Harvey York's Rise to Power Chapter 148
“Dear, it seems like you don’t have to leave with this liar tonight. Since he doesn’t know the CEO of the York Enterprise, then he’s useless. Why don’t I bring you along tomorrow to meet my classmate—Yvonne? That may be much more productive.” Harvey York said to Mandy Zimmer. “Really? How nice!” Mandy appeared overjoyed. Yvonne Xavier was the secretary of the CEO of the York Enterprise. If they could get in touch with her, it would be certainly much easier to get to know any superiors there. Jake Surrey’s facial expression worsened slightly. But Cecilia Zachary was shaking her head slightly, indicating to him that he clearly had a Freudian slip. He would not be able to turn the situation around no matter what he wanted to say. At that time, the auction house soon became packed. In the end, there were around a thousand people. It could be said that the Mountain Top Auction was indeed quite popular.After a short while, the auction began. The first few lots were some classic wat

Cecilia Zachary’s facial expression changed. She did indeed have some interest in Jake. However, Jake Surrey was only interested in Mandy Zimmer, and he was not friendly to her. That had always caused her pain. If not, she would certainly throw herself at such a rich and handsome guy long ago. Why would she introduce him to Mandy then? “Harvey, you can’t even give your wife the things she wants. Could you please stop pretending. You’re very annoying!” Cecilia sneered, and her facial expression changed ceaselessly. “Harvey, Cecilia, please stop talking.” Seeing that scene, Mandy was put in a dilemma. Cecilia had always been disgusted with Harvey York. Harvey did not retort her before, so she would cease talking after condemning him for a short while. Until recently, Harvey was clearly different from before and Cecilia had suffered many times because of her argument with him. Sitting beside them, Jake smiled faintly, and as he was about to say something. All of a sudden. “9.
Harvey York's Rise to Power Chapter 150
Mandy Zimmer’s facial expression appeared slightly disgusted. At first, Jake could get so much money for her sake, and she was quite touched by that. But now she felt quite upset and annoyed inside since Jake Surrey always mocked Harvey York. Although Harvey was poor, and he was a live-in son-in-law no less, he had been doing all the house chores during those three years. He devoted himself to the hardships wholeheartedly. Although Mandy could not accept him at first, she now started to recognize the good in him. Besides, she would feel quite humiliated if her husband was being condemned like that in public no matter how bad her husband was. At that moment, Mandy frowned slightly and said, “Mr. Surrey, I hope that you can take back what you just said and apologize to Harvey.” “Do you want me to apologize to him?” Jake burst into laughter. “Actually, I just do it for your own good. Mandy, this guy is not an ambitious man, but he’s so arrogant in public. He may get into trouble
Harvey York's Rise to Power Chapter 151
Mandy Zimmer did not deny that, and she only nodded slightly. Harvey York stretched his hand out to put it on her small hand. He then smiled and said, “Then as your husband, I’ll present that to you as a gift!” Mandy was stunned for a short while, because she did not know how to respond to that. However, Rosalie Naiswell glanced at Harvey, and she could not help but sigh. ‘It’s fine if he’s not capable. But he’s so bad at pretending! That thing now belongs to the Yorks. How could anyone else retrieve that?’‘You’re just a live-in son-in-law. Do you even have the right?’ ***“Subsequently, we’ll have the sixth lot for auction. Regarding this lot, even our appraisers could not identify its authenticity. But we heard that the origin of this item was exceptional. Ladies and gentlemen, you’re welcome to come forward to assess it. Then, you can decide whether you want to bid for this lot…” At that moment, the female auctioneer’s eyes brightened. She noticed that the atmosphere w

“Certainly, this painting is not much different from the authentic one. I feel that it’s some kind of highly exceptional replica which was done by someone in the later generations. Besides, it’s quite possible that it’s produced in our time. Moreover, it might even be some kind of product which is sold online. It might not even be worth fifteen dollars…” Wyatt Johnson said word by word. At the same time, he looked at the auctioneer and said, “Young lady, I’m not trying to ruin the credibility of the auction house here. I’m merely speaking the truth. I hope you don’t mind it.” That auctioneer smiled and said, “Our appraisers don’t dare to confirm its authenticity too. It turns out that the authentic painting had been divided into two long ago. Previously, I thought that it was just a well replicated painting, so the appraisers did not dare to affirm its authenticity. It turns out that we don’t need to assess its quality, and we can directly affirm that it’s not the authentic one.”
Harvey York's Rise to Power Chapter 153
Harvey York did not talk nonsense. He only tried to fish for the money in his pocket. After a long while only he found the fifteen dollars. He then gave the money to the auctioneer, seemingly hard to part with the money. He could not help that. After all, he did indeed have only fifteen dollars cash with him at the moment. A roar of laughter was heard. “It’s indeed hilarious! There’s really someone who bought “The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak” with only fifteen dollars!” “You hid the money in such a secure manner. Are you afraid that you’ll lose the money?” “No wonder you’re afraid that you’ll lose the money. It seems like you only have fifteen dollars with you now, are you not?” “Harvey, you really need to take good care of this painting. We’ll go and pay you a visit when we’re free just to assess it. After all, it’s a legendary renowned world painting which is worth fifteen dollars!” The person then laughed out loud. Both Jake Surrey and Wyatt Johnson burst into laugh

As Jake Surrey was saying that, it appeared like his cunning plot was somehow successful. As long as Harvey York was being humiliated, he would definitely take the chance. Harvey smiled and said slowly, “Ladies and gentlemen, I’m sure you know that Albert Bierstadt was one of the famous landscape painters best known for his lavish, sweeping landscapes of the mountains. The watercolor paintings he did were always exceptional, simple but profound. Besides, his style was based on the carefully detailed painting with romantic and glowing lighting. That was the legendary luminous technique. It made his paintings magnificent, elegant and boundless… Please do take a look here. Isn’t this painting exactly like how I described it?The others heard how reasonable and logical Harvey sounded. At that moment, they took a few glances of the painting subconsciously. They did realize that the painting was exactly like how Harvey described it. Wyatt Johnson was the only one who laughed coldly. ‘

“Plum Authenticity Twist” was a unique skill of a renowned appraising master in the 1900s. It was rumored that as long as the master took some actions upon himself, the master could literally identify the authenticity of any antiques and famous paintings. Nowadays, there were only a few people who knew of that technique. The reason Rosalie Naiwell knew that was because of the fact that her grandfather from her family knew of that technique too. However, Senior Naiswell had promised the person who taught him that technique something. He promised not to pass that technique to anybody else. Hence, he was the only one who mastered that in the Naiswells. Now the “Plum Authenticity Twist” was being wielded by a live-in son-in-law. Rosalie felt that it was too preposterous, and it felt like a dream. “What? Plum Authenticity Twist?” A lot of people present heard what Rosalie said. They were slightly stupefied. Did it mean that the live-in son-in-law was not messing around, but he ha

In that instant, all the elites from Origin Fist could only gasp. They didn't know how to react when they saw what happened. Normally, once Harvey gave Kuro the chance to turn the table around, Kuro should have the advantage.But the result?Kuro was being stepped on, and he didn't even have the power to resist. Before Harvey's strength, he was just too weak."Not only can't you fight, but you're also making me very disappointed," Harvey said as he squatted and patted Kuro's face. It was a simple action, but it was enough to humiliate Kuro completely."Stop wasting time here, kid. I acknowledge that I've been careless, and I acknowledge that I'm not as skilled as you. I surrender!" The expression on Kuro's face was one of stubbornness. "If you can, kill me! I'm telling you, even if I die, the Origin Fist will never let you go! No matter who you are, you'll die in the hands of Origin Fist! If I die, your whole family will die with you!""How naïve," Harvey said with a smile. In t

"Your level of power is insufficient as well. Your so-called Black Hands is somewhat interesting, but you can't even unleash half of its power. Which means that the Sky Plane's martial arts aren't good, and so are you," Harvey said as he kept on slapping Kuro.Kuro couldn't even move away from getting slapped. His face was full of blood, and its contour had completely changed. All the Origin Fist elites could only watch this in shock.Kuro was the cream of the crop of Origin Fist. Not only was he a True Warrior, but he had even mastered the Black Hands. Why couldn't he escape the weak slaps from Harvey? How could Kuro not defeat Harvey, especially in a place like Grand City?This was the same as the Origin Fist's dignity being completely soiled!But another question appeared. Were the weak-looking slaps really that powerful?"You fool! How dare you slap me!" Kuro snarled, fury and doubt on his face. He was shocked at Harvey's power. He didn't think Harvey could slap him that e

"You fool!" Kuro was completely infuriated.He immediately appeared in mid-air in front of Harvey, his palms striking down. The black miasma surrounding his hands turned into gigantic palms, carrying a powerful aura. They seemed to be expanding without limits. At that instant, they seemed to be covering the entire sky.Everyone gasped.What was going on? Was this the legendary Black Hands?They couldn't believe it! Then they saw how Harvey seemed like he was stunned by the terrifying Black Hands. He simply stood there, unmoved, as if he was frozen.Alexei's expression changed. He wanted to call out to Harvey, but he noticed that he couldn't say anything as his throat had gone dry. He couldn't even move.He wasn't the only one. Even the bodyguards from the Foster family were all full of despair. They never expected the elites from Sky Plane could be so strong—it shook them to the core. Even among the seven families from Grand City, only the few most talented people would hav

Harvey frowned and looked at Alexei. "Alexei, do all the people from Sky Plane have some emotional issues? Why are they all so self-centered?""Well…" Alexei was speechless. 'Bro… Big bro…' While Harvey had the strength to ignore the people from Sky Plane, Alexei didn't! Not only did he want to live, but he wanted to live a good life too!When Kuro heard Harvey's words, he smiled coldly. "You have quite the confidence, Mr. Representative. You probably don't understand what the words True Warriors meant. Today, allow me to help you understand just how terrifying the True Warriors from Sky Plane are!"As Kuro said that, he extended his right hand. A black miasma appeared around his fingers. Very quickly, it began to surround both his palms, looking extremely eerie.Mikan instinctively asked, "You're going to use the Origin Fist's ultimate attack, the Black Hands?"The so-called Black Hands was the ultimate technique of the Origin Fist. It was said that every use of it will make

To someone like Mikan, who thought of herself as someone at the top of the social hierarchy, what happened to her was humiliating and infuriated her deeply.She gritted her teeth and stared at Harvey. After a long while, she yelled, "Shameless… You shameless man! How dare you ambush me?!"Slap!Harvey sent Mikan flying again with another slap. This time, she slammed right into a giant stone pillar in the courtyard, and was instantly in a wounded state."Ambush? Do I even need to ambush rubbish like you?" Harvey's expression was full of disdain. "Who do you think you are? What makes you think you're worth ambushing?"Harvey fired a few more slaps at Mikan. There was no way for her to escape, and her entire face was now full of dirt. In the end, she was thrown out of the entrance. She rolled on the ground, and Harvey even kicked her on the buttocks.When all the spectators saw what had happened, their eyes grew wide, their faces filled with disbelief. They never expected that thing

Sky Plane and Grand City were similar. Their status in the Island Nation was also very high. Some of the Islanders even treat the Sky Plane as where the gods resided and would worship them.Since the ruling Royal Family and the Six Schools couldn't limit the Sky Plane, it made everyone who came from the Sky Plane incredibly arrogant. They believed they were the best of all. They believed that as long as they announced they were from the Sky Plane, no one could do anything to them.Mikan's attitude made everyone hold their breaths in anticipation. Some of those who still had compassion within them shook their heads.While it was nothing to them if they offended ordinary Islanders, members of the Six Schools and even those from the ruling Royal Family, crossing Sky Plane was a death wish.No one other than the direct descendent of the Grand City could attract Sky Plane's wrath.Just when all of them thought that Harvey was going to surrender, Harvey simply smirked and said, "As expe

"Since you're all coming for me, then there's no need to hide your intentions. Why don't you just directly tell me what your aim is?" Harvey said coldly. The attack on him smelled like a plot. However, the Islanders were making this too obvious… Only fools couldn't see through it."I'm Mikan Inoue, and this is my older brother Kuro Inoue. We are practitioners of the Origin Fists from Sky Plane," the Islander woman said with a commanding tone as she played with her martial arts robe, showing the size of her chest."When we're at the Sky Plane, we heard that the representative of Country H's Martial Arts had completely demolished all the Six Schools of the Island Nation. While they were simply servants of the Sky Plane, you still have to consider who their masters are. If you dare to hit our servants, then it's only natural for you to pay the price, correct?"Kuro Inoue also said with a smile, "Kneel and beg us to spare you. Then, we won't make a move. But the condition is that you

When Harvey saw what happened, his eyes became even colder. Even Alexei, someone who didn't know much about Harvey, could sense the murderous aura coming from him. He shuddered. Then, he mustered the courage he needed to yell, "Hey! You islanders! How dare you throw Dragon Gate into chaos! Do you have a death wish?!"When the elites from the Island Nation walked out of the inner courtyard and heard that, they hurled the injured trainers on the ground. Then, all of them tilted their heads as they looked at Harvey with a sneer.The leader among the Islanders' elites stepped forward and said in a nonchalant tone, "You're the Dragon Gate's scion as well as the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance? You're only here after waiting for you for so long… Don't tell me you're scared?" He spoke the language of Country H very well, but if one were to listen, it was clear that his fluency was still quite lacking. A woman was walking next to him, playing with the sleeve of he
Harvey York's Rise to Power Chapter 6952
Alexei's eyes narrowed when he saw the man in the Island Nation's martial arts robe. "Big bro, are you really the scion of Dragon Gate? If you are, then this is going to be troublesome. The man who's challenging the training hall is one of the representatives the Island Nation's Sky Plane sent here. He's supposed to be an elite trained in the Origin Fist."Harvey's curiosity was piqued. "Origin Fist?"Alexei nodded. "You probably don't know this. While the so-called Six Schools sound great in the Island Nation, when it comes to the Origin martial arts from the Sky Plane, they are nothing! Even if we don't talk about the rest and just the Origin Fist, everyone who's trained in it is legendary. It's said that they can split mountains with their bare fists alone, and it's even more powerful than our country's Eagle Claw technique!"Alexei's expression was one of fear as he pointed at the wounds on all those trainers. If one were to look closely, all ad signs of being clawed upon. T
