Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

“…… put it on my tab first.” Jason didn’t look up as he spoke, turning his head away.

The shop manager wasn’t worried about the Harvey family owing the bill and instructed the waiter to put it in Jason’s name.

“What are you doing there?” Adeline took a few steps over to Jason, furious. Nothing was going well these days, one by one, against her wishes, and now even the man who always said he liked her best was learning to leave without saying goodbye.

“Sorry, honey, Denise and I are having a divorce and I have to go back to see it.” Jason had had a chance to spend time with her for once and didn’t want to leave it at that.

But with all the funds in his name frozen and Denise’s divorce no small matter, he had to go back and see.

He thought Adeline would understand if he said that, but she said with a grim face, “You don’t like her anyway, so let her get a divorce, what do you care?”

Grandpa Smith was indifferent, but he couldn’t stand to see his wife gossiping with other men, so he smiled stiffly, “We’ve seen enough here, let’s go look elsewhere.”

The customers had a desire to see what was going on, but he had already said go several times in a row, and if they had advised them further, they would have had to leave with regret as they could not save face.

“Her own husband is still here and she’s showing love to other men, I don’t know what she’s thinking …… No wonder her daughter is all about being a lover and killing people, it’s all genetic! That man is not a good thing either, shame on him!” The waiter came up to the shopkeeper and muttered in a low voice.

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he rushed to say, “Don’t talk nonsense!”

He glanced at Jason and Adeline who were arguing, I don’t think they heard ……

Jason, who was arguing with Adeline but still heard everything, lost some face and left stiffly with his arm around a still fractious Adeline.

–

After leaving the funeral site, James planned to go back to the Bamboo Estate, but halfway there, he asked the driver to make another turn and went to the old Harvey family home.

The three Harvey family brothers all live in the old Harvey family home, and when Mr. Lawson was around, they all seemed to be inseparable at best. Now that the old man is gone, they don’t even bother to pretend to be the same, and no one cares about anyone.

But as soon as word got out today that Denise was getting a divorce, the Rouco couple, along with the Raylan couple and Ralphie, all went to JasonDenise’s compound.

They were all there when James arrived and were probing Denise. When they saw him enter, they all froze in unison, then shut up in unison.

The living room was instantly silent.

James is indeed a little more irrational than he was before, but that is precisely why they are more scrupulous. James now does things without thinking about the consequences at all, and they can’t do that.

As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes, and they are those who wear shoes.

“James has lost a lot of weight recently, and by the looks of it, hasn’t slept well in the last few days, has he?” Rouco said with concern, “You can’t come back from the dead, you have to take care of your health.”

James put the bottle down and sat unassumingly on the sofa and said coldly, “You’re backing Ralphie as the new chairman?”

In the past, he was wild, but more or less collected, exchanging pleasantries before asking politely about things. Unlike now, he cuts to the chase and doesn’t even give the opportunity to beat around the bush.

Rouco’s face stiffened for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

Several other people looked at each other, fearing that James would ask about them.

But fearing what comes, James sat up a little straighter, leaning slightly like an advancing beast, “You guys support Ralphie too?”

Almost everyone he looked at kept their heads down and didn’t make a sound.

“I can’t blame everyone for this matter.” Ralphie said in a warm voice, “San, since Miss. Angela was away, you didn’t even go to the office. Later on, you even disregarded Harvey Group’s interests in order to put the Smith family out of business. I personally feel that the state you are in, is not ……”

James lifted his eyelids, his blood-stained eyes staring coldly at him, and said slowly, “Did I tell you to speak?”

“San, I ……” That was a bit of an understatement, and Ralphie’s face was a bit ugly.

But he only opened his mouth before James interrupted, “Shut up or I’ll have you thrown out, your choice.”

That statement was definitely not in jest and Ralphie knew it well. He changed his expression several times, a few shades brighter than his palette, but finally held his tongue and chose to shut up.

Raylan couldn’t look away, “If you don’t let Ralphie talk, you can always let me talk? James, you don’t get too cocky either, you’ve upset …… now”

“Ahem!” Rouco coughed dryly, “We’re here today to talk about the two oldest families, so don’t hurt the peace over something unrelated.”

The others followed suit, pretty much in the same vein as he did.

They thought it was over, but James stood up, stared at Raylan and said, “Who have I pissed off now? The ‘big man’ who stirred up the Harvey Group in connection with human experimentation?”

Hearing this, almost everyone’s face went white.

But Raylan, unlike everyone else, was still smug, “Yes, you’re right! He’s been approached by someone who said he’d blow the whistle on the human experiment if you stayed on as chairman and president!”

“He’s got his eye on my son now and wants to put Ralphie on top, so if you’ve got any sense, you’ll ……”

Rouco couldn’t stand it anymore and interrupted him with a voice, “Stop it!”

The stupid bastard!

He won’t let Raylan talk because he’s afraid the plan will go awry, but Raylan thinks he’s jealous of his son getting to the top, “Why shouldn’t I talk?”

Raylan tilted his chin at James, “If you have any sense, you’d better be polite to our family now! Even if the old man is gone, our family is not for you to bully!”

James didn’t even bother with him and just swept his face over the crowd, “I advise you not to do something so brainless.”

“What no brain? I think you’re just scared! Afraid that there’s no place for you in the Harvey family! But you brought this on yourself!” Raylan was not pleased to be ignored.

James still ignored him and simply said, “You guys stay out of my business now, and when I’m done with mine, the shares in my hands will be given to you. If you cooperate a little more and tell me who that person is, I can give you the rest of what I have in my hands.”

“But if you guys have to go along with that guy,” he sneered, “he doesn’t blow up about human experimentation, I do.”

Everyone, including Denise, was stunned at these words.

Rouco was not able to control his emotions and shouted, “Are you crazy? If it gets out about the human experiment, we’re all doomed!”
