Everyone looked at the 20-dollar bill on the ground. Their derisive looks clear for all to see.Only Harvey York's expression was still as calm as ever. "Elder Lee, if I were you, I would pick that 20-dollar bill up and swallow it bit by bit. That way, I can pretend this has never happened. Or are you telling me that the representative position for the Alliance is worth only this much?""Why? What do you mean? Do you think it's too little when I have to squeeze 20 dollars from my retirement fund?" said Gaspar Lee with a dark expression."I'm going to be transparent with you. No one managed to get anything from me since the day I joined the society. You should be grateful that you even got 20 dollars from me. This is how much respect I have for you… And you will take it whether you like it or not. There's no room for negotiation."You should feel thankful that I've learned to control myself during these past few years. If it were me from the past, I would have killed your entire fam

Gaspar Lee boasted he could do whatever he wanted in the Country H Martial Arts Alliance.He boasted that he had garnered some respect in the entire country. He never knew there would be a time when he would be taken advantage of like this.But the most important part about all of this was not the loss he suffered but the fact that he himself had suffered such humiliation.He was at such an advanced age and called himself the seneschal. He also maintained communication with all the major training grounds.How was he supposed to interact with them after suffering such humiliation?However, despite his regrets and resentment, Gaspar dared not say anything anymore.That was because he finally realized it.The others might show him some respect, but Harvey York never cared about giving him any respect at all."It's a good thing that you know your place," said Harvey when he saw how Gaspar suppressed his dissatisfaction. Then, Harvey covered Gaspar's face with the tissue paper he ha

When Caelum Hughes heard what Harvey York had to say, his heart skipped a beat.He originally had complete confidence in how much power Hummingbar had. But looking at Harvey's attitude and how the others looked at them like watching a show, he suddenly realized something.Had someone used him and Hummingbar as some kind of a tool?And it was not a tool to take Harvey down, but just a tool to test Harvey.And the truth was that not only did Hummingbar lose, but they also lost completely during this round of testing.From this day forward, Hummingbar would not even hold the same level of authority within the Alliance as before.The moment that thought crossed his mind, he could feel a chill run down his spine.Caelum no longer held the same arrogance the moment he realized that.Harvey smiled. "Looks like you finally understand. I guess you do have the capacity to learn. Now, I'll give you one more chance. Apologize to me and crawl back to whatever hole you come from.""You…" Ca

"Huh?" Charlotte Padget's face flushed when she heard what Harvey York said. "Mr. Representative, I…"Harvey did not take note of the changes on Charlotte's face and simply continued with the conversation as he enjoyed the landscape painting hanging on the wall. "While I'm a representative of the Alliance, I'm unfamiliar with its inner workings."But you, on the other hand, are very familiar with it. I admire the way you work and your personality. That's why I want you to work for me. In other words, I want you to help me understand the situation within the Alliance. That's the reason I'm telling you all this."Does that make sense?"After listening to him, Charlotte realized what Harvey meant but felt a little disappointed for some reason.However, she would not dwell on her awkwardness, especially as a warrior. "Since you appreciate my work, I'm more than happy to work for you. But on one condition, Mr. Representative."Harvey spoke with a smile. "Speak.""Once you are fully i

"There she is! It's Mandy!""That bastard! How dare you appear before us, you greedy little whore!""Compensation! We want compensation!"At this moment, the exclusive elevator used by the CEO of the ninth branch's company opened. Mandy Zimmer came out under the protection of eight bodyguards. The moment she appeared, the crowd was immediately riled up.One of the middle-aged women dressed like a prim and proper lady threw the Chanel purse in her hand at Mandy and cursed at her as she pointed her finger at Mandy. "I shouldn't have trusted you, Mandy!"You bought all the bedding from me, and I even gave you a discount. But you sold me a property that has excessive formaldehyde! I've only stayed there for one night, and I'm feeling painful all over after it triggered an allergic response… And you even destroyed my face!"Your company's greed is impossible! You don't care about anything so that you can earn more money! What you did is going to get you into prison! "I don't care wh
