“Remember this lesson!”Keegan stepped forward, then kicked Kurtis to the ground.“You should just stay away from Madam Kairi and Consultant York in the future.“You better thank Consultant York for only breaking your leg. If not, I would’ve gotten people to carry a coffin here by now!”Keegan’s calm words made Kurtis instinctively shiver. He knew that his biggest support was a man of his word.Chanse and the others had goosebumps after hearing those words. They finally understood that the underworld was a ruthless and decisive place.Harvey didn’t seem too bothered by this, though. He knew Keegan was just making a statement in front of him. Kurtis’s incident had nothing to do with him, after all.Kurtis kept banging his head on the ground after hearing those words.“Thank you, Madam Kairi! Thank you, Consultant York!“Other than to apologize, I came to prove my innocence as well!“I’m a perverted man, but I’m not stupid either!“I only acted that way because Chanse gave me
Kurtis pulled out his phone, and played a recording with a trembling hand. It was the phone conversation between him and Chanse.No matter how sharp Chanse’s tongue was, he had no way of refuting the situation anymore.Kairi’s eyes turned cold. “A government official, yet you work with outside forces to harm your superior… What a heinous man you are, Chanse!”Harvey glanced at Capri.“It’s time for you to do your job, Director Capri. If you don’t give us an explanation for the situation… You won’t get to keep your position for long!”Capri’s eyes twitched. Inwardly, she cursed Harvey.If Dragon Cell was involved, Chanse would probably get a chance to live… But making her take care of the situation would mean that the John family had to butt in.Handling the situation publicly would turn away the government officials and their families. However, playing favoritism would give Harvey and Kairi’s people a chance for to take over the John family through the government.No matter w
The land department spent three months trying to get the deal, but now, the contract was sent straight to the government without any effort.At this point, Kairi’s authority was completely solidified. The position of second-in-command was hers without question.After dealing with the relocation project and Chanse…Kairi was officially working.The departments she was in charge of were finally reporting to her. She was getting into the groove of her work, too.Harvey had no intention of getting involved; he was only sipping tea in the guest room.He stood up, ready to leave when he was finally done with his tea. He was excited to see just how Damon’s inauguration ceremony was going to go.The man had been suffering losses constantly.The John family wouldn’t just take all the humiliation without fighting back, either.-At dusk, Harvey decided to call a cab back to the Fortune Hall after seeing Kairi still working.As soon as he got out of the car, a figure came out of the sh
“What the? What happened?”Castiel, Leona, and the others ran out after hearing about the news. Everyone became angry after they understood the situation.“You’re talking about that woman, Sir York?!” Castiel exclaimed, gritting his teeth.“She begged me to help… And yet, she lied about every single thing that I asked! I didn’t think that she’d come back to cause you trouble! I’ll deal with her the next time I see her!”Castiel was clearly unhappy about Aleah.“It’s just a small problem. No need to get upset. We meet all sorts of odd people during work, anyway,” Harvey said.He waved his hand, signaling Castiel to calm down.“Is the woman special or something?” he asked curiously.Castiel scoffed.“It’s not that! It’s just completely unbelievable! Take a look here!Castiel stumbled inside before coming back out with a piece of red paper.“The Unbroken War… She’s only fifteen? She looks a lot older than that,” Harvey said. Castiel shook his head.“You’re mistaken, Sir York
At the same time…In the John family’s courtyard.Blaine crossed his arms. He stood on the terrace while looking at the pond in front of him. A fishing line and bait were next to him, but he wasn’t interested in fishing at all.Several security guards were standing behind him. They could tell that Blaine was in a bad mood, so they decided to keep their mouths shut.After a long while, Blaine’s eyes moved slightly. He sat in his chair.“You’re back, Your Holiness?” he said, smiling.“Yes.”Almost at the same time, a woman appeared on the terrace. She put her umbrella to the side before casually sitting beside Blaine, and gulped her wine down.She then licked her lips, as if she didn’t have enough.“You’ve met Harvey, didn’t you? What do you think?” Blaine sipped his tea before finally speaking up. At the same time, he lit up a scented candle. He narrowed his eyes while enjoying the fragrance.“I did,” Aleah replied. “I have to admit, he is quite the talented man. Not only is
Blaine’s eyes flashed with a fiery glint. Then, he smiled. “I’ve had people promise me things that they never intended to fulfill, Your Holiness.“But this is the first time someone’s promised me something this big. Do you really think I’d need a woman by my side when I rise to power?”After that, Blaine changed the subject. “Let’s talk business. In your opinion, what are the chances of Harvey compiling the maps?”“Big, if not definitely,” Aleah replied.“No elite would ever want to die.“The young master of Longmen, the prince of South Light, and the representative of the country’s Martial Arts Alliance…“Every single one of these identities is no less powerful. Every single one of the identities represents endless glory and riches.“Can a man like that even resist such temptation? Even if he can, surely he’d still be curious about this…“Let’s wait. It doesn’t matter if he wants to work with us or not. People of his caliber would always want to see how the so-called everla
Two days later.Harvey went to the people’s hospital.According to the deal, he was going to deal with Westley’s problem after Kairi’s position was solidified.After arriving at the sick room, Harvey could see the entire place had been completely redecorated. Not only was there a massive TV, but there was also a leather couch and a marble coffee table. All sorts of dishes were placed on it. Meanwhile, two beautiful women in bunny suits were massaging Westley’s legs.He lazily raised his head, smiling, when he saw Harvey show up.“You really are particular about something like this, Sir York! You came exactly after a week! Not a minute too soon!”Harvey looked at the women with a faint smile.“I know you’re in good shape, and that you love your drugs…“But I should warn you. If you ignore my warnings and continue playing with women… Then you’d have to stay this way for the rest of your life.”Westley chuckled.“Of course I didn’t ignore you!“I’ve been wanting to go all out
Westley’s eyes twitched after seeing the string of nines.After all, the numbers were way bigger than what he could take out. Or rather, he’d be broke even if he could bring that amount.There were ninety-nine checks in the book.He suddenly felt like passing out.Harvey smiled disdainfully after seeing the horrible look on Westley’s face.“You’re giving up?” he said, picking up the checkbook to tap it on Westley’s face.“Are you trying to test me? Maybe Emery might have the right to do that… But not you!”“Right. Get everyone else out of here. We’ll go our separate ways after I deal with your problem. If you come for me the next time… Then I’ll make sure you suffer a horrible death!”Westley’s gaze kept darting around. Then, he chuckled.“You’re right. Since you’re dealing with the side effects for me…“I’ll owe you a favor from now on.“If I even go against you again, I’ll slam my head to the ground till I die. You don’t need to move even a finger.”“Is that so?” Harvey s
