Harvey York smiled. “Shirley Ryan, why are you behaving like when you’re back in university? Randomly lecturing me on life lessons?”“Stop joking around! Our university mates had strong opinions about you in our last reunion. Why don’t you find a decent job instead of loitering around the whole day?” Shirley was worried and nervous for him. “Do you think that you’re happy now? You’re willing to be a hustler for the sake of earning a few bucks. Why don’t you find a better job like in security to have some peace of mind?”Shirley treated Harvey exceptionally well. She was still concerned for Harvey although he was at this dejected state.Harvey reacted the same way he usually did in the past. He stretched out his hand and held Shirley’s face in his hand. “Honestly, I do regret not listening to you all those years. I haven’t learned my lesson. However, I’m quite well now.”Although he was a live-in son-in-law for three years, he did not toss this identity away. He had become the CEO o
Harvey York smiled indifferently and ignored Jerry Zabel who was jumping up and down ready to spar. Instead, he was just about to leave the scene.Jerry stepped forward and blocked Harvey’s path after seeing his movements. He snorted, “Quickly come and pay for the damages! Otherwise, I will call and file a complaint against you right away!”Shirley Ryan, who was standing behind him, softened her heart and said. “Harvey, if you really can’t get the money, I can lend it to you.”Her heart was a little softened seeing that Harvey was so motivated. She did not want Harvey to lose his job because of such a trivial thing.Ella Graves, who had been silent for a long time, could already understand that the man and woman in front of her were Harvey’s former senior and his desk mate.However, how could they be so unreasonable? Just because they were his seniors?At this moment, she could not stand it anymore, and could not help but say, “Why are you so unreasonable? You ran into us, so why
After seeing Jerry Zabel’s membership card, the assistant manager immediately bowed to him respectfully. This was Niumhi Grand Hotel’s rule, which was ‘customers always come first’.After that, she looked at Harvey York coldly and said, “Gentleman, if you aren’t a member of this hotel, you can’t use our services here. Our parking spaces are for customers, outsiders are not allowed to park their vehicles arbitrarily. Now, you need to compensate for the damage to our customer’s car due to your random parking.”Jerry stared at Harvey arrogantly seeing the assistant manager siding with him. He then said, “Didn’t you hear her? Bumpkin, quickly compensate for my damage. Otherwise, I will call the police!”Harvey frowned. He did not expect Niumhi Grand Hotel to have such rules. However, he still said solemnly, “Assistant manager, although I didn't apply for your hotel’s membership card, I have already asked my secretary to book a place. Can’t I park here then?”He was here to treat Ella G
“This…” Shirley Ryan hesitated.She had never had a boyfriend since she grew up. Even if she came out today, it was because Jerry Zabel kept coming for her. He even used his connections and threatened her using her family. Only then she reluctantly agreed to come out for a meal.Feelings did not make any sense and it was very unreasonable. No feelings meant no feelings. If she had feelings for Jerry, she would have agreed to be his girlfriend when she was in college.However, at this moment, Jerry was using Harvey York’s affairs to threaten her, but she was somewhat embarrassed.She had a very good relationship with Harvey while they were in college. There was even something going on between them at one time. Nonetheless, Harvey became the live-in son-in-law of the Zimmer family after he graduated. The two of them completely lost contact.However, having her to watch Harvey crawling out of this place on his knees…Just when Shirley was still hesitating, Harvey became a little ang
Meanwhile, at the parking lot, Jerry Zabel could not help but smile when he saw Harvey York’s phone. He then laughed and said, “Oh my gosh, Harvey. You even use the old-model phone which includes a three-year calling credit for fifteen dollars. You are truly amazing!”He then glanced at Shirley Ryan and said indifferently, “Shirley, can’t you see it at this point? He’s a poor and useless guy. Why do you keep helping him? Do you think that he will be grateful? I know that something was going on between you two back then, but look at him, he’s nothing now. He isn’t even qualified to stand in front of me. Could it be that you are still thinking about his kindness and refuse to be my girlfriend?”Sure enough, Jerry was also not stupid. He knew that it was Harvey who had spoilt his plan when he tried to pursue Shirley back then. He certainly wanted to humiliate Harvey wantonly since he had the opportunity today.Not only he could vent out his anger, but he could also let Shirley’s good i
Willa White, the chief manager of Niumhi Grand Hotel was considered as a very powerful person in Niumhi. The people he met were all high-ranking nobles and he was respected by countless people due to his high position.In Niumhi, some chiefs of the second-class and third-class families did not even dare to take a breather before him.However, Willa knew very well that he had no foundation in Niumhi. He was just a dog being pushed outside by some top families.The largest family among those families were the Yorks.In South Light, York Enterprise represented the Yorks.The CEO of York Enterprise appeared in Niumhi Grand Hotel which was under his charge. How could he not panic? Moreover, judging from Yvonne Xavier’s tone, the CEO might be in a bad mood now.The assistant manager was about to continue taunting Harvey York. However, at this time, she saw all the security guards around her were in shock while looking behind her.She unconsciously turned her head back. The next moment
Jerry Zabel’s expression was dull. Things were happening too fast and he could not understand what was going on due to his low IQ.After a while, he flew into a fury and said, “Why should I pay him? I’m also your member. I have paid seven thousand six hundred dollars for signing up the membership card!”“Didn’t you claim that only members can become diners in Niumhi Grand Hotel? Why can he come in and dine even if he’s just a useless man riding in an electric bike?”Willa White said indifferently, “It was because the reservation for Mr. York is made by our top customer of Niumhi Grand Hotel. To put it simply, the annual fee for signing up for this membership card is about eight hundred thousand dollars. So, do you understand the difference now?”Jerry’s face instantly turned pallid. He reluctantly applied for the entry-level membership card of seven thousand six hundred dollars. What was the concept of eight hundred thousand dollars then? His entire fortune did not even worth that
Ella Graves, who was on the side was puzzled and said before Harvey York spoke. “Harvey, didn’t she ask the security guards to hit you just now? She even asked you to compensate for your senior’s damages and refused to help check our reservation. Why would Mr. White still give her a promotion?”Ella was very curious. Could it be that this is how Niumhi Grand Hotel operated?Willa White, who was beside Harvey, had a sinking feeling in his heart although he was still smiling. He almost vomited blood. He was a smart man, and he probably knew what was going on.The assistant manager probably looked down on him and did not help him check the reservation. She also helped that other guy to deal with Harvey just now. It was outrageous. She was playing with fire.At this moment, Willa broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Harvey was unharmed and well. He showed up at the right time. Otherwise, he would be finished this time.He looked at the assistant manager coldly as soon as he thought
"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
