There was a smile on Lexie’s beautiful face.“Seniority-wise, you’d have to call me Aunty.“I wouldn’t murder someone for the sake of silencing them!“I know the Islanders are scheming people, and you’re a young man with almost no experience!“That was why I showed up to kill these people!“I saved you! Even if you’re not going to thank me, at least don’t slander me like that!”Lexie showed a pitiful expression when she looked helplessly at Harvey. Both her face and figure were no less than impeccable. Any man would be fooled by her cutesy act.Harvey squinted at Lexie, then smiled. “As expected from the lady of Dragon Palace.“Not only are you a good shot, but you’re good with words as well.“I’m no match for you, after all.“That said, you’re a little slow.“The elder already told me what I needed to know.“We’re not done with this!”Harvey turned around with his arms crossed on his chest.Two people from Dragon Palace immediately stood in front of him, blocking his p

“As for Peyton, I don’t think this has anything to do with him either.“He was either set up…“Or he was forced.“After all, the character of these old folk isn’t something that the young ones can just imitate.”Harvey told Kairi everything that happened, as if he wasn’t the one who experienced it first-hand.Kairi frowned.“Your impressive fighting skills will only make Blaine want to kill you more.“You have a close relationship with the Patel family and the six Hermit Families.“Without any of us realizing it, you’ve become the spokesperson for our interests.“The John family wants Golden Sands for themselves. Blaine will not rest until you die.”“If he’s really involved with Evermore and the Island Nations, I won’t let him off the hook,” Harvey replied.Kairi took a deep breath, nodding. “By the way, I heard Mandy’s about to go to Wolsing.”Harvey burst out laughing.“Is that being advertised everywhere? How does everyone know about this?“Don’t worry; she’ll leave wi

“Since those two branches have been running their business abroad…“Out of the five major branches, those two are essentially working together. I heard that they came back in high spirits, determined to take the throne away from the main branch.“There’ll be conflict once we bump into them.”Harvey stopped in his tracks, and looked at Kairi beside him.“The princes of the overseas branch and the Gangnam branch are here?”Kairi nodded.“That’s right. Out of the five princes, they’re not the hardest to deal with, but they’re no easy targets either. They’ll be sure to show you just how powerful they are, too.“Make sure you’re prepared.”Harvey kept walking, smiling.“That’s not the point though, is it? You want me to break their spirits first. That way, nobody can make things harder for you during the banquet.“Are you that confident in me?”Kairi smiled, not intending of hiding her goal.“I wouldn’t bring you here as my partner if I wasn’t confident in you now, would I?“Ju

Rudy seemed like he was lecturing Titania, but he was speaking in a strange tone while grinning. It was obvious he looked down on Kairi, let alone Harvey.After hearing the identity of the two, the people behind Alfred and Rudy instantly shifted their gazes to Harvey.Everyone knew Kairi as the lady of the Patel family, and the strongest of the family’s main branch. She was most likely going to become the family’s next successor.That said, she would need to find a live-in son-in-law if she wanted to take over the family. She wasn’t allowed to be married into another family.According to the family’s rules, the man needed to be outstanding enough to fit Kairi’s identity.Everyone, including Alfred, was sizing up Harvey with judgmental and doubtful smiles. It was a shame; they couldn’t see anything special about him to be worthy of Kairi’s love.Titania believed that Harvey would starve to death even if he were to work in the fields.Without hesitation, she stepped forward before

Rudy froze; he was naturally affected by Harvey’s words.However, he came to his senses soon after. Without Alfred’s help, he would be the first to die if he actually fought for the throne. After all, the Gangnam branch was the worst one out of the entire family.“Stop trying to make us fight, Harvey!” Rudy exclaimed furiously, his expression dark. “I’m loyal to Prince Alfred. Both the overseas and Gangnam branches act as one! You think you can just break us up so easily? You underestimate us!”“Is that so?” Harvey shrugged, smiling playfully. “Since you like being Prince Alfred’s servant that much… How about you do me a favor and be Kairi’s servant instead? I’ll make sure to treat you well if you do.”“You…”Rudy was boiling with unbridled anger. Harvey was just a live-in son-in-law, and yet he was this proficient in crushing people’s spirits.Rudy would probably die from sheer rage if the conversation continued.Alfred put his cup down. He glanced thoughtfully at Harvey. “I
