Harvey York calmly smiled as he shrugged.“It’s just a simple deal with the Ishikawa Corporation anyway. At the end of the day, it’s only a few hundred million dollars per annum. Is there even a need to cause such a huge uproar for this money?”Dante Castro cackled.“Just a simple deal, you say?“Only a few hundred million dollars per annum?“How shameless can you get, Harvey?!”Even Dante was chuckling in anger at this very moment.A few female higher-ups were covering their mouths to hide their snickers. In their eyes, Harvey was just some ignorant fool.“Are you serious, Harvey?”“If things are really that simple for you, then bring the contract here already!”“You’ll probably get many more letters from lawyers than contracts!”“Young Master Ishikawa won’t let you go that easily for hitting one of his subordinates!”The higher-ups glared disdainfully at Harvey. In their eyes, Harvey was just another clown.Harvey took a peek at his Rolex on his wrist and then calmly sai
Everyone had the same thought at that moment. Taichi Ishikawa was here to force the Loxus Consortium so he could benefit from the situation.If not, why would he come all the way here after being thoroughly disrespected?Cory York managed to regain his composure before thinking of a way to deal with Taichi.“Miss Ishikawa, Young Master Ishikawa, this way please!”When Cory and the others stood up, planning to welcome the arrival of Taichi and the others, the front desk lady had already brought a dozen people to the meeting room.The person in front was an Islander-looking woman wearing an elegant suit.Her face showed a professional smile as she swiftly followed the front desk lady.The person behind her was none other than Taichi, who was showing utter despair.Secretary Akina, who still had a few palm prints on her face, was here with the assistants, the legal department, bodyguards, and other people…Harvey York curiously glanced at the woman and immediately recognized her
Cory York was showing an enthusiastic look.“If it’s something you need help with, we’ll definitely lend you a hand if it is within our power.“After all, there’s nothing I can’t handle in Hong Kong or Las Vegas!“Even if the people from Loxus Consortium managed to offend the honorable Ishikawa family, I’ll be sure to give you a fair statement if you say the word.”Naturally, Cory still thought that Yukiko Ishikawa dragged this many people with her so she could ask him for a fair statement.If not, with Yukiko’s status, why would she even come here all the way from Mordu?She even came in such a hurry. She was clearly looking for trouble.As for the polite attitude, Cory also felt it was normal.After all, peaceful measures should be used before war.The people from the Island Nations had been known as the country of etiquette. Even if they bump into the person who slaughtered their entire family, they would still bow properly before swinging their blade.It seemed normal for
Cory York slightly froze before forcing out a smile.“Miss Ishikawa, you must’ve been mistaken.“The young lord of the family is Vince York. It’s not Harvey York.”The meaning of those words was simple. Harvey was not even from the Yorks of Hong Kong, and there was no need to be this polite toward him.Cory then walked toward Taichi Ishikawa while showing a warm smile.“I heard about what transpired yesterday, Young Master Ishikawa.“This is no big deal. It’s all in the past now. Please stand up.”He then tried to lift Taichi off the ground.Taichi completely ignored him and kept slapping himself as he kneeled.“I’m moved by your generosity, Chairman York, but we have to admit to our faults! This is the rule of the Ishikawa family!“We came here today to ask for Sir York’s forgiveness.”Yukiko ignored Cory and kept bowing in front of Harvey.It was apparent that Cory had no say in the situation, and only Harvey did, but she did not say it out loud.Cory’s expression slight
Cory York and the board of directors squinted their eyes.Everyone knew that Harvey York was making an example out of the Islanders.Queenie York’s consultant was trampling them all over like a bunch of dead dogs.Who else would dare to go against Queenie in the future?Simply put, Queenie’s position as the executive CEO would be solidified after this incident.“Thank Sir York properly and change your ways.”Yukiko Ishikawa glanced at Taichi Ishikawa while she was constantly bowing.“If it weren’t for Sir York, you would’ve been thrown to the fishes this afternoon.“Be grateful!”Everyone gasped after hearing Yukiko’s calm words.‘The Islanders sure are ruthless! Not only are they merciless toward their enemies, but they also have no pity toward their own!’Harvey glanced at Yukiko while filled with interest before raising his caution.He knew if he did not manage to suppress Yukiko, he would have been the one to kneel and break his hand, and not Taichi.Due to Yukiko's ar
While the others only saw profit, Harvey York saw through Yukiko Ishikawa’s evil plans hidden underneath her generosity.Simply put, if Harvey were to sign the contract, he would turn into a menace within the entire company, maybe even to the Yorks of Hong Kong too!He would need to fight them all to the death if that were the case!Yukiko understood how powerful Harvey was. Since the Yorks of Hong Kong was one of the five hidden families, they would also have immense strength.If both sides were to fight each other to the death, Country H’s entire upper social circle would also be dragged into it.Trading three years’ worth of an exclusive deal with utter chaos between Harvey and the Yorks of Hong Kong…For the Islanders, who only wished for the people of Country H to suffer, this was an extremely lucrative deal.Without a second thought, Harvey reached out and raised Yukiko’s exquisite jaw with a warm smile.“Three whole years of that just isn’t enough, Miss Ishikawa.“I hav
With Queenie York’s signature on the contract, the Ishikawa Corporation incident came to a close.Queenie’s position within the company and the family was set in stone.After seeing Yukiko Ishikawa and the others stumble out of the venue, Harvey York calmly turned toward Dante Castro.Dante frantically changed his expression and tried to back off.“You remember the deal we made yesterday, Manager Castro?” asked Harvey calmly.“You’re supposed to leave the company if I get the contract, right?“So, when are you planning to do that?”The higher-ups looked at each other after hearing Harvey’s words.Nobody thought that Harvey would bring that up at this point.Dante’s face turned pale.“I… I… I…” he muttered.“Since you have a deal with Consultant York, you should leave then.“Since you’ve worked so hard for the Loxus Consortium for so many years, I’ll give you a year’s worth of salary as severance pay! Don’t you dare show up in front of me ever again!“Come! Give him the mon
“You…”Cory York was boiling with anger before abruptly leaving while coldly glaring at Harvey York.Harvey chuckled. Cory had lost his reputation within the company.It would only be a matter of time before Queenie York took over his place.***“That b*stard!”Inside the office building at Victoria Harbor, Cory still could not manage to calm himself down.The teacup in his hand trembled vigorously. Apparently, he was still enraged.His gaze then shifted toward Vince York before he coldly exclaimed, “I told you so many times already, Vince! Don’t go for Fourth Brother’s people willy-nilly, especially Selena Judd!“Fourth Brother treasures that woman the most!“Whatever you do, don’t ever go against her!“But what happened? Not only did you provoke her, you even got Fourth Brother angry! Now he’s releasing her exceptional daughter just to fight you!“What are you planning to do?!“It’s only five days before the damn birthday banquet!“I can’t believe you got into this big
