Puppet?!Marionette?!Although Harvey York’s words were very calm…It was like thunder striking the ground in the ears of the Yorks.At this moment, Quinton York unconsciously glanced sideways at Grandma York.After that, he said solemnly, “Harvey, at this point, you can stop quibbling!”“It was your honor that Grandma York chose you back then, but you have repeatedly disobeyed her!”“That’s why you have to face the consequences of your actions!”“All of this is your responsibility, you can’t solely blame Grandma York!”“At this time, the thing that you are obliged to do right now is kneeling and expressing remorse!”“Remorse?”Harvey laughed.“Why should I?”“Quinton York, are you really stupid, or are you just pretending to be stupid?”“Haven’t you understood it by now?”“If she truly favors you, you should have been Prince York by now and not only the leader of the Famous Four of the Yorks!”“The reason for creating the Famous Four is simply because she is afraid of
Soon, a figure came out among those black-suited thugs under the gazes of the Yorks.Tyson Woods.Tyson looked evil and terrifying at this moment.He quickly walked toward Harvey York’s side respectfully.Together with Ethan Hunt, the two of them protected Harvey from both sides, one on the left and one on the right.However, he was a newcomer on the streets of Buckwood. Hence, the members of the Yorks were currently very unfamiliar with him.“It’s a pity that Wayne isn’t here…” Yonathan York slightly gritted his teeth at this moment.Wayne York was the most familiar with the matters on the streets. Unfortunately, he was still in a coma.However, Quinton York took a step forward and looked at Tyson carefully. He then said indifferently after a while, “If I remember correctly, you’re the newcomer on the streets of Buckwood, Tyson Woods, right?”Tyson Woods glanced at Harvey. He only grinned and said after seeing that Harvey did not say anything, “My greetings to Second Young
“Elder John…”Harvey slightly frowned. However, he stood up this time.“Do you also want to intervene with the affairs of the Yorks?”“I don’t dare to do that. Who would dare to intervene with the affairs of the Yorks, the top family in South Light?” John Gotti said indifferently.“It’s a pity that you’re no longer Prince York from three years ago.”“Making a move against you also doesn’t defy Senior York’s will.”“I owed Elder York a favor back then. I need to fight for the Yorks three times, and this was the last time…”The members of the Yorks in the scene laughed after listening to John’s words.John Gotti, the true ruler of the streets!This person was certainly a figure of ancestral level!This was because many rules on the streets were established by him.He had handled many complicated matters for both the officials and the military.There was even a saying in South Light that John Gotti was the first-in-command in the streets of South Light.Sure enough, John Gott
Members of the Yorks were all looking at each other.Everyone’s gazes fell on Harvey York moments after.He was still able to remain calm in such a situation. Could it be that he specifically invited this person here?Soon, the Audi A6 with plate number 00001 stopped.The driver quickly got out of the car, scurried to the rear left of the Audi, and opened the car door.From the back seat, a vivacious middle-aged man in a Mandarin suit stepped out slowly.His face was a bit on the slimmer side and he looked like any ordinary old man.However, he exuded a kind of temperament “Who else but me, I am the king” the moment he lifted his head.“The first-in-command of South Light, Sheldon Xavier!”John Gotti’s expression was irregular when he muttered this name.He and Sheldon Xavier, one was the king of the officials, the other was the king of the streets.Both of them always had a tacit understanding, which was they would never meet each other since there was a saying “Two kings w
Everyone suddenly realized what happened at that moment. All their gazes shifted toward Harvey York.Looking at him behaving so calm and collected, the crowd started to speculate that he was actually Sheldon Xavier’s grandson-in-law.The Yorks were about to turn mad!‘If he is actually Sheldon Xavier’s grandson-in-law, who in the whole of South Light would even dare to touch him?!”A single word from a man like Sheldon Xavier could make a normal family bask in glory and riches or it could make them go extinct.Even if the Yorks were the top family in South Light, they would have to tread carefully in the presence of Sheldon Xavier.Even if Sheldon did not have the power to destroy the Yorks with a single word, provoking him would mean that the Yorks would have yet another powerful enemy to deal with in the future.Melissa Leo’s dragon-head cane trembled slightly after hearing that, her freckled face was making an expression as dark as night.She had to reevaluate Harvey York at
Soon, Sheldon Xavier walked toward Harvey York.Tyson Woods wanted to intercept him, but his facial expressions kept changing constantly in hesitation. He could only bite the bullet and eventually stepped forward.And Ethan Hunt’s right hand was slowly clutching the hilt of his sword.They did not know the reason for this big shot’s arrival, but nobody was allowed near their chief instructor when he was around.“Ethan, Tyson, stand down!”Harvey York did not even stand up even at this point and said with a chuckle, “I wonder, what might be the purpose of your arrival, Elder Sheldon?”“How presumptuous! How dare you still sit in the presence of the first-in-command of South Light?! Who do you think you are?!” Yonathan York barked in the midst of the crowd.He did not know the relations between Harvey and Sheldon, but he saw a sliver of opportunity when the sight unfolded before him.A chance to provoke the relationship between the two.After hearing this, Quinton York said cold
Harvey York immediately chuckled.“Elder Xavier, you’re joking!“Your granddaughter is helping me take care of things in my company!“But she and I are just good friends!“There is nothing more than that.“Besides, I already have a wife.“She’s really great, I love her.”“Is that so?”Sheldon Xavier was hugging his arms.“Then, have you been thinking about divorcing her recently?”Harvey said calmly, “I owe too much to my wife for the past three years. I’ve already sworn to take good care of her my whole life!“To make up for what I owe!“To give her a brighter future!“I’ll make her the happiest woman alive!”“Good, very good!”Sheldon laughed.He immediately turned around and left after he was done talking. He neither spoke to Melissa Leo from beginning till the end, nor did he even bat an eye at John Gotti.It was as if he came specifically just to interrogate Harvey, and had gotten an answer that he wanted to know.Why?The first-in-command of South Light came al
All the Yorks’ eyes shifted toward Quinton York.‘Why would he stop everyone from rushing at this crucial moment?’‘What does he mean?’Even Melissa Leo was frowning slightly, maybe her puppets that she had reselected were also rebellious?At that moment, Quinton walked to the front and he glared at Harvey York and looked deep into his eyes, then respectfully bowed in front of Melissa and said, “Grandma York, I’ll do my best to hunt down any prey!“Not to mention, Harvey isn’t just any prey!“Even though he’s already retired from the Sword Camp…“Even though Ethan Hunt stood up for him only because of their past relationships!“He was the Sword Camp’s chief instructor after all, he must never be underestimated!“I’d like to bring out the Yorks’ biggest trump card that I’ve prepared for occasions such as this. Please allow me to use it, Grandma York!”“Granted!”Melissa swung her cane.“I’m giving you ten minutes, I want this man to kneel in front of me!”Melissa turned aro
Dan's expression became extremely dark when he saw the bodyguards who had accompanied him for years drop like flies. He never expected that Death would come for him due to his lavish lifestyle. However, everything that happened right now continued to remind him that Death was getting extremely close.When his final bodyguard became nothing but mincemeat, Dan's expression turned pale. Then, he noticed that stone fragments were flying toward where he was. Dan frowned. He was not sure why the ambusher would do something useless like this.But then, he suddenly smelled a familiar scent."Thunderblasts?!"The moment Dan smelled the scent, he quickly rolled away with all the strength he could muster.Boom!The moment Dan rolled out, a Thunderblast fell right where he had been earlier. A powerful explosion rolled over him. Dan, who was still in mid-air, could only feel his hair standing up because he heard more bullets being fired.It was obvious that the ambusher was prepared. It woul
When the dozens of bodyguards finally found Dan after a round of searching, all of them heaved a sigh of relief."Are you alright, sir?"When Dan saw that his subordinate appeared, he swallowed a mouthful of blood before bitterly replying, "I'm fine. Don't worry.""Sir, should we call an ambulance?""Call for support! Now!""Darn it! There are people in Grand City who would do something like this to Mr. Dan?" They had angered faces, as if they were already mortal enemies of those who had laid a trap for Dan. Since if anything happened to Dan, they would be responsible for it too."On the ground!"At this time, Dan had just stood up straight. However, he suddenly felt a murderous intent. He immediately yelled out and immediately laid flat on the ground in a prone position.The bodyguards did not even notice what was happening. Before they could do anything, there were already the sounds of bullets being fired. A bodyguard who wanted to shield Dan instantly had the upper half of
Afternoon. Twelve sharp.A dozen dark green Toyota Prados drove into Grand City Central Plaza. In no time, a group of men-in-black quickly evacuated everyone from the location.The tourists and residents were both quite angry. But they did not dare to stop them when they faced the aggressive men-in-black.Shortly, the security guards for the plaza came. But when they saw the ID from one of the men-in-black, they quickly retreated.As soon as they managed to secure the location, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan drove into the plaza.Then, Dan got out of the car. "Relay my order to the others. No one is allowed to enter or leave this place." After Dan's order, the entire plaza was instantly put on high alert. There were even a few on the nearby high-rise with sniper rifles in their hands, ready to take on any dangers.At the same time, Dan and several of his confidants approached an area where there were plenty of storage boxes. He looked around the place, and he finally laid his eyes on a
Hale looked at Harvey with a serious look, as if he was arranging words in his mind. After a long time, he said, "Mr. Harvey, the Chapter of Ascension is like a dream to me. If I hold it right now, not only will I not be able to make myself invincible, but it will most likely kill me."I know what it means when I have such a treasure in my possession. If it's someone else, giving him the Chapter of Ascension will hurt him instead. But you're different. You're the Representative of the Martial Arts Alliance. You're also the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group and the scion of Dragon Gate. You have influence through all these sectors, and you also have enough personal power. "You'll be able to guarantee your safety even if you have the Chapter of Ascension. Most importantly, I know your character. You won't give up on me after I give you the Chapter of Ascension. You will keep your promise of giving me a wealthy and carefree life after this. That's why I hope you'll keep it. Give y
Harvey quickly stopped Mrs. Hoffman, who wanted to bend her knee. He smiled and said, "It's fine—no need for formalities. I did make some effort, but the one who actually saved you is Clarion. Don't mistake your savior for someone else."Mrs. Hoffman blinked her seductive eyes. "Mr. Representative, you're too humble. I've heard everything from Mr. Clarion. Without your insistence, I couldn't imagine what would become of us."Hale narrowed his eyes and spoke sincerely, "Mr. Representative, after what you said, I think it would be dishonest for me to continue hiding my secrets. You know why I'm being pursued this time. I can tell you that I indeed have the Chapter of Ascension. It was something I've authored after I meditated before the statue in the Veiled Sanctuary."However, it's written in riddles. After so many years, even I still can't understand much of it. If you're interested, it's stored in a storage box in the Grand City Central Plaza. I've set a password that no one will f
"The Jacksons can be handled easily. They prefer to do things steadily. That's why they probably won't do anything rash for the time being." Then, Clarion's expression turned more serious. "But White Peak is different. Their Predecessor is Rasputin Jackson. Just like his name, he's truly insane!"Not to mention, White Peak and Dan have a very good relationship. They're almost like a family. Now that you have completely offended Zeon, White Peak won't stop until you're dead. If you face Rasputin directly, I'm worried you're going to be at a disadvantage."Harvey smiled. "Rasputin? What a befitting tyrannical name. Looks like I have to find a chance to pay him a visit…"Just when Harvey was joking, the door leading to the back was pushed open. And then, they saw Mrs. Hoffman walking out, the swelling on her face somewhat receded. She was a lot calmer now, but there was a slight seductiveness in her eyes.While Harvey did not say anything, he was somewhat surprised inside. Because he
The next morning.The entire Grand City was surrounded by a thick layer of mist. Visibility was down to 30 feet, and the air was extremely damp. Just breathing alone was very uncomfortable.When Harvey woke up, he saw Clarion calmly sitting on a couch in the side room. His expression would become twisted at times, as if he was thinking and waiting. In his mind, he was debating with himself.Harvey looked at this moment curiously. It was normal for a blue blood to know how to enjoy life. But when did he learn how to think? He had truly mastered a skill."Can your body handle it without rest? There won't be peace in Grand City after this," Harvey reminded as he poured a glass of water and set it next to Clarion.After they saved Hale last night, they sent him to the Grand City Hospital to be treated. He was currently in a courtyard within the Dragon Gate Training Hall. Harvey is at ease with Rachel taking care of the defenses there.Clarion did not leave. Instead, he stayed by Harv
"Let's not talk about the time after Harvey's appearance. We'll talk about the time before that. Clarion had never been close with us. When there was something good, he would always be there. But whenever we needed someone to do some heavy lifting, that old man of his would ask him to go back for some work."It's fine if this only happens a few times, but if it occurs repeatedly, it will make him look suspicious especially now that I think back about it." Dan narrowed his eyes as he was analyzing it."Especially what happened tonight. It's impossible that he can't see hints that we play a part behind Camellia and Zeon. Yet, he still helped Harvey without any reservations. All I can say is that it's difficult to lead the group when everyone's loyalty is divided. Our relationship is over, I guess…"Coco roared. "That fool! We share the same blood! How could he do something like that? He and his dad are the same… Ingrates! He's probably even thinking that he can replace you and become
Harvey left with his men after he had completely humiliated Zeon and Camellia. His brutality and madness were the greatest weapons against Zeon and the others. It was enough to stop them from resisting.Camellia watched Harvey leaving, her expression cold and vicious.While Harvey never even touched her, it was enough to completely humiliate her.After taking in a deep breath, Camellia walked over to a balcony and pulled out her phone. She then dialed a number…-"Really? Platinum Casino's pride is dashed? Even someone so arrogant like Zeon has bent the knee? Someone so full of themselves like Camellia has been humiliated? Has Hale been taken away? And all of this is because of a young man with Clarion?" Coco was gasping in shock as she enjoyed her cup of coffee in a courtyard in Parkerville.As if everything that had transpired had surpassed her expectations.Dan put down his gold-framed glasses and slowly asked, "What happened?"Coco sighed. "After apologizing at the Foster r
