Sarah opened the door. “Please come in, Mr. Harvey.”

After Harvey entered, Sarah immediately closed the door. In front of her was a man who had been looking down. He was the person in charge of accompanying the VIP.

Harvey took out his card and used it on a machine beside the steel door. Realizing that Harvey had opened the door, the man hurriedly approached him. Then after seeing the card Harvey was holding, he realized that Harvey was someone he should respect more. He would instantly lose his job if he ignored him even a little.

The man gulped. “My apologies, sir. I'm late to welcome you.”

Harvey looked at him casually. He didn't really mind that much. The man then opened the steel door. “Please follow me, sir.”

The man walked ahead of Harvey into the room. It turned out that the room had an elevator that led to an underground room. The man pointed to the elevator to let Harvey in. The elevator took them to a secret vault that only this elite jewelry store had.

Harvey walked behind the man through the steel doors beside the corridor. Those doors were the rooms where ordinary VIP customers were kept. And among all the doors, there was a large black door, looking the strongest among the other storage doors.

The man stopped in front of the door. Then he stood beside it while facing Harvey. “Please, sir. Until now, no one has touched your safe.”

Harvey took a step forward while looking at the top of the large door. He smiled a little. “If anyone can touch it, then the security here is pretty lousy.”

Sweat began to break out on the guard's temples. He quickly lowered his gaze. What Harvey said seemed like something frightening to him.

Harvey pressed his palm against the scan screen in front of the door. A lock sounded open from inside the door. Then Harvey also entered a numeric password. From the center of the door, a silver circle appeared. Harvey then pressed his palm against the circle and closed his eyes.

The guard took a few steps back. His heart was racing. In his mind, he was seriously watching what Harvey was doing without blinking. “What a great pressure.”

Harvey's mouth whispered a few words. One thing that Harvey had not shown to others while he was Whitley's husband was that Harvey possessed an unusual martial arts technique. He could use the inner power of his body. By attaching his hand to the silver circle. With such an intricate mechanism, this safe was indeed tailor-made for Harvey alone.

The sound of gears could be heard clearly as the large door slid open. Harvey then entered. Inside was a large room that felt empty. The entire room was white, with only a table in the center of the room. On top of the table, there was a glowing black box.

Harvey walked over and opened the box. Inside, there was a necklace in the shape of a phoenix. Harvey touched and stroked the object several times. “It's been so long...”

Harvey took the object and put it on. He closed his eyes, then as he looked up he took a deep breath, then let it out. He felt something new.

Harvey turned around and walked out of the room. Automatically, the door of the safe closed again.

The man from before came up to Harvey. “Have you taken what you need, sir.”

Harvey showed the necklace he was wearing. “Don't let anyone enter this safe!”

The man nodded. Somehow the atmosphere became more tense. The man had to swallow his saliva. In his mind, he wondered about all this. “Who is this person? I'm meeting him for the first time, but his aura is so strong. He's definitely not an ordinary person.”

There were only a few who had VIP storage access, but this was the first time he had seen one locked in such a way. He was sure that this guest must be more than he imagined. He even subconsciously broke out in a cold sweat and got goosebumps.

The two of them then walked out of the storage area. Harvey stepped slightly ahead of the man. After they arrived at the previous place, it turned out that Whitley was still there. He proudly stood at a slight angle and also folded his arms in front of his chest.

“Oh, did you finally get kicked out of this place, Harvey?” Whitley said in a very annoying tone. “I already knew that someone like you would want to commit a crime. You were caught trying to steal, weren't you?”

Harvey didn't pay much attention to her. He was too lazy to bother with a big mouth like this woman. However, just as Harvey was about to leave, Whitley and Valencia got in front of him.

Whitley snorted dismissively. “I think you need to be searched before you leave this place.”

Whitley glanced at the name tag of the man behind Harvey. “Jason, check Harvey's entire body.”

Harvey paused to exhale. “You don't know about me.”

Whitley chuckled. “I know very well who you are. You're a poor, lowly man. One who would commit a crime given the chance. If you've come here, I'm sure that there must be something in your pockets. You need to be searched and reported to the police!”

Jason opened his eyes wide. Harvey was a top VIP owner, of course Jason did not allow this ambience become worse. “Be careful what you say, Miss. Mr. Harvey did not do what you are accusing him of. Whoever you are, you are out of line!”

Jason furrowed his brows. His heart was racing. He must not make Harvey feel offended by this woman.

Hearing that, Whitley was shocked. She immediately pointed at Harvey's face. “I know this person very well. He is the one who will harm you.”

Jason shook his head while glaring. “Stop it, Miss. You're so annoying!”

Whitley frowned. She wondered why this waitress seemed to be desperately defending Harvey?

Harvey grabbed Jason's shoulders. “Oh yes, I have a request. Don't let these two women to stay in here.”

Harvey's eyes fell on Whitley. Whitley suddenly opened her eyes wide. Especially when she saw Jason respond to Harvey with a nod. “Alright. Security, evict them!”

This elite jewelry store was a very prestigious store in the city. People who wore jewelry from this store would be the talk of their social groups. If Whitley lost access to come here, then she would also lose her social status in the eyes of her friends.

Whitley with a flushed face pointed back at Harvey. “Why are you even following his orders? Did he buy anything here?”

Jason firmly replied, “Mr. Harvey didn't buy. He just picked something up.”

Whitley chuckled. “He didn't buy anything? How can you obey someone like this? Look, I buy a lot of stuff here. You can't kick me out, Harvey should be the one you kick out!”

Jason shook his head. “What Mr. Harvey did is worth more than the things you bought. Hand back the things you brought and get out of here!”

Whitley was stunned. She couldn't believe that Jason would say that so bluntly. A moment later, two security guards arrived and held Whitley and Valencia's hands. Jason took back the toot bag of jewelry Whitley had just bought.

Both of them were forcibly dragged by the security and released when they were outside the store. Both of their faces became very red, especially since there were many people watching.

Whitley clenched her fists. “You bastard! Why did he kick me out like this?”

Valencia wrinkled her forehead as she looked inside the shop. Her heart was racing after that incident. “Whitley, isn't your ex-husband a rich man? He can order the people in this shop around at will.”

Whitley clucked her mouth. “Harvey? Rich? You are kidding! He's just a loser.”

    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
