The night was especially dark tonight.Harvey knitted his eyebrows when he arrived at the Judd family residence.The entire residence was covered in darkness, seemingly dilapidated. As the wind howled, he almost thought this was a haunted location and all manners of ghosts and spirits would show themselves."Master Harvey! You're finally here!" When Harvey was at the entrance, Marlee crawled out of the residence, her hair disheveled. She did not care about manners at all and simply dragged Harvey to the back of the residence immediately without any care.Harvey saw many members of the Judd family inside, but their faces were all panic-stricken and pale. All of them were shaking; some had even collapsed on the ground, convulsing. Some even had white foam coming out from their mouths.What was happening in the residence seemed apocalyptic."Harvey… No… Master Harvey… After you left, Eridan set up and began his ritual. Everything went well initially, but as soon as the six hours you
Reginald was already lying on the ground. But even when he was shaking, he yelled sternly, "Be gentler! My wife isn't getting any younger. What will I do if something happens to her?!"It was obvious that Reginald and his wife had a great relationship. Otherwise, he would not be so nervous.Meanwhile, Veer felt constrained as he was commanding the security guards. On one hand, he had to ensure the ropes were strong enough to keep his mother under control. On the other hand, he had to ensure the only security guards left would not touch her and collapse.If that happened, the Judd family would be history.When Marlee saw the chaos, she rushed in and quickly yelled, "Dad! I've brought Master Harvey here!""Master Harvey!" Veer hollered, as if he had seen his savior. "I've made the wrong decision earlier, but please forgive me and don't use it against me. Please, do something and help my family!"Even Reginald asked Harvey for help with a gentler tone. "Please, Master Harvey. I've m
At Zimmer’s Villa in Niumhi. It was beaming with lights. That night was Senior Zimmer’s seventieth birthday party, and it was filled with numerous guests. All of his children and grandchildren presented him with gifts and said in unison, “We wish that Senior Zimmer is always blessed with good health and long life.” Senior Zimmer appeared quite rosy and energetic as he sat on his chair. He replied, “Good. All of you are indeed quite obedient. I’m very happy today, so I’ll grant each and everyone of you a wish! Just tell me what you want.” “Grandpa, I want an apartment near the ocean. It’s not expensive and it’s only over a million dollars…” “Grandpa, I want a Chanel limited edition bag…” “Grandpa, I want a BMW sports car…” “Grandpa, I want a Rolex watch…” “...” “Fine. I’ll grant every one of your wishes!” Senior Zimmer gave them his promise without any hesitation. The young children who asked for the gifts were overjoyed. They nearly kneeled down on the floor in gratitude. Lo
“It’s a message from the Yorks.” Harvey frowned slightly. The Yorks was the most influential family in South Light. At first, Harvey had been the rightful heir. But three years ago, somebody in the family wrongly accused him and claimed that he had embezzled the company’s funds. Therefore, his identity as their heir was eliminated.The entire York family had the same opinion and Harvey was disowned instantly. Furthermore, his parents were directly sent abroad and he had never met them since. “Bullsh*t! The truth is I have nothing but only twenty dollars in my pocket. The family needs financial support. What's the point of looking for me?”As he was thinking about that, he received another message on his phone. “Sir, I’m begging you now. Please help us! Didn’t you purchase some stocks of a gold mine three years ago? Recently, someone found that there’s a great amount of gold in that gold mine. Now, the stock price of that gold mine has increased tremendously!”“Now, the company’s fu
Half an hour later, Harvey reached Mandy’s company. As he was about to enter through the entrance, a bodyguard stopped him with a stun baton all of a sudden. The bodyguard said coldly, “Get lost! We don’t welcome beggars here.”Harvey had just woken up, and he did not manage to clean himself up first. Besides, he was wearing a T-shirt and a pair of shorts with patches all over them. He did seem just like a beggar by the road. However, Harvey was used to that kind of thing. He smiled and said, “Mister, I’m here to send a document to my wife.”“Do you have a wife given the way you look?” The bodyguard was suspicious. “Is it the cleaning lady—Zara or the worker who works at the back kitchen—Lily?” “My wife is Mandy,” said Harvey.The bodyguard was stunned. Soon, he broke into laughter. “I see. You’re the son-in-law of the Zimmers.” He could not cease laughing. Harvey shook his head. It never occurred to him that he was quite famous.“That’s enough. Hand me the document. Miss Zi
“An explanation? Why should I give you an explanation?” Harvey said coldly. “First, Mandy is my wife. Please stay away from her. If you want to make a scene, go someplace else!“Second, if my wife loves roses, I’ll buy them for her! She’s so gorgeous. How could such plain and cheap things suit her? I’ll send her the roses from Prague tonight itself!” “What the f*ck! Are you mentally retarded or just plain stupid? One rose from Prague costs more than a thousand dollars. I heard that you were asking for a scooter from Senior Zimmer yesterday. You’re just a good-for-nothing. Even if you sell your kidney out, you couldn’t even afford to buy one of those. Why are you so daring, putting up a show here?” Don appeared cold. He enjoyed a privileged status in York Enterprise. ‘How can a son-in-law like him talk to me like this?’ Besides, the thing which infuriated him the most was the incident in which Harvey smashed his flowers and dragged Mandy into the elevator. ‘What the hell did the
“Sir, I’ll report to the chief immediately. You…” “Don’t try to bargain with me. Otherwise, I’ll ruin the entire York Enterprise!”Before the person at the other end of the phone could speak, Harvey hung up the phone immediately.... In the Gold Coast Villa area, every villa was specifically designed by an internationally famous designer. From the type of ceramic tiles up until the type of trees, they were all chosen with great care. It was indeed not a place where one could afford to buy even though they were rich. At that moment, Harvey was sitting casually on the sofa at the balcony. Across him was the current chief of the Yorks—Yonathan York. He was Harvey’s uncle, and he was the one who asked his driver to pick Harvey up and gave him a ride to the villa just now. Looking at the carefree Harvey, Yonathan smiled and said, “Harv, we haven’t met each other for so many years now. You seem so much more handsome and energetic…” “Uncle, we don’t have to beat around the bush
“Don?”Harvey was stunned for a moment. He then smiled, ‘This guy is just a dog raised by the York Enterprise. It was only a matter of time before he got kicked out.’“Mother, I won’t get a divorce. Even if we are getting a divorce, this is none of your business. I hope you don’t interfere in our affair.” Harvey laughed and said this sentence before riding on his beloved electric bike and left.“Harvey, you’re nothing!” Lilian shuddered with anger. She had almost driven over Harvey with her car. However, she could only suppress her anger and quickly left after seeing a crowd surrounding them.…Mandy walked to the front desk of the company during after-hours.She then saw two girls laughing while saying something and many employees were watching.“Miss Zimmer’s husband is a loser. He said that he would give her roses from Prague. How dare he say that? Didn’t he look at himself in the mirror? Not to mention that he rode an electric bike, even his slippers were broken. A guy like

Vaughn blinked when he heard what Rachel had just said.Oh, damn!Even the women who served Harvey could be so full of pride? Just one move?Vaughn wanted to see how one move would be enough to take so many people down, especially when all of them were armed with dangerous weapons. Even if they were all to kneel and wait for Rachel to give them a slap, one move would not be enough, right?Harvey did not answer Vaughn as he looked at his confused look. Instead, Harvey simply signaled to him to watch. They simply looked at Rachel strolling toward the so-called fighters from the School of Astronomers. In the next instant, she closed her eyes. Her right hand pressed against the hilt of the blade on her waist. She instantly pulled the blade out in a flash, revealing a glint of silver light.And in a moment, all that could be heard within the courtyard was screams of pain as Vaughn looked in shock. All the fighters from the School of Astronomers had blood trails on their wrists or nec
Harvey blinked, stupefied. "They managed to expand the business of geology into something like that? I wonder what the founders of the School of Astronomers would think if they found out about this. Will they crawl out from their graves? Don't any of the top families know about this? Why do all of you still treat them as master geomancers?"Vaughn curled his lips. "Of course we know. But the School of Astronomers still held a lot of influence. No one was willing to reveal them for who they really are. Not to mention that they possess some great skills, and Eridan wasn't really someone without skills. That was how he managed to get the reputation of being the top geomancer in Wolsing…"Harvey nodded and glared at the leading man. "Looks like Eridan is very upset with me today for him to seek me out like this."However, almost six hours had passed, and the hour that Harvey spoke of was quickly arriving. To think that Eridan did not put his whole effort into preparing for it and instea
When Harvey, Vaughn, Tyson, and the others sat to have some coffee and prepared to order some food deliveries for a quick meal, a loud engine roar could be heard from outside the estate.Then, the door into the estate was kicked open and dozens of men in black walked in. All of them had vicious looks. It was obvious that they were not there to make friends.They all marched over when they saw Harvey and the others having coffee in the courtyard. Next, a slender man walked over with a machete and scanned the surroundings. He coldly asked, "Which one of you is Harvey York?"Show yourself so we can kill you. Don't make us hurt the innocents. I'll give you one minute. If you don't show up, don't blame me if I kill everyone here!"Then, the man holding a machete signaled and waved his hand. All the men in black behind him even pointed bolts hidden under their sleeves at Harvey and the others. Some even whipped out their firearms and showed their licenses, trying to demonstrate just how
Once Harvey was back in his estate, he did not dwell on what happened at the Judd family residence today. Instead, he reflected on what had happened in the past few days.Firstly, Vaughn was ready to take over the Thompsons of Wolsing with the support of Tyson and the others. Everything needed to be done before the end of Hector's mourning period, or at the very least on the day itself.Secondly, nothing could have been done with the Country H Commercial Group. Elric would not easily give up the post of the next chairman. Not only was this for his own benefit, but the fact that Emery wanted it was enough to make Elric do everything in his power to.Thirdly, it was about the Country H Martial Arts Alliance. He had already crippled one of the so-called Four Kings of the Alliance and took him as his own. No one would trouble him for the time being. The only thing he needed to do was to wait for the full moon's night, and he could finish everything in one swoop by crippling those from t
"That's enough, Veronica!" Marlee's face hardened. "No matter how good Master Eridan is, that's not a reason to treat Master Harvey like this. Not only did he heal Grandma in the first place, but we also have to respect him because he's willing to come to our family this time. We…""Enough!" Reginald was getting slightly annoyed, so he immediately made the decision. "It looks like I have no say in this despite being your grandfather, Marlee? Since you have so much to talk about, you can leave too. Otherwise, you'll take full responsibility if your grandmother's rest is interrupted!"Someone like Reginald knew how to humiliate someone without even pointing his finger at them. While he was scolding Marlee, he was actually humiliating Harvey. Since someone of his age hated the youths, who were so energetic and thought highly of their capabilities.Perhaps he did have some talent, but how could his talents compare to a true expert? It was as if he was the only one who could deal with th
"How dare you!" Eridan bellowed, his body shaking with anger. "You have a sharp tongue and like to make things up! I'm willing to bet on the reputation of the School of Astrologers that she will be fine for six days and nights!"I will use the Cleansing Technique in the arts of Geomancy to cleanse the evil spirits within her one more time. Then, I will slightly change the configuration before demolishing that mountain shrine! Everything will be solved then!"Then, Eridan pointed his finger at Harvey's face and said, "Stop criticizing my expertise when you do nothing, boy!""That's right. Stop being so proud over nothing," Veronica said to Harvey, having no liking for him at all. "Don't think I don't know just what kind of personality plebeians like you have. Do you think you can do anything you want, and will your status rise once you're acquainted with my family?"In the end, you're just making nonsense that won't be able to solve the problem and make it even worse. Only a piece o
"I'm willing to swear upon my School's name, Ms. Marlee, that I’m the only one who has the power to help the Judds of Wolsing," vowed Eridan with a puff at Marlee."Of course, if someone within your family doesn't trust me, it's fine. Have someone else deal with this, and I shall immediately take my leave. From now on, our school will never step into the Judd family residence, so you better think twice!" said Eridan coldly.It was apparent to all that Eridan was forcing the Judds of Wolsing to make a choice. If there were anyone who believed in Harvey, he would leave. The School of Astronomers had its pride to consider! His reputation as the best Geomancer in Wolsing was not something that was made up either. Whoever dared to question him was to challenge his entire school."Tell your daughter to leave with that charlatan!" Reginald stared at Veer without letting Veer have a chance to say anything. "Otherwise, everything will be too late if Master Eridan leaves because of his bad mo
