Lennon Surrey glanced at the supposed evidence before showing a horrible expression.Conrad Surrey’s evidence had almost a hundred years’ worth of the family’s history, with additional proof to back everything up.Simply put, it would be almost impossible for them to explain everything.After realizing that, Lennon, Ernie, and Aria Surrey’s hearts sank to the bottom.“You were a part of the family too, Conrad. You should know the family doesn’t have all that…” said Lennon.“You were the one who brought the Six-Eyed Bead here.”“Who said that’s the case?”Conrad threw a few pictures on the table.Harvey instinctively glanced over before seeing pictures of a few Eyed Beads inside the Surrey family’s residence.The people familiar with the family would be able to discern despite the picture only showing what was indoors.“Truth becomes fiction…“When fiction becomes true.Conrad smiled.“Tell me, if I held a press conference informing everyone that half of the beads everyone

“You’re shameless! How dare you side with the outskirts’ greatest traitor?!Ernie Surrey showed a horrible look.“Don’t you know that his disciple, Creed, came here to cause trouble?! He won’t be going back anymore!”“Of course, I know that!Conrad Surrey shrugged.“Without this, I probably wouldn’t be able to come back!“But I’m different!“He’s just a brainless brute!“But I use this…”Conrad tapped his head.He smiled as soon as he saw the Surrey family completely enraged.“I’m giving you one day, old man.“I want to see every asset liquidated and transferred to me.“Right. I’ll also be having the One-Eyed Bead and the Nine-Eyed Bead.“I do hope you can convince Sir York here.“After all, a man’s wealth is his own ruin.”Conrad waved his hand before turning around with his entourage.Compared to Asher Klein, his dominance was through the roof.The Surrey family looked at each other with stern expressions.Judging from Conrad’s way of doing things, he’d definitely

“Aaagh!”Conrad Surrey screamed in pain when he stumbled back.His face was completely red when his body trembled. His gaze was filled with disbelief as he glared at Harvey York.After making such a strong comeback, he did not expect to suffer such a significant loss despite having the knowledge to use against the Surrey family.‘I got hit by that scrawny man?‘I have such a strong background, I have such an immense identity, and he still slapped me?Soon after, Conrad came to his senses as he gritted his teeth.“How dare you lay your fingers on me, you little bastard?!“Don’t you know that…”Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm forward, slapping Conrad to the ground. He could not be bothered to speak reason with Conrad any longer.“So what if I lay my hand on you?“Can’t I do that?”“Come! Kill him right now!”Conrad was utterly enraged. He came all the way here just to show off…And yet, he was completely disrespected.This was simply unbelievable.He only wanted

After hearing all of Conrad Surrey’s remarks…And that this was the Surrey family’s business…The captain instantly frowned.There were too many people involved.The four great tribes had already muddied the waters enough. Along with the green card…Anyone would be in deep trouble if they got themselves involved.“Everyone residing in the country will abide by its laws.“No matter who you are, you have no choice but to obey.”Harvey York casually pointed at Conrad.“This man came out of nowhere and threatened me to hand over the bead I purchased through an auction! It costs 1.3 billion dollars, you know!“I started talking back before these people pulled out their firearms, preparing to pull the trigger!“I’m so scared right now!“If I didn’t behave properly, I would’ve been gunned down at this point!“Please! Do what you must! Uphold justice, for my sake!Harvey smirked while he casually shifted blame toward Conrad and his men.“I suspect they’re involved with forces wh

An hour later, Harvey York left the police station unscathed.Without him using his connections with Dutch Cobb, the Surrey family had already hired a few prominent lawyers from the outskirts to take care of the situation.Harvey slapped Conrad Surrey in the face but did not hurt much despite the extremely humiliating action. Conrad simply did not have enough proof to sue Harvey in the first place.That said, not only did Conrad intrude on the Surrey family’s residence, he even brought illegal firearms inside. Under these circumstances, the situation must be dealt with slowly but surely.If not, Conrad and the others would need to be sent behind bars for a few years.“I didn’t think you’d get dragged into the Surrey family’s business, Harvey…”Harvey walked out the front door before the Surrey family quickly came over.Lennon Surrey nodded at Harvey with a strange look.“You really are impressive, but Conrad doesn’t have any decency. He will do everything he can to get what he

On the next day of Conrad Surrey’s detainment.A door was pushed open in the side hall of Aenar Temple before Miley Surrey stepped inside.Stefan Augustus made a gesture while reading a scripture. When finally done, he raised his head to look at Miley.“Something wrong?”Miley’s beautiful face was showing an odd expression before letting out a sigh.“We were late, Mr. Stefan.“Last night, Conrad came all the way here, threatening the Surrey family to grant him full authority…“Harvey tricked him into forty-eight-hour detainment at the police station. The American Embassy can only bail him out after that.”Stefan paused before frowning.“When did the Surrey family’s business have anything to do with Harvey?“Who does he think he is to get involved like that?“He might as well deal with the entire outskirts’ business at this point.”“It’s probably just a coincidence Harvey got involved this time.Naturally, Miley had her sources planted in the Surrey family to be in the know

Miley Surrey heaved a sigh.“Lennon wanted that at first, but Harvey refused.“He’s probably trained so hard he forgot he had a brain!“He previously fought you for the One-Eyed Bead, and now he’s refusing to get the beads right before him!”“You oversimplify things.”“Harvey knows he’d be everyone’s target if he acquires those beads.“After all, him having the One-Eyed Bead is already public knowledge.“If he gets another three, then he’d have collected half of the Nine-Eyed Beads.“He’d be the one who gets the most attention that way.“Since a huge battle is about to occur, being everyone’s target surely isn’t the wisest choice.”Miley paused.“That bastard!“I thought he was brainless, but I sure underestimated him.”“Not quite. You’re simply still in denial after suffering losses against him.Stefan stood up before slowly playing with his string of ivory-carved beads.“At this point, I’ve confirmed that his identity is most likely fake.“As for who he actually is, m

Miley Surrey instinctively shivered after hearing Stefan Augustus’ words.She realized all the upperclassmen had profound meaning in their words.She thought Stefan was being too reckless previously, but she had not expected that he was only faking a persona.It was a shame that Harvey York was no ordinary person either.“If that’s the case, how should we proceed?Miley gazed sternly.“Are we just going to watch as the three beads are sent to the Aenar Temple?“It’d be no different than us accepting nukes.”Miley’s head started to spin.She would naturally be willing to accept the beads before. After all, this was her true goal for trying to take over the Surrey family in the first place.But times had changed. With Conrad Surrey making such a strong comeback using his identity as an American…The beads were definitely no good to have.At least, all sorts of influential figures had come just for the Nine-Eyed Beads.Whoever obtained half of those beads first would be invit
