There was a hint of rage in Freddy’s eyes; as a Kshatriya, he had never been disrespected like this in his entire life.But since he was still quite the capable man, he took a deep breath to calm himself. The emotion on his face completely dissipated afterwards.He wanted to trample on the man who dared to cross him…But he knew he didn’t have to do it himself.After all, the John family was the Overlord Gang’s honored guests. Compared to Freddy’s rage, Dahlia must’ve been way more embarrassed.The John family was on the upswing as well; there was no way they could take such disrespect.It would be bad if the situation ruined the family’s reputation completely.After calming down, Freddy put on a small smile.“Interesting. That’s normal, anyway.”“The Celestial Temple has no background in Country H. It’s only natural that they look down on us.”“If that wasn’t the case, Eli and his father wouldn’t be forced to kneel in front of the hospital a few days ago.”“This country sur
Upon hearing Dahlia’s orders, one of her subordinates, named Pork Wing, took the badge with a wretched grin.Pork Wing was one of the members of the well-known Safflower Fighters. It’s said that nobody could stand in his way when he wielded his steel pipe. He had killed quite a lot of so-called experts in his day.Flutwell’s Gang of Six had tried to buy him off for a high price…But he stayed with Dahlia.He had been fighting for her sake for the past few years, and had made quite an achievement for himself.Because of this, Dahlia’s status in the family was steadily rising.Pork Wing had rarely fought since then.After all, anyone would be terrified by Dahlia’s golden badge alone.And after all that smooth sailing, Pork Wing thought he had become quite the prominent figure.He believed that he was invincible, and that he could kill whoever he wanted.Simply put, he was just a servant who was infatuated with his master’s power!Pork Wing had a bossy look on his face as he he
Harvey’s emotions remained the same as he squinted at the sight in front of him.“Right. Since you’re just someone else’s servant, let’s just cut right to the chase.”“What do you want?”Pork Wing boiled with unbridled rage.“This is Lady John’s badge, kid! She wants you to break your own arms and send the woman to Young Master Garcia, and then kneel in front of our box for ten minutes! She’ll let you off the hook after that!”“Remember! She gave you a chance since we’re in the same country!”“You better cherish it!”“If you decline, you won’t be the only one getting it!”“Your family, friends, and everyone supporting you will all pay a huge price!”Naturally, Pork Wing mistook Harvey as a young master with a strong background after seeing Harvey act all high and mighty.He even took the badge out with an arrogant look on his face.Themen in suits behind him raised their heads pridefully, patiently waiting for Harvey to beg for mercy.After all, this was the John family’s b
“Dahlia John?”Harvey finally glanced at the badge, his face calm.“Is she flaunting her wealth in front of my face now?”“I don’t need any money, though.”“Go back and tell her that this won’t be enough to command me.”“It’s not enough to phase me, either.”Pork Wing grunted and held his nose, and then took a few steps back.“How are you this calm against the John family?!” he screamed in anger.“Who the hell are you?!”“Give me your name!”Harvey remained calm and collected.“Me? I’m just a live-in son-in-law.”“I have no other hobbies except dishing out justice.”“I don’t care who you are, kid! I’m going to cripple you for injuring me!”Pork Wing was filled with unbridled rage upon hearing that Harvey was just some live-in son-in-law.He then screamed at the men in suits, saying, “Go! Get him now!”The men from the Overlord Gang and the John family pulled out their weapons and rushed toward Harvey with great ferocity.Bam, bam, bam!Rachel narrowed her eyes and too
Pork Wing pulled out his phone and dialed a number…A cold tone could be heard from the other side.“Pork Wing? Why are you still not back yet?”Pork Wing trembled when he met Harvey’s eyes.“I’m no match for this man, Lady John.”“He said that your badge won’t hold him!”“I’m completely beaten!”After a moment of dead silence, Dahlia said calmly, “I thought I won’t have much to do tonight.”“Looks like someone here’s bringing me some fun.”“Clear out the place.”“We’ll play if he wants to play.”…Ten minutes later, every single customer of the bar was chased out.People from the Overlord Gang showed up soon after, completely surrounding the entire place.Even the streets were filled with tall and strong men.The warm mood inside the bar was replaced by a cold and distant feeling.The sound of high heels clacking steadily could be heard reverberating around the bar, and a hint of murderous intent was felt.When Harvey told someone to get him more tea, the door was kic
“Not bad. You’re pretty interesting.”Dahlia showed a beautiful faint smile upon seeing Harvey’s bossy look.She squinted her long and narrow eyes as she sized up Harvey.“So you’re saying you’re crossing me?”“That you want to go against me?”Naturally, the woman was quite arrogant, thinking that she had a higher status compared to everyone else in her family.“Go against you?”Harvey calmly picked up his teacup.“You have no right to that.”“I have no right?”Dahlia froze. Then, she burst into angry laughter. “Impressive! Really impressive.”“It’s been a while since I’ve seen someone like this!”“How dare you act so high and mighty in front of me?”“Have you thought about it?”“Have you considered it?”“Just how dire of a consequence it’d be if you say things like this?!”“Right. Just so you know, the entire bar was cleared out.”“There are a total of fifty experts from the John family and a hundred more from the Overlord Gang.”“Of course, we have someone from th
Footsteps could be heard from outside. Sienna walked in, her face pale. A lot of people who seemed like her bodyguards followed behind her. They were all glaring down at every single one of Dahlia’s subordinates.Freddy’s eyes lit up as soon as Sienna showed up.“I knew you wouldn’t leave me, baby! I ate three whole pills just for you! You’ll have a lot of fun tonight…”Slap!Sienna instantly slapped Freddy across the face before he could even finish his sentence. He couldn’t help but stumble backwards.He didn’t fight back. All he did was touch his cheek, a mystified look on his face.Upon closer inspection, Freddy’s breathing had grown even more rapid; as if he couldn’t wait any longer.Dahlia sized up Sienna for a moment.“So you’re Colton Torres’s goddaughter?” she asked after a brief moment of hesitation. This identity was used outside of Flutwell.If everyone knew that Sienna was actually the princess of the Wright family, a lot of people would be eyeing her.Even s
Dahlia knew Sienna had an extraordinary background…But she had no intention of giving up.After all, outsiders were no match against local powerhouses.The Torres family seemed to have a strong background to the rest, but they were nothing to the John family.After all, Colton lost against the head of the Golden Palace when they fought for the throne before. He was getting close to his death as well because of his past injury.Dahlia wasn’t about to be apologetic.She only felt that she would gain nothing by escalating the situation further, just because of a woman with a bit of authority. Freddy wasn’t showing any fear either; all he did was look at Sienna perversely.Naturally, he was still quite interested in her.Harvey could see an elderly person in a black robe standing behind Freddy. The person seemed quite inconspicuous, but it was clear that this was no one ordinary. Most likely, it was a Yoga expert from India.“I don’t need your apology.”“Nor do I need your mo
"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
