Chapter 248
Harvey’s face darkened instantly, and he said, “Christina, I’ll give you one more chance to reconsider your answer.”
He stared at the Stevens family group and threatened, “If I’m unsatisfied with it, the Stevens family will have no reason to exist, so think carefully.”
“Harvey, no matter how much you threaten me, I will never agree to marry you,” Christina replied, her fear replaced with defiance.
Harvey exploded with rage. “Are you really not afraid to see the Stevens family destroyed by my hand?”
Christina shot back angrily, “If you’re using your position as the Weller family head to bully and destroy us, I’ll fight you to my very last breath!”
“Well said, Ms. Stevens! You’ve got spirit–you have my support!” Finley laugh
Many others nodded in approval, impressed by the Stevens Corporation’s Ice Queen’s courage in refusing to bow to Harvey’s intimidation.
Bolstered by the support, the Stevens family members straightened their backs.
Leroy pointed at Harvey and declared, “Harvey, I know exactly what kind of person you are. You may be the Weller family head now, but deep down, you’re still just a pathetic, foolish little man.‘
Irene chimed in and mocked, “Harvey, you’re still the worthless little man as before. You just got lucky to become the family head. If you think you can use that to force Christie’s hand, think again!”
Harvey’s eyes flashed viciously. The Stevens family was asking for death.
“Christina, you clearly won’t listen until it’s too late. Fine, I’ll make an example of the Stevens family today and show everyone what happens when they dare to defy me.”
Christina stepped back and turned to the two masters from The Bridgefields‘ Stevens family. Respected elders, we’ll need your help now.”
The two masters, one stout and one lean, stood silently in their gray robes, having remained mysteriously quiet throughout the entire confrontation.
The stout one merely nodded at Christina’s request, while his taller companion stepped forward and coldly addressed Harvey.
“Mr. Weller, are you seriously trying to force a marriage in broad daylight? You must think the Stevens family has no one capable of standing up to you.”
“Who are you?” Harvey frowned.

Both masters snorted disdainfully before announcing in unison, “We’re from the Stevens family in Bridgefields.”
“I am Bruce!”
“And I am Jackie!”
Their introduction caused quite a stir among the crowd.
“The Bridgefields Stevens family’s masters have come to Jayrodale!”
“Looks like Stevens family called in some serious backup. This should be interesting.”
“Bridgefields‘ Stevens family is just as prestigious. Harvey’s going to have a hard time bullying Christina now.”
Harvey’s expression darkened slightly. He cursed Christina for being a well–pla ed bitch and bringing in such powerful backup, but he could not back down now–not as the new family head in Jayrodale.
“Elders, I’ll leave this to you,” Harvey commanded his two family guards. “The Weller family will suffer no insults. Anyone who dares to challenge us will bleed!”
The two Weller family fighters remained expressionless, their eyes scanning the Stevens family fighters as if they were already dead men.
