At 2.30 p.m.Harvey and Yvonne instantly attracted a lot of attention when they appeared at the door of Seifudo.Seifudo was a clinic that sold Chinese medicine. However, many people who came here to treat their injuries were the hooligans from the streets who got hurt from fights.Sure enough, many had come to treat their knife and gunshot wounds. However, they would enter the hidden basement instead of entering the reception hall openly.As Harvey and Yvonne stepped in, the gangsters looked at them with strange eyes, as if they were seeing a rabbit walking into a fox’s den.“Hey, Pretty. Is there anything that I can help with?”“We are very professional in everything we do!”A bald gangster walked out with a strange smile, looking like he was about to lay his hands on Yvonne.But then, a man clad in a Chinese suit not far away approached. In his hands were two steel balls. He slapped the bald gangster and barked, “Rubbish! You are really senseless!”“Can’t you see that this
Mike blew out a cloud of thick smoke. He feigned surprise and exclaimed, “Miss Xavier! Are you telling me that your mother is missing?”“She’s a bigwig from the Smith family. If she truly went missing, you should’ve reported it to the police!”“I’m afraid it’s not right for you to come to me about her disappearance. After all, my shop deals with Chinese herbal medicine. It’s not a private detective agency, right?”There was a burst of mocking laughter from all around after these words were said.Yvonne said coldly, “Mike, is it necessary for you to speak that way?”“Whether my mother is in the Seifudo Building or not, you know best.”“You should hand her over before I lose my temper. Then, we’re clear!”“If you don’t, I’ll report you to the police. By then, everything would be too late!”Yvonne took out her phone as she spoke. She pressed three numbers, getting ready to dial it at any time, her face cold. Mike shrugged his shoulders at this display. He said indifferently, “If
Yvonne was indifferent. “Harvey could handle this himself. He doesn’t need anyone’s help.”“Doesn’t need…?!”“You’re being absurd!”“Harvey’s just an outsider! What could he handle?”“Just wait! He’d get beaten to death!”Hazel was infuriated. She had long forgotten how both her and Harvey’s families had known each other for generations.Even if Harvey was beaten to death at this moment, it had nothing to do with her.Yvonne didn’t speak. Instead, she just looked at Harvey with slight worry.She couldn’t understand what Harvey was trying to do. Could he save her mother by just making a random move in Seifudo?Yvonne had always trusted Harvey, but she was also a little puzzled by his current actions.“Stop! You actually act outside the law in broad daylight!”An inspector took out the short-handle firearm from his waist, about to give a warning shot. However, Harvey grabbed the firearm the moment the inspector took it out.“Go!”A group of gangsters rushed out at this very
One of the big bosses from the streets of Mordu was standing with red and swollen cheeks. His face had become hideous and distorted.A group of onlooking girls was all in a trance.So arrogant and domineering!They hadn’t seen such a man in a long time.He was reckless even when facing a powerful man like Mike Taylor. This was a true man!When an ordinary man encountered such a situation, the stronger ones would say good things and make use of a backer, mainly to protect his reputation.Weaker ones would mostly kneel immediately and were eager to beg for mercy.Thus, such a man was very rare in the world!Although Hazel was also shocked, she was clearly rather unhappy in her heart.She felt that Garry should be only the one who could suppress the crowd like this.What right did a country bumpkin like Harvey have to act pretentiously and steal the limelight?“Harvey! If you keep acting like this, you’ll be messing around with Mike and the Mordu Police!”“Could you bear such
Arrogant!Domineering!Crazy!Ruthless!Calm down!Various thoughts ran in Mike’s mind. His breathing quickened, and his chest fluctuated up and down rapidly.However, he didn’t dare to continue provoking Harvey, no matter what.He felt extremely aggrieved.If all three thousand disciples of Seifudo really took action, he was convinced that he would have many ways to end Harvey.Yet here he was, held hostage by Harvey. with a firearm against his forehead. He couldn’t use any of his skills or flaunt his power at all. He was so upset, he almost vomited blood.If he, a famed tyrant of the streets of Mordu ended up dying in the hands of a nobody, then he wouldn’t feel at ease even if he did come back as a ghost.Harvey sighed and said indifferently, “I’m an impatient person. I’ll give you another three seconds. If you refuse to let Mrs. Smith go, then I’ll end you now.”Yvonne was slightly startled at how the events were unfolding.She understood that Harvey’s purpose of comin
Inside the Mordu Central Police Station, the interrogation room.Harvey watched the news report on television nonchalantly.The news reported a horrible kidnapping incident that took place in the afternoon. Seifudo, an organization that appeared decent and upright on the surface, was actually involved in the kidnapping of a young lady from the renowned Smiths, one of the top ten rated families in Mordu!The kidnapper’s identity remained unknown, but Seifudo’s premises had been completely seized by the authorities.The mastermind, Mike, was also thrown behind bars.As Harvey continued watching the report, he took a leisurely sip of his tea.He threw a smile at Otis Kye, who was standing next to him. “I’ll leave it up to you again, Chief Inspector Kye.”Otis chuckled bitterly in response.“Not at all. You’ve done a great deed in standing up for what’s right and rescuing Lady Smith.”“On top of what you’ve done before, I really must request a commendation for you.”“But if you’r
“Your seemingly reckless acts have actually guaranteed Lady Smith’s safety. At the same time, your enemy has one less way of keeping you in check.”“Calling it a masterful plan isn’t very far-fetched, is it?”Harvey smiled, but did not give any straight answers. “You’re too kind.”“Other than that, I do suspect you have another goal in mind…” Otis continued to say.“Oh?”Harvey was curious as to how much Otis had deducted.“Sir York, I think you’re acting rashly on purpose to confuse the mastermind behind this incident.”“If this incident led the enemy into misjudging your true character, then they will expose their flaws once they take action against you. A small discrepancy can lead to a great error, after all.”“At least, from your perspective, everything that happened today went just as you planned. Am I correct?”Otis’s face was filled with deep admiration, as if he had seen through Harvey’s plans.Once again, Harvey smiled without giving Otis any response. “As expec
Garry frowned slightly, silent. It was true that he gave his cousin Kristan a call. He also said publicly that he would lend Harvey a hand.Despite all that, he didn’t expect Harvey to come out of detainment so soon.Garry did not speak at the moment. He was sizing up Harvey, trying to figure out what trick Harvey had up his sleeve.“Are you alright, CEO York?”Yvonne let out a huge sigh.After the incident had come to pass, Michelle was now showing Harvey a look of deep regret. “Oh, Harvey. I’ve completely misunderstood you before! I must give you my sincerest thanks for what you did today.”Harvey nodded and smiled.“It’s no big deal, really. Since the situation’s escalated to this point, I don’t think anyone dares cause you trouble for the time being.”“I promise, you’ll be able to go back to the Smith family without any worries.”At Harvey’s words, Michelle froze and fell silent.However, the influencers tagging along Hazel exploded in rage.“What’s with that attitud
