Chapter 2530
“Rest assured. I won‘t make it hard for you. Young Lord York already warned us about it. Even though
your family has already joined forces with Harvey, for Young Lord York‘s sake, we can only take you
hostage at most. We won‘t hurt you one bit. That‘s why you better cooperate with me. Don‘t try to resist.
If not, I‘m sorry if I accidentally leave a scratch on your pretty face!”
Rumiko calmly pulled out a dagger. She wanted to take Leslie down before using the chance to threaten
Harvey.
Swoosh!
Right at this moment, a person rolled off Naoto‘ s body cart before stabbing Rumiko right in her
stomach.
Splat!
Blood violently spurted out of Rumiko‘s mouth before she instinctively moved backward. There was no

room other than Leslie and her.
It was too late to regret her decision. She tried to run out of the morgue since there was no time for her to
question Leslie.
Slap!
Another person showed up the moment Rumiko stepped out of the door before slapping her across her
face.
Rumiko‘s face was swollen red when she was sent flying before smashing into an iron frame in the
corner of the wall. She wanted to stand back up, but a terrifying force ravaged inside
her, making her completely powerless while cold sweat dripped down her back.
Harvey calmly walked inside the room, then sized up Rumiko.
“Ms. Takei?” Harvey said while chuckling. “Tsk tsk tsk! Is your family really that short on staff? You even
have to do the killing yourself? Just tell me if you don‘t have the money! I‘ll hire a few killers on the top of
the list for you! It‘d be embarrassing if people were to find out that the Takei family tried assassinating me
on their own because they didn‘t want to waste any money! It‘s humiliating to me, you know?”
Harvey calmly walked forward and removed the mask off the forensic scientist, revealing a beautiful face
that was quite similar to Naoto.
“How did you know I was going to take Leslie hostage?!”
Rumiko almost chipped her tooth while grinding
her teeth resentfully as she glared at Harvey.
“I came up with the plan just now!”
Rumiko couldn‘t figure out why her plans were immediately found out. The stab on her stomach rendered
her completely unable to fight. She had no choice but to flee.
Harvey calmly smiled after seeing the disgruntled look on her face.
“Don‘t you know how to use your brain before going with the plan? Do you have any idea who Governor
Clarke is? Since he already joined forces with me, do you think he doesn‘t know that his own daughter

will turn into his biggest weakness? Without sending the family‘s best people protecting her, do you think
he can even sleep at night?”
Harvey calmly pointed out Toby‘s arrangements, making Leslie look up to him a little more. Even her own
father was used by
him. No wonder Vince had constantly suffered losses against him.
“Even if that‘s the case, how did you even find out that there was something wrong? How did you show
up right at the nick of time?”
Rumiko was resentful. She couldn‘t figure out how Harvey came back in such a timely manner.
“Do you Islanders not think at all?”
Harvey sighed.
“Clearly, someone‘s trying to frame me for Naoto‘s death. There was nothing stopping me when I came
all the way here. That‘s not normal now, is it? That‘s why I was almost sure that someone was waiting for
me here.”
