Needless to say, Wyatt, Jake, and Cecilia wanted Harvey to die. Why would they consider helping Harvey right now?Additionally, the others were eager to auction again, because “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” was so famous that there were many people who wanted it.At that moment, a young man in a suit walked out from behind the stage with a few bodyguards.“Mr. Cloude…” The auctioneer let out a sigh of relief when he saw the young man. This was Jude of the Cloudes, the person in charge of the auction, and he already knew about what had happened just now.Jude’s cold gaze travelled around the room before settling on Harvey. He smiled at him. “Sir, I heard that you helped identify the authenticity of “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak”. To express our apology, we will pay you an appraisal fee of one hundred and fifty-two thousand dollars. Please do not refuse it.”Harvey frowned slightly. What did Jude mean? Giving him an appraisal fee? Was he shamelessly trying to get out of
Rosalie who was standing nearby spoke up, “Jude, you are way out of line.”“Rosalie…” Jude frowned. He did not care about Mandy, in fact, the entire Zimmer family was nothing to him. However, things were different when it came to the Naiswells since they were also a top family in the provincial town. Since Rosalie had spoken, it would be bad if he did not give her some face.Jude smiled while thinking about it, and eventually said, “I won’t say too much since Miss Naiswell has spoken, but some people should be a little more self-aware and know their place. It’s as the saying goes “a man’s wealth is his ruin by invoking others’ greed”. This saying has been popular since ancient times, hasn’t it?”Jude gazed at Harvey pointedly after that, then turned around and left. He already knew that “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” was in Harvey’s hands, but was it not easy for him to get it back?Harvey frowned contemplatively. He knew what Jude was thinking, but he was not worried that Ju
Mandy, Rosalie, and Yvonne, three incredible women, stood around Harvey. Many men looked at him enviously.Yvonne did not care about other people’s gazes, and looked at Harvey with a smile. “Mr. York, I’m interested in the “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” you have. I wonder if you are willing to transfer it?”The entire audience went silent as soon as Yvonne said that. After a while, some people gasped and exclaimed in shock.If the Cloude family was a mogul in South Light, then the Yorks was a mogul among moguls. Since this lady who represented the Yorks had said that, if this live-in son-in-law dared to refuse, he might not even know how he died later.Many people looked at Harvey smugly, wanting to see what he was going to do.Harvey said with interest, “Name your price then, Miss Xavier.”“Anything is fine; we can afford any price. Our CEO is very interested in your painting.” Many people gasped when Yvonne mentioned the word CEO.The new CEO of York Enterprise was myste
Mandy was slightly shocked. She had never expected Harvey to refuse money and exchange it for the Forever Mine instead. If he willed it, a few hundred million dollars would have also been a fair price. However, this man only thought of her even under such circumstances, and he just wanted to make her happy.Mandy looked at Harvey and bit her lip unconsciously as she thought about it. A strange feeling bloomed in her heart.“Miss Xavier, you can’t give it to him! The painting may be fake!” Jake suddenly blurted out.What? Why did he say that? Everyone immediately turned to him.Yvonne looked over, speechless. Where had this guy come from? She was just having fun while acting with the CEO. Why did he have to suddenly appear like this?However, Yvonne continued acting as though she was shocked. She smiled hesitantly and asked, “Sir, why did you say that?”Jake said solemnly, “Miss Xavier, Harvey is just a live-in son-in-law. He doesn’t know how to identify the authenticity of the pa
Harvey’s eyes lit up. He could finally enter the bedroom after sleeping in the study room for three years. At that moment, he could not wait to go back home.As for the idea of a divorce, he had blocked the thought out of his mind.Jake gritted his teeth, and could not help but glare at Cecilia.Cecilia nodded and said coldly, “Mandy, you must not be deceived by him. He is just a useless guy and has not changed. He was just lucky that he got the painting, whether it’s real or not, for only fifteen dollars. You must not accept the gift from him. Otherwise, if the Yorks discover that the painting is fake one day, then—”Slap!Yvonne had strode forward in her high heels and slapped Cecilia across the face before she could finish.“You… You...” Cecilia held her face in shock, unable to speak for a long time.“What?” Yvonne’s face was cold. “I don’t care what kind of relationship you both have, and I don’t care whether you are joking or being sarcastic. However, I don’t allow anyone
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, Harvey. Do you really think that highly of yourself?” Jake laughed. “If you are so awesome, then why not ask Yvonne to come here now? Why not let her send you home? If you can do it, I will kneel for you now!”Yvonne quickly walked over in her high heels while he was talking.“Mr. York, I have already informed our CEO about the exchange of the painting. He specifically asked me to tell you that you were being taken advantage of this time. To express our apologies, we agree to the investment that Miss Zimmer applied for. She can come and sign the papers tomorrow,” Yvonne said, then continued, “Also, if you don’t mind, I would like to give you a ride back. After all, we have just finished a business deal here. I have the responsibility to send you home safely.”“Okay, thank you then, Miss Xavier. I’ll take you up on that.” Harvey smiled and then casually glanced at Jake. What? Did Yvonne come over and ask to give him a ride? The CEO of York Enterprise was expressing
Harvey was speechless when he saw Rosalie’s body trembling. ‘Miss Rosalie, can you please not act like this? Others will think I’m teasing you.’‘I have a wife, I’m not that kind of person!’Rosalie gritted her teeth and said softly before Harvey could speak, “I heard… Although you have been married to your wife for three years… you both never did that thing before, and you have not even touched her hand… is it true?”“What thing?” Harvey absently asked.Rosalie stomped her feet, her cheeks a bright red. “The thing that happens between a husband and wife!”Harvey became more speechless. ‘You, a pure and innocent little girl, are looking at me with those big eyes and asking me such a question. I don’t know how to answer!’However, Harvey felt helpless after being stared at by Rosalie for a long time. He finally sighed and said, “Well, you’re not wrong…”“Great!” Rosalie exclaimed softly.“Huh?” Harvey frowned. ‘What’s so good about knowing my embarrassing story? Can you not be l
“Please stop it, Mom! We need to thank Harvey since he was the one who introduced me to Miss Xavier, which helped me get the investment,” Mandy pleaded.“Really?” Lilian exclaimed in surprise. She had always been worried about the investment, so she stopped talking about Harvey since he had helped them.“Yes, Mom, let’s get some rest now, alright? We’ll discuss the other things after I settle everything with York Enterprise,” Mandy said soothingly.“Okay, we’ll take care of the important stuff first,” Lilian agreed.“The floor hasn’t been mopped for days, get to it! You’ve been going out so often lately, do you even see this as your home?” Lilian sneered, glaring at Harvey.“Alright, got it,” Harvey replied as he was used to Lilian’s attitude by now. He had been doing the chores for the past three years anyway, so it wasn’t a big problem for him.Mandy stared at Harvey contemplatively for a while, then went to take a shower.After half an hour, Harvey’s mobile phone rang. It was
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
"The joy's of youth," said Isoroku with a sigh of admiration. "To be young means to be fearless. It also means that there is no respect, and there is ignorance just how difficult it is for something to be overcome. When I'm in a good and chatty mood, you're attempting to anger me. You think that it's your power that makes me pause when I'm the one who's bestowing you this opportunity. You're simply too naive."Harvey calmly replied, "So you want to use your age to force me to respect you. Don't you understand that it's always out with the old and in with the new? If you don't, you'll really get thrown out one day."While the two of them were calmly exchanging words, the truth was from the moment they met each other, they were already clashing against each other. "Looks like there's nothing more to say."Isoroku sighed and slowly pointed the edge of his blade at Harvey. "I will now kill everyone close to you first before slicing your limbs. I'll make you die as you scream in pain."
Harvey was already making quite a concession. When he left with Sora, he was already prepared to kill him once he had arrived at his destination. But since Isoroku came knocking, he did not mind giving Sora up since he was not that important anyway."You're so confident, Harvey. So full of vigor. However, you forgot that in this condition, you're not in a place to negotiate," said Isoroku coldly. "Even if someone's going to come up with the conditions, that person will be me."Let's see now… Release that disappointing son of mine, and then leave your woman behind. Then, you will personally maim the limbs of your own men and then yourself. Only then will I allow you to leave on your knees. How does that sound?" It was clear Isoroku thought little of Harvey in the end."I'm not in the business of making life difficult for unimportant people like you. But since the Origin Sword Style has lost so many people, I need to get something back for them as their Predecessor, correct?"Then, H
"I've already heard your name even before you step foot in Grand City. That's because the Six Schools are all connected to the Origin Sword Style. By defeating all Six Schools alone, you have disrespected me," explained Isoroku, as if he was in the mood for a chat."What's more, you even killed my beloved student Sverker and even took down my worthless son? If it isn't because my source is very well trusted, I couldn't even believe it. For you to reach this level of power at this age, it's beyond amazing. Perhaps it's true when they say that the youths should never be underestimated!" Isoroku said with a sigh of admiration.Dozens of elites stepped out from the other military helicopters. They were probably Isoroku's personal students. All of them looked at Harvey with suspicion and shock. All of them knew how powerful Sverker was, that was why they found it even harder to believe that Harvey could defeat Sverker.Even if they put Sverker's defeat on one side, Sora was accompanied b
The opposing force got out of the helicopters after they landed, armed with weapons. Some were melee weapons, some were firearms, and they looked high and mighty all the way.Kenta had no choice but to step up. He raised his hand and yelled, "I'm from Fujihara…"But before he could even finish, someone from the other side had already pulled the trigger. A bullet streaked through Kenta's hair, and he finally broke a sweat when he realized what had just happened.Harvey knew very clearly that they were coming for him after seeing what happened. That was why he decided not to stay still anymore and stepped forward. He coldly said, "You're here for me, aren't you? Tell Isoroku to come talk to me."I have to say you are quite brave, Harvey. Calling me by name without any honorifics," A stern and cold voice came from a helicopter right before them. The door opened, and an islander slowly walked out. It was a man with white hair and beard.His figure was thin and even looked sickly, defi
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
