Chapter 5539
Harvey York smiled.
“I wouldn’t say that.
“We’ve had our moments with the top ten families.
“Some members were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. It’s only natural for them to be a little cocky.
“Then again, at least they still have a bottom line.”
“A bottom line?”
Kairi Patel let out a cold chuckle.
“You don’t understand these people, Sir York. For them, the bottom line is just a line to be broken through.
“With enough benefits, they can surely disgust you with their actions.
“For example, Blaine…”
Harvey’s gaze turned dark after hearing that name.
Out of all the princes and young masters, he was the most outstanding.
That said, his ambition was so strong that he simply could not contain himself.
Evermore, America and the Island Nations were all deeply connected with him.
If Damon John rose to power, Blaine John would take control over Golden Sands…
The entire country would be in deep trouble if that were the case.
Harvey heaved a sigh.
“I managed to deal with the country’s trouble previously, and now I’m here dealing with the ones from inside…
“Big Boss sure has it easy, huh?”
“What did you say, Sir York?” asked Kairi.
“It’s nothing.
Harvey smiled before changing the subject.
“What of the Six Hermit Families?
“Are they here?
“This is a big day. Nobody should be missing on this, right?”
Kairi gave out a chuckle.
“Don’t worry about them.
“They’re in the John family’s residence with Mr. Eliel just this afternoon.
“Mr. Eliel will soon become one of the Nine Great Elders.
“With him, Damon wouldn’t dare do anything to the Hermit Families.
“As for the Patel family, with the position of the government’s second-in-command, nobody would go against them for the time being either.
“I’ve been thinking about it. You’re probably the only one capable of causing trouble tonight.”
“Isn’t that the whole point?
“Do we really want Damon to rise to power like this?”
Kairi merely chuckled.
Both sides had already been at war since way before.
It was only a coincidence that the conflict had managed to be suppressed until now.
And with Harvey here…
Even with the John family’s control, they could not guarantee everything to go smoothly.
After a few dozen minutes, the car came to the street in front of the John family’s residence.
The cars here could barely move. It was extremely slow traffic.
Harvey looked outside the window.
An unbelievable thought came to his mind.
‘The Two-Eyed Bead…’
There were legends of a bead that could control relations.
People had been causing conflict with each other all the time, and it was said the Two-Eyed Bead was used to better relationships despite that.
Even for unmarried people, the bead could also find their one true soulmate.
That said, it was all pure speculation without any concrete proof.
Then again, the records were still written that way.
Mandy had been desperately searching for the Two-Eyed Bead…
Maybe she wanted it for herself.
