As she spoke, Sheri Wilson laughed scornfully in her mind. Yvonne Xavier’s looks, body and elegance weren’t just a class above hers. Sheri was envious, but she refused to admit it.‘This thief is something else. He went around lying to people that he’s a CEO, how shameless can this man be?’Yvonne Xavier fixed her gaze on Sheri Wilson and said in a serious tone, “Please be mindful of your language. This is our company’s CEO. If you keep up with this disrespectful act, we don’t mind opening an account at another bank. Your bank may be reputable, but there are other banks in this city as well.”‘Our very own CEO who invested millions of dollars without even blinking an eye, and you called him a thief? This has to be the worst joke ever.’Sheri Wilson sized Yvonne Xavier up and down and replied contemptuously, “Should I believe you just because you’re saying he’s not a thief? Do you even know what’s an Amex Black Card? Only people who own billions of dollars in our bank would have the
“I’m okay, sir, but you…” Yvonne Xavier was worried. How could a CEO with a high status be wronged in this way, at a degrading place such as this to boot?Harvey York said faintly, “I’m fine. Let their president come and see us. We’ll stop using this bank for my accounts, the company’s accounts, and the company’s investment funds.” “Yes, sir!” Yvonne agreed immediately. When she looked into Harvey’s eyes, she became filled with determination. There was no doubt that the CEO was indeed the CEO. One simple command from him alone would determine the life and death of this bank. She thought that this decision was irreversible, even if the president did come.“Are you still pretending? You still have the guts to play pretend? It really is a pity that you didn’t go on to become actors!” Sheri Wilson chided. “You! Take the card!”At her behest, one of the security guards quickly grabbed the Amex Black Card from Harvey. Harvey chuckled coldly. He offered no resistance and simply allowe
Harvey York had restrained himself from going all out. Aside from the security guard who tried to tackle Yvonne Xavier, he was quite merciful toward the others. This security guard’s body had become quite distorted, and his face kept flinching in pain. This thief’s movements were unexpectedly swift and skilled.Although the security guards lived pampered lives, they were quite capable and did not lack in skills. Yet, they did not expect that they would lose a fight this badly.Sheri watched the scene unfold with her eyes widened and her mouth hung open. At that very moment, there was no other reaction that she could give. If there was such a thing as a medicine to turn back time, she wouldn’t have snatched Harvey’s phone away for sure.Harvey had no intention to stop. He trampled on the security guard’s thigh, sending the man kneeling at that instant. He said quietly, “As a man, you should never hit a woman under any circumstances. This is a basic principle. You better apologize.
Boom!At that instant, a group of people appeared at the door. Tens of security guards surrounded the chief manager as he strode in with his beer belly. His eyes twitched when he saw the chaotic scene before him. He did not expect so much to have happened in the time he made that call. However, the president was soon to arrive. He had a stable pillar to lean on, and thus he was exceptionally calm. “Hey little br*t, at first we only needed to send you to the police station for stealing that bank card. At most, you’d only have to endure a few days in jail.” The chief manager said, all the while smiling in delight. “Now that this has happened, I’m afraid that matters won’t be so simple for you anymore.” Harvey York lifted his head and looked up with a smile. “Have you come, Mr. Chief Manager? I have a question for you. Aren’t you afraid that you wouldn’t achieve whatever you have in mind? With this much arrogance, I’m afraid that you might not be able to save yourself no matter how
This would imply that the owner of this phone was one of the most distinguished VIPs of the bank. The Amex Black Card and the number on the phone’s screen. Although the man before him looked like a very poor man, the chief manager grew frightened nonetheless.There were indeed coincidences in the world. An Amex Black Card could appear in a poor man’s hands. The private customer service could have called the wrong number. However, when two unlikely coincidences appear together, some truths become evident. He started to burst into cold sweat. The chief manager, who was initially arrogant beyond words, was now drenched in sweat. His white shirt was sticking to his body.He lifted his head with much difficulty to look at Harvey York. Harvey had casually flung the team leader of the security guards to one side. His face was completely unperturbed as he sat on a chair. Thud! The chief manager knelt immediately. “S-Sir, no, no, no. Mr. CEO, I was completely blind and looked down on
The chief manager quickly replied, “President, I didn’t do that on purpose. I was just trying to protect the assets of our clients. How would I know that a distinguished VIP would personally come to the front desk to handle matters on his own? I thought that someone had stolen his card!”Dawson Robbin held a darkened countenance. He walked over and kicked the chief manager on the chest, and then turned back to Harvey with a smile. “Mr. York, see? These subordinates of mine simply made a mess out of good intentions. Could you be magnanimous and not take this matter to heart?”“No big deal.” Harvey York shrugged. “There have always been proud bullies like these. However, I still would like to seek justice over what had happened. President, could you do me a favor?”“Just say the word and I will attend to it wholeheartedly, so long as it is within my power to do so.” Dawson’s face was earnest. It was good news that such a major client was willing to make a request. This meant that he h
After everyone had left, Dawson Robbins smiled apologetically and said, “CEO York, if necessary, I can fire all of them by noon.”Harvey York replied faintly, “This concerns the internal affairs of your company. What does it have to do with me?”“Yes, yes, yes…” Dawson changed the topic. “As for the matter at hand, I still hope you would be magnanimous enough to forget about moving your assets elsewhere.”Dawson’s face was dripping with cold sweat. York Enterprise did not have much money in its accounts, with only about hundreds of millions. However, Harvey was different. The amount he possessed in his account was astonishing. If he moved his private account away, Dawson would be in dire conditions.“President, it’s not that I don’t want to give you a chance. I just don’t like how these things keep happening to me.”“No, it will never happen again.” At that instant, Dawson rose. “Our bank will tailor-make a professional team to handle any business matters you wish. They will come
“Miss Zachary told me about your predicament. It’s no big deal, really. I just need to make a call, and all will be good.”It was hard to read Jake Surrey’s thoughts. He surveyed Mandy Zimmer from top to bottom and exclaimed, “Miss Zimmer, you really are the goddess of Niumhi. There’s only one as beautiful as you. I have never believed the rumors, but I stand corrected after seeing you. It’s unfortunate you’re already married. Otherwise, I would very much like to court you.”Jake’s behavior was rather overbearing. When he spoke, his eyes rested on Mandy’s body with an intrusive leer which made her quite uncomfortable. However, she needed him to get acquainted with the upper management of York Enterprise. She couldn’t say much. “Mr. Surrey, you’ve misunderstood. Mandy is married, and that’s a fact. However, that marriage is only on paper. The reality is quite the contrary. That loser live-in son-in-law husband of hers had never once held hands with her in the past three years. Aunt
"That's her, Big bro! According to my spy, he said Juliana is no longer hiding it and cheats openly! I didn't want to believe it, but from the looks of it, she's been cheating all this time!" Alexei said to Harvey. He was so upset that he almost cried.Harvey frowned. "That's all you know? What else do you have?"Alexei quickly took out his phone. "My spy has just sent me all the information. Juliana went to Lost City for further studies, and she studied well. Originally, according to the promise made, she should already be back about half a month ago so we could get married. However, she got to know this man called Hawk John at her graduation party. The two became fast friends. She even announced that they're best friends forever!"I thought they were just ordinary friends, but from the looks of it… That isn't it at all! Forget hiding it, Juliana's directly taking him back! I hate this!" Alexei slammed his chest, as if he were in a lot of pain.Harvey was speechless. "Seriou
Harvey's eyes started to twitch as he immediately gave Alexei a look. It was a call for help.Alexei shrugged. There was nothing he could do. However, it was exactly at this time that his phone suddenly started to vibrate. He gave it a weird look and picked it up. Then, he was stunned… He was practically frozen. No longer caring about anything, Alexei immediately ran over to Harvey and hugged his legs tightly. "Bro! Big bro! You have to help me! You must!"Alexei instantly started crying.Harvey promptly bent down and held Alexei's shoulder. As if he had found a way out, he said solemnly, "Don't worry, Alexei. I've always treated you like my own little brother. Your problem is also my problem. Even if the world is collapsing, I will protect you. So, stop worrying!"Alexei was so touched that he couldn't stop himself from weeping. "You're treating me so well, Big bro, even after I sold you out to my Senior…"Harvey's eyes twitched again. "We're family! What can I say? Let's
Harvey's eyes instinctively twitched. "It belongs to me, so why can't I stay here?"Vaida said worriedly, "Now that Grand City is so chaotic and the Sacred Lands are on the verge of getting into a fight, it's really dangerous if you stay outside. Both my father and I are worried about you. So… Shouldn't you move back?"Harvey led Vaida into the living room and said with a smile, "Don't overthink things, Vaida. It's exactly because things are getting unruly that I should stay in Dragon Gate Training Hall to be a stabilizing presence as their scion, right? Not to mention, I've bothered all of you too much all this time. I have too much going on. If I stay there, it will only bother the mayor, Mr. Wenzel, and Mr. Geoffrey. So, it's better if I stay at my own place."However, Harvey paused when he reached this part of the conversation. "Of course, if there's a need, all you need to do is to give me a call and I'll be there."Vaida nodded. "Harvey, other than the reason you've given us
Mandy was a little startled, then looked at Harvey with a strange look. "You're in such a rush to get rid of me? Don't tell me you really want to be the mayor's son-in-law? I've been here less than a day, and there are already plenty of people warning me about you becoming one."Harvey rolled his eyes. "Don't listen to their nonsense. If I really wanted to be his son-in-law, I wouldn't have gone to save you.""Then why are you in such a rush to send me away?"Harvey sighed. "There are really some things that are beyond my abilities. Let's use what happened this time with Clarion as an example. It's true that I let him take the glory, but after doing that, Dan now considers me an enemy and a thorn in his side. "As a member of the Top Ten Families, you have some understanding of him, don't you? Since he can't deal with me effectively, he'll definitely start with you. The reason I'm asking you to leave is for your own safety."Mandy clicked her tongue. "If Dan really wants to do
Emery slowly flipped and opened the Chapter of Ascension. The Chapter itself was old, written with small letters. Accompanied the original texts were notes and some insights.Emery only believed a portion of the rumors regarding the Chapter of Ascension. After reading through the notes and personal reflections, he could ascertain that the Chapter of Ascension was genuine.What was written inside the Chapter of Ascension was indeed capable of completely changing a martial artist's way of thinking.As he read through it, Emery was already subconsciously trying to test and start training by following what was recorded within the Chapter of Ascension. He had just started to let the energy inside of him flow, but had already noticed that his power, that reached a bottleneck for some time, started to have a breakthrough.In just an instant, Emery could already feel somewhat stronger. It was only a small amount, but it was enough to excite him. It meant that the Chapter of Ascension w
The Wright residence, Wolsing.When Janus got out of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, it was around midnight. He looked around carefully before quickly entering a courtyard within the residence, holding a wooden box.He walked through the corridors with full familiarity and entered a study.Emery, the Number One Young Master of Wolsing, was quietly holding a piece of gemstone, brushing it against his thumb.Janus didn't run in. Instead, he waited until Emery was done looking at the gemstone before entering. "Good evening, sir."Emery raised his head and glanced at Janus. "So? Did you get it?"Janus smiled. "Is there anything in this world you want that we can't get for you?"He carefully put the small box on the coffee table and smiled."While Harvey and that idiot Hale are all quite good," he said, "they're all pawns playing to your tune. This time, with Daichi working for us and Sky Plane suffering such a huge loss, we finally have it in our hands. If those monsters from Sky Plane kne
Night fell by the time Harvey and the others returned to Grand City.Kenta had already left midway. It was obvious that he knew following Harvey and the others was pointless now.In the meantime, before returning to Grand City, Harvey had already instructed Clarion to spread the news of Origin Sword Style's extermination back to Grand City and how Earth Hall was instrumental in its destruction.By the time Clarion returned to Grand City, he was immediately enthusiastically welcomed back home. Initially, many people had an issue with him suddenly becoming the leader of Earth Hall. However, they did not expect Clarion to be able to single-handedly handle one of the main pillars of Sky Plane, the Origin Sword Style school shortly after he led the Earth Hall.While many did not know what actually transpired, Clarion and his team brought Isoroku's body back to Grand City. Taking Isoroku's body back was a great achievement on its own as it also means that Sky Plane's overall power would
Isoroku immediately crumpled on the ground. The arrogant master of the Origin Sword Style suddenly surrendered and killed himself. There was only bitterness and regret on his face, as if regretting why he did not simply stay and train in isolation. That way, he would not meet the person before him… Harvey.However, no matter how much regret he had, he needed to commit suicide.That was because he knew very well that Harvey had revealed to him his true identity. If he refused to die, Harvey would turn around and completely wipe out the Origin Sword Style. Now that he decisively made such a decision, Harvey would not return to Sky Plane.Harvey looked at Isoroku's body. With a smirk, he said, "That's why I don't like others to find out who I really am." Then, Harvey planted his foot on Isoroku's longsword. There was a loud clang, and the longsword instantly shattered. Its fragments fired in all directions.All the Origin Sword Style elites had been eradicated completely.A few minut
Isoroku's blade slashed downward. It was so fast that it was barely visible to the naked eye. However, before it could even touch Harvey's body, Isoroku suddenly saw him raise his right hand and flicked, hitting the blade when it was just starting to get close.Clang!It was an extremely simple move. However, Harvey's flick reached the blade first, and he immediately parried the attack. Isoroku's entire body shuddered, and his heart skipped a beat. He thought he was already victorious, but he was left with a shocked expression.He raised his blade and wanted to attempt another attack, but he could not do anything for a long while. Harvey was simply standing there with a calm expression. The two of them were close to each other, and Harvey looked like he was completely exposed. However, for someone like Isoroku, when someone was completely exposed, it also meant that he was not exposed at all. If he was not exposed, his blade could not slash downward at him anymore."You… You must h
