At that moment, Senior Zimmer, who was seated on the seat of honor, had finished reading the contract. He even took out the magnifying glass and looked closely at the seal. After a short while, he said, “Don’t argue anymore. This contract is real indeed. However, what Zack said is right. This contract seems not to be drafted up at the last minute. It seems like it was drafted up yesterday.”“Certainly, Mandy has her own credits since she went there in the first place. But Zack was willing to endure the humiliation for Zimmers yesterday. His contribution is much more significant.” Hearing that, Zack took a glance at Mandy arrogantly. He then bowed toward Senior Zimmer and said, “Grandpa, as one of the Zimmers, I’ll definitely be quite willing to undergo various ordeals for the Zimmers. So what if I’m being humiliated? If I need to be beaten up just so that the Zimmers could earn money, I’m more than willing to do so!”“Grandpa, I think that this new CEO is aware of the value of Zimm
At first, Yvonne was sending Harvey home in her Bentley. But there was a traffic jam on the way. Hence, Harvey took his electric bike out of the trunk to ride home. But his electric bike broke down, and he fell into the drain. Now he was quite pathetic and awkward. Harvey was about to take a bath and have a change of clothes. But Cecilia had seen him. She laughed coldly and said, “The person appeared as soon as we talked about him. Here comes the good-for-nothing! Harvey, did you fall into the toilet? You stink!” Harvey did not want to be bothered by her. He put the big plastic bag in his hand at the corner of the living room and was going to take a bath. “Harvey, how bold of you to come home? Do you think that it’s a hotel here? Do you think that you can come and leave at your own wishes?” At that moment, Lilian heard the noise. When she came out, her facial expression was unpleasant. ‘If it’s not because of this good-for-nothing, how could Mandy’s significant contribution b
“That’s right!” Cecilia quickly echoed what the other said. “It’s quite possible that Harvey would do such a humiliating thing. He’s a good-for-nothing while Don is a bankrupt man. It’s quite possible that the two of them would conspire with each other. If not, how do we explain the situation in which Harvey is safe and fine now?” “Cecilia! Angel! That’s enough!” At last, Harvey could not hold himself back anymore. He stepped forward and looked at the two women in front of him condescendingly. Undeniably, both Cecilia and Angel were charming. One of them was sexy and attractive, while the other was cute and lovely. Even though they appeared cold and aloof now, they were still quite charming and adorable. Noticing that Harvey was looking at her, Cecilia was filled with disgust. ‘This useless man! How bold of him to have his eyes on his wife’s best friend! He’s such a b*stard!’ “I remember that I’ve told you before. My wife’s company is in need of eight hundred thousand dollars.
Both Mandy’s best friends—Cecilia and Angel, were so frightened that their legs became shaky. They saw eight hundred thousand dollars in front of them. The strong impact which the scene provided was rather unimaginable. “My good daughters, can you address me as your father now?” Harvey said while clapping his hands and smiling faintly. At that moment, Cecilia took a deep breath. She recovered her wits from the great astonishment just now. She then sized Harvey up, and she said contemptuously, “Harvey, don’t assume that I’m unaware of it. It’s Mandy who gave you your pocket money during these three years. You’re such a useless man. How is it possible that you’re able to have eight hundred thousand dollars? I’m afraid that you didn’t get them through proper and legal means.” Hearing that, Mandy frowned slightly too. She grabbed Harvey’s hand unconsciously and dragged him into the bedroom. Harvey was puzzled. It was the first time Mandy grabbed his hand out of her own initiative
“He can’t take that. Will that really happen since you said so? Who the hell do you think you are? Are you the CEO of York Enterprise? Do you think that you’re their relative since you share the same surname as them? There are so many people who have the surname of Marshall. So does it make them the same family?” Lilian was so angry about so many things, and she was filled with deep wrath. Harvey was about to say something more. Mandy had now come out of the bedroom. She then said, “Mom, Harvey wasn’t there today. We really couldn’t blame him. It’s Zack. He was too shameless. Besides, Harvey had helped me borrow the eight hundred thousand dollars, and he had helped resolve the emergency at hand. Could you please…” “What is that? To treat him better? Look at his shabby appearance! He doesn’t look like a prince even if he dresses himself up nicely!” Lilian scolded him. She had now forgotten to mention the divorce. “Hurry up and go cook now! I’m warning you. If you want to stay in our
Yvonne had reached the office for a long time now. She wore a rather transparent white suit that day. When she saw Harvey entering the office, she soon served him a cup of tea. She then said, “CEO, the Zimmers had sent a person called Zack over today to deliver the contract to us. Do you want to take a look at it?” “No need.” Harvey did not even look up. “Ask him to get lost. If he dares to step into my company in the future, beat him up and break his legs!” “Alright!” Yvonne did not dare to ask any more about that. It was because Mr. York was always firm in his decision. It was also not the first day she worked for him. ***In the reception room. Zack appeared quite gloomy. He felt quite unlucky when he bumped into Harvey just now. Now York Enterprise did not even bother about him, and he was left there for almost half an hour now. He was slightly annoyed and was about to get angry. “Is anybody there?” He shouted. After a short while, a receptionist came to him and said sof
Zack appeared like he had seen through the lie. “That’s right! It must be so. There are no other possibilities. If not, how could we explain the fact that their contract looks like a real one? But they’re so stupid. It didn’t occur to them that their lies would be exposed so soon…” “Yes! That might be the case here. Senior Zimmer, call them home, and we’ll get to the bottom of it then.” “That’s true! We’ve known about it for a long time now that the live-in son-in-law is just a useless man. Unexpectedly, he went and became a thief. Besides, how could Mandy bring home a fake contract? It’s a great humiliation for the Zimmers!” The people from the Zimmers echoed what the others said loudly. ‘Mandy went too far. It’s an investment with an amount of fifty million dollars. A lot of us can gain many benefits and enjoy a luxurious life because of that. How bold of her to take a fake contract and fool us with that! She deserves to be punished severely!’ Senior Zimmer had no facial expr
‘How could such a useless person like him afford to buy literally any car in this automotive city?’ “Sir, how about this? Just look at your disposition. I think this car is suitable for you.” The beautiful sales girl looked at Harvey condescendingly. She specifically pointed at a Porsche Panamera not far away, smiled faintly, and said, “How about this? You can drive this car out. If no woman jumps into your car within a distance of a thousand feet, you may need to think whether you look too frightening.” Harvey was amused. He walked over there and took a few glances at the car. He then said, “It’s not bad. But it’s been so long since I last drove a car. Why don’t you arrange for a test drive? If it’s suitable, I’ll take this one.” “Test driver? For you?”The beautiful sales girl indeed broke into laughter. It never occurred to her that someone could be so shameless as him. How could he be so bold and ask for a test drive of a car which cost around four hundred thousand dollars?
Just when Harvey did not know how to respond, Vaida suddenly walked into the cockpit from behind. First, she glared at Harvey, then responded with Ellena's solemn voice. "It's done."When the person heard this voice, it was obvious that the man heaved a sigh of relief. "Land the plane on the last runway near the edge, then retreat immediately. Remember, don't leave any unfinished business behind. Our conversation is over." Then, the tone became engaged before it was completely cut off.Meanwhile, Harvey quickly took control of the plane's yoke and landed the plane successfully on the runway. The plane landed successfully. However, with one look outside, he suddenly frowned and said, "Something's not right. Go!"Then, Harvey dragged Vaida along with him and ran to the plane's emergency door. He opened the door and immediately jumped out.At this time, all the passengers in the first-class cabin finally got hold of themselves and started screaming and yelling. Instantaneously, the en
All the other passengers could only watch the sudden turn of events with mouths agape. It was as if they could not believe just how terrifying Vaida was. Even Harvey narrowed his eyes. He already knew that Vaida was a powerful martial artist and one that was close to losing control. But only now did he realize that the woman was trained in the legendary Basilisk Palm.It was a unique martial art from the tribes. While it was not exceptionally powerful, it was extremely venomous. Just one strike could make an elite like Ellena from Servitas lose power and control of her body, explaining just how terrifying this technique was.Before Harvey could say anything, Vaida had already picked up the revolver on the ground and immediately fired at her arms and legs. Then, she dislocated Ellena's jaw, making sure that Ellena could not kill herself no matter what.Vaida's directness made Ellena's eyes filled with rage. She could not believe that she still lost despite being in a situation wher
Ellena's expression was one of enjoyment and glee when she saw Vaida kicked Harvey, and even took a few slaps from her.Ellena finally felt she had her revenge after the humiliation she suffered at the Fosters a few days ago. The worse Harvey's condition, the happier she was.Harvey finally managed to get a hold of himself and stopped Vaida, saying in a cold voice. "Are you stupid? The person you should be dealing with is the criminal that's trying to kill you and not me, a victim!""Victim? To all of us, you're the real criminal!" Vaida roared. "I'm just heading home to visit family! Why do I have to be on the same flight as you? You're going to get us all killed! You're some representative, right? Aren't you supposed to fight for the people? Why don't you just die already? If you don't, how can you face us?"Vaida was looking at Harvey, gritting her teeth. It was obvious that if looks could kill, Harvey would have already died countless times. All the passengers were also riled u
"All you need to do is to sever your own tendons right before me and then jump off the plane. I guarantee that I will get all these people landed safely," answered Ellena with a sneer. "If you can't do it, it's fine. One hour will slowly pass by. Let's waste each other's time. You can taste your regrets, I suppose. Regretting the fact that you instigated me in the first place…"Ellena's words at this point sounded so calm, as if she had truly accepted her inevitable death. All the passengers' expressions turned pale when they saw her speak with such expression. Vaida's face was so pale that she looked like a ghost."Please, no, ma'am! We did nothing to you! Why must you kill us too?""That's right! We can give you anything we have! Do you want money? Do you want properties? We have them all! But please spare us!""It's not that simple trying to kill him with a revolver. It only looks easy," Ellena said with a sigh. "This is the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance.
Harvey nodded at Ellena. "True. That's my mistake. But I'm curious: why are you all so obsessed with trying to kill me? Is it because I'm here to take over the Three Halls? Or is it because I'm the representative? Or is it because I humiliated Grand City at the Forbidden Wasteland? Or maybe it's because I'm going to help Sienna break her engagement?"Then, Ellena replied coldly, "Why are you so curious? Does it even benefit you? I don't want you to die knowing why. When you die, the more clueless you are, the happier it will make me."Harvey nodded. "I can understand that you want to kill me. But the problem is, so many innocent people are involved. Why must you involve them as well? Not to mention, if you do this, it'll not bring you any praise. It will most likely sully your reputation instead. Do you want yourself to be remembered with a tarnished reputation that much?"After hearing Harvey's words, Ellena looked at all the passengers and said, "Whether my reputation is good or b
Ellena smiled when she saw she had the entire cabin under her control. "This is connected to my heart. Whether my heart stopped or the timer reached zero, it would explode. That's why I believe you should be able to chat with me while remaining calm, right?"All the passengers in the first-class cabin felt that they would faint soon after hearing what Ellena said. Vaida, who was the calmest among them, also narrowed her eyes. They were on a plane. And then, there was a timed bomb that was connected to her heart. This was a puzzle with no clear answer.Not to mention, Ellena was armed with a revolver and maintained a safe distance between Vaida and Harvey. It was as if she could pull the trigger at any time.Fortunately, there was enough distance between the first-class and economy-class cabins. Otherwise, just the gun alone was enough to make all the passengers in the plane lose their minds.Harvey sighed. He knew Ellena was using the hundreds of innocent lives on this plane to bla
"I'm sorry, but it really wasn't intentional…" Harvey apologized to Vaida. Just as he was going to explain himself, he heard a creak. The door leading to the cockpit that was supposed to be shut tight was left open, with the scent of blood coming from inside.Before Harvey and Vaida could react, a woman in a pilot uniform walked over with a calm expression. Although her uniform was dotted with blood spatters, her aura and haughtiness in her eyes remained intense.Then, she removed her face mask and smirked at Harvey. "Good morning, Mr. Representative. We meet again…"Harvey's eyes narrowed; he seemed mildly surprised.It was Ellena.Speak of the Devil…At the same time, Harvey also gave Ellena a better evaluation. Although it took her a lot of effort to escape by leaving behind a decoy, she was now right in front of him and greeting him out in the open. This not only proved how mad she was but also strengthened her confidence in cornering Harvey.Harvey looked at Ellena nonchala
Originally, Harvey thought that since they met each other thanks to Fate, he wanted to give some pointers to Vaida. However, from her attitude, Harvey could ascertain that she would not believe him no matter what he said. If that was the case, he didn't want to waste his time on someone who wasn't appreciative.The flight continued for about two hours. Their journey was only half done. Harvey stretched his back and sipped his sparkling water a few times. Then, he took out his tablet, connected to the plane's Wi-Fi, and checked his emails.Instantly, several emails were sent to his private email.Yvonne had already handled all kinds of business at Sky Corporation. She also mentioned receiving news that Sienna seemed to have gone to Grand City last night, but she could not confirm the veracity of that news.That piece of news was enough to make Harvey slightly frown.Another news story was that Rachel, whom Harvey had made arrangements for, had already arrived at Hyperborea. She was
Next morning.Harvey packed out a few outfits and then took a flight to Hyperborea. "I didn't expect the entrance to Grand City would be located on the peak of Hyperborea. From Wolsing, it would take around four hours, which meant I would arrive around noon. If everything goes well with the entry pass, I should be able to enter Grand City by two o'clock."Then, I will have to spend the whole afternoon taking over the three halls. After that, I need to help Sienna break her engagement… Wait, why did I even agree to help Sienna with the engagement? That way, doesn't it look like both of us have some secret relationship? Especially to the outsiders?" Harvey was speechless as he sat in his first-class flight seat.Typically speaking, he should not have gone to Grand City when there were so many unsettled things. But he had no choice but to come over when so many things were happening simultaneously.That being said, Harvey felt confident that Yvonne would handle all the matters in Wols
