Harvey lifted the perfume bottle, pressing the spray once. The subtle masculine scent spreads through the air, blending in with the silence of the room. The white suit he wore looked perfect on him, contrasting with the black shirt hidden underneath. A black-and-white striped tie hung neatly around his neck, a symbol of his belief-justice always has a firm boundary, like black and white that never mix.

He smoothed his sleeves, his fingers gliding slowly along the fabric. His calm movements showed the habits of someone who was always prepared for the unexpected.

Suddenly, the sound of the door opening broke the silence. Jordan stepped in, his shoulders squared as always. His gaze immediately fell on Harvey. "Mr. Harvey," he said briefly, but meaningfully.

Harvey turned his head, his eyes meeting Jordan's who now stood tall in the doorway. The dark suit wrapped around his assistant's body looked neat, with almost no creases. In Jordan's grasp, a car key glints under the room lights. He

    Stepping into the hall, Harvey raised one eyebrow. "What a party," he muttered softly.The high ceiling was decorated with crystal chandeliers that emitted golden light, making soft shadows dance along the walls. In the corners of the room, foot stands stood in a row, displaying sumptuous dishes with tantalizing aromas. In the center of the hall, a champagne fountain shimmered under the spotlight, golden bubbles rising to the surface before spilling in a graceful stream into sparkling crystal glasses.Classical music flowed softly, permeating the air like a whisper that enveloped the guests' conversations. They stood in small groups, laughing in low tones, raising their glasses in conversations only those familiar with this world could understand.Harvey swept his gaze around, his lips slightly bent to one side. This party was no mere celebration-it was an arena for those accustomed to playing in the shadows of power.A crowd of lavishly dressed guests filled the hall, but Harvey's ke

    Stan was silent for a moment. His eyes widened slightly before he quickly regained control of his expression. For a moment, the room was silent for both of them, but within seconds, a mocking smile returned to Stan's face. A small chuckle escaped his lips, light but full of condescension-the signature laugh of someone used to being at the social top. "That's impossible," he said with absolute conviction. He shook his head slowly, as if he was facing something ridiculous. His eyes glanced down, his lips slightly raised, as if he was holding back a laugh. "Really, I don't get it," she continues, before finally looking at Harvey again, this time with a sharper smile. "You have nothing to be ashamed of," he said, his voice sounding like a teacher counseling a lost student. "What you're saying is so far-fetched. There is no way such a thing could be real." His hands dropped from his chest, and with a casual gesture, he slipped one hand into his pants pocket. His frivolous smile beca

    Hillary froze. Her breath catches in her throat as her eyes fixate on something on Harvey's chest. It was a brooch.It was no ordinary brooch-it had wings that opened proudly, and at its center was perched a gleaming black stone. Its smooth surface caught the light, reflecting it in an intense, almost mystical glow.Hillary swallowed. Her hands trembled slightly as she lifted it forward, as if to confirm that what she was seeing was not just an illusion."That's..." she whispered, her voice so low it was almost drowned out by the party music. "Dragon Tears? No way... How can this guy have them?"The sparkling black stone in the brooch seemed to swallow up the light, creating an intense, almost mystical reflection. Dragon Tears-the rarest stone in the world, something that should only be owned by a handful of people with absolute power.But now, it was perched on the chest of a man who they had earlier despised as a beggar.Hillary felt doubt nagging at her mind. Her hands clenched int

    Erik stood at Julius Claymore's side, his eyes fixed on Harvey's figure. Unlike his two colleagues, Julius' expression was serious. A fine frown appeared on his forehead, indicating displeasure or perhaps surprise at this unexpected situation. Across from them, Harvey looked at Erik with an equally calm gaze. No tension could be seen from him, as if Erik's presence was just a meaningless coincidence. However, in his heart, Erik felt something else. He knew this man. Not as a beggar or an ordinary veteran, but as someone who had led a war. Erik gulped, he thought to himself, "Mr. Harvey?" Erik's mind was spinning fast. "Why is he in Duskvale? Why is he attending this party?" Harvey raised one finger in front of his lips, a subtle gesture that only Erik could catch. A wordless warning. Erik stiffened for a moment, his eyes still locked on Harvey. There was no mistaking it-he recognized the man. Although not part of the military directly, Erik Reinhart had made great contributions

    It was as if fine needles were piercing Stan's head. Harvey's words were like thorns creeping into his head, igniting embers that instantly burned his emotions.His blood rushed up, warming his face to a boiling point. His jaw clenched tightly, while his eyes widened, full of disbelief mixed with anger. His brows were furrowed sharply, forming lines of tension on his forehead.With a rough movement, she turned her body to face Harvey. Chest rising and falling, his breathing sounded heavier. Stan's head snapped up, his gaze pressing, as if he was about to crush his interlocutor with just a glance. "Oh, your mouth really has no manners, huh." His voice was low, almost trembling, yet full of veiled threats.Hillary and Gwen simultaneously turned to face Harvey. Both of their hands were folded in front of their chests, fingers hardened against their arms, as if they were holding back an explosion of anger that was ready to burst out at any moment. Their faces were flushed, not from embarr

    Stan smirked, his lips pulled to the side in an obvious look of disdain. His eyes narrowed, as if he was assessing Harvey like a poor man who had just dug his own grave."Mr. veteran," his voice was low, but full of piercing sarcasm. "Do you realize what you just did?"He raised his hand, his index finger hovering in the air before pointing at the crowd of guests who were still staring at them with various expressions-some dumbfounded, some stifling laughter, and some whispering softly, talking about Harvey like it was a joke too daring to believe."Look at them." Stan waved his arms in a theatrical gesture. "All eyes are on you now. You're deliberately embarrassing yourself just to get attention."Small chuckles could be heard from several corners of the room, although some of the guests were still too shocked to really react. Amidst it all, Harvey remained silent. His gaze was unmoving, cold as the surface of water untouched by the wind.Stan didn't stop there. He rested one hand on

    The three froze in place, glancing at each other with expressions that were difficult to translate. Hillary bit her lip, as if to argue, but the words stuck in her throat. Stan growled softly, his chin raised a little higher, as if refusing to be humiliated. While Gwen, who was usually calmer, finally clicked her tongue.She let out a long breath, then crossed her arms in front of her chest. Her eyes flashed sarcastically as she looked at Erik. “We simply can't donate as much as 200 million dollars,” she said, her voice laden with skepticism. “But does Mr. Erik really believe that this veteran can keep his promise?”Erik responded calmly. He gave Harvey a quick glance, then flashed a faint smile-not a mocking smile, but the expression of someone who knew more than others.He knew Harvey. Not just as a soldier, but as someone who held a high position on the battlefield. However, even with all his knowledge, Erik still did not realize that the man before him was a God of War.More than

    Stan, Hillary and Gwen were frozen in place. Their minds were spinning, trying to make sense of the reality that had just hit them mercilessly. Harvey. The man they'd been insulting and belittling. Not a beggar, not a loser, but someone who was able to donate 200 million dollars with a single touch on his phone screen.Gwen bit her lip, as if hoping this was all a misunderstanding. Hillary swallowed, her throat suddenly dry. Meanwhile, Stan, who was usually full of confidence, could only grin stiffly. Their foreheads furrowed, looking for a way out of this situation.Finally, Stan laughed softly-a forced laugh, more like a face-saving attempt. He glanced at Erik with hopeful eyes. “Forgive us, Mr. Erik,” he said, his voice softer than before. “We didn't really mean those things.”Hillary tried to smile, but her facial muscles tightened, making her expression look more like a stiff grin than a genuine smile. Her eyes glanced at Erik carefully, gauging his reaction. “Really, Mr. Erik Re

    The city sky of Duskvale glowed in the dim light, leaving only the silhouettes of buildings looming in the distance. From the window, Harvey stood still, his hands clasped together, his eyes gazing far into the horizon. His breathing is quiet, almost inaudible.When the door to the room opened, the sound of footsteps echoed on the shiny wooden floor. Jordan entered without hesitation, his body erect, his gaze sharp. Harvey turned his head slowly, the faint smile on his face vanishing as soon as he saw who was coming.There are no words. Only silence hangs between them like a reluctant night fog. Jordan stops right in front of Harvey, his back straight, his demeanor disciplined. His voice was calm, but there was firmness in it. "Mr. Harvey, they have carried out your orders."Harvey's eyes flashed faintly, but his expression remained unreadable."Stan has been taken to the military base," Jordan continued. "Starting today, he will be conscripted."For a moment, silence reigned in the r

    The sound of breaking glass echoed loudly in Stan's study, followed by a string of curses that broke the silence of the night. His harsh words echoed like thunder, filling every corner of the now cluttered room.The servants standing guard outside could only look down, their hands shaking. They had witnessed their master's anger many times, but never with such fury. Not a single one dared to approach, let alone go inside."Bastard!"Stan swung his arm brutally, throwing a large vase of flowers at the door. It hit the hardwood before shattering into pieces on the floor, water and flower petals splattering, creating a mess that mirrored his thoughts.His breathing was heavy, his chest rising and falling wildly. His eyes were red, full of unstoppable rage.The items in the room had been repeatedly smashed, but his anger remained smoldering, boiling inside him like an unquenchable fire.He clenched his hands so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

    Stan felt the heat radiate to his ears. His jaw hardened, his teeth grinding together until there was a faint sound of enamel scraping. His eyes widened, staring at Harvey as if he wanted to swallow him alive."Damn it! This guy is getting sassy!" he thought, hands clenched at his sides. His breathing began to get heavy, his chest rising and falling as a wave of anger boiled inside him. "I'm already groveling, and he's acting like he has all the power here?"Stan remained bent over, his body rigid as if there were invisible ropes holding him in that position. His jaw clenched tightly, and for a moment, his breath caught like a stone in his chest.He glanced to the side, looking for some support from Hillary and Gwen. Instead, both women looked at him with furrowed brows, their gazes demanding. Secretly, they were giving Stan the code to find a way out of this situation immediately."Shit! They want me to solve this problem myself?" Stan's eyes twitched. His throat felt dry. He knew fu

    "We..." Hillary opened her mouth, but her voice caught in her throat. Her throat felt dry, as if the air around her had turned to dust that clogged her breath. She glanced at Stan and Gwen, hoping for support, but they looked away. Their gazes were blank, their faces slightly pale, as if they had just realized the fatal mistake they had made.In front of them, Erik Reinhart stood tall. His eyes were sharp, almost piercing, as if to expose their lies and arrogance. The silence that hung in the air was oppressive, making every second seem so long.Hillary wrung her fingers, trying to quell the anxiety that was starting to creep in. She knew that one wrong word could backfire. Erik Reinhart was not a random person. If he wanted, he could make Julius Claymore literally throw them out of this party. One more mistake, and they would be the talk of all Duskvale-not as the elite, but as an embarrassing joke. For the first time that night, Hillary realized that they had lost control of the sit
