When the Leos saw who the man was, they were so shocked they started gasping for air.“Isn’t… Isn’t that Jason?!”Someone who recognized Jason, the man who once had a bright future in both Hong Kong and Las Vegas six years ago, yelled out loud.In an instant, everyone’s gaze shifted toward Jason.“That’s him?!”“How is this possible?!”Many thoughts came to everyone’s minds. They weren’t able to come to senses from the sheer shock.Jason ignored everyone’s confused gaze completely, and walked steadily toward Melissa. He sized up the woman in front of him, who seemed to have been frozen stiff.“I heard the old b*stard, Alan, got placed under house arrest because of you,” he said with a faint smile.“That little f*cker Chris got offed by you as well.”“You’re pretty good, Melissa.”A profound smile played on Jason’s lips.Melissa’s eyes twitched.“Jason? You’re not a part of the family for a long time now!”“Why are you still here?!”“You useless b*stard!”“Get out of her
Ten o’clock at night. Nothing could be seen in the dark night sky.Hong Kong was engulfed by darkness. Everywhere was covered in dark clouds.It was as if a rainstorm was approaching. Truly, a worrisome sight.Harvey entered the Yorks’ garden villa after receiving Queenie’s call stating that Marcel wanted to see him.He went as soon as possible after hearing that.After all, he had been staying in the garden villa for the past few days. Normally speaking, he would constantly bump into Marcel.Queenie wouldn’t have called if it wasn’t anything important.By the time he arrived, refreshments had already been prepared inside the villa’s dining hall.Marcel didn’t move his utensils even after seeing Harvey arrive. He was holding a few pictures, and handed them to Harvey when Harvey approached.Harvey nodded at Selena and Queenie, who were right in front of him, before turning to look at the pictures.There were two people shown. One of them was a mixed-race woman mixed-race, and
If the wealthy families from both Hong Kong and Las Vegas were involved, Harvey wouldn’t have that much interest in the situation.But after Marcel pointed out Jason’s true intentions of returning, Harvey couldn’t help but frown.Harvey had just kicked a bunch of Islanders out of Hong Kong and Las Vegas, but Jason had just to show up.Judging from Jason’s resume, he represented the western army who were invading Country H’s bridgehead.Harvey felt that he needed to put his guard up after realizing this fact.“You want me to make a call and send him back to The Empire?” Harvey asked.The Empire still owed him a favor. If Harvey wanted to, the eldest princess of The Empire, Victoria, would surely do as he asked.But unless this was completely necessary, Harvey wouldn’t want to ask for such a favor. If he didn’t use his favors sparingly, he would have less chances to ask for another.“Even if you manage to chase him off once, can you guarantee he won’t come back again after a few
“Another thing. Since the fourth princess is right beside Jason, this means he’s being fully supported by The Empire.”“The four top families who belonged to The Empire won’t even dare go against their masters!”“The news I received said that they came to an agreement. They planned to send an astronomical check, some extremely valuable assets, and the shares they hold to Jason.”“They hope to stop Jason in his tracks with the money.”“Even though Jason said he wanted their lives, he didn’t kill them all immediately after returning. He gave them some time to reflect.”“Thus, they decided to squash the scandal six years ago with loads of money.”“Jason didn’t even take action. All he did was occupy the Leo family’s villa…”“Yet, the four top families of Hong Kong have already given up.”“The Yorks of Hong Kong are in shambles as well. There’s nothing I can do at this point.”Marcel let out a grave sigh. He did have the power to resolve the situation, but because of Jason and Que
“Why are you telling me all this?” Harvey asked, glancing at Marcel.“Do you want me to take care of this mess for you?”Marcel shook his head.“No. I’m just trying to inform you all this so you can send my wife and daughter back to Country H if anything happens.”Naturally, Marcel already had a way to deal with the situation.He told Harvey this much because Harvey had the right to know.Marcel was prepared to fight this war alone.“Don’t worry. They’ll be completely fine.”“Or rather… In Hong Kong and Las Vegas, the Clarke family, the Mendoza family, the Hamilton family, as well as the rest will all remain unscathed.”“If Jason’s only here to take revenge after making his comeback, then it doesn’t concern me.”“But if he’s trying to destroy the two cities from the face of Country H…”“His title as a God of War will end now.”Harvey was expressionless. Anyone who dared to try take advantage of Country H had better be prepared to lay down their lives,Marcel looked deep in
Queenie York tried to explain the situation while turning the steering wheel after seeing Harvey York’s dazed look on his face.“He’s kidding?” Harvey came back to his senses after he froze for a short while.“About what?”Queenie’s face was bright red but perfectly hidden under the night sky.“The things he said after. You don’t have to worry about it.“I used to think of you as my brother, then I treated you like my arch-nemesis, but now I think of you as my good friend…”Queenie felt like her words came out wrong.“That’s it…” whispered Queenie quietly.“Oh? You’re talking about me being the son-in-law?” Harvey instinctively replied.He felt utterly speechless after.“Every time they see me, they keep asking me to be their son-in-law…“Am I really good-looking?”Queenie let out a puff of air before replying quietly, “If you work in the Everblue Pub, I’m sure you’ll make a lot of money in just a single night.”Harvey leaned on the side of his seat and sighed.“Forget
After taking a deep breath, Queenie York managed to put away unnecessary thoughts for the time being before she smiled.“Now that you decided to take action, what would you like to do next?”“I’ll sit tight for now. See what happens.”Harvey York’s eyes lit up slightly before he chuckled.“Jason Leo just made a strong comeback, didn’t he?“He’s demanding everyone to kill themselves in front of him.“I do want to see if anyone’s doing as he demands.“When Jason does something again, we’ll find an opportunity to strike.“We’ll have the chance. I’m sure of it.“Of course, we’ll need to fortify our defenses in Loxus Consortium. You might be his first target, after all.”It was not Harvey’s first time facing someone like Jason.A young and unparalleled God of War like him would surely be extremely arrogant.Compared to Lucas Jean, Hector Thompson, and the others from back then, people like Jason were much harder to deal with.If the opportunity would show, Harvey would also not
“I’m sure you know that Jason Leo’s making a strong comeback, yes?”Toby Clarke did not intend to hide anything at all.“Yes, I’m aware. I also know that he’s demanding all the wealthy families in Hong Kong to kill themselves in front of him within three days,” replied Harvey calmly.“What? Are you planning to deal with this yourself?“Are you going to mobilize the Hong Kong Police Station, or are you planning to call the South Light Military instead?”Toby bitterly chuckled while shaking his head.“Jason didn’t break any laws just yet. How am I supposed to use the government’s power on him then?“Besides, he has the fourth princess of The Empire by his side. If I use the government to deal with him, many innocents will be involved…”Harvey tilted his head slightly while squinting at Toby.“So, you’re saying I should use the Dragon Palace or Longmen instead?”“No.”Answered Toby with a sigh.“To be honest, half of me still belonged to The Empire before Hong Kong was taken b
"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
