“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
“About that…” Mandy Zimmer was not very confident about the request. She glanced at Harvey York unintendedly.“Just accept the request.” Senior Zimmer laughed as he thought that Mandy had connections with someone from York Enterprise’s top management. At the very least, that was what he thought after seeing Mandy managed to accomplish such a difficult task.“Okay grandpa, I promise…”“”No!” Harvey interrupted as Mandy was about to accept.“What the f*ck is wrong with you! Who are you to refuse?” Zack Zimmer yelled while holding his head as he was starting to be afraid of Harvey’s reckless actions.“Harvey, I ignored your rude actions earlier because I respect Mandy. Do you think that you’re qualified to speak in this house?” Senior Zimmer threatened while giving Harvey a cold stare as Harvey had really gone up his nerves after causing ruckus multiple times.“Previously you promised that Mandy would become the CEO if she got the deal, but now you’re just making new conditions and
“Zack Zimmer is truly the hope for our family!”“Looks like even without that ‘somebody’ who went this morning, the Yorks would contact us after all.”The crowd changed their standpoints again, this time turned against Mandy Zimmer.“You sure about that Zack?” Senior Zimmer asked with a frown on his face.“Of course!” Zack replied as he called Wendy Sorrell and put her on the speaker.“Hello, Mr. Zimmer.” Wendy’s soft voice came out from the speaker.“Hello Ms. Sorell, I’ve already notified Senior Zimmer about your visit tonight, may I know when will you arrive?” Zack replied with a smirk.“No need to cause a scene, I’m just here to hand some stuff over to you.” Wendy replied.“My pleasure. Do you need a ride?” Zack offered.“No need, I have my own transport, I’ll arrive around 7pm.” Wendy replied.“Alright, we’ll be waiting for your arrival!” Zack replied with a proud look before hanging up the call.‘Stuff? What stuff? Could it be the contract?’ The crowd was astonished.
Meanwhile, Sol moved a chair over for Harvey and made a cup of tea for him. Harvey drank the flower tea that had just been freshly brewed. After a drink, he said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Geoffrey.""You saved me, so it's nothing strange for me to show you some appreciation," replied Geoffrey with a smile as he waved his hand. Then, Sol and Lune closed and covered all the windows and doors leading to the studies. Later, he said, "Harvey, I've prepared everything I need to. It's all in your hands now."In the next few days, he had already written down his own comprehension of his martial arts and those that he believed needed to be recorded, then passed them to Sol and Lune for safekeeping. Geoffrey was prepared for the consequences of his treatment."Alright. Since you have made the decision, then I won't delay this any further. But I suggest that we should make a video recording. That way, you will not only know what changes occur to your body but also what I did." Harvey sugge
"You heard it too, didn't you? I gave Victoria a call," Harvey said openly. "Victoria is the eldest princess of the Empire. She owed me one, so I asked her a favor. To her, something like this is easily within her powers."Yvonne was shocked. "You're actually familiar with the Empire's eldest princess?"Harvey smiled. "It's all in the past. Not to mention that this time, it involves the lives of many of your relatives. It's more convenient if the Empire is the one that makes the move."Yvonne gave it a thought and mumbled, "Sir, you probably need to repay her for a favor this huge, right? If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll have the Xaviers prepare them.""Well… There's no need to," Harvey said as he glanced at his phone screen with a message written in the Empire's script. "I guess this is all over once I find some time to treat her to a meal."When she heard it, Yvonne's expression instantly turned strange. But she was a smart woman; she knew there were things she s
"That's because the Empire produces most of the firearms we Second Caste used. Once they stop their services, we will lose access to those firearms in the short term. The First Case will use this chance to retaliate. If we ever reach that stage, the Second Caste is doomed. That's why we have no choice but to execute the Empire's orders."That's not the worst part. Unless we can completely go without the weapons produced by the Empire from within our army, otherwise… Harvey basically owns the Second Caste from now on. Crossing him is suicidal. In our current condition, the Second Caste doesn't have the resources to change the firearms from within our army. That's why, whether we like it or not, he basically owns us," said Bart, heaving a sigh. His expression darkened."Darn it… I told them I would rather cross the people from Country A than the people from Country H. Why didn't they believe me? They only regretted it after they had been thoroughly humiliated."When Zoe heard it, she
"Let's go!" Bart's expression darkened when he saw things had reached this stage. With a wave of his hand, he was going to leave with his underlings. He was filled with dissatisfaction.Today was supposed to be his day of glory. He was supposed to crush the Xaviers right under his boots. He was even prepared to have some fun with the women from the Xaviers. But he never expected one call from Harvey to be enough to turn his dreams into nothing. He was extremely dissatisfied.Zoe shuddered and was also about to leave. She wished Harvey could forgive her existence at this moment."Did I tell you that you can leave?" Harvey glanced at the group as they reached the entrance. "Don't forget, all of you have to give me an explanation that I'm happy with."Then, Harvey glanced at Zoe and said, "And you, Maiden. Don't forget your words so soon?"Zoe's expression darkened as she shuddered.Meanwhile, Bart immediately bent the knee on the floor with a loud thud. Then, he said in a bitter vo
Bart was completely stunned. "Sir, that's not what you said earlier! You gave explicit orders that…""What orders?" The voice coming from the other side was grim. "Do you understand what I'm telling you? Do as I tell you right now. Other than letting them know, I don't care whether you must cry or beg; you must gain the Xaviers' forgiveness. "Remember. If you fail, I'll kill all your family! This is not just my personal order but the collective will of the entire Second Caste. You must gain their forgiveness even if you were to sacrifice your own life!"After Mr. Garcia roared back at Bart, he angrily hung up. Obviously, there was pent-up anger in him, making him very furious and agitated. Unfortunately, it seemed that he could not resist it. That was why, even if he did not want to, all he could do was follow Mr. Garcia's orders.What happened?Bart, Zoe, and the others could not react as their eyes were fixed on the phone on the table. Their expressions were completely frozen.
"Tsk. Didn't you say you just gave a call to the Empire? That's our suzerain! If there's really someone on top of the pyramid speaking on your behalf, we all had to obey!" Bart said, his words were spiteful once more."Maybe you should give her a call again? Tell her that the Second Caste is very scared, waiting for her to come and punish us. Or maybe, your phone is out of credit? Do you need more money to pay for your credits?" Bart then pulled out a 20-dollar bill and threw it at Harvey. What Bart just did made all the people from Country I laugh even more arrogantly.Zoe could not be bothered to waste her time anymore. Instead, she extended her foot before Harvey, signaling Harvey to kneel and lick the sole of her heel quickly. Otherwise, someone from the Xaviers would have to die again if time was up.Buzz…As the mockery climaxed, Bart's phone started to vibrate. Everyone instantly looked at him. Bart was also stunned and glanced at the screen of his phone. Then, he gave Harve
"What? Don't tell me the Victoria you called just now was actually Princess Victoria from the Empire? I suppose you must have gotten what you wanted if you could talk to her directly. I wonder what kind of orders she gave us? Did she tell us to be on our knees right now or tomorrow?" A smirk appeared on Zoe's face the moment Harvey hung up. She looked at Harvey as if she was looking at a clown running a circus."Oh, right, I need to remind you. In one hour, we will kill another member of the Xavier family. If she only contacts us after a long time, then the Xaviers will all die," said Zoe as she folded her arms in front of her chest and slowly approached Harvey. Then, she leaned closer to Harvey and said, "And here I'm looking forward to falling on my knees and calling you Daddy. So please, you better give me this chance."At this time, Zoe acted so seductively. If it were not because everyone here knew that Zoe and Harvey were enemies, some might even think that Harvey and Zoe might
"Seems like you didn't change at all, Maiden. You still wouldn't give up until your final moments," Harvey stepped forward and glanced at Zoe. She might look stern on the outside, but she was already shaken inside."You know full well that if I could give you the money all this time, it would mean that I have the evidence. Maybe the Second Caste didn't care about the betrayal and continued to use you because you have some value. But the moment I show all this evidence on the internet, a sinner like you will make everyone remember everything."Perhaps the First Caste, who is at a disadvantage right now, could use this as an initiative and retaliate. That's why if I were you, I would immediately turn tail and leave, then think of a way to convince the Second Caste to stop instead of wasting your breath here."Zoe smiled coldly. "You can stop threatening me now, Harvey. I confessed everything to my higher-ups a long time ago. So what if you can reveal all the evidence you have? It mean
Bart coughed out a mouthful of blood after being slapped. Even a few teeth were in the blood as he looked completely out of his element. He wanted to stand up and fight against Harvey until the end, but he finally discovered that his arrogance and power meant nothing before Harvey."Harvey! You've crossed a line!" Zoe finally could not sit still and threw the cup she held onto the floor. Then, she pointed his finger at Harvey and yelled, "Do you even know what you're doing? Don't you know we have hundreds of hostages? Do you think we're still fighting in an arena in Flutwell?"So what if you can fight? So what if you're the representative? The Second Caste succeeded in a military coup! We have millions of soldiers and countless weapons! No matter how powerful you are, do you think they're more powerful than modern firearms? Regardless of your influence, do you think it's enough to suppress a country? No matter how rich you are, can you buy the entire Country I?"I'm warning you now,
