Chapter 3961

Chapter 3961

“Leave! We don’t welcome you here!” Eden had a prideful look when he saw Harvey’s “miserable” expression.

“For Ellen’s sake, I’ll let you off the hook for now!” “That said, don’t blame me for what happens tomorrow!” Harvey glanced at Ellen without saying a word; he wasn’t going to go after Eden for her sake, but…

If Eden was going to cause more trouble, Harvey wouldn’t mind dealing with Eden.

“Harvey, wait!” When Harvey was about to leave, Ellen remembered something important.

She waved her hand to gather the crowd.

There was a brief hesitation on her face, but it was soon replaced with determination.

“Eden’s my boyfriend.

You’re a good friend of mine, Harvey, and so is Katy!” “T know you and Katy don’t think too well of the Cobb family.

I know you’re planning to open up your business to go against them when they’re celebrating their anniversary.” “1 know that you gave Katy the original formula for the Cobb family’s Silver Elixir, too…” “But for my sake, can you settle this peacefully?” “Please give Eden the formula, Harvey.” “He’ll give you money that you’ll never earn your entire life.

So much that you won’t be able to spend all of it even if you want to!” “we’ll just bury the hatchet after that.” “Pll still help Katy out with her work.” Naturally, Ellen was filled with guilt after seeing Eden on the brink of death.

Thus, she hoped that she could get the formula back for Eden.

That way, Eden’s position as the family’s successor would be set in stone.

“What? The Cobb family’s medicine formula?” Eden froze, and then scoffed coldly.

“] don’t know how you stole the family’s formula, Harvey.” “But for Ellen’s sake, I won’t argue about it.” “You need to hand it over right now!” “T can give you a hundred and fifty thousand dollars! We’ll bury the hatchet right now!” “I can get Grandma Cobb to take Katy back in the family, too!” “Listen, I’m giving you a lot of respect here.” Harvey only smiled faintly at the arrogant Eden.

“I stole your family’s formula, you say?” “You’re going to let me off the hook, you say?” “You’ll even pay me a hundred and fifty thousand dollars?” Eden puffed up his chest.

“That’s right! Now, accept my generosity!” “Or are you saying that much money isn’t enough?” “Well, that’s only natural! You country bumpkins have always been ridiculously greedy!” “How about this? [’ll make you rich immediately.

I’ll give you 1.5 million dollars right now!” Eden put on a kind look, as if he was being very generous.

The young masters and wealthy ladies glared disdainfully at Harvey.

‘As expected from a kept man…’ ‘Not only is he clinging onto women for his own good, he’s even selling out his own woman for such little money.’ ‘It’s rare to see someone this shameless!’ “Excuse me.” Right when everyone thought that Harvey was going to accept the money, Harvey spoke up calmly.

“T don’t need that kind of money.” “The formula has nothing to do with your family, either.” “As such, I’m declining your offer.” “T owe Elder Cobb and Katy a favor.” “For me, paying them back is much more important!”

Chapter 3960

Harvey looked at Ellen’s miserable expression, and nodded.

None of this mattered to him, anyway.

Ellen let out a sigh of relief after receiving Harvey’s answer.

“I’m happy I got to know you, Harvey,” she said seriously.

“I’m thankful you’ve been by my side as well.”

“That said, I still want to be together with Eden.”

She then walked toward Eden before putting on the Pigeon Egg Ring, a faint smile on her face.

“If you do anything out of hand from now on, Eden, then don’t blame me for what happens next!”

She then leaned into Eden’s arms with a fulfilled expression.

“I got it!”

Eden cried.

“I’ll do everything my princess says!”

Eden completely ignored the pain on his face before sweeping Ellen off the ground and kissing her cheeks.

He then glared at Harvey, as if he had already won.

‘Why’s a kept man like him trying to go against the young master of the Cobb family?’

‘What a joke!’

‘Doesn’t he know his limits?’ Eden was planning to slap Harvey around to vent his anger after sending Ellen away.

Ellen, on the other hand, looked at Harvey with an apologetic expression.

She decided to forgive Eden because she truly loved him…

Other than that, Noemi had been pestering her the entire time.

Besides, Harvey was completely inferior compared to Eden.

He could never go against the successor of one of the South Sea’s great families.

Ellen believed that there were things only obtainable by birth…

And that there were things that were out of anyone’s reach otherwise.

In Ellen’s eyes, Harvey could never hope to have the things that Eden already had.

“Finally, a happy ending for the couple!”

“Please, give them your applause!”

After seeing the lovebirds in each others’ arms, Valery quickly led the crowd to act accordingly.

Someone even gave a gesture before balloons and flowers were seen all over; the entire place was as beautiful and romantic as it could’ve been.

Ellen was filled with bliss, but she still instinctively looked at Harvey.

In her mind, Harvey was probably feeling down about the situation.

Thus, she wanted to pay him back.

She didn’t think that Harvey would still be standing still with his arms crossed, looking completely emotionless, as if none of this mattered to him.

His calm expression annoyed Ellen somewhat.

Normally speaking, when a beautiful and rich woman slipped away from one’s grasp…

In any case, Harvey should’ve been angry about it.

‘Is he not resentful about this?’ ‘Doesn’t he feel any remorse?’ ‘Am I worth nothing to him since he’s so calm about it?’ ‘Or is he trying to play hard to get?’ Meanwhile, the beautiful women were all glaring disdainfully at Harvey.

They believed that he was just pretending to be calm.

‘He’ll probably cry himself to sleep later!’ ‘A country bumpkin has no right to fight for a woman against a true young master, anyway!’ ‘All he can do is just stare! What else is he even capable of?!’ ‘He’s just filth! He’s completely useless!’ “Congratulations, Ellen! I’ll be heading off now.”

Harvey watched calmly before leaving the place.

This entire celebration had nothing to do with him, but he didn’t want to ruin it for her sake.

Chapter 3959

“I’m fine, Ellen.I almost died, and my face and neck are hurting like Hell!”

Eden was actual scum; he could clearly tell that Ellen was getting soft.He didn’t keep going against Harvey; instead, he used the opportunity to hold onto Ellen’s soft hand with a miserable look.

“Did you know? All this pain is still nothing compared to the pain of losing you!”

“If you forgive me, I’d be willing to get beaten to death or crippled, let alone endure this kind of pain!”

“You’re extremely important to me!” Eden’s acting was immaculate.

“Please give me another chance, Ellen!” he exclaimed.

“My brother challenged that man for you even though he knew that he was a savage, Ellen!” Valery added quickly.

“He still gave his all to fight, even if he knew that he was going to lose! Can’t you see how brave he is?”

“Look at him!”

“My brother’s been pampered his entire life!”

“And yet, he was willing to give up his life just for you! Are you still not going to forgive him after this?”

“A man is willing to sacrifice his own life just for you! You need to cherish him!”

Ellen hesitated; she was completely tangled in her feelings toward Eden and Harvey.

On one hand, Harvey was her good friend.

On the other hand, Eden was the man she loved; she couldn’t make a choice.

Eden coldly chuckled at Harvey, and seized the opportunity.

“Please, come back! I can’t lose you again!”

“I.I.I love you for the rest of my life! I swear!”

Eden pulled out a ring with an even bigger diamond, his face a heartbroken look.

“My god! That’s the Pigeon Egg Ring! That thing alone is thirteen carats! It’s worth hundreds and thousands of dollars at least!”

“That’s one of the most well-known diamonds of the South Sea! I didn’t think he’d bring something like this here!”

“He had this ready for Ellen?! This is insane!”

“He’s giving his all for the sake of love!”

Under Valery’s lead, a few wealthy ladies screamed in shock; there was admiration and jealousy on their faces.

The feelings were all naturally directed toward Ellen.

Ellen was quite surprised, but she had her fair share of money as well.

She had hoped someone would propose to her with the exact same ring…

But she didn’t think that Eden, who had never really cared for her, would remember such a thing.

She now believed Eden had always been listening, and that he knew exactly how to treat her.

Ellen was moved; she thought that Eden was completely different from how he was before.

Sensing that her heart was being moved, Eden quickly exclaimed, “Ellen, I swear! I’ll stay by your side no matter what happens from now on!”

“No matter rich or poor, I’ll protect and take care of you until the end of my life!”

“And if I look for another woman in the future, then let me be struck by lightning!”

Eden’s expression turned tender and affectionate.

Meanwhile, Ellen’s expression kept changing; she walked toward Harvey without answering Eden right away.

“You won’t hate me no matter what, right?” she said after a moment’s hesitation.

“You’d still be my good friend, right?”

The people around were all looking at Harvey disdainfully.

‘Even if he’s filled with resentment, what can a kept man like him do about it?’

Chapter 3958

Chapter 3958

“You shouldn’t be that reckless, Harvey.”

After seeing Eden’s bright red neck, Ellen was heartbroken; she couldn’t help but chide Harvey angrily.

“Eden’s a young master who’s used to being pampered.He isn’t like you; you’re used to things like this since you were a kid.”

“you almost killed him just now.You were being too harsh on him!” Harvey smiled calmly.

“He insulted my country and took action first.I only defended myself.”

“So what if he did? He wasn’t insulting you! That doesn’t even matter!”

“Besides, you were the one who provoked him and said that he wasn’t worthy to fight you!”

“Eden wouldn’t say things like that if that wasn’t the case.”

“He’s been living a pampered life; he’s used to everyone spoiling him! He only got a little reckless after you challenged him! That was why he did and said those things!”

“He isn’t what you think he is…”

“So you’re saying it was my fault?” Harvey sighed.He was staring at a woman who had finally lost herself.

“You’re saying that I shouldn’t have come; that I shouldn’t be pretending to be your boyfriend, nor should I have fought back when he came at me?”

“you know that’s not what I mean, Harvey.Stop twisting the facts here, alright?”

Ellen was filled with hatred when she saw Eden being lifted off the ground.

“No matter the case, you shouldn’t have been so hard on him! You’re just an outsider! You can’t afford to go against the Cobb family! I’m saying all this for your sake!”

Ellen was heartbroken when she saw Harvey almost kill off the man she cherished.She started regretting bringing Harvey here in the first place.

At the same time, she was strongly against Harvey being this harsh towards Eden.

Harvey narrowed his eyes before smiling faintly at her.

“you’re saying that he can hurt me however he wants…”

“And I have no choice but to endure everything, right?”

Ellen hesitated for a moment before she let out a sigh.

“My mother was right, Harvey.”

“There are classes in this world.”

“There are things you’re born with…”

“And there are things that you can never even dream to have.”

“You can’t compare yourself to Eden.”

“Even if he kills you, all he needs to do is pay a small fine.”

“But if you even hurt him, it’ll be really bad for you…”

“It’s fine though; I’ll talk to him.You’re my friend, so…”

“It’s fine,” Harvey replied calmly.

“I get what you mean.”

Ellen was only trying to say that Harvey and Eden were people from two different worlds…

And that Harvey was just completely outmatched.

Harvey treated Ellen like a true friend, but he felt disappointed when he finally saw her true colors.

“I’m sorry, Harvey; don’t be like that.”

Ellen hung her head low.

After a moment, she instantly left Harvey and charged into the crowd to check on Eden.

“are you alright, Eden?”

She pulled out a fragrant handkerchief to wipe Eden’s blood from the corner of his mouth.

Chapter 3957

Chapter 3957

Eden crawled off the ground while covering his face, pointing an accusatory finger at Harvey.

“H-How dare you sneak up on me like that?!” he screamed through gritted teeth.

“you’re shameless!”

Slap! Harvey calmly swung his palm forward.

“Well? This doesn’t count as sneaking up on you anymore, right?”

Slap!

“You’re actually challenging me when you’re this bad?”

Slap!

“I told you you have no right to fight me.Why didn’t you believe me in the first place?”

Slap!

“You have no right to insult my country with such standards!”

“You’re not even worthy!”

“I told you to kneel! Don’t you understand me?!”

Harvey kept relentlessly insulting Eden while slapping the latter around like a ragdoll.

Eden rolled around the training hall in circles before slamming into the weapons rack in the corner.

A lot of the weapons fell right onto him soon after, hitting him repeatedly.

It was a horrible sight.

Valery, along with the other young masters and wealthy ladies, were bewildered; they all stepped back in utter disbelief after seeing what had happened.

“I’ll kill you! Mark my words!”

Eden’s reputation was completely ruined; he gritted his teeth and picked up a dagger from the ground before charging right toward Harvey.

“Raaargh!”

However, Harvey calmly took a step forward and held Eden up by the neck.

“Do you honestly think you can just show off however you please when this is how you fight? I can strangle you to death right now if I want to.”

Harvey applied more force as he spoke.

Eden’s face was bright red before it gradually turned purple.His hands were wriggling around as if he was a drowning fish.

The people around were covering their mouths in shock; they wouldn’t even dare stop Harvey from doing anything.

Even the disciples couldn’t come to their senses.

At this very moment, Harvey felt a sharp pain on his back.

He felt someone swinging a wooden bat at him at full force.

Harvey instinctively looked down, and saw Ellen hugging his arm with a miserable look on her face.

“Don’t kill him, Harvey…Let him go…”

Harvey frowned and threw Eden aside.

Eden fell to the ground and coughed out blood, a horrible look on his face.

Ellen quickly came to her senses after seeing Eden completely fine.

She shrieked in fear, and immediately dropped her bat.

“I’m so sorry, Harvey! I didn’t mean to…”

“I was worried you’d have to go to jail if you kill Eden…”

Ellen constantly stepped back as she panicked; she wouldn’t even dare look Harvey in the eye.

Harvey calmly glanced at the bat on the ground.

The bat had snapped in half; he wasn’t hurt at all, but it was clear that Ellen used all of her might to swing the bat at him.

No matter how stubborn Ellen may seem, she still had a special place in her heart for Eden.

Harvey didn’t care too much about it; he didn’t want to get involved with Ellen and Eden’s affair in the first place.

That said, he wanted Eden to pay the price for insulting Country H.

As for Ellen, he decided to let her off the hook as she was a friend who had done him a favor before.

Without a second thought, Harvey took a deep breath and looked at Ellen.

“It’s fine.I’ll let this go for your sake.”

Chapter 3956

Chapter 3956

Harvey remained emotionless, while Eden was filled with baseless confidence.

On the other hand, Ellen quickly held Harvey back.

“Don’t fight him! You’re no match against him!” she whispered.

To Ellen, Harvey was completely inferior compared to Eden.

Eden was the Cobb family’s young master, after all, it would be as easy as drinking water for him to take out an outsider like Harvey.

Ellen was planning to use Harvey to rile up Eden, but she didn’t want to get Harvey into trouble either.

“What? You only know how to hide behind women now? You’ve spent too much time being kept, I see…”

“You don’t even have the balls to step up!”

Eden had a disdainful look when he saw Ellen trying to protect Harvey

“No wonder people from the Island Nations keep looking down on your people!”

“I can see that now!”

Harvey’s gaze turned cold after hearing those words.

He raised his head before glaring at Eden, who was acting all high and mighty, with narrowed eyes.

“You shouldn’t spout nonsense like that, Eden,” he hissed icily.

“I’ll give you a chance for Ellen’s sake. Kneel and apologize.”

“I’ll let you off the hook after that.”

Harvey didn’t mind people insulting him, but…

He wouldn’t allow anyone to insult his country.

Eden froze, and his face darkened.

“Come again?”

He slowly tightened his fist before cracking the bones all over his body threateningly, as if he was ready to kill Harvey with a single punch.

Ellen was getting worried.

“Enough, Harvey! You can’t beat him.”

“It’s not about that. It’s about him apologizing,” Harvey replied.

“People should admit to their own faults.”

Harvey glared coldly at Eden.

“I’m giving you three seconds. Are you kneeling or not?”

“Three…”

“Two…”

“One…”

“Enough showing off already, you b*stard!”

Eden was furious; unbridled rage filled him when he saw Harvey’s cocky attitude. He instantly swung his leg right at Harvey’s face without any hesitation.

His kick was extremely fast; the force was as powerful as a bullet being ricocheting out of a rifle.

The disciples of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance watched from afar with shocked gazes.

They didn’t think that a rich playboy like Eden would be this strong.

The kick alone could shatter a brick into pieces if it landed!

Even ordinary people with some practice would get a concussion after getting hit, that is, if they didn’t die from it.

‘The kept man’s finished for provoking Eden like that!’

“Look out!” Ellen instinctively exclaimed.

“I told you not to go against him, Harvey!”

“Why are you like this?!”

“You…”

Harvey took a step aside before swinging the back of his palm forward.

Slap!

The slap landed on Eden’s face, sending him slamming into the ground.

“Aaagh!”

Eden screamed in pain and stumbled to the ground.

He couldn’t believe what had just happened; shock and disbelief filled his eyes as he stared incredulously at Harvey…

Chapter 3955

Chapter 3955

After making such a huge fuss about everything, Harvey finally turned around and looked at Eden.

He let out a sigh. “You don’t have the right to duel me.”

“Forget about it.”

“Think this through.”

The bustling training hall was instantly dead silent.

Everyone was completely shocked as they looked at Harvey, thinking that he was the world’s biggest idiot.

Eden was from one of the South Sea’s great families; he had been trained by the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance since he was a child. Out of the younger generation, he was quite the capable fighter.

Even ordinary disciples from the organization were no match for him.

‘How dare this country bumpkin even talk to Eden like that?!”

‘Who gave him the courage?’

Eden froze as well; he had seen a lot of show-offs in his life, but it was rare for him to see someone acting as pompous as Harvey.

People who didn’t know would think that Harvey was actually capable of something.

Valery couldn’t help but chuckle disdainfully.

“You really think you’re impressive just because you had the upper hand back in the Cobb family’s villa?”

“We were just caught off guard last time!”

“If my brother really wants to, he can kill you off with a single slap across the face.”

“Forget it,” Harvey said while glancing at Valery.

“He’ll look bad if I do that to him instead.”

“Your family too.”

“Do you think you can even do that to me?”

“You think I have no right to go against you?”

Eden finally came to his senses; he did suffer some losses against Harvey last time…

But after thinking about the situation a few times, he came to the conclusion that Harvey only gained the upper hand because Harvey snuck up on him. 2

After the incident, the prideful Eden quickly got a few experts from the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance to teach him a few more tricks for a few days straight.

When Harvey was showing off everything that happened last time, Eden couldn’t help but feel like he heard the biggest joke of the century.

“Do you even know what you’re talking about, Harvey?”

“I’m the young master of the Cobb family! I’m destined to become the head of the family!”

“I’ll be taking control over billions of dollars worth of assets in the future! I’ll become a top-rated figure in this city!”

“And you? What else can you do other than being kept?”

“Don’t you know that you only got in here because of Ellen?”

“Without her, you can’t even stand outside the front door!”

“Katy, the woman you look up to so much, is already cast aside by her own family!”

“You have no authority, nor do you have any money! How dare you say that I have no right to fight you?!”

“At least use your brain when you talk!”

“Look at yourself in the mirror! How do you still not understand your worth?”

Eden glared disdainfully at Harvey.

“Ask everyone here-ask my sister or Ellen!”

“They’ll tell you you’re just some kept man! Compared to the successor of the Cobb family, you’re just inferior!”

“You’re the one who’s unworthy, not me!”

Chapter 3954

Chapter 3954

“I already regret everything I did, Ellen!”

“I would never do something that stupid ever again!”

“I made a mistake every man would make after getting too drunk!”

“So, you need to forgive me!”

Eden knelt on one leg before revealing a diamond ring in his hand.

“Come back, Ellen. Come back to me!”

“Look! I even have the engagement ring ready!”

“I only want you in my arms! I’ll make you the happiest woman alive if you become the family’s lady!”

“What’s the point of regretting everything now, you b*stard?!”

Ellen shot him a fierce look and threw the engagement ring to the ground.

“Think about what you’ve done!”

“If you meet another good woman, then you better treat her properly!”

“It’s no use saying anything now!”

Harvey glanced at Ellen; she seemed really adamant on not forgiving Eden.

However, he could tell by her tone and attitude that she was starting to change her mind.

That said, this was Eden and Ellen’s personal problem; Harvey didn’t like Eden at all, but he wasn’t going to say anything about the situation either.

After all, this was Ellen’s choice.

As a friend, Harvey would only help if she needed it without crossing the line.

“Harvey! It’s because of you that she’s treating me like this!”

“You damn kept man! Not only did you force Katy to break off from the family…”

“You’re even forcing Ellen to break up with me!”

Eden pointed furiously at Harvey while screaming at him, as if he was the main perpetrator.

“For the Cobb family and Ellen, I decided to challenge you to a duel!”

“Right here, right now!”

“Do you dare?!”

“If you beat me, I swear to everyone here that I won’t pester Ellen anymore! I’ll even give you 1.5 million dollars!”

“But if you lose, you’ll have to leave Ellen once and for all!”

Eden was burning with righteous fury.

“Do you dare, Harvey?!”

“Do you dare fight me like a real man?!”

A lot of beautiful women were completely infatuated after hearing Eden’s righteous words.

“Whoa! Now, that’s a real man!”

“He’s giving it his all to fight for his woman!”

“Charm and dedication like this are enough to move the entire world!”

“Do your best, Young Master Cobb! We support you!”

A lot of women started cheering for Eden.

The people who were jealous of Harvey started fanning the flames as well; they wanted Harvey dead more than anything.

Ellen’s face darkened at the sight.

She knew Eden wasn’t trying to apologize at all; rather, she was being forced to accept his proposal.

She immediately held Harvey’s hand and said, “We’re leaving, Harvey! I feel dirty breathing the same air with people like these.”

“I’ll take you somewhere else instead.”

Eden had a horrible look on his face after hearing those words.

He quickly stepped in front of the two, glaring coldly all the while.

“Do you dare or not?!”

“If you think the money’s not enough, I’ll double it for you!”

“Well?!”

“Are you going to step up like a man, Harvey?!”

Chapter 3953

Chapter 3953

Harvey watched calmly, he had no interest in getting involved with the two’s relationship.

Eden looked at Ellen with tender affection, but Ellen instinctively moved away from his outstretched hand.

She walked toward Harvey before exclaiming coldly, “Stay away from me! We’re not that close!”

“Besides, do you think I’m stupid enough to believe a double-crossing scum like you?!”

“I already have a boyfriend!”

Ellen quickly used Harvey as a scapegoat and blinked at him to signal her intentions.

“I won’t leave Harvey for you!”

“I’m a loyal woman. I’m completely different from you!”

Harvey wanted to explain the situation, but he could only sigh when he saw Ellen’s miserable look.

“It’s been a while, Young Master Cobb.”

“You?! You’re Ellen’s boyfriend?”

Eden’s face darkened at that instant.

“Aren’t you Katy’s little kept man?”

“Now, you’re going after the Moreno family too?”

“How shameless can you get?!”

The place fell into an uproar; the crowd stared at Harvey with a disdainful expression.

“A kept man is trying to fight for a woman against someone like Eden?”

‘Even if Ellen’s completely blind, she shouldn’t pick a man like that!”

“Shut up! All of you!”

“I won’t allow you to embarrass my boyfriend!”

“He’s a real man! He’s not what you think he is!”

Ellen was exhilarated when she saw the look on Eden’s face.

She shot him a fierce glare while leaning provocatively onto Harvey’s arm.

“I believe him!”

“We fell in love with each other at first sight. This is true love!”

“He’s a good man! He wouldn’t be someone else’s kept man!”

“Don’t even try insulting him. Even if he’s really being kept by Katy…”

“I’m perfectly fine with that!”

“Katy and I are good friends! We’ll just share him!”

Everyone was shocked at hearing those words.

A lot of men were starting to get jealous, and immediately glared at Harvey.

‘He managed to get his own harem by just being a kept man?! He must be the king of all kept men!”

The women glared disdainfully at Ellen, thinking that she had lowered the standards of all the ladies in Blackburn City by doing this.

“We all belong in the same circle, Ellen, so stop pretending already. You’re embarrassing yourself and everyone else here.”

Valery took a step forward, her face filled with arrogance.

“I know you pretty well.”

“You’ve always liked my brother. Harvey’s just a tool here for you to get my brother angry! There’s no way you’d let a country bumpkin like him be your boyfriend!”

“Even if you’re willing to let that happen, your mother wouldn’t think the same!”

“Even if your mother would do something like that, your family wouldn’t!”

“Don’t ruin your entire life just to take your anger out on someone, Ellen.” “My brother admitted to his mistakes. Just give him a chance already.” “If he makes the same mistake again, I’ll take care of him for you!”

While speaking reason with a righteous expression, Valery tried to use Ellen’s frail emotions against her.

Chapter 3952

Chapter 3952

Half an hour later, Harvey and Ellen arrived at the Blackburn City Budokan.

The place was under the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance. Other than training their disciples here, they would also enroll some rich playboys in order to earn a few thousand more dollars every month.

A lot of Martial Arts Alliances would do such things; the things they would teach were all basics that the entire world would know.

Ellen happily told Harvey that she signed up for a crash course for a hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

Harvey heard mostly everything from Ellen; those who enrolled would need to take two to three classes every week for the fundamentals of martial arts.

After that, a so-called certificate of completion would be given as proof of their training here.

Harvey was speechless; if he was willing to do something like that, the Martial Hall would be on the market in less than a year.

While Harvey was busy pitying the rich who had been tricked, Ellen dragged him into the training hall.

Dozens of rich playboys and wealthy ladies were seated there.

They were all dressed in exquisite robes, sparring or sitting on the ground while chatting.

That said, the spars looked just like children playing; there was no point to it at all.

“It’s been a while, Ellen. What a coincidence.”

Aman in an exquisite robe walked over with a group of people. He strutted forward as if he was the boss around the place.

When he saw Ellen, he had a tender look on his face.

“I’ve been thinking about you for the past few days, Ellen. Without you, my world’s bleak.”

“You should come back to me.”

Harvey frowned, surprise coloring his face.

The tall and handsome man was none other than Eden from the Cobb family.

Valery was also standing in the crowd. She raised her thumb up, as if Harvey was done for.

After seeing Eden showing up and saying such shameless things, Ellen’s face darkened.

“You’re not with your one true love, yet you’re spouting nonsense in front of my face?”

“I told you! We’re already done!”

Ellen looked like a princess in a fit of rage, completely ignoring the prince in front of her.

“I know what I’ve done wrong, Ellen.”

“I got drunk and made a big mistake!”

“Come on, give me one more chance!”

“I know my mistake now!”

Eden took a step forward, reaching out to Ellen’s hand with a pitiful look on his face.

“I swear in front of everyone that I’ll spend my whole life loving, cherishing, and taking care of you!”

“I’ll never make you sad ever again!”

“I swear by my family’s name!”

“If you forgive me, you’ll be the family’s lady!”

“I’ll give you the entire world!”

Eden had an affectionate look; along with his intentionally kempt hair and good looks…

He looked like a third-rate idol filming a sappy movie.

A lot of beautiful women watched him with bright eyes, mesmerized.

After all, his looks and background were completely outstanding.
