At this moment, Tim Zepeda and Yaron Quick exchanged glances and saw the shock in their eyes.Although they had always known that a first-class family like the Surrey family had tremendous power, they never expected that the Surrey family would invite so many big shots just for a trivial matter.This was really indescribable.Stevie Surrey and Yelena Surrey laughed when they saw the expressions on Tim and others’ faces.The headmaster and the school’s board of directors who had just resigned also laughed.Indeed!Tim and Yaron, whose imposing manner was astonishing just now, were now all gone while facing Reign Jackson and the others at this moment.It was as if a mouse is confronting a cat.This was because Reign was Tim and Yaron’s immediate superior.They were nothing in front of Reign, regardless of how awesome they were in front of other people!However, Harvey looked indifferent when he saw Reign and the others as if they were just some ordinary people from the streets.
At this moment, Reign Jackson stepped forward and said coldly, “Tim Zepeda, Yaron Quick, have you forgotten what I normally taught you?“How many times have I said that you shouldn’t act recklessly outside using your identity?!“Now, I’ll give you a chance. I won’t hold you accountable as long as you admit your mistake and leave here!“Otherwise, what are the consequences? You should know them better than me!”Reign’s voice was indifferent, but it was equivalent to thunder striking on the ground, shaking the entire auditorium.“Old Zepeda, we’re both colleagues. We’re just students in front of Sir Jackson.“You should have known what to choose at this time. I don’t have to teach you, right?”Marvin said with a smile.Apparently, in their opinion, they could surely make Tim and Yaron turn against each other with just one sentence.Everyone was a member of the government. They were certainly aware of everyone’s ability and prowess.In truth, Reign and Marvin felt that today’s m
“Sigh, wronging a person of his goodwill I see.”Tim Zepeda and Yaron Quick both sighed as if Reign Jackson had missed an opportunity.The sight had halted all laughter from Marvin Brown and the others. They were all perplexed.‘Are Tim Zepeda and Yaron Quick brain-dead? Or do they actually have some sort of trump card?’“Prince Jackson, Mr. York’s identity is one that you all have to bow to!” Tim Zepeda said earnestly.But waves of laughter continued soon after.Yelena Surrey immediately exclaimed, “Don’t be fooled, Grandfather Jackson. This man is just a live-in son-in-law!”Everyone was speechless after hearing Yelena Surrey’s claims.‘Since when did anyone have to bow to a live-in son-in-law?’On the other hand, the calm and collected Dawson Surrey was inspecting Harvey York closely.‘This man had been extremely nonchalant. He must’ve met some sort of nobility…‘But so what?‘A mere live-in son-in-law can only have a social circle with the status as high as him. What ki
Harvey York did not bat an eye toward Stevie Surrey. In his eyes, he would just be wasting his time if he spoke with a collateral relative of the Surreys.He then shifted his gaze toward Dawson Surrey and said calmly, “Sir Surrey, everyone keeps saying that you’re the best in the second generation of Surreys and that you might even have a chance to take the throne of Prince Surrey.“But have you even thought of what would happen to your throne if I were to end you right now?”Dawson’s facial expressions slightly changed after hearing his words.The Surreys’ inside information could not be known by any ordinary man.But the live-in son-in-law in front of him talked about it as if it were his family’s secrets.Something was wrong!Terribly wrong!And the man was clearly not foolish if he was speaking about this matter freely at this moment.If so, he should know that the Surreys could not be suppressed with only Tim Zepeda and Yaron Quick’s powers.If that were the case, why wa
Harvey York smiled.“So, do you mean that you have no intention of apologizing whatsoever?”“Of course not! Not in a lifetime! Don’t even think about it!”Harvey then stared calmly at Dawson Surrey and said, “It’s the fault of the father that the child was not taught properly. I guess I can accept the apology if you kneel and apologize.”The once calm and collected Dawson was then boiling with anger after listening to those words.He was titled Sir Surrey; his status in the family was extremely high, outsiders would need to be respectful toward him wherever he went.Even if the live-in son-in-law in front of him had a bit of status, why would he ever kneel in front of him?He then replied with a tone as cold as ice, “What right does a live-in son-in-law like you have to make me kneel?“And apologize to the little bastard over here?!”“Right right right! We’ll never apologize to her!”“The bastard is to blame for everything that happened to her!”“She thinks that she can just
Dawson Surrey was a bit excited after hearing Reign Jackson’s words.The patriarch of the Surreys, James Surrey, has connections far and wide. Maybe he had asked for a more prominent character for such a trivial thing this time?Stevie Surrey and Yelena Surrey were quite exhilarated as well.The bigger the character, the higher their pride.If the person could easily crush Harvey York and Xynthia Zimmer’s dignity, they would be even happier.Soon, a group of people walked inside.The people were all government officials; they were clad in white shirts.A middle-aged man with a square face was leading the group, but his aura did not seem normal. Ordinary people would not even have the courage to look at him.His spirit was through the roof!Buckwood’s first-in-command, Yoel Graham!Reign and the others’ expressions slightly changed soon after they recognized the man’s identity!Yoel Graham was walking with the utmost haste, and his usual calm temper was nowhere in sight.“Pr
Yoel Graham no longer paid attention to Marvin Brown. His gaze shifted toward Reign Jackson with an expression as cold as ice.In general, both of them usually do not see eye to eye because of different political views.And now that Reign had provoked Harvey York, Yoel was filled full with glee.Under the gaze of the shocked crowd, Yoel then walked up toward Reign and gave him a slap across his face as well.“How did the government of Buckwood breed filth like you?! Are you planning to drag the government down with you because of your stupidity?!”Pow pow pow!Yoel immediately started to punch and kick the man, without a hint of decorum left in him.Yoel only stopped pummeling the man after a long while. His expressions were horrifying.Reign’s face was terribly swollen, but he would not dare to say anything at that moment.He had immense experience as a government official, and he understood the situation the moment Yoel took action.This live-in son-in-law was not a man to
Even though Yoel Graham was the first-in-command of Buckwood, cold sweats were still dripping down his back.He swiftly bowed in front of Harvey York and said, “It’s my fault! It’s all my fault!“It’s due to my incompetence that my men are disobedient. I didn’t teach them properly!“It’s my biggest mistake to let these people provoke you, Mr. York!“I am truly sorry, Mr. York. I’ll take whatever punishment that you’re planning for me!”“What?!”The crowd gasped after seeing the sight.Everyone thought that Yoel was Harvey’s backbone.But they did not think that he would have to be respectful toward Harvey and bow while he apologized. He would not dare to refute Harvey’s decisions.Dawson Surrey was dumbfounded!Reign Jackson was shocked!Marvin Brown was awestruck!Yelena Surrey was astonished!Everyone was dumbstruck!Nobody had speculated this was happening and that Harvey’s status was actually higher than what they could ever imagine!Fear was reflected in Dawson’s ey
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
