“If that works, the Hunt family would’ve just looked for a masseuse. What are you even doing here for?”The monk’s face darkened instantly. He had no way to refute Harvey’s words. He desperately wanted to speak up but simply could not get himself to do so.Then, Harvey pointed at an elderly man wearing a goatee with a sage-like aura.“Don’t think I can’t tell you’re from the School of Humanitas just because you’re not wearing a robe.“You must have the Talisman of Tranquil up your sleeve.“It’s pretty effective against nightmares and people affected with aphasia.“But I guarantee you that it won’t be helpful this time.“Not only are your teachings completely useless, but the cinnabar you used to draw the talisman was also bought online.“You’re hoping it will work when you’re using fake ingredients? What a joke.The man pointed at Harvey when he constantly stuttered, unable to string proper words.“And you…”Harvey pointed at a man who seemed like he was from Seed Frontier.
The simple words were enough to freeze Veer Hunt and the others before showing anger in their eyes.‘You’re just tricking us all at this point!’‘Who doesn’t know that the Honey Pill can save the old lady?!’‘What’s the point of reiterating what we already know?!’Paislee Foster’s eyes lit up. Nobody knew what she was thinking then.“Then again…Harvey continued before anyone else could voice their doubts.“I’m pretty confident that I can save the old lady.“Though, I need time to prepare.”Paislee could no longer hold back her feelings. She naturally needed to reclaim her dignity after being constantly disrespected.“Just say that you can’t do anything already!“What do you mean you need to prepare?!“Do you think the old lady’s life is a joke?!”Paislee glared coldly.“Since you’re acting like you actually know what you’re doing, then you should tell us what you’re planning!”Harvey glared at Paislee before writing a formula on a piece of paper.Then, he glanced at Ve
The butler quickly wrote a few numbers on the check before disdainfully setting it in front of Harvey York.Harvey had no intention of taking it.Paislee Foster’s impression of Harvey worsened.“It’s already a lot of money after you failed to fool anyone here!“If it weren’t for the Hunt family’s successful business, you wouldn’t even get the money in the first place!“Now leave!“Do you want to get thrown out after they break your legs?!”Harvey glanced at Veer, whose expression remained unchanged.“Since you’re still being courteous with me, and the fact that Ethan and I are brothers…“I’ll tell you one more thing.“The old lady’s infected with Corpse Poison!“The Honey Pill would deal with the old lady’s problem in its entirety….“But the Lycan Pill is used to invigorate life.“She might come back, but her condition would worsen under three days.“If you’re not careful, she might just die because of this too.”Harvey shook his head before turning around, prepared to l
“You’re being rude, Sir York.”Veer Hunt’s face slightly darkened despite his good temper.He angrily squinted at Harvey York when he heard someone cursing his mother.‘The priests finally decided to give their pill, and yet he’s still running his mouth here?‘If it weren’t for the fact that Ethan’s a subordinate to the Head Coach…‘I would’ve gotten people to break every single one of his limbs by now.”Harvey shook his head.“I’m telling the truth. If you do let the old lady have the Lycan Pill, she will be awake soon after.“She’d be able to eat and drink like the average person.“But seventy-two hours later, she’d be unconscious again.“When that happens, she might be able to survive as long as you release the blood in her heart.“But if you miss that timing, even God won’t be able to save her after that.”Harvey calmly shook his head.He wanted to save the old lady, but what was the point if nobody believed that?At this point, only Ethan Hunt could make this happen.
Harvey York heaved a sigh after hearing the news. It seemed like his efforts were futile after all. He was only being painted as the villain, as usual.“She won’t die immediately.Harvey briefly thought about the situation.“I know you have people in the family.“Tell them to draw some blood when the old lady falls unconscious within half an hour. She might survive for the next twenty-four hours after that.“I’ll have time to save her after that.“That said, she’d be wheelchair-bound the rest of her life.”“And what if her blood isn’t released in half an hour?” asked Ethan Hunt tremblingly.Harvey sighed.“Then, that’ll be it for her.”Ethan went dead silent.Harvey knew what he wanted to say.“I know that you have a different identity now. Then again, you have an awkward position in your family since you’re still just a bastard to them.“I understand your concerns, but it’d be better to teach them a lesson, if anything.“I’m confident your old lady will return to normal,
That said, Harvey York did not pay much attention to the Hunt family’s affairs.Ethan Hunt had not made his comeback, not because he was afraid of the Hunt family. He already had an immense identity and status at this point.Of course, if the family were to cause Harvey trouble…He would not mind teaching them a lesson either.-After a long road of silence, the car reached a private nursing home.Harvey frowned. He did not understand why Mandy Zimmer was here in the first place.After pondering the situation momentarily, he decided to make the call.Mandy rejected the call, but she quickly sent a room number.Harvey asked the front desk for the number before reaching the front of the villa.Lights were brimming throughout the place. Some guards were also posted at the entrance.Mandy’s secretary, Maya Lee, had been waiting for a while. She made a welcoming gesture to invite Harvey inside after his arrival.Harvey saw that the elegantly renovated hall had signs of destructi
Mandy Zimmer and Lilian Yates looked over simultaneously.Mandy lightly nodded. She knew Harvey York was coming.Lilian felt instantly sluggish before she screamed at Harvey.“You little bastard! How dare you come back here?! You…”“Don’t you want the Honey Pill?” replied Harvey calmly.Lilian was instantly stunned after hearing Harvey’s words.“Stop pretending, Harvey!“Mandy told me the Hunt family saved the old lady!“What’s the point of the Honey Pill now?!“It can’t even give me the money and the villa anymore!”“The money’s just a tiny problem. The villa can also be bought with money!“Let me tell you something! The old lady’s awake right now…“But she’ll fall unconscious after three days!“When that happens, the Honey Pill’s value would skyrocket!“Maybe then, it’d be 1.5 billion with ten whole villas for you to have.”Lilian showed an odd gaze after hearing Harvey’s words. She wanted to lash out but had no choice but to force a smile.“Harvey—no! My dear son-in-
“Huh?”Lilian Yates froze.“You’re joking, right? Are you angry?“I can’t take jokes like this, you know? I’m an old lady!”Harvey York chuckled in secret after seeing Lilian forcing her feelings back.“The old lady might not need the Honey Pill either.“It doesn’t matter to me either way.“That said…”Before Harvey was done speaking, Mandy Zimmer’s phone suddenly vibrated while she was having her coffee.She handed Harvey a cup of coffee while she was getting the call.“What?” she said with a horrible expression.“My pre-sale license got rejected again?“Didn’t we hand over all the documents according to procedure?“What? We don’t have enough money in the account?“Right, I’ll head there immediately.”“I need to go back to the office, Harvey,” she said while completely ignoring Lilian.Harvey glanced at Lilian, who seemed a little sluggish.“I’ll come with; maybe I can help with something.”Mandy glared fiercely at Lilian before dragging Harvey to the company car wit
