For Yonathan York, the fact that his own blood-related son was noticed by a big shot like Ethan Hunt was definitely something to be celebrated.There might even be a possibility for his own son to take over his position as the family head in the future.But it was not good news at all for Quinton York on the other hand.In his eyes, Ethan Hunt was someone honorable who’s invited through Yonathan’s connections.And now that Ethan specifically mentioned Wayne York, so what could this possibly mean?However, those were just thoughts that just briefly flashed across Yonathan and Quinton’s minds, they felt more excited than ever at the present moment.Now that Ethan said something like that, no matter who he was going to support amongst the Yorks, it’s already certain that he’s showing support to the York family.The spectators down the stage wouldn’t care about the internal conflict within the York family.What they saw was just the Yorks showing off right that moment.Showing off
Not long after, with Yonathan and Quinton York at his side, Ethan Hunt reached the middle seat which was left vacant specifically for him.Yonathan spoke up with a smile, “Lieutenant Colonel Hunt! This seat is specifically reserved for you, no one apart from you in this whole room is worthy to sit here.”“Have a seat, Lieutenant Colonel Hunt!” The South Light’s second-in-command also made a gesture of welcoming him to sit down with all smiles on his face.For him, it was necessary to maintain a good relationship with Ethan Hunt.Hearing their words, however, Ethan remained silent and knitted his eyebrows together.He didn’t sit down right that instant nor moved an inch of muscle, he set his eyes on the seat before him with an unpredictable gaze.At that moment, everyone became a bit panicked.Especially the Yorks, who couldn’t really comprehend the situation before their eyes already.A big shot like him had to be treated with care, the same goes for the York family.Which was
Ethan Hunt chuckled. “The only one who deserves to sit here in this room is definitely not me…”“Is it someone else?”“Who is that person? Please enlighten us, Lieutenant Colonel Hunt!” Yonathan York asked.“Hmm, if that person doesn’t stand up himself, I wouldn’t dare to speak his name at all.”Ethan had a mysterious look on his face.“Moreover, he’s already in the room and I can see him!”“What?! There’s someone whose status is even higher than Lieutenant Colonel Hunt in this room?”“And the key point is someone who holds a position as high as Lieutenant Colonel Hunt doesn’t even dare to inform us who he is?”At that moment, the whole scene turned chaotic, even Grandma York who was in the private room couldn’t help but peeked out of the gaps between the windows.She also wanted to know what kind of big shot had arrived at Buckwood.It wouldn’t be someone important from Wolsing, would it?“Lieutenant Colonel Hunt, pardon for my rudeness but may I know what kind of title doe
Not long after, rows after rows of people stood up automatically with the hope that the one man mentioned by Ethan Hunt was someone they knew.Even Rosalie Naiswell and Bruce Cloude were amongst them, they too stuck their heads and looked around, wanting to see who’s that person!The whole room of people became restless, especially the last few rows of people when Ethan marched past the middle rows.Harvey York was the only one looking indifferent, as steady as a mountain, and as motionless as a rock.Seeing this, Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t help but jest, “Brother-in-law, don’t tell me that the person Lieutenant Colonel Hunt was talking about is you.”Harvey said with a carefree tone, “Mhm, you’ve guessed it right.”But Xynthia simply chuckled, thinking that her own brother-in-law was actually messing with her.In a short while, the group of people reached the last few rows.Those people sitting in the last rows all became excited as they all stood up.The Yorks all seemed restle
Was Brother-in-law really the one?!At this moment, Xynthia could feel nothing but amazement and shock and also utter disbelief.All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes were looking over toward them in unison.Harvey York and Xynthia Zimmer became the spotlight of the whole room!Xynthia felt as though she couldn't breath.It was as if the time had stopped and the air turned frozen.All reasoning escaped her brain leaving nothing but an empty void.Xynthia thought she was already trembling all over, she wanted to ask Harvey again but could not even muster the energy to open her mouth.This man was simply too mysterious!Thunk, thunk, thunk… Ethan stepped out suddenly at this moment, the army boots creating a rhythmic marching sound against the thick carpeting.The sound hit everyone instantly, and it felt like a hammer hammering on their chest.This sound reeled everyone back to reality from their absent-mindedness.Looking at the only man and a young woman left in the back row,
Shocking!Thrilling!Incredible!This was certainly the most memorable thing in the lives of those people present at the birthday ceremony!Yuna Shaw, Yvette Yanes, Carter Coen and others never expected to see Harvey York here.Moreover, he was the one true ruler in their midst!Ethan Hunt did not give others a chance to be impressed. Instead, he bowed and said, “Chief Instructor, please go to the seat at the forefront with your subordinates!“That seat is yours!“Only that seat is worthy for you!”Harvey slightly nodded, and said nonchalantly, “Alright.”At this moment, almost everyone came around eventually.Ethan slowly turned around, looking at the people from the Yorks, and said, “Yonathan York, Quinton York, don’t you want to know who this is?“I’ll enlighten you!“This person had temporarily left Buckwood three years ago.“At that time, he held the title, Prince York!“He finally returns three years later. If he’s willing to hold the title, he would still be Princ
Rosalie Naiswell was still suspicious of Harvey York a while ago.She thought that he was talking the big talk about everything he had mentioned. She was about to go back and persuade her grandfather not to be deceived by this guy in the future.However, at this moment, she suddenly did not know what expression she should show.If she was confused before, she was even more confused now.Harvey’s indifferent gaze fell onto Bruce Cloude again.Harvey just glanced at him, there were no words spoken.However, Bruce broke out in a cold sweat at Harvey’s glance.His body was completely out of control the next moment. He instantly kneeled on to the ground.Harvey never looked at him again after that.He was just unworthy!After walking slowly to the forefront, Ethan Hunt pulled the chair for Harvey backward. Harvey then sat down casually.Next to him were Ethan and Xynthia, and to their sides were Kyle Quinlan, Yoel Graham, and others!They all figured out when Harvey appeared.T
Soon, there were only two groups of people left in the scene.On one side were people from the Yorks.On the other were Harvey York, Ethan Hunt, and Xynthia Zimmer.The expressions of the members of the Yorks eventually returned to normal.The two words, “Prince York”, were indeed stressful for them and had caused them great anxiety!However, as the top family in South Light, the Yorks certainly had their pride to uphold.Who would have cared if he’s Prince York?Three years ago, they could force him out of Buckwood. Three years later, sure enough, they would be able to do it again.***There was a smell of incense in the room below the stage.Queenie York was wearing plain clothes, kneeling on one side and her face remained still.Grandma York slowly opened her eyes at this moment.She held the dragon-head cane studded with various jewels in her right hand, and slowly got up.“That unfilial son, is he really here?”The old lady took a deep breath. Her face which was full
Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Early?"Yvonne nodded. "Correct. According to our sources, he went to a rest stop about 10 miles away from Wolsing to pick up someone."Harvey was quite curious. "Who can make Linus so passionate to welcome? Who is this person?"Yvonne massaged her forehead. "Speaking of which, this man can be considered your subordinate in a way. Unfortunately, it's fate that he won't be under your control."Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds?""That's right. The scion of the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds in Parkerville, Dan Parker. Previously, he requested to marry someone from the Wright family, and the Wright family had officially responded. He'll soon be the son-in-law of the Wright family," Yvonne explained sternly.Harvey was slightly stunned. "The son-in-law of the Wright family? Which means…Sienna's fiancé?"Meanwhile, at the rest stop 10 miles away… The rest stop which was usually quite plain was lavishly
Harvey had been freed, but there was still some paperwork that needed to be done.Harvey was patient, as if he really wanted the key to the city and prevent Country A from trying to stir up another storm with him. He was very cooperative throughout the entire process.Only once all the paperwork was done did Soren sigh in relief. "Leave the rest to us, Harvey. In the next few days, stay discreet so no one will get you into any problem.""What? I've already proven that I'm innocent. What kind of problems will there be?" Harvey said curiously.Soren didn't want to hide anything from Harvey and said with a bitter smile, "I won't lie to you. While the people who died were from Country H, they had already obtained permanent residency in Country A, which meant that they were a part of Country A as well. Just today, Country A's side had already given us pressure through their embassy."Logically speaking, we have to find the culprit as soon as possible. However, all the evidence we've co
Ten minutes later, Soren personally asked Harvey to join him in the director's office. After a pot of hot tea had been brewed and poured, he sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for today. It's my subordinates' blunders. He did whatever he wanted already despite just being promoted. I'll be sure to make up to you."Harvey smiled. "I can understand that with your family's size, you'll inadvertently end up with a few people with questionable behavior. You better keep an eye on things and don't let one person ruin everything for you and your family. Wolsing is different from Golden Sands. You have to be extremely careful when you're here."Harvey's words were cold, but it was enough to make Soren think about it. Meanwhile, Garrick, who was standing there with his arms next to him, almost fell on his knees as he felt his legs lose strength. Since simple words from Harvey had already ended his future."Of course… It's best if someone can correct themselves after knowing the errors of their
"Ha! What an idiot! Who does he think he is? If he really is someone important, why is he even here?" Snowe sneered.The only emotion Snowe had for Harvey was disdain. She despised men who have no capabilities at all the most.Garrick and the others went to the main hall of the precinct. Everyone from Country A had been told to go home. At this moment, a row of cars with flags drove toward the entrance of the precinct. Judging from the car plates and the flags on the car, it was obvious the person inside the car was someone important within the police force. Very quickly, the door was opened. Garrick and the others saw the most important and newly promoted man within the police force in Wolsing—Soren Braff, ranked two within the Braff family.There were several high-level members of the police force with him in white uniforms, and all of them exuded an incredibly powerful presence. The moment Garrick and the others saw Soren appearing, they quickly greeted him with a smile."Wh
Hearing Harvey's conversation, the beautiful female officer said in disdain, "What? Are you pretending to contact someone from the Braff family? Do you think that's enough to scare the director? Our director is someone important within the family! If you really know the people from the Braff family, why wouldn't he know you?"I'm telling you right now. If you really did call someone from the Braff family, I, Snowe Leo, will eat this phone right in front of everyone!"In the beginning, Garrick was taken aback as well. But after he quickly glanced at the number on the screen, he smiled coldly. "You probably didn't know this, but aside from the number of my family's patriarch, I've saved the number of everyone important in the family. Do you want to trick me using just a random number? You're quite bold!""Really, now?" Harvey said with a smile. "At the very least, you know that you don't have the right to know his number. In that case, I'll help you delete that number. It won't be g
"Ha… I'm the director of the precinct in the Third Ring, and I'm not worth your time?" Garrick was so angry that he was laughing. "You made yourself sound like you're someone very capable. Come on, show me just how capable you are right now!"Garrick immediately grabbed his phone and tossed it at Harvey. "Come on, make a call! If you can find someone who can overpower me, I'll bend my knee right now."The other two officers also looked at Harvey as if they were looking like a fool. "Forget the fact that you're just an ex-live-in son-in-law… Even if you really did become a CEO through your own abilities, what is there to be proud of?" the female officer said with a smirk. In her eyes, Harvey was just a loser. If a man like him wanted to pursue her, he would have already kicked him to the rub.Harvey didn't waste his breath and immediately picked up the phone, giving Eliel Braff a call. Very quickly, the call came through and a stern voice came from the other side. "Who is thi
"Your deduction is quite interesting. Sounds like a detective show, to be honest," Harvey said calmly. "Unfortunately, I have a clear conscience. Why should I admit to a crime I never committed?""Not you?" The female officer slammed the table again. "If you didn't do it, why are you so willing to cooperate with us? You're telling me it isn't because you're feeling guilty? Harvey York, you have to understand that the crime you committed is very serious, especially when the person you killed is from Country A!"If the Embassy sends a specialist to interfere with this investigation, you're going to be in trouble. You better confess when the precinct can still help you. Otherwise, I'm afraid there's nothing you can change no matter how much you regret it in the future."Their phones would buzz every once in a while, which meant new information coming in. From the new information, not only was Harvey the live-in son-in-law of the Jeans of Mordu, one of the top ten families, but he was a
"A lawyer?" Garrick scoffed. "Forget about a lawyer, it's pointless even if you find a wizard! I've already read your information. The CEO of Sky Corporation? Maybe in other cities, the CEO of a public company deserves some respect, but don't forget that this is Wolsing, the country's seat of power! There are plenty of CEOs walking around here!"When you're in Wolsing, it doesn't matter who you are, or what kind of special identity you have. Those who commit crimes here will be punished! You won't be given any special treatment!"Garrick then looked at Harvey as if he had an advantage over him. "Confess the crimes you've committed! That way, I can grant you some leeway. Otherwise, you'll suffer a terrible death!"Harvey merely looked at Garrick briefly and said, "You didn't interrogate me, and you didn't show me any evidence. All you do is to tell me to confess. I must say, you're quite tough. But aren't you afraid of accidentally offending the wrong people here in Wolsing, especial
Yvonne frowned slightly when she realized what Garrick meant. "Director, my boss isn't a suspect. He's only here…""Whether he's a suspect or not isn't up to you or me. It's up to the law and the evidence," Garrick said, glaring at Yvonne. His gaze became somewhat sleazy, and he began to scheme how he could use this scenario to throw this beautiful woman into his bed.He continued to say righteously, "Ma'am, I'm warning you. You better not interrupt our investigation. Of course, if you have something to say, you can always lodge a complaint to the office."After that, he waved his hand, and the two officers behind him led Harvey into the interrogation room. Seeing what had happened, Yvonne hesitated a little before sending out a message quickly on her phone.This was something quite serious. If Harvey went in because of this, it would be quite troublesome for the Xavier family as well. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be convenient for the Xaviers to do anything…Meanwhile, Harvey w
