Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 3901

Chapter 3901

“I know you’ve been looking for your one true love, Katy.”

“But as the heiress of the family, you enjoy all the glory and riches that come with it as well as the responsibility of the family’s fate!”

“I won’t blame you for the things you did in the past anymore..

“Even after you’re married, I can still guarantee your spot as the head of the head house!”

Grandma Cobb showed a prideful look on her face, as if she was a generous woman.

“As long as you marry Young Master Padlow, we’ll have a strong ally on our side!”

“Do you actually think this man here truly loves you?”

“He’s only clinging to you for the family’s authority and riches!”

T’ll just give this man a hundred and fifty thousand dollars for him to run back to Country H.”

“We’ll settle everything just like this!”

“You don’t have anything against my suggestion, do you?”

Katy’s expression changed instantly.

Eden chuckled coldly and took a haughty step forward.

“Did you hear that, Katy?”

“Grandma Cobb’s generous enough to bury the hatchet. She’s not going to make it harder for your man,

either!”

“She’s just going to chase him away with some money.”

“You should be thanking her!”

“Accept the deal already! You won’t get another chance after this.”

“At this point, we’re all jealous of how good Grandma Cobb’s treating you!”

Valery smiled, looking sinister and heinous

Exactly! Young Master Padlow’s a little twisted. He likes to torture his women, and I heard that he has smallpox too…

“But he truly does love you from the bottom of his heart!”

“How can you bear to reject him?”

“For the sake of the family, you have to accept his love!”

Katy’s face was horrible.

“You can’t simply go back on your word like that!”

“Harvey was the one who fixed everything!”

“You have no proof that Gael did all this out of his own volition!”

“Have you thought about this for a second? How can a vengeful person like Gael be nice enough to do

this for us?”

“At least look into the situation before making any baseless assumptions!”

“You can’t believe his silver tongue without thinking!”

“You need to be fair about this whole situation, Grandma Cobb!”

Naturally, Katy was still hopeful that Grandma Cobb was just a little muddled and wouldn’t actually be as biased as she appeared.

“Shut up!”

Grandma Cobb snarled, cutting off Katy’s words instantly

You little wench!”

“How dare you try to lecture me?!”

“Enough of this! Who else do you want me to believe if not Gael?”

“Do you expect me to trust in this man here, who came out of nowhere?”

If someone like him can actually pull off something like this, why is he with you in the first place?”

“He wouldn’t need you to stand up and provide for him!”

“Even if Gael wasn’t the one who dealt with the problem, this man wouldn’t have anything to do with it either!”

“Grow up already, Katy!”

“You want me to look into the situation?!”

“You want justice from me?! Ha!”

Grandma Cobb narrowed her eyes disdainfully and looked around her

“Ask everyone here. Who do they think did the most in the situation?”

“If even one person here points at this man, I’ll acknowledge him right now!”

“Ask! See if anyone believes him!”

“Do it!”

Chapter 3900

To flaunt his authority and relationship with Gael, Eden turned on the speakers before dialing the number.

A cold and gloomy voice could be heard on the other side soon after.

“What now?!”

Gael was infuriated; he just got word that Trey managed to give the Cobb family their supply rights back.

His father was the vice leader of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance, but the top talent told him something that forced his father to give the supply rights back.

After getting Eden’s call, Gael was boiling with anger.

That said, he didn’t know what kind of connections the Cobb family had, so he didn’t dare lash out fully.

Eden put on a warm smile despite hearing Gael’s not-so friendly tone.

“Young Master Padlow! I already know about the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance giving us our supply rights back.”

“I know you did your best to help us out to convince Senior Padlow.”

“On behalf of Grandma Cobb and the family, we thank you!” Gael froze; he didn’t know what happened exactly, but he wouldn’t mind putting up a show after everything that happened.

“It’s nothing.We’ll all look bad if we fought for such a trivial matter,” Gael replied, as if he knew what happened.

“Say hello to Grandma Cobb for me.”

Gael then hung up on the phone after that.

Eden chuckled coldly and waved his phone around.

“You hear that? You hear that?”

“If it wasn’t for Young Master Padlow, we wouldn’t be able to deal with this problem!”

“You think you did this?”

“pss off!”

Harvey laughed coldly.

“you think he’s actually this nice? He’s clearly pretending!”

“what are you saying? You think he’s pretending?”

Valery shot him a disdainful look.

“Young Master Padlow is a disciple of the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance—he’s the son of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance’s vice leader! He’s an elite with high standards!”

“Only people like you would be this narrow-minded!”

“Do you think everyone is just as delusional as you? You think you have the power?”

“Let me tell you something! You don’t even have the right to be the family’s live-in son-in-law!”

“Yeah! Get out of here already! We’re already nice enough to let you off the hook!”

“How dare you keep pretending when you’re completely talentless?”

The people who came to their senses instantly screamed insults at Harvey.

They felt utterly humiliated after being scared off by Harvey’s tricks.

They wanted to chase him away and then cling onto Gael; they believed this was their best course of action.

The meeting hall was filled with chaos.

Grandma Cobb waved her hand with a dignified look.

“Alright!!! We’ve dealt with the problem!”

“Young Master Padlow showed us a great deal of generosity! We need to live up to his expectations!”

“How about this.??”

“Since Young Master Padlow is interested in Katy, we should just make her marry him!”

Chapter 3899

Chapter 3899

“How about this? Since the problem got solved after you pretended to make a phone call…”

“I’ll let you and Katy off the hook since you’re so fortunate!”

“Katy can continue being the head of the head house.”

“Nobody is allowed to speak about this anywhere else!”

“If not, I’ll call the cops on whoever that does!”

Grandma Cobb was a little shocked before, but she immediately remembered…

Eden had already made a few phone calls to beg people to help in the situation.

The people on the other side of the phone kept skimping over the subject, but Grandma Cobb was still hopeful.

Naturally, she would think that Eden was the one who dealt with the situation.

Katy’s expression changed; she didn’t think Grandma Cobb would go back on her word.

Without giving Harvey a chance to speak, Grandma Cobb glanced at Eden with a smile on her face.

“My dear boy! Why didn’t you tell me you’ve already dealt with the situation in the first place? You made me worried sick here!”

Eden froze for a moment before coming back to his senses.He was quick to take advantage of the situation.

“If I’m guessing correctly, Young Master Padlow must’ve been the one who helped us.The one who can fix the problem is the one who caused it in the first place, after all!”

“Senior Padlow only threatened to take away our supply rights because of his dear son.It’s only natural that his son would be the only person who could stop him!”

“Young Master Padlow sure is making me look good!”

“Not bad! Not bad at all!”

Grandma Cobb, expressing admiration.

“As expected from such a fine man!”

Grandma Cobb then glared disdainfully at Harvey.

‘He’s just a clown who’s trying to show off!’ ‘Does he think he could solve the situation all on his own? He clearly got lucky!’ ‘who does he think he is?’ At the same time, she glared at Katy in disappointment; she firmly believed that Katy was completely humiliating the entire family for bringing someone like Harvey home.

“Now that we know that this has nothing to do with you…”

Eden glared pridefully at Harvey.

“Should we proceed with breaking your legs then?”

Katy was worried sick.

Harvey gestured to Katy so she wouldn’t worry, then took a step forward with a cold look.

“You keep saying you were the one who dealt with the situation…”

“If that’s the case, then at least show some proof!”

“Proof? You’re asking me for proof?”

Eden scoffed.

“Why do I need to show proof to some lowly man like you?”

“That said, I’ll be generous just so you can finally admit to it yourself!”

“I’ll show you what it means to have connections and influence.Here’s your proof!”

Eden then took out his phone and proudly showed a phone number in front of everyone.

When everyone looked over, Gael’s name could clearly be seen on the screen.They all froze instantly…

‘Looks like Eden really does have a good relationship with Gael after all!’ Gael was a disciple of the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance, and the son of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance’s vice leader; his authority was immensely high..!

Chapter 3898

Chapter 3898

An elder desperately tried to control his emotions after making a phone call.

“Grandma Cobb, the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance made sure of it.We still have the supply rights, and they’ll come to inspect the goods this afternoon.”

The Cobb family trembled in excitement after hearing those words.

Not only would their trade be successful, they’d also be able to earn heaps of money; the entire family would be able to continue enjoying their glory and riches.

“How did he do that in an instant?!”

“We only used half of the cost to get the supplies! We’ll be rich if they actually buy them from us!”

“The dividends alone could last us six whole months to spend on whatever we want!”

The entire family had odd expressions when they looked at Harvey.

The disdain in their eyes was completely replaced by shock and disbelief, followed by the excitement of them getting filthy rich.

Grandma Cobb resentfully dialed a number.

After a moment, she immediately dropped her phone to the ground.She had mixed feelings about the situation; she felt happy, but she was also in utter disbelief.She couldn’t believe that Harvey was able to fix the situation with just a simple phone call.

Everyone’s mouths kept twitching as they stared at Harvey.

If they didn’t see and hear the entire situation for themselves, they wouldn’t have believed such a thing.

“Got anything else to say, Eden?”

Harvey took a step forward with a cold glare.

“I’ve dealt with your family’s problem.”

“I sold your goods before the expiry dates as well.Is there something you’d like to tell everyone here?”

Eden and Valery’s faces changed instantly.

They wanted to use this opportunity to kick Katy down so she’d never get the chance to rise to power…

Little did they know that things would turn out this way.

Katy looked at Harvey, bewildered.

‘As expected from Sir York to create miracles like this…”

‘Not a lot of people in Blackburn City could pull this off.”

“Grandma Cobb, you said that as long as I can deal with the situation…”

“You’ll let Katy become the successor of the family.”

Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Grandma Cobb.

“while Elder Cobb is still unconscious, you’re the master of the family.You have all the say here.You’ re not just going to deny everything you said now, are you?”

“You can’t, Grandma Cobb!”

Eden and Valery instinctively exclaimed, their faces a horrible expression.

“you can’t! Don’t let that b*stard become the family’s successor!” a few elders exclaimed after taking a step forward.

“Right! She doesn’t even care about the family in the first place! She has no right!”

“The head house had never contributed to the family’s cause! We won’t accept it if she becomes the successor!”

“Grandma Cobb! You can’t be reckless about this!”

“The bet doesn’t mean anything either! Harvey just got lucky!”

“Maybe the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance is just following through their contract for honor’s sake!”

“Don’t be fooled, Grandma Cobb!”

Grandma Cobb stood up before waving her hand.

“Alright! Alright! Enough!”

“The Cobb family has been looking for a lot of people to deal with the situation.

You were just lucky! You took advantage of the opportunity to fight back and act as if you were the one who actually fixed the problem.”

Chapter 3897

Chapter 3897

“Right! It’s settled!”

“I hope you don’t go back on your word.”

Harvey calmly took out his phone before dialing a number.

“He’s still trying to pretend? We’ll see how long he can keep this act up!”

“He thinks he can deal with the problem with just a single call? Who does he think he is? The prince of the royal family, or the young master of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?”

“Country H has been extremely powerful recently, but he’s still just an outsider! How dare he try to show off in our own country?”

“If he can actually solve our crisis with a single phone call, I’ll kneel right in front of him!”

Everyone scoffed when they saw Harvey calmly dialing his phone.

Nobody expected Harvey to actually do anything.

Harvey made the call soon after.

Beep, beep, beep!

“Who’s this?”

A young person’s voice could be heard on the other side of the phone; it was Trey.

“It’s me, Harvey,” Harvey replied calmly.

The top talent instantly shivered.He was still being very respectful despite not standing in front of Harvey.

“Do you have any orders for me, Sir York?”

“I heard the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance took away the Cobb family’s supply rights, and I’m really unhappy about that.”

“I understand!”

Trey replied without hesitation.

Harvey then casually hung up his phone.

The Cobb family looked at each other.

Valery froze before laughing icily.

“That’s it? At least put up a better show if you’re going to do something like this!”

Eden showed a mocking expression as well.

“You said you;re unhappy about this? You’re talking as if you’re their boss or something!”

“Stop pretending already!”

The others were glaring disdainfully at Harvey, thinking that he was just showing off for no reason.

“Are you trying to fool me?”

Grandma Cobb’s face darkened, and she chuckled spitefully.

“Come! Break his legs and make Katy sign the marriage contract!”

“what a waste of time!”

Everyone scoffed after hearing Grandma Cobb’s words.

‘what’s the point of all this?’

‘Does Harvey have a death wish?’ A few tall and strong security guards stepped out before cracking their necks, ready to cripple Harvey at a moment’s notice.

“You’ll have to get through me first!”

Katy’s expression changed and she stood protectively in front of Harvey.

A fight was about to break out of the meeting hall at any moment.

Bzzt, bzzt, bzzt! Suddenly, the phone of one of the family’s butlers vibrated violently.

The butler picked up his phone.

Then, his body trembled; he stood still as he exclaimed, “What?! We have our supply rights back?”

“They want the goods this afternoon!”

“They’ll bring the check, too?”

Dozens of people froze in an instant.

” I–Impossible!!!”

Eden and Valery’s expressions changed.

They quickly took out their phones before making their calls.

The elders did the same as well; the entire meeting hall was in utter chaos.

“What’s going on? What’s going on here?”

Even Grandma Cobb couldn’t keep her cool.

Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 3896

Chapter 3896

Naturally, the entire Cobb family didn’t think that Harvey had the power to do such a thing.

After all, they believed they had already figured out his background.

‘At the end of the day, he’s just a tourist from Country H.”

‘How can someone like that even deal with the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?”

‘Besides, he even hurt the organization’s top talent, Gaell

‘He’d be dreaming if he thinks that he can fix the situation at this point!”

“You want to deal with the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?”

Valery scoffed.

“You have no idea how deep the waters here are, yet you’re saying that you can fix this?”

Eden glared at Harvey as well.

“If you can deal with the situation, I’ll grovel in front of Katy as an apology. I’ll admit that everything I did today was out of impulse and wishful thinking!”

“Heh, heh! This kid talks big! He thinks he can just fix all of this?”

“Just look at him! I saw him staring at my legs just now! What does he think he can do?”

“Even the young masters from the Moreno family and the Lee family wouldn’t dare say something so absurd!”

“He’s just a country bumpkin! Where did he get all that courage from, anyway?”

“Sigh! This guy’s such a loser! He’s been looking at us the entire time!”

“He must’ve never seen women as beautiful as us!”

“He’s looking all over us! We’re suffering losses every single passing second!”

The crowd was ruthlessly insulting Harvey while shooting him disdainful looks.

The elders were glaring mockingly at him as well, thinking that he was just a people-pleaser trying to show off.

After hearing Harvey’s words, Katy froze and held his hand.

“Sir York, you…”

“Don’t worry, I can handle this.”

Harvey gently tapped Katy’s hand to comfort her.

He then coldly glared at Eden and the rest.

“I’ll ask you this again if I deal with the supply rights, you’ll let this entire situation go, right?”

“And it i can deal with your expiring goods, are you also going to credit Katy for it?”

Harvey took a step forward and glared fiercely at Grandma Cobb

“if your family wants to prosper, you should at least punish and reward everyone as necessary, right?

“You’ve been demanding Katy for a fair statement this entire time, but… ”

“What are you planning to give her if she deals with the situation?”

“You’re Harvey York, right?”

Grandma Cobb sat up straight before glaring disdainfully at Harvey. “Enough making a mess out of the entire situation. Are you a monkey?”

“I don’t know who gave you the courage to spout nonsense here…”

“But if you want to die so badly, I’ll grant you your wish!”

“Deal with the situation in front of the entire family if you can!”

“If you can do that, I’ll announce to everyone…”

“…that Katy will become the family’s next successor!”

“But if you can’t…”

“Not only will I send Katy to the Padlow family, I’ll also break your legs and throw you to the family as well!”

“Do you dare take the bet?!”

Naturally, Grandma Cobb didn’t believe that Harvey could fix the situation all by himself.

Even as one of the South Sea’s great families, the Cobbs were extremely terrified of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance.

‘What’s an outsider going to do about this problem?”

Is he going to run his mouth in front of the Padlow family?”

Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 3895

Chapter 3895

The crowd smirked at Katy and Harvey upon hearing Grandma Cobb’s words.

The elders of the Cobb family were glaring coldly at Harvey as well.

They wanted to see just what Katy’s man could do under Grandma Cobb’s pressure.

Everyone would be happy if Harvey couldn’t do anything; Katy would be sent to the Padlow family in an

instant.

“Do you want to get the supply rights back, or do you want to force Katy to marry Gael?”

Harvey glanced at the crowd with a mocking look; he finally managed to understand the entire situation.

Eden didn’t come for Katy this morning of his own will. Grandma Cobb was the one who instigated the entire thing.

“Grandma Cobb, give me three days to think. I’ll do my best to solve the problem.”

Katy took a deep breath; she would never marry anyone for no reason whatsoever.

“Three days?”

Eden instantly cut off Katy.

“You know that our supplies are about to expire, right?”

“We’ll be done for!”

“It doesn’t matter if you even solve the problem or not at that point!”

“Grandma Cobb! If it was up to me, I’d just throw her to the Padlow family right now! It’ll be bad if we keep stalling like this!”

Eden had a fierce gaze, as if he had total control over Katy.

“You…”

Katy was boiling in anger; if she was in Hong Kong and Las Vegas, people who talked to her this way would’ve been fed to the fishes already…

However, this was the Cobb family.

“Eden’s right! We bought supplies nearing the expiry date to save money!”

“According to the contract, it’d be fine if we exchanged the goods immediately…”

Grandma Cobb revealed a righteous look while looking at Katy.

“We can’t keep stalling now. We need to fix the problem as soon as possible!“

“If not, even if we get our supply rights back three days later, our goods would be expired by then!”

“We’d have to buy a new batch of goods if that were to happen! We’ll suffer!”

“Do you have any plans to fix this?”

“If not, you should just put your fingerprints on the marriage contract and send yourself to the Padlow family already!”

Grandma Cobb slammed her hand on the coffee table once more.

Katy’s face instantly lost all color; she didn’t think that Grandma Cobb would be so overbearing.

Even the third house’s stingy attempt at saving money was blamed on her.

According to the South Sea’s law, Katy would be a part of the Padlow family if she were to put her fingerprints on the marriage contract; she would have nothing to do with the Cobb family after that.

Katy was completely heartbroken when she saw Grandma Cobb’s cold smirk and everyone else’s haughty looks.

“Hold it!” Harvey exclaimed after taking a step forward.

“I’ll deal with every single one of you later for shifting all that blame to Katy!”

“I’m asking you this right now: if I can get your supply rights back…”

“Everything will be dealt with, right?”

“He wants to get the supply rights back?”

Everyone was dead silent. Then, they burst out laughing.

Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 3894

Chapter 3894

“As for the rules…”

“No matter how powerful your family actually is, you can’t just outrule the law now, can you?”

Harvey was giving Grandma Cobb no respect whatsoever.

“I’m only telling you this once…”

“I was the one who hit Gael. I was the one who broke his arms as well.”

“Katy had nothing to do with anything.”

“Eden took the opportunity to threaten a marriage between Katy and Gael. He wanted to rise within the family so he could kick Katy out!”

Harvey then glared at Eden.

“You can’t tell me you didn’t do everything for this exact reason.”

Eden’s face darkened instantly.

“What do you mean by that?!”

“Do you think Grandma Cobb would believe such a lie from a man like you?”

“I did everything for the sake of the Cobb family!”

He screamed in righteous fury, desperately trying to hide his true intentions.

“I have no ulterior motive!”

“If I did, I’d be struck by lightning!”

Eden started to panic. He did all this to Katy for two reasons.

Number one: Katy’s presence threatened him as soon as she came back. He was scared she’d rise to power as soon as Dean was healthy enough to support her.

Number two: if Katy actually married Gael, not only would Eden be able to earn the trust of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance, he’d also have the right to completely discredit the head house whole.

That way, the family’s authority would be in his hands sooner or later.

He would become one of the South Sea’s top rated young masters!

The Cobb family expressed admiration when they heard Eden’s righteous words.

‘As expected from the most outstanding young master of the third house…’

Since the head house only had a single child, and with the second house not having enough accomplishments to change anything, Eden was naturally the best pick in the entire family.

‘Harvey’s just an outsider! How dare he question Eden’s loyalty to the family? What a joke…”

“Grandma Cobb! Senior Padlow showed us these pictures this morning! That woman did all this…”

“Or rather, the man did all this just like he said!”

“Senior Padlow’s already blaming us for his son’s injuries!”

“We need to give him a statement, no matter what!”

“How are we supposed to survive without the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance?”

“We’ll all go bankrupt!”

Eden wailed in sorrow before showing a few pictures on his phone to Grandma Cobb.

Not only was Gael was sporting a horrible look on his bandage-covered face, both of his hands were also restricted by plasters. It was truly a miserable sight.

Katy frowned.

“Gael asked for this himself, Grandma Cobb!”

“Shut your mouth!”

Grandma Cobb immediately cut off Katy after seeing the pictures.

“It doesn’t matter if he asked for this or not!”

“What’s important is that he was crippled!”

“Because of this, the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance took our supply rights away!”

“I don’t care who’s right or wrong. I’ll let this pass if we get the rights back.”

“If not, just as Eden said, you’ll have to marry Gael to fix this problem!”

Grandma Cobb furiously slammed her hand on the table, her eyes cold.

Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 3893

Chapter 3893

“This will negatively affect our core interests. My brother and I are terribly anxious about it!”

“That was why we went to Katy’s home, hoping she’d give us a proper explanation or apologize to the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance…”

“But throughout the entire process, we were a little reckless as we couldn’t control our emotions properly while we were teaching Katy a lesson.”

“That said, we did everything for the sake of the entire family!”

“And then what happened?! Her savage partner beat us all up just because he can fight!”

“More importantly, he even slapped our elders down without hesitation! He’s completely disrespecting

us!”

The two elders with swollen faces stood up to show everyone what Harvey had done.

Katy stepped up after hearing those words.

“Things didn’t happen this way, Grandma Cobb…”

“You b*stard!”

Grandma Cobb didn’t even give Katy a chance to explain herself and swung her cane at Katy’s leg.

“It’s been so many years, yet you still don’t care one bit about the family!”

“Our family lost so much because you walked away from your marriage with the royal family!”

“And now, you’re going against the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance for a man?”

“You even let him run around beating up the entire family?”

“How reckless can you get, Katy?!”

Katy didn’t dare move out of the way since her own grandmother was the one who swung the cane; she almost fell to the ground when the cane hit her leg.

Harvey’s eyes turned cold; he lifted Katy up and pushed the cane away.

“Why are you only listening to one side of the story?”

“I did beat up Eden, but it was because they were recklessly dragging Katy away and forcing her to marry Gael. They were about to drown her if she didn’t agree!”

“They even threatened to feed Elder Cobb poison!”

“I only did this to save him.”

“As the leader of the family, you need to remain neutral if you want to uphold justice!”

Grandma Cobb glared coldly at Harvey before laughing cruelly.

“Who even are you? When did you get the right to speak in front of the family like this?”

“What right do you have to even bult in our family affairs?”

“Do you really think you’re the family’s live-in son-in-law?”

“Why don’t you take a look in the mirror first? Look at yourself! Do you think you’re worthy?”

“You don’t even have the right to shine our shoes!”

Grandma Cobb immediately swung her cane toward Harvey’s face.

Harvey slapped the cane away without even hesitating.

Grandma Cobb almost lost her balance and fell from the chair.

She was boiling with anger, she felt utterly humiliated.

“Look at you! Look who you have with you?! How dare he do this to me?!” she exclaimed shrilly, turning toward Katy.

“Didn’t you teach him our family rules before even bringing him home?”

Before Katy could retort, Harvey waved his hand.

“Me being Katy’s man or not is none of your business. The family has no say either. Only Katy and I do!”

“Don’t you understand the meaning of freedom to love in this day and age?”

Chapter 3892

Chapter 3892

Half an hour later, Harvey and the others went to the Cobb family’s meeting hall inside the villa.

The entire place was built around mountains and rivers; the entire building had a vintage feel to it.

Different types of culture were perfectly blended into one; the builders’ ambition could clearly be seen through the immaculate designs.

It was a shame the Cobb family was on the verge of falling apart.

The meeting hall was about three thousand and two hundred feet wide. An expensive chair was set right in the middle of the hall.

Rows of wooden chairs were placed on both sides; it was an extremely lavish sight.

Harvey and the others stood still as footsteps could be heard from the back.

Six people showed up from behind the hall. After a while, an old lady with white hair stepped out.

She was a little small; her back was slightly arched, and she had a cane in her hand. She seemed quite scrawny, but her gaze was very sharp.

She had a cold look on her face as she glared at Harvey; he immediately frowned, feeling as if he was being stung by needles.

Without question, this was Grandma Cobb-Dean’s very own wife.

A dozen other people showed up after that.

They were all standing in a corner peeking their heads out; when they saw Harvey and Katy’s face, they showed utter disdain.

A few beautiful women were pouting in secret, thinking that Katy was either stupid or had insanely low standards to get someone like Harvey as her man.

The Cobb family would never allow Katy to get Harvey as their live-in son-in-law; they believed that he’d ruin the family’s extravagance.

“Grandma Cobb!”

Eden, Valery, and the elders stepped forward before bowing respectfully to her.

Grandma Cobb casually sat in her seat, ignoring the others.

She then calmly took a sip of some tea that was already prepared for her.

After closing her eyes for a moment, she had a cold gaze as she said, “The Cobb family has an immense reputation for being one of the South Sea’s great families.”

“But how did we manage to get this far?!”

“With the family united as a whole! We all did this together!”

“But look at you all!”

“You’re causing so much trouble for the head house! Do you want the entire city to mock us?”

Grandma Cobb slammed her cane furiously to the ground.

Everyone was completely frightened when they heard the loud bang.

Grandma Cobb was satisfied with their reaction; she narrowed her eyes while letting out a few coughs,

and then she said, “You people need to explain everything to me!”

“This is what happened, Grandma Cobb!”

“The vice leader of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance visited us this morning.”

“He said that Miss Cobb beat up Gael for a man yesterday, in the Blackburn City Hospital. She also humiliated his organization.”

“As such, he decided to take away the family’s supply rights and forced us to explain her actions to him.”

“If we don’t, he’ll cancel every other collaboration project we have!”

“Our family’s business has been plummeting, Grandma Cobb. We aren’t as strong as we are before.”

“If we lose our chance to work with the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance, we’ll be in deep trouble!”

Valery immediately explained the entire situation before the others could even open their mouths.
