Lilian Yates regained her composure and instantly added, “Mandy, how many times have I said this? You can’t waste money like that if you do have some! You should know clearly where the money came from as well!”“If it’s borrowed, you must let Harvey sign the agreement stating he would pay the loan by himself, and that it has nothing to do with us!”At Lilian’s words, Autumn Reyes and her family’s faces brightened up.‘Borrowing money to pretend you’re rich. Let’s see how you’re going to pay it back later on!’Mandy threw an odd look at Harvey.She didn’t know where Harvey’s money came from, but she didn’t believe that he borrowed it.After all, money wasn’t something that fell off the sky! It’s impossible for a person to loan another an amount as big as one million and a half!Even if Harvey did borrow the money, he would need time for that as well. Yet he never made any calls before. Mandy replied slowly, all the while holding back her curiosity. “Mom, Auntie Reyes, I never i
Originally, based on what kind of person Harvey was, he would definitely make Amelia fulfil her promise.But now that Mandy Zimmer told him to let the matter go, then he would let it go. In the end, it was just a small matter.“Don’t want to go shopping anymore. Let’s head home!’Amelia’s face was dark, her expression as hard as steel. She didn’t even want to look at Harvey and Mandy, and turned to leave begrudgingly.Autumn sneered and said, “Mandy, your husband doesn’t have any manners. If you still wish to be cousins with us, you better leave him as soon as possible!”With that, she left as well.Felix Howard wanted to say something, but at seeing how calm and composed Harvey York was, he couldn’t speak.Everything Harvey did today made Felix feel that Harvey certainly wasn’t someone ordinary, but Felix still couldn’t guess how extraordinary Harvey could be.Unless Felix was certain of Harvey’s status, he didn’t want to offend Harvey any longer.Soon, he left too.Only aft
“What should we do, then?” Simon Zimmer frowned.“What about it?” Autumn Reyes’s face was cold. “Of course, we’re doing it according to the plan!” “Felix, have you invited that man here?” Amelia said. “It’s all on you tonight. You must do a good job!” Initially, Felix had quite a bit of fear towards Harvey.However, after knowing how Harvey had gotten his money, anger filled his heart.It was simply embarrassing for a big shot like him to be intimidated by a live-in son-in-law!Felix said coldly, “Mother, Amelia, don’t worry.”“Leave the rest to me!”“Since that live-in son-in-law likes pretending so much, I’ll take him to a high-end occasion!”“I’ve already asked that man to come. I’ve arranged everything!”“I can guarantee that after today, he’ll never show up in front of us again!”Amelia gritted her teeth and added, “That’s not enough! I want him to kneel and grovel! Remember to take a video for me!”***The two families did have dinner together today due to their un
Mandy was calm. “Manager Robbins, right?”“Thank you for your kindness. But our company has no financial problems for the time being. We’ll definitely come to you when we need it.”Despite saying so, she didn’t even glance at Stanley Robbins.She was not stupid. She could see the greed in his eyes.Felix Howard actually brought him and introduced such a person to her. He was obviously trying to get in between her and Harvey, and that infuriated her.However, Felix didn’t catch up on Mandy’s anger. He smiled and said, “Sister Mandy, Manager Robbins is young and promising. He’s extremely talented, too. Many wealthy women in Buckwood would like to meet him, but they never had the chance!”“It’s an honor for you to meet Manager Robbins tonight. How about you have a drink with him? Just do me this favor!”Mandy’s face was cold. “I’m having dinner with my husband now. I’m afraid I don’t have the time.”“If there’s nothing else, both of you please go ahead.”To speak to such an exten
Felix sneered at Harvey’s words. He disdained talking to people like Harvey.He flashed Mandy a severe gaze and said, “Sister Mandy, just listen to my honest words!”“Your live-in husband is destined to accomplish nothing!”“If I were you, I’d kick him out of the house! Only then, you could start over!”“I’m saying this for your own good. Everyone else is making fun of you!”Felix feigned a worried look, as though he was truly thinking for Mandy.Stanley Robbins, who by his side, laughed. “Yes, Miss Zimmer. You are so good, and you have a successful career. You’re young and beautiful. How can such a man be worthy of you?”“You should consider other truly excellent men. Not only can they take care of you, but they can also boost your career!”Stanley puffed his chest after saying this. His meaning was very simple. He was indicating that the truly outstanding man was him.These two people came here well prepared, and their presence here was not a coincidence at all.Mandy looke
“What’s going on? Mandy Zimmer looked puzzled. She wondered why Felix would suddenly invite Harvey somewhere.“He asked me to go to a party with him and meet some people from Sky Corporation. I’ll go and see. Maybe it’ll be helpful to your future development.” Harvey said nonchalantly.“Then you should go and come back quickly.”Mandy was a little worried, but she had no reason to refuse Harvey since he wanted to go and get to know more people.***Half an hour later.In a private club on the beach of Half Moon Bay.More than a dozen so-called senior executives of Sky Corporation were gathered here.Many of these people were the Yorks’ former department managers.When Harvey created the hundred billion group in the past, they were already working there.Later, due to the internal strife among the Yorks, Harvey’s die-hard loyalists dispersed and went away.However, these people did not leave. Instead, they immediately joined Quinton York and others. They even provided informa
“He’s here!”Felix suddenly exclaimed, grinning all over.Harvey was walking past the entrance of the private club with his hands folded behind his back. He was calm and indifferent.A powerful, indescribable surrounded him as he strode over.The sensation was momentary, but it still puzzled the executives present.“Felix…is this the loser you were talking about?”One of them, who was a little uncertain, asked hesitantly.He found this man somewhat familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen such a person.In truth, back then they were all nobodies. They never had the chance to meet Harvey in person.However, they might have seen Harvey’s figure from a distance during some occasions. So, they had a small impression of him.Nonetheless, it was just a tiny amount.Felix grinned. “Yes, it’s him! Do as you please.” He then stepped forward to greet Harvey. “Harvey! Come, let me introduce you to everyone.”“This is Harvey York, the live-in son-in-law of the Zimmer fami
The executives regained their bearings when they heard Felix’s words.All of them burst into laughter, clutching their stomachs. They had never met anyone who could brag to such an extent before.Rosanne Barr was the first to crack a smile. “Do you know who Prince York is? He’s the number one person in South Light right now!”“Even the first-in-command in South Light must be respectful in front of him!”“How could a man like him become a live-in son-in-law?!”“How could he appear here, of all places?!”“Can you please stop being so funny?”Brody Jenner also taunted Harvey. “During our time in the hundred-billion group, we have already been working under York Enterprise. Later when the Famous Four of the Yorks took over, we were also in high positions. So now, Prince York has to take us seriously too!”“Do you think that knowledgeable and experienced people like us would be fooled by you?”“Nowadays, even trash dares to pretend to be a CEO?”“Our Prince York is too low-key. He
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
Daichi had already checked the Chapter of Ascension earlier back in Grand City, but he could not leave with it. Only after Harvey gave his green light would Rachel pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi.Harvey gave Kenta a look and then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "Pass him the thing and escort him out."Harvey was straight-faced when he said that. While he had read it through, he did not believe that the Chapter of Ascension would really allow one to reach Unity between Nature and Man. It was not that Harvey was underestimating Hale, but as a martial art elite himself, he knew very well that there were many things required an epiphany to comprehend, and not just some so-called Chapter of Ascension.If that thing was really as effective as people said, Hale would not be hunted for more than a decade. In no time, a few hours went by. Kenta picked up his phone and after listening to the other side, he smiled. "You really are an honest man. Working with you is a very pl
Kenta continued to speak to Harvey in a chatty manner. "Everyone here can see how powerful you are. Unless we can kill you without any doubt, we won't be able to survive your revenge later on. That's why… You can trust me."Harvey looked at Kenta coldly. "Of course you won't be able to kill me. However, I need to make sure Mandy and my men are safe. That's why there's no need to waste your breath here."All you need to do is to give me an answer. Will you come with us? Before we leave, someone will let Daichi examine the Chapter of Ascension. Once we've left Sky Plane for about an hour, that person will then pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi. Don't worry. I'm a man of my word."Kenta smiled. "We'll believe you if you're willing to personally guarantee it. It's decided then. I believe we can work well together. Now, let's go."As soon as Kenta finished saying that, he waved his hand. All the Islander elites stepped aside despite the weapons in their hands. This was also a way
Slap!Harvey gave another slap at Jun's face."So what if I did? I'll kill you if you waste anymore of my time!" Before Jun could even finish, Harvey had already grabbed him by his neck. Onmyojis are physically weaker than most, so Jun could not fight back at all while being held like that."You fool! Release Mr. Jun!""Mr. Jun is one of the best among the onmyojis in Sky Plane!""Don't show any disrespect!"All the Islanders roared when they saw Harvey disrespected Jun so much. They quickly drew their long swords and pointed them at Harvey. Dozens of people also started to approach Mandy. Clarion and the others also reacted quickly, protecting Mandy behind them. The atmosphere between both sides became extremely tense in just one moment.Harvey's hand never released Jun's throat as he calmly turned to Kenta and said, "Alright, Kenta. Let's continue the discussion of our three conditions. The first condition is that you must escort us out of Sky Plane and guarantee our safety. A
"You really are very impressive, Kenta. It's quite rare for someone like you to exist within the Fujihara family," commented Harvey after he took a deep breath and loosened his fists. "I have a feeling that someone like you will eventually climb up the ladder. Who knows, you might be the next Island Nation's Emperor."All the Islanders around them had strange looks after they heard what Harvey had just said. Even Kenta's eyes twitched before he replied helplessly, "You're joking, Mr. Harvey. I'm just someone from the branch family. The emperor's throne has always belonged to the main branch and the main branch alone."Then, Kenta changed the subject after that. "Since it sounds like you have a change of mind, does it mean you're willing to fulfill your part of the promise?"Harvey calmly said, "Not exactly. This is just a simple trade, and so is the trade's content. I'll give you the Chapter of Ascension, and you promise three things. That's reasonable…"At this point, the mysterio
Looking at Kenta's expression, Harvey's eyes narrowed. The Islanders could become fanatical most of the time, and he knew that very well from how Kenta was presenting himself. Their people believed in collectivism to the point of radicalism. One single word from their superiors was enough to make them sacrifice themselves and fight to the bitter end, not to mention if they were convinced if it was for the greater good.In short, if he really refused to give them the Chapter of Ascension, then Kenta would really give up on this pretentious act and detonate the Emerald Jewel. However, while the Emerald Jewel could injure him, he knew it could not kill him. But, Mandy and the others were another case entirely. If the Emerald Jewel was detonated, none of them could escape.Harvey frowned, realizing that the situation was getting more complicated."Mr. Harvey, you understand that the Chapter of Ascension isn't worth the lives of the people here. Not to mention if you do manage to obtain
"Firstly, this is Sky Plane. This is the Sacred Martial Art Training Ground for the Island Nation. Based on the promise made between each of the Sacred Training Grounds, we can consider one as hostile if they enter without an invitation. That's why when you barged into this place without invitation and were suspected of murdering the citizens of Sky Plane, we have the right to stop you from leaving the place and investigate."Secondly, Mr. Sora is a citizen of Sky Plane. It is within reason for us to protect his safety. Thirdly, Grand City will need to give us a reasonable explanation for this."And finally, if any of you refuse to cooperate, then according to the laws of Sky Plane's Admin Board, we have the right to kill all the intruders!" said Kenta with a wide grin."I know you're extremely strong, Mr. Harvey. So strong that you're the best here. But the question is, what's the use if you have personal strength in this situation? Even if you can defeat a hundred, can you defeat
"Mr. Harvey, I know how powerful you are and how invincible you can be. I also have a lot of respect toward you and wouldn't dare show you any insolence," explained Kenta with a harmonious smile. "However, I need to negotiate with you as it's part of my duties. I hope you can calm down so we can talk."First of all, Ms. Mandy is alright. While it looks like you have to come and save her, you need to trust me when I said if it's not for our effort, the men from Origin Sword Style wouldn't have waited until today. With their powers, if we didn't try and stop them with everything we can, Ms. Mandy would be a corpse now. You have to give credit where credit is due, don't you think? I believe someone of your caliber won't deny it, right?"Secondly, I can swear by the name of the Ruling Royal Family that everything that happened today had nothing to do with us. Since we have decided to make a trade with you, we won't stab you in the back. Our conscience is clear when it's regarding this."
