Chapter 169

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
“Grandpa, I would like to request something. As we don’t have much time left, I’m planning to start the construction tomorrow, so I would like to pick someone trustworthy to keep an eye on the construction process,” Mandy said to Senior Zimmer.

“Sure, pick anyone you like,” Senior Zimmer replied easily.

“Grandpa, I pick Harvey…” Mandy suggested hesitantly as she looked at Harvey.

Mandy was starting to think that Harvey was reliable, so she wanted to give Harvey a chance to learn what it was like working on the frontline.

Senior Zimmer frowned at Mandy’s request.

“Mandy Zimmer, do you really think you can control everything about the project? It’s not even your asset to begin with! You want to let this worthless guy supervise the construction? Who’s gonna bear the responsibility if he screws up?” Zack Zimmer shouted, jealousy clear in his tone.

“Grandpa already said that I’m in charge of the entire project. Who are you to object?” Mandy replied with a frown.

“Mandy, please don’t

    It didn’t take long before the news spread around Niumhi that the Zimmers got a fifty million dollar fund from the Yorks.“I heard they got the funds because of a woman!”“Is it the one who has a live-in husband?”“I heard the husband bought the painting “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” for only fifteen dollars, and gave it to the CEO of York Enterprise.”“No wonder!”“Could it be that the CEO was interested in Mandy?”Outsiders started to gossip all of a sudden, but that didn’t stop the Zimmers from becoming more popular, as a lot of families came to visit in the afternoon.The Zimmer Villa was crowded, and everyone was there except for Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer.Other families had come to learn a thing or two on how they got the funding, but it was too bad that Mandy wasn’t there to share the details.At the Platinum Hotel.Harvey wanted to meet Tyson Woods, and coincidentally met Jake Surrey on the way.Jake was surprised to see Harvey there as he had come with th

    “I didn’t mean that, Brother Tyson, I meant get rid of this fool…” Jake Surrey was confused at Tyson Woods’s sudden change of attitude. He thought Tyson was offended by his language, but who could resist that much money?“Did you just call me a fool again?” Tyson bellowed as he kicked Jake to the ground.“This Surrey guy just called me a fool, I’m gonna rip him apart myself!” Tyson yelled to his subordinates as they approached Jake.“Brother Tyson, I didn’t call you a fool! I came here to give you money!”“Brother Tyson, I’ll give you more!”“Why, Brother Tyson? Why?!”“Ahhh!”Jake let out a scream as he felt intense pain in his legs. He was just a pampered rich kid; he had no idea that he would ever face something like this.Jake fainted after a few seconds.“Sir, he passed out,” Tyson said respectfully as he walked towards Harvey.“So you’re accepting jobs from anyone now, huh? I made you who you are today to help me arrange resources, not to bully others. If you still don’

    “The Brookes have a hand in both legal and illegal businesses. I heard that they run a security company which covers almost half of Niumhi’s territory,” Tyson said cryptically, then continued, “Two of our employees were beaten up the last time they went to tell them about the fund retrieval. It was a good thing our men interfered or they would be gone by now.”“Messing with the Yorks? How bold of them,” Harvey laughed, eyes gleaming in interest.“The Brookes are no big deal. I heard a rich kid from their family is close to Liam Stone, maybe that’s why they’re so cocky,” Tyson scoffed.Liam Stone was another thug in Niumhi. Both Liam’s and Tyson’s power were about the same, but they couldn’t do anything to each other.“So you mean that Liam is the backbone of the Brookes? Are you trying to tell me that you can’t handle this?” Harvey asked, narrowing his eyes.“Of course not, but we could lose a lot of men if we picked a fight with them. I wouldn’t do it without your permission,” Ty

    That afternoon, Harvey received a phone call from Mandy.“Harvey, the first transaction of funds from York Enterprise has just arrived, help me thank Miss Xavier for me,” Mandy requested, a hint of joy in her tone.“Huh?” Harvey nearly leaped out of his seat. Did Mandy know about his identity?!“Wasn’t she your classmate? I would like to treat her one day when she’s free,” Mandy continued cheerfully.“Alright, we’ll see how it goes. I heard she’s usually quite busy.” Harvey was relieved that his cover had not been blown, and carefully rejected Mandy’s offer. God knows what would happen if those two women became friends.“Oh right, I’ll be coming home late tonight. I have something to take care of first,” Harvey told Mandy as he planned to pay Liam Stone a visit that night.“Okay… but I’ll probably keep my door… unlocked…” Mandy said shyly after a moment of silence.Beep… Beep… Beep...Mandy ended the call immediately after that.Harvey was excited after hearing what Mandy had

    Meanwhile, an elderly man dressed in traditional garbs stood waiting in the underground boxing gym. He surveyed his surroundings with an unhappy gaze, not making any attempts to hide his displeasure towards the place.Anyone who watches television broadcasts on treasure authentication would easily recognize this man. He was none other than Shane Naiswell, the grand master of treasure authentication.The reason for his arrival in the city of Niumhi was to have Harvey York authenticate an extremely valuable relic.However, his appearance in the gym tonight was for the purposes of meeting up with an old friend rather than work. Rosalie Naiswell, who stood beside him all this time, wore a similarly displeased expression.From the room where they were in, they received a clear view of the boxing competition held down in the ring.Although they hailed from a respected lineage, occasions like this were no stranger to them. As a family well-known for working with antiques, there were ti

  • Harvey York's Rise to Power   Chapter 175

    This was the most exclusive and highly anticipated segment of the underground boxing gym. Its primary purpose was to promote interaction between the boxers and the audience, giving the audience a chance to experience boxing in the ring. If they won, they would be able to leave with cash prizes. However, such an outcome was impossible.After all, they were merely spectators. How would it be possible for them to defeat professional boxers?“I’ll go up and play for a while, then.” Harvey York chuckled and donned a face mask. With a swing of his arm, he flipped into the boxing ring.“Seems we have a very brave and mysterious challenger here with us who wants to be the first to get punched.” The referee said with a wide grin. He couldn’t hide his look of disdain. What’s the point of putting on a mysterious act when you’d just end up on the ground with your blood splattered everywhere? The last time the referee saw a man with an iron man mask participate, that very same man ended up beate

    As he observed Rosalie’s changing expressions, Liam Stone sniggered inwardly. He wasn’t dense enough to ignore the implication that Rosalie Naiswell may have a special relationship with the man who had just climbed into the ring. Thinking this, he saw hope in having her all to himself. Without anyone noticing, Liam Stone quickly texted something on his phone. Once finished, he glanced over at Rosalie Naiswell. If everything went according to plan, this beautiful woman would be his tonight.…Outside the boxing ring.Standing in the spectator wing, Tyson Woods was on pins and needles. Harvey York was simply out of his mind. Facing Liam Stone in person to make the deal was a far better option than whatever he was attempting right now. Perhaps Harvey York couldn’t understand the meaning of the word ‘death.’…In the boxing ring.Harvey York casually wrapped his fists with white bandages, his expression neutral and unperturbed.His opponent, the boxer, studied him with an amused s

    As he ended his sentence, Liam Stone was unable to hide his look of disgust. The boxer who had just got knocked out by Harvey York was in truth a reputable fighter in this gym, having once won ten consecutive matches. Though he may not be the strongest, his skills were definitely on the upper level. To actually defeat him would pose quite the challenge. “Miss Naiswell, the next one up is no normal boxer. Do you have any words for me?”Liam Stone turned to watch Rosalie Naiswell attentively.Rosalie’s face went as pale as a sheet. She clenched her teeth and replied, “Liam Stone, your subordinate has just lost a match…”“That’s right, one of my men just lost. But since I have to let you enjoy a good show, I can’t let you down.” Liam Stone grinned. “How about this? If you want to say stop, you should do it at the right time. Or else, I can’t guarantee what will happen…” He picked up his phone and made a call. “Find a better one. This man is someone our VIP friends here know, so b

    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

    Harvey's expression became cold as he watched Mrs. Hoffman. He was completely done with her.Mrs. Hoffman bit her lip and stared at Hale for a long time. "You're right! The one who sold you out is me. I sold your identity to other people, too. I'm also the one that almost got you killed. When I heard about the Chapter of Ascension in the morning, I was also the one who sent the message!"Hale's expression was one of bitterness and grief. He gritted his teeth and asked coldly, "Why?""Why?" Mrs. Hoffman scoffed, a hint of disdain on her face. "Why do you think I did this? Fine, I'll tell you. It's easy—after marrying you for so many years, I've never had a life of peace! We're either living in the streets or hiding! I didn't ask for a wealthy life. I just want a normal and peaceful life like any other ordinary woman! But I can't see us ever having that life! "If that's the case, why can't I gamble everything away? Why can't I sell you in exchange for wealth so I can have an e

    Hale let out a bitter cry with a sorrowful expression. How could anyone expose that the person who slept next to them would be the one to stab them in the back?Hale whispered, "I simply didn't want that person to be you. You have been with me for so many years and have suffered so much. I've already treated you as my only family. If family like you betrayed me, it would do nothing but make me suffer."That was why I arranged such a test. I was hoping that Mr. Harvey would betray me once he knew who I really was and that I really did have the Chapter of Ascension. That way, I could continue executing my plans in peace."I didn't expect him to be completely uninterested in the Chapter of Ascension. Instead, you were the one who betrayed me again. It also meant that the one who turned me to Camellia and let her trace me was you…"Harvey didn't pin any blame on Hale after hearing what had happened. After giving it a thought, he said, "Normally speaking, we've just met for the first

    "You… Hale! How…" Mrs. Hoffman crawled back up, her mind going black for a moment. She quickly pulled out her phone, about to make a call. Because she was too nervous, she kept on pressing the wrong numbers. She couldn't make that call.Harvey didn't say anything as he looked at this scene calmly.Meanwhile, Hale's expression began to change. There was a hint of sorrow in his eyes as he looked at the woman he loved. "Honey… Don't tell me that despite Mr. Harvey having no interest in the Chapter of Ascension, you let someone else get it instead? In short, you're the one that betrayed me… And has been betraying me…"A tear of blood formed from the corner of Hale's eyes as he spoke.Mrs. Hoffman, who was still trying to make that call, shuddered as she turned and looked at the man whom she had accompanied for many years.At the same time, someone pushed open the door. It was Clarion. He quickly walked into the room and leaned in next to Harvey, whispering, "Something happened
