After kicking Brock over to the ground, Avel rushed towards Harvey and knelt. “CEO York, I was blind to the fact that you were there last night and offended you!”“Please be the better man and forgive me!”‘Forgive?!’The crowd was dead silent.Stacy and Rae were especially in utter disbelief.Avel, a mob boss, came all the way here to beg for Harvey’s forgiveness?This was proof of how strong Harvey truly was!Avel was here to sincerely apologize as well.When he returned home last night, still stubborn and unyielding, Shane only told him a name.Prince York.Shane didn’t need to say anything else. Avel was already drenched in his own sweat the second he heard that name.Even though he was a gangster himself, he knew how powerful that man actually was.There was no need to mention anything. The knowledge that Tyson Woods, the new king of the streets, actually worked under Prince York, was enough to point out the problem.Avel did not have much interest in inheriting the f

A man wearing bright clothes jogged all the way here, with the protection of several private bodyguards.He was none other than the talented, self-proclaimed genius of Country J, Steve Lee.“Master Lee! Master Lee!”Brock, who was still on the ground, almost jumped up after seeing him.“You finally came, Master Lee!”“You must bring me justice!”“This live-in son-in-law had been causing a ruckus here since early in the morning. He said something about you transferring all the assets of South Light’s business department to him!”“You have to tell me! He’s just a liar, right?!”“ Star Chaebol is extremely powerful! We wouldn’t be scared of a Country H citizen!”“Hurry, Master Lee! Crush this live-in son-in-law! Break his legs!”Brock exclaimed furiously as he pointed at Harvey, pride coloring his face.He was still in denial regarding Harvey’s power and status.He hoped that his boss Steve Lee, a man with an extraordinary status, would trample Harvey to death.But Steve quic

Steve’s eyes twitched. His face had lost all color.But without Harvey’s orders, he would not dare say a word.After kneeling that night, he had already lost his spine. He no longer had the courage to go against Harvey.He did not even have the courage to contact Peter in the past few days. He could only prepare every procedure needed to transfer the assets as fast as he could.“Enough. If I don’t let him, he won’t speak at all.” Harvey said, smiling faintly.“In the beginning, you used the contract deal as a guise to trick my wife into drinking. You kept forcing her to drink, over and over again. Everyone knew exactly what you were doing.”“Today, you keep ridiculing me for no reason, over and over again. I wanted to just fire you to reduce our problems.”“But why are you so fond of being this irritating?”“Steve, is everyone from Country J this oblivious? Or is it because you didn’t properly teach your dog some manners?”“Having him bark at me like this annoys me greatly.”

Avel took an antique wooden box from one of his subordinates’ hands and opened it in front of Harvey. A blood red gem was inside of the box.The jewel was bright red, but there was a dark line from within the gem. It looked quite spectacular.“CEO York, this is the legendary Gem of the General. It is said that ancient generals were buried with this beautiful gem.”“I heard from the old man that you’re good at appraising antiques, so I bought this gift for you. Consider it a small token of my appreciation.”Harvey did not reach out for the gem, but stared at it for a long while.“How much did this cost you?”Avel smiled and replied, “Not much. It only costs 1.5 million. Pocket change, really.”“1.5 million?”Harvey smiled calmly.“Thank goodness I know that you’re a mob boss with no connection to the Naiswells’ actual business.”“If not, I might just choke you to death along with your entire family.”Avel was shocked.“CEO York, why would you say that?”“I bought this from

At ten o’clock in the morning, Harvey and Avel showed up at Buckwood’s Antique City.Harvey came to join in the fun and see exactly who owned Flynn’s Antiques, and how they had the courage to target him.If Flynn’s Antiques turned out to be a business owned by the Leos from Hong Kong, then Harvey would understand.He had never met anyone from the Flynn family at all, so he couldn’t understand why they would do something like this.Soon, several people gathered at the entrance of Flynn’s Antiques.The gangster standing in the lead kicked down the door. The rest of his men marched inside, all of them oozing murderous intent.The customers in the shop were scared witless. They instantly took a few steps back to give way.“Who are you people? What are you trying to do?”The clerk and the security guards present looked as though they were facing a dangerous enemy. Some guards brought out their electric batons to fend off these gangsters.Avel stormed into the shop and kicked an ant

If it weren’t for Harvey finding out that the gem was faulty, the consequences could’ve been dire.Why would Darren bother pretending that he didn’t know anything?They were all gangsters, after all. Such a pretense was meaningless.A high-tech extract within an expensive blood gem?If it turned out that this wasn’t the Flynn family’s doing, Avel was prepared to behead himself!Avel glared coldly at Darren. “I’ll give you one more chance, Darren. Admit to what you did, and I’ll let you live.”“If you wait for me to spill the beans for you, then you won’t have another chance to open up shop anymore. You just wait for someone to get you a casket!”A grave look flashed across Darren’s face, but he was quick on his wits. He chuckled lightly. “I really don’t know what I did wrong. Please, tell me!”Naturally, there were some things Darren just couldn’t admit to.Avel smiled coldly and waved his hand. One of his subordinates brought over a suitcase to the counter and opened it.The

Fakes within the antique industry were next to nothing. Since everyone worked in the same industry, even if they were fooled, they would just let it beLosing money in this line of work only meant that the person wasn’t good enough. Others can’t be blamed.But hiding a radioactive substance to harm others was the equivalent of alienating yourself within the industry.Darren’s eyes twitched. A forced smile appeared on his face, as pristine as a white gem.“Master Naiswell, this must be a mistake! I was the one that brought this here. I even appraised it myself since it has such a good texture. If there was anything wrong with it, I definitely wouldn’t sell it to you…”“Cut the nonsense!”Avel immediately cut Darren off.“We’re all adults here. Let’s just cut to the chase. Since you’re trying to prove that you have no ill-intent, then that’s fine. Swallow this thing whole, then. Not only will I believe you, but I’ll also grovel and apologize to you! I’ll even let Flynn’s Antiques

During her time in university, she met a wealthy man in his eighties with just a first-class plane ticket.She was then married into a wealthy family before she even graduated. Her eighty year-old husband passed away when she graduated, and as a result, a huge portion of his assets all landed right into her hands.In Hong Kong’s upper social circle, Faye had the nickname of Black Widow.Her tricks or motives notwithstanding, she had the looks of a goddess.
