The moment Leon Silva kneeled, the Silvas’ strongest pillar of support crumbled.The Silvas’ pride, dignity, and sense of responsibility vanished in an instant.Slam!Slam!Slam!Brent Silva and the others followed suit, kneeling one by one.From the beginning, they never had the ability to resist. Cold sweat drenched their whole bodies, as though they came across a chilly night.In front of this man, they did not even have the right to breathe.Harvey York looked at the sight with absolute indifference.The sight of the Silvas kneeling in front of him seemed like it did not affect him at all.His cold gaze then shifted toward Margie Cloude.“It’s funny how my brother always thought of you as his beloved. He thought that you were his everything!”“It’s funny how you betrayed him and sided with the Silvas for fame and glory. You even went as far as to turn yourself into the Silvas’ plaything!”“While you’re enjoying all of that, have you ever thought about how my brother
Harvey York looked at Leon Silva’s struggling for a moment, and then his eyes shifted toward the Silvas. The expressions on their faces were nothing short of hideous.Harvey could not hold in his laughter.“Interesting. No matter if you admit defeat, or if you plead this much…”“You only did because I told you of my identity.”“If it weren’t for that, would you beg for mercy here? Would you admit defeat?”“No!”Harvey York stepped forward and kicked Leon Silva.A hard slam, and the Silvas’ last line of dignity, Leon Silva’s knees were shattered.No matter how unwilling Leon felt, he could only stay kneeling on the ground in repentance.After Harvey kicked Leon, he coldly said, “Leon Silva. Brent Silva. Margie Cloude. Jonathan Maxwell. Ted Dunn…”“Raise your heads.”Those whose names were uttered, even the prideful Leon Silva, subconsciously raised their heads.They felt as though their hearts were about to fly out of their throats, they were all extremely anxious.They all
Now, Harvey York’s cold eyes rested on Chopper Lyon and his gangster subordinates.Gang bosses like Chopper Lyon often acted high and mighty, as if they lived high above in the clouds, looking down at peasants and despising the common folk.However, their pride and arrogance were useless here.When they felt Harvey York’s cold gaze, they all crawled onto the ground. Their bodies shook, and cold sweat ran down their faces. They knew all too well that their families’ life and death would be decided by Harvey York.As his cold eyes bore into the gangsters, Harvey spat venomously, “I won’t kill you, but you still need to be punished!”“Even if my brother’s death does not concern you…”“But the truth remains. You terrorized him! Every single one of you must kneel in front of his grave for three whole days!”“Yes, yes, yes!”Chopper Lyon was the first one to speak, trembling in his boots.“Yes, we understand!”“Crawl here right now! Nobody gets up!”At Chopper Lyon’s order, all
“But Quinton York was furious! He came to me on his own accord. His goal was simple, and that was to never allow you the chance to return to Buckwood!”Now, Harvey York finally understood why the Silvas had dealt with William Bell.Originally, having William Bell alive in Buckwood was beneficial for the Yorks. At least, they could observe Harvey York’s plans through William.Yet the Silvas suddenly plotted against William and used foul schemes to achieve their goal.‘It was Quinton York after all.’‘That meant the man from the footage was Quinton York. Then, the other blurry silhouettes…’‘Are Queenie York and the twins involved too?’Leon Silva studies Harvey’s face. He sighed and said: “If us Silvas weren’t so ambitious, Quinton York wouldn’t have the chance to control us…”“A shame I was blinded by my obsessions. I did not gauge the Silvas’ power properly.”“It wasn’t wrong of me to make my move, but I failed to accurately judge my limits.”Leon Silva continued to speak.
Even as night arrived, Harvey York did not return.The news made Mandy Zimmer faint once more. She still could not accept the fact that her husband was already dead.Senior Zimmer organized a huge evening banquet, saying it was to mourn for Harvey York’s death. In truth, it was a celebration.The Zimmers had finally gotten rid of the live-in son-in-law!In her confusion, Mandy Zimmer was taken to the banquet by Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates.Xynthia Zimmer, on the other hand, had locked herself in her room with no intention of coming out. Hidden inside with no one to see, her tears kept flowing out to the point she was almost blinded by them.At the Zimmer Villa… Senior Zimmer stood up, trembling, as he held a cup full of wine.“Tonight’s goal of the banquet is simple!”“Number one: to restore Mandy Zimmer’s identity as a Zimmer!”“Number two: to celebrate Mandy Zimmer in finally regaining her freedom, completely free from her shackles!”“Number three: to preach our continu
“Do I look like a ghost to you?”Harvey York strode into the hall full of terrified people staring at him, and stopped right in front of Zack Zimmer.Zack Zimmer trembled and reached out to touch Harvey’s hand. Perplexed, he stammered, “It’s warm? You’re still alive? How could this be?”Harvey York replied coolly, “Seems like you really want me dead.”“Huh? Oh, no!” Zack Zimmer subconsciously denied the claim. He was not sure why he was so scared of Harvey York’s aura.“Harvey!”Mandy Zimmer had returned to her senses the moment Harvey appeared. She rushed toward him and hugged him tightly.Harvey York returned the hug and patted her on the head.“I’ve made you worry, I should’ve come back sooner…”“No, I’m glad you were able to come home…”The watching spectators grew disgusted by the heartwarming scene played by the two.Senior Zimmer barely stopped himself from trembling. He looked at Harvey York with a bewildered stare.“Impossible! The Silvas and Chopper Lyon wouldn’t
The next day, early morning.The Zimmer family had eagerly followed Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer to the Silva Corporation. Even the unstable Senior Zimmer had come along with them.How glorious this must be! There was no way he would allow himself to miss it!The Zimmers became exhilarated when they saw the Silva Corporation’s hundred-storey office building.Even though the Silva Corporation could not compare to the Sky Corporation, it was already quite an impressive company.Since Sky Corporation was directly under Prince York’s command, not just any ordinary company could compare itself to Sky Corporation.Even among the first-rated families in all of Buckwood, a business like Silva Corporation was scarce.Right now, the Zimmers were filled with excitement.Mandy Zimmer was no different.After finding the reception desk in the hall, Harvey York immediately expressed his intentions.“I’m Harvey York, I’m here to take over the Silva Corporation!”The receptionist looked at
The previous CEO of Silva Corporation was Leon Silva.But he had already resigned the day before, and had returned all of the Silvas’ shares.Quinton York’s most trusted subordinate, Joel Flynn, was temporarily appointed as Silva Corporation’s new CEO.He was a returned college student, trained by Quinton York during the last two years.When he unexpectedly received the news that he’d be appointed as the CEO of Silva Corporation the day before, Joel Flynn became excited to the point he could not sleep.To be the CEO of a million dollar corporation was truly the peak of life!As for why the Silvas had forfeited all of their shares and why Leon Silva would willingly give up his position of CEO, he did not know. He did not want to know, either.He only knew that he had successfully risen up the ranks.Quinton York only had one request for Joel Flynn: properly manage Silva Corporation. If anyone dared to take the Silva Corporation, he was asked to end their lives.Joel Flynn has t
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
