Chapter 4571

Kade tapped Harlem’s face before speaking up.

“I’ll give you a chance…”

“All the men, grovel and get out of here.”

“All the women, stay.”

Imani and the others were horrified; they knew they’d suffer soon enough.

“You’re crossing the line!”

“We’ll call the cops!”

Harlem’s lackey gritted his teeth; groveling and leaving the women here would ruin his reputation completely.

Before he could take out his phone, one of Kade’s men walked up and snapped his arm.

“Aaagh!”

Screams of pain could be heard, catching everyone’s attention.

Under Kade’s command, the others walked and beat everyone from Country J to the ground.

Kade stepped up, and raised Imani’s chin. He smiled.

“Not bad. You look pretty good. I’ll have a good time with you…”

Imani was panicking. She was from the entertainment industry, and she wasn’t an innocent lady. However, men who craved her would have to pursue her for a long time before they could get their hands on her.

It was her first time seeing someone as arrogant as Kade. She instinctively tried to run away.

At the same time, she looked pleadingly at Harlem.

He had been flaunting his strength like there was no tomorrow.

She hoped he would step up and protect her….

It was a shame. Harlem wouldn’t even dare do something like that.

He gritted his teeth; he wanted to lash out, but he knew that he was no match against Kade. He’d have a death wish to go against Kade.

And so, Harlem had no choice but to kneel on the ground.

Imani’s hope turned into despair. She didn’t think that the man she looked up to was this cowardly. The more he boasted about himself before, the worse he looked now.

Harlem quickly looked away from her; compared to his dignity, his life was naturally a lot more important.

It’d be bad if he got careless and died because of it!

There’d always be plenty of women around to pursue, but he needed to be alive for that to happen!

Kade moved Imani’s exquisite face by her jaw, and glanced at her a few times before shifting his gaze toward Xynthia.

She had a refreshing scent akin to an untainted flower that outmatched Imani and the others completely. None of the celebrities could compare to her looks, figure, or aura.

Kade excitedly pushed Imani away and stepped forward, squinting.

He smiled, completely ignoring Harvey standing in the back.

“These men around you are all bark, cutie. None of them can do anything!”

“But I’m different ! I’m a responsible man!

“If you stay with me, I’ll show you what it’s like to have a real man! I’ll make you run wild!

“You won’t bear to love another man in your life!”

Kade revealed a wretched expression as he reached out to caress Xynthia’s cheek, chuckling like a demon at the same time.

Chapter 4570

Chapter 4570

Harlem’s body shivered the moment he heard that name.

“You’re…” he said, shocked. “You’re from the Hermit Family… You’re Young Master Bolton!”

Simply put, Kade was Azrael’s son.

Imani, Kenzie, and Dayla were completely unfamiliar with Kade, but they knew that Azrael was basically the king of Golden Sands. Since Kade was Azrael’s son, his status and influence in the city were apparent.

Realizing that fact, a chill ran down Imani and everyone else’s spine. Not only did they get in deep trouble, but they had no good way of getting out of it either.

If they were slightly careless, they’d lose their lives in an instant.

At this moment, they were clearly nervous.

The six Hermit Families of Golden Sands were extraordinary beings, after all.

Only Harvey was looking curiously at Kade with narrowed eyes. The man did look quite like Azrael… But he was just too arrogant!

Harlem was now shivering in his boots. “Are you Mr. Bolton’s son?”

“Oh? I didn’t think that a high and mighty man from Country J would know about me!”

Kade said.

“What? Are you going to say that the Bolton family belongs to your country as well?

“Are you trying to get together with us?”

“You’re joking, Young Master Bolton!”

Harlem replied, looking horrible.

“I wouldn’t dare! I wouldn’t do that at all!

“People like us love showing off without any actual knowledge!

“Please don’t mind us!

“Besides, you’re a prominent figure! I’m sure you have a big heart!

“Give us a chance! This has nothing to do with me!

“This b*stard was the one who caused all this! You should just kill him instead!

“I’ll pretend I never came here in the first place!”

Harlem didn’t care about his own reputation anymore. Showing off in front of Kade would mean certain death!

“Heh, heh, heh! You people sure know how to talk!” Kade said.

“That said, words alone wouldn’t be enough!”

“You can’t get out of the situation so easily.

Only I can decide your fate!”

Kade instantly kicked Harlem to the ground; he didn’t even care that Harlem was from Country J, or the fact that Harlem was a star.

In his eyes, they were nothing but people to trample on.

Harlem was trembling uncontrollably.

“Young Master Bolton, Country J’s Chamber of Commerce has a branch in Golden Sands. The director is…”

“If you don’t want other people to go down with you, then you better keep those names to yourself.”

Kade kicked Harlem once again.

“If not, I can guarantee the people backing you won’t be able to stand up for you, either.”

Harlem froze instantly; his heart could feel nothing but despair. He never thought he’d end up like this just as he was about to experience the peak of his life.

Kade’s eyes lit up when he saw Imani and the other women. He sized them up, and smacked his lips in joy.

“Nice! Women from the entertainment circle really are better compared to runway models! Not bad! Not bad at all…”

Chapter 4569

Xynthia’s eyes twitched when she saw all this happen.

She had experienced much, but her instincts were still repulsed by the sight of violence.

Harvey smiled at her and held her hand, giving her comfort.

The man with a buzz cut grabbed a few more beer bottles and smashed them all on the lackey’s head, cracking his head to the point his face was completely covered in blood.

The man then clapped his hands, signaling for the others to take a turn after he was done.

Harlem, who had been constantly boasting about his own strength, watched with frantically twitching his eyes. He had no courage to stop the situation.

“My lackey has done the wrong thing! He deserves to get beaten up like this!”

Harlem gritted his teeth and took a step forward, trying to save his lackey from the verge of death.

“That said, you should stop while you’re ahead. He belongs to Country J, after all.”

“He has diplomatic immunity!”

“If he dies here, we’ll all get in trouble!”

Harlem still had a bit of courage for now.

After all, not only was he a huge celebrity, but he was also from Country J. His reputation would be completely tarnished if he didn’t step up.

Even so, he was scared!

The man with a buzz cut grinned, and waved his hand to stop his posse from doing anything.

Harlem couldn’t help but get a little smug when he saw that. He knew he should’ve revealed his identity in the first place.

He was convinced the man didn’t want to have a diplomatic dispute.

Harlem thought that he was being given respect.

“Country J?”

The man narrowed his eyes, smiling faintly.

Harlem puffed up his chest, thinking that the man was actually afraid of him.

“That’s right! We’re all from Country J!

“Our influence here is incredible!

“If you show me respect, we can be friends.

“We’ll definitely see each other in the future, after all…”

Slap!

The man squinted, then took a step forward to slap Harlem in the face.

“You…!” Harlem exclaimed, covering his horrible expression.

Slap!

The man swung his palm once again.

Harlem screamed in pain.

“You’re crossing the line!

“Us from Country J are no easy targets!”

Slap!

The man swung the back of his palm this time.

“I’m crossing the line?

“You people are no easy targets?

“How dare you show off like that here?

“How dare you go against me?

“Whether we let you off the hook or not…

“Isn’t up to you!

“I have the final say here!

“How dare you flaunt your strength when I haven’t even said a word?

“Huuuh?!”

The man took a step forward before slapping Harlem around, making his head spin as he stumbled back. His face was completely swollen; he was filled with rage, but he wouldn’t dare talk back.

“I’m Harlem Lee. I belong to the Golden Studios. If you can just show me some respect …” he said, lowering his head.

“Later, I’ll introduce you to a few celebrities”

***

Slap!

The man with a buzz cut revealed a cold expression.

“Respect?

“What kind of respect can a man from Country J get here?

“I’m Kade Bolton. I don’t need to give that to you.”

Chapter 4568

Any person could tell that the man with a buzz cut was not to be messed with.

Harlem’s anger instantly vanished. He was a little scared, and his body trembled. He had a bit of strength in Golden Sands, but he was no match against a clearly prominent figure.

Harlem’s lackey saw a bunny girl in the crowd, and his expression changed instantly.

He had seen her when he was getting the Ace of Spades before. He could tell she had a little too much to drink.

After seeing her exquisite face and alluring figure, he dragged her to the restroom and tried to take advantage of her. She seemed cooperative at first, but she was completely infuriated when he couldn’t even last a single minute.

When she said she was going to settle the scores sooner or later, the lackey didn’t put those words to heart. He thought she was just angry because of embarrassment.

He didn’t think she would actually bring her people here.

He quietly stepped back, his legs slowly getting limp.

“Who are you people?”

Harlem was a little afraid, but he’d never back down after all that showing off. He felt like backing away, but he had to speak up. He gritted his teeth.

“I don’t think I’ve gone against any of you.

What’s the meaning of this?”

“The meaning?”

The man with a buzz cut grinned wickedly.

“Times sure have changed. I didn’t think someone in Golden Sands would talk to me like this…”

He turned to the bunny girl.

“Find the b* stard who did it to you! Make him suffer!”

The bunny girl showed a furious expression, and grabbed a beer bottle. She then walked toward Harlem’s lackey, and slammed the bottle on his head.

Bam!

The lackey was covered completely in blood.

Even if he was a high and mighty citizen of Country J, he wouldn’t dare fight back. He forced himself to smile.

“You call yourself a man from Country J, repeatedly boasting about your strength…”

the bunny girl said.

“And now, look!

“You’re all bite and no bark!

“You should just stay away from pubs!

“I told you I’d settle scores with you! Do you believe me now?”

Everyone instinctively looked at the lackey.

They weren’t idiots; they naturally knew what the bunny girl was talking about.

‘How useless can he get? He did those things to a woman and got called out for it?’

‘This is just embarrassing!’

The lackey’s body shivered in fear.

“I’m sorry! It’s all just a misunderstanding!”

he said in a shaky voice. “I’ll work harder !

Maybe I’ll last longer this time…”

“A misunderstanding?!”

The man with a buzz cut stepped forward, and slapped the lackey in the face.

“I paid so much money to bring this woman from an international auto show. It’s already bad enough that you played with her, but you’re asking to do it twice?

“What?

“Do you think I do charity work here?

“You think my women are yours to play with over and over again?”

The man sent the lackey flying with a single kick; he slammed right into a marble pillar, and slowly slid down. It was a miserable sight Imani and the others were scared witless.

They all hid behind Harlem, afraid they’d get involved.

Chapter 4567

“You better know what’s best for you, Xynthia!” he snarled. “You’re drinking no matter what! As for you!”

Harlem glared at Harvey.

“Filth like you has no right to talk in a place like this!

“Either you stand on the side like the good live-in son-in-law you are, or you get the f*ck out of here!”

Since she was caught in a tough spot, Xynthia tried to mediate the situation.

“I can drink this, Mr. Lee. No need to make it harder for Harvey…”

“What’s the point of saying all that now, Xynthia?”

Harlem’s face darkened; he naturally planned to chase Harvey out before anything else.

“Let me tell you something, kid! You only got the chance to sit here and drink such expensive wine because of Xynthia!

“If that wasn’t the case, you wouldn’t have that right-even if you work for eight different lifetimes!

“A peasant using his sister-in-law’s reputation should know his place before coming here!

“At least have some self-awareness, alright?

“If there weren’t a lot of people here – if I didn’t care about my image, I would’ve sent you flying with a single slap!”

Harlem glared coldly at Harvey. There were people who wanted to cause him trouble before, but what happened to them in the end?

All ended up dying horribly.

‘It’d be good if Harvey knew what was best for him…

‘If not, I wouldn’t mind teaching him a good lesson!’

Harvey was unperturbed. “Do you really think you’re that impressive just because you’re an actor from Country J?”

Harlem sprung out of his chair furiously.

“Say it again if you dare, you b*stard!”

Bam!

Suddenly, a beer bottle flew straight ahead.

Harvey instinctively stepped back, pulling Xynthia into his arms. A fragrant smell wafted in the air. Soon after, the bottle smashed right against Harlem’s head.

“Aaagh!”

Harlem screamed in pain while covering his bloody face, his expression wretched.

The glass shards scattered all over the marble table. It was a complete mess.

Imani and the others quickly stumbled out of the way.

Because of their fear, their makeup was slightly ruined. The foundation melted and dripped all over the ground.

Imani immediately exploded in anger.

Which one of you b*stards was it?!”

“Talk! Who is it?!” Harlem yelled angrily.

“I’m giving you one minute! Get out of here and kneel!”

“If not, I’ll let you know what it means to suffer for going against me!

“B*stard!”

“Heh, heh, heh! Not bad. You’ve got guts! No wonder you’d dare go for my woman.”

A group of sinister-looking people appeared, grinning menacingly. Their clothes were all custom-made from all sorts of luxurious brands. Eight hostesses in tube tops could be seen behind them as well.

A young man with a buzz cut was standing in front of the group. He had a soft smile, but it instilled fear in people’s hearts. He’d make people shiver with just a single glance.

Behind him stood a huge group of fierce men with chiseled abs, all suited up.

Chapter 4566

Chapter 4566

Harvey was never interested in people like Harlem. Still, he couldn’t help but laugh and feel sympathy after seeing Harlem make a fool out of himself.

After all, there were only a few people in the world who could bluff this hard.

“You’re so awesome, Mr Lee!” Imani gushed.

She looked at Harlem admiringly.

“I’m not asking for Hollywood, Mr. Lee! I just want a small award!”

“Mr. Lee! I want to be the leader of an idol group!”

“Mr. Lee! I want to be a singer! I want to make a few hit songs!”

The women all flocked toward Harlem, as if they wanted to melt into his body.

The men watched, thirsty for the same experience.

All eyes were locked onto Harlem.

After all, his strength was perfectly demonstrated the moment the women decided to swarm him.

That said, he had no interest in them; he had already slept with all these women. They were nothing to him.

However, nobody in the industry had ever slept with a goddess like Xynthia-let alone him.

Legends said that she was backed up by Kaizen Group’s owner.

Harlem would get so much street cred if he actually slept with a woman like her!

Imani and the others knew exactly what Harlem wanted.

“You see it too, right, Xynthia? Mr. Lee’s been treating you so well!”

“You should at least pay your respects!”

“Let me tell you! Drink the alcohol, or don’t even think of landing the role as the female lead!”

“Yeah! You can’t act like this, Xynthia!”

“It’s just a glass!”

“Think of your future! Why would you go against him?”

“We all want to drink the Ace of Spaces, but he wouldn’t let us!”

“We never got the chance, but you don’t even cherish the opportunity!”

“This is just infuriating!”

Everyone kept coercing Xynthia. Some tried to force her outright, while others tried to tempt her with shallow promises. They were dead set on keeping Xynthia in the spotlight.

Xynthia’s eyes twitched frantically. She clutched the glass, gritting her teeth. After all, she had already drank so much.

“Enough!” Harvey said. “She’s almost drunk! I’ll take it for her. I’ll even take three glasses!”

Harvey didn’t want to see Xynthia like this.

He quickly walked forward, then grabbed the glass from her.

“I’ll drink first. You can join in whenever.”

Harlem’s expression changed instantly.

“You b*stard! What right do you have to talk to me like that?!” he screamed in anger, throwing his glass to the ground.

“We’re prominent figures of Golden Sands’

entertainment industry!”

“Who are you?”

“What right do you have to drink with us?”

“You’re completely unworthy!”

Xynthia quickly spoke up.

“My brother-in-law’s just worried about me, Mr. Lee. Don’t mind it.”

“This is just who I am. I respect people who give me respect,” Harlem said coldly, “but if someone disrespects me, they’ll know regret soon enough!”

Chapter 4565

Chapter 4565

“Let me tell you something !” Harlem went on.

“With just one word from me, you can be the female lead!”

Harlem showed a smug expression, as if he had unlimited resources.

“You may not know this, but the owner of Golden Studios is none other than the wife of Golden Sands Bank’s owner, Lola Hoffman.”

“I have a pretty good relationship with her, too!”

“She treats me like her own little brother!”

“She’ll listen to whatever I say!”

“You’ve all heard of Leona Foley, right?”

“That young lady wanted to be in the entertainment industry, but she had no acting talent.”

“That was why I asked to make her the chief geomancy expert of another company under Mrs. Hoffman, the Golden Estate.”

“All she did was talk about house layouts, but she was able to get more than a hundred and fifty thousand dollars in just a month!”

“This is the extent of my power!”

Harlem’s smug look grew.

Imani, Kenzie, and Dayla froze. Then, they screamed in disbelief and admiration.

“Are you that powerful, Mr. Lee?!” they exclaimed excitedly.

Xynthia froze.

“There’s no way…

‘Even the lady of a Hermit Family treats him this well?

‘He even got the Golden Estate a chief geomancy expert so easily!

‘That’s impressive!’

The position for the chief geomancy expert seemed quite ordinary, but it was an extremely invaluable position for those in the real estate industry.

Leona’s words alone could decide the entire company’s roadmap.

It was an extraordinary position to have!

“Is that true, Mr. Lee?” Xynthia asked tentatively; she was shocked.

Seeing Xynthia’s expression akin to a scared deer, Harlem’s arrogance rose. He burst out laughing.

“Of course!

“If it wasn’t for me…

“She wouldn’t even have the right to be the Golden Estate’s chief geomancy expert!

“Not even if she’s the luckiest woman in the world!”

Harlem laughed his stomach off, as if he had total control of the entire world.

“I’ll be honest with you. I don’t have anything to do with Leona…

“But her grandfather Reece was a well- known geomancy expert.

“When I first entered the entertainment industry, he told me I’d become a star in the future!

“I owe him big time!

“Then, his granddaughter wanted to be in the entertainment industry. Unfortunately, she had no potential.

“That was why I arranged everything for her.

I even told Mrs. Hoffman that Leona was a descendant of the Fortune Hall, and that she definitely had knowledge of geomancy.”

“Because of me and the fact that she came.

from Fortune Hall, Mrs. Hoffman agreed to let her take the position.”

“You people definitely can’t be geomancy experts, but…”

“With me around, it’ll be easy for you to land more roles and get more awards, and become stars!”

Harlem looked as if he was very capable. He even showed everyone Lola Hoffman’s number, just to flaunt his strength.

Seeing this, Harvey could barely hold his laughter.

Chapter 4564

“You’re so nice to me, Xynthia ! You made me so happy, too!” Harlem said.

“Since that’s the case, there’s something I have to tell you.”

Harlem, who was now half-drunk, undid a button off his shirt. He leered at Xynthia with a perverted look.

“In my eyes, you’re pretty experienced. Your resume’s great, too!

“Still, Golden Sands Bank’s resources are just too tempting!

“When the movie’s done, it’ll be broadcasted all over Country H.

“No matter who it is, the female lead of the movie will definitely blow up!

“Normally speaking, there would be tons of people trying to get the spot. You wouldn’t even get your turn!

“But that’s fine. I have a lot of influence in the Golden Studios!

“If I want to, even the studio’s owner will show me respect!

“And if you get the role, your fame will skyrocket! Maybe you’ll be in Hollywood for an award after two years!”

While Harlem was busy talking, his lackey brought out a bottle of wine. The stench of his hormones was apparent, but nobody knew what he had been doing.

Harvey glanced at him calmly, then frowned.

“What took you so long?” Imani complained.

“We’ve been waiting for you!”

Imani grabbed the Ace of Spaces and popped off the cork. Then, she poured out a few large glasses.

“Come on, Xynthia! For you landing the role as the female lead!”

“You’ll have a bright future ahead of you!

You’ll become a big shot sooner or later!”

Harlem exclaimed.

He gave Xynthia a glass, grinning.

Xynthia shook her head.

“I can’t anymore, Mr. Lee,” she said. “This is a little much. I’ll actually get drunk!

Maybe I should get tea instead.”

“You’re an adult, Xynthia!” Harlem said gloomily when he saw her reject him.

“You can’t be so immature!

“It hasn’t even been that long!

“We’ve only had a few glasses!

“Since you can’t drink anymore, I’ll respect your decision.

“We can’t waste the Ace of Spades now, can we?

“We’ll stop after the bottle’s finished.

“Besides, I came to toast you. It’d be disrespectful of you to decline!

“If a newbie in the industry can’t even show me respect, how am I supposed to survive in the future? Don’t you think so?”

Harlem swirled his glass around, his eyes narrowed. He was clearly angry.

Imani and the others exploded immediately.

They acted as if Xynthia was being rude for not accepting the drink.

“You’ve already drank so much, Xynthia !

Don’t let it all be for nothing!”

“Yeah! You’re about to become a star! If you don’t drink, how are you supposed to socialize in all sorts of events in the future?”

“Don’t worry, we’re all here for you. Even if you get drunk, we’ll send you home safely.”

Harvey scowled; he was about to step up, but “Drink it already, Xynthia! In the future, nobody in Golden Sands’ entertainment circle can go against you!” Harlem exclaimed smugly, thumping his chest.

Chapter 4563

Chapter 4563

Seeing his lackey grabbing the drink, Harlem instantly moved next to Xynthia. He casually swigged at his wine glass with a smile.

“Oh, Xynthia. Since you’re in the entertainment industry now, you should know about the rules as well.

“You’re from Mordu’s circle, but you keep taking roles from people from Golden Sands.

That’s a little inappropriate.

“Simply put, you’re crossing the line.

“For things like this, you need people from a higher position to speak for you. If not, you’ll be in deep trouble.

“Your dear brother-in-law isn’t that person.”

Harlem looked meaningfully at Harvey.

“Am I wrong?”

To put it bluntly, Xynthia requested for the meetup. Thus, Harlem didn’t mind being more direct.

Harvey smiled.

“You’re exactly right, Mr. Lee. People like me aren’t destined to be in the circle.”

“Heh…”

Harlem couldn’t help but chuckle after hearing Harvey’s words.

He had seen quite a lot of useless people in his life, but it was his first time seeing someone like Harvey.

“Come on, Mr. Lee! What’s the point of talking to him?

“You’re just wasting your time!

“Come on, let’s have a drink!”

Imani she raised her glass in front of Harlem, giving him a seductive look as she.

did so. Kenzie and Dayla walked over to have drinks with him as well.

They kept pushing their bodies to Harlem while repeatedly sucking up to him, hoping he’d introduce more roles for them.

Not only was Harlem from Country J, but he was also a popular celebrity.

More importantly, he had some influence in the city. It’d be easy for him to raise a small celebrity with just one word.

Because of that, these three internet-famous celebrities were dying to have him take advantage of them.

Harlem was delighted to have them suck up to him. He waved his hand, and called his scoundrel-like friends to eat with him.

Everyone was very lively.

They secretly gave Harvey and Xynthia a few drinks, to show the sincerity of their friendship. However, any sane person could tell they were desperately trying to get the two drunk.

Red wine, beer, and even cocktails were sent Harvey and Xnythia’s way.

Normally speaking, people with bad tolerance would pass out easily after drinking all that.

Imani occasionally looked at the bar, wondering why Harlem’s lackey was so slow.

Xynthia wouldn’t normally drink. However, she felt that it was inappropriate for Harvey to take everything on his own on this occasion.

Harvey narrowed his eyes. He could tell that these people had an ulterior motive.

If not for that, they wouldn’t have tried to deliberately chase an outsider like him away.

Harvey wanted to get Xynthia out of this place, but she waved his hand to show that she was fine. At the same time, she signaled for him to stop meddling.

Harvey sighed; he knew he couldn’t stop her.

Xynthia seemed like an innocent young lady, but she also had her older sister’s pride. If he took her out of the bar, it’d only make her unhappy.

Chapter 4562

Chapter 4562

“Sigh! Are live-in sons-in-law these days so ignorant?”

“Did you forget the rules of society after being kept your entire life?”

“Thank goodness Mr. Lee’s so calm and composed. Any other person would’ve beaten you up by now!”

Imani, Kenzie, and Dayna glared disdainfully at Harvey. They were clearly disgusted by someone like him showing off in such a way.

In Golden Sands’ social circle, rich heirs of wealthy families wouldn’t hesitate to pamper celebrities. And yet, what happened?

Harlem frowned. What a joke!

Imani and the rest kept glaring scornfully at Harvey.

“What do you mean by that, Mr. Lee?”

Xynthia roared.

When she heard everyone insult her brother- in-law, her expression turned awful.

“Harvey’s a live-in son-in-law, but what does it have to do with you?

“He loves my sister too much! That’s why he’s the way he is!

“More importantly, he never asked for your money!

“Why must you insult him?!”

Kenzie and the others locked eyes, scowling.

They didn’t think Xynthia would be so protective of Harvey.

‘This is bad…’

Harlem’s face darkened slightly. Harvey was being such a nuisance! He had been treating Xynthia so well, but she never gave him a second look.

‘What right does a mere live-in son-in-law even have to be looked up by such a goddess?

What kind of sick joke is this?”

Harvey didn’t want the mood to be tense.

He took a sip of bottled water, and said calmly, “No need to be so angry, Xynthia.

They’re right; I’m just a nobody. You don’t have to argue with prominent figures like them for me.”

Xynthia was speechless when she heard this.

She knew he liked to lie low, so she had no choice but to sigh.

“Fine! I’ll do as you say.

“But mark my words!

“It’s not that Harvey doesn’t want to go against you people.

“He’s doing this for me!

“If you people keep this up, I’m done with all of you!”

“Of course, of course! We won’t do it again.”

Imani quickly stood up to mediate the tension.

“Come on! We’re here to have a good time, right?

“There’s no need to get angry over such a small thing!

“Hey, you! Go grab the Ace of Spades. Let’s have some fun!”

Imani gave Harlem a few playful looks.

Harlem’s lackey chuckled. He looked meaningfully at Harvey before heading to the bar.

He could tell what Imani wanted to do-she wanted both Harvey and Xynthia drunk.

Imani wanted Harvey to make a spectacle out of himself. As for Xynthia, Harlem would have a chance with her if she was completely intoxicated.

Kenzie and Dayla covered their mouths, and giggled.

Xynthia didn’t even realize that she had become the main dish at that very moment.
