"How dare you, Harvey York?!"
Arlet Pagan’s expression changed.
"What? So you're calling me a con man, yet you're scared of making a little bet?" replied Harvey.
"Either way, this is a win-win situation for you, right? "You can make a joke out of me and prove that you're correct
if you win.
"All you need to do is to be my maid for three whole years if you lose in exchange for your grandfather's life."
Naturally, Harvey was prepared to humble Arlet a bit.
After all, he felt a little annoyed for being called a con man constantly.
Arlet gritted her teeth after seeing Harvey's stern look on his face.

"Good! Harvey wasted no time after confirming the bet.He stepped forward.Under everyone's shocked gaze, he
ripped the bead off of Wes Pagan’s chest.Then, he smiled faintly in front of Arlet.
"Get ready to call me ‘Master’!"
Harvey took a few steps backward before clenching his fist.
The bead snapped in half after a loud crack was heard.
At the same time, a puff of black smoke visible to the naked eye flew out before charging right toward Wes.
Harvey quickly bit his finger before flinging out a drop of blood.
Psssh! The smoke immediately dissipated into nothingness like oil on a frying pan.
A foul stench lingered soon after.
"My God! Why is that in the bead?!"
"Is that really the source of the evil energy?"
The dozen people felt utter disbelief as they were gossiping up a storm.
Tap! Harvey quickly squeezed another drop of blood before tapping it between Wes’ eyebrows.
The evil energy could be seen dissipating at a rapid pace.
"That's it.Harvey clapped his hands.
"Everything's done now.
"Mr.Pagan, remember to keep the blood on your head for the next twenty-four hours.
"You'll be back to normal after that."
After hearing Harvey's words, Arlet felt extremely awkward and exhilarated at the same time.

"How do you feel now, Uncle?"
Wes looked as if he was still dreaming.He shook his head with a slightly fearful expression before feeling ecstatic.
"It's not heavy anymore! It doesn't feel like a piece of metal clanging in my head anymore! "I feel relaxed! "I feel
like sleeping too..."
Wes showed a calm expression.
Previously, he would be scared witless when he talked about sleep.He would try his best to stay awake...
But when he felt this comfortable after so long, he decided that this was the first thing he wanted to do.
"What's going on here, Harvey?"
Rodney felt utterly surprised.
"The bead is an ancient relic! There are only a few copies of it in the whole world! "Why would there be evil energy
in it in the first place?"
Wes also looked over with an odd expression.
He never thought the bead itself would be the source of evil energy.
