Category: Harvey York’s Rise to Power

Chapter 5081

Chapter 5081 Kensley Quinlan felt utter despair.

Harvey York’s mere words were enough to sell Jesse Xavier a favor.

Jesse was supposed to be on Kensley’s side, and yet he went against her that easily.

Lexie York, who had remained silent all this time, suddenly stood up.

“That’s right. Slandering the representative of the country’s Martial Arts Alliance by abusing authority is a crime. If you can’t explain yourself, we must investigate the situation thoroughly!

“If there’s a misunderstanding, or you’re forced to do this, you should speak right now!

“The four cornerstones will clear your name!”

Jesse smiled before showing a profound look on his face.

“That’s right. You should just come clean.

“Though, you better not spout nonsense.

“That’ll be an even bigger crime, after all.

“Your only way to get out of the situation is to give us the name of the person behind you.

“Since Representative York is a reasonable man, I’m sure he’ll only go for the main culprit.”

Peyton Horan took a deep breath.

“As the representative of Dragon Cell, I guarantee I’ll help you if you’re actually being led to do all this.”

Samuel Bauer smiled.

“We’re not interested in small fries either.”

After hearing everyone’s words…

It became clear what they wanted.

Kensley would be proven innocent if she gave the name of the person behind her.

Her expression kept changing, as if she was fighting her inner demons.

After a while, she slowly removed her armband and put it on the table.

“I have nothing to say!” exclaimed Kensley after taking a deep breath.

“I’m responsible for all this!

“I’ll resign from my position effective immediately and admit to my crimes!”

‘Nothing to say?

‘She’s responsible?’

Harvey showed a profound gaze after hearing those words.

Peyton and the others frowned. They could not help but take a few good looks at Kensley.

Nobody thought the lady of the Quinlan family was this determined.

Even if she did not die from admitting to such a huge crime, she was most likely going to live the rest of her life behind bars.

“And your reason?”

When everyone was dead silent, Samuel smiled before reminding everyone.

“You went against Harvey and the Martial Arts Alliance, completely disregarding everything. There should at least be a good reason for this, right?”

Kensley coldly glared at Harvey.

“It’s nothing special, really!

“This b*stard looked at me wrong when we met during the fight!

“From that moment onward, I’ve hated him every time I saw him!

“I’ve been only thinking of putting him behind bars!

“That was why, after gaining control of Golden Cell, I decided to frame him when I found out he was involved with two murder cases!

“And so, I ordered Carver Ruiz to bring him in!

“Then, I arranged for Harvey to be on trial here.

“My goal is to kill him!

“Since I’ve been exposed, I’ll take the fall for defaming Dragon Cell and the Quinlan family!

“So be it even if I die!”

Harvey felt utterly speechless when he saw Kensley decisively admit defeat after shaming herself like that.

That being said, he could not help but be impressed by Blaine John’s control.

At this point, why would Kensley still stand up for him?

Chapter 5080

Chapter 5080 Kensley Quinlan froze.

She painstakingly turned around before looking at Harvey York with a horrible expression.

“I already declared your innocence ! You’re released! What else do you want?!

“Questioning the suspect is Dragon Cell’s responsibility!

“If you’re still dissatisfied, you can ask for compensation when you turn left after going outside!

“By law, we’ll compensate you around sixteen thousand dollars.”

“Do you think I’m in need of money?”

Kensley gritted her teeth.

“What do you want then?”

“You detained me and charged me for absolutely no reason.

“If I weren’t lucky, I would’ve been spending the rest of my life behind bars now, right?

“I’d probably be gunned down at this point.

Harvey merely shrugged.

“Why don’t you explain yourself for making me suffer like this?

“Where’s your apology?”

Kensley’s expression changed before she gritted her teeth.

“I’m sorry.”

Utter resentment was felt when she said those words.

Everyone could tell that Kensley was just trying to dodge the subject, but it was already quite impressive of Harvey to be able to force those words out of her.

Harvey clapped his hands.

“There’s absolutely no sincerity in those words, but I accept your apology…”

Kensley took a deep breath to hold her feelings back, thinking of ways to take down Harvey next time.

But before she could do all that, Harvey smiled faintly when he spoke again.

“That said, I’m afraid you’d also have to justify your actions for trying to slander the country’s Martial Arts Alliance.

“Because of you, the Country H Martial Arts Alliance almost lost its position as one of the directors of the world’s Martial Arts Alliance!

“The representative would be hated by history itself!

“This is a huge crime involving the entire country and its people!

“How are you supposed to explain yourself for this?

“If you were the only person who orchestrated this, then you’d probably have to die for your crime!

“If there’s someone behind you, you should tell us right now to spare your life…”

Everyone curiously looked at Kensley after hearing Harvey’s words.

Moments ago, Kensley was suppressing Harvey in the name of justice.

But at this instant, her justification instantly turned into her biggest roadblock!

Unless she wanted to live longer, she should expose the person behind her!

Even Eliel Braff was shocked.

He knew Blaine John was supporting Kensley…

But it would be a different thing for her to admit it herself!

“How dare you push her like this?!”

Maisie Xavier’s pretty face was showing anger when she trembled in rage.

Harvey shrugged before looking at Jesse Xavier.

“For Yvonne’s sake, I won’t ask your family to take responsibility.

“But if you don’t take care of your family, don’t blame me if they get shot in the face.”

Jesse let out a chuckle before waving his hand. Soon after, two people from the Dragon Guards quickly escorted Maisie out of the place.

Chapter 5079

Chapter 5079 “If you wish, you can investigate the place and find the main perpetrator.

“After all, I don’t have any power as a mere first-in- command!”

“We’ll let Master Horan handle this as a form of respect for Dragon Cell. Is that fine?” asked Samuel Bauer calmly.

“Of course!” replied Peyton Horan, smiling.

“Come!

“Take them away!”

Peyton waved his hand before his experts escorted the scowling father and daughter out of the place.

The two were capable of martial arts. Faceless was especially impressive at it…

But at this very moment, they would not dare fight back.

Samuel and the others managed to get rid of another one of Kensley Quinlan’s trump cards yet again.

Her expression worsened instantly after seeing the sight.

She took a deep breath to compose herself. She knew she could not do anything to Harvey York now.

“Looks like I’m still innocent.

“Nobody can prove that I’m guilty in two separate cases now.

“Then, let’s talk about me jailbreaking.”

Harvey smiled at Kensley.

“I reported a spy like the good citizen I am. I’ll just pretend that it’s just a formality for me to be questioned.

“Then, tell me how I broke out of jail.

“It’s your turn to show your loyalty to your master, Carver Ruiz.

“You put a lot of effort into locking me up, after all!”

The second-in-command of Golden Cell shuddered uncontrollably before slamming his knees to the ground “I’ll tell! I’ll tell you everything!

“The Islanders bribed me!

“They wanted me to frame Sir York!

“That was why I pretended to let him go just to arrest him again!

“Sir York’s innocent!”

What a shock!

Carver’s schemes against Harvey had failed the moment he kneeled.

Kensley could have easily taken down Harvey with the charges *** But because of the four cornerstones, everything had to be dealt with publicly.

Framing would naturally be utterly useless in that case.

“All three charges have been made clear, Ms. Kensley. Do you understand now?” asked Harvey calmly.

“How will you judge now?”

Kensley looked horrible while she kept breathing rapidly.

“Harvey’s innocent! Release him this instant!” she exclaimed while gritting her teeth after a long while.

Lexie York frowned without doing anything, as if she was just here to watch the show.

Jesse Xavier sighed. Samuel had total control over how the entire situation went.

As the master of Longmen, he was an extremely experienced man.

With him here, the young master would naturally be protected from any schemes.

After vengefully glaring at Harvey, Kensley took a deep breath before she was about to leave.

But the moment she turned around, Harvey suddenly smashed the cup of tea he was drinking to the ground.

Then, he crossed his legs while squinting at Kensley.

“When did I say that you could leave?”

Chapter 5078

Chapter 5078 Before that, Harvey York calmly spoke again.

“Hold on. There’s something you haven’t told us yet.

“What’s up with this?”

Then, Harvey glanced at the needles.

Cristan Gibson looked at the needles before he instinctively shuddered.

“As soon as I got here, someone came to me before putting those in me,” he said with a parched voice.

“He told me if I didn’t say everything that he wanted to hear, the restrictions would be used to kill me.

“The thing he wanted me to say was Sir York and the others were involved with Aung’s death.”

“I see.

Harvey chuckled before glancing at Kensley.

“Either Golden Cell isn’t that heavily guarded, or your subordinates are just that loyal…

“If not, a witness this important wouldn’t be attacked in the first place, right?

“If you’re going to take me down, then at least find credible evidence.

“Framing me like this seems a little too lame.

“Not only are you embarrassing yourself, but the entire Dragon Cell is also humiliated for this!”

Kensley’s eyes twitched.

“Looks like I was being fooled as well…

“If that’s the case, then you’re naturally innocent.

“Then again, you’re also deeply involved with Nameless’

death.

“After all, the victim’s family is here!”

Then, Kensley glanced at Faceless and Flawless.

It would be easy for her to take down Harvey with those two here.

The crowd looked over at the father and daughter as well.

Samuel Bauer squinted for a moment before showing a faint smile.

“If I remember correctly, this person belongs to Evermore, right?

“He should’ve been exiled from the city many years ago.

“Why is he here now?

“Is Evermore still trying to set up base here?

“If that’s the case, Harvey did a huge accomplishment by killing Faceless’ son!

“That’s right. Evermore is already recognized by the country as a terrorist organization. They had been scheming with the Islanders to take down Country H for the longest time.

“You wouldn’t treat those people as victims now, would you?”

Kensley’s eyes twitched. Samuel and Eliel Braff were ultimately siding with Harvey…

They were also speaking in the name of the country’s justice.

Even Evermore’s true intentions were completely exposed.

If Harvey were proven to have killed Nameless, he should be rewarded for his huge accomplishments!

Lexie York and Jesse Xavier looked at each other. They wanted to speak on Kensley’s behalf but did not utter a single word after hesitating for a long while.

After all, they came in the name of justice.

As representatives of the four cornerstones, they would not dare spout any kind of nonsense.

In reality, many things were already set in stone when the four cornerstones were gathered to start the trial.

Everything must be dealt with while adhering to the law. The country’s interest would also far outweigh any individual’s.

“Faceless does belong to Evermore, but the Faceless Group has been completely whitewashed after he made a strong comeback here.”

Chapter 5077

Chapter 5077 “Bullshit!

Kensley Quinlan was furious.

“When did I even suggest you about such a thing?!”

Cristan Gibson took a deep breath before looking at Kensley with a face as pale as paper.

“Every time you questioned me, you kept saying I’ll be spared if I claim Sir York and the others are my superiors!

“Is that not considered as suggesting?

“According to the rules, there’s video footage of every single Golden Cell interrogation!

“Everything I say will be proven as soon as we find those!”

Kensley’s expression changed as she was about to make a gesture.

“Ms. Kensley, you better not get your subordinates to destroy the footage,” said Harvey, wiping his fingers.

“Other than showing just how guilty you are, you won’t do yourself any good!”

Kensley almost broke a tooth, gritting. Harvey managed to control the entire situation with his words again, almost causing her to make an incredibly wrong move.

She took a deep breath after forcing herself to calm down.

“Let’s not say whether someone threw hints at you!

“Since you admitted to murdering Aung, tell us why you did it! Make sure to spill everything!

“Did someone order you to do it?!

“What was going through your mind when you did it?!

“How did you do it?!

“Give me every single detail!

“You also better not lie about it!

“If you tell us who gave you the order, the prominent figures here will make sure to clear your name!”

Cristan let out a bitter chuckle.

“Someone ordered me to do this, but… I don’t know who he is!

“I was stalking Aung when he was drinking his mind out.

“A man in a black suit gave me a credit card, saying that he’d give me seven hundred and thirty thousand dollars after I kill Aung.

“I was completely blinded by the money when I took the card.

I’ve never seen that much money in my entire life.

“Aung went to puke on the side of the road before he fell into the ditch.

“I could’ve saved him, but I watched him drown since I wanted the money.

“I didn’t kill Aung, but I might as well have by what I didn’t do!

“If you don’t believe me, then use anything you have to test me!

“I swear this was exactly how it went down! I didn’t lie!”

Kensley looked horrible.

“If this is true, then why did Prince give you the money in the first place?

“Didn’t he pay you to assassinate Aung?”

Cristan bitterly chuckled.

“I saw a house that I really liked in the city center. I needed eight hundred and eighty thousand dollars.

“After getting seven hundred and thirty thousand, I needed to get the remaining amount. That was why I asked for Young Master Gibson’s help…

“This was all my fault. This really had nothing to do with him *** “The card with the money is hidden inside the ceiling on the side of my room. Nobody lives in that house. You can search the house whenever you want.

“This is everything I know.

“This doesn’t involve anyone else! Do anything you want with me!”

Kensley briefly glared at Cristan. She was just about to send him away, seeing as she could not get anything else useful from him.

Chapter 5076

Chapter 5076 Harvey York nodded at Peyton Horan before slapping Cristan Gibson on his forehead.

In the next moment, he slowly lifted his hand before revealing a cyan needle pulled from Cristan’s head.

Kensley Quinlan did not think much about it, believing that Harvey could not remove Cristan’s restriction…

But her face darkened instantly after seeing the needle.

That man set the restriction himself, yet it was so easily removed…

Pfft!

Harvey pulled out more needles from Cristan’s heart and stomach.

When the final needle was pulled, Cristan seemed immediately relieved. His pained expression was not to be seen anymore.

Clink!

Harvey casually threw the needle to the ground. Kensley and the others instinctively stepped back after smelling the foul stench coming from the needles.

Harvey completely ignored those people when he wiped his fingers with some tissue.

“There. Cristan’s fine now.

“Nobody can hurt him with me here.

“Continue with the trial!”

Then, Harvey casually went back to his seat.

Kensley’s heart dropped after seeing the sight.

She knew that Harvey definitely had impressive skills as the representative of the country’s Martial Arts Alliance.

That said, it was way beyond her imagination that he removed Cristan’s restriction without much effort.

“The witness seems a little weak. How about we let him rest for the time being?”

Kensley’s eyes lit up. Samuel immediately cut her off as soon as she was about to speak.

“No need.

“Who knows what’ll happen if we let him leave?

“The people who gave him the restriction might just kill him.

Our only trail of evidence would be gone in an instant.

“Keep going with the trial. Everything he says right now will naturally be the truth.”

“That’s right. Even the witness managed to get such restrictions…” reassured Eliel Braff.

“Who knows what other things that Golden Cell is hiding?”

“I don’t think we should let the witness leave either,” added Lexie York after showing a faint smile for the longest time.

“We don’t know what’ll happen to him if we do.

“Even if we let him rest, he should only do that in front of us.

“That way, we’ll have a fair trial.”

Harvey froze after hearing Lexie’s words.

He showed a profound gaze when looking at Lexie.

Naturally, he did not think she would speak up for his sake.

“Keep him here to make sure that everyone’s at ease. The witness will not leave our sight,” said Jesse Xavier calmly.

Kensley showed a gloomy expression. She felt a sense of danger in the air.

Cristan, who had been heaving for the longest time, stumbled off the ground before grabbing a glass of water.

“I don’t need rest! I’ll tell you everything!” he exclaimed after chugging his water down.

“I killed Aung!

“But nobody ordered me to!

“That said, Kensley hinted at me, saying she’d spare my life if I dragged down Harvey, Prince, and Shay with me!”

Chapter 5075

Chapter 5075 “After his death, which was early in the morning, you gave Cristan Gibson a hundred and fifty thousand dollars.”

Prince Gibson pondered the situation.

“That’s right. Cristan’s a family relative. He has always been working hard for us.

“He said that he was about to marry his girlfriend. I gave him that money to help him get the house he had been planning to buy.”

“You probably gave him the money for other reasons….?”

questioned Kensley Quinlan coldly.

“That money’s for his successful assassination, right?”

Prince showed a horrible expression. He realized that he was being strung along.

“Of course, I won’t doubt if you can prove what you claim is true.

“But in reality, we’ve already looked into Cristan.

“He never had a so-called girlfriend. That means that you’ve been lying the entire time!”

Prince was dead silent for a moment before looking at Cristan.

“Cristan should be able to prove it himself.

“He was the one who told me about the marriage. That was why I gave him the money in the first place.”

“Right!

Kensley looked at Cristan, whose face was as pallid as a ghost.

“Let me ask you this, Cristan. Did Prince give you the money to kill Aung?”

Cristan weakly raised his head before glancing at Kensley.

“No…”

His entire body violently shook when his veins popped out immediately. He started banging his head on the ground, as if he could not help himself.

Those words made it look like he was going against something that caused him to suffer.

Kensley showed a cold glare.

“If you tell us the whole truth, you will no longer suffer.

“Keep going against what’s in your heart, and you’ll die a horrible death.”

Cristan kept panting while he showed Kensley a deathly glare. It seemed as if he wanted to say something, but he simply could not.

Harvey, who had remained quiet the entire time, suddenly stood up.

“You’re using a man who’s being controlled to testify against us?

“Are you insane?”

Harvey stepped forward before holding onto Cristan’s neck.

“How dare you?! Are you trying to kill him or what?!”

exclaimed Maisie Xavier.

Kensley coldly chuckled before waving her hand. A group of people in uniforms stepped forward with firearms in hand.

It would be extremely courageous to kill someone in a hall guarded by Dragon Cell!

“I wouldn’t be that stupid now, would I?

“Are you scared of me figuring something out?”

“How dare you?!”

Kensley’s face instantly darkened.

“If you keep doing this, it’d be justifiable to gun you down!”

“Then, try it.”

Right as Kensley was about to give the order, Peyton Horan suddenly spoke.

“There’s no rush. We’ll see what Harvey’s trying to do.

“If he really kills the witness here, we can just kill him afterward.”

Everyone froze after hearing Peyton’s words. They could not tell who he was standing with.

Compared to Kensley’s status, Peyton was completely superior.

The people in uniforms instinctively lowered their firearms after hearing Peyton’s command.

Chapter 5074

Chapter 5074 Ten o’clock at night.

The joint trial had officially commenced.

The main hall of Golden Cell was as clean as a whistle.

The representatives of the four cornerstones sat on tall seats on both sides.

Kensley Quinlan sat in the middle with a frown.

Faceless and Flawless were seated in a spot assigned specifically for the victim’s family.

After getting first aid, Flawless finally regained her composure when she showed a cold gaze.

In reality, Faceless had been thinking of fleeing multiple times, but he calmed himself down when the representatives of the four cornerstones showed up one after another.

Besides him, Shay Gibson and Prince Gibson were also told to stay.

Darwin Gibson and the others were seated in the audience’s row.

The defendant’s seat was saved for none other than Harvey York.

Eliel Braff crossed his arms while squinting at the sight not too far away.

“Come! Bring in the witnesses!”

Kensley did not waste any time after seeing everyone here.

She quickly waved her hand before giving the command.

Soon, two people in red uniforms pushed a man in a wheelchair. The man was wearing a robe of Golden Sands’

branch of Heaven’s Gate.

His face was ashen, making it seem he had already been questioned quite a bit.

Then again, there were no wounds on him, suggesting that he was not tortured.

When Harvey looked over, he could tell that the man was already on the brink of insanity.

“Cristan?” asked Prince instinctively.

Harvey glanced over.

“Do you know him?”

Prince nodded.

“This was one of the people my father arranged me with. He was recently put in charge of keeping you safe. I didn’t expect that he’d show up here…”

Harvey frowned before curiously looking at Kensley without saying a word.

Bam!

Kensley slammed the gavel with a righteous look on her face.

“This is a public hall, Prince ! Do you think you can just run your mouth like that?

“You’ll get a slap across your damn face if you keep yapping!”

Prince’s expression turned glum. When he was about to say something, Harvey waved his hand to cut him off.

“Ms. Kensley’s right. After all, she’s in charge of the place.

“Then, let’s begin if everyone’s already here, Ms. Kensley.”

Kensley’s face started twitching after hearing Harvey’s words. She quickly took a deep breath before looking at Prince.

“Right! Let’s begin!

“Prince Gibson!

“You assigned Cristan to Harvey to keep him safe. Correct?”

Prince nodded.

“That’s right. He was one of my men, but I gave him the order to protect Harvey.”

Kensley showed a cold glare.

“That was why after Master Aung got crippled because he was causing trouble to Harvey….

“To deal with the problem once and for all…

“You gave the order to silence Master Aung!”

Prince froze before shaking his head.

“No! I got word of the incident, but I only told Cristan to keep an eye on Aung in case he does something reckless!

“I never intended to kill anyone!”

There was something that Prince did not disclose.

If Aung really did want to kill Harvey, he would have given the order to feed Aung to the fishes. Since dead men tell no tales, nobody would have proof to use against him anyway.

Chapter 5073

Chapter 5073 Before the two were done talking, another figure showed up.

The person was a man with a face as beautiful as a woman’s, smiling gently.

The people familiar with Yvonne Xavier would definitely see the similarities in him.

The man walked toward Eliel Braff before respectfully bowing.

“It’s been a while, Mr. Braff. How’s everything?”

“Pretty good,” replied Eliel before looking at Harvey York.

“Let me introduce you, Sir York. This is Jesse Xavier from one of the top ten families. He’s the young master of the Xavier family and also the last disciple of the Dragon Guards ‘master.

“It wouldn’t be far-fetched to call him the next successor either.”

Harvey squinted at Jesse before smiling faintly.

“We’ve met before.”

Eliel’s gaze was filled with shock. He did not expect that the two had already met.

Jessie smiled back after seeing Harvey’s expression.

“Should I be calling you Prince York or Representative York?”

“Whichever you prefer,” Harvey replied.

“Of course.

Jesse sized up Harvey.

“One of my sisters is your secretary, and the other’s your enemy.

“Tell me, should I be helping or going against you?”

“All you need to do is to uphold justice,” replied Harvey calmly.

“Or rather, don’t do anything against your own will.”

Jesse froze before he burst out laughing.

“That’s funny of you to say.

“Do you even know what my volition is?”

Then, Jesse walked into the hall.

Maisie Xavier scurried over as soon as she saw her brother’s face.

“You’re finally here, Jesse!

“A bad person’s taking advantage of me!”

Kensley Quinlan let out a sigh.

Another figure showed up shortly after.

It was the warden of Mordu’s Dragon Cell, Peyton Horan.

He walked towards Harvey with a lamenting gaze.

“It’s been a while, Sir York.”

Harvey greeted him back.

“Senior Horan. How’s everything?”

“Still going strong. That said, regarding your situation today…

Peyton showed a bitter look on his face before heaving a sigh.

“Since I belong to the Dragon Cell, I naturally have to stand with my organization!

“That said, I guarantee that nobody will be able to lay a finger on you if you’re innocent!”

Harvey smiled.

“You don’t have to worry. I have nothing to be guilty of.”

Peylon showed a profound gaze as he stared at Harvey before heading inside.

At this moment, an antique Haval limousine slowly stopped before a man in a white robe appeared.

It was the master of Longmen, Samuel Bauer!

Even Eliel could not help but let out a gasp.

He was the previous Great Elder of the military force!

The master of one of the top ten families!

And the master of one of the country’s four cornerstones !

Nobody expected to have a man of this caliber to show up.

Before the crowd returned to their senses, Samuel approaced Harvey and smiled faintly.

“With your identity, nobody would even dare lay a finger on you.”

“What kind of identity do I even have?”

“The young master of Longmen, and the organization’s next successor. Is that not enough?” replied Samuel calmly.

Eliel let out a gasp, gawking at Harvey in disbelief.

‘The next successor of Longmen?!

‘Harvey’s the legendary young master?!

‘Representative of the country’s Martial Arts Alliance, the young master of Longmen, Prince York of South Light, and the Golden Sands’ top geomancy expert…

‘Who knows what other identities he even has…?’

Chapter 5072

Chapter 5072 This was big trouble!

Kensley Quinlan sat on the chair with a horrible look.

Eliel Braff did not even bring another person with him, but nobody would dare do anything reckless just because of his presence alone.

The people of Golden Cell had faces that were completely void of color. Naturally, they did not know just what would happen next.

Two hours later, armored vehicles appeared from afar, surrounding all the main roads.

Kensley’s expression instantly worsened!

It was Dragon Cell!

They came all the way here to Golden Sands before taking over Golden Cell’s defenses. Kensley would not believe it if anyone told her that the higher-ups had no idea about the situation.

Luxury cars started to show up one after another.

All sorts of prominent figures were here.

Those people were not in charge of the country’s four cornerstones, but every single one of them was definitely superior compared to thousands of people.

Kensley was the lady of one of the top ten families, but she had never seen such a sight either. Her beautiful face completely worsened as soon as she saw the sight.

Only she knew best that the proof she prepared probably was insufficient to deal with Harvey.

She would most likely suffer losses if everything were out on display.

That said, Kensley still sighed after seeing the Dragon Guards.

Blaine managed to rally some of his people here through his connections.

Harvey and Eliel stood before the entrance. Harvey immediately frowned when he saw some people who showed up.

The first person who showed up was Lexie, the lady of the Dragon Palace.

Seniority-wise, the fifth lady of the Yorks of Hong Kong was considered Harvey’s aunt. She was showing a judgmental gaze when she looked at Harvey.

Eliel smiled.

“Do you know the lady of the Dragon Palace, Harvey?”

Lexie spoke even before Harvey could say a word.

“We’re actually pretty familiar with each other.

“Julian told me to tell you something.

“Serves you right.”

Harvey let out a chuckle.

“Tell him something for me as well.

“If he can’t figure out his limits and is still trying to mock me “He won’t get a chance to rise for the rest of his life.”

Lexie’s beautiful face was filled with rage. After coldly staring at Harvey, she strutted into the main hall.

Kensley’s eyes lit up. After seeing the two go against each other, she caught something, thinking she could take down Harvey.

Then, Eliel looked at Lexie’s slender figure while smiling faintly.

“You two have a past?

“More like a grudge,” replied Harvey.

“With my help, Queenie York became the one who rose to power instead of the young master she looked up to the most.

“She even lost her control over her organization because of me.

“It’s only natural that she wants me dead.”

Eliel curiously glanced at Harvey. He wanted to know just what kind of secrets Harvey had.

He looked up to Harvey considerably but was still surprised when he heard of such a past.
