On the other hand, the gold diggers in the crowd were admiring Zayn Lewis as if he were their prince charming of some sort. As for Harvey York, the gold diggers despised him because he looked poor. They thought Harvey was only trying to act bold in front of the crowd and they were quite sure that Harvey would regret his decisions later on.Zayn tidied himself up while enjoying the admiration from the crowd since nearly everything in Niumhi would just go accordingly to his way because of his status.He held his stomach as he walked toward Harvey, alongside his guards.“You little b*stard! Who the f*ck do you think you are for hitting me like that huh?!” Zayn yelled while pointing at Harvey.“I’ve been in Niumhi for a long f*cking time, nobody should disrespect me like that!”“But you, you broke my rules, I’m gonna let you know how doomed you’re going to be.”“Last chance, kneel the f*ck down and lick my boots! Then send your woman straight to my place or else nobody’s gonna say
After hearing what Zayn Lewis said, Wyatt Johnson got quite relieved since he knew that his family was not that big of a deal to Zayn.“You and the girl beside you can leave, I won’t do anything to your shop either. However, I want a piece of this kid. As for the other girl, I want her with me tonight.” Zayn said slyly.“Mr. Lewis…”“You should totally keep the guy, but these two ladies were my classmates. Please let them go.”Wyatt begged while trying to shift the blame back to Harvey York.“What do you want, Johnson? Didn’t I show you mercy already? Don’t you understand what I just said?”Zayn asked angrily while choking Wyatt.“Understood! I understood!” Wyatt nodded apologetically.“Then f*ck off or I’ll beat you up too.” Zayn threatened.“Let’s just leave, Wyatt.” Cecilia Zachary said as she was about to cry.“Honey, it’ll be fine, leave it to me.” Harvey told Mandy Zimmer with a smile as if he didn’t see those buffed guards around him.Harvey turned over to face Zayn a
“How about you let my wife and her friends go while I be your playmate for a while, you got the balls for that?” Harvey York offered.“Sure.” Zayn Lewis replied with a serious face as he didn’t want too many people to see what he’s planning to do to Harvey.“You brought this upon yourself Harvey, it’s no longer our business anymore!” Cecilia Zachary yelled while dragging Mandy Zimmer out of the room.Wyatt Johnson had also followed the girls and instantly shut the door as he was afraid that Zayn might change his mind.As Mandy recovered from the shock, she found herself outside of the restaurant with Cecilia and Wyatt.“No! I'm going back to Harvey!” Mandy said with a panicked voice.Mandy had never thought that her so-called useless husband would stand up for her in that situation.“Are you out of your mind Mandy? You won’t be coming out again if you go back in!” Cecilia interrupted immediately.“But…”“Wyatt, you know a lot of people right? Please help me out.” Mandy asked a
Everyone in the room was stunned by what they saw, including those buffed security guards as Zayn Lewis kneeled down to Harvey York.“I’m sorry, I didn’t know who you were. Please show mercy.” “Please…”“It’s all my fault. I’m really sorry…”Zayn apologised while continuously slapping his face until it was swollen like a pufferfish.“Please, give me another chance!” Zayn begged as he had confirmed that Harvey was the new CEO of York Enterprise. Zayn knew that he would have lost everything in an instant if he couldn’t persuade Harvey, just like how easy it would be if he got promoted by the Yorks.“What are you doing Mr. Lewis? Why are you kneeling to this worthless sack of trash?” asked the subordinate while trying to pull Zayn back on his feet.“Kneel down you mother f*cker!” Zayn yelled as he slapped his subordinate and kicked him to the ground.“Say another d*mn word and I’ll kill you!” Zayn threatened.At that moment, Zayn’s tears were about to drop as he begged Harvey fo
“I thought you wanted a piece of me?” Harvey York asked.“I was wrong!” Zayn Lewis replied as he reached for a steak knife and stabbed himself in his left palm.Zayn screamed in pain while still maintaining his posture on the ground, hoping that Harvey could forgive him.After seeing this, Harvey stood up slowly and patted Zayn’s head before leaving the room.After Harvey left, Zayn stood up with a terrified look on his face while looking at Harvey’s back as Harvey would be his new nightmare from now on.Harvey walked out of the restaurant and saw two policemen on the spot.“Hubby!” Mandy Zimmer yelled while sprinting toward him.“I’m so glad that you’re okay!” Mandy was relieved.“Of course I’d be okay!” Harvey replied with a smile.“Hmph, you should thank your wife for calling the cops or else you wouldn’t be able to come out from there without a scratch, you worthless sack of trash!” Cecilia Zachary taunted.On the other hand, Wyatt Johnson was disappointed to see that Har
“I’m afraid you won’t understand this, although I made a deal with the Yorks…” Mandy Zimmer sighed and shook her head as she knew that the Zimmers won’t be too happy if they heard that the funds were decreased from fifty million dollars to thirty million dollars.Both of them left after saying their goodbyes to Cecilia Zachary.At York Enterprise, Yvonne Xavier was about to leave the office as she had just handled the incident at Northland Restaurant.As she walked past Wendy Sorrell’s office, she saw Wendy frowning over a big bag of luxurious items.Being a woman herself, Yvonne was quite interested in the stuff.“It looks like some rich guy is trying to court you, Miss Sorrell.” Yvonne said with a smile.“What rich guy? It’s just Zack Zimmer. He’s trying to make me approve the investment on the Zimmers. Who am I to decide, after all the CEO already had plans with the Zimmers.” Wendy said while still frowning.“Oh, Miss Yvonne, can you accompany me to the Zimmer Villa and retur
Senior Zimmer was feeling anxious, as it was clearly shown on his face, since the Zimmer family won’t be getting much profit out of the deal.“Mandy, how did the terms change so drastically? Surely, you weren’t planning to frame our family alongside outsiders, are you?” Sean Zimmer asked Mandy Zimmer.After hearing what Sean asked, everyone around started to believe Sean’s accusation as all of them had done something similar before. It didn’t take too long for them to be suspicious about Mandy.Mandy was mad as all of her effort had not been recognized, furthermore got accused of framing the family.Smack!Before Mandy said anything, a piece of watermelon skin flew through the air and landed on Sean’s face.“Ugh! Ptooey!” Sean spat in disgust as he was quite germaphobic.“What the f*ck are you doing? You worthless piece of trash!” Zack Zimmer yelled at Harvey York as he saw his father getting hit by a piece of watermelon skin.“I was just throwing garbage,” Harvey replied with
However, deep inside Mandy Zimmer’s heart, she agreed that Sean Zimmer and Zack Zimmer deserved the humiliation.Harvey York had no intentions of giving excuses as he then casually grabbed another piece of watermelon.“Nothing much, I was just throwing garbage, it’s not my fault that somebody’s words are as stinky as a trashcan.” Harvey replied calmly.“You little…” Sean grunted as he glared at Harvey while wiping his face. Sean was so offended that his body was trembling.“What about me? It’s your son who had caused the trouble, which my wife settled. Despite ignoring her effort and giving her the gratitude she deserves, you guys even had the gall to accuse her for framing the family. How ironic is that? Fine, let your son handle it then!” Harvey defiantly replied to Sean.“Harvey York, you’re just a live-in son-in-law, who do you think you are to speak at our family meeting?”“Besides, as a Zimmer herself, Mandy should work for our family…” Sean yelled at Harvey.“And let your
In truth, Jesse did understand Harvey somewhat. He knew from the very beginning that with Harvey's character, he would not have killed Wilhelm.The reason he threw Harvey into prison was to protect him, other than it being the Xavier family's order as well. But he did not expect something like this to happen outside.Not only Donald had died, but all the young men and women he brought back also mostly died. All of them died the same way. They could not even resist, all of them slain in one slash. It was as if the person who killed them possessed incredible power and was very familiar with them.Other than Liza, who left the residence at the time, all the people from the other three Martial Arts Alliance who came back from overseas had been killed.The information was from Wolsing's precinct. It was absolutely unbelievable to them that something like this would happen at the country's seat of power. That was why the precinct contacted Wolsing's Dragon Cell, hoping they could work to
"Or maybe you forgot who you are, Jesse. How dare you conspire with the Islanders!" When Jesse heard Harvey's words, he narrowed his eyes. Harvey's questioning was sharp and dug into his heart. However, from Harvey's angle, he was not exactly wrong.Jesse took a deep breath and said, "I'm not going to lie to you. The Xavier family as a whole has its own considerations, as well as my own personal thoughts."But you are gravely mistaken. The Xaviers aren't conspiring with the Islanders. However, we simply don't want you to go to our family and mess things up before Yvonne is married. So… Harvey, stay here."On the one hand, this is for Yvonne's own good if you really care about her. On the other hand, isn't this my way of protecting you too? You can't imagine just how many people outside want you dead…"Firstly, I can understand why because I exposed just how shameless families like you are, despite my own contempt for it." Harvey shrugged. "But I don't understand your second point.
"We meet again, Harvey. What? Do you think Dragon Cell's fried chicken is to your taste, so you came in for a stroll?"At the same time when Donald was being killed, Jesse walked into the Dragon Palace's interrogation room and watched Harvey enjoying his fried chicken meal with a hint of helplessness on his face."I didn't want to, but they got me with some concrete evidence, so I have no choice," Harvey said as he put down his fork before turning over to Jesse. "I've got a few things I want to ask you, but you're quite hard to get a hold of. But I think it should be quite easy to see you here, so I came in.""Questions for me?" Jesse asked, confused. "That's why you're here?""What else?" Harvey said with a shrug. "Oh, right. I also want to see whether Wolsing's Dragon Cell has already completely fallen and if they can still uphold their justice and prove the ingenuousness of the innocents."If you can't prove my innocence in the shortest possible time, then I believe that Dragon
Liza chuckled when he saw Donald, who was so confident in his abilities. "If you put some more effort into it, with your abilities, there's no doubt that Harvey will die a terrible death, am I right?"Donald rubbed his swollen face. "That little bastard hit my face until it's all swollen. Of course, I must get back at him a hundred, no, a thousand times! Otherwise, all this pain and humiliation will be for nothing."Liza bowed. "He deserves it all." "Alright, I'll get some rest. After everything, I can feel my bones aching," said Donald as he set down his glass and walked to his bedroom.But the instant he went inside, he turned around to look at Liza. "Contact Mitsuki and ask if the Island Nation still has any other evidence. If there's none, ask them if she can fabricate something concrete soon. If we want to make this case as solid as possible, we also need other evidence! And I believe they have already prepared it.""Understood!" Liza nodded and immediately left to arrange i
Just as Harvey was imprisoned because of Rita's testimony, Donald returned to his mansion with a pleasing smile.While he had lived overseas, he had plenty of assets in Wolsing.On the one hand, it was to make some money. On the other hand, it was to have a place to stay. And his favorite place was Arcadia Garden located in the third rim of Wolsing. It was not spacious and had three courtyards, and the architecture was quite old, as if it had not been renovated for decades.That being said, Arcadia Garden's design was quite old, but all the antique, the pottery, the statues… All of them were pretty valuable. If one were to live in a place like this, they would no doubt lose themselves in a life of decadence, becoming full of themselves.At this time, someone pushed open the door into Arcadia Garden with a creak.Then, Donald walked into the estate with a gratified expression, sitting on the sofa in the living room."Hahahaha! What a show! Isn't that Harvey quite bombastic? Isn't
"Now that we have all the evidence, why don't you just surrender?" Mitsuki looked at Harvey with a smirk.Harvey calmly replied, "Firstly, I have no interest in framing you Islanders. Because logically speaking, the weak will frame the strong. In my eyes, all of you Islanders are nothing. You're not even on my radar."Secondly, if I really want to kill Wilhelm, will I be so stupid to kill him just after he and I were in a scuffle earlier? Can't I wait for a few more days?"Thirdly, you showed a fingerprint and said all the evidence is clear. But you can lift my fingerprints from my residence and my office."Fourthly, you Islanders have just used Donald and Wilhelm to threaten me, so they'll make me give up on the duel. But when that fails, I'm suddenly accused of being a murderer, as if I'll go to prison at any time."There are too many coincidences. I believe the one who killed Wilhelm is someone from Island Nation, so that you can frame me.""Us? Framing you?" Mitsuki said as i
Harvey did not expect Charlotte to be willing to fight the Shinto Way for him until the very end. However, he did not want Charlotte to fight for him now.Looking at the crowd gathering around them, itching to get a fight and the people from Dragon Palace… Then he noticed Mitsuki's deep smile…Harvey sighed.He did not mind fighting the Islanders here.But if he fought with the people from Dragon Palace because of him, no matter who won, it would be a disgrace if news of this spread. Harvey raised his right hand and said, "Charlotte, no need to fight here. Didn't Mitsuki say she has enough evidence to the point that the officers from Dragon Cell are with her? If that's the case, then let's investigate. I believe I can prove my own innocence.Harvey ignored them and left the ICU.When Mitsuki and Donald saw what had happened, they looked and smiled deeply at each other and quickly followed him.-Half an hour later. In the interrogation room, Dragon Cell Wolsing branch.As th
When Harvey looked at how righteous Mitsuki was trying to portray herself, he was unsure how to react.Meanwhile, Donald immediately gave Mitsuki a thumbs up and said, "Just as expected from one of the three primary disciples of the Shinto Way, Mitsuki! Not only can you fight, but you're also guided by righteousness! With Mitsuki willing to preside over what's right, this means that there's still justice in this world. It also means that in Country H, those with power will still be punished!"Then, Donald gave Harvey a complacent smile, feeling that Harvey would have to submit even if he refused.Charlotte frowned when she saw what had happened.The Islanders were known for their particularity. They would never act rashly before they had all the evidence.However, from Mitsuki's reaction… Could it be that Harvey really did kill Wilhelm? But Charlotte instantly felt that it was impossible. For someone like Harvey, if he really had something against Wilhelm, he would handle it on th
"You…" Donald was so furious that he could not stop shaking. "You're making things up, Harvey! Even if I wanted to do something like that, I wouldn't have killed Wilhelm! He's a dear friend!"Then, Harvey said, "Does that matter to a person like you? You can even kill your own father as long as the price is right, much less someone unrelated to you."Donald could not stop shuddering when he heard that. However, he knew that Harvey was not completely wrong."Mr. Harvey, are all people from your country just like you? Refusing to admit to the crimes you commit? But I have proof that you're the one who killed the deacon!" A cold voice came from the other side of the corridor at this time."We went to the crime scene where William was murdered just now. We found a longsword with your fingerprint on it. This is the smoking gun. What else do you have to say?"Harvey turned and looked at the owner of the voice. He was one of the three primary disciples of Shinto Way, Mitsuki. She walked
