Harvey knew exactly what kind of man Tony was, but there was a problem–he owed Tony millions and had no right to challenge East Side’s crime boss.
“Mrs. Stevens, don’t worry. I’ll handle this. How dare that old bastard touch Christie! He’ll regret it for sure!” Despite his fear, Harvey’s tone was full of bravado, acting as if Tony was beneath him.
“I knew it!” Irene’s tears turned into smiles. “With you stepping in, Harvey, even Tony will have to release her.”
“You can rest assured, Mrs. Stevens. Tony will have to respect the Weller family name, whether he likes it or not,” Harvey promised confidently.
After hanging up, Harvey’s expression was replaced with, his previous confidence completely gone. “Tony, Christina is my woman. Do you actually think you can get to her before I do? That’s not how this works!”

Harvey’s suppressed anger rose again. “But Mr. Madden Senior, I’ve already told you- Christina is my woman. You’ve taken her, and now you’re making me look like a fool!”
Tony sneered. “You’re drowning in debt, yet you’re parading around like you’re the king of Jayrodale’s elite. We both know you’re all show. Harvey, your reputation means nothing to me.
His words dripped with mockery and disdain, each one cutting deeper than the last.
Harvey’s face turned red with rage, and he clenched his teeth. “Mr. Madden Senior, are you seriously refusing to let her go?”
‘Hell no. I won’t rest until Andrew is dead,” Tony snapped. “And by the way, I’ve taken a look

The line went dead with a click, leaving Harvey’s hands trembling as he held the phone.
Christina was his woman, yet Tony had just told him to his face that they were going to have their way with her.
Harvey’s face twisted with rage and humiliation as he growled, “Tony, you asshole!”
