“I’ve contacted the others already!“They’ll send in the security to handle this soon!“I’m warning you, Harvey York! Take out whatever it is that you stole!“If not, you won’t be able to get away with this if we find out that the diamond’s on you!“According to the rules here, stealing something would have a punishment equivalent to someone cheating on gambling venues, and that is to have your hand broken!”Bryan Holt coldly chuckled.Xynthia Zimmer stood in front of Harvey and exclaimed, “Stop throwing out baseless accusations! Harvey wouldn’t steal something like this. He doesn’t even need the money!”“He doesn’t need the money? Xynthia, stop protecting him already. His whole body screams, ‘I’m in need of a lot of money’!“Hurry up and get over here before he drags you into the situation!”Tamara Ebony pulled Xynthia to the side and stopped her from standing up for Harvey.Before Xynthia could even say anything else, the entrance of the hall was kicked open. A dozen suited

“Harvey, if you really found something…”“Just take it out.”“Miss Ebony will also thank you.”Kait Walker, who had stayed silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. Harvey was just her temporary boyfriend, but she still wanted to help him.Harvey was indifferent. “I didn’t find anything. How can I hand it over?”Kait frowned. “Harvey, you don’t understand how serious this is. ”“This place is owned by the Jean family of Mordu. I heard that the Islanders also have some shares here. If you make trouble here, it won’t end well for you.”“If you hand the diamond over right now, I’ll apologize to Miss Ebony for you and we’ll consider the problem settled. Alright?”“Apologize?” Harvey didn’t sound at all concerned. “Why should I apologize for things I didn’t do?”“Are you sure you didn’t pick up anything?” Kait’s frown deepened. It seemed Harvey didn’t appreciate her goodwill at all.Right now, he certainly wasn’t thankful for her kindness. Harvey remained uncaring, too lazy to

Harvey’s socks and shoes were taken off. His belt was pulled away, too. Yet, they found nothing.Bryan’s expression of arrogance gradually changed into disbelief. He exclaimed grimly, “Impossible! The diamond must be with him!” Lenny frowned. He kicked the security personnel away and searched Harvey by himself.The other security personnel then went through all the nooks and crannies in the entire hall. However, they found nothing.After more than ten minutes of active searching, they became downcast and exchanged gloomy looks. Even if they found the diamond in a corner, they could still frame Harvey.But now, there was nothing. What could they do?Lenny’s eyes fell on Bryan.Noticing this, Bryan frowned and nodded.Lenny took a deep breath and called in a few more security personnel, including the female ones.“Search!”“The suspect may have hidden it in someone else’s body. Everyone has to be searched!”“If he stole the diamond, then his fingerprints must be on it!”S

“Well, now. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation, Manager Thompson?” Harvey asked calmly.Lenny, who was about to leave, stopped and glared at Tamara, his incompetent friend. He then took a deep breath and said coldly, “What do you mean, Harvey?”“She has just admitted that she put the diamond in my pocket in an attempt to frame me.”“You should explain that to me, shouldn’t you?”Harvey continued. He wore a hollow, indifferent smile.“Did she? Did Miss Ebony just say that?” Lenny pretended to look surprised. “Did any of you hear it?”Bryan was the first to stand up and said, “No, we didn’t hear it!”“Yes, Miss Ebony is the victim! How could she put the diamond in your pocket?”“Not to mention, you don’t really have it in your pocket. How can you say that she’s accusing you?”Steven countered eloquently.Tamara took the opportunity to backpedal on her mistake and screamed angrily, “Stop getting ahead of yourself, York! It was just a slip of the tongue!”“The reason you could

“Harvey! Enough!”Kait finally spoke.“Tonight’s my birthday dinner. I don’t want to see blood.”“Fine. For my girlfriend’s sake, I won’t kill you.” Harvey stepped forward and slapped him again, sending his cruel words back to him.After that, he looked at Lenny with an indifferent expression. “You seem to have just said that you’d give me an explanation.”“How are you going to explain now?”“I won’t give you a hard time. Just follow the rules of Paramount, as you’ve so graciously mentioned to me repeatedly.”Lenny was intimidated by Harvey’s aura. He blurted out, “According to the rules, the thief will have to cut off one finger, and those who took part in framing will receive the same punishment.”Harvey patted Lenny’s face lightly and said, “Then, follow the rules. I’m waiting for your justification.”Bryan and Tamara’s faces turned pale.Bryan covered his face and yelled, “How dare you hit me, York! Just wait, I’ll kill you!”“You’ve no idea, but my elder brother is th

In less than three minutes…A group of tall and burly bodyguards walked into the hall. All of them looked powerful. They seemed like the type that punched hundreds of pounds.Harvey sipped some juice as he studied the bodyguards with narrowed eyes. He could tell at a glance that these people were great fighters from the streets.Lenny held his head after seeing them coming. His spiteful glare fell on Harvey.A bald man marched forward. He seemed to be more than six foot tall. He didn’t have any eyebrows, but his skin was extremely pale, and he carried with him a strange fierceness.He stepped forward and threw a casual glance at Harvey. He then picked up a bottle of red wine and started drinking.After downing more than half of the bottle, he narrowed his eyes at Harvey and sneered, “Boy, I heard that you dared to hit our Manager Thompson’s head in Paramount. This is our turf, you know. You’ve got guts!”Harvey said nonchalantly, “Thank you for the compliment.”The bald man nar
Chapter 1704
A man in a white suit, looking incomparable pompous, emerged from the crowd and approached Harvey in an instant.He was a true master. He was Big Fly’s bodyguard, and had helped Big Fly fight through many bloody battles in Mordu.He pulled out a military dagger and swung it directly at Harvey’s throat.“Ah!”A burst of shocked exclamations came from the watching crowd. No one had expected that things would develop to this point.Harvey might die here tonight!Xynthia gasped in fright. “Brother-in-law, be careful!”Unfortunately, no one heard her words.“Too weak!”Just as the military dagger was about to touch Harvey, Harvey smiled faintly. He stretched out two fingers and caught it with ease.Clang!A crisp sound.The imposing white suited man’s figure fell into an abrupt pause. The killing intent on his face seemed to freeze.“How can this be?!”His military dagger was caught so easily by Harvey. Harvey’s grip was so strong, making him unable to advance even one step.
Chapter 1705
Big Fly never expected that his trump card, the capable fighters he brought tonight, were nothing when facing this young man.His skills were simply terrifying!Rarely had Big Fly seen a man with such prowess, despite being in Mordu’s streets for so many years.However, he was indeed one of the big bosses of the streets. After his defeat, he didn’t intend to rally anyone.He knew very well that at this moment, it was impossible for his men to win against Harvey. That is, unless he called Denzel Washington or Lucas Jean for help.However, he would face the greatest shame if he actually involved those two big shots for such a trivial matter.Thinking this, Big Fly held back his anger and said with the politest tone he could manage, “I’ll turn a blind eye on the matter tonight. But rest assured, we’ll meet again.”Harvey couldn’t care less. “Apologize, and give me a satisfactory justification.”“I’m sorry. I was reckless tonight!”So saying, Big Fly proceeded to cut off Lenny,
