    Seeing Harvey leave in such a dashing way, Esther was filled with despair and rage.

    She had no idea if she was about to turn into a missing person or not.

    ‘That b*stard’s just ruthless! He’s not giving me any chances!’

    Ensley was on the verge of coughing out blood. Shaking, she pulled out her phone.

    “Prince Gibson! I’ll sleep with you!

    “But on one condition!

    “I need you to kill someone for me!”

    “You’re so awesome, Uncle York! You’re definitely my uncle from now on!”

    Heading back to Fortune Hall, Kade was filled with admiration.

    “If you need help in the future, just say the word.

    “I’ll do everything in my power.

    “I can do whatever you want me to!

    “No matter how impressive Esther and Ensley are, I imagine they’d be seething with anger for the next few days.

    “This feel so refreshing ! This is way better than just slapping them in the face!

    “Not only is Empire Hall on the verge of collapse, but they’d also have to pay billions of dollars for the losses!

    “Ahahaha!”

    Kade cackled hysterically, praising himself for being smart enough to be on Harvey’s good side. If that wasn’t the case, he would’ve been on the losing end.

    “Enough,” Harvey said. “How are you losing control over such a small matter? You’re embarrassing your father.”

    Harvey casually took a sip of his tea.

    “Go back and tell your father that someone was targeting your family with the Oni Blade.

    “They want your family gone for good! You should be careful.

    “I suspect that there’s another person behind Esther, too.”

    Kade nodded.

    “Don’t worry. I’m a playboy, but I’m not an idiot.

    “I told my father about it already. He’ll send his men after Esther.

    “We’ll know who she’s with soon enough.”

    Harvey nodded, not saying another word.

    There were some things that didn’t need more explaining; it would be suspicious if he kept staying on topic.

    “Right. Since it’s such a joyous occasion, let’s have a meal in the VIP building.”

    Kade looked at him respectfully.

    “I still want to apologize to you for before.

    That, and we should also celebrate our victory!”

    “I’ll pass. There’s no point for us to have a meal together, anyway,” Harvey replied calmly.

    “I have other things to attend to. You should get some people to deal with the gemstones soon.

    “It’d be hard for you to sell them once Blaine and Emery come to their senses.”

    It’d be troubling if the two wanted payback for what had happened. Kade was just a rich playboy, so it wouldn’t be good for him to hold onto the gemstones in the first place.

    “Don’t worry, Uncle York! I won’t keep valuable stones like these for long.”

    The playboy wasn’t stupid, either; Emery and Blaine would come for him if he continued to hold onto the gemstones.

    In that case, it was better if he turned everything into money as soon as possible.

    “I’ll mop the floors for you when I’m done selling the gemstones!” Kade said enthusiastically.

    Harvey didn’t decline the offer. He sipped his tea calmly, intending to rest.

    Millions of dollars were just a number to him.

    Rather than that, Harvey wanted Blaine to show his face more.

    He had Mandy to worry about as well.

    Thinking about this, his head started to ache.

    “Master York, this is a painite from the Western Dynasty I’ve been looking into,” the woman said.

    “It’s said that the scent has passed down through the ages. Help me appraise how much this costs!

    “I haggled for a long time before finally buying it for three hundred thousand dollars!”

    Kade and the others immediately looked over.

    Since Harvey could appraise gemstones, it wouldn’t be hard for him to look at antiques either.

    Esther’s eyes twitched frantically; she crossed her arms, silent as she maintained her high and mighty attitude without saying a word.

    Harvey grabbed the painite, and smiled.

    “The Western Dynasty? Are you sure about that?”

    He snapped the so-called painite in half.

    Everyone froze; even Kade was dumbfounded.

    The middle-aged woman was shocked. She bought the item with three hundred thousand dollars, yet Harvey broke it without even any warning.

    “How could you do that, Master York?!

    That’s a national treasure !” she screamed.

    Harvey gave the two halves of the painite back.

    “This is clearly a fake.”

    The crowd fell into an uproar.

    “A fake?!”

    “Look closely. The gem is probably real. It must’ve been dug out of the ground just recently.

    “However, someone must’ve used machinery to inject agarwood powder inside it.

    “The gem would only cost a few thousand dollars, but it was artificially made into a painite from the Western Dynasty.

    “It must’ve been made just last week, too.

    “If you don’t believe me, just look at how fresh the powder is.”

    The appraisal masters went over, and started looking at the painite.

    They were all experienced people unafraid of offending anyone. After thoroughly investigating the painite, they were all filled with shock.

    “It’s a fake! It’s definitely a fake!”

    “The quality of the agarwood isn’t that good, either!”

    “How dare you lie to me about this, you b*tch? Do you think my money grows on trees?”

    The middle-aged woman walked up to Esther, and slapped her in the face.

    “I’m not coming here ever again! This place is heinous!”

    Esther stumbled back a few times after taking the slap, but she wouldn’t dare fight back.

    The middle-aged woman was the aunt of the city’s prominent figure, after all. Anyway, it was only natural that Esther got slapped for selling a counterfeit product.

    More importantly, Empire Hall had gotten a lot of traction in just a few years because of one important reason: the items there were all authentic products.

    Nobody expected Harvey to expose them that quickly!

    The place was no different from any other shady shop.

    “I’m not buying anything here!”

    “I’m returning this!”

    “If you don’t let me, I’m calling the cops!”

    The entire Empire Hall was in an uproar. A large group of people squeezed inside, with some holding receipts and antiques for one clear goal: to return them, no matter the cause.

    Ensley and Esther were filled with despair.

    They didn’t think that Harvey would even come up with such a plan.

    His simple words were enough to collapse the entire shop.

    They lost billions of dollars just because of this. Their reputation had already gone out the window, along with their business!

    They were finished!

    “You already made 1.5 billion dollars, and ruined the rest of the stones!

    “How dare you ask for more?

    “You want us to grovel and make a video about this? Are you kidding me?”

    Esther was already defeated; she wouldn’t dare compromise any further.

    Her reputation would be thrown out the window if she did as Harvey said!

    She’d rather fight to her last breath and protect her dignity.

    Ensley gritted her teeth, and glared at Harvey.

    “Bring out everything you’ve got!

    “We’ll take it all!

    “You probably won’t be able to do much, anyway!

    “What are you going to do? Kill us all? Or are you going to slap us around instead?!

    “If you lay even a single finger on us, you’ll end up horribly! I guarantee it!

    “Your entire family will suffer because of your arrogance!”

    Kade walked up as he watched the show.

    “You should just do as he says.

    “I’ll ask him to go easy on you two; you don’t need to make a video about it. Just make sure you grovel a few hundred times.

    “Uncle York’s a geomancy expert. If he wants to, he can kill you two by just lifting a finger.

    Kade hated the two women. Before, he wanted to throw them to the fishes.

    Now, he was filled with nothing but pity for them.

    Empire Hall was a lifelong business, but it was completely ruined because of one man.

    Not only were they completely humiliated, but they suffered immense losses as well!

    Empire Hall would go bankrupt if they weren’t careful.

    Because of this, Kade didn’t need to feel angry.

    “Enough talk!”

    Esther glared disdainfully at Harvey.

    “I’m not a relative of the descendants, but I still belong to the John family!

    “Precious royal blood flows in my veins!

    “You’ll have to kill me first before I kneel!”

    Ensley chuckled coldly. “Are you trying to come for us after getting a chance to show off? What a joke! What are you thinking ?”

    Harvey put down his cup, smiling faintly. He clapped.

    “Since you don’t care about the chance I gave you, don’t blame me for what happens next.

    “Remember, you were the ones who flunked it.

    “Don’t hate me for this.

    “There’s no point in doing that, anyway.”

    Harvey sighed, looking at Ensley and Esther as if they were idiots.

    Esther raised her head stubbornly.

    “Bring it on, Harvey!

    “If I get scared, I’ll make your surname mine!”

    Ensley glared at Harvey as well; she wanted to see what other tricks Harvey was going to pull.

    The crowd came over after realizing another show was about to happen.

    Harvey’s performance had completely captivated them.

    “Can I see what’s in your hand, ma’am?”

    Harvey asked.

    He glanced at a middle-aged woman in an exquisite dress.

    The woman was holding an ancient gemstone she had just bought. She handed the gem to him, smiling brightly. 2

    Chapter 4618

    Ensley and Esther didn’t know how Harvey managed to pick out every single valuable gemstone.

    What they knew was that Empire Hall had suffered immense losses because of this!

    The geomancy market wasn’t all that big. In just a few hours, word of the incident spread like wildfire.

    How were Ensley and Esther supposed to sell the thousands of stones that remained in the shop?

    The entire country’s stone gambling circle wasn’t that big, either. Antique businesses related to the John family would probably plummet as well.

    After all, gamblers bet on chance; they didn’t come here just to give their money away!

    Seeing Kade wave his subordinates to carry the gemstones away, Ensley and Esther clenched their teeth in rage.

    They wanted to kill Harvey and steal the gems so badly…

    Harvey smiled, and stepped forward with his tea in hand.

    “Well? Are you happy now?

    “Did I manage to make you suffer?

    “Shouldn’t you be kneeling by now?”

    “You b*stard! I won’t let you off the hook that easily!” Esther exclaimed coldly.

    “I’ll tell Young Master John all about this! You’ll know regret soon enough!”

    Ensley’s gaze was as cold as ice.

    “Young Master Wright will be informed about this, too!

    “Wolsing’s top young master will definitely remember your name!”

    “Oh? Is that a threat?”

    Harvey grinned playfully.

    “Just now, you two were begging for me to come at you. Why have you changed your mind now?

    “You can’t admit defeat?

    “You even want to take revenge on me?

    “Maybe steal the gems from me?

    “It’s useless. Kade has three hundred men transporting all the gems. Try stealing them if you dare!

    “Even if you could steal them, I’ll settle scores with you!

    “We’ll see who’s in the right soon enough!”

    “You…”

    Esther pointed at Harvey, ready to scream in rage after being completely exposed.

    “What?”

    Harvey glared coldly at her.

    “I’m giving you one minute to kneel. Grovel and admit to your faults, and I’ll leave.

    “If not, I’ll make you regret your decision for the rest of your lives.”

    “Grovel in front of you?” Esther was boiling with anger. “What right do you have?”

    Ensley chuckled coldly.

    “If we do grovel, can you take it?

    “Do you dare take it with your lowly identity?

    “Have you thought of the consequences of such a thing?”

    Harvey smiled calmly.

    “Last time, you hired killers to come for my Augustea. I’ll have to settle scores with you about that, too.

    “How about this? You’ll have to upload a video online of you groveling, too.

    “That’s not too much to ask now, is it?”

    Harvey then looked at the watch on his wrist.

    Esther’s expression changed when she heard about the Augustea.

    She realized that Harvey was with Kairi. With the Patel family’s support, Harvey did have the right to go against Blaine.

    But after thinking that Harvey only managed to trample on his enemies by clinging to a woman, Esther felt nothing but disdain.

    “I’ll admit, you do have some talent. That doesn’t mean you can just do whatever you want to us!” she snarled through gritted teeth.

    Chapter 4617

    The people around froze; they were shocked to see all the valuable gemstones in front of their eyes. They had no clue what to say.

    Kade froze as well, then burst out in laughter.

    The beautiful workers dropped their phones to the ground, their mouths wide open.

    Ensley and Esther were dumbfounded, as if they were furiously slapped in the face. They couldn’t believe Harvey actually picked out every single valuable gem in the shop.

    What’s more, these gems were of the highest grade. Their combined total was close to 1.5 billion dollars.

    If the gems were put up for auction, the price would be astronomical.

    In under half an hour, a measly seventy million dollars turned into 1.5 billion! The speed was just ungodly!

    “My God!”

    “They’re all valuable gems!”

    “This is insane! How is this possible?”

    “Even the country’s best experts wouldn’t be able to do such a thing!”

    “This is definitely the work of a top-rated geomancy expert!”

    “I didn’t believe that legendary geomancy experts could sense aura, but now I do!”

    “This is my first time seeing something this shocking!”

    “I can die without regrets now!”

    “This is the peak of my life!”

    “You need to give us your card, Master! We need to visit you sometime!”

    Despite having caused such an uproar, Harvey crossed his arms calmly.

    His skills were completely unrivaled!

    A lot of experts, who were watching the show, were on the verge of kneeling. They were impressed by Harvey’s talents and methods.

    Ensley, Esther, and the others revealed horrible expressions. They didn’t think that Harvey was actually this skillful.

    He managed to pick out so many valuable gemstones in under half an hour. Thinking back to the price they offered Harvey, they were on the verge of coughing up blood.

    Esther wanted to slam her head to the ground when she recalled how she had given Harvey a fifteen percent discount.

    “Quiet down, everyone.”

    Harvey clapped.

    His influence was immense. With just a few claps, everyone looked at him and stopped talking.

    “All the valuable gemstones are with me now.

    “The remaining ninety percent of the stones are useless. You won’t make any money with them.

    “You won’t be stupid enough to keep gambling stone here, right?”

    This was torture!

    Everyone was pulled to his side!

    Harvey’s methods had caught everyone’s attention completely. Nobody would question his judgment anymore.

    Besides, who in their right mind would continue gambling here when Harvey generously told them otherwise?

    There was no other option than to leave all the stones in Empire Hall to rot.

    A few gamblers, who were about to buy a few more stones, calmed down.

    ‘We’re finished!

    ‘We’re done for!

    ‘This damn b*stard!

    ‘He did this!’

    Ensley and Esther felt utterly hopeless.

  • Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 4616

    Chapter 4616

    Chapter 4616

    Soon, the total price was revealed – it was eighty million dollars in total.

    Out of generosity, Esther even gave Kade a member’s discount with a smile. Naturally, she was planning to torture his heart.

    “The stones just came here, Young Master Bolton. You’re the first customer, too!

    “To show our sincerity, we’ll provide you with an expert to cut the stones open for free if you want!”

    Esther’s smile was heinous. Kade found it downright infuriating.

    Harvey smiled.

    “Since you’re willing to provide the service, then I’ll gladly take it.

    “Come on! Open them up, then!”

    The entire geomancy market’s experts were brought here.

    They were shocked to see so many stones in front of them, but they quickly went to work.

    Sounds of engines roared in the main hall, stimulating the crowd’s eyes and nerves.

    Even in such a chaotic mess, everyone was still waiting for Harvey to make a fool out of himself.

    No matter the case, there were still eighty million dollars worth of stones!

    Normally speaking, Empire Hall wouldn’t sell this many in a single month.

    The experienced people deduced that the base price of the stones would cost five hundred and eighty million.

    Empire Hall would be earning money once a few more Harveys were to show up.

    Esther crossed her arms, looking amused.

    “Thank you for your generosity, Sir York, Young Master Bolton.

    “After I get a few more idiot customers like you, Young Master John will surely reward me!”

    “Are you just giving away free money at this point, Harvey?” Ensley snorted.

    She had nothing but disdain on her face.

    Ensley didn’t understand; Xynthia was a new star. She was quite well-known for it, too.

    Why was she even involved with such a useless person?

    Ensley had been with a lot of princes and young masters, but it was her first time seeing someone so close to filth like Harvey.

    Kade had a horrible look on his face. He trusted Harvey, but it didn’t mean that he was confident about it.

    “Want some tea?” Harvey asked calmly, sipping his tea.

    “You might get a little parched after getting a little too excited later.

    “Right. Remember to not hold back later.

    “Just do whatever you need to pay them back.”

    The beautiful workers sneered, thinking that Harvey was acting pompously. It was their first time seeing someone so arrogant yet completely talentless.

    Some of the customers were even trying to carve Harvey’s face in their minds. They were waiting for an opportunity to teach him a lesson afterward.

    Just as Ensley and Esther were about to make fun of Harvey, an expert trembled and said, ”

    It’s here! It’s here! It’s a crystal jade!”

    “A sapphire!”

    “Oh my god! It’s a nephrite!”

    “This is a red beryl!”

    “It’s an alexandrite!”

    The experts were shocked, and hurriedly picked up the pace.

    Every single one of the stones was soon revealed to be extremely valuable.

  • Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 4615

    Chapter 4615

    Chapter 4615

    “If you and Young Master Bolton think you’re capable, you’re more than welcome to buy everything! I’ll give you a twenty percent discount if you do!”

    Esther glared disdainfully at Harvey.

    “Well, you might as well just gamble your clothes away.”

    Naturally, Esther knew it’d already be impressive enough to find anything slightly valuable. If Harvey actually bought all the rocks here, the shop wouldn’t suffer any losses at all.

    Harvey smiled.

    “I can’t buy everything, but I can buy around a hundred rocks. Can you give me a fifteen percent discount for that?”

    “Of course!” Esther chuckled coldly.

    “Are sure you won’t regret it?” Harvey asked curiously.

    Esther scoffed. “Empire Hall will never take responsibility for the goods sold. We will never condone any trickery on our customers.”

    “Enough, Harvey! You’re just a live-in son-in-law. What’s the point of showing off here?” Ensley said, pretending to be nice.

    “I’d like to see how you’ll explain to the Bolton family once you lose all of Kade’s money.

    “Maybe you should just grovel in his place.

    I’ll ask Esther to give the money back if you do.”

    In Ensley’s eyes, winning money wouldn’t be as exciting as forcing Harvey to grovel.

    Harvey chuckled.

    “You don’t need to worry about that.

    “I’ll have to stand up for my dear nephew, no matter what.

    “If not, my conscience will keep me up at night!”

    “Fine! If you can to do that, I’ll grovel in front of your face!” Ensley exclaimed, pointing at Harvey.

    In her eyes, a mere talentless man was pitting himself against top-rated families.

    She was convinced Harvey was not only a man with a death wish, but he was also ignorant and loved flaunting his strength in front of the crowd.

    “Come. Get your men ready to move.”

    Harvey ignored Ensley, and went to the stone betting area.

    He squinted, and saw the difference in all the stones in front of him.

    Eighty percent were showing no glow; it was clear they were ordinary rocks.

    Most had a dim glow, but it was nothing compared to their respective price tags.

    Only about a hundred of them emitted a bright light with extraordinary colors.

    “I’ll take this one, this one, and this one here.” Harvey said.

    He casually looked around.

    Kade waved his hand, and his subordinates brought all the stones Harvey pointed at.

    When the stones were gathered in front of him, the entire place barely showed any light.

    The customers had already calculated the total price beforehand. The stones Harvey chose were more than eighty-two million dollars combined.

    Ensley and Esther looked at it with disdain.

    ‘If he can actually earn money just by pointing at random rocks, all the world’s appraisal masters would’ve slammed their heads on the ground by now…’

    Harvey slowly waved his hand. “We’re paying.”

  • Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 4614

    Chapter 4614

    Chapter 4614

    The customers looked oddly at Harvey.

    Even Kade felt a little speechless; Harvey was just an ordinary person. How was he planning to deal with Empire Hall?

    He couldn’t just scream at them.

    If he did, it’d be too lame.

    Ensley looked at her Pont des Amoureux watch.

    “I don’t have time to waste on a live-in son- in-law like you.

    “I’m giving you half an hour to see what you’d do.

    “It doesn’t matter if you get support or report this to authorities.

    “I’ll take it all!”

    Hearing Ensley’s mocking tone and seeing Esther’s prideful expression, Harvey smiled.

    He didn’t pay mind to it all.

    He knew that he could only make arrogant women like Ensley learn a lesson by making her suffer. Torturing a person’s heart was always more interesting than just killing.

    Harvey casually poured himself a cup of tea.

    Meanwhile, Ensley and Esther glared daggers at him.

    “How much money do you have right now, Kade?”

    “Less than three hundred million.”

    “That’s enough.”

    Harvey nodded, then looked curiously at Esther.

    “I see that you have a spot for gambling stones. Why don’t we play something big?”

    “Oh? I was wondering how you’d make me suffer…”

    Esther froze. Then, she laughed her stomach off, as if she was looking at a clown.

    “Do you think you’re actually an appraisal expert?

    “Do you want us to suffer losses in betting rocks?

    “Are you kidding me?

    “How are you so dumb when you speak?”

    Ensley and the other beautiful workers chuckled disdainfully at that.

    Nobody would win in anything gambling related…

    But so what if Harvey did?

    Empire Hall wouldn’t suffer any losses. The opportunity would be used to advertise the place as well.

    The rough stones had clear prices, with a lot of interest added to the amount. They wouldn’t lose any money at all!

    The customers looked at Harvey, filled with disgust.

    He seemed extremely impressive when he stepped out to stop Kade.

    Everyone thought he was about to call for help, or do something absolutely ungodly.

    Yet, he came just to give away his money!

    ‘As expected for the useless young master’s lackey to be the same!’

    Kade gritted his teeth after seeing Harvey’s casual expression. Nevertheless, he decided to put his trust in Harvey.

    “Alright. Enough of this nonsense.

    “When you’re done laughing, let’s get to business.”

    Harvey squinted at Esther.

    “Are you selling the rocks or not?”

    “Of course. I can give you a discount if you buy a lot, too!”

    Esther looked at him mockingly.

    “The stones here are around a thousand and four hundred dollars. Every single one of them is priced based on the size, color, and transparency.

    “The total amount costs more than a billion dollars.

    “If you buy ten at a time, the shop will give you a five percent discount. Since you’re such an idiot, I’ll give you a ten percent discount. How’s that for respect?”

  • Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 4613

    Chapter 4613

    Chapter 4613

    A calm voice could be heard at this moment.

    It wasn’t Esther or Ensley; This time, it was Harvey, who had been watching the show the entire time.

    “We live in a lawful society. We need to be civilized people.

    “I’ll have to teach you this lesson for your father.

    “Fighting and killing are out of style in this day and age. It’d be bad if videos of you committing such crimes went viral for some reason.”

    Harvey smiled gently.

    “That’s why people should be smart.

    “Don’t be provoked into doing what other people want you to.

    “If that were to happen, it’d be too late for regrets.”

    Harvey understood just how powerful the Wright family and the Xavier family were.

    The Bolton family alone wouldn’t be able to go against two of those families.

    It’d be refreshing for Kade to destory the place, but the repercussions would be dire.

    Besides, Harvey was planning to lure out Blaine anyway. When else was he going to step up, if not now?

    “You?!”

    “Harvey?!”

    Ensley and Esther recognized Harvey immediately; they didn’t think that the arrogant live-in son-in-law would show up.

    Esther’s gaze was filled with utter disdain as she glared at Harvey.

    The Augustea incident made her suffer immense losses. The monks she sent out mysteriously ended up in Kairi’s hands as well.

    She almost got killed by Blaine because of it.

    If it wasn’t because of Ensley, she would’ve been missing by now.

    Meanwhile, Ensley was filled with disdain when she looked at Harvey.

    In her eyes, Harvey was just a kept man. He was just a clown, making a fool out of himself to her so he could stand out.

    As for the Audi she saw at the airport, she asked about it and found out that it belonged to Watson Braff.

    This meant that Harvey was just Watson’s driver at most-maybe his driver’s friend.

    It didn’t matter who Harvey was, though; Ensley didn’t believe that he was the least bit capable.

    In her eyes, a man like Harvey was just useless filth whose vanity knew no bounds.

    “I can’t just swallow all this down, Uncle York!

    “How am I supposed to show my face outside in the future if I don’t do anything about this?”

    Kade was unhappy to hear Harvey’s words.

    “I’ll just pay for the damages after if I have to!”

    Harvey smiled.

    “Since you called me that, I’ll deal with this for you.

    “We don’t need to destroy the shop, either.

    “We’ll make them kneel and call you Daddy instead.”

    Kade froze.

    “Do you have a plan?

    “If you deal with this for me, I’ll see you as my actual uncle from today onward!”

    “That’s no problem. After all, I love winning people over with virtue,” Harvey said, smiling calmly.

    “Besides, I don’t like these two at all. If I’m not usually opposed to hitting women, they would’ve been sent flying by now.”

    Ensley and Esther chuckled coldly after hearing Harvey’s words.

    The beautiful workers nearby crossed their arms, waiting patiently for Harvey to make a fool out of himself.

    “Are you sure those two are enough to suppress me?”

    Kade smiled.

    “You used the Oni Blade against my family.

    What makes you think that I can’t pay you back for this?”

    “I think I’ve already made myself clear, Young Master Bolton!” Esther said.

    “I really don’t know anything about the Oni Blade!

    “In the first place, buying antiques and geomancy tools depened on your judgment!”

    Esther smiled faintly.

    “It’s your own fault you bought the wrong item.

    “How about this? Since you’re a regular here, I’ll compromise. I bought that with three hundred and forty thousand dollars.

    “So, I’ll just give you that money instead.”

    Esther grinned playfully.

    Returning the money was nothing, but the amount was just humiliating.

    She was completely disrespecting Kade.

    “Looks like you really think I can’t do anything to you just because of Emery and Blaine.”

    Kade’s expression was as cold as ice.

    “Do you really think that the six Hermit Families are a joke?”

    “Heh, heh, heh! Of course we know how impressive the Hermit Families are. We know you’re a reckless man, and that we have no power to go against you should you choose to destroy the entire place,” Ensley replied calmly.

    “That said, you’re going against both Young Master Wright and Young Master John just because of a statue and the so-called Oni Blade…

    “Don’t you think you’re being a little stupid, Young Master Bolton?

    “Or are you saying that you can bear the responsibility for this?”

    Kade narrowed his eyes. “So you’re saying I have no choice but to swallow my rage?”

    “You can destroy the place or kill people as you please…” Ensley said, shrugging.

    “But I believe your father will compensate for the damages soon after.

    “If you dare to kill us, your father will strangle you to death himself to compensate Young Master Wright and Young Master John.

    “Tell me, how confident do you think I am for this all to happen?”

    Ensley looked arrogant; she naturally knew just how the top-rated families acted.

    When a family gets bigger, more distractions must be taken care of. Many families wouldn’t have the luxury to be so reckless and casual any longer.

    In Ensley’s eyes, Kade had no choice but to swallow his pride.

    Kade glared at the beautiful woman standing before him, then took a deep breath.

    “I can’t hold it in after all,” he said, chuckling coldly.

    “Go! Smash the damn place up! Beat these people up while you’re at it!”

    Kade waved his hand, furious.

    A young master like him could lose everything, except pride.

    No matter what, he would fight till the bitter end.

    Even if he couldn’t handle the consequences, it was already too late for him to pull back.

    If he didn’t take action, his reputation as the dominant young master of the Bolton family would be completely tarnished.

    He couldn’t take the humiliation.

    “Stop!”
