After dealing with the Hunt family’s incident, Harvey went back to the five-star hotel.Aside from asking Yvonne to send him information about the Country H Commercial Group, he also asked for detailed documents about the coming martial arts tournament as well.Normally speaking, Harvey would be notified first about such a massive event, but he didn’t know about it until recently. It didn’t seem like anyone planned to contact him in the first place.He wanted to see what the Martial Arts Alliance was doing.After reading all the documents, Harvey smiled faintly. The tournament wasn’t as simple as he thought.Other than choosing the champion of the younger generation’s martial artists, there was a more important reason.They wanted to get a different representative!To the Martial Arts Alliance, Harvey was simply an outsider.Because of his immense reputation before, the higher-ups of the Martial Arts Alliance and the sacred martial arts training grounds had no choice but to a
Four o’clock in the afternoon.A Porsche Panamera was parked in front of the five-star hotel. That said, a car of that caliber wasn’t all that impressive either compared to the hotel.The window rolled down. A young woman in her twenties was seen in the car with casual clothes and a pair of sunglasses.A lot of her face was covered by the big sunglasses, but her figure and temperament were quite extraordinary. Along with the nice car, she had attracted quite a lot of attention around her.The woman casually raised a banner with Harvey’s name on it.Harvey didn’t like such a high-profile way of doing things, but he only let out a single sigh to voice his discontent.“Hello.”The woman took off her sunglasses, revealing the shock on her beautiful face. She sized up Harvey for a moment, then glanced at the Rolex on his wrist.“You’re Harvey? The youngest member of the council?”“That’s me.” Harvey nodded. “You’re my personal secretary—Zhuri Vaus?”Harvey figured out the secretar
The car was dead silent the entire trip. The Porche came to a quiet path approximately an hour after driving down the viaduct.A manor thousands of acres big was found at the end of the path.Every single luxury car could be seen with gorgeous-looking people.This was the city suburbs, but every single corner was perfectly decorated with luxury and wealth in mind.Harvey York squinted momentarily before figuring something out. Other than being a simple restaurant and a banquet venue…This was also a resort that was established for people from the upper social circle.After all, ordinary people would not require a racecourse and golf courts.It was safe to say that only the top-rated people in Wolsing could spend their money here.After seeing Harvey squinting at the sight before him, Zhuri Vaus thought Harvey was just a country bumpkin who was severely culture shocked.She scoffed before speaking in a very prideful tone.“This is the Royal Manor, an extremely high-class estab
Harvey casually walked a few circles around the hall when he saw a variety of exquisite pastries and fruits on long tables.An enchanting champagne tower was also shimmering under the lights.A dozen chefs with white hats ran around the open kitchen before Western food dishes were served in rapid succession.Other than that, all sorts of entertainment facilities were also seen there, including cards and pool tables.The waiters were tall and had beautiful features, enticing the urges of everyone around them.It was clear that the place was made purely for entertainment.A dozen women with jewelry that would cost a fortune to any ordinary people were taking pictures together.Handsome men in suits held their champagnes and wine while they chitchatted eloquently.Some princes and young masters even played cards and worked out with their female companions.It was safe to say the luxurious place felt quite serene. Anyone coming here would surely feel right at home.Of course, onl
In Cason Lee’s mind…A young master capable of fighting was just icing on the cake.But so what if a poor sob could fight?Not only would that be completely useless, but they would also get themselves into unnecessary trouble!After all, no matter how good at fighting someone could be, the country simply had machines that could do that even better!There would be no chance even to throw a single punch!He planned to find an excuse to get Harvey kicked out before dealing with him.Other than Kylan Hunt, many more people were interested in Xynthia Zimmer.That said, it would be hard to drag her around to accompany guests with Harvey’s support.“Why do I have to explain myself to you?Harvey casually took a sip of his champagne.“Is this your property? Or do you belong to the organization hosting the banquet?“If not, then what right do you have even to question me?“You must be quite the nosy bastard, aren’t you?”“You…”Cason’s eyes twitched when he was instantly stumped.
“You don’t look like you’re supposed to be here, young man,” said the man while standing before Harvey York.“I’m afraid I’ll have to see your invitation, or you’ll have to tell me who brought you here in the first place.”Harvey swirled his glass around.“I have to prove my right to come in a rundown place like this?“Sure, but go find someone else to prove it first.”“You need to understand your situation here,” exclaimed the captain coldly.“Ms. Journi already has the entire place booked.“Without her invitation, nobody else is allowed here.“Especially those who only came to get free food and drinks.“If I were you, I’d be smart enough to leave after having enough food in my stomach.”The captain was disdainful. He was not showing Harvey any respect, as if he knew his speculation was spot on.Harvey put his glass down before briefly wiping his fingers.“And what makes you think I’m only here for the free food?“Everyone here owns a business under the Country H Commerci
“Whether I belong in the circle…“Or whether the circle’s worthy enough to have me…“Is none of your business, right?”“You’re right about that.The captain let out another cold chuckle.“That said, I have obligations to throw you out since you’re an outlier.“Of course, I’ll properly compensate for your damages if you can prove your identity.“But then, can you even do that?”Harvey seemed curious.“What are you going to do?“Grovel before me?”“You want me to grovel?” asked the captain in a gloomy voice.“Let me warn you, kid…“You shouldn’t talk this big in a place like Wolsing.“You want me, Frank Zummo, to grovel?“Who do you think you are? The chairman?“Of course, if you’re actually the chairman…“I’ll even call you ‘Daddy’ after groveling before you!”Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm across Frank’s face.His actions were quick and deadly, completely catching Frank off guard.Everyone around quickly turned over after hearing the loud slap.“Your word
Zhuri Vaus’ eyes twitched when she briefly hesitated.“He’s right. He’s the next chairman of the organization.”“Huh?!”“What?!”“He’s the next chairman?!”“Did I hear things wrong?!”“Probably not. Zhuri’s the chairman’s personal secretary. She wouldn’t joke about things like this!”“So, you’re saying that the young man’s been playing dumb the entire time?!”Many people were filled with fear and disbelief.Even Cason Lee’s jaw had completely dropped then.Frank Zummo was filled with surprise before he thought of something.“Ms. Zhuri, this isn’t the person who was accidentally chosen as the new chairman now, is it?“The same person without any background who got chosen because the other council members didn’t want to vote for the opposition?Zhuri nodded.“Pfft!Frank smiled gloomily before tapping on Harvey York’s shoulder, forgetting the fact that he was already slapped in the face.“So, you’re the legendary Sir York!“I apologize for everything I said!“You’re als
"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
