“People should know their limits. You should know that you have no worth in the elite circles!“You have no right to be with someone like Xynthia!“You should be begging for food, not causing trouble here!“As Xynthia’s friend, I have to warn you!“Leave! Stay away from her! You’re not worthy to be with her, after all!“She’s a goddess! You’re a nobody!“You two are from two different worlds!”Ensley seemed to use eloquent words while she deliberately insulted Harvey. It made her seem a lot more high and mighty.“Me being a kept man isn’t a part of your business now, is it?“The same goes for my relationship with Xynthia, right?“You’re a bit of a busybody, aren’t you?” Harvey shot back. Ensley’s face darkened instantly.“I’m doing this for your own good!“Who do you think you are?! What right do you have to talk to me like this?“Let me be honest with you!“You’re just a live-in son-in-law—a kept man who got kicked out of his family!“Don’t think of getting together w
“How dare you disrespect me like this? You think you’re some sort of hotshot, huh?!“You’ll know just how bad it is to get on Young Master Chiba’s bad side soon enough!“A mere man from Country H has no chance against him!“Hmph!”Ensley gritted her teeth as she cursed Harvey in secret.The three arrived at the cabin.The place was quite spacious; it was about a thousand square feet, furnished with elegant Italian leather couches. It was an extravagant sight.There were already several young people sitting together there. All of them were handsome and beautiful, dressed in luxurious tailor-made outfits. Normal people wouldn’t have the chance to experience the same luxury. These people were the symbol of wealth, luxury, and status.When Xynthia and Ensley showed up, they immediately stopped playing their dice. Their eyes lit up instantly, and their gazes were feral.Many princes and young masters had been eyeing Xynthia Zimmer, the pure and innocent goddess in the entertainme
Chiba’s breathing grew heavy. His eyes were unnaturally bright, making him seem a little feral.He loved young and inexperienced women like Xynthia the most.Not only was she top-tier goods for him, but she also wouldn’t know that he could only last a short time. Without any man to compare, he would look amazing to her.At that moment, Chiba was blatantly revealing his urge to pounce on Xynthia. He was prepared to swallow her whole.He found Blaine’s meeting gift quite satisfying. It would be a breeze for him to work together with Blaine.“Hello, Young Master Chiba.”Xynthia frowned, and nodded to him in greeting.“Let me introduce you,” she said, holding Harvey’s hand. “This is my boyfriend, Harvey.”She had already been planning to use Harvey as a shield, and was clearly quite adept at it.“Harvey York?”Chiba’s eyes turned cold. “The goddess’s boyfriend?! You’re pretty lucky, kid!”Despite that, his tone was ice. “Don’t be upset, Young Master Chiba. Xynthia’s just jok
Everyone laughed even harder after hearing Xynthia’s words.They were sure she was either insane, or that her acting was completely horrible. After all, what right did a man like Harvey have to be her boyfriend?What a joke!“Enough of this nonsense, Xynthia! A nobody like him has no right to be with a goddess like you! That just doesn’t make sense!” Chiba exclaimed arrogantly.“He’s not worthy of being with anyone!“Even ordinary waiters would probably look down on a man like this!“Hahaha!”Everyone laughed till tears were flowing out of their eyes.‘This is just too much fun! Thank goodness there’s a clown here to liven up the banquet!’Smooch!Right there and then, Harvey kissed Xynthia on the cheek. Then, he looked curiously at Chiba. “Young Master Chiba, right? You have no say in our relationship, and neither do they. Only we do,” he said. Harvey’s words and actions…They made Chiba’s eyes twitch instinctively. His gaze turned murderous. Who was he?He was an ar
“Let me tell you something! People from Country H have no right to compete against us nobles from the Island Nations!”The man was clearly from Country H as well, but he was glaring at Harvey so arrogantly, it was as if he was working for the Islanders.“Even if you have 1.3 billion dollars, you still wouldn’t have the right to challenge Young Master Chiba!“Hell, you don’t look like you have fifteen dollars on you, let alone 1.3 billion!“What are you thinking?“Xynthia’s a pure goddess! Do you think you’re worthy to have her?“Can you feed her?“Can you protect her?”The young man looked as if he was siding with reason. It was as if this was his only way to show his worth to his master.The rest were naturally there to suck up to Chiba.They began to laugh their stomachs off. The young man was right, after all.Since ancient times, beautiful women all belonged to the rich and powerful; poor sobs had no right to have them. Even if they ended up getting lucky, disastrous t
“A insignificant shop owner like you has 1.3 billion dollars?“If that’s actually the case, everyone in Golden Sands would’ve been billionaires by now!“Hahaha!”Chiba and the others laughed their stomachs off, as they disdainfully glared at Harvey.‘A geomancy expert!’‘He’s just a lackey for the rich and powerful!’‘If he wants to survive, he’ll have to lick the boots of his betters!’These people had never heard of such an impressive geomancy expert.If that were the case, Harvey would’ve been Golden Sands’ top expert—no, maybe even the entire country. They would’ve known him with just a single glance.Chiba was especially disgusted as he glared at Harvey.‘Does he think he’s from the royal families? 1.3 billion dollars? It’s still daylight! Is he dreaming already?’“Hold on, everyone. I just remembered that there are a few well-known onmyojis with that kind of money!”The young man pretended to remember something to butter up Harvey.“Looks like Sir York here is on par
Harvey waved his hand, signaling for Xynthia to keep quiet. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Chiba.“What’s the goal of the convention, anyway?“If it’s just for the sake of showing off, I’m afraid that the things from the Island Nations are completely unworthy.“If you’re using the opportunity to take away my country’s priceless relics, then I’m sorry, but I have to decline.“Not just that, I’ll even contact the government of Golden Sands to stop this from happening.“You’ll have to send a plan to me tomorrow.“I’ll take a look at it before deciding how to solve the problem.”Harvey’s expression was grim.If it was just any ordinary convention, he wouldn’t be bothered to care. But if the Islanders had other motives, then he’d promptly take action.“You want a plan? To see how you can solve the problem?”The people couldn’t help laughing again. They were looking at Harvey as if he was a total idiot.‘Young Master Chiba’s only saying that to ridicule him!‘And what happene
Chiba and the others went slack with shock. They looked at Harvey, speechless. The smile on their faces froze instantly, replaced by a look of shock.Nobody could believe that Harvey would actually be invited to be the government’s chief consultant for geomancy arts.Xynthia was stunned as well. She didn’t think that Harvey was so impressive, to the point where Eliel looked up to him.Harvey froze. He didn’t know that Eliel would actually talk about this on the phone. He thought about the situation for a moment. “This feels a little rushed. Let me think about this for now…”“Of course! We won’t force you if you don’t think that you’re a good fit. But if you want to, just give us a call anytime.”Eliel chuckled, then hung up.Chiba and the others looked ugly, at a loss for words.Ensley questioned Harvey immediately.“Heh, heh, heh! The first-in-command called you?“Do you think I’d believe such a thing?“Do you really think you’re that impressive? We don’t even know who exa
"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
