“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
Shock!Everyone was shocked!No one expected that Carter Coen would suddenly go crazy.In a way, this was to be expected. As a popular star, he had always been held up high by people wherever he went.Even some CEOs had asked him to be the face for their products and treated him nicely.After his initial shock, Carter came to the conclusion that Harvey, the CEO was nothing remarkable.Harvey smiled. “Do you think no one will come here without you?”“With just a word, you could make your fans ruin this place?”“Are you threatening me?”“Am I threatening you?” Carter cursed. “Fool, can’t you tell?” “Interesting.” Harvey smiled. He glanced at the general manager and said casually, “I’m asking you. Who rented the place out for them to use…?”The general manager wiped away his cold sweat and stammered, shuddering all the while, “CEO, we didn’t rent…we borrowed them the place to use…”“Meaning, it’s free?”“Yes.”“Is there a contract?”“No…”The general manager was a littl
Not a moment later, Ethan Hunt brought in a dozen of well-trained sergeants to the front of the stage.Under the horrified gazes of the group of stars, they approached Harvey.Ethan Hunt knew Harvey’s habit. He didn’t speak even after Ethan bowed. Instead, his cold eyes fell on Carter and the celebrities. Apparently, these people would be taken down immediately the moment Harvey gave the order.Army?Were they truly from the army?Carter, who was feeling complacent not too long ago, was now filled with confusion.He never expected that the man in front of him wasn’t just your run-of-the-mill CEO.With one random call, the military came and secured the premises. As of now, his fans were being sent out one by one…At this moment, even if he wanted to get away, it would be difficult.Let alone calling his fans to destroy the mall!The people in the army were different from the police inspectors. Inspectors might still care about public opinion, but the army couldn’t be bothe
In the next second Harvey began to speak, but his tone was icy.“You begged me because my status is higher than you, my position is higher than yours, and I’m more powerful than you. Isn’t that right?”“Yes, yes, yes. This is natural…” Yuna nodded so fast, looking like she was pounding garlic.“But if I don’t have this status and position, wouldn’t you have sent me to the police by now?”“If I were an ordinary person, then I don’t even have the right to walk out of this mall?”“You’re just celebrities, but you act so arrogant and domineering. You’re not that popular and famous, but you thought you are upper-class elites?!”“What a bully! How could people like you be called a divine man? Goddess?”“And you even had the audacity to lecture me about privileges? There are more people with privileges these days. If everyone is the same as you and think that they’re the king of the world over an insignificant achievement, wouldn’t society fall into a mess?!”“It’s okay for you to hol
Finally, Harvey York turned to Carter Coen.“To be a man, we stick to our words. If you want to destroy my mall, just do it. If you refuse to act on your words, you’re nothing but a sissy!”Carter’s face turned pale, and the corner of his eyes twitched.Indeed, he was a flower boy. His biggest taboo was someone calling him a sissy.However, the one who said it was this man. He didn’t dare to argue, and could only nod and bow.In the end, Harvey left and went to the Spinning Restaurant to have a meal. If he didn’t, he would certainly starve to death.Ethan Hunt also led his team and left. Everyone dispersed.The shopping mall was quickly restored its original order.Soon, Xynthia Zimmer also arrived at the Spinning Restaurant and found Harvey.“Brother-in-law, you didn’t see it just now! It seems that a big shot was here. He wanted to go out but was stopped by those security guards!”“Then, he immediately canceled all the commercial performances in Buckwood. I won’t be able to
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
