"The Ninth-Branch Company?" questioned Harvey. "Looks like my anger has consumed me, and I forgot about this completely. It's fine. We'll settle the score at the same time.""Harvey, I told you. I've moved on!" Mandy exclaimed and bit her lip. "Why must you insist on not letting Hector go? Even if you can't accept it, I'm still the victim, right? Why are you still so fixated with this even when I've stopped fussing over it?"Mandy instinctively thought Harvey was simply jealous of Hector, and it made Mandy a little disappointed in Harvey. If he was obsessed with such a little thing, how could he achieve greatness in the future?"What happened to the Ninth-Branch Company is something minor to me right now. But since you've moved on, then we'll move on," said Harvey nonchalantly. "However, the score I'm here to settle is regarding something else."Then, Harvey raised his voice so that everyone in the hall could hear him. "Last night, an assassin called Number Seven had mixed into the
"Have you considered the consequences of framing me without having any evidence?" Hector sneered at Harvey."Do you know that my lawyers can make you get locked behind bars for a couple of years just for defaming me like that? But you're also pathetic. You realize that not only am I getting closer to Mandy, but I can also easily give her enough help and save her company."You're scared that she's becoming grateful to me. You're envious that our relationship is getting stronger. You're jealous and hate every moment of us being together. That was why you framed me for everything that had happened to you."In truth, other than proving your weaknesses and worthlessness, you have proven nothing. You are nothing but a piece of garbage!"After finishing his little speech, Hector gave Mandy a warm smile and said, "A piece of garbage like him didn't even have the right to become your live-in husband. Kicking him out of your family is the wisest decision you have made in your life. Cut off p
When Hector saw that Harvey refused to back down and even sneered at him, the anger on Hector's face also seemed obvious.Just when he was going to wave his hand and get security to throw Harvey out of the hall, an indifferent and vicious voice was heard. "Since when has the reputation of the Wright family fallen so low? It's so rare for me to organize such an event, and someone's here to cause a commotion."I knew it. If you don't show your strength, others will simply think you're nothing…" Everyone's expression turned serious when they heard the voice. There was nothing but respect. Obviously, the person who said that was of very high status, and no one could afford to cross him.Shortly after, all the entrances leading into the hall were kicked open, and a group of muscular men walked in. All of them showed their gun ownership permits to everyone before pulling out the firearms from their holsters and unlocking the safety. Then, they aimed their weapons at Harvey.While anyone
Mabon was not showing any respect to Mandy at all. Every word he said cut right into Mandy's heart. Not only did he want to humiliate Mandy, but he also wanted Mandy to pay for this.Before Mandy could even reply, Harvey had already waved his hand at her before glaring at Mabon coldly. "I don't care where you're from, kid. But I suggest you go back to wherever you came from. Only then will you still have your limbs so you can still dance in the future."Otherwise, I don't know what will happen if I get angry later. Also, the person looking for Hector is me, Harvey York. I will take full responsibility for my own actions. Do you want to drag a woman into something like this? Even if you're not shamed by this, I do!"Now… I don't care if you're the scion of the Wright family or the leader of a branch. Go sit in the corner and play with your phone or something. Otherwise, don't say I never gave your family any chances. Since no one will be able to stop me no matter how much respect the
Instantly, the situation in the hall became intense. The scent of gunpowder seemed to waft in the air, and the atmosphere was making the crowd feel very stuffy.Mandy's face instantly turned pale when she looked at the hundreds of muzzles.She knew Harvey could fight well, but time had changed.He was a great fighter, but could he have any advantage when facing so many weapons simultaneously, regardless of your strength?Even if he could block their first wave of attacks, could he block it a second time? A third time?Mandy quickly walked in front and shielded Harvey, saying, "Mr. Mabon, this is Wolsing, after all. If you do use firearms, it won't be good for any of us. We can talk this through!"Mabon scoffed. "Mandy, you're at the bottom tier of the Jean family's hierarchy of power. You're from the weakest of all the branches and someone the Jean family could abandon at any time. Do you really think you're that influential?"Not to mention that the companies here all have some
When Mandy heard what Harvey said, she was stunned. She had not felt how domineering Harvey could be for quite some time."Mandy, this is where you should step back. Let the men handle business. You should just watch from the sideline. Even if you're not embarrassed, I feel ashamed for allowing a woman to shield me," Harvey had already let go of Mabon's wrist and extended his hand, pushing Mandy behind him.Mandy wanted to say something, but in the end kept mum as she sighed.It was just as Harvey had said. The only one who would be humiliated was Harvey if she continued to interfere in this."Ha… How touching, how shameless you two are!" exclaimed Mabon as he gingerly flicked his hand, his expression turning colder by the second. "This is the first time someone has humiliated me and gone against me since the day I joined society."How daring. What a badass you are. Someone as badass as you… Have no place in Wolsing!"Harvey answered calmly, "Stop wasting your breath, Mabon. Seei
"It's not that you've gone soft," replied Harvey softly. "It's because none of it is threatening other than your tongue. Not to mention, with just one call, you wouldn't even dare to be so tough anymore. Instead, you will fall on your knees immediately."Mabon was sneering after hearing what Harvey said. "Fall on my knees after one call? I'm not that easily spooked. I refuse to believe there's anyone in Wolsing who can make me kneel after one call."Harvey calmly pulled out his phone and dialed a number before tossing it to Mabon. "Ask her, then. Can she make you kneel?"Mabon instinctively caught the mobile, and from the corner of his eye, there was a hint of disbelief in his eyes. "Princess Wright? How did you get her number?"Everyone's expression froze, and the crowd's murmur stopped when they heard him calling out Princess Wright.Everyone knew that Sienna was the only one at the same level as Emery in the Wright family. Mabon was quite impressive in his own right, but he was
"I know you didn't like any of this, and I know you're upset," said Harvey as he patted Mabon on his cheek. "Come and bite me, then."Harvey's words were soft but sounded so arrogant. However, his words were enough to make Mabon unable to fight back at all.Mabon's face was flushed red. He did not know how to answer that despite the bitterness he was feeling inside. If he were to continue crossing Harvey, he would be the one who had a death wish. If he took a step back, he would be the one humiliated.He had no other choice but to keep silent. However, he forgot one thing when he made that decision. Silence itself was an attitude at times.Everyone had a strange expression when they saw Mabon gritted his teeth and had to submit. They never expected a call made by Harvey to be enough to make someone like Mabon shut up. As for the men from the Wright family holding their weapons, they all stood down as they exchanged a look among themselves."Looks like this call is quite effective,
