Harvey touched the piano with his hands. He opened the lid of the piano with a soft bang. After that, he stretched his hands out to press on the keys softly.He was only standing there casually, playing the piano with one hand, but the graceful melody started to echo around the large hall. With every movement of his fingers, the melody fluctuated between tones of excitement, melancholy, and deep sounds...The smooth music was coupled with a perfect rhythm and the casual way it was played. While many of the people present knew little about music, they could faintly sense the way Harvey played the piano was so much better than Jamie’s. Nia’s facial expression grew incredibly hideous. She felt like she was deeply humiliated. At first, she wanted to make use of her plot to show off how exceptional Jamie was. It never occurred to her that Mandy’s live-in husband knew how to play the piano too. He even exposed Jamie’s fake act of playing the piano just now. Suddenly, shame and embarrass
Jamie smiled and left the hall. Soon, he reached Kane’s office. Kane was the heir of the Brookes in Niumhi, and he was also the biological son of the master of the Brookes. He was a young man in his thirties. He was rather handsome, but he looked slightly pale and sickly. The Brookes had influence in both evil and righteous sides. Although they didn’t have much influence among the gangsters, nobody dared to offend them because of Liam. However, they were not very well informed. During the past few days, Liam had become Tyson’s subordinate. The Brookes knew nothing of that. “Uncle.” Jamie entered the office and said respectfully. “Here you are.” Kane was playing with his female secretary's exquisite face at that moment. He smiled. He treated his nephew rather kindly. It was because his nephew knew how to please him. Kane valued a person like Jamie highly, since Jamie could even be quite cruel toward his own people. At that moment, he gestured to his female secretary, ask
During the meal, Harvey gave an excuse that he wanted to go to the washroom. He then went to make a call outside. He knew a person like Nia well. She would never endure that kind of humiliation quietly. She even went to them deliberately and threatened them. Later, something might happen. Harvey was not afraid of anything. But this was not his territory. If anything happened to Mandy, he would be filled with regret. He was not familiar with the people from the Brookes, but there was someone who could suppress the Brookes well, and that was Liam. Liam was now Tyson’s subordinate. If he let Liam tackle that issue, it could be considered as a chance for him to compensate for the mistakes he had made. It was quite the coincidence. Just when Harvey left the hall to make a call, a few gangsters entered the hall, cigarettes dangling at their lips. Seeing them, Nia looked rather wicked and vicious. She said coldly to Jamie, “Although Mandy is married, that worthless piece of tra
“Wow! Your skin is so fair. Let me touch it and see how smooth it is!” “Your little face is so pretty. I’d like to kiss it so d*mn much!” “A beauty like you has no man by your side, what a great waste!” The gangsters approached Mandy, Angel and Cecilia. They started to act imprudently, and they even drove the others out. A lot of the people present were Mandy’s admirers. Seeing this, they became quite enraged. “Who are you? Why can you come into this place? Don’t you know that we’ve reserved this entire place?” “How could you harass our classmates imprudently! Do you want us to call the police?” “That’s right. Get out of her immediately! We don’t welcome you here!” ...A few male classmates said righteously. It was a chance for them to act like heroes and save their beauty. How could they miss it? Bang!The leader from among that group of gangsters stepped forward and slapped the male classmate who had just spoken. He then said coldly, “Who the hell are you? How bo
The body of the male classmate who had just been kicked couldn’t stop twitching. He clutched his stomach, unable to stand up. The other gangsters stepped forward and each gave him a kick, until he grew weak and feeble. The sight filled everyone with deep shock and fear. They glanced at Jamie and Nia, who appeared condescending, as if what had happened had nothing to do with them. The others could not help but frown. Logically, both Jamie and Nia cared much about their pride and dignity. How could they allow others to ruin their occasion? Could it be that those gangsters were deliberately arranged by Nia and her husband? “Nia, we’re classmates. You don’t have to be so cruel, don’t you?” One of Mandy’s admirers said angrily. “Son of a b*tch! What do you mean? How is it related to me? Those b*tches attract all kinds of lascivious men. How does it concern me? Are you insane?” Nia stood up and shouted.The problem was that the Hot Spring Villa belonged to the Brookes. Besides, Ja
“Oh? Are you beautiful ladies gossiping? Are you talking about who’ll be first? Rest assured, there will be no favouritism between you ladies…”A thug rested his hand on the shoulder of Cecilia Zachary’s sensual body, his face wretched and lustful.Cecilia panicked, and screamed angrily at him.“Don’t touch me with your filthy hands!”“Heh, you think I’m filthy? Don’t worry, you’ll be more filthy than me in a moment. But I’ll never give you the cold shoulder!”The thug touched his jaw, saliva nearly gushing out of his dirty mouth.Angel Quinn’s face turned white. She hid behind Mandy Zimmer, on the verge of tears.Mandy sheltered Angel in her arms while standing up. She knew that the culprit of this mess had to be none other than Nia Howell.“Nia, I know we had a lot of conflicts in the past. I’ll apologize. Is there even a reason for you to do this?” Mandy said, furrowing her brows.“Mandy, do you think that I care about the amount of men that you have out there? How should I
Mandy Zimmer and the others were scared stiff. They knew of the consequences if they mess with these thugs, even if they were rich.“Alright ladies, stop struggling. What’s that quote of something about enjoying things?” The thug in front had sparked his inquisitiveness.“If you can’t reject it, learn to enjoy it.” Another thug replied.“Right right right, that’s the one…”The thug in front bellowed with laughter.“Alright ladies, let’s get started, shall we?”The thug had already reached for Mandy’s face as soon as he was done talking.Slap!Mandy, seething with anger, automatically slapped the thug’s face with a swing of her palm.The thug froze. They were evidently surprised that this lady who looked as harmless as sheep would even have the audacity to hit them.“How dare you hit me?! You bastard! Have you no sense of shame? You think you’re a bunch of hotshots when we don’t treat you roughly? Screw you!” The slapped thug was furious. He was ashamed; they all had lived
At the side hall of Hot Spring Villa.Harvey York sat casually on a couch while Liam Stone trembled in front of him.After being lectured by Tyson Woods for the past few days, Liam knew about the true identity of Harvey York. When he faced Harvey, he could only obey. Not even a hint of resistance was to be found in him.Liam knew if Harvey even showed a hint of what he’s capable of doing, getting Liam killed is but a trivial task.Tyson showing mercy was apparently also Harvey York’s doing. If not, Liam would’ve been sleeping with the fishes.“I heard that you’re still covering for the Brooke family. Looks like you’re doing well for yourself on Niumhi.”Harvey did not even glance at Liam, instead he kept playing with his old phone in his hand.After hearing this, Liam started to tremble anxiously.“Sir York, these are just past relationships. If Sir York deemed that the Brooke family is unworthy, my men will cut ties with them from today onward!”“Your men?”Harvey looked up,
