“What? We, the Yates family, are so hot at the moment. And still, some people resigned from the company under the Yates family?”Grandma Yates and others could not believe it.Did those people not understand how strong the Yates family would be next?Why did they resign right this time?They were certainly not showing respect to the Yates family!Most importantly, those who resigned were the core personnel of Silver Nimbus Enterprise.Once they left, the entire Silver Nimbus Enterprise would be in a state of suspension.Just when Grandma Yates was frowning…Suddenly, Ben Yates’ mobile phone rang again.“What? A few senior executives have resigned? Even you, the personnel executive, also want to resign? Making this call is only to show me some respect?”Ben was shocked.Just when he hung up the phone, the phone rang again.“What? The construction team of Silver Nimbus Mountain Resort announces the withdrawal of cooperation with us?“The workers left directly?“What? Even t
Soon, the people from the Yates family went out together and finally managed to find out what happened.“It turns out that Mandy Zimmer has blindly invested a lot of money to speed up the progress of the Silver Nimbus Mountain Resort project!”“Now that there is no money in the company account. Those executives resigned because they didn’t get their salaries this month!”“The construction team didn’t get the monthly payment. So naturally, they stopped working too!”“Also, rumors outside are spreading that Silver Nimbus Enterprise is in debt. So, those who bought the villas come and forcefully request to check-out!”“As for the bet-on agreement, it truly exists. Mandy signed it with Sky Corporation in the name of the company. It is said that this is a condition for her to become the CEO!”“In short, it’s all because of Mandy!”“This little b*tch actually threw a low ball to the Yates family!”“We even thought that we got a bargain!”After clarifying the things, all the Yates fa
Finally, the small and medium shareholders agreed to give the Yates family a few days to raise funds after the family had run their mouths dry.As a result, the Yates family needed to pay a hefty amount of liquidated damage since they were only given a few days' time. The total amount that they needed to pay was seven million and eight hundred thousand dollars.Although the Yates family was numb in the head at that moment, they agreed to the price to solve the crisis in front of their eyes.When the small and medium shareholders had left, the Yates family was dead silent.Everyone had cold sweat dripping down their faces. Their expressions were utterly horrible.Right when they all thought that all of it was over, a dozen pickup trucks suddenly stopped outside.Soon after, a bunch of roguishly looking gangsters immediately rushed inside.They were the suppliers of the building material all along.The gangsters only came because there was a payment overdue for a few days already
“Apologize! And then repay the debt!” Leyton Luv said while gritting his teeth.How would Finn Yates even be willing?He was the third-in-command of the Buckwood Police Station, after all. It would be too embarrassing for him to bow and apologize to those lowly suppliers.At this moment, Grandma Yates walked forward with an ugly scowl on her face.“Finn, there’ll be big trouble if you won’t solve the small ones. Go and apologize right now!“Ben, take out everything from our accounts and pay off the debts immediately!”Finn and Ben Yates were not willing at all.But Grandma Yates’ expression at that moment was as cold as ice. They had no choice but to do it.Finally, Finn gritted on his teeth and bowed to apologize to the suppliers.Ben, on the other hand, went and took out thousands of dollars from the Yates family’s bank account. They even had to mortgage a few of their cars to acquire a million and five hundred thousand dollars to pay off the supplies.All the suppliers had
“What? Every one of you seemed more energetic than the last when you got the money and benefits from the family!“Now that the Yates family is in a crisis, all of you just turn into mutes?”Grandma Yates furiously slammed her cane on the ground while trembling with anger.Everyone’s heads were hanging even lower. None of them could open their mouths and answer her.Because they never expected this affair to happen!“Now speak! What do we do about this? How do we clean up this mess?” Grandma Yates continued to exclaim furiously.“Grandmother, I think that we’ve been deceived by that bastard, Mandy Zimmer!”“Just think about it. We were the ones to point out that Mandy needed to give us all of her shares if she wanted Harvey York to stay alive!”“But the shares are worth three hundred million dollars! What kind of man is worth that money?”“And she just gave it to us like that!”“I think that she did it intentionally. She knew full well that Silver Nimbus Enterprise is a huge m
The Yates family was devising a strategy to get Mandy Zimmer back and fix the mess.Mandy was researching which industry to sink her hands into and reestablish another company.Harvey York had been encouraging her after all, telling her that Buckwood’s market would be massive and that there would be many opportunities.Besides, Mandy had always been a stubborn woman. She would always get back up from where she fell.With Harvey’s support, it reinforced her thought to start another business.She was at the Gardens Residence researching for plans, preparing to look for an angel investor.At that moment, Grandma Yates actually called her.“Mandy, you little bastard!“The Yates family has never done anything wrong to you, have we?!“How dare you plot against the family from the beginning?!“You deserve to die!“I hate it! When Lilian that bastard had you, I should’ve just made her abort you!“If that were the case, the family won’t end up like this!”Grandma Yates was scolding
Grandma Yates uttered her words full of virtue at that moment.She was playing both God and the Devil!Naturally, she knew of Mandy Zimmer’s personality.And that was her soft heart and her strong sense of family.The Yates family could leave everything behind for money and other gains.But Mandy might not do so.The point was already apparent when she could not bear to divorce Harvey York.If it were Phoebe Yates, a husband like this would be kicked to the ground by her.“Oh, Mandy. This is the last chance I’m able to give you. We can talk things out if you’re willing to come back!“If you don’t think of yourself, at least, think of your mother!“I’m her mother!”Grandma Yates was extremely gracious as if she were another person.The true meaning of reward after punishment.The words did slightly move Mandy’s heart.But in reality, she did not care much for Silver Nimbus Enterprise right now.But she hoped to keep the ties with the Yates family.It was because she over
Mandy Zimmer gritted her teeth lightly and sighed after a moment, not uttering a single word.She was only nice, not stupid. How could she not understand what the Yates family meant?But she could not pass the nagging feeling in her heart.Now that Harvey York brought the matter out into the open, the burden in her heart had been lifted.“Darling, thank you. I understand that they only treat me like a tool. I won’t listen to them again.“The Yates family can just die on their own.”Even though Mandy said that, her heart still slightly ached for the family.But Harvey was prepared not to give the Yates family another chance.He sent Xynthia Zimmer to survey for universities as an excuse to send Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates out of Buckwood to wander around Mordu and Wolsing for the time being.Under those circumstances, the Yates family had no way of contacting Simon and Lilian.***At the Yates family household.Everyone was desperately trying to call Mandy’s family but to
Linus almost wanted to slap the secretary out of fury. "I'm warning you! This is something we have to deal with ourselves. If we can, Emery will ally with us and help us deal with the small problems that we might encounter. But if we can't… Let me tell you what'll happen. Emery will kick us when we're down and will never offer us a helping hand!"Linus's expression became even darker after he said that. Those who were able to become one of the highest ranking members of the family, it didn't matter how arrogant they were or how materialistic they were, their basic judgment wouldn't stray too far away from being accurate. He was already able to guess Emery's personality. It was said that there was no love within a royal family. It was the same for wealthy families.The beautiful secretary nodded and whispered, "But Mr. Linus, our biggest problem is we're running out of resources. Without powerful locals from the country to help us right now, we're nothing when we're facing Yvonne
Wolsing Grand Hospital. Midnight.Linus was covered in bandages, looking in extremely bad shape. While he had plenty of bodyguards, the Islanders refused to stop no matter what. After the clash, they had beaten him up thoroughly. While there was no permanent injury, he was still covered in bruises.He used his right hand to pick up a cigar as he cursed, "Bastard! All these traitorous Islanders… They took my money… Not only did they do nothing, but they even attacked me! I will kill them after this!"He gritted his teeth. "And that witch Yvonne! She better not think this is over! One day, I'll find a way to kill all of you! Not only you, I will kill your whole family and that man of yours too!"At this time, Linus was no different from a woman scorned. All that was left for him to do was to take out his little book of grudges and start recording. As for how Yvonne managed to retaliate… Though Linus was furious with her, he was also terrified of her.The plot he had so meticulousl
Everything was over. Whether it was the Xaviers, the Islanders, or someone else, they couldn't do anything about this case anymore. With this video, no one could undo anything.On the second floor, Journi looked at what happened with shock. Only after a long time did she whisper, "All we needed to spend is 5,000?""I guess," Harvey said with a shrug. "But I needed to prepare some money beforehand. My subordinates found out that Linus bribed Nomura and the Islanders 100 thousand per head. Nomura and his ilk are greedy, so they agreed to it. I told my subordinates to leak the news that after the negotiation, Linus could gain a lot more benefits."The Islanders naturally wouldn't accept the fact that they'll only be able to gain a little profit, so our men approached them again and pretended to be part of Linus' men. They agreed to hike the price. I even transferred the money to them, so the Islanders had to give today's performance their all. If they had to go as far as to commit suic
"All of us were ready to commit suicide for the 50 million A dollars!""We even sold out our country, meaning we could never return to the Island Nations!""You either give us all the money back, or we'll never stop hounding you for it!" All the Islanders were extremely furious.In truth, the Islanders who were paragons of unity and love were ordinary people in the end and could be swayed by profit. Without the money, they wouldn't have given such a performance.Linus couldn't help but shudder when he saw all the Islanders looking at him with murderous intent, as if a pack of wolves were glaring at him, with the intent to kill. "Stop making such wild accusations!" he cried. "While I really did pay to tell you to work, all I did was give you 10,000 dollars! And that's not A dollars, but H dollars. As for paying all of you 50 million dollars per person… Do you think I'm stupid? Do you think I'm willing to pay so much just so you'll frame Yvonne? Why don't you consider if you're w
The phones of all the Islanders who were willing to commit suicide started to vibrate. All the Islanders who were in their righteous fury took out their phones. When they saw the content on the screen, they roared—they were so angry that they almost went mad.They instantly got up from the ground, their eyes bloodshot. All of them glared at Linus, as if wanting to tear him apart. The reporters and spectators were a little shocked, and instinctively took a few steps back. It was obvious that they felt a murderous intent.Before anyone could react, Nomura waved his hand. All the Islanders surrounded Linus and his men. Linus frowned slightly. "What do you all want?""Fools!" Nomura immediately aimed his longsword at Linus. "Don't you people from Country A call yourself a civilized world? That obeying the contract is important to you? Why did you suddenly break the contract when we've done everything you asked us to do?"The other Islanders all looked at Linus with a murderous expres
Linus wore a victor's smile. The reason he looked for Tojo Nomura earlier was to accuse Yvonne and the Xavier family on the spot, to make sure they would be accused of being traitors.He didn't expect a little money to be enough to make them act. Good, good. All he could say was that no matter how powerful or barbaric the Islanders were, they were nothing before the great people of country A. Not to mention, he had already given them their rewards. Even if he didn't, the Islanders still had to act as he ordered.Yvonne frowned. Of course, she knew that nothing the Islanders said was true—merely defamation. The problem was that she couldn't understand why someone like Nomura, who was a disciple of Shinto Way, had to make up such lies.The moment that thought crossed her mind, Yvonne looked coldly at Linus and said, "Just how much did you give them to the point they're willing to sell their country?""Tsk! You think that's enough to scare me?" Linus smiled wryly. "Everybody knows h
Very quickly, many Islanders ran to the stage. All of them were wearing the Islanders' traditional summer garb. The way they stood and the way they lifted their beard made them easily identifiable as Islanders.According to how unified Islanders were, everything they said would most likely be true.When Linus saw what was happening, sat down and folded his legs. His sexy secretary helped him light up a cigar. He took a deep breath, then looked at the unfolding scene with interest.Very quickly, the Islander leading the men took a step forward and said angrily, "Everyone! I'm Shinto Way's disciple, Tojo Nomura. I'm also the leader of the disciples still in Country H. "A few days ago, the Xaviers of Wolsing requested a marriage with our Young Master, Shingen. They have also signed a lot of contracts with us. Some of them include how Shinto Way will transfer the shares of our assets in Country H to them, while they will have to transfer ownership of their business on the Island Natio
When Yvonne saw Linus pulling out things they shouldn't and even giving them to the reporters, she instantly realized that he cared little about the consequences anymore.What he did was to ensure the Xaviers were blamed for everything. Even if he gained nothing from it, he still wanted to do it just so the Xaviers would have a hard time in Country H. He even wanted to use this to make both Country H and the Island Nation to force them to publicly deal with Shingen's death.Harvey, who caused all of this, would be in a lot of trouble. Yvonne looked at Linus coldly. "Linus, you know that taking things out of context and making up stories won't be beneficial to you. Where's your conscience?""Conscience? What's that?" Linus said with an exaggerated expression. "I'm not the one who killed Shingen. It's you Xaviers of Wolsing and the prospective son-in-law you wanted. Are you afraid others will find out? I'm just someone who knew the truth with a righteous heart!"I can't bear to see
The faces of Yvonne and the others from the Xaviers all shifted a little. It was obvious they didn't expect an Islander to appear. Meanwhile, Harvey simply looked at all of this coldly.Journi, who was a little bit surprised, turned to Harvey subconsciously. "What's going on?""We're simply giving the full package. The most difficult part of all of this was to explain why the Islanders would give up. Rather than waiting for others to expose the truth, why don't we give everyone the truth?" Harvey said calmly."What do you mean?" Journi said with a frown. "Simple. While these people are Islanders, they'll work for money. In this situation, the words of an Islander are more effective than the words of a hundred people from Country H…"Journi was curious about what Harvey wanted to do, but then some of the reporters realized what was happening. "Are these allegations from the Islanders true? Did you really assassinate Mr. Shingen Tokugawa, who wanted to improve the relationship
