The Great Commander Strikes Back Chapter 149
“What do you think I am, Harvey?” says Vanessa as she bends one leg lightly, one hand perched casually on her waist. Her smile is curved, confident, like someone who knows all the attention is always on her. “I'm a movie star and host at Kaelvarion.”Harvey frowned. From the way Vanessa straightened her body, chin slightly raised, and shoulders unmoving under people's gazes, she didn't need to be given a stage to shine.“Yes?” he replied softly, half astonished, half amazed.Vanessa cast a quick glance at the clothing store behind them. Behind the glass display cases, the customers were pretending to be busy choosing clothes, but their eyes kept stealing glances, as if they didn't want to miss a second of the drama happening outside.Vanessa's eyes narrowed, her gaze now frozen. The warmth that had enveloped her voice earlier disappeared, replaced by a piercing cold like an uninvited winter wind. “It's not the first time or twice I've met someone who can stab me in the back,” she sai

“Finally, it's done.” Harvey smiled after putting some lettuce in the lunch box. The color combination of the fruit, lettuce, and some of the other foods was very nice to look at. This was enough to make Harvey feel happy. “Oh, I didn't expect it to be this good.”Harvey quickly closed the lunch. Then he got ready to drive her to the office where his wife worked. As he usually did.Harvey's wife worked in the city center, so he needed a scooter to reach the office. It was quite a journey that exhausted him due to the hot sun during the journey.Harvey arrived at a large building. Then he entered the building. However, the doorman there did not seem very friendly to Harvey.The doorman who was sitting reading a newspaper clicked his tongue when he glanced over. “You again. Just go in and finish your business! You don't need to fill out the visitor's book.”Harvey continued his journey to his wife's study. It was not only the doorman who looked down on Harvey, but also the people who w

“What are you doing, Whitley? Is this a joke?” Harvey continued to stare straight at Whitley with his eyebrows bent downward. Harvey tried to smile and assume everything Whitley said was a joke. Even his smile became very strange and dubious. “There's no way you'd say something like this at a party.”This was a special party for the family. They must have wanted to surprise him, so they told Whitley to say that. Harvey kept thinking positively about all of this.However, their faces didn't seem to change. They were still sarcastically looking at Harvey. Whitley herself tilted his head and looked up slightly. “I'm telling the truth. There are no lies or jokes now. Look around you, do they think I'm joking?”Shawn glanced at the people there. It turned out that they were looking down on Shawn. Giving him a disgusted look in their eyes.“You are an ordinary man who entered this family because of my grandfather's orders.” Whitley's brows furrowed and the edges rose. Her face began to tur

“How did that happen? I heard that you were very fond of Mrs. Whitley Smith.” Jordan wrinkled his forehead. He was too shocked to hear the news. “Didn't I ask you to talk about your identity to Mrs. Smith months ago? I thought you already said that.” Harvey shook his head slowly. “I didn't. That woman doesn't deserve to know.” Harvey glanced quietly at Jordan. “She's been having an affair with another man.” Jordan was stunned. She was speechless after hearing Harvey's words. For now, he didn't know what to do. He could only see how stern Harvey's expression was in the face of this situation. This was quite puzzling, and it even replayed in Jordan's mind. “Why would a woman throw away a general like this? Is that woman stupid?” The atmosphere became quiet. Jordan needed to break the silence. “General. So, are you able to return to the war?” Harvey turned his head without replying to Jordan's question. Jordan took a breath. “Will you be returning to your position, General?” Jor

James' eyes bulged. The words said by Harvey had really gone too far. It was something that shouldn't be talked about here. James was very sensitive when it came to that.James clucked his tongue. “In the end, today is your last day of free air.”Jordan wrinkled his forehead. He wanted to punch this guy, but Harvey wouldn't let him. Jordan was annoyed that James was acting so much when he didn't even know who he was dealing with. It was different with Harvey. Harvey had been silent all day while staring calmly at James. He didn't even blink and didn't answer anything James said. No one knew that Harvey was enjoying the plot that James was about to play.James turned around slowly while continuing to stare at Harvey. “Either way, you're going to jail. Enjoy this fresh air, which you can only breathe for a few minutes.”The man haughtily walked into the police station. Meanwhile, Harvey was still standing there looking at him without responding.Jordan narrowed his eyes slightly. “A ve

Harvey and Jordan walk out of the police station. James Rocks' arrest happened so quickly, even with just Jordan showing his face. Jordan still glances at Harvey, hoping that Harvey is satisfied with what he has just done. Harvey just stayed silent with a calm face.Jordan looked at his cell phone. A report came to him. “Mr. Harvey, a gift has been delivered to Andreas Brown. A love letter from the police.”Jordan grinned. Commander Piers was more dexterous than Jordan had expected.Harvey kept walking casually. He nodded slowly. “Good. The man needs to feel a little tension.”Jordan agreed with Hervey's words. As a person under a general, he knew very well the consequences of doing the wrong thing in front of a legend like Harvey. Of course someone like Andreas Brown would have a miserable life ahead of him. Having an affair with the general's wife is certainly not a light sin.At the Brown family residence, Andreas panicked when two men in police uniforms came to his house. The two

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

“There's the loser!” Valencia pointed at Harvey who had just come out of the store.Harvey came out holding his cell phone to his ear. He walked slowly and calmly. Being so focused, he didn't really care about the trivial things around him. He finally stops when Whitley and Valencia stand in front of Harvey with their arrogance.The two women look down on Harvey and fold their arms across their chest. Harvey hangs up the phone.Whitley clucked. “What cheap tricks do you use to fool the people at the store? You're always up to something annoying.”Being forcibly evicted by the most elite jewelry store had certainly hurt Whitley's pride as well as Valencia's. What would the world say if everyone knew that they were expelled from here? Of course they would lose face. Therefore, they deliberately wait for Harvey outside to restore their pride and prove that Harvey can't do things as he pleases. Whitley and Valencia were going to show Harvey who was boss.Valencia raised one eyebrow. “Did

"I-I..." Susan's voice was hoarse. "Mr. Fred... I didn't mean-"Before she could finish her sentence, Vanessa's voice cut in. Cold. Firm. "Your salesgirl made a fatal mistake."The words were spoken without raising her voice, but each syllable echoed like the clink of a hammer in the suddenly silent room. The people around held their breath, the atmosphere tense. Fred turned to Susan, then back to Vanessa - her face had paled, as if she knew a big storm was about to hit her shop.The manager's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. "I'm sorry, what exactly happened, Miss Vanessa?" his voice was low, almost trembling.Vanessa didn't answer immediately. She lifted the cell phone in her hand slowly - the movement alone was enough to shake things up. The screen faced Fred, displaying a row of secretly snapped photos. Vanessa's gaze was piercing, sharp like cracked glass about to shatter."Your salesgirl is playing the role of paparazzi in this shop," she said cold

Vanessa furrowed her brows. "Photos?" she asked quietly, but her tone was stressed.She turns quickly to Harvey, searching for an explanation with her eyes. But Harvey remains calm, like a stone statue who knows the storm is coming - and he's ready for it.Harvey's gaze never leaves Susan. His eyes are sharp and frozen, like an eagle that has locked onto its prey. His cold aura made the air around them feel tense.Susan, who had been so loud, now seemed to lose her breath. Her throat moved up and down as she gulped. The hand holding her cell phone began to sweat. Her fingers trembled slightly, trying to keep herself from panicking.Vanessa leered at her. "What do you mean about photos?" This time her tone was darker, almost a warning tone.Susan fell silent. Her lips parted, but no sound came out. Her eyes moved nervously, looking for an excuse, an opening to escape, or even just air."Don't pretend to know nothing," Harvey's voice was quiet but firm, still without looking away. "You
Chapter 147
The tip of Harvey's smile was still hanging on his face when Susan's gaze changed - just for a moment, before settling back down. But for Harvey, who was used to reading gestures like an open book, that was enough. He saw how Susan's shoulders tensed slightly, and her fingers gripped the end of the cell phone too tightly."What do you mean, sir?" asked Susan in a sweet voice that was no longer as elegant as before. Her eyeballs were piercing, trying to find an opening, confirming whether Harvey really knew... or was just guessing.Harvey just stared at the clothes on the hanger, his fingers gently touching the fabric, as if he didn't care. "Only people with bad intentions disguise themselves as walls," he muttered softly. "And only cunning people need proof of stealth."He turned around slowly, finally facing her directly. Her eyes were calm, but they contained something that made the air between them harden-like the air before a heavy rain.Susan tried to chuckle, but it sounded dry.

"Mr. Harvey-" Vanessa turned her head with a bright smile, like a morning glow through the fog. However, her steps were halted when Harvey raised one hand, palm facing his chest.His smile was thin, barely visible, but enough to show his typical cold manners. "Call me Harvey," he said calmly. His voice was soft, but firm, like the tone of a man who had long been accustomed to formality, but never really enjoyed it."After all, you are a big star, Ms. Vanessa. It would be strange if you were the one to call me 'Mr.'."Vanessa frowned, sweet but amused. Her hands folded lightly on her chest, one of her fingers rose, tapping lightly on the corner of her pink lips. Her gaze seemed to be considering something."Hmmm... Then," she said as she tilted her head slightly to the right, "We agree not to use formal language. Agreed?"Her eyes looked at Harvey like she was challenging, but more playfully than seriously. The atmosphere becomes a little warmer - as if two polar opposites are trying t
Chapter 145-2
Harvey stepped out of the apartment, letting the afternoon light greet his face. Rainvale's air smells of warm asphalt and coffee from the small shops lining the sidewalks. The sky casts an orange tinge onto the windows of the tall buildings, creating a glaring yet beautiful reflection.The quick steps of people crowded around him-uniformed clerks, young men with sling bags, couriers with helmets still on their heads. No one notices Harvey. And Harvey has no intention of revealing himself.He walks slowly, letting the heels of his shoes make light contact with the surface of the busy street. His eyes traced the passing faces-focused eyes, deft hands holding a document, a cell phone, or a hot cup of coffee.Unconsciously, a faint smile appeared on his lips. "They don't waste time," he murmured softly, almost as if talking to her own reflection. "Just like us... on the battlefield."Harvey's steps led him to the city's shopping center-a district of tall, glass-fronted buildings, storefr

Harvey tilted his head slightly, like an eagle assessing its prey from a distance. His gaze is sharp, yet his face remains calm, almost lifeless. He didn't speak, just let the silence bind Jacob tighter.Jacob's small movements didn't go unnoticed-the way the man crossed his fingers near his knees, the way his breath faltered before coming out slowly. The pressure was real."Tell me," Harvey said softly, almost a gentle command that left no room for refusal.Jacob lowered his head slightly, as if summoning courage from the remnants of his breath. "We found... something," he said quietly. "A strange signal. Very alien. The source is from the border-we think it's Jorania."Harvey let out a long breath, then slowly leaned back against the couch. His movements were calm, but there was a faint note of boredom at the edge of his voice. "After Daso tried to play with fire by infiltrating spies, now it's Jorania's turn to stir up trouble."Jacob turned his head quickly, as if jolted by a fact
Chapter 144-2
Harvey and Jordan stepped into a large room that was dimly lit and luxuriously appointed. The atmosphere was quiet, yet it felt as if important conversations were hanging in the air.Jacob walked ahead of them, then turned around and gestured toward a soft, darkly upholstered sofa. "Have a seat," he said, gesturing to the spot.Without waiting long, he turned to a long-haired woman standing not far from the small table. "Claire, please prepare drinks for our guests. And make sure no one disturbs them. Lock the door after this."Claire smiled gently and nodded politely. The heels of her shoes tapped on the wooden floor as she walked away. However, before actually walking away, her eyes caught a glimpse of Harvey. It was only an instant-but in that brief glance, her brows tightened slightly.For some reason, there was something about the man that made the air around him seem to change. The cold yet sharp aura emanating from Harvey made Claire hold her breath for a split second, as if he

Josh clenched his jaw. His jaw was hard as stone, showing just how strong he was to hold back the embers burning in his chest. Jacob's cold words felt like a public slap-sharp, cold, and humiliating.She was silent. Her eyes narrowed, glancing briefly at Jacob, as if trying to find an opening to fight back... but finding none. Her face flushed slowly, not from embarrassment, but from anger that was about to spill out. The muscles in her hands tightened, and her chin lifted slightly, a sign of an ego that refused to be hurt.However, his mind was still sane. This was not the place to act rashly. Jacob was no ordinary person-he was a major figure in Kaelvarion. Messing up in front of him was tantamount to social suicide.Josh pressed his lips together. He took a long, deep breath, until his chest rose and fell slowly. He exhaled slowly, as if he wanted to expel the boiling embers from within him. His heartbeat was still fast, but he forced it to slow down. This was not the time. Not yet
