Suddenly, the loud blaring of trumpets could be heard all over the place.Thousands of people showed up on the streets soon after.They were grouped up in fours, and were carrying bright red coffins. Some were in charge of mourning, as if they were crying for their family.Aside from that, there were rows of white wreaths set outside the property of the first phase.The same people were headed in the same direction.With all these coffins wreaths and the loud trumpets…It looked to be a massive funeral!The grandiose district turned eerie and ghostly in an instant.The elderly who had brought cash were on the verge of blacking out upon the ghastly sight.Out of everything, they were most terrified of bad luck.Upon seeing so many coffins and the eerie, loud trumpets…Even if they were in a sales office…People who didn’t know would probably think of this place as a large cemetery!“I’ll turn every single one of those houses into graves!”“And because this is such a great
While Scarlett was looking forward to meeting Vince, Fabian had already gone through the Hamilton Residence with Harvey for quite some time.Harvey’s expression grew a touch colder when they arrived at the Hamiltons’ ancestral hall.He made a gesture, motioning Fabian to let the others leave and only let a trustworthy person stay behind.Fabian didn’t know Harvey’s intentions, but he did as told and instructed others to leave. He only lets the butler, Zummo, stay by his side.Zummo was an old man aged more than sixty years old, but he was energetic and looked calm all the way through. It seemed he had once been to the battlefield in his youth.“Young Master York. This is the Hamilton Residence’s butler, Zummo.”“He grew up with me and went through many things with me. I trust him more than my sons.”Fabian introduced Zummo to Harvey. His words were casual, but it was enough to prove Zummo’s high standing within the family.“If you need to do something dangerous, then just tell
“Young Master York! What in the blazes was that?!” Fabian drew in a deep breath, forcing himself to remain calm.Everything that had happened moments ago was beyond his understanding, but he was still this generation’s King of Gambling. Thus, he couldn’t afford to lose his composure and fly into panic. He had to remain calm in the face of any crisis.Harvey had no intention to hide anything and explained, “You’ve lived in the southeast waters for a long time, so you must have heard of Nanyang sorcery.”“This should be heavily related to the Three Demon Monks from Thailand.”“What you just saw is the most sinister form of Nanyang sorcery, which is raising a ghost.”“I assume it was by the Three Demon Monks, for them to use it to kill you and your family.”“However, their plan went astray. They’re doomed to fail after making a move today, so this ghost is useless.”“Raising a ghost makes use of sorcery that requires them to detain the soul of a young child who has just died, and
“Elder Hamilton. If the ghost loses its master, it’ll become restless in at most three days. By that time, many in your family will be killed.”Harvey gave a timely reminder.“I can handle it now, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be able to save them at that time. After all, I’m not a doctor.”“Deal with it. We must deal with it!”Fabian remained silent for approximately three minutes as he pondered over the pros and cons. Finally, he gritted his teeth in determination and exclaimed, “But! Please give me one day, Young Master York. I need to convince the Hamilton elders before I let you do it.”He still had to show his elders some respect, even though he had full authority over all of the Hamiltons.Plus, this matter involved the ever important ancestral hall. If he didn’t inform them about destroying the ancestral hall in advance, a huge storm might follow and the family would fall in flames.Harvey gave him an understanding smile. He waved, motioning the two to walk out of the ances
Yoana ignored Harvey’s gaze and gave an order after the car entered Hong Kong.The personnel from all four levels, gold, silver, copper, and iron, must arrive at Dragon Palace’s branch before ten o’clock. They had to put down any issues at hand, regardless how important it was, and be punctual. However, things went just the way Harvey expected. All thirty-six gold-level personnel acted like they didn’t hear the announcement. Twelve said that they were on a business trip in Las Vegas. Another twelve said that they had duties to do, and the last twelve simply didn’t respond and ignored the fact that Yoana had just taken over the position.Yoana remained indifferent and gave out the order again.She told them that if they didn’t show up at Dragon Palace’s branch before ten o’ clock, then they would never have to show up again.In addition, she would assign others to resume their work and take over their power.If these gold-level personnel dared to reveal any private information
The high-level members of Dragon Palace grew slightly frightened when faced with the full extent of Yoana’s severe gaze. They were displeased about the arrangement, but they knew that Yoana had officially ascended the position, and that their lives were in her hands now.The confidence they had when they joined forces to go against Yoana prior was because they wrongly assumed that this little girl didn’t have any skills.Surely, she wouldn’t dare to command them. She might be overridden in minutes!Contrary to their expectations, Yoana was so powerful that she paid no mind to their positions and pushed through ferociously to have her way.Anyone who dared to disobey her would be fired immediately.Such a resolute style in doing things was absolutely terrifying.Their fears aside, the gold-level personnel still felt a little complacent even as they looked at the youthful Yoana. ‘I’m a gold-level personnel, and I’m closely related with the Yorks of Hong Kong and Las Vegas. I have
In under a minute, all thirty-four gold level personnel stayed.As for whether they yearned for Dragon Palace’s status and salary, or they actually thought that Yoana Mendoza was not going to remain in position for long, was still unknown.Yoana squinted at those people before issuing a new rule for the branch, indifferently.According to law, insurgents would be killed without warning.In Yoana’s eyes, there would be no attachments between people here. Next, she would improve the rules and regulations in Dragon Palace’s Hong Kong and Las Vegas branches. Anyone who crossed the line would be looking for their deaths.The gold level personnel felt immense pressure then. In their eyes, Yoana was really hard to deal with…But they still believed that without all of Dragon Palace’s support, the branch would not survive for long on its own.They figured that Yoana would probably beg Dragon Palace to reclaim the place back in a month’s time…Yoana wasted no time transferring the human
Harvey York’s indifferent reply made Yoana Mendoza take a deep breath.She knew full well of the consequences of her taking position.Other than offending the whole of Dragon Palace, she basically declared war against the number one top talent of Hong Kong and Las Vegas.She would have to pay a great price if she planned to keep her position.Without this opportunity, Yoana would have kept going down her original path…If that were the case, she would have no chance to rise as a distinguished character in the upper social circle in Hong Kong and Las Vegas. The Mendoza family would have stayed as an ordinary first-rate family.When a person or a family wants something, there will always be a price to pay…After seeing a slight change in Yoana’s expression, Harvey thought about the situation and said, “Of course, the Dragon Palace’s branch and the Mendoza family alone wouldn’t be enough to topple the foundations of Hong Kong and Las Vegas.“I’ll figure out a way to get the King o
