The Great Commander Strikes Back Chapter 70-2
Whitley let out a long breath, a faint smile spread across her lips. Her eyebrows rose slowly, her eyes narrowed like a cat stalking prey. "Of course, Mother," she said, her voice smooth yet confident. "I am your daughter. Besides, Harvey seems like he'll be easy for me to conquer." Her arms were crossed over her chest, her posture erect like that of a commanding queen. Her legs were neatly folded, adding to the impression that she was in complete control of the situation. "You must remember him when he was at this house, right?"Whitley glanced at her mother, her eyes sparkling like a lamp that had suddenly turned on. Her fingers tapped the arms of the chair in a rapid rhythm, as if her mind was hard at work devising her next plan.Gina frowned, her smile growing slowly, but her eyes remained sharp, as if questioning whether Whitley was really ready to face Harvey. "Of course," she said, her voice soft but meaningful. "He always does what I tell him to do, even if it makes him lose h

Harvey stepped in front of the host. Without hesitation, he dropped 5 million dollars into a box. Everyone was amazed at what Harvey had done, even the host didn't know what to say.Whitley's eyes widened like they were going to pop out. Her chin dropped to the ground and her mind raced. "Huh? He really gave 5 million dollars to this show? This isn't a joke, is it?"Whitley's breathing became a little heavy. Her eyebrows began to wrinkle like shredded paper. "What the hell is that? That much money goes to natural disaster victims and the poor. That's too much money to give to people he doesn't know," Whitley protested inwardly. Slowly her lips tilted as if harboring resentment. "That much money should belong to me, not lowly people like them. Just imagine how many clothes and jewelry I could buy with 5 million."However, Whitley soon realized that her thoughts of buying luxury items had to be put on hold. She closed her eyes while holding her chest. A breath came out of his mouth soft

Harvey squinted, trying to adjust his vision to the scorching sun. His lips were pressed tightly together, as if he was holding back something he wanted to say. Whitley's words still hung in the air, feeling as clear as the light reflecting off the road surface. There was such a strong confidence in her voice-an absolute conviction that seemed impossible to shake. Naturally, with a respected family background, alluring looks, and undeniable intelligence, Whitley always spoke as if the world was within her grasp.A faint smile spread across Whitley's lips, her eyes sparkling in the reflected afternoon light. Harvey was still silent, and to Whitley, that was a clear sign. If the man's feelings had truly vanished, why didn't he argue immediately?Her steps came closer, the afternoon breeze blowing her long hair. With a confident gesture, her slender fingers reached out, touching Harvey's hand that felt warm in the sunlight. “Harvey,” her voice sounded softer, almost a whisper amidst the

“What's going on?”“What's going on over there?”Whispers began to echo through the crowd. Curious gazes were fixed on Whitley and Harvey, as if they were an interesting spectacle in the middle of a hot day.Whitley frowned, fine lines beginning to appear on her forehead. A sense of unease ran through her body as she realized more and more eyes were watching. Quickly, she stepped closer, her voice low, yet demanding.“Harvey!” she called softly, almost like an urgent whisper. “You should be doing me a favor right now. Do you want us to keep getting attention like this? It's embarrassing!”Her eyes bore into Harvey's intensely, the look both pleading and pressing. She inched closer, her voice sounding sharper. “Tell me quickly that we're actually husband and wife!”Harvey gave a small snort, almost a laugh that refused to leave his lips. With a casual gesture, he raised his head slightly, giving the impression of superiority without having to say it. The look in his eyes remained calm,

A golf club was swung vigorously, creating a sharp swish in the air before hitting the ball with a clean thud. The ball shot up, piercing the blue sky before falling on the green expanse in the distance.The woman who hit it smiled with satisfaction. With a casual gesture, she took off her hat, letting her hair flow slightly in the wind. The thin sweat on her forehead glistened in the sunlight, and as she wiped it away with the back of her hand, the few men around could not hide their admiring gazes.Around him, the other players took turns swinging their sticks. Each blow produced a sharp thud, followed by a satisfied cheer or a disappointed murmur.“Look, I went farther!” one of the men exclaimed proudly, his chest puffed out as he pointed to his ball that went farther than the others.Some of his colleagues just chuckled softly, some glanced sarcastically before refocusing on their own shots.In the midst of the low noise, a man steps up slowly, almost silently. Harvey. His movemen

Harvey raised his head, looking at Garry with icy eyes. His lips were drawn slightly to the side, not in a smile, but more like a barely perceptible hint of annoyance. “Do I know you?” he said flatly, as if the existence of the man in front of him was completely unimportant. Her voice was low, almost lazy, like someone who was forced to talk to a stranger at an unwanted time.Garry suddenly frowned, the line between his eyebrows hardening. His jaw tightened, while the air in his lungs boiled. “Hey, of course you know me!” he snapped, his voice slightly raised.He slipped one hand into his pants pocket, the movement relaxed, though there was tension in it. His lips curved in a mocking smile. “You're Whitley Smith's husband, aren't you?” he said, his tone now laden with mockery. “The trashy guy who always brings lunch boxes to Smith's corporate office.”She sighed dramatically, then shook her head slowly as if seeing something pathetic. “If I'm being honest, you really don't belong next
The Great Commander Strikes Back Chapter 76
Harvey raised an eyebrow, his expression flat as if he didn't understand Garry's accusation. "Why is this my fault?" he asked, his voice sounding lazy. "If you want to play golf, just play."He glanced at his watch. There were still ten minutes before his appointment time. Inwardly, she regretted coming too early. If he had known this, he would have spent his time elsewhere instead of listening to the useless babble of these people.Garry fingered his still throbbing head, his eyes blazing with suppressed anger. His breath was ragged, like coals ready to ignite a fire. He stared at Harvey with a vengeful glare, his lips curled in a dismissive smirk. "Harvey, you probably don't know because you're too poor," he said, his voice laden with mockery. "But I am the VIP of this place. If you won't obey me, I can just get you kicked out."Harvey didn't react. Only one eyebrow slightly raised, his expression remained calm, as if even the wind blowing was more interesting to him than Garry's r
The Great Commander Strikes Back Chapter 77
Garry clenched his fists, his breathing ragged. His eyes stared angrily at Harvey, as if he couldn't believe the man in front of him was so indifferent. “You're so shameless!” his voice trembled, not from fear, but from having his pride trampled on. ”How dare you talk to me like that! You're really looking for trouble!” Beside him, Gian was also affected. His face flushed, his eyes widened as if a fire had been ignited inside him. With quick steps, he approached Garry, his chin raised in an arrogant expression. “This is too much!” he growled. “Throw him out!” Garry couldn't contain his emotions anymore. His blood was boiling. He turned his head to the right, his eyes instantly searching for a figure who could help him. “Security!” he shouted, his voice echoing through the driving range. “There are people looking for trouble here!”Four well-built security men immediately surrounded Garry. Their faces were hard, jaws clenched as if ready to enforce the rules without compromise.

"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
Harvey 148-1
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

"Wait," Josh muttered. His forehead furrowed deeply, realizing something wasn't right. Jacob's gesture just now-pushing him aside-was not a welcome, but a subtle rejection. But it's clear enough to Josh. His eyes immediately turned to Harvey who was still calmly standing a few steps away from him. Josh's gaze became sharp and piercing, as if he wanted to pierce the man's face and seek answers. Inside his mind, thousands of words rushed into chaos. "What the hell is this? I came here with a big name, with an audience of millions! I'm the most influential political interviewer on social media. All the leaders know who I am!" "And now? A strange man is standing there-not known, not viral-but Jacob goes to him first?" Josh snorted. His mind struggled. "No, no, no. This must be a mistake. There can't be anyone more famous than me. There can't be anyone more important." Harvey took a quick glance, then returned to staring straight ahead. To Harvey, the man didn't deserve any more a
