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
"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
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
"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
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
"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
"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
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
Blade took a deep breath. He remembered his own duty and stood in front of Clarion, shielding him. Then, he said with a cold expression on his face, "Madam, Mr. Zeon, my apologies. However, as I'm currently the Assistant Hallmaster and Clarion is my superior, it's my duty to protect him. May I ask how he offended the two of you to the point that he pressed the red button?"Blade put on the face of someone who was only doing his job. He was loyal to his duties.Clarion's expression changed. He did not realize that Blade was a Jackson. However, since Blade chose duty over his personal ties, it was enough to calm Clarion down.Whoosh!At the moment when everything was at a standstill, Zeon suddenly stepped forward and appeared right before the crowd. He immediately slapped Blade's face.Slap!He slapped Blade so hard and loud that Blade stumbled backward as he was not on his guard and almost fell on the floor. Luckily, Clarion reacted quickly and helped Blade up. Otherwise, Blade wo
"I'll give you one last chance to answer me. If you refuse, it won't be my fault for not showing you any mercy." Camellia's pretty face became colder as she stared at Clarion before waving her right hand.After what she did, she saw all the security from Platinum Casino stepped forward, as if they were ready to make a move at any time.Clarion smiled. "Looks like not only have you captured him, it doesn't sound like you're going to release him at all. Looks like I mean nothing to you madam!"Camellia sat down back on the sofa as she folded her legs once more. She raised her chin as she looked at Clarion, coldly saying, "You're right. You mean nothing to me. What? Are you going to go mad? Do it, then! Show it to me! I'm curious to see just what our Young Master Clarion Parker can do to make a scene!"Clarion took a deep breath and coldly replied, "Don't blame me for this, then!"After that, Clarion's right hand pulled out a small red button and pressed it.Vroom!As soon as he di
"All your casino shares?" Camellia stroked her chin as she gave Clarion a meaningful smile. "If I remember, they all add up to hundreds of millions of dollars, and the interest you gain annually is also quite substantial. Without that, your worth as the heir of Parkerville will drop significantly."Looks like Hale probably saved your life. Otherwise, you wouldn't have paid such a price for a garbage like him," Camellia's eyes were judgmental when she said those words. She stared at Clarion curiously, wanting to see something from his actions and expressions.Unfortunately, Clarion maintained his cool and indifference."Madam, it'll take a long time to talk about the relationship between us. Hence, there's no need for me to explain everything here. All I want to ask is, will you accept this trade?"Camellia once again walked over to Clarion's side and bent closer, whispering in his ears. "Of course I'm willing, since you're offering me so much. Unfortunately, since I don't have Hale
When Clarion saw how Camellia pushed her face closer to his face, he had to use so much effort to stop himself from immediately slapping her.Harvey's expression was also getting colder as he stared at Camellia. He had to admit it. If she was willing, she could easily make many people furious. That was why Harvey calmed himself down even more and was not rushing to make his move. Instead, he calmly observed Clarion, wanting to see how he would deal with this.He believed this simple confrontation would make Clarion grow quickly. It would be a good thing if there was someone who could compete with Dan among the heirs of Grand City.Slap!When Camellia saw that Clarion would not touch her, she smiled coldly and once again slapped Clarion on the face."Pathetic! You really are useless! No wonder Dan openly admitted that someone like you is not qualified to be his right-hand man!" Camellia publicly humiliated Clarion's character and dignity.A man who would not even resist was worse
"I also know why you captured Hale. But madam… A simple thought is all it takes. If Hale had mastered the so-called Chapter of Ascension, he would already be invincible in this world. He wouldn't fall into someone's grasp so easily," said Clarion as if he was explaining Camellia for her own good."Not to mention that possessing the Chapter itself is simply going to bring you trouble. I'm also saving you by taking Hale away. I hope you'll agree to my decision. This is really for your own good."Camellia let out a cold laugh when she heard Clarion's reasoning. "Judah, aren't you a little too confident of yourself? You attacked my people, threatened me to release the man, and said this is for my own good? Since when has Parkerville stopped practicing martial arts and started to teach acting skills instead?"Camellia walked over and immediately slapped Clarion on the face. "You fool! Do you think I will act for your sake?"Slap!Clarion could not help but take a few steps back, his fa
"Clarion, you've always been a good boy. You can always read the atmosphere whenever you do something," Camellia said to Clarion with a sweet smile. "The reason you came to my Platinum Casino must be because you're ready to pass your position in Earth Hall back to my son, correct? If that's the case, I don't mind accepting it. But if it's something else, my apologies then. I don't have the strength to care about anything else now that I'm too worried about my son."Zeon gave Clarion a dry smile. "You do understand what she's talking about, right? Now, quickly give us the power over Earth Hall. That way, we have some room for discussion. Otherwise…"Then, Zeon put something thumb-sized on the coffee table. Quite a few people raised their eyebrows when they saw what it was. It was the Martial Art Weapon, Thunderblast!That bastard really was quite crazy. He did not even prepare any precaution when handling something like the Thunderblast, walking around with it so recklessly. Was he n
Before Clarion could even decide, Neve already forced her way forward and shielded Clarion behind her. She yelled at Zeon, "Stop pushing it, Zeon! Enough is enough! Do you really think you can have your way with us?!"Zeon gave a wicked smile and wanted to say something when Camellia, who had been watching things unfold, clapped her hands. She instantly attracted everyone's attention, and her delicate voice rang. "Zeon, that's enough. Clarion is still a member of Grand City, regardless of what had happened. We've raised him for so long, he wouldn't kneel and grovel before another man just because he was being waved at, right?"Trust him. He won't be such a doormat, will he? Not to mention that if you let him lick your shoe, he's going to ruin it. This is something I bought for you from Givenchy, so stop wasting it. Not to mention, if Mr. Otto finds out about this, what would you do if he fainted? You have to pay some respect to our elders, alright?"Then, Camellia gave Clarion a dee
"Now… Do you think I won't have the guts to kill you?" Zeon then spun the pistol in his hand using his finger and then pointed it at Clarion's forehead again. He thought he looked cool doing that.Then, his finger slowly tightened around the trigger, and the spring in the trigger was pulled tight, ready to fire. Even Clarion, who fancied himself as someone who did not fear death, could feel his breathing becoming rapid.It was obvious that Zeon really wanted to kill Clarion as his murderous intention flared.While it was well known that White Peak was filled with all kinds of madmen, they did not expect Zeon to be so terrifying when he lost his mind!Neve already wanted to step forward to stop it, but the muzzle on her head made her scared of making any sudden moves. Meanwhile, Harvey simply looked at what was happening calmly.Now was not the time to make a move. Others might believe that Zeon would really pull the trigger, but Harvey understood much about these heirs who were al
Clarion cleared his throat as he caught everyone's attention before bowing at Camellia. "Hello, madam. Please forgive me for dropping by unannounced."Before Camellia could even say anything, Zeon already smiled coldly at him. He stood up and walked over to Clarion and patted Clarion's face as he said in an icy tone, "And you do realize you're not invited? If you want to apologize, show us your sincerity. You can start with prostrating. I believe the madam won't put too much blame on you."All the men and women sneeringly looked at Clarion. It would be rare to see the heir from a huge family in Grand City prostrate. Quite a few already instinctively pulled out their phone, wanting to take photos of it.When Neve saw what had happened, she frowned. "Are you an idiot, Zeon? Why do you think Clarion will kneel?""He won't?" Zeon scoffed, pulled out a pistol, and immediately put the muzzle on Clarion's head. "Now, will you kneel?"Clarion was also someone with a temper. He glared at Z
