No one could replace Yonathan’s position as the head of the Yorks, not even Harvey when he was at his peak.Even as the Yorks’ Famous Four took over most of the family’s authority, he still managed to retain his position as the family head with ease.This alone made evident how capable Yonathan York was.In fact, rumor had it that he represented the Yorks and fought through numerous major wars and battles in the past.A man like him may not have a widespread reputation in society, but his position among the inner Yorks was unimaginably high.He had complicated relationships with personnels from the armed forces. It was said that he even knew those who were dubbed as gods of war within the military. Ethan Hunt had undeniable control of the Sword Camp of South Light’s military, so Yonathan couldn’t use anyone working under Ethan Hunt. The same could not be said for the other soldiers. Yonathan could easily send any of them to do his bidding.At this moment, Yonathan spoke up wi
Yonathan York’s intense gaze scrutinized Quinton York for a brief moment. Then, he chuckled. “Ah, Quinton. I’ve almost forgotten that you’ve been making decisions for all the major family-related matters in these past few years…”“Now that you already have a plan in mind, naturally I won’t oppose it.”“I dare not accept such a compliment,” Quinton smiled lightly. “I’m just temporarily replacing you and wielding your authority as head of the family. I would gladly hand your power back to you anytime you wish for it.”Yonathan replied carelessly, “Since I’ve already passed my authority over to you, it’d be strange for me to take it back.”“I only hope that you’ll do all you can if you ever decide to face that man.”“Use my name and send a few letters to summon my old comrades, subordinates, and partners here…”At this, Quinton laughed quietly.Finally, the old man was now willing to use his secret connections.Although Quinton was unable to play with Harvey to his heart’s content
Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates treated Harvey York extremely well in recent days.Perhaps it was due to their guilt, or that they felt sorry toward Harvey.Harvey wasn’t fussed. Seeing Mandy doing well was enough to satisfy him.In the evening, Xynthia Zimmer visited the Gardens Residence.“Brother-in-law, let me tell you something big! I have good news!”Xynthia smiled.Harvey asked curiously, “Good news? Are you getting married?”“No way! Stop talking nonsense, okay? I don’t even have a boyfriend. Are you the one who’s going to marry me?”Xynthia alluded to something and glanced at Mandy with a guilty look.“What’s the good news?” Harvey asked. “Hurry up and say it.”Xynthia was ecstatic and hugged Harvey affectionately. “Try guessing, Brother-in-law! If you’re right, I’ll give you a kiss as a reward…”Something strange flashed through Xynthia’s eyes as she spoke.Harvey said indifferently, “I’m not interested in a little girl.”“You…” Xynthia was dissatisfied. She couldn
The next day.On the rare days that Mandy Zimmer was finally free, Xynthia Zimmer clamored about how she wanted to buy a new set of clothes. Thus, Mandy took Harvey York to go shopping with her little sister.Unfortunately, Xynthia had roving eyes and unique aesthetics. Despite going through several shopping malls, she still couldn’t find what she wanted.Although it was quite exhausting for Harvey, he liked this kind of life very much.Everything was simple. Shopping, eating, and drinking. For him, the ordinary life of the common folk was full of sunshine, different from one spent fighting one another in pursuit of power.Unfortunately, destiny dictated that it was impossible for him to enjoy such a life.While he enjoyed the experience, after shopping from early day until night, Harvey couldn’t stand it anymore.“I’m dying. We’ve been shopping the whole day and I still haven’t eaten anything. I can’t go on!”“Anyway, we have to eat first! Otherwise, I won’t shop anymore!”A
“Xynthia? She said she’s going to see her goddess and man-crush. She told us to go and eat first. She’ll come by herself later.”“She’s a big girl. She won’t be lost. Just let her be.”“You can go up first and have a rest.”Mandy Zimmer said, smiling. She saw that Harvey was a little irritable. “Alright.”Harvey didn’t talk too much. Instead, he went straight to the front of the elevator.Just when he was about to enter, a few security guards hurried over.“Both of you can’t get into the elevator!”The security said coldly, blocking them with his hand.Harvey frowned slightly. “Why?”“Today, all elevators can only be used by the staff and crew members. Ordinary people aren’t allowed!” The security guard explained. “This is to prevent paparazzi from getting in.”Harvey said indifferently, “This is the elevator leading to the Spinning Restaurant at Buckwood Tower. It has nothing to do with your event, right?”“Who told you that? Later, some big stars will be going to the Spi
“What do you mean?” Harvey York said indifferently.“The guests today are all major superstars. If something happens to any of them, can a peasant like you afford to pay the consequences?”The security chief questioned.Harvey said coldly, “If I remember correctly, this is a public place, right? Can’t I walk past the stage? None of this makes any sense.”“Normally you can, but not today!”The security chief spat coldly.“You’re arbitrarily taking up public resources. You even forbid the people to pass in a public place! You sure have a lot of power!” Harvey said, his voice deep. “Yes, we have great power. After all, we have big stars backing us! The money that they earned in just a few minutes of showing up is an amount you’d never make in your entire life!”“This is privilege!” The security chief shouted.Harvey sneered, “And what if I insist going over?”“You can try! This area is blocked off!”Soon, more than a dozen security guards came over. A total of thirty people s
Originally, Harvey’s expression was normal. When Yuna spoke to him in that way, he couldn’t help but reply in a frosty tone, “I just wanted to take the elevator to go up for a meal. You said that the area is blocked off and you wouldn’t let me go up.”“Fine, I’m not eating anymore.”“Now I want to go out, and you’re still blocking my way. What do you want me to do? Do you want me to fly out from here?”At Harvey’s words, Yuna spat coldly, “I don’t care how, but you better get out right this instant!”“Get out, is it?” Harvey nodded. “Let’s see who’ll be doing that!”When they heard Harvey’s bragging, Yuna and the rest burst into laughter.This guy was kicking them out? Was he out of his mind?Just when the managers were about to let security drive Harvey away, a few stars standing not far away came over. The fans began to cheer.Yuna hurriedly walked over towards the approaching stars.The man and woman who were leading at the front were extremely dazzling.Even as they stood
At this moment… Carter Coen was dumbfounded.Yvette Yanes was dumbfounded.Even Yuna Shaw was slightly startled.Doubly so for the security guards. In that very second, all of them fell into hushed silence.The middle-aged man who was acting so respectful toward Harvey was not just any person, but was in fact the general manager of Buckwood Tower. His position was equivalent to the owner of Buckwood Tower, yet he was so respectful in front of this man.Most importantly, those standing behind him could see his cold sweat soaking his clothes.This was simply unimaginable! Harvey had asked the person in charge of Buckwood Tower to get down within three minutes. In the end, the man really did come down within three minutes.Previously, Yuna dared to be arrogant in front of Harvey. Now, she dared not.She and the other celebrities’ managers knew how things worked in this circle. They understood all too well the power of money. In front of ordinary people, they had privilege an
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
