“Okay, I got it.”He ended the call.Harvey went to his office at Sky Corporation the first thing after that, and asked Yvonne Xavier to investigate the matter.Yvonne knew William Bell as well, so she was very taken when she heard that he died. She proceeded to make the arrangements instantly.After approximately half an hour, she re-entered Harvey’s office, looking pale.“Have you checked it?” Harvey asked her in a low voice.“Yes, I did.” Yvonne replied softly. “Three years ago, three days after you were forced to leave Buckwood, William was thrown into Pearl River.”“Was it Quinton York?” Harvey asked coldly.“It wasn’t Quinton.” Yvonne answered. “It was the Silvas.” “To show their stand, the Silvas voluntarily made a move against William.”“The Silvas.” Harvey crushed the cup in his hands.“Sir, please don’t act too rashly. The Silvas aren’t like before, especially Leon Silva.”“The Silvas today are one of the top families in South Light. Going against them won’t be e
Harvey York furrowed his eyebrows. “That’s not right. I remember that William’s parents worked under an international corporation and lived in a welfare housing unit. How could they be living in a village, or all places?”Yvonne Xavier hesitated to speak. “It’s probably the Silvas’ doing. The corporation didn’t dare to go against them, so they took the house back. I heard that his parents’ pension even got terminated!”“The two elders had no choice but to move to a village. It’s rumoured that they’ve been picking up trash for a living.”Harvey’s face grew even darker.The Silvas were too much!If it wasn’t for the fact that the two elders wouldn’t have any strength for revenge, the Silvas would’ve had them killed as well.In this regard, the Silvas were far more abhorrent than Quinton!The Silvas must die!“Let’s go and see how they’re doing. William’s parents are my parents too. We’ll see who else dared to touch them.”Harvey spoke slowly, but his tone was downright intimidat
The leader instantly turned around, only to meet Harvey York’s ice-cold expression.“Who the f*ck are you?” He roared. “You dared to stop me? Do you want to die?” Crack!Harvey effortlessly exerted some pressure in his grip, and the gangster’s arm was broken immediately.He followed through with a hard kick that sent the gangster flying a few yards away. The gangster collapsed to the ground. He struggled to get up, but to no avail. He could only yell out in pain.The other gangsters rushed furiously toward Harvey, but he kicked them all away almost instantly.They all scurried away, yelping in pain. The leader bellowed at Shawn, “Old man! You actually called someone up? You just wait! You’ll be dead today!”“Brother Leroy will be here later! Wait till you get buried with that shitty son of yours!”They left soon after. The old couple closed their eyes in exasperation, looking hopeless.In these three years, they lived their worst life and had suffered terribly. One could
“It’s okay. At most, we’ll just get beaten up a little.”“Plus, we’re already old and frail. Our lives don’t have as much worth as yours!”“It’s alright even if we die!”“You have to stay alive and well, so that you can avenge our dear William!”“He was murdered by someone for sure!”Shawn Bell exclaimed, tear-stricken.William Bell’s unjustified death was obviously the old couple’s hardest pain.Harvey sighed and reassured them, “Uncle, Auntie, don’t worry. No one can hurt you if I’m here.”“I’ll settle William’s matter as well. You’ll definitely get an explanation over what happened to him.”“No! You don’t know how scary Brother Leroy is. He can kill someone!”It was evident that this so-called Brother Leroy had succeeded in implanting great fear in everyone’s heart.When Shawn brought up his name, he couldn’t help but tremble slightly.His fear had already become a biological reaction.It only showed how powerful Leroy was, and how much he had terrorized the old couple
“You puny ant! That’s pretty brave of you!”Leroy sized Harvey York up. “Looks like you’re old Shawn’s family, huh?”“Shawn Bell, to think you have the guts to call someone over to hit one of my brothers!”“I can make you regret being born anytime I like!”“Let’s see how I’ll torture you two old hags!”Leroy threatened the old couple right in front of Harvey.He gave off such an intimidating air that Shawn and his wife were horrified to death. They begged immediately, “Brother Leroy! My nephew didn’t understand the rules of this place!”“Didn’t you want money? I still have some wood from the coffin. I’ll give you all of them, so please forgive him!”“I’ll eat leaves every day from now on to save up money for you!”“Forgive him?” Leroy sneered. “I can do that.”“In exchange, I want this girl to play with me for a while. Then you have to pay us a hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the medical expenses. Lastly, I want his arm broken. Only then I’ll forget about everything!”
The crowd of powerful men parted to open a path for two people to pass through.Tyson Woods walked at the front, with Old Niner following behind.“That’s the new rising gangster, Brother Tyson! And isn’t that Old Niner? Master Niner?”Leroy was part of the street gangs. Although he could not be considered as an influential figure, he was vigilant and was very clear about the situation on the streets.Therefore, he knew most of the big shots that ruled the streets.From Tyson and Old Niner’s point of view, a small fry like Leroy was at best a little brother. No, they might not even acknowledge him as one.“Brother Tyson, Master Niner! What brings you here?!”“It’s such an honor!”Leroy quickly said, bending over to show respect.However, neither Tyson nor Old Niner cared about him.They walked into the small courtyard and then bowed in Harvey’s direction. “Master York, what can I do for you?”“What… what…”Leroy and his followers became dumbfounded. The scene before them was
“Is it true?” Shawn Bell and his wife were both emotional. “You found out who killed our William?” They were able to endure a hard time these past three years in hopes that they could one day avenge their late son.Now that their suffering was over, there was hope for revenge.If Harvey said this before, they might not have believed him.However, the scene just now instilled in them a newfound confidence in Harvey.“Uncle, Auntie, please stand up. From now on, I’ll treat you as my own parents.”“Let’s go. We’ll move out tonight and live in another place.”Soon after, Harvey left the slum with Shawn and his wife.When they exited the hut, the laneway was extremely clean. There were no traces of any scuffle whatsoever.Tyson and the rest had disappeared, as if they were never around in the first place.When Harvey and the elderly couple reached the middle of the lane, a wooden door to another house opened. A scantily clad woman with thick makeup came out. She kneeled in front
