Xynthia froze. A second later, she sputtered indignantly, “Mr. Keaton, I did not do that!”“I couldn’t even react when the curtain fell! I myself was scared!”“I’m a victim too! I didn’t use Stacy as a shield, either!”“You can’t accuse me like that!”Seth replied coldly, “I’m accusing you? Between Director Miller and a nobody like you, who do you think is more trustworthy?” “Even if you didn’t push Stacy, why didn’t you help block the curtain for her?”“She’s the main female lead of this movie! As a supporting character, aren’t you supposed to protect her anyway?”“Even if you’re not the culprit, you only stood by while Stacy was in danger.”“Explain this to me!”In her anger, Xynthia began to laugh.“Mr. Keaton! Since you said that, you should understand that I’d never push Stacy.”“Protecting her? I’m not even her bodyguard! I’m just a weak woman myself. What can I do?”“Do you want me to just stand there and take the hit instead?”“I’m sad about what happened to Stacy
Xynthia finally understood why Seth was gunning after her. She gritted her teeth and replied, “I won’t do either of those things! This accident has nothing to do with me, anyway!”Slap!Seth slapped Xynthia’s face again.“It does when I say that it does!”“You’re just an unknown actress! How dare you talk to me about logic?!”Seth chuckled coldly. He was one of Mordu’s biggest real estate tycoons, with hundreds of million dollars worth of assets.He was on good terms as well with the Holt family as well. If he wanted to, he could just sleep with any actress in the entertainment industry.Yet, a mere supporting character dared to go against him.“Fine! Since you don’t want to choose, I’ll choose for you!”Seth grabbed Xynthia’s hair and dragged her into a room on the side.“I’ll make you serve me nicely. Then, you’ll kneel in front of my wife!”How could Xynthia agree to those terms? She began to struggle desperately.“I’m going to call the police!”“I don’t believe that
“It’s nothing like that at all!”“Stacy was just unlucky!”“Director Miller wanted to shift the blame, and CEO Keaton was extremely unreasonable! That’s why they all took their anger out on Xynthia!”“CEO Keaton isn’t human at all! He had other plans for Xynthia this whole time!”The girls could no longer hold back, and swiftly explained everything to Harvey.They also told Harvey that Seth almost took advantage of Xynthia.If it weren’t for Xynthia’s stout character, she would’ve ended up in a much worse condition.Harvey was initially furious, but after a while, he calmed himself down.He quickly understood that this whole incident was just a setup against Xynthia.Stacy getting hurt and Seth’s violence must’ve been all part of the plan.No matter who set all this up, Seth and all the related people would still need to be punished for their actions.Before Harvey could say anything, the female infirmary staff glared and screamed at the girls.“You filthy actresses! You da
The car doors opened to reveal a dozen inspectors in uniforms.A few security guards around the place tried to stop them, but the inspector leading the group kicked them right to the ground.They then marched right toward the infirmary in a straight line.The inspector leading the group saluted right in front of Harvey. “Sir York! I am Jay Bourne, captain of Mordu Police Station from the Hengdian district. Ms. Lynch already gave me a call before.”“Please give us your orders!”“We’ll make sure to do things by the book!”The staff trembled slightly after seeing the fully-armed inspectors show up. Her pride was no longer there.She did not expect police from the Hengdian district to actually appear simply because of Harvey’s call.“Xynthia’s Apple phone, Hermes bag, Cartier watch, rings, and money are gone…among other things.”Previously, Harvey had already asked the girls about Xynthia’s missing belongings and who had taken them.“Find me those things.”“Arrest the people who
Fred was feeling very conceited.Not only was he a director, he was also from Hong Kong. Often, he wielded significant authority in Country H. Even the police did not dare to touch him.As such, he was confident that he could trample on these nobodies standing before him.“You’re the director?” Harvey asked calmly.“That’s right, I am! Who are you…”Slap!Before Fred was even done speaking, Harvey had already moved forward and slapped him hard on the face. With just a simple slap, Fred’s face was already crooked and swollen.Fred froze, and then wailed in pain. He covered his face and screamed, “You bastard! How dare you hit me?!”“Don’t you know what death is?!”The followers behind him were seething.“Do you even know what this place is, you brat?! How dare you hit someone here!”“Do you think we can’t end you?!”“Director Miller is nobility, and yet you dared to hit him? You’re finished!”The crowd of followers were jumping in anger while Harvey walked forward nonchal
Fred froze. He gritted his teeth and swiftly made a call.After ten minutes or so, the sound of high heels clacking from the entrance could be heard. A beautiful woman with an enchanting body and exquisite makeup entered, accompanied by her bodyguards.The woman walked in with her high heels, cold and haughty. “Fred, I heard that there’s an oblivious man causing trouble in Hengdian World Studios.”“Rest assured, you’ll have your justice. Young Master Flynn has asked me to mediate the affair.”“I do want to see who in Mordu has the guts to go against Young Master Flynn!”The enchanting woman was none other than the Black Widow, Faye Goddard herself.No one expected her to show up in Mordu after being kicked out of Buckwood, and for her to still be working for Matthew, the man leading the Four Masters of Mordu.She crossed her arms and walked nonchalantly toward the middle of the room. Her gaze landed on Harvey.Harvey sat in a darkened area, so Faye could not have a clear look a
Harvey walked forward nonchalantly and lightly slapped Faye on her face. He asked calmly, “So you’re Fred’s support?”“Y-ye… No…”Slap!Harvey swung his hand furiously across Faye’s face and exclaimed, “Louder! Did you not eat or something?”“No!”Faye trembled when she came back to her senses. She knelt on the ground, scared witless. “Sir York, I have nothing to do with this man!”‘Sir York?!’The crowd was dumbfounded to hear how she addressed Harvey. Nobody expected that a fierce and prideful woman like Faye would actually kneel in front of Harvey, let alone call him Sir York!What was going on here?!“You don’t?”“Then what are you doing here?” Harvey asked again.“I’m here to greet you myself, Sir York. If there’s nothing else, I’ll just leave right now… I’ll leave…!”Faye dearly wished that she had not come here in the first place.This man in front of her dared to send Matthew flying with a kick. Obviously, she would amount to nothing to him!In front of this m
Slap, slap, slap!Larry was merciless. He ruthlessly swung his palm against Fred’s face, slapping the latter dozens of times. Every single swing was full of power. Each time Fred got hit, he unleashed a loud yowl of pain. Harvey watched everything with narrowed eyes, saying nothing. He was curious. Larry kept on slapping Fred as he spoke. “It’s not that big of a deal when people come and cause trouble here.”“The problem is that you’re too useless! Not only did you let people act wildly, you even let a bunch of nobodies waltz in here as they please! Do you think I won’t be embarrassed?!”Naturally, Larry was openly insulting someone else.Jay could not help but say out loud, “You…”Harvey waved his hand, signalling Jay to quiet. He wanted to see what else Larry could do.“And how many times have I already told you?! Stay away from that woman whenever possible!”“She’s just a vixen who sleeps with countless people! She can show off if she bumps into an ordinary person, but wh
