"Closed?" Harvey smiled gently. He took out a photo from his pocket, and gave it to the security guard."She was your boss, correct? I heard she lost her husband and only had one son. Unfortunately, her son was useless, and they lost almost everything that her husband had left for her. Now, she's dead. Her son must be mourning inside, correct?"Why don't you go in and ask your little employer if he wanted to know the truth of his mother's death? If he wants to, then let me in. I can confidently say that I'm the only one who can help him get to the truth of his mother's death."The security guard looked at him strangely. After holding the photo for a moment, he quickly went in.-Five minutes later, Harvey was inside the furniture complex.All the shops inside the complex were closed, and the lights in the corridors weren't switched on as well. Only the dim emergency lights would occasionally flash.In the corner of the complex, several security guards were sitting on the floor l
When Helios shouted loudly, many of the security guards surrounding them stood up. They all looked at Harvey with cold eyes.They were all Helios' henchmen, who worked for him.While Helios wasn't worth much, he treated his underlings well.That was why his henchmen were still willing to serve him, even when he had fallen to such a state.Harvey ignored the security guards who were approaching him, and simply walked over to the photo of the deceased woman. He looked at the face of the ordinary woman on it, and said, "This reminds me of the idiom 'give a dog a bad name and hang him', Helios."No matter what you say, you're still a nepo baby. You should understand the person who killed your mother isn't me, but the person who used her to frame others. If you want revenge, that's fine. But go look for the person who ordered her to do all this!"Kill him, and only then will you be able to truly avenge your mother. Do you think there's any point in trying to kill me? Do you think your
"Oh, right. I heard something else," Harvey said, as if something came to his mind. "About three years ago, you still had a forty-four-million–dollar debt at the Hamilton Casino, right?"It's not a lot, but it's not an amount you can scoff at either. To the Hamiltons, bad debts will affect their company's share prices. That's why they've been looking for the person who owed them this forty-four-million-dollar debt."I'm an acquaintance with the King of Gambling. If you need someone to organize a dinner for you to negotiate this, I'm willing. The Hamiltons are all compassionate people, so this should be negotiable."Helios narrowed his eyes with a dry smile. "Should I thank you, then?""No rush," Harvey said with a faint smile. "The thing you'll be thankful for comes after this."I heard you're very close with a certain 'daughter' of a mafia boss in Wolsing? Not only did you help her with her computer problems often, you even helped her clean up her clog drain. You two are so close
It was four in the evening.Captain Pavel had arranged for a safehouse for Mandy to stay for the night.According to the Third-Ring Police Station, while they had no evidence to prove that the victims' death had anything to do with Mandy, there was also no evidence to prove that their deaths had nothing to do with her.At this point, the police station's intention to either protect Mandy or stop her from leaving was irrelevant.Third-Ring Police Station also requested Harvey to stay in the safehouse as well.When Harvey arrived at the safehouse's location, he was a little stunned. His expression was still calm, but his eyes darkened.Other than Mandy and her family, even Hector was there as well.At this time, he was drinking coffee while folding his leg. He then invited Harvey to join him for a cup of coffee, as if he owned the place.At the same time, Lilian also saw Harvey turning up."What's going on? Isn't everything solved already? Why does Mandy have to stay here? Tell
Hector sighed. "It's fine, Lilian. I know very well the relationship between Harvey and Mandy. It's normal for him to be on his guard against me. All is fair in love and war, right? I just hope Mandy won't have the same misunderstanding as he has."Simon, who was standing next to Lilian, scoffed. "Of cours! My daughter possesses a keen mind. She won't suspect you just because of some words from Harvey. You're from the Thompson family of Wolsing, one of the top ten families. You have always carried yourself with pride and dignity."Someone like you wouldn't stoop so low. If you want something, all you need to do is to have a show of force. Only those who have no confidence and have a wicked heart would use these despicable schemes to achieve their goals."Hector's heart skipped a beat, but he still smiled. "You're right, of course."Harvey also gave Simon a big thumbs up. "I think we should record what you said just now and put it on repeat a hundred times at least. Maybe it would f
Harvey sighed when he saw Mandy's expression. While Mandy had some suspicion of Hector earlier, Harvey knew Mandy's personality very well. Since Hector had already persuaded her, it was pointless for him to say anything else.Unless Harvey could take out some evidence to counter Hector, it was pointless to waste his breath here.As the thought crossed his mind, he then took out his mobile and made a few calls right in front of Hector and the others. He then said, "What a coincidence! My men know where Reggie is right now. I'll go and have a wee chat with him. If Reggie really is the one behind this, then I'll return here and apologize to you!" Harvey didn't even give Lilian and the others a glance, and simply left."That bastard… He's getting more and more unruly! This is obviously his fault, and still he refuses to acknowledge it's him. He's so stubborn!" Lilian said with a resentful expression."Mandy, I'm going to repeat it one more time. You better not have any thoughts o
The biggest private room in Club Aroma was located on the fifth floor, which was also the top floor.There was only one room on the fifth floor, and its walls were made of glass. One could see its surroundings in full view on this floor.According to the information Tyson gathered, Reggie had booked this entire floor and was enjoying his time there.Since the evidence Hector produced had made Reggie to be the culprit, Harvey had to naturally come see him—to see if he willingly chose to become the culprit, or he was framed.When Harvey and his entourage had reached the stairway leading to the fifth floor, many security guards looked at him. One of them looked at Harvey with a dark expression. "Who are you? Don't you know Mr. Reggie has already booked the floor upstairs? You should leave if you know what's good for you!" Harvey said nothing, and simply walked over. Meanwhile, Tyson simply followed Harvey before giving all of the security guards a kick.Plenty of people were look
The youth continued to bombard Harvey with words. "If you leave right now, I'll still refer to you as a mister. Otherwise, you won't even have the chance to leave after this!"The youth then approached Harvey, wanting to slap Harvey's face. Before he could even get any closer, however, Tyson had already taken a step forward and immediately slapped him across the face, sending him to the floor with a loud smack.The youth instantly fell on the coffee table carved from rock in the corner. There was a loud bang, and he could only wriggle around in pain after that.What happened shocked everyone present.They didn't expect the man next to Harvey would dare to make the first move. Not only that, he was doing it as brutally as possible.Hadlee, who previously framed Harvey and said he wanted to sexually assault her, turned pale. She quickly hid behind Reggie, hoping to find a safer spot to hide behind.Kartier, who wanted to date Zhuri, was also among the crowd with a dark expression
"What are you doing? Why didn't you crawl and go on your knees when you saw your master return, and you keep on screaming when the Xavier family of Wolsing is just a vassal of Country A Xavier Inc!"Didn't that old man Nashon ever teach you what to do? Your attitude makes Country A Xavier Inc. very sad! Even a dog I raise won't bite me, but all you do is keep barking!" reprimanded Linus as he kept shaking his head as if he had got the wrong dog.But the most important part was that such words were aimed at the Xaviers of Wolsing, one of the top ten families of Country H. While shocking, it also showed just how domineering Country A Xavier Inc. is.Nashon's expression also instantly turned dark.But before he could say anything, Yvonne snorted and said, " Country A Xavier Inc? They're just one branch of our family who betrayed our family. They're just a conglomerate that managed to expand their business after running away into Country A! And now you dare to come here to treat the pl
Vroom!Just as Harvey and the others were almost finished and were about to move on to tea and desserts, the sounds of engines roaring suddenly came from the side door where they were having lunch.At the same time, there were also the sounds of the Xavier family's security guards calling and yelling.But for some reason, the usually stubborn security guards could not stop the engine sounds from getting closer. Very quickly, twelve Black Badge Rolls-Royce drove over and stopped right at the entrance of the side chamber with arrogance.All the artificial hills, flowers, and grass were in a mess.Thump! Thump! Thump!Instantly, dozens of men in military uniforms opened the door and exited from their cars. Their eyes were full of spirit and full of vitality. It was obvious that they were all martial arts elites. Other than that, there were also dozens of elite men and women wearing suits and leather shoes.Then, two sexy secretaries walked over to the car's back seat and opened the
"Harvey's here," Nashon smiled when he saw Harvey arrive. His smile was even brighter than usual when he knew Harvey had agreed to sign the contract.Obviously, Nashon was getting increasingly happy with this man who might become his family's son-in-law in the future."Come, let me introduce someone to you. Behind Yvonne is my granddaughter and Yvonne's cousin, Sia Xavier."Meanwhile, Harvey gave Sia a strange look. She was a young woman who was of 18-years-of-age. She had just matured, and an innocent aura surrounded her. Her plump face and her hourglass figure made her have both innocence and lust.If she were to download a particular streaming app and start streaming, she would instantly get tens of millions of fans very quickly."Come, this is Harvey." Obviously, Yvonne also doted on her cousin.Sia's eyes landed on Harvey briefly, and she weakly greeted, "Brother-in-law…"When Yvonne heard that, her face turned red, and Harvey's expression instantly froze as he almost fell
Harvey sighed. "I thought so too; that's why I gathered everyone here. Why don't all of you give it a look and see what we should do? Should we sign the contract?"Harvey said in a helpless tone. "The old man also said that I don't have to worry. This is not part of Yvonne's assets if she marries over… That the Xavier family wouldn't be such a cheapskate…"The atmosphere became even more awkward. Everyone knew that Yvonne only had her eyes on Harvey, but Harvey's attitude was unclear. After receiving this 10% share, Sky Corporation will be completely bonded with Xavier Corporation.Perhaps Nashon also wanted to use this chance to improve Harvey and Yvonne's relationship a little more.Tyson grinned and said, "Boss, seeing that Yvonne treats you that well, why don't you just marry into the Xavier family and become their live-in son-in-law? That's one of the top ten families in Country H, and if Sky Corporation works with them, we might have a fighting chance even if we're going agai
"Then, it has been decided," Nashon replied and waved his hand, stopping whatever Yvonne wanted to say. "You can treat this as compensation, or you can treat this as us adding more duties to you. Regardless, from now onward, the only person who has authority over you within this family is me. "Even your cousin Jesse will be under your command when necessary. If there are no accidents, then you'll be the next matriarch of the Xavier family."Nashon then smiled at Harvey and said, "Harvey, I have a suggestion. Since we're on this topic, I wonder if you'd consider it. We, the Xaviers of Wolsing, lack a live-in son-in-law. If you're willing to, it's fine even if the patriarch of the Xavier family uses the last name York, right?"Harvey was speechless. The old man would do everything to drag him down into the mud!"So, are you happy with my explanation?" Nashon gave Harvey a meaningful smile and an even more meaningful look. Obviously, if Harvey nodded, wealth beyond his imagination wo
"As for using Sheldon to force Yvonne, now you must understand that all this is just a scheme. No matter how far our family has fallen, we don't have to explain our scheme to outsiders, correct?' Nashon smiled faintly. While his words were quite soft, Harvey's inquisition of him was useless.Harvey narrowed his eyes. While he had always known the old man would be quite a handful, he did not realize he would be so hard to deal with. Nashon laughed and waved his hand when he noticed the slight change in Harvey's expression.Shortly after, a maid walked over with an ancient wine flask, next to sleek wine glasses.Nashon picked up the flask, poured the two glasses full, and winked at Harvey. "Come, Harvey. Why don't we taste this Spirit Wine that I frequently obtained from an auction recently?""Spirit Wine?"Harvey frowned and narrowed his eyes. He could sense that the wine was not some ordinary wine, but he did not know why Nashon suddenly wanted to bring this thing out.When Nasho
"I don't think so. You never underestimated me," replied Harvey, with conviction. "Meanwhile, I did underestimate the Xavier family's ambition. You used my hand to destroy the Shinto Way's foundation so you could take everything they owned within our country. Aren't you afraid you'll get too full if you eat everything in one go?"Jesse, who had not said anything until now, narrowed his eyes as he heard what Harvey had to say. He did not expect Harvey to have already figured everything out alone.Meanwhile, there was little to no change in Nashon's expression. He simply smiled and said, "Don't worry about us. While we have used you, but you can't blame us since Yvonne is our scheme's most important piece. To us, all she needed to do was to act as bait. As for who were the ones coming for the bait… That would be our consideration."Harvey's expression became cold. "If I never came, won't Yvonne fall into the hands of the Islanders?""And will you allow it?" Nashon laughed. "Even if y
Third ring of Wolsing, ten in the evening.Compared to the dilapidated Island Nation embassy in the outer ring, the Xavier residence in the third ring of Wolsing looked mysterious and solemn. Not long after leaving the embassy, he did not waste his breath and immediately told Jesse to lead the way and bring him and Yvonne back to the Xavier of Wolsing.He had to explain certain things even if it was to the top ten families of Country H. Otherwise, this would not be a complete scheme. Jesse said nothing and simply led the way in silence.The three swiftly walked through winding paths past corridors, lakes, and artificial hills. In the end, they arrived at an old building in the middle of the residence.While this place looked empty and deserted, the reality was that this place was filled with lethal dangers. Those who came here without informing the people here ahead would not even know how they died.The candle in the old candle holder was burning within the building. While it was
Whoosh!Aya gave it her all, but Harvey simply swung his sword. But Harvey's seemingly underwhelming attack defended against Aya's explosive offensive. Aya did not choose to retreat after her attack failed. Her princess pride did not allow her to retreat simply.She took a deep breath and gave her 120%. Her power and speed were much faster when she attacked again. However, the moment the attack was going to fall, Aya shuddered. Because she noticed that Harvey's eyes had always been so cold from the very beginning…It was as if he had seen through life and death…It was as if he had seen through her life and death…Unspeakable despair grew in Aya's heart, and she felt that her sight began to be covered in darkness. A cold aura seemed to cover her from all directions, making it hard for her to breathe.Clang!At this moment, Harvey's swing clashed with Aya's full-powered strike. However, Aya could simply feel her hand shaking and her right hand numbed. And then, the blade of her s
