2024-11-16 23:03:30“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 worked inside. One woman even furrowed her brow. Her lips curled downward. “He... I saw him a few times. Is he the husband of the rumored Miss Whitley?” “Shush! Why are you talking like that? He is not her husband. That man is just a caterer who delivers food. Besides, would the beautiful and perfect Miss Whitley choose such an ugly man for a husband?” “Ah, yes. You're right, tho.” They were talking quietly, but that didn't mean Harvey couldn't hear them. However, Harvey did not want to respond to that. It was natural for these people to say such things. Because Whitley was a highly respected woman in this office. She even had the looks and body of a model. Harvey, on the other hand, was someone who didn't have a job. Of course, everyone thought Harvey was not Whitley's man. Harvey walks away and enters an elevator. When the elevator door was about to close, someone held the door. Then a man dressed in a cream-colored suit entered and pressed the button for the 4th floor. Since he entered, Harvey's face had changed slightly. Harvey recognized this man. He was Andreas Brown. The person Whitley was working with. However, he liked Whitley even though he knew she already had a husband. Andreas realized that he was being watched. He turned his head and looked at Harvey from bottom to top. A slight smirk was painted on his face. “You're... you're delivering catering to Whitley again? You'd better stop. She won't eat it.” Harvey furrowed his brow. He looked straight ahead, paying no attention to Andreas who continued to brush him off. “None of your business.” Hearing that, Andreas chuckled. “You faithfully do this every day, but you don't even know that Whitley doesn't eat it at all? You really are useless, Harvey.” Harvey turned his head while glancing sharply at Andreas. The man's smile looked very annoying in Harvey's eyes. “You don't know anything, Andreas. You don't know conjugal relations at all.” Andreas laughed and shook his head. He thought Harvey's words were hilarious. He doesn't seem to have any empathy for Harvey's offense. A moment later, the elevator doors opened. Right on the floor where Andreas was headed. “Oh, this is a sign I need to get away from someone like you. Someone who is useless. Oh yeah, tell Whitley I'll take her out to eat tomorrow.” After saying that, Andreas smiled with satisfaction as he walked out. Leaving Harvey who looked at him sharply. Harvey didn't let go of his gaze until it was blocked by the closing elevator doors. “You bastard...” A real man would know not to bother a woman who already has a partner. However, it seemed like Andreas' vein of shame had been broken. He even deliberately provoked Harvey like that. Harvey let out a long breath. People like Andreas had always existed. Until one day, Harvey would not remain silent if he was insulted like that. The elevator opened on the 6th floor, where Whitley was. Harvey took a deep breath. Then he let out a big smile. In order to get rid of the annoyance after meeting that jerk. With steady steps he headed for a room with a black door. He knocked on it three times. A moment later the door opened. A large, beautiful eye peeked out from behind the door. It was Whitley Smith. Harvey's wife. Harvey smiled as he picked up the lunch he was carrying. “Whitey, I'm coming.” Whitley immediately opened the door and stood there. As if preventing Harvey from entering. She folded her arms across her chest. Harvey then handed him the lunch he had made. “I brought this for you, Whitley. As usual. You must be hungry--” “I'm not hungry!” Whitley answered immediately without waiting for Harvey to finish his sentence. Harvey wrinkled his forehead. “I've made lunch for you. I guarantee it tastes really good--” Whitley immediately grabbed the lunch in the small bag. His blue eyes glared at Harvey. “Stop it already. I'm not taking any more of this from you. I've already got food anyway.” Harvey tilted his head. He was quite surprised by Whitley's sudden outburst. “Have you eaten?” “Yes, I ate. Together with Andreas.” Whitley answered Harvey firmly. She then looked at the lunch container Harvey had brought. “I don't need this!” Whitley rudely threw the lunch into the trash. It made Harvey open his eyes wide. His chest hurt when Whitley did that. However, Harvey endured it. Only his face turned bright red. Whitley clucked his tongue. “I don't need you to keep coming to this office. Get the hell out of here! I don't want to see your face for tomorrow and beyond. Get out or I'll call security.” Harvey frowned. He turned around and walked away. He could hear the door slamming behind him. Harvey felt the need to calm down, so he took a walk in the garden and sat there. Whenever Shawn was in a bad mood, he did this every now and then. Sitting there for a long time while feeling the breeze would make him become more relaxed. However, it seemed like he was too lost in thought to notice that the sun was almost all the way down. Harvey hurriedly stood up and walked home. “I stayed out too long.” When Harvey arrived home and parked his motorcycle, he saw several cars that he recognized. They belonged to the Smith family. It looked like they were having a family party inside. Harvey frowned. “If there's a family party, why wasn't I invited? I'd better go in to make a good impression.” Harvey smilingly entered the house. However, he was surprised to find that not only the Smiths but also Andreas Brown were at the party. He casually stood next to Whitley with one arm around her. Even Whitley was smiling happily. Harvey immediately glared and furrowed his brows. “Whitley? What's going on? Why is Andreas here?” Harvey's words brought all attention to him. The looks in those eyes were very sarcastic towards Harvey. Even the atmosphere turned very serious. Whitley, who had been smiling, also dropped her lips. The woman saw this as an opportunity. She let out a loud voice that the whole room could hear. “Everyone, I have an important announcement. It's very exciting news. I'm divorcing Harvey!” Harvey suddenly opened his eyes wide. His body was rooted to the spot. Didn't he hear it wrong?

“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

“What the hell is he? So annoying!” Whitley snorted while averting her gaze.Valencia herself was still stunned by the incident. Her head was having a hard time processing what she had just seen. In her mind, she kept wondering. “Harvey? Harvey Wilder? He drove that expensive and rare car?”Until the car pulled away, Valencia's eyes were still glued to the BMW. She swallowed. “Whitley, you saw that, right? Harvey is riding in that car.”Whitley immediately glanced sarcastically at the woman next to him. “Valencia, he's a poor man! He's also very useless and annoying. Don't ever mention that name in front of me again. Remember, he got us kicked out of this jewelry store.”Valencia immediately realized that. The look on her face instantly changed. “I almost forgot about him. He's a bastard!”Whitley sighed. “Ah, never mind! Thinking about that guy makes me want to throw up. There's no point in thinking about that bastard.”Valencia let out a long breath. Today's plan to go shopping was

“Help! Help!” A man shouted loudly while holding his friend's hand. It was Jordan who held Harvey's hand.He brought Harvey to the Emergency Unit of the hospital they had built. It was still untidy, so there were not only doctors and nurses, but also some other workers. Who were preparing things.Suddenly, the people there were surprised by the arrival of the two people. Moreover, the blood from Harvey's hand continued to drip on the floor.Jordan shouted again, making a scene. “Help! My friend is hurt! The blood won't stop. Is there a doctor here?”Seeing an injured and pale-faced person, several nurses and doctors approached Jordan and Harvey. One of the doctors looked on in panic. “What's going on? Why is someone injured?”Jordan held the doctor's hand. “You're a doctor, right? Hurry up and help my friend. He's hurt badly!”Jordan was pleading and panicking. Even his hands were shaking and he was breaking out in cold sweat. His demeanor was as convincing as one who had lost hope.T

“Uncle Cole?” Andreas's eyebrows knitted together like threads, the tips bending downward. His lips curled downward, along with the disappointment he felt. His mind was like a tangle of threads trying to make sense of Cole's words, but the more he tried to unravel the more lost his mind became. “Why is Uncle Cole suddenly saying this?”Andreas pointed at Harvey's face with a sharp movement, breaking the air in front of him. His eyes widened, as if his eyeballs were emitting lightning, full of fury like a newly ignited fire. “He's a troublemaker? Why should I apologize to him?” Andreas' jaw hardened to say it. His voice trembled, full of pressure.Cole opened his eyes even wider, the anger and worry in his eyes becoming more and more implicit. With a nervous movement, he pulled Andreas to his feet. “You don't understand. Hurry up and apologize, damn nephew!”Andreas clenched his teeth even more, making his jaw hard to hold back his emotions. His heart was beating faster with bated brea

“What?” Andreas tilted his head slightly, his eyebrows knitted together like intertwined threads. His eyes narrowed further, sweeping Rolland's face questioningly.Andreas took a deep breath, his chest puffed out firmly with confidence. His movements, though slow but firm, seemed to give the impression that he was not a random person. Even though he knew that the person talking to him was a respected figure in Duskvale, it was not enough to suppress Andreas' ego. To him, his uncle had contributed to this country. He was a hero who needed to be honored. So Andreas also needed to be honored as a member of his family.The look of respect for Rolland faded, Andreas' gaze became more challenging. “Governor, do you not know who I am?”Andreas pointed at himself with a slight smug grin. As the son of the Brown family, surely many people should recognize him.Rolland furrowed his brows like intertwined threads. He took a good look at the young man's face, he didn't feel like inviting a young

All eyes were glued to the man who held the security guard's hand without fear. Slowly, their eyes opened wide as if they saw something unexpected.One man there noticed the person. He caught his breath and held it. “Wait, isn't he Dean Watson?”The guests froze instantly in their places. Some of their eyebrows rose high, while exchanging glances with each other. Whispers began to flow like waves. One of the women gulped and her mouth began to open. “The Dean Watson you're referring to... That Dean Watson, right?”With his head slightly tilted, the man nodded confidently. Even his jaw hardened as if it could not be shaken. “Yes, Dean Watson, the Commander who guards the northern region of Royota harbor.”The invited guests held their breath for a moment, their eyes rounded even more as they glanced at the Commander. They began to whisper whether the person in front of them was really Dean Watson.The man glanced at Dean Watson with admiring eyes. Slowly, his mouth opened. “Commander D

The crowd of pairs of eyes opened wide as if frozen after Andraes said that. Their minds seemed to drift away, unable to believe what they had just heard.“Huh? He's an important person invited by Governor Rolland West?” A man in a bow tie couldn't take his eyes off Andreas.A blonde woman beside him covered her mouth with the palm of her hand. “Oh, he knows the Governor well?”“I heard Governor Rolland West invited someone very important. Is that the man in question? He's the son of the Brown family, right?” a man pointed at Andreas with confidence. The excitement made all the guests start whispering about Governor Rolland West's special guest.In the guests' minds, getting an invitation to this party was already very difficult. Let alone getting a special invitation. Surely that person was someone very important to the Governor.Admiring glances continued to rain down on Andreas. He really enjoyed the little sounds of praise being showered on him. Before he knew it, the corners of h

A click of the tongue sounded loudly from Whitley's red lips. As if the words of the waiter were not valid. The woman folded her arms across her chest while glaring fiercely at the waitress. “What are you saying, waiter? Did you forget about your partner just now?”“Pardon?” the waiter frowned, he let out a hesitant smile mixed with fear. His breath was slightly held as he felt the pressure from this woman. “Forgot?”Whitley tilted his head, then he glanced sharply at Harvey, as if ready to puncture the man's embarrassment. “You should be doing well, Waiter. Even the information about the waiter named Harvey is incomprehensible to you. Your performance is really very poor. You were hired at such a luxurious party.”The waitress made a face. His eyes lowered slightly, as if avoiding Whitley's sharp gaze. “However, that cannot prove that this gentleman is a waiter.”Andreas then stepped in front of the waiter with intimidatingly firm steps. His eyes were sharp like a predator ready to p

The sound of Andreas's loafer steps slowly approached. With a smug face, the man smiled faintly at Harvey. Underestimating Harvey's presence in this place. “Oh, it's a surprise to see you here.”His footsteps stopped right next to Whitley. Casually, Andreas' hand curled around Whitley's neck, and then he took hold of Whitley's shoulder. He gently stroked the smooth skin of the shoulder, as if it were his own.The thin, dismissive smile grew wider, as if eager for Harvey to see what he could do. “I don't know what tricks you use, Harvey. However, seeing a poor man like you dressed up like this is very off-putting to me. It looks inappropriate.”Andreas furrowed his brows and shook his head. It was as if he was forbidding a child to play in the mud.Whitley snorted, his lips pulled back, making a dismissive smile bloom. His gaze lowered to HArvey, he agreed with Andreas' opinion. “That's right... this outfit doesn't suit you very well, Harvey. You're better suited in a dull, holey t-shi

“Here we are.” Andreas and Whitley entered the hall of a large, imposing building. The room was huge and tall, with beautiful lights hanging from it. Classical music from pianos and violins was being played nicely by the musicians. The voices even sounded very polite to the ears, perfectly fitting the relaxed atmosphere.Johan and Patricia joined hands behind Andreas and Whitley. The smiles on their faces blossomed like flowers. A feeling of pride welled up in their chests. Attending this party was an honor they were looking forward to.Patricia's eyes lit up when she saw how beautiful this party was. She exhaled a cold breath as she smiled at her husband. “Honey, this is great.”Johan nodded slowly as he returned Patricia's smile. Her eyes sparkled with happiness. “Cole has invited us here. Let's just enjoy the party, Patricia.”Patricia gave her husband the sweetest smile she had not given him in a long time. Her eyes slowly glanced at some of the people who were chatting. “Oh, dea

“Mr. Johan, good morning!” A pretty secretary in a red dress greeted Johan Brown with a friendly smile. She bowed, showing her deep respect for Johan.Johan returned her friendly smile with a slight nod of his head. “Good morning Kelly.”With slow movements, he opened the door to his room. Then he walked in and sat proudly in the chair.Kelly entered with graceful steps, her high heels making a soft sound on the marble floor. In her hand, a steaming mug of latte coffee, emitting a sweet aroma that filled the room.“Please, Mr. Johan.” Kelly placed the cup on the table with a careful gesture, as if the coffee was something precious.Johan greeted her with a faint smile as he nodded. “You know very well I can't start my morning without a latte.”Kelly smiled, revealing perfect white teeth. “Of course, sir. You are the pillar of this company. It's my job to make sure you're always ready to face the day.”Johan lifted his cup, sipping slowly. The bitter-sweet taste of the coffee was like

Harvey stared at the hospital construction report with keen eyes, taking in every detail. "Great..." his words came out quietly, barely audible, but full of meaning. His sharp eyes showed a faint satisfaction, observing the faster progress than he had anticipated.On the other side of the table, the report lay, but Harvey's gaze remained fixed on the results of the hard work that had materialized. Doctor Aurelia had already attracted many patients, even before the hospital had opened its doors. Harvey took a deep breath, creating silence between the crinkling sounds of the paper touching. The woman's dedication, which he could clearly see, made a faint smile etched at the corner of his lips.Not an ordinary smile of happiness, but rather a kind of wordless acknowledgment. It was the smile of a leader who knew when to reward. He looked down at the cup of coffee that had been filled from earlier, then took it slowly. The black liquid slid down his throat, giving a different warmth with
