Harvey York's Rise to Power Chapter 154
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

At that moment, Wyatt Johnson’s facial expression changed. He took a few steps forward and said coldly, “I still think that this painting is fake. At most, it’s just a replica which resembles the original painting tremendously. Miss Naiswell, isn’t your grandpa an expert master in the field of appraising? May we have the honor to ask for help from him, to take a look at it?” Hearing that, Rosalie Naiswell trembled. She had a much deeper admiration toward Wyatt now. ‘That’s true. At a time like this, even he could not confirm the authenticity of “The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak”. Maybe the only way is to ask for help from my own grandpa, so that we can identify its authenticity. Besides, Wyatt is able to act so calm under such a circumstance. It’s enough to prove that he’s indeed an exceptional man!’ At that moment, Rosalie took a deep breath, stepped forward and said, “If that’s the case, I’ll ask my grandpa to take a look at this painting and to identify its authenticity!” Ha

“Live-in son-in-law! Let go of Miss Naiswell’s phone this instant!” “How could you argue with Master Naiswell given your capability? Are you insane?” “We were stupid just now. How could we believe you?” At that moment, everyone present condemned Harvey York, scolding him ceaselessly. But in that instant, Shane Naiswell drew in a cold breath all of a sudden at the other end of the video call. He then said in confusion, “Is it the luminous technique? That was Albert Bierstadt’s special painting skill. How could there be such a technique on a fake painting? During all these years after so many eras, there is indeed no one who’s able to make such a replica in such an exceptional manner. It’s impossible. How could it be possible…” At that point in time, Shane was filled with deep disbelief. “Sir, after hearing what you said just now, do you think that this painting is authentic? Then could you explain why there are two remaining paintings which are currently displayed in the mus

She could refrain from believing Harvey York’s judgment. But she had absolute trust in Shane Naiswell. It was because her grandfather was an expert master in the appraising field. There were indeed not that many people who enjoyed the same prestigious status as her grandfather in their country. “Sir, if you’re free as of late, please come to the Naiswells to meet me. You’re most welcome here at any time.” At the other end of the phone, Shane smiled faintly before hanging up the phone. After that, Harvey threw the phone to Rosalie Naiswell casually. He then smiled faintly and said, “Miss Naiswell, do you still remember our bet just now?” “I…” Rosalie was speechless. ‘Do I really have to address him as my father?’ Standing beside them, Wyatt Johnson became deeply furious. He then scolded, “Harvey, are you even a gentleman? Miss Naiswell was joking with you. How could you be so serious about it? How could you try to make things difficult for a woman? Is that what you’re capable o

Mandy Zimmer was slightly anxious too. She then said apologetically, “Miss Naiswell, we’re truly sorry. Harvey just said that casually. Don’t take it to heart. Please don’t mind him.”Wyatt Johnson said dully, “Mandy, although he’s your husband, you can’t always protect him like that. He’s indeed just a coward. You really don’t have to act like this.” Rosalie Naiswell frowned deeply as her facial expression worsened. At first, the incident had ended. But after what the others did, the incident became worse, and she would only become quite humiliated. Thinking of that, her voice became much colder, “Harvey, we can’t joke about the reputation and dignity of the Naiswells. You’d better explain yourself clearly. If not, this won’t end here.” Harvey York admired Rosalie more now. Nowadays, there were not many people who were so honest and straightforward. Thinking of that, Harvey said slowly, “Miss Naiswell, don’t worry. Please listen to my explanation.”“Previously, you said that

Needless to say, Wyatt, Jake, and Cecilia wanted Harvey to die. Why would they consider helping Harvey right now?Additionally, the others were eager to auction again, because “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” was so famous that there were many people who wanted it.At that moment, a young man in a suit walked out from behind the stage with a few bodyguards.“Mr. Cloude…” The auctioneer let out a sigh of relief when he saw the young man. This was Jude of the Cloudes, the person in charge of the auction, and he already knew about what had happened just now.Jude’s cold gaze travelled around the room before settling on Harvey. He smiled at him. “Sir, I heard that you helped identify the authenticity of “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak”. To express our apology, we will pay you an appraisal fee of one hundred and fifty-two thousand dollars. Please do not refuse it.”Harvey frowned slightly. What did Jude mean? Giving him an appraisal fee? Was he shamelessly trying to get out of

Rosalie who was standing nearby spoke up, “Jude, you are way out of line.”“Rosalie…” Jude frowned. He did not care about Mandy, in fact, the entire Zimmer family was nothing to him. However, things were different when it came to the Naiswells since they were also a top family in the provincial town. Since Rosalie had spoken, it would be bad if he did not give her some face.Jude smiled while thinking about it, and eventually said, “I won’t say too much since Miss Naiswell has spoken, but some people should be a little more self-aware and know their place. It’s as the saying goes “a man’s wealth is his ruin by invoking others’ greed”. This saying has been popular since ancient times, hasn’t it?”Jude gazed at Harvey pointedly after that, then turned around and left. He already knew that “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” was in Harvey’s hands, but was it not easy for him to get it back?Harvey frowned contemplatively. He knew what Jude was thinking, but he was not worried that Ju

Evening. Six o'clock. The sun was already setting. It was the most beautiful hour of the day, and it was also the most fortuitous hour of the day.However, an iciness slowly expanded from the Island Nation embassy in Wolsing's countryside, next to Lake Dove.According to international law, the area where the embassy was belonged to the Islanders. Which meant this area, including Lake Dove, was territory belonging to the Island Nation. This land followed the law of the Island Nations, and the ones protecting the land were their nations.After working hard for decades, the Islanders finally acquired such a good piece of land, which was a rare opportunity for them.Today was also a day that was worth remembering for the Island Nation's Shinto Way.How attractive it was for someone from the Shinto Way, one of the Island Nation's Six Schools of Martial Arts, to marry someone from Xavier of Wolsing, one of Country H's Top Ten Families.That was why the Island Nation's five other sc

Yvonne's expression was cold as she said nothing. Shingen could feel his anger building up when he saw how Yvonne refused to say anything, as if she were not afraid.He immediately pushed Jesse away, who wanted to stop him. He walked over and grabbed Yvonne by the throat. "Do you think you can act arrogantly just because Jesse is protecting you and I need to show your family respect? I'm warning you. After today, that sorry excuse of a man you love will have his fate decided!"I will turn his head into a decoration and put it right on our bedside table! I will make sure he watches us sleep together forever!"Shingen let go of his hand when he said that, then turned to look at Jesse with a dark expression. "It's getting late. Make sure she looks pretty, and get her into the bridal car! If you missed the time, then the entire wedding is off!"After that, Shingen gave a cold snort and left with his men. It was obvious that not only did he want to conquer Yvonne, but he was going to us

Yvonne did not even raise her eyes, as if an air of death surrounded her. It was as if everything she did today was just to complete a mission. And once that mission was done, her existence would be meaningless after that.Slap!When Shingen saw that Yvonne was like a marionette, his arrogant smile became cold and furious. He immediately slapped her on the face with an open palm.Yvonne said nothing but could not control herself and fell to the ground because of the force. Even her forehead was bleeding a little from the hit."Do you think you can avoid this by pretending to be deaf? Or do you think you can die once you've married into the Tokugawa family after the wedding is complete, and the Tokugawa family's and Xavier family's cooperation is complete?" Shingen said with a smirk."It's useless. If you obey me, then it's fine. If you don't, then I'll simply feed you the special Bonerust Powder that the Shinto Way makes. Forget about trying to commit suicide; you won't even have

Two in the afternoon. Wolsing residence.52 Toyota Centuries appeared in front of the gate.All the cars had diplomatic plates, and one could sense the arrogance of the drivers and passengers from miles away.Several members of the Xavier family had just prepared to ask them for their identities. Still, they did not expect the convoy to crash into the gate and barriers immediately and then walk into the Xavier family's residence.Several islanders even rolled down their cars, gave them the middle finger as they could only watch in shock, and said, "You don't even know our convoy? If it isn't because our boss is willing to marry someone from your family, you'll drop out of the top ten soon enough! How blind can you be?"The islanders let out a laugh.They managed to break into one of the small courtyards within the residence in no time. They kicked open the door, and behind it was Yvonne's room, which she had grown up in.Currently, maids are helping Yvonne change into her tradit

"While the Xaviers of Wolsing looked courteous before us, the people from Country H are known for their schemes. We must be on our guard at all times…" It was rare for Shingen to be so patient and to educate his assistants.After that, Shingen remembered something and said, "Right, did you manage to get Ky City's Director Netsu?"Nobita snickered. "Not only did I manage to, but Director Netsu even led his entire team here when he heard it was to serve you. He said that they can accommodate you no matter what kind of script you want."Shingen scoffed. "I don't need any special script. He simply needs to ensure he records the video when I bed her tonight, and then send some to Harvey. I heard that the woman who will become mine used to be Harvey's. If he sees his woman become the Director Netsu's female lead for his latest work, he might even lose his Martial Art focus," replied Shingen smilingly.That was his kink.He liked to sleep with his opponent's wife or family member, make s

Nobita whispered, "Sir, I believe there's no need to use this crazy woman. I'll tell all my men to attack, and we can outnumber Harvey if that's what it takes. That bastard… How dare he take the initiative to challenge us instead!"He must be someone reckless. Didn't he know that it's his people's fate to stay inside and surrender?"Looking at the furious Nobita, Shingen coldly replied, "If he's that easy to deal with, he wouldn't be able to become the representative of Country H's Martial Arts Alliance. Get more of the drugs from Country A's embassy and give them to Liza. We can kill Harvey by throwing money at him."Both Shouta and Nobita nodded. "Understood."After that, Shingen calmly asked, "How's the promotion of my wedding?"Shouta said, "Don't worry, sir. While the wedding was in Country H, we let all the Island Nation's media's best reporters come over. Before long, the Island Nation will know that you will marry a daughter from the Xaviers of Wolsing. Your status is alre

George briefly hesitated before continuing and said, "I also noticed something other than this. The Island Nation embassy was preparing for a wedding. From the looks of it, tonight would be the wedding."From my informants, the people getting married are Yvonne and Shingen."Geroge paused momentarily before continuing, "From what I heard, Yvonne lost her parents a long time ago, and Sheldon brought her up. However, Sheldon is still imprisoned within the Xavier of Wolsing's ancestral land. I heard that if Yvonne refuses to marry, then Sheldon will die."Only now did Harvey manage to connect the dots. For example, why did Yvonne leave without saying a word? For instance, why would Yvonne suddenly marry another man? When the thought crossed his mind, Harvey extended his right hand, slammed the table, and said, "From now on, you have the authority to use everything I have. But you must get Sheldon out before the wedding tonight."George was stunned. "Sir, please do anything rash! That'

"You!" Liza was so furious that she seemed to go berserk as she kept pouncing at Rachel. Unfortunately, Rachel had already realized that her lower half was defenseless. No matter how she attacked, Rachel would only focus on her legs.After exchanging blows, Rachel used a chance to kick Liza in the stomach. Liza let out a scream as she was immediately thrown out. When she dropped to the ground, the burst of internal energy and the drug after-effects made her twitch on the ground, and she could not get back up after some time."See? This is the price you pay for your revenge," Harvey signaled Rachel to stop as he looked at Liza and gave a sigh. "The power of martial arts comes from training for a long period. You, or should I say, the person behind this all, had the wrong understanding. They all think that you, after using the genetic drug, would be able to kill me with your increased power."Unfortunately, it was meaningless. In front of absolute power, your fake power meant absolute

"Everything was an act that you directed yourself! Your acting is so good that even I almost believed all of this!" Liza could not be bothered by Harvey's explanation as she was drowned in her own rage. "Someone like you can lie to the entire world, but you can't lie to someone as smart as us! All the other overseas Martial Arts Alliance will fight you till the end! We won't allow someone like you to have such a high position within the Alliance!"And then, Liza pulled out the one last syringe and stabbed it into herself. Then, she moved. She roared as she pounced toward Harvey's location.Bang!Charlotte instinctively stepped before Harvey, using her hands to block Liza's attack wave. However, she did not expect that after Liza had injected herself with so much drug, not only had her power increased, but her entire combat capabilities also had improved.Charlotte, who could normally crush Liza, was forced back after one single punch. She only stopped after she slid almost 30 feet
