"Before I came over, I've just received news of something interesting. Someone has gathered a large amount of capital trying to short-sell the crude oil market in the global futures market. However, the price of crude oil crashed, and that person had lost all the money," said Harvey to Hector."I've made the calculations. This person had lost at least a few billion dollars. While he came from an influential family, I believe even his family would be harmed after losing all the capital. All I can say is that this particular person is extremely childish since he had ordered the assassin to kill me so that he could get back at me after he made a wrong move."Hector, I can only say that you are quite mentally strong. You lost everything, but you still can stand here and argue with me. I'm truly impressed!"Many people in the hall looked at each other after hearing what Harvey had said. Everyone was paying attention to what was happening in the futures market earlier.If Hector really w
"Or you know, you can forget about killing my men. Why don't you just kill me using the Royal Flush? I'm a coward if I so much as frown!" It was obvious that Hector felt that he had already seen through Harvey's bottom line.Since Harvey did not dare to kill anyone, how could he show weakness at a time like this?When that thought crossed his mind, Hector even grabbed and sipped from a glass of soda water from the podium and coldly said, "Not to mention… You have understood something. You're safe after you humiliated Mabon because of Sienna's support."But if you're crossing me, you're going against the entire Thompson of Wolsing. No matter how powerful you are, can you be more powerful than the entire Thompson family? Time has changed. We're no longer living in the ages of heroes. If you can't even understand that, then you'll die soon."When those afraid of Harvey's action heard what Hector had said, they all had a moment of realization.He was right!Hector and Mabon were two
"If you really want to die, I'll fulfill your wish."Harvey did not want to waste his breath with Hector anymore and stepped forward onto the stage. Then, he started to twist the Royal Flush in his hand…Suddenly, the door into the hall was once again kicked open.George Zabel appeared at the door, and two of his subordinates dragged a middle-aged woman inside. Then, they dumped her right before the stage.When Hector saw it, the expression on his face was full of shock.Then, George bowed at Harvey, saying, "Mr. Harvey, this woman called Number Seven is now willing to confess everything. Not only did she confess where she came from, but she also confessed who the one behind the Royal Flush was and what happened afterward."According to what she said, all the people who started a riot at the Ninth-Branch Company were arranged by Hector. After that had failed, it was also he who ordered her to kill everyone who attended the riot. What happened at Sky Corporation and the Royal Flus
"I did tell you to kill Harvey, but do you think I'm stupid enough to order it in front of you?" Hector subconsciously said, feeling his blood pumping. "Not to mention, I was wearing a mask every time we met. How do you know it's me? I'm telling you, don't you dare—"Hector suddenly stopped talking, silent. He realized he had accidentally exposed the truth.The entire crowd at the expo was silent. What happened at this moment revealed to everyone there that Hector hired an assassin to assassinate Harvey, and Harvey had every right to come after him.Harvey slowly walked up the stage and said, "Since you have already admitted to your crimes, are you going to kill yourself, or should I give you a hand and send you to hell?""Send me to hell?" Hector laughed angrily, then pointed at Harvey. "So what if I hired an assassin? So what if you have the evidence? I'm telling you, the most you'll get is throwing me in jail for maybe a couple of years. Even in prison, I have plenty of ways to
Tyson and the others quickly fell under the watchful eyes of those from Dragon Cell. They couldn't do a lot in a short time.There was a brief moment of chaos, but things calmed down very quickly.Jesse said slowly, "Mr. Harvey, Mr. Hector. All of us are acquaintances, so there's no need to push things this far. I don't care which of you are in the right, but there are laws in this land. Since you're still in Wolsing, then please follow the rules in Wolsing."You should always obey the law. Whoever breaks the law in front of me is forcing my hand."Jesse appeared very dominant and oppressive. His presence immediately kept the entire hall under his control, as if he were the ruler of this place."Looks like you can't touch me after all, Harvey," Hector said with a victorious smile when he saw Jesse making his appearance."It's true paying for an assassination is a severe crime, but someone like me can easily be released after a short while. I don't care how powerful you are, I'll
Hector slowly raised his chin and looked at the ceiling on top of him with his increasingly empty eyes. There was disbelief in his gaze.Someone like him was destined to be able to enjoy all the finest things in life. He was destined to be on high, controlling the destiny of others.Death was something so far away from him. For him, no matter what he did, it wouldn't be enough to kill him.Even if the punishment for his crime was death, there would be plenty who would be willing to die in his place.However, Hector never expected the Grime Reaper to catch up with him either way.He didn't expect Harvey would kill him without a care for this world.Hector could feel regret, resentment, and anger.All those different emotions were amassing within him. However, it wasn't enough to change the fact that he was dying.His head fell lifelessly. In the final moment, all his eyes carried within them were endless resentment.Unfortunately for Hector, Harvey was simply dusting his hand w
No matter how unbelievable things seemed, it was beyond a shadow of a doubt that Hector had already died.Mabon had to accept it. While he didn't have any evidence, he was certain Harvey had a direct link to Hector's death. Harvey wouldn't hesitate to do the deed.When the thought crossed his mind, Mabon began sweating profusely. Luckily, he acknowledged his defeat immediately. Otherwise, he would be the one who died.Should he still pick on Harvey in the future?Mabon closed his eyes. He knew that after today, Harvey would become the biggest psychological obstacle in his mind, haunting him forever.Even Mandy was very confused. She wasn't sure what kind of expressions she should make. In fact, she wasn't sure what she should do.Hector suddenly died.What happened in the dark for that one minute?Jesse took a deep breath, and forced herself to calm down while the others were still too surprised to act.Then, he scanned the entire crowd and waved his hand, saying, "Call rein
Jesse and Mabon sat face to face in Geraldton Hotel's presidential suite."You're the organizer and person in charge of the Wolsing Property Expo, Mr. Mabon," Jesse said as he took a sip of coffee. "From our investigation report, you're the one who informed the Thompsons about your event. I believe you can convince the Thompsons to let it go."I believe Mr. Harvey will prepare some form of compensation for the Thompsons. I hope no one will use this chance to kick up a storm when Wolsing is in a very sensitive period," Jesse said calmly, as if he was simply stating a fact.No one can change his attitude, even if the person sitting opposite of him was Mabon of the Wright family."I know you're the next in line to lead the Dragon Cell, Mr. Jesse. You're also the scion of the Xaviers of Wolsing. You're not someone I can offend when you have both identities. Ah, I forgot. You're also the student of the previous leader of the Dragon Guards, and you only went to Dragon Cell because of a
Aya Fujiwara was from the branch family of the Island Nation's royal family. She couldn't be compared to anyone, whether it was in terms of her potential or the resources she had access to.While her name wasn't well-known when she came to celebrate Shingen's wedding, her martial arts inheritance came directly from the Island Nation's royal family, and she was quite powerful. When even someone like her felt that Harvey was extremely powerful, there was a problem.As for Shouta, who had failed earlier, he could feel his face start to pulse in pain again. He felt lucky that Harvey didn't throw the coffin at him. Otherwise, he would end up worse than Nobita.All the other elites from the other Island Nation schools of martial arts could only watch in disbelief.They knew Harvey was very powerful and could fight with a sword saint for hundreds of rounds. However, they thought Harvey had only won after using a sneak attack. Nobita was one of the three primary disciples of the Shinto
"You…little…bastard…" Leighton finally felt terrified. Someone like him knew little shame—so what if he was called a few names? He could still continue to act like a public figure and judge on the internet, and earn money from all the tragedies.However, if Harvey recorded everything he said just now and put it on the internet, he would become a publicly hated traitor. And then, he would lose all value. Even the Islanders wouldn't want to use him anymore.The moment that thought entered his mind, Leighton pointed at Harvey and roared, "Take… Take him down, Mr. Shingen! You can't let him leave here alive!""Shingen," Harvey said, not wanting to give Leighton any more attention. "I didn't expect a dog you keep can order you around. As the scion of the Shinto Way, you aren't respected at all. Since you've lost your honor, are you going to do what your tradition demands of you and kill yourself?"Shingen narrowed his eyes when he heard those words. Rather than losing himself to anger
"Ha… You want to accuse Mr. Shingen of using this as evidence? A video you got from gods know where?" Leighton scoffed.As expected of someone of his age and experience. Leighton narrowed his eyes, already thinking of a way to deal with this mess. "Someone like Mr. Shingen wouldn't have logically done something like this. It simply proves that you have plotted to crash this wedding for a long time! "While I don't want to acknowledge that the people from my country like to scheme this way, after seeing what you've offered today, I have no choice but to apologize to the world on behalf of all our countrymen. Our country is truly a country of fakes! I'm ashamed that all of you gotta see this. I am so sorry!"After saying those words unapologetically, Leighton glared at Harvey and continued coldly, "Harvey, stop humiliating yourself! Just acknowledge your shameful actions and that you want to crash this wedding. "Is it really that difficult? I know you're jealous of someone as succ
Everyone present at the wedding was stunned when they heard Yvonne's words. They didn't expect the marriage to have such a heinous secret.Crack!When Shingen heard those words from Yvonne, his face instantly darkened. The teacup in his hand broke into pieces.He didn't expect someone to save Sheldon.Didn't the Xaviers promise him that they were going to use Sheldon to force Yvonne to comply? Once Yvonne had married him, wouldn't they kill Sheldon? To make sure that things were done as promised, he even sent dozens of Shinto Way's elites to keep an eye on Sheldon.If Sheldon was saved and his henchmen didn't have any reaction at all…When that thought crossed Shingen's mind, he quickly took out his phone and dialed a few numbers. But then, he quickly crushed his phone. There was no exception. None of the calls went through—which meant something had happened to all the elites he had sent.He had lost even more!What was more, since Yvonne had openly revealed this, it didn't m
"An outsider like you came to my wedding to steal my bride… Who do you think you are?" Shingen said righteously. "Do you think we Islanders can be bullied? Do you think that the Shinto Way can be harassed so easily? I'm telling you right now… No matter what happens to you, the Island Nation will file a protest against Country H. We will demand reparations from your country!" When Shingen said that, he was implying that Harvey was humiliating the entire Island Nation.Hearing what Shingen had to say, all the Islanders were angry at Harvey as well, as if they were facing a common enemy.While this place still belonged to Country H, right now they were standing at the Island Nation embassy. It was a territory belonging to the Island Nation.Everything that Harvey did not only humiliated the Shinto Way, but also the entire Island Nation!The moment that thought crossed their minds, the leader of the Shindan Way's elites who were enemies with Harvey stood up and said maliciously, "H
At this time, Leighton bore the face of one who was questioning Harvey in the name of justice and one who would have his vengeance soon. After all, he had just been kicked out of Country H Commercial by Harvey earlier.He didn't expect to be able to collect that debt so soon. It hadn't even been a week yet, and he already had a chance to humiliate Harvey—to make Harvey suffer a fate worse than death.In such a situation, Leighton was delighted.The men following him were turncoats like him, and all of them looked at Harvey with eyes full of disdain.Harvey raised his head and looked at them with contempt. If there were people he hated more than the Islanders, it had to be these traitorous scumbags. They all believed they were better than others after they became the Islanders' hounds.In truth, they had no use at all other than being used to repulse their own country and people."The assistant-chairman… Oh, wait. I forgot, You're no longer one," Harvey calmly said. "You're now ju
"In this scene, it seems like I'm Paris…" Shingen sighed. "But I believe you're quite familiar with the story, yes? You know'll will happen to Romeo and Juliet in a world where there's no happy ending? You should learn from the stories. Or are you going to fake your death now? If you do that, you'll get the pity of everyone who hears about your story, right? But according to the customs of my country, what you do is called adultery!"It was obvious that not only Shingen wanted to kill Harvey, but he was going to ruin Harvey emotionally. That was why he wasn't in a rush to make any moves. Every word he said was full of mockery.When Harvey heard that, he looked at Shingen. "It's not up to you to decide whether we're committing adultery. As the scion of the Shinto Way, don't you feel ashamed for stopping so low? With your identity and status, you can have any woman you want, but you decide to threaten her. All I can say is that you've lost my respect.""Lost your respect?" Shing
After Harvey had easily defeated Shouta and the great priest, he ignored the others and turned to look at Yvonne. He gave her a faint smile and said, "I'm sorry, Yvonne. I should have come here soon."Yvonne was somewhat stunned. She couldn't even control herself as she rubbed her eyes, thinking that she might be dreaming. In the next second, she immediately jumped into Harvey's arms. Harvey was stunned a little, but after some hesitation, extended his hand to pat her back. "It's fine. I'm here."Their actions, while simple, looked like some kind of TV drama in a place and situation like this.All the Islanders could only watch. Today was the wedding of the century! They didn't expect someone from Country H to cause a ruckus. Not only was Harvey humiliating Shingen, but he was also making Shingen's to-be wife cheat in front of his eyes!Shingen, who was supposed to be furious, was not angry at all. Instead, he simply looked at this scene with a dry smile. Today's events were beyo
Shouta had no choice but to unsheath the shortsword on his belt. He crossed the longsword and shortsword with each other and attempted to retaliate against Harvey using his twin-sword style. It was obvious that when there was nowhere for him to run, he hoped that he could force Harvey back using that. Even if he couldn't, he could at least deal damage to Harvey, couldn't he?Unfortunately, reality was much crueler than what Shouta had envisioned. He overestimated his power and underestimated Harvey's ability. Before the two blades could even reach Harvey, Harvey's palm had already fallen on his face.There was a loud slap, and Shouta's right cheek instantly became swollen as if a truck had rammed into his face. Even when he had secretly learned from Country H the way to absorb the force of an attack, he was in so much pain that he almost cried.When Shouta saw that Harvey was going to press on the assault, he instinctively took a few more steps back. Realizing this, he was filled
