The night view of Victoria Harbor was the most charming at ten o’clock at night.Lovers would walk through the streets and the alleys to witness the city’s ebb and flow.All kinds of gossip were spreading from high-class nightclubs and restaurants.Someone was trying to ruin Grandma York’s birthday banquet!The young lord risked everything to keep her safe, but as a result, sustained heavy injuries. At this point, Maria Hospital had already sent out three critical notices.What a kind man!What a touching story indeed!If the gossip were to keep spreading, Grandma York would probably feel horrible if she did not get Vince York to become the new lord of the family.Right when everyone was talking about the situation, the curtains of the plaza were suddenly pulled open.A group of well-dressed knights was seen walking toward the recently built stage.The tourists thought that there was a show coming up.“What big day is this?! Why is there a show coming up?!”“Is this a tour
Vince York’s appearance was not some hidden secret. Everyone could tell that it was him in the picture.After realizing that Vince was the scumbag who abandoned the fourth princess, everyone was shocked.Ever since ancient times, princesses have been paired with princes! This is just natural!The fourth princess instantly caught everyone’s attention.“Since everyone knows who this man is, it’ll be easier for me to explain!” she exclaimed.“I am here to take responsibility for what happened at the abandoned villa today!“I planned for everything just to deal with Vince!“I wanted to drag this scumbag down with me!“And yet, he still pretends all this has nothing to do with me!“I won’t let him get away with this scot-free!“Even if my reputation’s completely tarnished, I’ll make sure he suffers with me!“I’m telling you right now, Vince…“Since you dared to abandon me, I’ll assassinate you as many times as I want!“Just you wait!“Go!”The fourth princess turned around an
“Don’t you know you’re not supposed to get close to The Empire’s royal family?!“You can go for all the women with the best lineage that you want…“But this one’s just a half-blood! You have nothing to gain out of her!“Maybe she’s trying to get all the authority and power you hold!“How can you be this stupid, Vince York?! Why would you sleep with a woman like that…?“With your identity, you can have any woman you want… But why her of all people?“The worst part is that she’s as shameless as the people from The Empire!“She’s exposing your affair to the public!“How could she?!“How dare she?!“Now, everyone thinks you’re just some scumbag who casts women aside!“It wouldn’t do too much if this were to spread in the upper social circle, but if Grandma York catches wind about this…”Lexie York kept running her mouth as she was showing an utterly horrible expression. Her usual calm countenance was already gone.Only a woman could tell how damaging the incident would be to V
Everyone looked at each other.“Young Lord York, this is really precarious,” Quinton York said after stepping forward.“It doesn’t matter if it’s real or not.“Your reputation is at stake here.“At such a crucial moment, Lord York would probably use this against you if word spreads farther than it should.“You should immediately look for the people involved with the media at the plaza. Deal with every single one of them! Give them as much money as they want!“We’ll get ghostwriters to reshape your image online after that.“Better late than never…”Vince York took a deep breath. He did not want to lower his head to the likes of the media with his identity…But since things were already escalating to this point, he knew he had to swallow his own pride to save himself.Without a second thought, Vince took a deep breath.“If that’s the case, I’ll have to…”Ding!Matthew Flynn’s phone suddenly lit up.His expression instantly worsened after picking up the call.“Something’s w
It was said that the place was previously an uninhabitable burial ground. After all, the Yorks of Hong Kong was once in a state of ruin.After nearly a hundred years of work, this place was surrounded by tranquility and beautiful scenery. Waterfalls and pavilions could be seen around the place as well.Various architecture styles from Country H were gathered here. It was considered by some people as the direct counterpart of the Imperial Garden and had quite a prodigious reputation.The night view was exceptionally unparalleled throughout Hong Kong.It was a shame that Vince York and Lexie York had their minds preoccupied and had no intention of enjoying such an incredible view. They swiftly walked past many checkpoints without even slowing down.Even the two would need to verify their identities when they arrived inside the Palace of the Yorks, let alone the others.Safe to say that this was the safest place in both Hong Kong and Las Vegas.After walking through nine different
Vince couldn’t help but feel joy after seeing what happened.“I didn’t want to ask for your help at first, Grandmother…”“However, Queenie’s been using Fourth Uncle to join forces with The Empire’s fourth princess.”“Not only were they perpetrators of the abandoned villa incident, but they also got the fourth princess to accuse me of abandoning her…”“They hired ghostwriters to slander my name online, too.”“Social media platforms are waiting to get a scoop out of me!”“Queenie’s not letting me explain myself at all. She tarnished our family’s century-old reputation in just a single day!”“I have a way to fix it, but it’ll be too slow.”“I won’t be able to deal with it before your birthday. I couldn't ensure you have a peaceful banquet…”“That’s why I’m here now, to beg for your help.”“Please, Grandmother! Help me get through these trying times!”“I promise, after your birthday banquet…”“I’ll marry whoever you ask me to! I won’t cause any trouble ever again!”“When that
After hearing Grandma York’s words, Lexie and Vince’s expressions changed slightly.They always thought that Harvey and Queenie were the ones creating chaos.Upon further thought, they realized their constant string of failures started immediately after Marcel’s return.On the surface, it appeared as if Marcel had only released Queenie from prison and did nothing else afterwards. In the meantime, Queenie had been taking advantage of Vince constantly.There were also some things Harvey and Queenie did through Marcel’s orders.Lexie couldn’t help but grit her teeth.“I knew it! Harvey couldn’t possibly deal with Jason and the fourth princess all by himself!”“In the first place, that’s impossible!”“But if he has Fourth Brother’s support, then everything makes sense!”Naturally, Lexie knew just how much power Marcel possessed.Vince took a deep breath, and turned to Grandma York.“Grandmother, are you saying…?”Grandma York wanted Vince to take position as the lord of the f
“Lord York.”“Father.”When Lexie and Vince left the Palace of the Yorks, Harvey and Queenie arrived at the seaside villa.Selena was soundly asleep, while Marcel was barbecuing on the beach.Harvey and Queenie could hear a loud hiss from the oysters on the grill. A pleasant smell wafted in the air.Harvey casually grabbed an oyster before slurping it down.“Freshwater oyster from the Island Nations. This is pretty good stuff!” Harvey exclaimed, looking impressed.“The Island Nations aren’t all that good, but their food’s something else alright.”Marcel chuckled at Harvey’s actions.“An elite never underestimates the weak and has an objective opinion about everything.”“Just because you hate a country, doesn’t mean you’re allowed to have prejudice against it. But even if you admire a country, you shouldn’t be flattering it too much either.”“Only through an open view can you accomplish anything.”Harvey smiled at Marcel’s words before shifting his gaze toward Queenie.“Hea
