Not long after, Mandy’s car, a Maybach, drove out of the garage.The car was the property of Hearthstone Corporation in the past. The car hadn’t been driven a lot since it belonged to the CEO of the company, so it looked like it was brand-new.Harvey sat in the back while quietly admiring the car.Mandy handed Harvey some breakfast after seeing him in the car before telling the driver to drive.“You already got in contact with Young Master Bauer?”“Is he going to give the money back or not?”Mandy sighed.“The three young masters are all prominent figures of Flutwell.”“The eldest Young Master Bauer is the best out of the three. He’s also quite isolated from the world.”“Normally speaking, it would be hard to see him even on TV, let alone actually meeting him.”“It’s said he has eighteen places he’d randomly choose to live in every single day.”“He wouldn’t even wear the clothes he’s already worn the day before.”“All this just to make sure he wouldn’t be tracked.”Harvey
Harvey chuckled.“Judging from what you said, she should’ve been a superstar by now, right?”Mandy sighed.“The entertainment industry is darker than we imagine. Elanor refused to sleep with one of the bosses, and so was permanently put in limbo. She was even assigned roles as a toilet cleaner or the victim of r*pe.”“To her, that is utterly humiliating.”“She met Jeff coincidentally and became one of his women. After that, she refrained from showing herself.”“That’s it?” Harvey asked, curious.“If Elanor is only willing to be one of Jeff’s mistresses, does she even have the right to negotiate with us?”“After being with Jeff, she used his authority to rip the director to shreds. Even his entire family was dragged down with him.”“The boss’ ancestors were dragged out from their graves and burned to a crisp!”Mandy was filled with shock. She didn’t understand how a potential superstar could have ended up in such a way.Harvey took a deep breath.“She’s ruthless!”“Jeff mus
Mandy pondered the situation for a moment.“I thought about it.”“We asked her out three times before she agreed to meet at her bullring.”“Number one: she doesn’t want to waste more time just to see us.”“Number two: she wants to flaunt her strength.”“Number three: maybe she wants to use the opportunity to see if I’m worthy of negotiating with her.”Harvey smiled calmly.“Interesting woman. No wonder she can be Jeff’s fifth mistress even without any background or powerful identity.”Realizing that the woman was probably quite extraordinary, Harvey sent a text from his phone.After all, it wouldn’t hurt to take any precautions.An hour later, the car arrived at the outskirts of Flutwell. A place that looked like a colosseum could be seen.The place was extremely spacious. The building itself looked like it was modeled after an antique.The east, south, and west sides had stands that were ten feet tall. The bull’s entrance was on the north.Wetlands similar to a football f
Compared to the elegance common to wealthy ladies, Elanor was different.She radiated unspeakable confidence.She was so calm and collected that people around her would believe in her ability to solve any problem.Without question, the woman was Jeff’s fifth mistress.An arrogant-looking man was standing right beside said mistress.The man would occasionally blow a puff of smoke, his face bearing an extremely bossy look.He was Elanor’s personal bodyguard. His status must’ve been quite high as well. He wouldn’t act so arrogantly if that wasn’t the case.Mandy gave Harvey a look, telling him to not be reckless before she walked toward Elanor with a smile.“Good morning, CEO Stanton,” she said with her right hand stretched out.“I’m Mandy from Hearthstone Corporation.”“I’m here to talk about the debt with you today.”“I hope you’ll have time for that.”The people around shot snide glances at Mandy after hearing her words.‘She’s asking Elanor for money?’‘She’s basically a
The people there had faint smiles on their faces.Naturally, this wasn’t their first time seeing such a thing happening.Elanor had been sucking people dry using this trick for a very long time.No matter which bull Mandy picked, the bull would always die in an accident.It would either be poisoned to death, or die in a fatal injury.Since this was Elanor’s turf, she always had the final say in the outcome!“You’re crossing the line, CEO Stanton.”Mandy frowned. She wasn’t an innocent woman who just got into the business world anymore…She knew that if she actually took the gamble with Elanor, she would most likely lose. Or rather, she would lose without a doubt.Perhaps this entire scene was set up by Elanor…Eleanor wanted Mandy to lose a hundred and fifty million dollars in an instant.“Crossing the line?” Elanor snapped coldly. She shrugged, her lips curled into a faint smile.“Nobody dares to ask me for money in Flutwell, or even the entire southwest region of Country
The crowd was shocked.Everyone was looking at Harvey with disbelief. Nobody expected that Harvey would actually do something like this to deal with Elanor’s trick.In fact, only Elanor would usually do this to the others.It was the first time that she was getting trampled on like this.Mandy froze. She found herself getting a little sluggish as well.She didn’t think that Harvey would do something so simple yet so rash.That said, she couldn’t change anything at this point.Even if she was worried sick, she could only pretend to be calm while standing behind Harvey.“You…”“You b*stard! How dare you shoot the bull?!”“The Fifth Mistress’ bull at that!”“Can you even bear the consequences of doing such a thing?!”The crowd was in an uproar. Some of them flipped the coffee tables in front of them before bouncing off the couch.A few bodyguards pulled out their firearms and took off the safeties before pointing them fiercely right at Harvey.The other guards got word of wh
“No matter who you are, here, you’re only allowed to bow!”“A powerful man who falls is more inferior compared to the common folk!” Elanor said with a haughty grin.“Only a powerful man would dare challenge someone like you, after all,” Harvey replied calmly.Everyone was shocked after hearing Harvey’s words.His tone and actions weren’t just disrespecting Elanor—he was trampling all over her!Elanor had a profound look as she stared at Harvey. Then, she took a sip of her Cappuccino.“Since you’re so dominant, let’s not talk about who’s stronger for now.”“Let’s talk about fairness instead.”“Since this is a gamble, we’ll at least have to talk about that, right?”“The match hasn’t even been decided yet, and you already shot the yellow bull dead. You’re deliberately breaking the rules here!”“You think you can please the crowd by doing something like that?”“Please the crowd?”Harvey chuckled. He strode forward with his arms crossed.“Is pleasing the crowd really that impor
Harvey ignored the man and smiled at Elanor instead.“Looks like you’re not a good enough teacher, CEO Stanton.”“Your dog’s barking up a storm while the master’s talking.”“This doesn’t seem high-class at all. In fact, this feels pretty backwards, don’t you think?”“What did you say, you b*stard?!”“Say it again one more time!”The pompous-looking man glared fiercely at Harvey, an unspeakable aura seeping out of him.“My hearing isn't that good! Say it again, why don’t you?”“If I hear something I don’t like, I’ll strangle you till you die!”The man rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Harvey a lesson he’d never forget.“Go look for a doctor, then,” Harvey replied calmly.“You have no right to demand that I repeat my words.”Fwoosh!The man was instantly agitated; he took a step forward and threw a punch right at Harvey’s face.The punch was quite terrifying. It was enough to make people think that he was an expert.Everyone could already imagine what would happen to H
