“Mother was nagging about it yesterday already, saying that Father was trying to entertain some poor relative again!“I didn’t think that it would be Harvey York!“Where does he get the courage to attend the evening banquet anyway? Compared to Young Master Walker, Harvey’s just a beggar.“Why did I even think that he was handsome when I was younger?”Hazel Malone looked at Harvey and could not help but let out a secret sigh, then subconsciously compared Steven Walker with her childhood sweetheart, Harvey. She didn’t know how appalling the comparisons were until then!Steven was exceptionally talented at such a young age, being the business manager of Kaizen Group at the moment. He also attended Mordu’s off-road car club and was the nephew of Deputy Branch Leader Walker.Regardless of the connections, influence, or capabilities, a character like this could be considered the top man in Mordu already.Compared to him, Harvey was not even worthy to carry shoes for him.As for Har
The crowd was dead silent after hearing those words. Everyone was shocked while looking at Harvey York.“Harvey, what exactly do you mean by that?”June Lee’s willow eyebrows frowned. She was furious.“Steven Walker gave you some respect for shaking your hand. It’s an opportunity for you. It’s fine if you don’t want to shake hands, but you said that he has no right to shake your hand?”“You said that he has too low of a status, capability, and identity?”“And that he’s unworthy to shake your hand?”“Who do you think you are?”“Longmen’s deputy branch leader?”Hazel Malone was dumbfounded when she stared at Harvey in astonishment.But she soon understood that Harvey, the live-in son-in-law, must’ve had come to Mordu to be the live-in son-in-law of the Malone family. This poor man must’ve planned to have a piece of gold for himself!Seeing that Hazel and Steven came together must’ve made Harvey quite jealous. That was why he started to insult Steven.At this moment, Hazel had
Steven Walker sighed. He was too tired to even talk with Harvey York any longer. He looked at Kelly Malone and said, “Uncle Malone, I won’t tell my uncle, Deputy Branch Leader Walker, about this out of respect for Hazel Malone and Aunty Malone.“But, you best send this country bumpkin back to where he came from.“If not, even I can’t help you if he were to spout nonsense outside.”Steven let out a sigh, then turned around and left after saying those words. He felt like he would be dragged into the mess if he even stayed in the same room as Harvey.All the other guests had their eyes twitching, then all of them stood up and showed forced smiles on their faces.“CEO Malone, I still have some business to attend to back home, so I’ll be leaving now. I’ll treat you to a meal next time! Next time!”After a few words, the guests ran faster than rabbits ever could.With the crazy person, Harvey, spouting nonsense here, the guests would also be in trouble if someone from Longmen were to
“You’d still keep this live-in son-in-law that’s been kicked out of another family and insist on him marrying our daughter!“Kelly Malone, you’re sick! Sick with madness!”Kelly then coldly replied, “Hazel Malone and Harvey York were childhood sweethearts. Both families already agreed on the marriage back then. I’m only honoring my end of the promise. Why? Is that bad?”“You…”June Lee was so mad that she could not catch a breath. She sat on the chair and glared at Kelly as if she wanted to tear him apart.Hazel frowned. She was getting more repulsed the more she looked at Harvey at that moment.Other than bluffing up a storm, Harvey was only good at chasing after what he could not obtain.It was because of Harvey that Hazel’s loving and caring parents were on each other’s throats.Her mother might even fall sick because of how mad she was.Steven Walker was so mad that he also left. It was unsure what the family was going to do next.Thinking about those affairs, Hazel felt
Harvey York walked out of the Building of Peace, then took a glance behind him without saying a word.He was indeed Mordu’s branch leader of Longmen, and this was where he would be revealing his identity.Even though Kelly Malone and his family did not believe Harvey, they would do so in the future.Harvey did not have any intention to explain either. He called for a cab and went to the destination that Tyson Woods arranged them to be.Harvey’s phone vibrated at this moment. A text message was forwarded.Kelly urged Harvey to stay in a hotel for the time being, then told Harvey not to chase after unattainable dreams and remain realistic. He also reminded Harvey not to talk big.Harvey could not help but smile after seeing the text message. Even though it had been a long time since they met, Kelly was still indeed a fine adult.Harvey felt that Kelly genuinely cared about him.Harvey gave a thought about it, then replied without providing much of an explanation saying that he ha
George Zabel respectfully opened a photo on his phone, cast it on the television, and then started his explanation.“Out of four sons from the Bauer family, the second and third sons are both filth. There’s really nothing good to talk about.“But the eldest son, Aiden, and the youngest son, Marco, are quite capable people.“Their decent combat prowess aside, they are practically being supported by a few founding members of Longmen’s Mordu branch.“Aiden previously formed an alliance with Deputy Branch Leader Josh Ward while Marco joined forces with Deputy Branch Leader Justin Walker.“These two deputy branch leaders are quite influential big characters, but they didn’t just help these two sons without any compensation.“Both sides had an agreement, once the Bauer family rose in ranks, they would have to support these deputy branch leaders and make them official branch leaders.“The Bauer family has a lot of influence toward Mordu’s Longmen branch, after all. It would be hard to
George Zabel and Old Niner had already prepared quite a lot of things in Mordu. Both of them could not wait for Harvey York to take action because they would have a chance to perform as well.Harvey gave a thought about the situation and then replied, “It’ll cost a bit too much if we take action now.“Let them fight each other first. We’ll clean up the rest when most of their heads are gone.“Is there any news about the Smith family?”Harvey changed the subject.“The Smith family…”George had a stern look on his face. After a moment, he then whispered, “Sir York, I was incompetent.“I’ve been trying to gather information from the sources that I have, but the scouts that were involved with the situation have all disappeared without a trace. It felt like some invisible eye was watching us.“That’s why after losing a couple of my best men, I stopped them from continuing with the mission.“Please give me instructions as to what I need to do next.”Harvey was slightly perplexed.
“You’re just a waste! Do you still think that you’re the best top talent in Mordu’s Longmen branch?!“Young Master Bauer treated you to a meal as respect!“You really don’t know the meaning of death, sneaking out halfway through the meal!“You should’ve just gave in and give the shares that belonged to Young Master Bauer, then you’ll be able to enjoy all the glory and riches that you could ever have! All the good food and the nice dresses that you’ll have for yourself!“But you don’t know how to pick right from wrong! Who do we blame for all this?!“Come, bring her back! Young Master Bauer’s waiting!”While the fighter leading the group was speaking, he gave Rachel Hardy two more slaps across her face. She seemed like she was about to faint after getting terribly beaten up.But Rachel still had some consciousness intact. She subconsciously looked toward the direction of Harvey York and the others, and then weakly muttered, “Help me…”Slap!The fighter slapped her across the fa
