“You puny ant! That’s pretty brave of you!”Leroy sized Harvey York up. “Looks like you’re old Shawn’s family, huh?”“Shawn Bell, to think you have the guts to call someone over to hit one of my brothers!”“I can make you regret being born anytime I like!”“Let’s see how I’ll torture you two old hags!”Leroy threatened the old couple right in front of Harvey.He gave off such an intimidating air that Shawn and his wife were horrified to death. They begged immediately, “Brother Leroy! My nephew didn’t understand the rules of this place!”“Didn’t you want money? I still have some wood from the coffin. I’ll give you all of them, so please forgive him!”“I’ll eat leaves every day from now on to save up money for you!”“Forgive him?” Leroy sneered. “I can do that.”“In exchange, I want this girl to play with me for a while. Then you have to pay us a hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the medical expenses. Lastly, I want his arm broken. Only then I’ll forget about everything!”
Chapter 586
The crowd of powerful men parted to open a path for two people to pass through.Tyson Woods walked at the front, with Old Niner following behind.“That’s the new rising gangster, Brother Tyson! And isn’t that Old Niner? Master Niner?”Leroy was part of the street gangs. Although he could not be considered as an influential figure, he was vigilant and was very clear about the situation on the streets.Therefore, he knew most of the big shots that ruled the streets.From Tyson and Old Niner’s point of view, a small fry like Leroy was at best a little brother. No, they might not even acknowledge him as one.“Brother Tyson, Master Niner! What brings you here?!”“It’s such an honor!”Leroy quickly said, bending over to show respect.However, neither Tyson nor Old Niner cared about him.They walked into the small courtyard and then bowed in Harvey’s direction. “Master York, what can I do for you?”“What… what…”Leroy and his followers became dumbfounded. The scene before them was
Chapter 587
“Is it true?” Shawn Bell and his wife were both emotional. “You found out who killed our William?” They were able to endure a hard time these past three years in hopes that they could one day avenge their late son.Now that their suffering was over, there was hope for revenge.If Harvey said this before, they might not have believed him.However, the scene just now instilled in them a newfound confidence in Harvey.“Uncle, Auntie, please stand up. From now on, I’ll treat you as my own parents.”“Let’s go. We’ll move out tonight and live in another place.”Soon after, Harvey left the slum with Shawn and his wife.When they exited the hut, the laneway was extremely clean. There were no traces of any scuffle whatsoever.Tyson and the rest had disappeared, as if they were never around in the first place.When Harvey and the elderly couple reached the middle of the lane, a wooden door to another house opened. A scantily clad woman with thick makeup came out. She kneeled in front

The man sitting opposite Tara Lewis was Frank Zummo. He built up his own business and started a small company, and currently had a net worth of millions. He had even bought several villas; one in the city center, one in the suburbs, and another one on the beach.Such a man was the definition of a successful person. Naturally, Tara’s parents were extremely pleased with him.They looked at him as if they were looking at their son-in-law. The more they gazed at him, the more satisfied they became.As for Frank, he knew he wanted Tara the moment he laid his eyes on her.Tara was not only incredibly beautiful, but also had a gorgeous body and plenty of useful connections.Marrying such a woman would be a great boost to his career.Frank felt that he overpowered Tara in every aspect of their careers. He knew she was well within his reach.Frank’s parents shared his sentiments. After all, their son was nothing short of amazing.“Old Man Lewis, if you think it’s okay, then let’s settle

Even Tara Lewis was just as stunned.She never thought that Harvey would be so anxious to come find her straight away.“Who are you? What are you doing here? Don’t you know where this is? Are you trying to make trouble?”Frank Zummo couldn’t help but yell in anger.He just had to say a few more sentences to bring Tara down. Yet, this guy came out of nowhere and instantly spoiled his plan.He wasn’t sure when such a good opportunity would come again.Right now, he wanted nothing more than to choke Harvey to death.Tara’s parents stared at Harvey curiously and asked, “Dear, who is this? Why does he look familiar?”Tara replied helplessly, “Father, Mother, this is Harvey.”Tara’s father’s expression changed drastically. “What? Harvey? Your college classmate? What is he doing here? How did you get in touch with him?”“He… we participated in the class gathering before.” Tara explained. “Naturally, we got in touch.” Frank’s father thundered with a darkened face, “Old Man Lewis, w

“Yes.” Harvey nodded. “A quiet, comfortable and safe house. Most importantly, the facilities must be perfect.”Tara Lewis understood that Harvey York wanted to buy a villa. Otherwise, he could have simply bought another house in the Gardens Residence. After all, it was the best community in Buckwood.“Well, our company has the type of villa you want.” Tara said quickly. “I’ll show it to you.” She then turned around and said, “Uncle, aunt. I’m sorry about today. I have to deal with my classmate’s request first. Let’s meet again next time.”She was initially against this marriage because she felt that it was too soon. Harvey came at the right time, giving her an excuse to get away.Looking at it in this way, she was quite grateful to Harvey.Tara’s parents stood up as well and said, “Let’s do this. Since everyone has almost finished eating, let’s take a look at your working environment. How about it?”Although Tara was against this marriage, her parents were impatient and wanted

Everyone was stunned into shock.They shot Harvey York and Tara Lewis looks of disbelief.“Buy…buy a villa…?” Frank’s voice was trembling.“Yes! Buying a villa.” Tara said bluntly. “If you want an ordinary house or a large apartment, the Gardens Residence will have it.” Frank was quite baffled. His assets weren’t enough to buy a house in the Gardens Residence, even the smallest one.Let alone a villa in the Gardens Residence!None of the villas on sale were under sixteen million dollars.Frank’s father suddenly burst out in laughter. “Young man, you’re doing great business! You must have received a lot of commissions and rebates from buying a villa for someone, am I right?”Harvey was just an intermediary in Old Man Zummo’s eyes.“Hehehe, seems we’ve underestimated you. No wonder you’re so eager to find Tara. This big of an order should have a commission of tens of thousands, correct?”Frank quickly regained his senses and mocked Harvey.Truthfully, he was still a little en
Chapter 592
Harvey did not even ask about the price.Shawn Bell and his wife were his best friend’s parents. He must give them the best of the best, and nothing less.It was just a villa. It was nothing much.For Harvey, this was just part of his everyday life.However, Frank Zummo and his father took in the scene in utter shock.They thought the treatment Harvey received was just random luck, and that Harvey was just pretending to be rich.Nonetheless, now they could see that Harvey was truly rich.He didn’t need to ask the price when he bought the villa. He treated it as if it was a mere cabbage from a roadside stall!Thinking of their cynicism against Harvey previously, they flushed in embarrassment.Perhaps in Harvey’s eyes, they looked like complete clowns.“Mr. York, this way.” Wilson Carter said diligently. “Do you want to have a look at the drawings first?”Harvey thought for a brief moment and ultimately decided that he should have a look. At the very least, he should know abou
