Chapter 5782
An hour later, Harvey York left the police station unscathed.
Without him using his connections with Dutch Cobb, the Surrey family had already hired a few prominent lawyers from the outskirts to take care of the situation.
Harvey slapped Conrad Surrey in the face but did not hurt much despite the extremely humiliating action. Conrad simply did not have enough proof to sue Harvey in the first place.
That said, not only did Conrad intrude on the Surrey family’s residence, he even brought illegal firearms inside. Under these circumstances, the situation must be dealt with slowly but surely.
If not, Conrad and the others would need to be sent behind bars for a few years.
“I didn’t think you’d get dragged into the Surrey family’s business, Harvey…”
Harvey walked out the front door before the Surrey family quickly came over.
Lennon Surrey nodded at Harvey with a strange look.
“You really are impressive, but Conrad doesn’t have any decency. He will do everything he can to get what he wants,” said Aria Surrey.
“Why would you go against him like that?”
Ernie Surrey let out a chuckle.
“Don’t you know? One of Henrik’s disciples-that Creed guy…”
“That’s enough.”
Harvey immediately cut off Ernie before looking at Lennon.
“I’ll get straight to the point, Mr. Lennon.
“How much of what Conrad said was true?”
Lennon briefly hesitated.
“The family does possess three beads.
“Along with the Six-Eyed Bead and the two beads you have…
“We are indeed involved with six of them.”
“Three beads…
Harvey felt a headache after hearing that number.
“Many people are involved with the beads at this point. You can’t admit to having three, no matter what.
“Send them off as soon as you can.
“It doesn’t matter if you return them to their previous owners or donate them to the three great temples.
“In any case, you want everyone to know the beads have nothing to do with the family, despite what happened.”
Lennon froze.
“I understand.
“If you need to…”
“I was thinking of collecting all nine beads previously…
“But there’s no point in giving them to me right now. Not only would it not solve the problem, but your family would also be in grave danger.
“Right. Make sure that you announce every single donation to the public.
“Make sure everyone knows about this.
Harvey stared at the night sky.
“If not, even I couldn’t protect your family…”
Lennon paused before he looked in the same direction as Harvey.
A bright light in the sky was covered by a thick fog, instantly dimming the surroundings.
A storm was approaching…
Lennon felt confused when he glanced at Harvey at the corner of his eyes.
Was the enigmatic young man uninterested in the Nine-Eyed Beads at all?
