Harvey replied calmly, “What do you think?”Angelina giggled.“I think you’re quite the character, Sir York. You wouldn’t do something this petty.”Harvey said slowly, “Since we made a deal, I’ll always keep my promise. You promised to give Kait a statement, so I’ll help you deal with the chest pain you had since you started training in ancient martial arts.”“Anyway, this isn’t too much trouble.”There was something that Harvey did not say. When Angelina trained in martial arts before, there was another side effect other than the chest pain.But because both her symptoms were completely suppressed, there were no other symptoms that showed up.The moment the two symptoms went away would be the moment where other symptoms would show up one after another.Of course, if Angelina stopped playing petty tricks against him, Harvey wouldn’t mind dealing with all her problems completely without her knowing.Harvey picked up a scalpel as he spoke, and made a light cut on Angelina’s back
Pfft!The moment the blood came in contact with his head, Harvey fell into a trance. He turned into an absent-minded state.Angelina laughed when she saw Harvey in this state.She caressed Harvey’s face with her right hand and whispered quietly, “What a good boy.”“Come. I’ll be asking you a few questions, so make sure you answer them honestly. Okay?”“Tell me, did Kait give you half of her shares she owns in Walker Corporation?”“Yes.”Harvey nodded, seemingly dazed.“So why are you still helping her?”“Because she’s pretty.”A silly smile leaked out of Harvey’s face.“Am I pretty?” Angelina chuckled while asking.“You are. You’re prettier than Kait.”Harvey nodded constantly, showing a yearning look on his face.His appearance made Angelina quite scornful. She used her index finger to lift Harvey’s chin up and chuckled lightly.“So sign this contract for me. If you do, I’ll kiss you on the lips.”“Come on, baby boy.”Angelina took out the contract from under her pill
“You’re not affected by the technique?!”Angelina quickly returned to her senses.‘Not only was Harvey unaffected by my Lost Soul Beetle, but he even managed to record our whole conversation?!’Angelina went on the defensive in just a blink of an eye.“Indeed, the Beetle Possession Technique is quite miraculous. It’s a shame you screwed up during your training and only learned this much.”“Besides, you’ve only just recovered. Do you really think you’ll succeed when you’re setting me up in such a rush?”Harvey flashed her a playful look.“Besides, there’s no such thing as free lunch in this world. You wouldn’t act this nice toward me unless you want something in return!”“I’m the man who threw your dignity to the ground and trampled on it. But you don’t hate me, and instead you’re welcoming me with open arms. Unless I’m a complete idiot, I’ll definitely know that you’re up to something.”“The only thing I don’t understand is that the high and mighty lady of the John family actu
Facing Harvey’s calm gaze, Angelina’s expression changed frantically. Finally, she let out a helpless sigh and waved her right hand.Harvey sensed that the snipers left immediately. The rifle that was aimed directly at him disappeared as well.Angelina put her clothes on properly, then sat in front of Harvey. She looked perplexed.“Sir York, can you tell me who you actually are?”Harvey replied calmly, “Is there even a point for you to know?”Angelina froze, then burst out laughing.“That’s true, there’s no point at all.”“Let me answer your first question: Angelina did die by my hands.”“But Kait’s mother was already a vegetable before I got into the Walker family.”“I don’t know what happened either, but I’m guessing that Justin was the one who did that.”“Justin?”Harvey frowned.“Why would he do that?”“Kait’s mother was a professional in ancient martial arts and also his wife. Why would he do something like that?”Angelina flashed him a playful look.“Sir York. You’
At the same time, at the Walker Mansion… Inside the extremely magnificent hall of the family villa, around thirty people had taken their seats.Men and women were there, both young and old. Every single one of them looked glamorous and refined.There were members of Mordu's Walker family.Although the Walker family was not one of the top ten families, they were still a top rated family with an immense background within Mordu.Justin’s bloodline was only one out of five within the family.On this day, Justin requested his father, senior of the Walker family, Anton Walker, to come to the family residence as a statement for Kait.Anton seemed quite young, though his hair was completely white. He was dressed in traditional clothing and sat on a wooden armchair in the middle of the hall. His temperament seemed rather fierce.Right next to him, Justin was steadily pinching his cigar and slowly lighting it up. He blew up several puffs of smoke, completely poker-faced. Everyone pres
In a blink of an eye, several strong men in suits appeared everywhere. They were not part of the Walker family. As soon as they showed up, they had already blocked every single exit from the hall. The other members of the family were quite unphased when Kait’s expression changed slightly , as if everything that was happening was nothing out of the ordinary.In just a moment, the hall had turned into an extremely dangerous place. If anyone were to enter or exit the place, they would have to pay a huge price.Kait turned around, her face frantic.Lucas, dressed in a suit, crossed his arms as he walked in steadily through the hall entrance.Although the handsome and talented Lucas was wearing a warm smile, an unspeakable aloofness lingered around him.It was as if he was a venomous snake, ready to strike at any moment.Behind him, two other people followed.One of them was the hall manager of Paramount, Lenny Thompson. After Lucas’s most trusted subordinate died, Lenny took his p
“There are two reasons why I’m here today.”“Number one: I’m here to be a witness for you and reclaim justice for my mother-in-law.”“Number two: I’m here to complete our wedding. Your grandfather, your father, your aunt, your uncle—every single member of your family agreed that you’ll be marrying me today.”“Marry you?!”In her rage, Kait found herself chuckling. “Lucas, did you not hear what I just said?!”“I’d rather die and slam my head on the floor right now than marry you!”But Lucas remained calm. “Even if you did that, you’d have to marry me no matter what.”“You’ll be a part of the Jean family.”“Whether you’re dead or alive.”“After all, you have to obey your parents’ orders!”“Your matchmakers’ orders!”“You’re going to marry me…”“Whether you like it or not!”Kait’s tone was ice. “Why don’t you try it, then? I guarantee that even my corpse won’t end up with you!”But Lucas was not enraged by those words. Instead, he responded to her with a warm smile.“So y
As the Walkers left, Lucas waved his right hand. His subordinates brought out a traditional wooden bed from the corner of the hall.Colorful lights and decorations were placed soon after, lighting up the hall with a joyful ambience.The sight shocked Kait. Subconsciously, she tried to leave.Tap!However, Macy spread out her hands and blocked Kait’s path. She smiled at Kait.“I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave today, Madame.”“What did you say?”Kait threw a scornful glare at Lucas, gritting her teeth.“What are you trying to do, Lucas?”“What am I trying to do?”Lucas chuckled.“I wanted to see the statement that the Walker family would give you.”“But your grandfather did not do that, and even gave me a mission.”“You should know, I always respect my elders…”“That’s why, I’m going to complete Grandfather-In-Law’s mission right now.”“There’s no rush to get the shares back. Let’s commence with the wedding festivities for now…”Lucas stretched out his hand and lifte
"While Country H is said to have existed for so many years, the people can be quite narrow-minded. They'll act all arrogant because they have a bit of talent. Not only that, but they also refuse to accept the rest of the civilized world. There's no need to get angry with these people," Juliana said to Hawk's men, her tone filled with concern."All of them say they love their country, but the truth is that they'll leave for greener pastures as soon as opportunities present themselves. Despite agreeing with your values, I'm still part of this country. I wish I could really be part of you!" Juliana said, envy and disappointment on her face.Hawk and the others smiled when they saw Juliana's attitude. If most of the people from Country H acted like this, their cultural victory would be assured. At this point, all of them smiled widely and abandoned whatever upset feelings they had from just now.-About ten minutes later, Harvey took Alexei back to the Dragon Gate Training Hall. Va
When Juliana and the others saw Harvey and Alexei leave, all of them could only grit their teeth in anger despite being genuinely surprised. They didn't expect Harvey's call to be enough to remove Hawk's status as a Knight Templar with one call. His quick action had humiliated Hawk and his men.Normally speaking, they would never believe that Harvey would be able to do such a thing. They didn't expect that reality could be so cruel to the point that it was choking them. Harvey was so influential that they found themselves struggling to breathe."Calm down, Hawk. Don't feel down. I don't think that what happened is real," Juliana said as she subconsciously consoled Hawk. "His reputation is built on boasts. He doesn't understand just how powerful your culture is! There's no way he can affect the powerful Knights Templar."I suspect he's working with someone else and got a fake number, so that he could intimidate and trick you! In other words, you can't let this confuse you! Even i
Harvey narrowed his eyes and said calmly to Hawk, "If you're really that powerful, you won't be wearing that expression when you see me."The so-called top from their side would not only treat him with respect, but they would also get the hell out of there as fast as possible.However, Hawk didn't understand what Harvey was trying to convey. He smiled coldly and said, "You don't understand what the Knight Templars mean, do you? Before this name, even dragons and beasts must fall! And when it comes to someone like you… The moment I showed you my identity, you won't even have the privilege to bend your knee!"Harvey refuted calmly, "If you're really that influential, won't it humiliate you completely if I can make you bend your knee with one call?"Hawk's expression turned brutal. "Oh? You're going to make a move? Come on, then! Show me just how good you really are!"Harvey nodded and pulled out his phone as he looked at Hawk. "Since you asked for it, I guess I have no choice but
Harvey scoffed. He couldn't be bothered by wasting his breath speaking to someone like Juliana, who obviously had been hit on the head. Instead, he turned to Alexei. "I'm leaving now. You either leave with me, or you can stay here and be a simp. But remember—if you stay as her simp, don't appear in front of me again. A man who has no pride and a backbone doesn't have the right to stand in front of me."Hearing that, there was a hint of hesitation on Alexei's face.When Juliana saw that Harvey didn't agree to her demand and even changed the subject, she smiled coldly. "If you have a death wish, then I'll grant it to you. I won't pull my punches from here on out. And you, Alexei. You can try and leave with him… As long as you can bear the consequences of that!"Alexei's expression was filled with even more hesitation. In the end, he gritted his teeth and left together with Harvey.Juliana's smile turned icy when she saw what had happened. "Good, Alexei! You'll regret this! From n
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault! My entire fault! I shouldn't have forced you!" Alexei said, lowering his head dejectedly. Seeing this, Juliana walked over and extended her hand, raising Alexei's chin. She said coldly, "It's good that you know you're making a mistake. Now, Hawk and I will need to get some rest at the hotel. We'll also be going to a charity ball later. Since we're very busy, we don't have the time to pay for our meal. Remember to pay for it and our presidential suite as well. Understand?"While Juliana looked down at Alexei, she didn't mind making Alexei pay for everything. From her perspective, it was a matter of course.When Alexei heard it, he still nodded despite the dark expression on his face.He wanted to take his wallet out, but Harvey quickly stopped Alexei and took his wallet instead. "If you have the money for a woman, why don't you come with me and eat something at the nearby stall? Don't waste your life and time on a woman like this."Harvey dragged A
After Alexei heard what Harvey had to say, his expression was filled with hesitation. It was obvious that he did have feelings for Juliana. However, there was also fear. He didn't know what he should do.He was afraid that Juliana might really abandon him. At the same time, he was really afraid that Juliana was cheating. Alexei felt like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place."Alexei? Why are you here?" At this time, a cold and arrogant voice could be heard. "Are you here to ambush me? So that you can annoy me?"Harvey instinctively turned around and saw Juliana and Hawk walking out from the restaurant hand-in-hand like a wealthy couple. Behind them were their secretaries, lawyers, and bodyguards. They looked like important people; on the other hand, Alexei looked like a beggar by the street.Alexei quickly ran over, forcing himself to smile despite being upset. "I heard you're back, Juliana, so I came over to pick you up. You must be tired now. I've arranged for a pre
"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
