At midnight on the same day, Steve Hart was leaning back on the sofa relaxing his body, the party had just ended and everyone had left including Agatha. Now, only Steve and a few servants were left who seemed to be busy cleaning the mansion."Mr. Steve, we have cleaned your mansion. We would like permission to take a break if you please," said one of the servants.Steve said yes, the servants had been working at the mansion for quite some time and he knew they must be tired from helping Aria set up the party as well as cleaning up afterwards.After the servants went to the rooms that were reserved for them, Steve thought about going to his room as well to get some rest. However, before he could do that, Belvoir Mansion security suddenly approached him with a worried face."What's wrong?" asked Steve Hart curiously."Sir, there are some people looking for you," said the security report.Steve Hart frowned, he didn't think he had any acquaintances who would come at midnight like now."W
After his punch knocked out one of the dozen thugs, Steve realized the remaining thugs were wary and no longer underestimated him. However, Steve didn't think too much of it because he was confident that he would still be able to win against all of them."Now, you're going to feel my fists hitting your faces!" exclaimed Steve Hart as he began to move toward some of the nearby thugs.Steve Hart swung his fists every chance he got, but his fists, which the thugs had been wary of, kept the thugs at bay.Steve Hart, who managed to swing his fists with ease and without hindrance, had now managed to knock out quite a few of the dozen thugs. This made the remaining thugs begin to retreat to think of ways to deal with Steve Hart who looked so savage in their eyes."Damn, he's good at fighting!" one of them exclaimed.The remaining thugs immediately nodded in agreement, they had all lived hard lives since childhood but this was the first time they had faced someone as tough as Steve Hart.They
In the morning, Belvoir Mansion was busy as quite a number of police officers arrived. They were led by Carver Asher, who had come after Steve had reported last night's events.Carver Asher could only shake his head slowly at the scene in front of the Belvoir Mansion gate, dozens of thugs were now being secured without daring to fight back, a similar situation had happened before so Carver was not too surprised."Mr. Steve, how come you often get involved in these dangerous situations?" asked Carver, he felt Steve was too brave to fight a dozen people alone."I don't know either, they came to me," said Steve Hart, he also felt annoyed to actually have to deal with all of them.Carver Asher once again shook his head, he really admired martial arts experts like Steve Hart who seemed impossible to lose."I understand this is not your fault, but do you know where these thugs came from?" asked Carver Asher, he realized there was no way a dozen thugs would come looking for trouble with Stev
Steve Hart tried to act casual when Eric was surprised to see him, he tried to hide his satisfaction at having managed to surprise Eric Daran in this way.Steve Hart was sure that Eric must have been very confident that he had managed to send himself to the hospital, how could he not when the dozen thugs that Eric had ordered should have been more than enough to succeed in doing so.Unfortunately, that was not the case for Steve Hart. This, made Eric Daran's surprise very normal to see Steve suddenly there without any injuries."There's a guest coming but why didn't you let me in? Aren't you curious about the dozen thugs you sent out last night?" asked Steve Hart.Eric Daran tried to cover up his panic, he eventually let Steve enter the house out of curiosity.Steve was invited by Eric to the living room of the house, there was already a middle-aged man whom Steve recognized as the head of the Daran family as well as Eric's father named Jonathan.Jonathan Daran raised his eyebrows see
Eric Daran saw his father suddenly silent after receiving a call, instantly curious, "Dad, what's wrong?"Jonathan ignored his son's question, his mind now completely muddled by what was happening to his family."Dad, who was that call from? What did you guys talk about that you look so bad like now?" Eric Daran asked worriedly, he was sure something was wrong after seeing his father's reaction.Jonathan Daran looked deeply at his son, he finally said in a weak voice, "Eric, we are destroyed."Eric Daran frowned, "Destroyed? What do you mean, Dad?""We're ruined ...."Eric Daran immediately felt unacceptable, he blamed Steve for what had now happened to his father.Eric Daran felt Steve was responsible for all of this, because it all started after Steve came to his house."You, damn it, what have you done?" Eric Daran gripped Steve's shirt collar firmly, he wanted Steve to give an explanation that his father could not.Steve Hart raised his eyebrows, "Why do you ask me? Ask your fathe
In the midst of Jonathan and Eric Daran's regrets, misfortune seemed to refuse to leave them. The Darans' home, which had seemed peaceful at the time, was suddenly thrown into chaos after a horde of police led by Carver Asher barged in."Mr. Steve... are you here too?" Carver Asher was quite surprised to find Steve Hart in the house.Steve Hart smiled, "Don't mind me, just do your job."Carver Asher nodded, he finally ordered his members to arrest Jonathan as well as Eric Daran.Neither Jonathan nor Eric Daran resisted when arrested, both of them could only regret their stupidity for having dared to offend Steve Hart.Jonathan Daran now even understood how influential Steve Hart really was, judging by how the police chief seemed so respectful of him."Damn it, this is the end," Jonathan Daran muttered.Carver Asher approached Jonathan, wanting to hear directly from Jonathan's mouth about why he had the audacity to mess with his city."Jonathan, do you underestimate me to commit all th
A few days had passed and the day of the auction finally arrived, Steve Hart, who had promised Carver he would be there, finally headed to the auction venue with his Bugatti Chiron.Ashford Hall, a building used for big events, was the venue. Steve Hart got there on time, as many people were also arriving in their luxury vehicles.Steve Hart's presence at Ashford Hall was quite interesting, not only because Steve Hart seemed unfamiliar to so many people, but also because Steve Hart came in a Bugatti Chiron and was greeted directly by Carver Asher, the person they knew as the VIP guest of the auction.Carver Asher himself approached Steve Hart along with a man about Steve Hart's age beside him, the man looked quite striking with the branded clothes he was wearing.Steve Hart saw the man beside Carver with a glance, he could immediately guess that it seemed that the man was a young generation of wealthy families."Mr. Steve, you've really come," Carver Asher said, welcoming Steve with a
Steve Hart's bid for a diamond ring that was being auctioned off, managed to surprise everyone there and Brandon Lee was no exception.Steve Hart bid twice as much as the starting price, making everyone there start to pay more attention to Steve Hart after all this time Brandon was the center of all their attention."Damn, which young master from a rich family is it again this time?""We're finished, we won't get anything from this auction if our rivals are monsters like Brandon.""Shut up you guys, isn't this going to be fun since Brandon finally has a rival?"Discussion ensued among those attending the auction, as they began to wonder which of the two was richer, Brandon or Steve Hart.Brandon, who overheard the conversation, immediately decided to bid again because he didn't want to lose face."21 million dollars," Brandon said, trying to stay ahead of Steve Hart."Okay, 21 million dollars. Are there any other bids?" the host asked the crowd.Brandon Lee smiled broadly as silence f
The Cattegirn family, who had lost their weapon to fight against Steve Hart, ultimately had to surrender. They tried to figure out ways to calm Steve Hart's anger, which was now glaring at them so sharply."Darn it, what's happening? Are we going to lose all our assets?""What are you talking about? We wouldn't lose everything if we had just accepted Steve Hart's offer from the beginning. If we did, at least Steve Hart would have kindly let us continue enjoying all those assets.""You're right, we messed up."Almost the entire Cattegirn family agreed that their stubbornness had indeed led to losses. Their refusal to submit to Steve Hart now was leading them to ruin."Uncle Jason, please do something.""That's right, Brother Jason. If necessary, tell Steve Hart that we accept his offer.""I agree, at least that's the only way for us not to end up living as beggars after daring to offend him."All the other members of Cattegirn family began pleading with Jason and Olivia to resolve the
"Am I late?"A beautiful girl entered as if nothing had happened, casually approaching Steve to join Brandon in standing by Steve Hart's side."I, Helena Halbert, will represent the Halbert family in expressing support for Steve Hart. Whatever happens here, even if it means offending the Bridge family, the Halbert family will do its best to prove its seriousness in support," Helena said loudly so that everyone there could hear her."Helena, what do you mean? Why is the Halbert family doing this? Does that scumbag deserve your support like this?" Mark Bridge asked, not expecting Brandon alone to support Steve Hart, let alone Helena.Mark, who initially believed he could stubbornly make Agatha his fiancée, suddenly doubted whether this was worth it or not.Mark might still have confidence in handling the Lee family easily, but if the Halbert family also intervened, then this was a different story.The Bridge family might be strong and surpass the other two influential families in Avebur
BAM!Steve Hart's punch landed squarely on Mark's chin, causing Mark to stagger before falling because he wasn't prepared for it."Damn it! How dare you!""Everyone, move to protect Mr. Mark right now!""Stay away from Mr. Mark, hit him if necessary if he keeps trying to resist!"Quite a few people in the living room reacted strongly to Steve Hart's punch. Steve Hart didn't recognize who they were, but he could guess that they had come with Mark."Darn, for someone who dares to try to put your hands on my wife, you're quite the coward," Steve Hart said to Mark.Mark Bridge heard this and immediately ordered them to stop. Mark didn't want them to get involved because it would hurt his pride."Haha, you can go," Mark said, rising from his fall."Mr. Mark, are you okay?""Mr. Mark, why are you stopping us from teaching him a lesson?""Mr. Mark, that scumbag has gone too far, he should at least feel a few broken bones as punishment."The people stopped by Mark seemed dissatisfied; they qu
Steve Hart returned to the living room with confidence, the presence of Mark Bridge not bothering him in the slightest, let alone making him fearful.Simultaneously with Steve Hart's appearance, Agatha followed closely behind him. Agatha seemed to be hiding behind Steve Hart, afraid of every person in the living room, not wanting to feel the hateful gazes from them due to her sudden change of decision.Initially, Agatha had agreed to her engagement, pressured by her family to make that decision. Seeing her suddenly change her mind naturally angered every Cattegirn family member present.The Cattegirn family felt betrayed by Agatha, their sole rescuer, if only Agatha hadn't suddenly turned to side with Steve Hart like she was doing now."Agatha, what is the meaning of all this?!""Agatha, didn't you already agree to this engagement?!""Agatha, are you insane to decide to side with him and plan to disrupt your engagement with Mark?!"Each member of the Cattegirn family present asked ang
Steve's sudden entrance truly succeeded in catching the entire household off guard. The living room was indeed bustling with activity, mostly from the Cattegirn family, but there were also quite a few unfamiliar faces that Steve didn't know."Am I interrupting your event?" Steve Hart asked, his tone piercingly cold to those who heard it.Steve's question was not well-received by most people there; one of them even approached Steve with an angry expression.Olivia Cattegirn, Steve's mother-in-law, approached him and promptly pulled him away from the living room."What wicked plans do you have by coming here?!" Olivia exclaimed loudly, simultaneously slapping Steve's hand.Steve raised his eyebrows; he remembered vividly how just a few days ago, his mother-in-law seemed so hesitant and even afraid of him. Now, that fear seemed to have vanished, and Olivia appeared to be back to treating Steve as she pleased.Steve didn't dwell on Olivia's change in attitude. However, he already knew the
In the luxurious courtyard of the Cattegirn family mansion, Steve could see it bustling with invited guests, all of whom seemed surprised by his presence, as if his arrival was the last thing they expected."What's he doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be kicked out?""Maybe he's here to deal with his divorce from Agatha. Just let it be, there's no need to pay him any mind."Steve overheard the nearby conversations clearly, which only fueled his anger.Steve knew exactly why they were all gathered at his wife's family home. He had heard it from Brandon that the Cattegirn family was secretly attempting to arrange a marriage for Agatha behind his back."Agatha hasn't even divorced me yet, and you're all rushing to make decisions," Steve Hart muttered.Steve questioned what the Cattegirn family truly thought of him, realizing how much they were belittling him and disregarding his existence.Steve could entertain such thoughts because the marriage arrangement the Cattegirns were attempting
Having to endure the barrage of punches from Steve Hart, Howard, accustomed to instilling fear and commanding respect from others, suddenly found himself questioning his own abilities.This dealt a severe blow to Howard's pride. His confidence waned, along with his courage. Confronting Steve Hart, who stood before him, Howard realized the extent of his terror, rendering him powerless against Steve's onslaught."W-Wait, please cease hitting me," Howard pleaded softly, gazing at Steve Hart, yet Steve appeared disinclined to comply."Why should I acquiesce to your request?" Steve countered.Howard clenched his teeth, feeling overwhelmed by it all, then erupted vehemently, "Enough, you lunatic!"Howard's shout managed to stun Steve Hart for a moment. Seeing an opportunity, Howard immediately tried to break free from Steve Hart before running as fast as he could to escape from there.Steve just watched Howard running away from him, he had no desire to chase him, thinking it would just be a
After hearing the disrespectful words spewing from Steve Hart's mouth, Howard Harris immediately took steps to attack Steve Hart.Howard attempted to strike Steve Hart with all his might, intending to make Steve Hart fall with a single blow."Damn, do you even know who I am?" Howard asked as he swung his fist.Howard's punch was easily handled by Steve Hart, who dodged it effortlessly, almost as if he had done it without even trying.Howard Harris didn't give up after Steve Hart successfully avoided his first punch. He immediately tried to swing another punch, this time aiming for Steve Hart's abdomen.Steve quickly leaped backward before the punch could land on his abdomen, once again successfully evading Howard's attempted punch."You're quite impressive," Howard Harris said.Steve Hart smirked, "I could do it because your punch was too weak, there's nothing to boast about in that."Howard Harris glared at Steve Hart sharply, suspecting that Steve didn't know who he was to dare say
Steve Hart left the hospital with a wide smile on his face, not expecting his plan to instill a sense of remorse in Daniel to go so smoothly, but everything went according to his expectations.The $10 billion now in his pocket was evidence of his success, making Steve even more excited to step into a brighter future.The success of making Daniel realize his mistake didn't satisfy Steve. He felt there was one more thing he needed to do, which was to get an answer from the Cattegirn family regarding his offer.After a few days had passed, Steve felt it was enough time for his in-laws to decide on his offer. This prompted him to drive his car to the main house of the Cattegirn family to get the awaited answer.Steve arrived there with high hopes that his in-laws would accept his offer, especially since he made the offer solely for the happiness of Agatha, his wife.On his way to his wife's family house, Steve saw a girl who seemed quite familiar to him.The location where Steve saw the g
