Harvey York was calm. He knew nothing about medicine or pharmacology.But his deduction was exactly the same as Dr. Frost.According to Dr. Frost’s analysis, Angelina John would only have a day at most.At this point, Justin Walker believed that Angelina was not just sick. As Harvey said, this was an insane sickness.The two were not using the same system to begin with. It would be impossible to use medical skills to cure Angelina.Without a second thought, Justin took a deep breath and said, “Sir York, since you can understand Angelina’s condition, can you save her?”“Not a problem,” Harvey replied with a nonchalant tone.“But I’m still going to tell you the same thing: as long as you’ll all agree to my conditions, then I’ll save her.“Number one, give Kait and her mother an explanation. The whole truth.“Number two, Kait will take the position as Walker Corporation’s CEO.“As long as you agree to these conditions, I don’t even want your money, I’ll save her right this insta
Justin Walker let out a sigh of relief after seeing Harvey York nod, then quietly said, “Harvey. Even though the conditions aren’t met yet, I’ve already shown you my sincerity.“I hope that you can do your best to cure Angelina John.“Please don’t tell me that you’ll wait until tomorrow. When that day comes, she might just stay vegetative her entire life.”Harvey chuckled.“Not bad, at least I can see that you’re sincere.“Don’t worry. I always keep my word.”He signaled others to leave the room for the time being and walked toward Angelina.Harvey took out a scalpel while looking at Angelina, who was as stiff as a rock, then cut right into her wrist.A stream of blood filled with cold air flew out, cooling down the sickroom quite a bit.Along with the sight, Angelina could be seen softening up rapidly.Harvey tapped on her head lightly moments after, causing her to fall asleep.A few minutes later, Harvey then walked out of the sickroom nonchalantly.Justin immediately rus
Harvey York then playfully replied, “Deputy Branch Leader Walker, you’ve been in this line of work for so many years now. How come you still don't have any sense?“Never have the heart to harm others...“But always keep your guard up against others!“Don’t you really have any idea why I’m being this cautious around you?”Justin Walker lightly chuckled.“Rest assured, Sir York. I’ll do my best to cooperate for the sake of my wife.”Harvey just smiled. He brought Kait Walker with him and then left.Justin’s eyes lit up as soon as Harvey was gone, then he dialed a number on his phone.“Prince Jean, I’ll be giving Kait a statement tomorrow at the Walker family club.“At the same time, I’ll announce your marriage to her!“Right, the man named Harvey can easily defeat Chief Leonard Bray. I won’t be able to do much about him.“I hope that you’ll come up with a plan against him, Prince.“It’s best that we deal with him permanently before Kait gets her statement.”“I think the sigh
Ten o’clock, Lujiazui, inside a large meeting room at the Walker Corporation building.Every single higher-up of the company was there. Every one of them had authority, status and was very outspoken.When Kait Walker, in a black suit, walked in with Harvey, who was calm and collected, everyone glared at them with judgemental eyes.Those gazes were filled with disdain, doubt, and rebellion, but none showed obedience in their eyes as Harvey wanted.Naturally, in their eyes, Kait’s sudden rise to power had ruined those people’s benefits along with their businesses up to this point.That was why those higher-ups were instinctively opposing her.Out of all those people, a man wearing an Armani suit, while dangling his cigar on his lips with a look of an unscrupulous playboy, was the most disgruntled.Inside the spacious meeting room, he was selfishly puffing smoke everywhere.Kait slightly frowned without saying anything, then walked toward the main seat and turned on the microphone
Harvey York squinted while looking at the man with an Armani suit.At the same time, he casually flipped through the documents in his hands.The man was extremely unscrupulous and did not pay any respect toward Harvey at all. He clearly had an extraordinary background.Harvey found information about the man soon after. He was Ronald John, Angelina John’s cousin and a collateral relative of the Golden Sands’ John family.The most important thing was that he was the former executive CEO.With Harvey taking the position would mean that Ronald was demoted back to an ordinary higher-up.Before Harvey even spoke, Kait Walker coldly gazed toward Ronald and said, “Ronald John, please think before you speak.“You know exactly how I took this position. You won’t be able to defame me with just a few words.“Besides, as the CEO, I have the authority to appoint someone I trust as the executive CEO.“If you’re dissatisfied, complain to the board of directors about it!“Another thing, watch
Everything happened because Kait Walker dismissed Ronald John from his position as executive CEO.Kait would have to take the blame if the company’s stocks were to plummet. She might even have to step down because of that incident as well!It was safe to say that those were elaborate traps set up by Justin Walker and Angelina John for her.Kait’s incapability would be blamed if she were to be fired on her first day in the position, and it wouldn’t be Justin’s fault for not keeping his promise!After understanding the situation, the higher-ups didn’t even bother standing up for Kait.They were all playfully looking at her, seeing how she would solve the problem in the end!After seeing Kait frown, Ronald then nonchalantly sat back on his chair and crossed his legs.“CEO Walker, let’s not talk about whether I should be reinstated as the executive CEO or not.“You should at least apologize to all the higher-ups and me here, right?“Because of you, everyone’s efforts for the past
“An explanation? I’ll give you an explanation right now.”Harvey York walked forward calmly, then swung his palm against Ronald John’s face again.Slap!“A mere higher-up dares to threaten both the CEO and the executive CEO?!”Slap!“Where did you get all this courage from?!”Slap!“CEO Walker already said earlier that my will is hers as well. I’m hitting you right now in her place!”Slap!“As the previous executive CEO, not only are you not doing your job properly and contributing to the company after getting such a high salary. You’re even threatening the company with your contract?”Slap!“The company gave you your paycheck for you to come up with ideas, not for you to rebel!”After a few slaps across his face, Ronald was severely bruised, but he was still screaming in anger then.“You bastard! How dare you hit me?!“It’s obviously because of you and Kait that Star Chaebol turned down the offer to work with us!“Both of you are responsible for this!”“We’re responsib
Looking at Ronald John, who was terrified and enraged at the same time, Harvey York threw a document on the table and calmly said, “So, what if it’s Star Chaebol? It’s just a business establishment from Country J anyway!“Is the power of attorney really hard to get from them? Do you really need the CEO or executive CEO to deal with this matter?“Any one of you higher-ups should be able to seal the deal!“If not, are you even worthy of getting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of salary and dividends?“Is the company paying you to slack off?”Harvey pointed at the resignation letters and coldly exclaimed, “If any of you think that I’m being too arrogant and illogical…“Or you think that your capabilities are limited and cannot complete the task. Then it’s simple: get out.“The people that get out right now will not miss out on this year’s pay and dividends.”The room was dead silent after hearing Harvey’s words. Even Ronald, who was yapping quite a lot in the beginning, tu
Slap!Harvey gave another slap at Jun's face."So what if I did? I'll kill you if you waste anymore of my time!" Before Jun could even finish, Harvey had already grabbed him by his neck. Onmyojis are physically weaker than most, so Jun could not fight back at all while being held like that."You fool! Release Mr. Jun!""Mr. Jun is one of the best among the onmyojis in Sky Plane!""Don't show any disrespect!"All the Islanders roared when they saw Harvey disrespected Jun so much. They quickly drew their long swords and pointed them at Harvey. Dozens of people also started to approach Mandy. Clarion and the others also reacted quickly, protecting Mandy behind them. The atmosphere between both sides became extremely tense in just one moment.Harvey's hand never released Jun's throat as he calmly turned to Kenta and said, "Alright, Kenta. Let's continue the discussion of our three conditions. The first condition is that you must escort us out of Sky Plane and guarantee our safety. A
"You really are very impressive, Kenta. It's quite rare for someone like you to exist within the Fujihara family," commented Harvey after he took a deep breath and loosened his fists. "I have a feeling that someone like you will eventually climb up the ladder. Who knows, you might be the next Island Nation's Emperor."All the Islanders around them had strange looks after they heard what Harvey had just said. Even Kenta's eyes twitched before he replied helplessly, "You're joking, Mr. Harvey. I'm just someone from the branch family. The emperor's throne has always belonged to the main branch and the main branch alone."Then, Kenta changed the subject after that. "Since it sounds like you have a change of mind, does it mean you're willing to fulfill your part of the promise?"Harvey calmly said, "Not exactly. This is just a simple trade, and so is the trade's content. I'll give you the Chapter of Ascension, and you promise three things. That's reasonable…"At this point, the mysterio
Looking at Kenta's expression, Harvey's eyes narrowed. The Islanders could become fanatical most of the time, and he knew that very well from how Kenta was presenting himself. Their people believed in collectivism to the point of radicalism. One single word from their superiors was enough to make them sacrifice themselves and fight to the bitter end, not to mention if they were convinced if it was for the greater good.In short, if he really refused to give them the Chapter of Ascension, then Kenta would really give up on this pretentious act and detonate the Emerald Jewel. However, while the Emerald Jewel could injure him, he knew it could not kill him. But, Mandy and the others were another case entirely. If the Emerald Jewel was detonated, none of them could escape.Harvey frowned, realizing that the situation was getting more complicated."Mr. Harvey, you understand that the Chapter of Ascension isn't worth the lives of the people here. Not to mention if you do manage to obtain
"Firstly, this is Sky Plane. This is the Sacred Martial Art Training Ground for the Island Nation. Based on the promise made between each of the Sacred Training Grounds, we can consider one as hostile if they enter without an invitation. That's why when you barged into this place without invitation and were suspected of murdering the citizens of Sky Plane, we have the right to stop you from leaving the place and investigate."Secondly, Mr. Sora is a citizen of Sky Plane. It is within reason for us to protect his safety. Thirdly, Grand City will need to give us a reasonable explanation for this."And finally, if any of you refuse to cooperate, then according to the laws of Sky Plane's Admin Board, we have the right to kill all the intruders!" said Kenta with a wide grin."I know you're extremely strong, Mr. Harvey. So strong that you're the best here. But the question is, what's the use if you have personal strength in this situation? Even if you can defeat a hundred, can you defeat
"Mr. Harvey, I know how powerful you are and how invincible you can be. I also have a lot of respect toward you and wouldn't dare show you any insolence," explained Kenta with a harmonious smile. "However, I need to negotiate with you as it's part of my duties. I hope you can calm down so we can talk."First of all, Ms. Mandy is alright. While it looks like you have to come and save her, you need to trust me when I said if it's not for our effort, the men from Origin Sword Style wouldn't have waited until today. With their powers, if we didn't try and stop them with everything we can, Ms. Mandy would be a corpse now. You have to give credit where credit is due, don't you think? I believe someone of your caliber won't deny it, right?"Secondly, I can swear by the name of the Ruling Royal Family that everything that happened today had nothing to do with us. Since we have decided to make a trade with you, we won't stab you in the back. Our conscience is clear when it's regarding this."
There were two men in extravagant yet classical outfits in the helicopter. Then, one of the men who were a little paler got out of the helicopter. The other man simply showed his face in the shadows of the helicopter's cabin.The man with the pale face gave Harvey a smile and bowed to him from a distance. His etiquette was perfect, and he was remarkably well-mannered.Then, he gave Harvey a gentle smile and said, "Hello, Mr. Harvey. Your reputation precedes you. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm one of the persons in charge of the Sky Plane Admin Board. I'm Fujihara Kenta, a member of the Island Nation's ruling royal family. I'm also Daichi's younger brother. My brother has just given me a call saying that he's waiting for you at Grand City's Paradise Island Restaurant. He hoped that you could deliver the Chapter of Ascension as promised."Harvey's expression turned cold. After signaling Clarion to hold their positions and to protect Mandy, then he walked over and narrowed his eyes.
Mandy looked a little shaken in the smoke, but after she had regained her composure, there was a hint of calmness in her eyes. But the moment she saw Harvey, there was no hiding her joy.The two of them looked at each other. It seemed like it had been a very long time since they last met each other, especially after such a struggle.After hesitating a little, Mandy said breathlessly, "Harvey, you…"And then, she could not continue after that. From being husband and wife, and arriving at this point in time. All she could say was that this was fate. Mandy did not even know how to face Harvey anymore. She was worried that it was all a dream, a dream that she had while she was dying. And once she awakened, she would once again be pulled back into a reality of despair.Once she was sure that it was not a dream, she suddenly cried. "Harvey, it really is you…""I'm sorry. I was a little late. I should have come sooner," said Harvey as he walked over and held Mandy in his arms. He was fee
After Sora had said his piece to Harvey, he immediately roared, "Scram! All of you, move aside! That way, I can consider letting you all live! Otherwise, none of you can leave Sky Plane alive!"Slap!Harvey was not letting Sora have his way. Instead, he slapped Sora's face to the point where he fell to the ground. "Do you think you have the right to order me around?"Sora crawled back up and angrily yelled, "You dare to touch me, you fool?!"Slap!Harvey gave another slap. "So what if I touch you? You think I can't? Come now. Tell me who's the one behind all this?"Sora coldly replied, "There's no one else except me!"Slap!Harvey delivered another slap. "You? It's not that I'm trying to underestimate you, but someone with your brain can't think of such a scheme. Not only did someone leak out information to me, having Sverker to wait for me, even you are here to humiliate my woman. And you tell me there's no one else pulling the strings?"Harvey's expression turned cold. "I'm
All the Origin Sword Style elites only had horror-streaked faces when they saw Sora standing face to face with Harvey. They did not dare to make any move at all. There was no question about it. Harvey's decisiveness and calmness had already filled their hearts with terror to the point that Harvey's gaze were enough to make the elites shudder and fall on their knees.When faced with someone so powerful like Magnus, they had already lost the faith to make any attacks.Harvey looked at Sora, whose face was pale. With a smile, he said, "Do you want my woman to undress?"Sora's eyes twitched as he instinctively wanted to retreat. But in the end, he managed to compose himself. He gritted his teeth and replied, "Impossible! How can you be alive? Sverker went to stop you together with 500 Origin Sword Style elites! It was enough to kill multiple True Warriors! How is it possible that you're appearing before me unharmed!" Sora was almost screaming in the end. There was despair and regret in
