Chapter 5445
“You’re a being little rash, Sir York.
“You shouldn’t have done that.
“At least, not in front of Young Master John.
“After all, you could’ve used the check to delay us.”
Kairi Patel cut Harvey York a piece of beef before letting out a sigh.
“Delay him?
Harvey York gave a chuckle.
“Why should we even do that?
Kairi stood frozen.
“For the Patel family and the six Hermit Families, it’s good to have some time to recuperate.
“But have you forgotten? Damon John’s about to take office.
“After the ceremony, the royal court would officially appoint him as the city’s first-in-command. Everything would be set in stone after that.”
Kairi’s expression changed.
“Are you saying Blaine didn’t just come here to talk?”
Harvey smiled.
“Why would one of the top-rated young masters easily show his weakness?
“He wouldn’t give up until he pulled out every trick up his sleeve.
“He’s trying to create a diversion by humbling himself.”
Kairi furrowed her eyebrows.
“So, how do we stop him?”
“Stop him?
Harvey again let out another chuckle.
“Now, why would we do that?
“I say we pick a few antiques from Arlet Pagan. We’ll give Damon an impressive gift when he rises to power.”
Kairi froze before showing a profound look.
Outside, a Toyota Alphard drove out of the alley and away from the Golden Sands Hotel when Blaine stopped looking behind him.
A blonde woman sitting in the back finally opened her eyes.
“How’s the situation, Young Master John?
“Did he leave with the check?
“What’s his flight number?
“I’ll get someone to blow it up.”
Karina Joyner showed a calm expression and a fierce look.
She knew the Islanders had suicide bombers with them.
If Harvey actually boarded the plane, then it would be all too easy to make him die a horrible death.
Blaine sighed.
“Not only did he not take the check, but he also tore it apart in my face.
“It’s clear that he will fight us to the death.
“I hope the Locke family can handle the situation for the John family. The family can only smoothly rise to power if that were the case.
“Of course, I guarantee the Locke family’s benefits will only increase after this.
“I believe you’d be able to feel my sincerity.”
Karina coldly chuckled after hearing Harvey rejected the money from Blaine.
“I knew that the bastard wouldn’t give up that easily.
“After all, he’s capable of much more when he never hesitated to disrespect me!
“How dare he?!
“Since you still remember your promise, then you shouldn’t worry!
“I also won’t forget our mission.”
Then, Karina dialed a number.
“You’re good to go!”
