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

    Harvey glanced at Mandy in surprise. Harvey initially felt that his wife had neglected him since the beginning and did not care about him at all. Thus, he never thought that she would care about his safety at this moment. His heart warmed up thinking of this.However, Mandy did not notice the change of emotion in Harvey’s mind. She was extremely nervous at this moment!Who was this? This was Tyson Woods—the well-known Brother Tyson. Although she had not seen him in person, she had heard many people mentioning him.Tyson Woods was said to be just a gangster a few years ago, but then he was recruited, trained, and groomed by somebody.

    Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t

    Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane

    Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some

    It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go

    "No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig

    Hale's expression was one of shock.Susan was the same.Hale didn't expect Sky Plane's plan to be so vicious. They wanted the Chapter of Ascension and to use the chance to plunge Grand City into chaos.Susan was shocked about how accurate Harvey's guesswork was. If it wasn't because she knew that someone like him would never have a connection with Sky Plane, she would even think that he might have a hand in setting up the trap that looked like it was simply a string of coincidences.Otherwise, how would he have known everything in such detail?Clarion looked at Harvey with more admiration. While he looked like just an ordinary man, whether his power or perception was far beyond them.Hale slowly closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down for a long time.Then, he turned and looked at Susan and muttered, "Now that we have reached this juncture, I don't think that there should be any more secrets between you and I. Just one question. Did everything happen exactly as Mr. Harvey

    "Or maybe, in your subconscious, you do realize that something isn't right. Maybe you simply feel that it's better for her not to know about some things. That way, things will be safer for her," Harvey said with a shrug. "However, the truth is that she didn't get anything from you at all until yesterday, isn't it?"Hale nodded. "You're right. I did have some doubts about her in my mind, that's why I did tell her everything except the Chapter of Ascension."Hale seemed to reminisce about something else before giving a painful smile. "And then, as time passed by, I no longer suspected her. But I'm worried that it'll get her killed, so I chose not to say anything. I believed that as long as I said nothing, we'll be able to live a peaceful life! No one expects that in the end…"Hale signed, looking hopeless when he said that.However, Susan simply smiled icily. "Stop your crocodile tears, Hale. You never trusted me, so stop saying that you love me!"Hale smiled bitterly. He didn't w

    Clarion was stunned when he saw Mrs. Hoffman was still trying to argue her way out."Even the way you argue is the same as the Origin Ninjas. Seriously?" Harvey smirked. "Right, I heard that the Origin Ninjas would leave the mark of a petal on the most private spot so that it was easier for them to identify each other. You must have seen it, right, Mr. Hoffman? Of course, I believe she'd definitely say it was just a tattoo that she had while she was in her youth."Unfortunately, I believe that Grand City has plenty of records. It should be quite easy for us to find the evidence we need. That's why, Mrs. Hoffman… Is there really a need to deny it anymore now that we've reached this point?"Mrs. Hoffman shuddered a little. She didn't expect that Harvey would be able to easily see through all her disguise. Most importantly, he even knew about the most damning evidence on her. In a situation like this, continuing with the argument really was pointless."You… You…!"At the same tim

    Harvey said calmly, "You smell like one of them."Whoosh!Before Harvey could finish, Mrs. Hoffman immediately pounced at him. In midair, she waved her hand and threw a string of knives.All her blades were blue in color. They looked very pretty, but if they scratched one's skin, one could easily lose their lives if they weren't sent to the hospital immediately.Clarion was shocked when he saw what was unfolding. It was obvious he didn't expect Harvey's words to help them identify Mrs. Hoffman's real identity and forced her to attack.Still, that was quite normal. Thinking back about it, Mrs. Hoffman's calmness during this whole ordeal showed that she was not a normal woman.The power she suddenly showed was within their expectation, and they could understand it too.However, this exact revelation was making things more painful for Hale. It hurt him even more than finding out that his beloved wife sold him out. Clank! Clank! Clank!Harvey pulled up a small fruit knife and thr
