Chapter 5694
The auction ended without a sound. What happened on the third floor would never be revealed.Everyone knew that Miley’s threats weren’t just empty words.If someone spoke about what happened, the ruthless woman would surely find out everything before slaughtering said person along with their entire families.Naturally, not a lot of people would talk about Harvey either. However, his name would be etched in the hearts of every single person in the outskirts’ upper social circle.They couldn’t go against someone like Stefan, but they wouldn’t dare challenge Harvey either.After all, someone who dared to make Stefan kneel were naturally extraordinary people as well.After going to the parking lot, Aria hesitated for a long time before finally speaking up.“Going against Mr. Stefan might be a bad idea, Sir York…”“What? Is he that impressive?”Harvey had no intention of looking up Stefan’s identity in the first place. He disliked the way that Stefan did things, but he decided to f

After a few minutes, the car finally left the tower and reached the highway.“It doesn’t matter if you’re scared or not, Harvey,” Aria said.“After that incident, you’re fated to go against Stefan. There’s no chance for you two to reconcile anymore.”Aria was filled with disbelief. She saw that Harvey managed to make Stefan grovel in front of him, but it still felt like a dream nonetheless.Or rather, there weren’t a lot of times that the three great temples would suffer, since their status was simply too powerful—let alone a consul.Aria was wondering how she was going to report the situation to Lennon.She wanted the Surreys to stay away from Harvey for the time being.He was a strong man, but he was simply too dangerous. His actions were incompatible with the family as well.Harvey looked calmly at the cars outside the window. Nobody knew if he managed to see through Aria or not.“Do you really think that without what happened… Everything would just end without a hitch, Ms.

“Judging from Stefan’s actions, maybe your family has one of the Eyed Beads…”Harvey smiled faintly.Aria shivered.“But that doesn’t sound right at all. I heard that many years ago, the four great tribes and the Wolven Tribe’s two families had one each.“The three great temples, too.“All Nine Eyed Bead are split to the outskirts’ different forces.“But as time passed, the legends became untrue.“For example, where did you even get the bead if it was true?”“Who knows what’s actually real or not anyway?“That said, the Aenar Temple has a reason to target the Surrey family. Your grandfather knows exactly why.“Another thing. The three great temples are used to being high and mighty after so many years. They have no respect for the outside world anymore.“Judging from Stefan’s actions, they have no bottom line either.“Tell your grandfather to get ready. The outskirts are about to be in an uproar.”After seeing the dark clouds outside the window, Harvey chuckled.“A storm’

“Of course, it doesn’t matter how angry Stefan is.“He won’t do anything to you today. After all, he’d get too much attention if he does.”Harvey was calm.There was something else that he didn’t say.No matter how rich and powerful Stefan was… This was the Aenar Temple’s territory.Stefan had tons of ways to deal with Harvey as long as he played within the rules… But if he planned to lay his hands on Aria, he’d have to seek support from prominent figures with powerful forces. If he did that, though, he’d be seen as desperate.These prominent figures might not lend their forces that easily, either.Aria thought about the situation for a moment.“Would you want to leave first? Even if they’re trying to…”Harvey was speechless; he didn’t think that the fourth lady of the Surrey family would be this silly sometimes.“It’s fine. If I can’t even deal with such a small situation…” he said, tapping Aria’s shoulder. “I would’ve died countless times by now.”Aria bit on her lip w

After getting the feeling that Harvey touched the ID, the inspector took a few steps back. He pulled out his firearm and pointed it at Harvey’s head.He then waved his hand, signaling for the other inspectors to step up. Loud clacks were heard as the inspectors removed the safeties of their guns, looking fierce. “What are you doing?” Harvey showed an innocent expression. “I only took a look at your ID! There’s no need for this.”The inspector’s face darkened instantly.“You’re being arrested, Harvey York! You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used in the court of law!”Before Harvey could say anything, Aria had already gotten out of the car with a frown.“I am Aria Surrey of the Luster Tribe! I don’t know who you’re going against for doing this…but you better keep your firearms away from this!“Another thing! Sir York is our important guest. Going against him would mean going against the entire Surrey family!”The inspector scoffed.“We know the

After all, the dizzy pill incident had been shaking up the entire outskirts recently.If Harvey were blamed for this, not only would the inspectors be renowned for solving the case… Harvey would be taken out as well.No matter how powerful he was, no matter how strong of a background he had, he’d be trapped in a hopeless situation.The inspector quickly calmed himself down.He fearlessly tore the tape off his ID and burned it with a lighter, then glared coldly at Harvey.“It doesn’t matter if you’re a suspect or not! You’re coming with us regardless!“If not, we can shoot you down in the name of the law!“It doesn’t matter if you’re the holder of a Black Card, or an important guest of the Surrey family! The law will always prevail!”He waved his hand before speaking up again.“Go!”“How dare you?!” Aria exclaimed.Wildcat came out of the car with a cold expression as well.However, Harvey shook his head calmly. “It’s fine. I’ll go with them. You should head back first, Ms

Vroom!Half an hour later, the police car stopped in front of the police station in the outskirts’ new district.“Out!” the inspector snarled, glaring coldly at Harvey.Harvey casually walked out before glancing around him. The outskirts were a big place, but the resources here were inferior compared to big cities.Other than being a police station, this was also a place to detain people. Simply put, before being convicted, those who broke the law would be kept here for forty-eight hours.Instead of taking Harvey to the main building, the inspector took him to the side, where a black building stood.Two other inspectors glared coldly at him inside the checkroom.“Please remove your belongings before entering. When you’re cleared of your suspicion, we’ll return everything to you again.”A plastic bag was thrown on top of the wooden board in front of Harvey.The inspector appeared somewhat greedy as he glared coldly at Harvey. Harvey smiled at the inspector; he wasn’t in a rush

“Oh!”Realization dawned on Harvey, and he slapped his head.“You’re not talking about the bead I bought, are you? Why didn’t you say so in the first place?”He sighed.“There wouldn’t be so many misunderstandings if that was the case. What a shame!”“Enough nonsense! Take it out already! If you’re deemed guilty, then we have to confiscate the bead!” yelled the inspector. Harvey smiled. “It’s not that I don’t want to. I just don’t have it.”“You don’t?!” The inspector placed the barrel of his firearm on Harvey’s head. “Do you want to die?!”“No need to be that scary, inspector… Let me find an excuse and explain the situation first.“I only bought the bead because it can protect me from disasters. “When you people pointed your guns at me at the highway, I immediately understood.“I was in deep trouble! It was time for the bead to show its effect! So, I split it in half. “Still, it doesn’t seem like it’s working at all. Even small fries like you are causing me trouble righ
