“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?”

Jordan gave Harvey an expectant look. Hoping that Harvey would give him the answer he wanted.

Three years ago, Harvey left his post to live like a civilian. That was how William Smith found him to be a commoner.

Harvey glanced at Jordan's cat-like gaze asking for food. However, Harvey firmly refused. “No, no, no. I will remain a civilian.”

Jordan frowned. Harvey was no longer tied to Whitley and the Smith family. Why would he not want to return to his position? This was enough to make Jordan confused.

It had been a long time since Harvey had enjoyed this kind of leisure time.

Jordan carried Harvey's bag. "General, let's go to your villa."

Jordan led Harvey to his lambo car. Then he opened the door for Harvey. They both climbed in and sped off to Harvey's villa. It was a large house. It was the villa that Harvey had abandoned, but was looked after by Jordan.

They both entered the house. Harvey placed his bag on a chair. He did not sit down immediately. He turned to face Jordan.

Jordan stood tall in front of him. “What is it, General?”

Harvey looked at his subordinate very casually. “Later, someone will report me to the police. Soon, there will be police looking for me.”

Jordan immediately furrowed his brows. “Huh? Who would dare do that to a general? How rude of him! I'll teach them a lesson.”

Harvey slightly looked at the back of his right palm. There was a trace of blood there. Then he looked calmly at Jordan. “That's the work of my wife's mistress.”

Jordan narrowed his eyes. In her opinion, it was something that should not be done to someone as big as Harvey.

Harvey exhaled. “Leave it alone. I want to see what he can do. Besides, I want to take revenge at them more viciously.”

Jordan was silent for a moment. Harvey stared ahead with a very cold face. If there was a fire in front of him, it would probably freeze instantly. Jordan loved that stare, a strong stare from Harvey. During the war, Harvey had often seen his comrades and men die. He would stare coldly like this if he was going to take revenge. And when he did, the enemy would be wiped out.

Jordan swallowed. “All right, General. I will prepare everything. Anyway, do you need anything else, General?”

Harvey sat down. “I want to rest. Go on.”

Jordan nodded respectfully. Then he slowly left the place. After he closed the door, he was sure that something big was going to happen. Because he had seen Harvey getting serious about doing something.

The next day, morning came. Harvey was eating the breakfast provided by the maid at Jordan's house. It was a morning meal that was enough to energize and warm up the body. Harvey savored it slowly.

A moment later, Jordan came over with a document. “General, this is exactly as you said.”

Jordan laid out the documents for Harvey. “There really was a report about your crime. That person reported you to the police.”

Harvey wasn't very interested in the documents. “So?”

Jordan pulled back the document. He took a breath. “They took the easy way out. They have some police contacts at the central police station. By giving those cops a little money, they think they can get you arrested. They've also lined up a good prosecutor.”

Harvey nodded. “Then we'll repay their bad deeds.”

Moments later, Harvey and Jordan headed to the downtown police station. It was a large place with several buildings and a large training center. Harvey and Jordan are walking from the parking lot to the main building. Currently, they wanted to meet one of Jordan's acquaintances who was inside this office.

Just then, a white BMW suddenly stopped in front of them. Slowly, the window of the car opened. A head with sunglasses smiled dimly at Harvey. His lips were turned up one side, and this person's face was quite annoying.

The man named James raised one eyebrow. “Oh, you even came to this place yourself to turn yourself in? Look at this loser. In these shabby clothes, you want to fight Mr. Andreas Brown. You'd better bow down and break your own nose in front of Lord Andreas. Maybe he will rethink about your punishment.”

James gave a small chuckle. He deliberately teased like that to provoke Harvey. Harvey did not bother about this. “Tell your lord to bow down and lick my feet so he can be free.”

James' laughter immediately stopped. His face became grim. He angrily got out of the car and slammed the door. His breathing became heavy and short.

He glared at Harvey and pointed at his face. “This bastard... how arrogant of you to say that.”

Harvey replied with a casual look despite the man's glare. Instead, the man turned his gaze to Jordan. Unlike Harvey, Jordan's clothes looked neater as he was wearing a suit.

He pointed at Jordan. “Is it because of this man that you've become arrogant, loser? This won't change the fact, you'll still be arrested and rot in jail! Because of what? Because you're a rat in a dumpster. Haha!”

Hearing that, Jordan's blood rose. He took a step forward to hit this man. However, his steps immediately stopped when he saw Harvey raise his palms up to his face, gesturing for him to stop.

Harvey tilted his head. “So you're the one Andreas hired? You turned out to be quite problematic.”

The laughter on James' face faded. He furrowed his brow with emotion. It was infuriating to hear the word problematic come out of Harvey's mouth.

Harvey could see the change in expression. It was a sign that James was responding to his words. “You got 400,000 dollars from the Brooks family to take care of the family's drug scandal. Your career as a lawyer will be instantly ruined if that case goes public.”

James glared. The muscles in his neck popped. “Shut up!”

    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

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.

    “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

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

    Doctor Aurelia glared. For a moment her eyes were glued to Harvey. However, a moment later she began to frown and her lips pulled back.She began to laugh amusedly after hearing what Harvey had just said. “Your joke is hilarious. What kind of person cuts his own hand like that? That wound is so deep, you could even lose your hand forever.”Although Doctor Aurelia laughed like that, Harvey did not laugh along with her. He just watched Doctor Aurelia without saying a single word. Until finally Doctor Aurelia turned to him. The laughter on the young doctor's lips began to fade.Harvey looked directly into Doctor Aurelia's eyes calmly. It was as if he was waiting to be heard. “I'm not joking.”Suddenly Doctor Aurelia furrowed her brows. She glared in disbelief at what she had just heard. “Are you out of your mind? You could be disabled for life! You should take care of your body, not destroy it like this. What you're doing could be killing yourself.”Harvey remained calm even though he wa

    “I didn't expect to be tested in this way.” Doctor Aurelia kept her surprise. In her heart, she was a little worried about this. “Thank you for testing me, General--”Harvey shook his head while frowning. “Call me Mr. Harvey, do not call me General.”Doctor Aurelia was silent for a moment. Calling a person of high rank by name directly felt awkward to Doctor Aurelia. Moreover, this man was the one who had led her when she was on the battlefield.Doctor Aurelia did know that Harvey had retired, but it felt rude to do so. Doctor Aurelia only smiled hesitantly at this moment.Harvey, who caught the hesitation, raised his head slightly. “Mr. Harvey, you can call me that. This is not on the battlefield.”Doctor Aurelia nodded. “Very well, Mr. Harvey.”Doctor Aurelia felt a great deal of awkwardness, but Harvey only gave a small nod. So Doctor Aurelia thought that this was the right thing to do.Doctor Aurelia exhaled. “Mr. Harvey, if you wanted to test me, why did you do such a dangerous 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.

    “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 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?

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.

    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

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
