But if Cecilia knew that the young and handsome new CEO was helping her hold her bag now, what would her thoughts be? Mandy looked at Cecilia seriously. After a short while, she nodded and said, “Yes, you do have a great chance. But there’s a problem. You have a lot of rivals…” “Eh?” “Although I haven't met the CEO yet, I've met the others. His secretary, manager, and even the female receptionist are quite sexy and charming. They’re near to him, so they have a greater chance at that. How about you? If only you go to their company and help to clean up their place, and you can go and clean the CEO’s desk every day too. If not, you won’t stand a chance!” Mandy said. “Good idea! As expected, you know me too well. I’ll go and apply for the job tomorrow…” The two women laughed cheerfully. Now, they had become quite a beautiful image on the street, and even Harvey who stood behind them was ignored too. As they wandered around, they reached the area where only luxury goods were o
“So if we’re not going to buy that, we can’t try that on. Is that so?” Harvey smiled. It was indeed the first time he had met that kind of employee. If they did not try on the products such as the clothes and shoes, how could they buy them? Mandy looked slightly uncomfortable beside them. It was apparent that the employee looked down on them. It was a fact that her company had been down on its feet recently. Finally, her company was back on its track with much difficulty with the eight hundred thousand dollars which Harvey obtained. She was certainly not able to bring herself to spend around sixteen thousand dollars on a pair of shoes.“Harvey, let’s go then. We can go and look around at some other places…” Mandy said awkwardly. Seeing Mandy’s attitude, Harvey nodded slightly. After all, there were a lot of good brands in that shopping center. Since the employees at that shop were not behaving properly, they could go to another shop. As long as they had money, they did not have to
Those employees’ legs became shaky all of a sudden. All of them squatted on the floor, especially the one who had acted quite arrogantly just now. At that moment, she even trembled for a while and said, “I’m sorry, sir. I’m so sorry…” In that instant, even the owner of the shop rushed out swiftly. He even appeared all respectful to Harvey, nodded his head and bowed to Harvey. That was such an important and powerful guest. Not to mention whether a guest like that bought things there. Even if he did not buy anything there, the employees did not dare to talk any nonsense. “You don’t have to apologize to me. All the commission will be given to this beautiful lady.” Harvey said and pointed at another employee who acted quite polite just now. “Yes! Sure!” That employee nodded ceaselessly. As to the employee who mocked at Harvey just now, her face had turned pale. It was a deal worth one hundred fifty thousand dollars, and the commission would be around a few thousand dollars. Now, she
After providing them the address of the advertising company and Mandy’s shoe size, Harvey and the others left directly. The employees did not dare to raise their heads, and the other customers there were in awe. They did not know what kind of person Harvey was. How could he keep such a low profile? But he was quite frightening too. When they reached outside, Mandy said softly, “Harvey, what happened exactly? Why do you have so much money? Besides, what’s wrong with that person just now? Why did he become so scared after he saw your credit card?” Cecilia stared at Harvey too. She sized him up. If she did not figure that out, she might not be able to sleep that night. Harvey shrugged and said, “The credit card is not mine. It belongs to that classmate of mine. I used it just now, and will treat it as an advance payment of my salary. You don’t have to worry. My salary is quite high.“As to why they became so frightened when they saw the card card, maybe my classmate is no ordinar
“Mandy, we have never met each other since we graduated.” Wyatt looked at Mandy intensely. “If it was someone else, certainly I can’t do anything about that. But it’s you, I’ll definitely think of a way for you. Wait for a moment here… “By the way, this is…” Wyatt glanced at Harvey in confusion. ‘This man wears such cheap clothes. How poor and pathetic he looks! Why is he here by their side? Is he some kind of servant at her home?’ Cecilia laughed softly, and said in a low voice, “It seems like Mr. Johnson has been staying abroad for so long. You’re unaware of the news of former classmates like us. This is Mandy’s live-in husband. He’s been married to Mandy for three years now, but he doesn’t get to touch even her fingertips…” “Is that so? It turns out that you’re the Zimmers’s live-in son-in-law. You’re the legendary good-for-nothing! I’ve heard about you.” Wyatt broke into laughter. “But we don’t welcome people like you here. Please leave. This isn’t the place where you shoul
Wyatt fell into silence. He knew perfectly well that his face was still slightly swollen. How could he have the capability to let the restaurant make an exception? But it was the goddess from his university life—Mandy who stood before him now. Since Mandy thought that he was the one who helped them, he did not have to give an explanation for that. He would just treat that as some kind of beautiful misunderstanding. “Two goddesses, please, this way. We’ve arranged the biggest VIP private room here in Northland for you. Some random live-in son-in-law please don’t come in then. I’m afraid that you’re unable to afford to spend here.” Wyatt smiled faintly and said in a gentlemanly manner. Harvey glanced at Wyatt and said coldly, “Mr. Johnson, are you sure that you’re the one who got to arrange for that private room?” “If it’s not me, could it be a loser like you?” Wyatt smiled coldly and said. “Harvey!” Mandy said seriously beside them, “Mr. Johnson is so kind as to get a private
As Wyatt was still trying to convince Mr. Lewis, this so-called Mr. Lewis had already walked to the VIP room door as he pushed open the door.It didn’t take long for his eyes to land on Mandy. He got so excited that he flicked his hair, posed in a condescending and confident manner, and gave a look to his subordinate behind him.The subordinate immediately knew what to do, as he knocked on the room door politely and walked straight toward Mandy.“Greetings, miss…” the subordinate greeted after clearing his throat.“Hmm? What do you want?” Mandy replied while trying to understand the situation as she was confused as to why these strangers barged in all of a sudden.The subordinate gulped after seeing Mandy’s beautiful face while imagining that this girl in front of him would be accompanying him after his boss was done playing with her.As he was having those lewd thoughts, the look in his eyes started to become more perverted, but he managed to remember his task. “Actually, we’ve
Although his thug-like aura didn’t match his outfit, everyone could feel his confidence from his expression.At that moment, there were already quite a number of people watching. Some of them went closer and recognized Mr. Lewis.“Oh look, it’s Mr. Zayn Lewis, approaching women as usual. Such a charmer.”“You guys are probably unaware, but this mall is basically Mr. Lewis’s spot for hunting beautiful girls, as he believes that no women can resist the temptation of money.”“The influencer previously also seemed to be hard to impress, but in the end she was still conquered by Mr. Lewis before he even spent a million dollars on her. I heard she even addressed Mr. Lewis as ‘Daddy’ and eventually followed him back home for ‘tutoring’.”“It would be so lucky to be his subordinate as Mr. Lewis would leave his finished ‘businesses’ for him. I envy him so much!”“It looks like we’re gonna have a great show today.”“That woman is so gorgeous, it makes me want to save her at some point.”
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
