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 didn't let Coco get off scot-free. Instead, he walked up to her with a blank expression and slapped her directly across the face.Slap!Coco let out a painful cry; she immediately flew backward, slamming into a wall opposite the door with a loud bang.Harvey then took out a wet paper towel to wipe his fingers and said calmly, "Why don't you guess if I'm bold enough to kill you?"Coco held her face as she stumbled to her feet, staring at Harvey with wide eyes. The pain on her face aside, she was filled with disbelief and indescribable fury. She couldn't believe there was someone in Grand City not afraid to move against her and even dared to assault her directly.There was no difference between this and having a death wish!She was the princess of Parkerville! In her own family and among the Seven Families of Grand City, she was already standing at the top of the hierarchy. How could Harvey stand up to her? What leverage did he have against her?"What?!"Tina and the othe

    "I'm warning you! You better grovel at her feet right now and slap yourself a hundred times so that this is over! Otherwise, you're going to die a horrible death!" Tina yelled as she bared her teeth at Harvey, as if wanting to shred him into pieces.It was clear that to Tina, since she couldn't do anything to Vaida, she could at least take it out on Harvey, right? She was very familiar with the heirs of the powerful families within Grand City. Harvey was very unfamiliar to her and didn't look like someone important at all.Even Coco was sizing Harvey up from head to toe. "You should know your place," she said coldly. "There's a hierarchy in this world, and there are rules you shouldn't touch. There are also people you shouldn't offend so easily. In other words, when you want to step in for someone else, you should also see just how much strength you have. Otherwise, you might lose your head before you can even do anything."Both sides had completely turned against each other tod

    Despite his fear, Alexei finally stood up and yelled at Coco and her entourage. "Senior Vaida is fine! You can't do whatever you want! Do you really think you can act as you please with the Belladonna Cult?!"Harvey shot him a surprised glance. He wasn't expecting Alexei to be courageous enough to speak out like that. Vaida remained silent; she only looked at Coco coldly, as if wanting to see what Coco was going to do next."Who do you think you are, Alexei? Since when do you have any power to decide whether Vaida is sick? Only the doctors are qualified to do that," Coco sneered. "And only the doctors who work for the Parker family, at that. Now, take Vaida to the mental health institution. Stop wasting our time!" Coco presented herself assertively, as if she was going to use this excuse to admit Vaida into the institution.What of the consequences?With Parkerville's influence in Grand City currently, they didn't have to care about the consequences. Before Coco's men could

    With an icy demeanor, Vaida said slowly to Coco, "What if I say no?""No?" Coco looked at Vaida as if she didn't know what was good for her. "What right do you have to say no? If you know what's good for you, you'll sell me Port View Restaurant cheap right now! Once my brother takes over, this place will ultimately become mine! Stop treating yourself like you're the owner here."Even the Belladonna Cult thinks you're just a madwoman, and that they should support my brother fully. Who do you think you are now? If it weren't for your father's reputation, everything the Belladonna Cult owned would have been confiscated by the city a long time ago! You’re just a schizophrenic woman… Do you really think you're anyone important?"I'll give you three seconds to get the hell out of the Supreme Chamber! Otherwise, I'm going to teach you a lesson!""I dare you to say that again," Vaida hissed.Her eyes turned even colder."A long time ago, Dan was the one begging my father, kneeling in fr

    “However, if it's discovered that you have taken even a single cent from Port View Restaurant… I'm sorry, but I’ll have no choice but to send you to jail.”Vaida extended her finger and slowly mimicked slitting her throat.Upon hearing these words, Tina began to shudder, her face as pale as a sheet.Harvey gave an approving nod. Vaida was efficient and also dealt a powerful emotional blow. She stood on moral high ground, what she did was enough to infuriate Coco. All this while, the Parkers had treated Port View Restaurant as their asset. Coco might even be one of those who embezzled funds from the restaurant. If Vaida sent Tina to prison, this would indeed be very interesting.Tina's face was pale at that moment. She instinctively looked at Coco, trembling as she begged, "Princess Coco…"It was obvious that she believed only Coco could save her now. Coco furrowed her brows, and her expression darkened. She stared coldly at Vaida."No need to audit the accounts. I can tell y

    "According to the rules, this place won't have anything to do with you anymore in the future!" Coco said confidently in front of everyone, wanting to shame Vaida publicly.Vaida spat icily, "According to the agreement, only when I can't find my man of destiny within the appointed time will all the Belladonna Cult's assets go to Dan. Unfortunately for you, I have already found him. From that moment onward, everything the cult owns has nothing to do with Dan anymore. Do you understand? But of course, if you think this place doesn't belong to me…"You can call the Seven Families Joint Meeting, and we can discuss this at length. Let's see who owns the Belladonna Cult's assets."Coco's expression turned a little colder after hearing that. However, she retrained her emotions and smiled brilliantly. She knew very well according to Grand City's rules, since Vaida managed to find her man of destiny, Dan would never be able to take over the Belladonna Cult's properties.But what if her man

    "Vaida, Grand City is now governed by laws. It's not right to start hitting people here, isn't it?"Just as Tina was about to crawl away, the clacking of high heels came from the entrance. A faint scent of perfume wafted through the air with a somewhat seductive tang.Harvey instinctively looked at the entrance. Elegantly dressed men and women walked in, chatting and laughing. A gorgeous woman in her twenties led the entourage.Not only were her facial features exquisite, but she also had quite a curvaceous physique. There was an air of superiority surrounding her, as if she could easily overshadow everyone else. She was wearing the most fashionable black dress, showcasing her long legs and demonstrating her perfect curves.While this woman wasn't very mature, she was full of charm and allure. To use a more modern term, she was obviously quite the player and skilled at charming men. She was none other than Coco Parker, princess of Parkerville.The moment Tina saw that woman, she

    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
