“How did that happen? I heard that you were very fond of Mrs. Whitley Smith.” Jordan wrinkled his forehead. He was too shocked to hear the news.

“Didn't I ask you to talk about your identity to Mrs. Smith months ago? I thought you already said that.”

Harvey shook his head slowly. “I didn't. That woman doesn't deserve to know.”

Harvey glanced quietly at Jordan. “She's been having an affair with another man.”

Jordan was stunned. She was speechless after hearing Harvey's words. For now, he didn't know what to do. He could only see how stern Harvey's expression was in the face of this situation.

This was quite puzzling, and it even replayed in Jordan's mind. “Why would a woman throw away a general like this? Is that woman stupid?”

The atmosphere became quiet. Jordan needed to break the silence. “General. So, are you able to return to the war?”

Harvey turned his head without replying to Jordan's question.

Jordan took a breath. “Will you be returning to your position, General?”

Jordan gave Harvey an expectant look. Hoping that Harvey would give him the answer he wanted.

Three years ago, Harvey left his post to live like a civilian. That was how William Smith found him to be a commoner.

Harvey glanced at Jordan's cat-like gaze asking for food. However, Harvey firmly refused. “No, no, no. I will remain a civilian.”

Jordan frowned. Harvey was no longer tied to Whitley and the Smith family. Why would he not want to return to his position? This was enough to make Jordan confused.

It had been a long time since Harvey had enjoyed this kind of leisure time.

Jordan carried Harvey's bag. "General, let's go to your villa."

Jordan led Harvey to his lambo car. Then he opened the door for Harvey. They both climbed in and sped off to Harvey's villa. It was a large house. It was the villa that Harvey had abandoned, but was looked after by Jordan.

They both entered the house. Harvey placed his bag on a chair. He did not sit down immediately. He turned to face Jordan.

Jordan stood tall in front of him. “What is it, General?”

Harvey looked at his subordinate very casually. “Later, someone will report me to the police. Soon, there will be police looking for me.”

Jordan immediately furrowed his brows. “Huh? Who would dare do that to a general? How rude of him! I'll teach them a lesson.”

Harvey slightly looked at the back of his right palm. There was a trace of blood there. Then he looked calmly at Jordan. “That's the work of my wife's mistress.”

Jordan narrowed his eyes. In her opinion, it was something that should not be done to someone as big as Harvey.

Harvey exhaled. “Leave it alone. I want to see what he can do. Besides, I want to take revenge at them more viciously.”

Jordan was silent for a moment. Harvey stared ahead with a very cold face. If there was a fire in front of him, it would probably freeze instantly. Jordan loved that stare, a strong stare from Harvey. During the war, Harvey had often seen his comrades and men die. He would stare coldly like this if he was going to take revenge. And when he did, the enemy would be wiped out.

Jordan swallowed. “All right, General. I will prepare everything. Anyway, do you need anything else, General?”

Harvey sat down. “I want to rest. Go on.”

Jordan nodded respectfully. Then he slowly left the place. After he closed the door, he was sure that something big was going to happen. Because he had seen Harvey getting serious about doing something.

The next day, morning came. Harvey was eating the breakfast provided by the maid at Jordan's house. It was a morning meal that was enough to energize and warm up the body. Harvey savored it slowly.

A moment later, Jordan came over with a document. “General, this is exactly as you said.”

Jordan laid out the documents for Harvey. “There really was a report about your crime. That person reported you to the police.”

Harvey wasn't very interested in the documents. “So?”

Jordan pulled back the document. He took a breath. “They took the easy way out. They have some police contacts at the central police station. By giving those cops a little money, they think they can get you arrested. They've also lined up a good prosecutor.”

Harvey nodded. “Then we'll repay their bad deeds.”

Moments later, Harvey and Jordan headed to the downtown police station. It was a large place with several buildings and a large training center. Harvey and Jordan are walking from the parking lot to the main building. Currently, they wanted to meet one of Jordan's acquaintances who was inside this office.

Just then, a white BMW suddenly stopped in front of them. Slowly, the window of the car opened. A head with sunglasses smiled dimly at Harvey. His lips were turned up one side, and this person's face was quite annoying.

The man named James raised one eyebrow. “Oh, you even came to this place yourself to turn yourself in? Look at this loser. In these shabby clothes, you want to fight Mr. Andreas Brown. You'd better bow down and break your own nose in front of Lord Andreas. Maybe he will rethink about your punishment.”

James gave a small chuckle. He deliberately teased like that to provoke Harvey. Harvey did not bother about this. “Tell your lord to bow down and lick my feet so he can be free.”

James' laughter immediately stopped. His face became grim. He angrily got out of the car and slammed the door. His breathing became heavy and short.

He glared at Harvey and pointed at his face. “This bastard... how arrogant of you to say that.”

Harvey replied with a casual look despite the man's glare. Instead, the man turned his gaze to Jordan. Unlike Harvey, Jordan's clothes looked neater as he was wearing a suit.

He pointed at Jordan. “Is it because of this man that you've become arrogant, loser? This won't change the fact, you'll still be arrested and rot in jail! Because of what? Because you're a rat in a dumpster. Haha!”

Hearing that, Jordan's blood rose. He took a step forward to hit this man. However, his steps immediately stopped when he saw Harvey raise his palms up to his face, gesturing for him to stop.

Harvey tilted his head. “So you're the one Andreas hired? You turned out to be quite problematic.”

The laughter on James' face faded. He furrowed his brow with emotion. It was infuriating to hear the word problematic come out of Harvey's mouth.

Harvey could see the change in expression. It was a sign that James was responding to his words. “You got 400,000 dollars from the Brooks family to take care of the family's drug scandal. Your career as a lawyer will be instantly ruined if that case goes public.”

James glared. The muscles in his neck popped. “Shut up!”

    Harvey's gaze darted toward his men. Not a word was spoken, but their body language was clear enough. One by one, they exchanged glances—a silent understanding was formed. These men were not only cowards, they could also be an important source of information.Rein moved first. Calmly, he touched the shoulders of Carter and Rachel, the two children among the ten who could still think clearly. They turned their heads, their eyes seeking reassurance.Rein simply raised a finger to his lips. Silence.Carter and Rachel nodded slowly, hiding their nervousness behind forced calm.Meanwhile, Harvey gave a faint smile. He slowly withdrew his dominant aura, like a lion hiding its fangs. He knew: the man in front of him needed to feel confident, so his mouth would open more easily.He crossed his arms, his eyes seeming to appraise the man from the tips of his shoes to the pores of his face.“But... to avoid any mistakes, could you explain in more detail what kind of children you’re looking for?

    A soft rumbling sound filled the room as Harvey exhaled deeply. In an instant, the atmosphere around him changed—it became heavy and oppressive. The air seemed to vibrate.From the palms of his hands, ki energy flowed rapidly, so strong that the floor beneath him creaked slightly. The walls seemed to shiver, and everyone held their breath. For a moment, the world fell silent—as if time itself bowed to that power.Jordan stepped closer, his brow furrowed.“General...” his voice was almost broken. “You deliberately released that much energy, didn't you?”Harvey only nodded slowly. With great care, he touched his palm to Rachel's forehead.The child’s body reacted immediately. Beads of sweat appeared from her pores, dampening her pale face. Her breath came in short gasps, as if trying to keep up with the flow of foreign energy entering her body.Jordan was startled. Without hesitation, he knelt beside Rachel. The tip of his finger touched the child’s forehead, channeling a thread of ki e

    The five people—including Harvey—moved quickly. They checked each of the ten unconscious children one by one. Their fingers touched their necks and wrists, feeling for pulses. Some opened their eyelids to check for pupil response. Others examined their bodies, looking for signs of injury, bruising, or hidden symptoms of illness.Allison stopped beside a young boy. He lay there breathing heavily, his left leg wrapped in stiff bandages and tied to a dull wooden splint. She peeled back the makeshift bandage and frowned.“They even torture children like this...” she whispered softly, her voice almost a growl.Slowly, Allison placed her palm on the boy’s leg. Her eyes closed briefly, and she took a deep breath. A faint glow emanated from Allison’s hand—the ki energy she was carefully channeling.She knew her abilities weren't as strong as Harvey's, but for fractures like this, she could still handle it on her own. She wasn't reckless. If the injury affected vital organs, she wouldn't take

    As soon as Anderson's scream echoed, Harvey and Jordan reacted immediately. Without hesitation, they brutally struck the necks of the children who had been surrounding them. One by one, the small bodies collapsed, lying limp on the floor, unable to see what happened next.The screams were enough to tell them what had happened. Allison had clearly made her move.After making sure all the children were unconscious, Jordan let out a heavy sigh. His eyes glanced briefly in the direction of where Allison was, then shook his head slowly.“She should have paid attention to her surroundings,” he muttered. “There are too many children here...”When Harvey and Jordan looked at Anderson, they fell silent for a moment. The man lay on the floor with his face covered in blood, his jaw shattered—the result of Allison's brutal stomp. At first glance, the attack could have taken his life. But in fact, Allison had held back. She had only crippled Anderson... temporarily.Still, the trauma left behind w

    Zack grinned widely. The combat knife in his hand was raised, pointing directly at Harvey.“You're not going anywhere,” he said, his voice deep and threatening.Harvey glanced around the room. Four adults. The rest were children. Everyone was holding weapons—broken bottles, metal pipes, and dull kitchen knives. Makeshift weapons, but enough to injure, even kill.However, Harvey showed no sign of fear. He slowly slipped both hands into his pants pockets. The movement was simple, but in a situation like this, it felt like a slap in the face to his opponents—the attitude of someone who felt no threat at all.Some of them exchanged glances. Hesitant. Confused.Then, Harvey spoke. Calmly. Coldly. With confidence.“Put down your weapons, or this will end worse than you think.”Zack and his companions burst into crude laughter. Their voices echoed in the dingy room, blending with the damp, rusty smell filling the air.“Did you hear that?” Zack turned to his followers, pointing at Harvey and
