Matthew crossed his arms and approached Harvey. He snarled icily, “Young man.”“Beating Hiroshi means that you’re a pretty decent fighter.”“Shame this is Hong Kong and not Country H.”“You better tell me what family you’re from, or what kind of power you possess.”“I’m really curious as to what gave you courage to show off in a place like Hong Kong!”“And I can tell you for sure that you’re a dead man, no matter who’s supporting you!”“It’s a shame, but there’s no other way. Us from Hong Kong like to preserve our reputation. We can’t accept some random man from Country H flaunting in front of us!”“We can’t embarrass ourselves, after all!”Harvey calmly sipped his wine, smiling, as if there was nothing to fear. “Such domineering aura, Young Master Flynn! Truly majestic.”“But if you stand up for Denver without discerning who’s right or wrong, aren’t you afraid of bumping into someone way more powerful than you?”Matthew thought that Harvey’s voice seemed familiar, but he d
“Small world indeed, Young Master Flynn.”“I’m sure it’s fate for us to meet here. You should have a drink.”Harvey set the nearly full bottle of Louis XIII, smiling warmly.“If you drink all this, I’ll let you off the hook.”Harvey raised his glass and poured the wine to the ground, staining the floor.He glanced at Matthew, still smiling. The crowd was dumbfounded at the sight.It was their first time seeing someone acting this arrogantly before Matthew.‘What does he mean, he’ll let Young Master Flynn off the hook if he drinks all of it?’If Matthew’s actions were considered arrogant, what Harvey did was flat out condescending!Sister Thirteen and the others glared coldly at Harvey, but none of them heard how Matthew had addressed Harvey. They didn’t expect Harvey to say such a thing to Matthew.This was Matthew Flynn, after all!One of the Four Masters of Hong Kong, and the successor of the Flynn family!Even the first-in-command of Hong Kong would have to pay respect
Denver looked as if he had taken a bite out of a bitter gourd. He was speechless, unable to say a single word.Sister Thirteen’s expression was entertaining as well. Her mouth was completely wide-open, her jaw hung so low it threatened to drop on the floor.Hiroshi even forgot to stand up. He couldn’t believe his eyes.“Young Master Flynn was forced to drink?”The Louis XIII bottle was almost full. There was about sixteen ounces of liquid in it, yet Matthew downed the whole bottle without any hesitation.On top of it all, Harvey was being condescending about the whole situation. Everyone felt resentful, unable to accept that fact.None of them were complete buffoons. While they couldn’t figure out why, they could understand that Matthew feared the man in front of him, and that Harvey was not to be provoked.Guh!Soon, Matthew was on the verge of throwing up after downing the entire bottle.He was a good drinker, but drinking so much had his head spinning quite a bit.But sinc
Slap!Before Denver could continue talking, Matthew’s eyes twitched frantically and he moved his hands to the side. In just a moment, he swung his hand on Denver’s face and sent Denver rolling on the ground.Immediately, he followed up by lifting Denver roughly from the ground and slapping Denver multiple times. Slap!“Are you blind, Denver?! Don’t you recognize South Light’s Prince York?!”Slap!“Do you only know how to bully people and stir up trouble?! Do you think you’re God?!”Slap!“If you keep offending Prince York, even if he decides to let you off the hook, I can’t do the same!”Matthew’s slaps were utterly ruthless; Denver’s face was completely swollen, and some of his teeth had fallen off after enduring a barrage of slaps.But the sharp pain on Denver’s face was nothing when he heard Matthew’s claim. At that instant, he could feel his life flash before his eyes.“S-South Light’s Prince York?!”Hong Kong, Las Vegas, and South Light were only an ocean apart. News
Matthew’s eyes twitched again at Harvey’s calm words.Harvey’s words were deceptively simple, but they had completely revealed Matthew’s thoughts.Denver, who was wailing on the ground, wouldn’t think much about the matter. However, the legendary King of Gambling would surely think twice if he were to catch wind of this.Alas, Matthew was trying to get the Hamilton family to do his dirty work!If that were to happen…Matthew’s eyes went haywire as panic rose inside him. Right now, he knew he was going against someone way above his league.“You should know what’s best for you, Young Master Flynn.”“I think the King of Gambling himself will talk to you real soon.”Matthew quickly changed his expression, at loss for words from sheer fear. He could only stare blankly at the ground, too terrified to think anything else.He had been humiliated utterly and thoroughly. He knew trouble would come back to bite him sooner or later.“Alright, get these people out of here. Let Sister Thir
“Everything seems to be fine after I went to Las Vegas and Hong Kong, but now, we’ve gathered one important piece of information…”“These people would come for my close ones just to kill me.”“Right now, Mandy’s their best target.”“I need to give them the wrong impression. They need to know that I’m scared.”“They’ll start to think that I was forced to divorce Mandy. They’ll even think that there’s a huge gap between us after what happened in Las Vegas and Hong Kong. I’m sure everyone who’s targeting me will be very happy to hear this, no?”“Only then will the cracks in Las Vegas and Hong Kong start to show…”Tyson froze.“I get it now. But, about Mordu…” Tyson began quietly.“Give Ethan a call. Tell me that he’s in charge of the Zimmer family’s safety.”“He’s a God of War. He should be able to deal with something this small,” Harvey explained.“Another thing. Get me a visiting card.”“I’ll go see Las Vegas’ first-in-command, Paul Mendoza himself, tomorrow.”…Twelve at m
The square-faced man tapped Lilian’s face lightly, grinning. “Interesting. We thought you were just some brain-dead woman, but it looks like you do have some insight after all. At least, I’m a little moved by your words.”“It’s a shame that neither you nor I get to decide whether you live or die...”Lilian’s body trembled in fright.“Please, sir! Be the bigger person and let me go!”“H-how about this? I have another few hundred million dollars worth of private money. I’ll split half of it with you!”The man with a square face didn’t respond. He stood up and chuckled coldly, and then dialed a number on his phone.“We found Lilian, Master York. She’s still alive.”“Looks like the Briewood Gang kept her alive for ransom.”“What should we do next? According to my intel, that man’s already interrogated Sister Thirteen overnight. He’ll be here soon.”“Why don’t we set things up here and give him a big surprise?”“Kill her.”A frosty tone sounded from the other side of the phone.
‘Is he even human?!’‘He’s already this good of a fighter at such a young age. It’s terrifying!’The square-faced man found himself terrified to the bones.No wonder his superior wanted him to be careful when going against Harvey York! If he missed his chance, he would’ve had no way out of the situation.Everything right now was too terrifying for him!This was The square-faced man’s evaluation of Harvey.But before he could say anything, Harvey kicked down another man who had rushed toward him.Other than Lilian, there were only four men left standing behind the square-faced man.“You’re pretty impressive, Harvey!” he said, sizing up Harvey.“I’ll admit that I’m not your opponent.”“But your end is already set in stone!”The square-faced man took a few steps back, then pulled Lilian up before removing her blindfold.“Break your arms and leave, Sir York! If not, I’ll end her life right now!” he exclaimed furiously.Lilian immediately came to her senses after her blindfold
