Chapter 2812

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Vince seemed a little confused when he looked at the woman.

Queenie had no intention to join the others. Instead, she waited for the crowd to disperse before coming down from the ship.

Vince narrowed his eyes at Queenie for a short while before taking a step forward. He flashed her a warm smile.

“Welcome back, Queenie.”

“We’ll be treating Julian to dinner. You coming?”

Queenie glanced at Vince, curiosity evident in her eyes. She was different compared to Julian. Before she left prison, she already knew the reason she was let out.

She was here to fight Vince.

Vince must’ve gotten word as well.

Despite these circumstances, Vince was still so polite toward her. She was puzzled, to say the least.

“Vince, you should know why I’m back at such a crucial time.”

“Are you sure you want to invite me to a meal?”

Queenie smiled at him.

Vince’s smile froze. Naturally, he knew why she was released at such an important moment.

Even if he didn’t get the news, he would’ve guessed it anyway.

    “You’re right, Big Brother. I’ve always regretted being a woman.”“But now, it’s different.”Queenie smirked.“So what if I’m a man?”“So what if I’m not?”“They say that men can achieve their ambitions anywhere!”“But some people also say…”“That women are no less than men!”“I’ve waited for so long!”“It’s been so many years!”“All I want is a chance…”“For me to fight!”“I’m not here to prove how strong I am…”“I’m here to tell everyone that I can do great things even though I’m a woman!”Harvey couldn’t help but clap his hands.“Impressive. As expected of the lord’s daughter.”“No wonder Vince still tried to make peace with you even though he knew it was impossible.”“He even tried to bait you with the position of the lady of the family.”“He knew a woman like you wouldn’t be tempted by money or simply benefits. What you want is absolute authority.”“For the Yorks of Hong Kong, you can only achieve this by being the lord or the lady of the family.”“And if he ca

    Queenie narrowed her eyes at Harvey, staring for a short while. She could tell that he didn’t want anything to do with her at all.She let out a cold snort.“Alright. I’m done scaring you,” she scoffed.“My father already told me what I need to do when I get out.”“He wanted me to gain total control of Loxus Consortium, the company working under the Yorks of Hong Kong before Grandma York’s birthday.”“I only have a chance to fight Vince if I get it in my hands.”“Do your best. I’ll make sure to help in any way I can,” Harvey said, flashing her a smile. At the same time, Harvey told Edwin to look up the location of the company before sending Queenie there.After that, Harvey would be able to leave.Queenie picked up the laptop beside her and checked her emails.“My father transferred all of his shares from Loxus Consortium under my name.”“It’s exactly thirty percent.”“But when he signed the agreement, I gave a suggestion.”“I wanted half of it to be under your name.”“

    Bang!“What a move!”“They’re trying to remove my source of authority, you say?”An unspeakable wretched look could be seen on Vince’s face.“For so many years, the company belonged to the head house…”“When did some random outsiders get the right to show off in our own turf?!”“Do they think we’re just a bunch of cowards?!”…After having a simple meal with Julian and sending him back home, Vince hastily made his way to his office building at Victoria Harbor.He walked in, a gloomy look on his face. As he entered, he saw Lexie in her gown, gracefully playing the piano.She was playing the ninth opus of Nocturnes, a score resembling unending murderous intent and vengeance.Vince was in no mood to enjoy the masterpiece. He instantly walked forward and slammed his hands at the piano keys, ruining the moment.“Do you know what time it is, Auntie?! Yet, you’re still in the mood to play piano!”“You said Julian had to be kept in prison, right?!”“Not only is he out, but I also

    The Toyota Prado stopped in front of the Loxus Consortium.Queenie made a few calls on the road for someone to send a complete set of uniform and makeup in a van.Stepping out of the van half an hour later, she had turned into quite the delicate beauty.With her steadfast way of doing things, she wouldn’t waste a single second so she could rise to power.After making a few more phone calls, she realized that her position of the executive CEO wasn’t low at all. Out of the entire company, she would be considered as the second-in-command.But personnel and financial authority was still being governed by the head of the head house, Cory York.Queenie was in charge of marketing.No one would dare oppose Cory’s decision, either. After all, he was the true holder of the Loxus Consortium; he was the chairman and the CEO of the company.Cory had displayed enough respect to assign Queenie as the executive CEO after one phone call from Marcel.Queenie knew full well that some things just

    Harvey didn’t say a single word. He only stood behind Queenie quietly, as if he was her bodyguard.He wanted to see how this so-called capable woman would control the people around her.Queenie ignored the crowd’s gaze completely and took the CEO’s seat.“My name is Queenie York. I’m sure you know who I am, so I’ll cut to the chase.”“I hosted this meeting today to tell you all this: the lord himself has appointed me to be in this position.“Everyone here has a deep connection with the Yorks of Hong Kong.”“I hope we’ll all help each other and stick together at any cost.”“I, Queenie, will never treat any of you poorly.”“Another thing. Let me introduce you all to another person, Harvey York.”“He has no position within the company. He’s just a consultant.”“But his words are my own.”“His requests are the same as mine!”“If you go against him, you go against me.”“Understood?!”Queenie’s resolve had taken control of the crowd. Not only did she reveal her greatest support

    The man in the Givenchy suit put on an intimidating expression.“If you can’t take responsibility for all this, then I’m afraid your position might not stay yours for long.”“This kept man here won’t survive for much longer, either!”Harvey glanced at the man in the Givenchy suit, curious. What a fierce man!He was already disrespecting Queenie on her very first meeting!Was he not scared of dying in the hands of the Yorks?After all, Queenie’s identity was still ever present. That was a fact no one could ignore.After flipping through the files, Harvey finally figured out who the man was. His name was Dante Castro, and he was the marketing manager of the company.At the same time, he had quite an interesting identity. He was said to be the son of Cory’s butler, and was raised under his wing. He was considered to be Cory’s trusted subordinate as well.Even Vince would have to be polite to him.With this identity, it was only natural for Dante to be this fearless when facing t

    At Dante’s words, the higher ups in the room had playful smiles on their faces.They knew he was using the opportunity to bring Queenie down.After all, everyone knew that Ishikawa Corporation had the best selling electronic appliances.Because of its cheap price, the products were sold all over the entire world.As they were trying to get into Country H’s market, they were looking for a local distributor.Even Cory’s secretary wasn’t good enough to make a deal.Since that was the case, then surely Dante had no chance to gain the corporation’s favor.Even if he did, the Ishikawa Corporation wouldn’t use such a poor excuse to cancel the deal.After Queenie took position, it would be plausible to make her take the blame instead.After all, who else could take the blame? She had quite a high status, after all.The higher ups were all on the same side as Dante.Nobody would stand up for Queenie.Everyone looked at Queenie with faint smiles, waiting to see how she would deal wit

    Bang!Before Queenie could say anything, Harvey picked up an ashtray and slammed it furiously on the table.The loud bang froze the crowd completely. Even the higher ups who were running their mouths couldn’t help but go silent.After all, this was a meeting room. Everyone would usually only run their mouths, but nobody expected that someone would dare threaten the whole room by smashing an ashtray.Before the higher ups could react, Harvey exclaimed coldly, “Bunch of useless idiots!”“Every single one of you are higher ups of the company, but you can’t even get a deal from a small company from the Island Nations?”“The company kept you here for this crucial moment, but what happened? None of you can even complete such a simple task!”“You idiots!”“You people dress up all nice, filled to the brim with luxury items…”“I’m sure you’re well-respected by many.”“And, yet! Not only do you not care about your own company, but you’re also pushing blame when you’re the most needed!”

    Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil

    Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai

    Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas

    "Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi

    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
