Ray Hart was so respectful in the beginning before as if he saw his master.But his words came out so brutally honest.Naturally, the Zimmers would never know that Ray was respectful because Harvey York was there.If it weren’t for him, how would he ever be this civilized and well-mannered?Senior Zimmer forced a smile and said, “Sir Ray, please. You must be joking! In what world do gifts get taken back anyway?“Is it because Mandy rejected Prince York the day before that he wanted the gifts back?“If that’s the case, give us three days, no no no. One day! In one day, we’ll make her accept the proposal!”“No need!” Ray replied coldly.“The Prince said that his woman and his marriage are personal problems. Nobody is allowed to interfere!“Because the Zimmers have already broken all ties with his woman, the gifts do not have anything to do with you anymore.“And I came here to retrieve the gifts because Prince York willed me to.”Senior Zimmer’s body wobbled. He was almost on
What kind of person was Ray Hart?Ray Hart was Harvey York’s personal bodyguard back then. He marched in front of millions of soldiers and horses of the five strongest countries.Even when the opposition was wielding powerful firearms, he would not even blink.How could a man like him even be scared by the Zimmers’ way of intimidating people just by using powerful connections?As Ray Hart straightened his body, a terrifying aura was seething out of his body.He had restrained himself when he was in front of Harvey York.But he could not control his temper at that moment. Even patriarchs of first-rated families could not compare themselves to a powerful aura such as this.Harvey York nodded from the side.Ray Hart was exceptional. He still had the mannerisms from long before when he was in the Sword Camp.Ordinary people would indeed be overwhelmed seeing Ray Hart’s mannerisms, but Harvey remained indifferent.Any of Sword Camp’s ordinary soldiers would be similar to him after
Quinn Zimmer started panicking at that moment.“Grandfather, I spent all of the money. I sold off most of the things as well.”Zack Zimmer was also gritting his teeth.“Grandfather, you know we spend quite an amount daily. That money has already been long gone.“There’s no way to get those things back beside the villa itself.”The other people in the Zimmers had no other choice. They had to tell the truth.Of course, they wouldn’t say where they spent the money.What if they were forced to sell off the houses and cars that they bought?The Zimmers could fall, but they could not be bankrupt!“You Zimmers had the nerve to do that after all!” Ray Hart exclaimed calmly.“But, some things can be spit back out.”“I don’t care if you sell off your other assets or your company’s stocks to repay the debt, but I can guarantee that you’ll live the rest of your lives behind bars if you miss even a single dollar.”The Zimmers’ hearts sank to the bottom.There was no doubt about Ray Har
Ray Hart’s facial expression instantly turned as cold as ice.‘The Prince is right there. How dare this shameless woman call Mandy a loose woman?’Ray Hart immediately walked up to Quinn Zimmer, grabbed her throat with his left hand, and then slapped her across her face with the other.Ray Hart’s slap was more severe compared to Senior Zimmer’s the previous day.The slap was enough to make a few teeth fly out of her mouth.After throwing Quinn Zimmer to the ground, Ray Hart then said with disdain, “I feel like my hands are getting dirty just by touching you. How dare you still spout nonsense about Prince York?“What are you even worth?“You’re nothing!”Quinn was left in a daze.She usually had a sharp tongue and was extremely arrogant, but she could not even utter a single word at this moment.“If I don’t see the gifts sent to The Gardens Residence at the same time tomorrow, what you see before you right now will all show up in Buckwood Police Station.“I guarantee you that
Senior Zimmer finally said hesitantly, “Mandy, we said that you have no more ties with the family anymore; but even if we’re incredibly cold-hearted, I genuinely hope that you can help us this one last time!“After this, the family will have no more quarrels with you whatsoever!”Naturally, Senior Zimmer was trying to bait her gratitude.Mandy Zimmer did not even want to bat them an eye, but she had gotten softer after seeing Senior Zimmer’s old and pitiful look.“I can help you come up with an idea, but it’ll be up to you whether you want to execute it or not.”“Good, pray tell!”Senior Zimmer’s eyes lit up.She then took a deep breath and replied coldly, “Didn’t you all sell off the gifts and split the money, then used it to buy cars and houses?“Sell off everything that you bought and see how much you can all gather. We’ll talk about the rest later!”Quinn Zimmer was the first one to boil with anger as soon as she heard that suggestion.“Mandy, what do you mean? Do you wan
Mandy Zimmer thought about it for a while and shook her head.She didn’t know, and to be honest, she did not want to know.Harvey York continued speaking.“At this rate, they won’t be able to gather the gifts. The Zimmers had been lavished with glory and wealth, living luxurious lives. Even if they managed to sell off all the properties, they won’t be able to recoup the amount they spent.“But there is still a way for them to settle their debt.“For example, you can still give them a little bit of money to survive, but all forty-nine percent of the Zimmer Enterprise’s stocks have to be transferred to you.”“This…”She hesitated on that idea. This was the only stock left for the Zimmers after all those years. If she were to take that away, the Zimmers would perish entirely.After seeing her being hesitant, Harvey then said, “I know that you’re unwilling, but you’re also giving them a path of survival.“If not, how would the last of the stocks be of use after they sell off every
Harvey York smiled faintly. He was indifferent about Quinn Zimmer’s hatred toward him.Quinn Zimmer’s confidence came from her mediocre looks.A shame that she was only a little good-looking. Her beauty could not be compared to Mandy’s, which would topple buildings.For wealthy people, a woman like Quinn Zimmer would at most be a toy for them.She could only dream of marrying into a wealthy family at most.***In Hong Kong, the sea breeze from Victoria Harbor blew toward Taiping Mountaintop.The mountain that only wealthy people could stay in did not have any winds blowing over for many years.The top villa in the Taiping Mountaintop was considered the peak of the mountain itself.The villa was able to overlook Hong Kong’s entirety as if it had control over the families that reside within.In reality, the Leo family did have the right to do so.As one of the top four families in Hong Kong, the Leo family’s power would be far beyond an ordinary man’s imagination!The people
“All hail the matriarch!”Along with the sounds of cheering, the Leo family’s transfer of power was successful!Melissa Leo had planned this for ten whole. She had the force akin to a rolling thunder when she returned to reclaim the Leo family’s authority.***At the top villa of Taiping Mountaintop.Quinton York looked at his left palm, the freckles on his palm seemed like they changed.He instinctively put down his palm when Melissa Leo walked up behind him.“Having ambition is not a bad thing, but with only ambition and no planning—no method of achieving a decisive victory—that ambition will only burn you in the long run,” Melissa Leo looked at Victoria Harbor from afar as she spoke eloquently.Quinton York was showing a hint of perplexity, then bowed soon after.“Everything that I have right now was given to me by you. I would never dare to mention ambition in front of you.”Melissa Leo smiled and calmly replied, “In your eyes, do you think that today’s efforts were succe
"That's for me to know and for you to find out. If you're not going to make a choice soon, I'm going to do that for you." Harvey extended his hand and patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree.Silvan's eyes narrowed. Only at this time did he realize why Dan had forced him to make his move even if he had to spend that precious one chance. The way Harvey did things was simply too overbearing and couldn't be prepared for."Put down the Absolute Decree!""What you're doing is forbidden in Grand City!""This is outrageous!"All the Earth Hall elites yelled, furious.Alexei used this chance to get closer to Harvey and whispered, "Big bro, you should pay more respect to the Absolute Decree. If you keep this up, you might anger all Seven Predecessors if you're not careful."Silvan smiled coldly. "You hear that, Harvey? You humiliated Grand City by stealing the Absolute Decree. You're in big trouble now."Harvey smiled. "You don't have to worry whether I'm in trouble or not. You
"No one can say that I won't be the future mayor of Grand City. As long as I have the possibility of becoming the mayor, what you do know is insubordination!" Harvey sneered. "Are you brave enough to touch me?""Really now?" Silvan snapped, his face frosty. "Do you think I haven't prepared anything before coming here?"Silvan took out a badge made of a special material, flashing it in front of Harvey. "The Absolute Decree! While it can only be used once, it will allow anyone to enter any place within Grand City! I think this is the perfect place to use this. Forget about the fact that you're not even the scion of Grand City just yet. Even if you are, you need to obey the Absolute Decree!"He waved his hand and commanded, "Alright! Go and get our target!"Whoosh!Before anyone from Earth Hall could move, Harvey took a step and immediately appeared right in front of Silvan. Before Silvan could react, Harvey slapped his face. Slap!The slap was loud, and it was powerful enough t
A simple sentence seemed to contain an endless amount of murderous intention, putting all the elites from the Earth Hall on their guard. Silvan's face became terrifyingly dark."I know you're powerful, Harvey. You crushed the Origin Fist's Mark and even defeated all the Island Nation's six schools in the past. There's no mistake that you're a true warrior. But think through this clearly. There are so many of us here, can you defeat us? Even if you can, what if the three halls combined forces? What if all 100,000 of Grand City's elites attacked?"I'm advising you here right now because I have some respect for your role as the Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance. But if you still refuse to listen and want to force your way, we don't mind doing it until the end. You can try and attack any of us here. Let's see if the thousands of elites from the three halls will attack, and how many of us can you actually kill!" Silvan's handsome face turned brutal.If it was someone
However, Silvan couldn't simply leave like this or surrender. He gritted his teeth and instantly pulled out a gun from his waist. After disengaging the safety, he pointed at Harvey and said coldly, "I'm not here to waste my breath with you, Harvey. Take Tina here. I'll give you one minute. Otherwise, don't blame me for being callous! While you are indeed quite powerful, I trust that you know the people around you aren't that powerful!"36 men in black robes took a step forward. The weapons in their hands were not only aimed at Harvey, but also on Alexei and the rest.Harvey narrowed his eyes and smiled. "I do have the Tina that you're looking for, but I saved her out of the generosity of my heart as she was being pursued. However, something interesting about me is that when I save someone, I'll make sure to go all the way. Since she's now with me, I naturally need to ensure her safety."You can take her away. You can even put her in your prison. However, I need you to provide me w
Harvey played with the umbrella in his hand and said curiously, "You're with Dan?"When Silvan heard that, he said coldly, "Mr. Representative, do I need to repeat myself? I am Silvan of the Earth Hall. Now that I'm here, I am the warrant from Earth Hall as well as Grand City's law. And when I act, all will obey my orders. Even the Seven Families will cooperate with me without delay. Understand?"Harvey smiled. "And if I can't understand?"Silvan simply raised his hands.Clack! Clack!All 36 men in the black robes took out unique firearms and disengaged the safety, aiming in Harvey's direction."These weapons are specialized firearms Country A created against martial arts elites. Their bullets are created from toxins that could deal with True Warriors that Grand City has perfected. The ones with weapons are trained elites who with god-like accuracy and an iron will. If all 36 of them pull the trigger at the same time, even a living legend who has reached the level of uniting Man
Grand City looked quite mysterious under the cover of the night. The skies above were covered in dark clouds, with flashes of lightning visible occasionally—it was dazzling.Just when the butler of the Foster Residence was about to tell the staff to secure the gates for the night, sounds of car engines could be heard approaching from afar. Bright headlights swept over, and the staff instinctively narrowed their eyes. Eighteen Land Rover Defenders headed straight to the residence, surrounded by an unspeakable force. Thanks to the rain, one couldn't clearly see the figures within.However, each of the cars had red car plates, which was quite shocking to those in the know.It was Grand City's Purgatory Hall!The three halls of Grand City were the three institutions created for the city. The Heaven Hall was responsible for defense, the Earth Hall covered law enforcement, while the Purgatory Hall had dominion over execution.It could be said that among the Three Halls, while the Eart
Coco looked at her phone and saw her Facebook alternate account had just added Tina. She frowned slightly. The only reason she approved the request was so Willy and the others could use that to pinpoint Tina's current location. She didn't expect Tina would dare send her voice messages…and so many of them in one go, at that.Originally, Coco wanted to delete all those voice messages. However, the last message read, "This is for your own good, so you better give it a read." There was even a smiley face at the end.Coco was slightly stunned when she saw it. She exchanged a look with Dan, and the two told everyone to leave before playing the voice messages.Coco wasn't interested in everything in the beginning, since it was Tina begging for her life. She didn't take it to heart. But when she reached the end, Coco's expression suddenly darkened. "How you and your brother poisoned Alexei, how you ordered Sky Plane to ambush the mayor for your brother's sake, and the truth behind Duran
"Coco, it's fine. This is not Willy's fault," Dan said calmly as if he had everything planned and saw through everything.He pulled out a vintage wine that he had been saving, uncorked it, and poured Coco a glassful, hoping his sister could calm down at this key moment."Who could have expected at this day and age, a mere servant could fight back when forced into a corner? Tina was indeed just an ordinary woman, but when facing a life-and-death situation, it was quite normal for her to have a burst of energy. She ran straight for the Fosters' territory, which was obviously meant to make things difficult for us."Willy not performing as well as we expected is only because we can't make an enemy out of the Fosters just yet. This is for my good, so stop blaming them anymore."At the very least, he has already arranged a few snipers nearby. The moment Tina shows her face, they'll kill her immediately. Things aren't so bad that they can't be solved," Dan said, sighing.Then, he continu
"What do you mean?" Tina was slightly stunned, unable to react to Harvey's words.Harvey waved a familiar-looking phone. In front of her, he tapped on the red exclamation marks. When the resend button appeared, he tapped it. Ding! Ding! Ding!All the voice messages that failed to be sent out earlier had all been sent out. Meanwhile, Tina finally managed to react. Tina screamed."Ahhh! Harvey, you fool! You're going to get me killed!" Tina screamed.She momentarily forgot the wounds on her as she almost jumped from the bed, as if wanting to choke Harvey to death. She knew very well what the sent messages meant for Coco.Most importantly, she even told Coco she had a recorder with her…This…This gave Coco the perfect reason to get her killed. Her fate had been decided the moment Harvey pressed the send button!That bastard!He really was a bastard!How could there be such a shameless man in this world? If eyes could kill, Tina believed she would have already killed Harve
