodyguard, and also a soldier who had been on the battlefield. He chuckled coldly, having no intention of letting these people get close to Harvey.Bam, bam, bam!He charged into one of the men, then grabbed the man’s knife and took down the rest with swift cuts. After that, he quickly leaped toward Reggie.Reggie instinctively felt threatened; he was about to stumble back, but Ray’s knife was already on his throat. A cold aura seeped out of the blade, making Reggie shiver in fear.His face was horrible. It was clear that he was at his wit’s end.The beautiful women screamed in fear before hiding in the corner of the room; none of them dared to take a single breath in that very moment.“Reggie, right? You better tell your men this. Give up now, or my han
Reggie glared furiously at Harvey after hearing his words.“I admit defeat this time, kid!“But don’t worry! Next time, I’ll make sure I’ll get a lawyer with me when I bring people to take you out! I’ll be able to get out unscathed after that!”“Oh? Is that so? I’m so scared!”Harvey stood in front of Reggie with his arms crossed, then chuckled after sizing him up. “Since you’re going to kill me anyway, it’d be fine if I charge you interest first, right?”Harvey grabbed Reggie’s hair, then slammed his head onto the marble table.Cracks were instantly formed along with the loud bang.The men in suits and the beautiful women wouldn’t even dare let out a shriek.They thought a small fry that could only play by the rules wouldn’t be impressive at all. After all, good dogs don’t bite.Who knew that Harvey would be this fierce?The long-haired man shivered in rage; he wanted to step forward, but he was held back when Ray pointed his knife at him calmly. Reggie screamed in pain; h
Harvey smiled; he didn’t mind the situation at all. After all, numbers never mattered to him in the first place.Reggie thought Harvey was completely shaken, as he only stood without doing anything.“You should know by now, kid!” he exclaimed bravely. “What right do you have to go against me here? What can you do?!”“It’d be simple for me to get out of here with you hostage. You think you’re the only one who can call people here? Would you even dare lay your hands on me when the police come?”“You’re calling the cops? Come on! Do it, then! If the cops can even do anything about it, then I’ll cut my head off for you to piss in!”“Forget it,” Harvey replied with a disdainful glare. “You don’t even have the right for me to do that. Take a look in the mirror first before saying something like that.”Reggie was so infuriated, he was about to pass out.“You’re finished, kid!“No matter what happens today… My men will find out everything about you!“Even your damn ancestors will be d
The room was dead silent; the long-haired man and the others were shivering in fear. They wouldn’t dare say another word anymore.They were afraid of the demon in front of them breaking every single one of Reggie’s limbs. None of them would be able to take responsibility of the situation, after all!“Tch! You people are no good after all…”Harvey tapped Reggie’s face.“You’ve already called so many people to come. And yet, you’re acting like cowards.“Why don’t you answer me something; who has the final say in this situation?”Reggie looked deep into Harvey’s eyes, and instinctively shivered. He couldn’t see any emotion in them at all. Harvey’s sense of calm was enough to send cold shivers down Reggie’s spine.Reggie, who was planning to run his mouth no matter what, finally decided otherwise.“I give up!” he exclaimed with a parched throat.Slap, slap, slap!“Louder! Did you not eat today or what? Did you not hear what I asked? Who cares if you give up?! Hit me back if you
