The Malone family were frozen on the spot, stunned beyond belief.Unspeakable regret suddenly surged in their heart, crashing on them like a great tidal wave as they watched Harvey calmly entering the stage.Harvey…A grassroot in business who came to them for help, a useless live-in son-in-law, a fool who relied on them to survive in Mordu. Or so they thought. And then there was the branch leader of Longmen, Mordu, Branch Leader York.A powerful man who could do as he pleased, with impressive combat prowess second to none! How could such two different people end up being the same person?!Never in their wildest dreams could the Malones imagine this. No matter how much they tried, they couldn’t link these two personas together. It was inconceivable.Yet, reality had made a big joke out of them!The Harvey that they constantly looked down turned out to be Branch Leader York, who was admired by thousands and thousands of people.The impact from this revelation was too much fo
Hazel was stunned for a short moment, failing to understand what her mother meant.Seeing her daughter’s confused look, June then explained softly, “Have you heard of Oliver Bauer, the former branch leader of the branch of Mordu’s Longmen?”“He’s a man with incredible power and influence!”“But, in the end? I heard that he was hacked to death when he was in Buckwood! His grave’s already filled with wild grass now, don’t you know?”“Stop thinking that Harvey’s very powerful. Since he’s holding the position of branch leader, it also means that he’ll be facing a lot of danger!”“He’s above us now, but soon, we might be the ones climbing higher than him!”“We’re already in Mordu’s upper circle! Since Harvey’s just entered all of a sudden, I’m pretty sure he’ll have problems gaining a foothold in the upper circle!”“One more thing, Hazel! Currently, you are the number one influencer on Durin!”“You might become a major star within a year and a half, at most!”“When that happens, yo
June grew anxious when she saw Kelly’s face. She hurriedly asked, “Kelly, what do you mean by not being selected?”“Oh, it’s very simple.”Before Kelly could answer, Eugene Bowie’s slightly mocking voice sounded from the table next to them. He threw Kelly a derisive half-smile, narrowing his eyes slightly.“Your family has nothing to do with the branch leader anymore. Thus, your privilege to do business with Longmen has also been revoked.”“After all, everything could only be done according to the proper rules and procedures.”“Many people desire to cooperate with the Mordu’s Longmen. If you don’t have the capacity to compete with everyone else, it’s only expected for you to lose.”This statement caused Kelly’s face to change. Flabbergasted, he asked, “W-what do you mean?”“I can do big business because of my abilities! What does any of it have to do with Harvey?!”Eugene picked up a glass of wine and took a casual sip. He then said indifferently, “Kelly Malone. In the last mon
Before Hazel could come to her senses, her phone suddenly rang.She saw that the call was from the Durin company, and so answered in a hurry. “Pardon me, Miss Malone. I’m from the Durin company.”A freezing cold voice greeted Hazel from the other side of the phone.“On behalf of the company, I’m here to explain two things to you.”“Firstly, the contract we were negotiating was canceled. The company is not going to continue to support you. As we haven’t signed a formal contract yet, the company doesn’t need to compensate you. We will cancel your account within three days, so please be ready for it.”“Secondly, the 7.6 million dollars our CEO gave you under the account ‘Mr. Tycoon’ in order to boost your popularity before has been officially withdrawn.”Hazel trembled at this shocking revelation. “What? You won’t sign a contract with me?”“You’re going to retrieve all the tips?!”“Why?!”“Didn’t you say that I’m quite promising?”“Don’t forget, I’m number one on Durin's infl
Eugene was passing this message on behalf of Harvey. This also indicated that Harvey had decided to completely cut ties with the Malone family.After all, they were the ones who took the initiative to cut ties with Harvey earlier this afternoon.Harvey not trampling on the Malone family was already an act of incredible kindness.He only wanted to retrieve the resources he used to support them in the past, and didn’t deliberately do anything to humiliate the Malone family. This was already a big favor.As for how the Malones would end up after losing their resources, that matter had nothing to do with Harvey.After all, they were adults. Adults must always pay the price for their choices.On the high platform, Harvey began to toast to the high-level members of the branch of Mordu’s Longmen after saying a few words. He was accompanied by Rachel and Aiden.For Harvey, who was truly a good drinker, this was trivial.He didn’t pay much attention to the affairs of Longmen’s Mordu bra
The man who led the group exuded an extraordinary, imposing aura. He had a disdainful look on his face, and seemed to enjoy looking down on others.Beside him was a woman with a beautiful face, though her expression was extremely cold.Another two men and two women stood behind him, adding up to a total of six people.Yet, all of them carried an aura that could easily overwhelm everyone inside the hall.Several Longmen disciples guarding the gate subconsciously stepped forward. Unexpectedly, they were kicked away before they could do anything, and were unable to fight back.Once again, the crowd was shocked. Justin’s face turned ugly. He clapped his hands in the next moment and ordered, “Get them!”Following his order, more than a dozen of his direct descendants leapt forward. All of them went all out.‘Bang, bang, bang!’But one man among the six stepped forward and confronted them with ease.With just some kicks and punches, they were sent flying in an instant!Some spurt
The words “Longmen’s Law Enforcement” certainly gave everyone great fear. Most of the Longmen disciples dared not move.However, Rachel, Aiden, and other loyalists were very clear that no matter how things would develop today, they must go down this road together with Harvey.If Harvey was finished, so were they.“Give an explanation?”The beautiful woman next to Jupiter drawled coldly, scoffing.“Harvey York, I’m afraid you have no idea about the status of Law Enforcement in Longmen.”“We’re supervised by the Master. That makes us above you. We supervise the branch leader!”“We are empowered to act without prior approval!”“This is the Law Enforcement Hall!”“Who are you compared to us? Not to mention, your identity as the branch leader is fake!”“Even if it’s true, you still have to kneel if we, the Law Enforcement, tell you to!”“Listen up, Harvey. I’m Mavis Lowe!”“I’m ordering you one last time. Before I get angry, you’d better cut off your limbs and come with us for f
’Crack!’Harvey stomped on the jade-like badge, crushing it with his foot until it was ground into dust. He then smiled and said softly, “Do you have the right to fight me?”“Especially with such mediocre skills?”Mavis’s rage exploded when she saw that Harvey dared to smash her personal badge. Her face turned ice-cold.“You’re stubborn, Harvey! You certainly have a death wish!”Mavis pulled out a machete from her waist just as she finished her words. She moved, leaping forward into Harvey’s direction.She was extremely fast. Her blade flickering dangerously, exuding an unspeakably frightful presence.Justin cried, “Branch leader, be careful!”‘Slap!’A crisp sound cut the air as Harvey slapped Mavis on the face. An ugly palm print was etched on her pretty face. She was flung into the air by the impact, smashing into a wine table.The table broke the instant her body crashed into it. The food and wine that were on it were sent into a mess, staining Mavis’s white attire. She w
