Chapter 5749
Whitley froze.
She didn’t think that Harvey would dare speak up like this in front of Stefan.
Did Harvey have a powerful identity?
Maybe he belonged to a family more impressive than the outskirts’ York family. Maybe he was from the Yorks of Hong Kong!
If that wasn’t the case, he wouldn’t act like this in front of Stefan in the first place!
Billie’s eyes twitched; she couldn’t understand the man in front of her at all.
After thinking back for a moment, Nanako realized that Stefan had never been this respectful toward her, like the way he was to Harvey.
“It’s nothing.”
Harvey seemed quite casual about the situation.
“I heard that you’ve been supporting the Kawashima family, and signed a few cooperation agreements.
“A woman called Nanako is planning to drag me back to the Island Nations for a trial.
“She said that it’s because of me trying to drag Asher away. She said that you’re supporting her actions as well.
“Oh, Stefan. I didn’t mind you getting Asher to go against me… We’ll just have to see who gets the last laugh, right?
“That said, I despise people like Nanako the most. If I use the fact that you’re working with the country’s enemies… What do you think would happen to you?”
Stefan went dead silent. There was no sound, but everyone knew that he was in deep rage.
They were all glaring at Harvey, puzzled.
‘Isn’t he scared of challenging Stefan like that?!’
Miley’s heart skipped a beat.
Before Stefan rose to power… Accusations like that could ruin him! If they were proven true, the other consuls would kill him without Harvey even doing anything!
Stefan took a deep breath to hold his rage back.
“The Aenar Temple had never worked with the Islanders before.
“I don’t know that woman, either. If the Islanders are going against you, then you can just kill them! No need to hold back for my sake!”
Harvey smiled.
“Is that so? But Nanako’s causing me trouble in your own turf! Aren’t you going to deal with it?”
Stefan almost broke a tooth in frustration after hearing those words.
“Come! Send word! Any Islanders who cause trouble in the Aenar Temple’s turf…will be killed on sight!”
Clack!
The call ended soon after.
Harvey raised his head with a smile before looking at Nanako, ignoring the shocked gazes around him.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Nanako. Looks like your support’s no good after all! He even said to kill you people for causing trouble here!
“Tsk, tsk, tsk! I’d expect the word of a consul to hold a lot of weight! I wonder how he’s going to deal with you if you plan on challenging me.”
Harvey stepped forward, tapping Nanako on her beautiful face.
