When Harvey saw that number, he thought it was Rita again. He gave it a thought and picked it up anyway. Before he could say anything, a woman's noble voice came from the other side. "Your number is so hard to find, Harvey! What? You won't even give me a call when you're in Wolsing?"Harvey was stunned when he heard that voice. "Princess Wright?"Even he didn't expect that Sienna would personally call him at a time like this.Sienna smiled. "It's me, but I'm not in Wolsing until recently. I'm back today and I already heard about how you're challenging the Islanders again. You're going to battle at the Apex of the Forbidden City in the full moon. Are you going to do what you did at Flutwell again and humiliate them too?"Harvey smiled. "You must be joking. The Islanders are already humiliating us. As the Country H Martial Arts Alliance's representative, how can I not do anything? Then again, I don't think this will go as planned, because…"Just then, a shrill tone pierced his e
When Rita saw Harvey walking toward him, there was disdain on her face. It wasn't the first time she had met Harvey. However, she now looked at Harvey with even more disdain than the time she saw him back in Buckwood a few years ago.When Harvey was at Buckwood, he was the most powerful man then. While Rita didn't like him, even she had to admit that Harvey had quite the talent.But ever since the so-called number one of Buckwood came to Wolsing, he became just another fish in the ocean. In Wolsing, when scions of powerful families walked around in plain sight, Rita couldn't understand what was so special about Harvey.At this time, the woman with the short hair also noticed Harvey. She glanced at Harvey, and her eyes were instantly filled with scorn. "Don't tell me this is the man from South Light that Yvonne had a relationship with, Rita? Yvonne's taste really is quite something. Does she like someone like this? She's ruining the reputation of a top family like ours."It was ob
Harvey laughed, caring little. He was not interested in women who wanted nothing but power and wealth."What? Cat got your tongue? You don't have a response?" The long-haired woman looked at Harvey with scorn. "Let me warn you! Even if this isn't about Yvonne, Wolsing is not a place where a country bumpkin like you can show yourself. I find it hard to believe how blind Yvonne must be to become your secretary. Even if she wants to experience life, there's no need for her to humiliate herself like this, right?"The long-haired woman shook her head and sighed with a face full of disbelief. It was as if the choice Yvonne made had completely ruined the Xaviers of Wolsing's reputation. As the three women continued to taunt Harvey, a well-dressed waitress came over with a cart. Then, she served each of the women their meal. Even before the dome was opened, a sweet scent was already permeating from under the dome.While the meals inside looked quite simple, they were all very exquisite.
The faces of the long-haired woman and Rita, who had just picked up their forks and were going to have a slice of the fresh Salmon, grew pale. It was obvious that whether Harvey was being intentional or not, it was enough to disgust them.Before they could say anything, the waitress next to Harvey frowned and said, "Sir, the South Ocean Restaurant uses the freshest ingredients. I will have security to ask you to leave for interrupting our business by throwing wild accusations.""That's right!" Rita let out a cold smile when she heard what the waitress had to say. "Do you know who owns this place? It's the Wrights of Wolsing, the leader of the top ten families! While their goods are always known to be pricey, they're all worth it. You must have a death wish to start a ruckus in their territory. You better not tell them you know us when they settle the score with you later!""It's fine. I'm not interested in knowing any of you either way," Harvey said calmly. "The only reason I'm he
When Rita heard what Harvey had to say, her expression darkened and she yelled, "Harvey, can you please stop making things up? I've already given you the note, so can you please give up? What do you want if you keep on yapping?!"Harvey gave Rita a look. "Since you're willing to be here today, I believe you care about her. That's why I want you to tell me the truth. No matter what kind of trouble she's in, I can help her. However, you have to tell me everything."Rita rolled her eyes, her disdain evident. "I'll thank you on Yvonne's behalf, but there's no need to."She was smiling coldly when she said that. The person Yvonne would be marrying was someone very important from the Island Nation. What could a loser like Harvey do before someone so important? It didn't matter if Yvonne was willing to marry this important person. It was something the Xaviers of Wolsing had to do.And this loser from Buckwood wanted to interfere with their family matter? He had to be joking. No matter how
The long-haired woman looked at Harvey disdainfully, as if she had figured out the truth. "That was why you did everything possible to get into the Jean of Mordu. When you realize you can't, you think the Xaviers aren't half bad, too.""Unfortunately, you didn't know just how useless you are. You didn't understand one thing. But sometimes, the more you want things to change, the more it'll stay the same. All of this is but a fool's errand. There are things that you're born with, and if you don't have it, you're already hopeless in your life. So, you should just give up now. Forget about dealing with Yvonne. You can't even deal with your coming problem with South Ocean Restaurant. And your luck is so bad, too, since someone from the Wright family is just around!" The long-haired woman smirked derisively.Not far away, an old man wearing a suit who looked like a manager quickly walked over. From the looks of it, he had been doing this for a long time. Rita also noticed the old man and
The Wright of Wolsing had many daughters, but only one person was bestowed the nickname princess, and that was Sienna—the woman who could stand against Emery Wright within the Wright family. In many people's understanding, when she finally ascended, she would become the queen of the Wright family. It was not an exaggeration to say that she had the highest prestige among all the young ladies within Wolsing.But someone like Sienna was waiting for a country bumpkin like Harvey in Room Number One?How… How was that even possible?Rita narrowed her eyes, her voice slightly shaking. "Mr. Braff… Did you get the wrong person? He's just a country bumpkin from the south. How can he have the right to have breakfast with Princess Wright?"Mr. Braff glanced at Rita and replied coldly, "What? Should our princess ask for your permission before deciding who to have breakfast with? Who do you think you are to meddle in the Wright family's affairs?""I…" The corner of Rita's eye twitched. She knew
Room Number One, Southern Ocean Restaurant.The room was not huge, only about 540 square feet. It was furnished with classic wooden furniture. They looked ordinary, but one could see the passing of time on them. Other than that, different kinds of breakfast items were already being served on the table.Cornbread, collard greens, buttermilk biscuits, bacon-studded scrambled eggs…While they were not haute cuisine, they made the entire room look alive.Sienna was sitting on one side of the table, wearing gold-framed glasses and looking at the information on her tablet. She had not been awake for long; the sleepiness in her eyes remained. She also did not put on any makeup.But even then, she was still just as beautiful.Harvey glanced at such a beautiful woman, simply pulled the chair, and sat down without any thoughts. "It has been a long while since we met at Flutwell, princess…""Indeed. But you're the one who didn't want to see me, Harvey…" Sienna said as she removed her glass
