Chapter 15

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
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 moment. Not because of anything else, but because Don was too shameless. He pretended to be the sender and took away his effort. Was he not afraid of being exposed?

“Mr. Xander, look at the expression of our live-in son-in-law. Doesn’t he look like he wants to hit you?” Zack continued.

“Does he dare? He’s such a coward. I don’t think he would dare to touch Mr. Xander at all, right? Hahaha!”

“He is no match for Mr. Xander. If he dares to do it, we’ll beat him to death!”

“Why? Don’t you dare to speak? Are you scared?” Zack laughed. “Harvey, you’re such a loser. He was coming for your wife tonight and you did not even say a word about it. Aren’t you such a failure?”

“Hahaha!”

Everyone around laughed more happily as soon as he finished speaking.

Mandy’s face darkened. She was still Harvey’s wife nominally. If Harvey was being humiliated, then she was not much better than him. If she knew it would be like this tonight, she would not have brought him here.

Lilian who was at the side stared at Harvey coldly. “Why? Do you still want to get angry? If you dare to cause any trouble tonight, then we’ll see!”

“Harvey, why are you so afraid of your mother-in-law? Don’t you even dare to say a word? Come on, speak your mind. What do you think about Mr. Xander’s proposal to Mandy? Do you agree or disagree? Come on, speak your mind!”

Zack did not want to let Harvey go. He just wanted to make fun of him and humiliate him. Zack was surely enjoying it.

Harvey looked at Zack after hearing his words. He then said slowly, “Okay, if you want me to say it, I’ll say it. I’ll talk about the other matters later. But I was the one who sent the Heart of Prague to Mandy. I don’t want anyone else to falsely claim it.”

The entire villa was silent at this moment. Many people were staring at Harvey in disbelief as if they bumped into a ghost.

“Hahaha…”

Someone started laughing after a while, and then the whole crowd burst into laughter.

“Hahaha, this kid is so funny. He said that he’s the one who bought the Heart of Prague. Does he know how much that thing is?”

“Many people said that he was stupid, but I didn’t believe it. Now, I believe it. This kid must have been kicked in the head by a pig!”

“Oh my gosh! You’re so shameless! How dare you say that it was you when it was Mr. Xander who sent it…”

In the middle of the crowd, only Don’s eyes slightly twitched. However, he reacted quickly and immediately smiled playfully.

Zack was banging the table, laughing while leaning back and forth. He laughed and pointed at Harvey. “Harvey, you are so great at pretending. Tell me, are you so irritated by Don that your brain malfunctioned? Do you think that someone will believe you? Well, even if I reluctantly believe you, then you have to tell me, where did you get this thing?”

“I ordered someone to buy it,” Harvey said calmly. He did ask the Yorks to send him this thing, so he bought it.

“You asked someone to buy it?” Zack tried to hold back his laughter. He then said, “Then tell me, how much did you spend?”

“It’s free. Someone gave it to me as he needed me to help him settle some matters.” Harvey said lightly.

“Someone asked for your help and gave it to you?” Zack had just calmed down, and now he started laughing again.

Hahahaha, the entire crowd was laughing again!

This Harvey was hilarious!

‘Someone asked for his help and gave it to him? He must have not looked at himself in the mirror. Who would ask for his help with his wimpy appearance? What could he do?’

“Then tell me, what did he ask you to do?” Zack continued to speak with a mocking look.

“He would like me to invest.” Harvey said, “Using York Enterprise’s investment.”

“Pfft…” Zack sprayed out his saliva. “Harvey, do you think that you can get involved with York Enterprise just because your surname is also York? Have you woken up yet?”

Don who had been just watching finally glanced at Harvey at this moment, with a mocking expression on his face. “Loser, are you saying that you can decide the use of our company’s funds? You should be just as mindful of what comes out of your mouth as well as what goes into it. How dare you pretend to be in contact with our company—York Enterprise? Have you thought about the consequences?”

“Consequences? Don, you are just a middle-level employee. You are also swindling and bluffing using York Enterprise’s name. Have you ever thought about the consequences?” Harvey said coldly.

Don sneered, “You’re such a loser. You’re like a frog in the well and you know nothing. You could never imagine my position in the company. I am the project manager of York Enterprise. At least one-third of the five billion dollars this time has to pass through me before the investment could proceed.”

“Loser, can you understand what this means?” Don looked furious. “This means that I am the one who decides the rise and fall of many families and businesses in Niumhi!”

Zack looked at Don with admiration. He then pointed at Harvey and scolded. “Harvey! How dare you speak up broadly when you don’t know anything? You’re shaming and dishonoring the Zimmer family!”

“Mr. Xander was an elite of York Enterprise. How can you doubt his status in the company?”

“Harvey, I advise you to apologize to Mr. Xander. Otherwise, you will be in serious trouble later!”

“Mr. Xander, don’t mind him too much. He just can’t understand how noble your identity is!”

“With you here, it’s easy for the Zimmer family to get some project funds…”

Harvey remained silent.

Harvey could not help sneering while seeing the disgusting faces of the people of the Zimmer family. He looked at Don and said, “I heard that the five billion dollars were entirely determined by the new president of York Enterprise. Can a middle-level employee like you intervene in this matter?”

Don was disdainful. “Are you pretending to know about our company’s internal affairs? I’m the right-hand man of the new president. I have his complete trust.”

Don had never seen the new president. However, it did not prevent him to act in front of the Zimmer family, because he knew that they did not dare to question what he said.

Harvey laughed out loudly. “Does the new president trust you? Don, you are so good at lying!”

Don was taken aback. Even the Zimmer family did not dare to question his words, why did this live-in son-in-law seem to know everything?

He looked Harvey up and down several times. He confirmed that Harvey would never know his new president. He then said coldly, “So, you are saying that you know our new president? Even Senior Zimmer will not dare to say such words, who gives you the courage to say this?”

“Mr. Xander, please don’t mind him. He’s too shameless and did not know where he stands!”

“He is completely out of his mind. You don’t have to care about him.”

“Well, well, well, look at his expression, he might think that he is awesome…”

“It’s enough!” Senior Zimmer slightly frowned. He looked at Harvey coldly. “Harvey, there is no place for you to speak here. Do you think you are that great? Get out of here!”

“Yes, get out of here! Don’t be a disgrace here!”

“You are ruining the Zimmer family’s image and reputation!”

Don smiled. He waved his hand to stop everyone. He then said, “Loser, I won’t bully you today. I will give you a chance…”

“As long as you can tell who the new president of our company is, I will apologize to you! But…if you can’t, you will crawl out this door on your knees today!”

Don could already imagine Harvey crawling out of the gate after he finished saying this. The new president had just taken over the company today and he was very mysterious. He also did not know the name of the new president. How would Harvey know?

“Mr. Xander is so kind. You are willing to give him a chance. Thank you for showing some respect toward the Zimmer family!”

“Harvey, don’t be so shameless. Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Xander!”

“Harvey, who do you think you are?!” Lilian stood up, pointed at him, and cursed, “Who gave you the right to do whatever you want here? Do you think you are a high-flyer? How dare you keep pointing fingers here? Get out now!”

Hahaha!

The people around him were all laughing. Even his mother-in-law refused to give him face. This live-in son-in-law might as well die.

If it was in the past, Harvey would have apologized obediently.

However, at this moment, the corners of Harvey’s mouth rose upward. He stared at Lilian coldly.

Mandy thought it was a little weird. She had been with Harvey for three years. He had always been weak. She never thought that she would be so unfamiliar with Harvey at the moment.

Harvey stood up slowly and looked around. Those ugly faces made him intolerable.

He took a deep breath and said coldly, “Don’t you all want to know who the new president of York Enterprise is?”

“Okay! I will tell you today!”

    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

She was extremely nervous at this moment!Who was this? This was Tyson Woods—the well-known Brother Tyson.

    Vaida's slap was direct and ruthless, carrying an indescribable force. In one hit, Tina was instantly struck into a daze as she stumbled unsteadily. A scarlet handprint instantly appeared on her face; she looked disheveled.Tina looked at Vaida in disbelief, her voice trembling. "You hit me? Grand City is a society of law, and you hit me?" Tina couldn't understand why Vaida would hit her at this point. She was just a schizophrenic woman, and she was at the edge of losing control of Belladonna. What made her think she could still act so boldly? Who did Vaida think she was?It was obvious that deep down, Tina had no respect whatsoever for Vaida. In her mind, she could scare Vaida away by just using Coco's name. Coco was the number one princess in Grand City. Meanwhile, Vaida was just a madwoman… What right did Vaida think she had to cross Coco?Tina never expected Vaida to have no fear of Coco. Vaida even slapped her so hard that she almost dropped to the ground.Tina bit her lip

    "I also think it's inappropriate to make such a request, but I have no choice. The VIP wants this private room. This is the Supreme Chamber, which represents one's status," Tina said as she narrowed her eyes at Alexei, mockery evident in her gaze."As you know, the Port View Restaurant believes that customers are gods. Now that our gods are here, of course we must accommodate their minor request. Princess Vaida, Mr. Alexei, you're both smart people. You understand that it's not easy for us, either. Can you please move quickly? We still need to clean up this room. If the VIP finds this room dirty, it might be difficult for us to handle.Tina's words right now were pure humiliation, the ones that could make men go berserk. Alexei's expression instantly turned dark.Port View Restaurant was owned by Belladonna Cult. Vaida was the scion of the Belladonna Cult. In other words, this was her turf. It was outrageous for her to be asked to leave when she was halfway through a meal, especia

    "Alright, let's put that aside for now," Harvey said, ending the topic. "If word got out, we might force Dan to do everything he can to kill me."He shrugged. "Let's have some proper food now. Why hasn't the main dish been served yet? Didn't you order extra just now?" Harvey glanced at Alexei.Alexei chuckled. "Don’t worry about it, Big Bro. I ordered extra and all their signature dishes."He purposely showed Harvey the menu for the signature dishes. Looking at the number of zeroes behind the items, Harvey was speechless. It was just a meal… It didn't need to cost them thousands.Alexei chuckled again. "Don't worry about paying. I'll be straight with you. This restaurant is owned by Belladonna Cult, so Senior Vaida is its owner. She'll sign the bill off later, so we don't have to pay. Don't sweat it. After this, we'll come here more frequently for meals and drinks. We might not be able to go to the other places, but this place is fine, right?"Alexei's expression was one of

    “According to the rules of Belladonna Cult, everything in the Belladonna Cult will go to big bro Harvey after you get married to him. Only then will we have enough support to go against him until the end!" Alexei said through gritted teeth.He wasn't really that foolish. He knew the best time to act. At the very least, they shouldn't confront Dan head-on now. Otherwise, none of them could afford to bear the consequences.Harvey looked at the two of them, speechless. What were they talking about? Why were they talking about marrying him? They had to be joking about him marrying Vaida, right?Vaida was indeed quite beautiful and had a curvaceous figure, but they didn't have much feelings for each other. There was no reason for them to get married. Anyway, this was not a good time to meet with Dan.Harvey sat up straight and said to Vaida softly. "I appreciate it, Vaida. I know you want to get justice for me, but if you ask me, this is where this stops now. There's no need to escala

    "Harvey, I don't think you should go to your training hall late unless absolutely necessary. I believe Sverker and Ghostface will definitely come attack you. Even if you must go, let me know in advance. I'll have someone from Belladonna Cult accompany you," Vaida said seriously.It was obvious that she didn't spend her days idly after she came back. She had already eliminated certain elements within the Belladonna cult and regained some control over the cult.Harvey simply smiled after hearing that. "Don't worry. I can handle it myself.""That's right, Senior Vaida! He's one of the top elites in the world!" Alexei said almost in a mumble as he stuffed a sticky date pudding into his mouth. "You didn't see just how good he was back in the casino. The Nine Wicked Blades from the Origin Sword Style was quite dangerous, yes? But in the end? They lost to him, and he only used one finger! You can't compare his powers with ordinary people."Alexei quickly gobbled up all the food on the tab

    Hearing the sincerity in Dan's voice, Clarion was at a sudden loss for words. He had said so much and did nothing wrong, but why must he be the one to take the fall?Did they know nothing about the meaning of forever?No… They knew—they knew exactly what was happening here.Clarion had a feeling that if he took these accusations upon himself, there was only one path waiting for him—an extremely painful death.Coming to this realization, Clarion took a deep breath and said slowly, " I'll say it one more time. You can order me to die, and you can even make me disappear forever, but you cannot destroy my reputation forever. Between losing my reputation and death… I would rather die!"As soon as he finished, he kicked the coffee table in front of Dan and left the office without looking back.-"Tsk! I didn't expect Dan to have made such a lapse of judgment. Regardless of what happened, Clarion was still loyal to him. Even though he became somewhat hesitant after I saved him, he stil

    Hearing that, Neve was well aware of Clarion's frustration. If things were to continue like this, Clarion would become Dan's puppet even if he remained unscathed.Dan likely intended to stabilize his social circle and prevent Clarion from aligning with Harvey. For some reason, Neve felt that forcing Clarion in such a manner might not be beneficial."Alright, Clarion. We're all adults here," Poisonless said with a smile, trying to ease the tension. "All of us here know full well of your calculations. While you've been with Dan all these years, you have never fully dedicated yourself to him. You acted like a fencesitter so that when the time comes, you can place your bets on someone else."And now, instead of holding you responsible over what happened in the past, Dan is giving you a chance to redeem yourself. By sacrificing your reputation, you'll be able to regain his full trust. No matter how you look at it, it's a good deal."Also, do you honestly believe it's mere coincidence

  • Harvey York's Rise to Power   Chapter 7021

    Dan looked nonchalant. Feigning sincerity, he said calmly to Clarion, "I have two reasons for doing this. "Firstly, I want to prevent this matter from affecting others. Since you've already been dragged into the mud, it's better for you to take the fall alone and protect everyone else. Secondly, it's clear that Harvey York is the one who has offended Sky Plane and you're simply taking the fall for him. I did this so I could anger Harvey."I've already thought of a solution to resolve this issue for you. All you need to do now is to release a statement clarifying that the person Sky Plane is really going for is Harvey. Criticize him, and the public opinion should shift in your favor."You should trust us. Public opinion is still ours to control," Dan said confidently. He shrugged, as if he had everything under control. "There's no way Harvey will survive this unscathed. I've already received news that Origin Sword Style's Sverker and Origin Ninjutsu's Ghostface had left Sky Plan

    But Clarion didn't care about Neve's signal despite how much he liked her.He simply looked straight at Dan and said slowly, "It's my fault to come here without an invitation, but I have a reason to do so! Something's making me unable to hold myself back! I hope you can give me an explanation…"Clarion pulled out his phone and tapped open a news article, putting it in front of Dan. When Neve saw how Clarion dared to question Dan directly, her expression darkened. She instinctively glanced at the content, and her eyes twitched. While Dan did say that he would pin the blame on Clarion, she didn't expect that Dan would make Clarion take the fall for everything.Neve was smart enough to see the truth—someone was doing this to get back at Dan, and Clarion was only taking the fall. However, she didn't say it out loud so as not to complicate matters. Dan didn't reply and simply asked curiously, "Why do you think that this is my doing and not that Harvey you've aligned with right now?
