Chapter 14

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Everyone looked over there. They then saw Don wearing a delicate suit with his hair nicely combed to the back. He looked handsome and smart. He was holding a gift box in his hand and walked in with a smile.

“Let us welcome Mr. Xander with warm applause!” A young man shouted.

All kinds of cheering were heard all of a sudden.

It was obvious that a young talented man like Don was more recognized and welcomed by the Zimmer family compared to Harvey.

Most importantly, he could help the Zimmer family!

At this moment, the entire Zimmer family was looking at Don as if he was the God of Wealth!

Don smiled and waved to the people around him. He looked like a star walking on the red carpet and also looked like a high-flyer.

“Senior Zimmer, I’m sorry to bother you. I come here uninvited. However, I am a straight-up guy. So, I’ll speak up if I have something to say!”

Don was smiling ambitiously. He said loudly, “I fell in love with Mandy at first sight, but unfortunately, she was married to a loser!”

“I have regarded this marriage as a joke for three years. But how much pain has Mandy suffered? I love Mandy. I don’t want to see her endure such pain. Hence, I am here today just to say this out in front of the entire Zimmer family…”

Don took a deep breath. “I want to marry Mandy. I want to make her happy!”

He shook the entire room. ‘Don Xander is too straightforward. He did not give any face to Harvey! Harvey is also here now.’

‘However, think about it carefully, Harvey, the live-in son-in-law is just a loser. Why should Don save face for him? He’s not afraid to offend him.’

Harvey would be so pissed off now. He had such bad luck!

“I have been thinking about Mandy over the past few years!” Don continued. “I can sacrifice everything for her. I have brought over the gains of my hard work over the years today…”

Don slowly opened the gift box while talking. There was a check lying in it and the number written on it was shocking.

“This is a cash check of ten million dollars. As long as Mandy is willing to marry me, then this will be my betrothal gift!” Don said loudly, “Even my property which is worth tens of millions of dollars can be put under Mandy’s name.”

“What?!”

Everyone gasped and their faces turned pale.

The people of the Zimmer family took the check and handed it to Senior Zimmer. Everyone’s eyes lit up at this moment.

Ten million dollars was certainly not a big deal for the Zimmer family. Although the Zimmer family was a second-class family in Niumhi, its assets were more than a billion dollars.

However, Don was able to take out a total of ten million in cash! For any major family, most of the family’s capital was fixed assets. They often lack liquidity or either the liquidity was low.

Taking the Zimmer family as an example, it was good to have tens of millions of cash in the book.

If the Zimmer family could get the cash from Don, they could take the business to the next level.

Meanwhile, everyone’s gaze fell on Mandy. Some women hoped that they were the ones being proposed now.

“It’s so romantic! Ten million dowry!”

“Money is one thing. But the most important thing is to have the heart…”

“Yes, this kind of love is so enviable. Why could no one treat me like this?!”

Many people were talking about it. Guys were jealous; girls envious.

Especially for some women, they were crazy about Don.

Lilian and Xynthia were looking at Don with satisfaction. After all, he was a talented and handsome man. He was a thousand times better than Harvey.

Don continued. “Mandy, did you receive the Prague roses with the Heart of Prague in it yesterday afternoon? That is a gift from me!”

Don was full of pride when it came to this.

His spy in Mandy’s company informed him about it yesterday afternoon.

He just pretended to be the sender after he had confirmed that the person who gave the gift did not disclose his identity. Everyone would believe what he said anyway.

“What? The Heart of Prague?!”

“The legendary Heart of Prague?! Is it the one that Mandy is wearing now? It is said that there’s only one in the world. It is very valuable, but not for sale. It can’t be bought with money! Mr. Xander, you are so incredible…”

“This, this, this…”

Many women were in awe when their gaze fell on Mandy.

The Heart of Prague, the legendary jewel! It was jointly designed by many well-known art masters. It was known as the treasure of Prague. They never thought it would appear here today.

Harvey suddenly stood up. This time, he got angry.

Don was too shameless! He was the one who gifted the Heart of Prague to his wife. How dare he falsely claim that it was his gift?

What was even more annoying was that everyone believed him!

    Mandy who initially felt strange on the inside felt the warmth in her heart at this moment. An unexplained feeling surged in her heart.She already had a feeling that the roses were sent by Don yesterday. Since Don had admitted to it now, she was indeed right about it.She never thought that Don would do what he said. He had just talked about the Prague roses yesterday morning. Then, the roses were sent to her in the afternoon and with the Heart of Prague in it some more.This thing could not be found easily. Thus, he must have planned this for her a long time ago, right?Although Mandy knew that she could not agree to this marriage because she was a married woman, she was still very moved and shy.“Hey, did you guys see it? Harvey’s expression is so funny! He’s shocked! Hahaha!”Meanwhile, Zack stood up, pointed in the direction where Harvey was, and laughed.Many people saw Harvey’s expression and heckled him after hearing Zack’s words.Indeed, Harvey’s face was very dark at

    The entire Zimmer Villa was in silence at that moment. Almost everyone turned to look at Harvey in disbelief. That live-in son-in-law said everything in certainty. Could it be that he indeed knew who the new CEO who invested in York Enterprise was? Don did not even believe him. He smiled coldly and said, “Fine! Tell us! Who’s the new CEO in my enterprise?” Harvey stretched his hand out and pointed it at himself. He then said slowly, “The new CEO of York Enterprise is me.” Everyone was so shocked that they said nothing for a moment.But the next second...“You?” Don was stunned at first. He then held his belly and broke into a burst of laughter. Finally, he stopped laughing with much difficulty. He then looked at Senior Zimmer. “Senior Zimmer, I thought that your live-in son-in-law just likes to put on a show. But it surprised me to see him acting like a fool.” The moment he said that, Zack and the others broke into laughter too. They looked at Harvey just like they were l

    They were stunned and soon broke into a burst of laughter.Don sneered and laughed too. “Harvey, is this your evidence? Don’t you think it’s hilarious?”“Mr. Xander, why are you wasting your time talking to a fool? I don’t even believe anything he said!” At that moment, Zack could not endure it anymore. He stepped forward and snatched away Harvey’s old phone, and smashed it onto the floor. He then pointed at Harvey and scolded him, “You’re just a live-in son-in-law! Why are you always putting on a show? You even claimed that you’d got evidence! F*ck you!” “Get lost this instant! We’re disgusted by your very existence!”“How could we have such a person like you in our family…” “A good-for-nothing!” Everybody from the Zimmers took the initiative at that moment just because they felt that they had been humiliated deeply by Harvey. They certainly knew that Harvey couldn’t be the new CEO in York Enterprise, but they felt like Harvey was underestimating them in that instant.“

    Hearing what Don said, Senior Zimmer’s heart skipped a beat. ‘That’s right. If I let Harvey be with us still, the entire Zimmers would certainly be ruined by him.’“Senior Zimmer, it’s your party here tonight. It might be unfortunate if you took the initiative to beat him up. Let me help you give this insensible good-for-nothing a lesson!” Seeing that Don was about to beat Harvey up, Senior Zimmer had no intention to stop him.Besides, the others from the Zimmers were enjoying the scene too. They had long been disgusted by Harvey and were eager to see Don beating him up. Don smiled wickedly. He ran up a few steps, and he was about to swing a flying kick at Harvey’s face. He had gone to the gym to train himself up for a few years now. He even learned Taekwondo for a few years from a so-called private coach and gained a black belt. At that moment, his kick appeared quite ferocious and strong. “I remembered that Mr. Xander is an expert in Taekwondo with a black belt. It’s over

    ‘What?’Everyone was dumbfounded. ‘What’s happening?’ ‘That useless person just lifted his right hand slightly. Why did Don endure such a terrible fall?’‘Does that b*stard have such a skill?’ ‘Or is it true that every dog has its day?’ But most of them felt that Harvey was having some dumb luck, and Don was indeed unfortunate. Harvey just lifted his hand like that, and Don was thrown off terribly.“Harvey… just you wait and see…” Don was lying on the ground, shivering. He tried his best to get up. In that instant, he pointed at Harvey and scolded him vigorously, “I’ll ruin you! I’ll make you pay for it. Just you wait and see…” At that moment, everyone was fixing their eyes at Don, whose nose was bleeding. Then they turned to throw pitiful glances at Harvey. What kind of resources did that live-in son-in-law have? But Don was different. He was a middle-ranking employee in York Enterprise. If he had such an intention, it would certainly be relatively easy for him to ruin

    At the mention of Tyson Woods, everybody in the Zimmers drew in a cold breath. Who was Tyson? He was a famous person in Niumhi. A lot of people wanted to curry favor with him, but they were unable to do so. That future son-in-law—Don, was able to ask him to come over. Don was indeed quite an influential and powerful man.Even Senior Zimmer looked at Don approvingly. He was somewhat satisfied with that grandson-in-law. “You don’t want me to survive until tomorrow. Very well.” Harvey smiled. “I’m indeed curious. You’re about to lose everything, and you’re a useless person who will face bankruptcy soon. I wonder how you’re going to do that…” Someone burst into laughter. “Is he out of his mind? Mr. Xander is a rich youth. His one-million-cheque is still here. How could he say that Mr. Xander is going to lose everything and face bankruptcy? Does he even know what bankruptcy is?” “Oh! This live-in son-in-law always stays at home and is either watching TV or reading novels. He does

    Don quickly came back to his senses. He then smiled and tried to make it up. “It's nothing. The vice president asked me to have a drink together. I’ve got no time today. Hence, I rescheduled to meet up with him tomorrow.”Everyone in the Zimmer family was shocked when they heard about it. The vice president of York Enterprise, asking Don to have a drink together?Moreover, Don rejected him and even rescheduled it for tomorrow. He did have some status and face!Everyone in the Zimmer family could not help but step forward and gather around Don to please him.At this time, a squeal of brakes could be heard from the gate of the villa. Several black commercial vehicles stopped at the gate.Then, the car doors were pushed open. A dozen strong men got out of the cars carrying watermelon knives and baseball bats.A wicked man wearing a white shirt was walking in the middle among those brawny men. It was the legendary Tyson Woods.Meanwhile, he was holding a cigarette between his lips a

    The young man, who Linus addressed as Mr. Parker, ignored Ray and immediately set his eyes on Sia. For someone like him who came out of the mountains, fashionable young women from the mountains were women he rarely had a chance to interact with.And then, he glanced at Harvey. He did not bother hiding the disdain in his eyes. It was as if a fly had landed on his delicious cake, and he could not help but feel disgusted. When the image crossed his mind, he said, "Mr. Linus, I don't like people who interfere with our business.""I understand," Linus said coldly. "Let me deal with it."Then, Linus waved his hand, and dozens of mutants from Country A cracked their necks as they moved forward."You're thinking of dealing with who?" A calm voice came from in front of Linus. Then, he saw Harvey was already standing up, as he had already finished helping Sia regulate the energy inside of her. Then, he grabbed the ashtray nearby and hurled it."Ah!" The ashtray landed right on Linus's head,

    Sia was Yvonne's younger cousin, and the two of them had met once. She even called Harvey brother-in-law. However, he did not expect the two of them to meet again in these circumstances.Harvey quickly pushed open the car door, walked out, and immediately checked Sia's pulse and asked, "Sia, what's going on here?"Sia instinctively wanted to struggle when a man touched her. However, when she saw Harvey's face clearly, she calmed down and stopped being on her guard."Why are you here?""Stop talking. Your condition right now is quite unusual. Let me give you a hand," said Harvey with a frown. While he could tell that Sia had been drugged, he did not realize it would be so powerful. The person who drugged Sia also did not think about the consequences and used about ten times more than the standard dosage.Most importantly, this was not some typical poison. It was a kind of insect poison that could awaken one's primal desire. And this situation was quite difficult to deal with. With

    One moment later, Janus approached Emery with a dark expression. Meanwhile, Emery was brewing tea.Emery had just added some tea to the teapot and relaxedly filtered the first pot of water. Then, he took out his antique cup and poured himself a cup of tea.Only once he was almost done did Emery glance at Janus. "What happened?"Janus had a strange expression before he spoke sternly: "Boss, Ms. Isis of Sherril Corp had just been humiliated. Drake, who had just returned from the Northern Land, had also been wasted. They had even knelt and vowed not to harass Ms. Journi again…Emery's hand held his teacup still as he listened. A glint of strange light illuminated his eyes before he calmly said, "Don't tell me Harvey did this."Janus nodded. "I really can't figure it out until today. Just where did Harvey come from? He didn't care who he offended at all. Here, he had just killed Hector and foiled the Island Nation's plans, and the next he did was hurt Drake and humiliate Country A."

  • Harvey York's Rise to Power   Chapter 6747

    Isis took a deep breath as she gritted her teeth, "If you dare hurt Drake, both the Wards of the Northern Land and the Sherril Corp won't show you any mercy!""Oh? Then, I really want to see how you plan not to show me mercy.After he said that, Harvey placed the revolver he held on Drake's shoulder and pulled it.Bang!There was a huge sound, and Drake trembled. His shoulder had been shot, and blood instantly started to flow. If every shout before this was simply trying to scare him, then this shot was clean enough to the point of scaring them. All of them felt Harvey was a murderer.At this point, they finally understood that Harvey was not a risk-taker. He was even crazier than Drake.There was only silence at the scene. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, as everyone was still stunned. They were truly stunned by how fast Harvey did it, and the entire club's atmosphere instantly plummeted. Many were shaking and trembling.While they believed they were more importa

    Isis's expression instantly darkened. Harvey's earlier decisiveness had already made her understand that Harvey would pull the trigger."Bend the knee, apologize, and make your vow," Harvey ordered calmly. "I'm growing impatient. Three, two, one…"Without giving Drake a chance to speak, Harvey pulled the trigger again.Clack!The fourth time. It was still a dry fire.Isis's mind was completely blank, and she was blinded momentarily. While she always looked like someone high-and-mighty, she felt like she was nothing in front of everything Harvey had been doing. She thought that she could easily lose her life.Drake was so scared that he was shuddering.While it was still a dry fire, the next time he pulled the trigger, there was a 50% chance of it being a bullet. No matter who Harvey pointed the gun at, that person would have a 50% chance of going to hell."My, they always said that those who are kind live short lives while those who are problematic live a very long life. I didn

    "You're threatening me?" Harvey patted Drake's cheek. "I know you must be very haughty, but the problem is that you're right in my hands tonight. Do you think threatening me like that is going to help you? Do you actually think I wouldn't dare to pull that trigger after you threatened me?"I've killed people like you for a dime a dozen. Nothing happened to me anyway. Why am I still standing perfectly fine here? At the root of it, it's because people like you are useless!"Harvey continued in high spirits, "Hey, Drake. Do you want to make a bet? Let's bet that no matter how headstrong you are, you're going to kneel on the ground and beg me to spare your life."Drake coldly replied, "And what's the wager? Your life?"Harvey blurted out a laugh. "No, you're not nearly valuable enough to make me wager my life. But, if you don't beg me until the very end, I can agree to any of your conditions.""Fine. At the time, I'll make you kill yourself!" Drake said as he gritted his teeth. "We'll

    "You're that lucky?" Harvey said, his shock palpable on his face. "Alright, one more time."This time, Drake raised his left hand to block the gun's muzzle using all his strength. He believed that if this continued, even if he would not die from a bullet, he would die from the fear alone. "You're scared?" Harvey looked at Drake curiously. "Aren't you the Madman? Aren't you the third in Wolsing out of all the Young Masters? Why are you so afraid of dying? You're so arrogant while harassing my girlfriend. Why are you such a piece of trash now, huh?" Harvey patted Drake's face disdainfully.In that instant, there was only silence. No one expected this man who called himself Journi's boyfriend to be so big-headed. Not only did he dare to threaten Drake, he really wanted to kill Drake. Was he not afraid the Wards of the Northern Land would show him no mercy?But of course, to someone like Journi, while she was surprised, she was mainly touched. She was certain someone like Harvey would

    And then, Harvey waved his left hand. The moment when Drake was stunned, the revolver then dropped into Harvey's hand.Once Harvey had obtained the revolver, he spun the cylinder, unlocked the safety, and pointed the revolver around. All the people who were so smug earlier started to scream and tried to find places to hide after being shocked.Harvey's play with the revolver made it obvious that he would discharge it accidentally.Even Isis, who had always been so high-and-mighty, had her expression darkened for a while and hid behind a marble column subconsciously. He who has nothing to lose has nothing to fear. Harvey looked like he had nothing to lose at all.That was why the foreigners all believed that if they were killed by Harvey, even if Harvey was willing to die for his mistake, it was still something they could not accept. After forcing the group away, Harvey then pointed the revolver at Drake's head.Drake's eyes turned cold. "Who are you, kid? Do you think this is som

    In the end, Journi took a deep breath and buried all her helplessness and fury deeper into her heart. Then, she slowly said, "You must be joking, Ms. Isis. You are the daughter of the Sherril Corp from Country A. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn't dare to cross you. However, I simply wish for you to show some mercy…"To thank you, I'm willing to give you some of the assets in Country A I owe you for free as my gift. I believe you won't make it difficult for me, right?"Journi thought she had already lowered herself to the point that she was practically begging Isis to show her mercy. At this point, she even felt that she was giving up. She even forgot that she had Harvey pretend to be her boyfriend.Harvey was pleased, however. Instead of using an excuse like having a boyfriend, she was willing to accept other conditions in exchange for her freedom. This was a sign that she was maturing."Tsk… Assets from Country A? The few mansions you bought on the West Coast?" Isis lit a cigare
