“I didn’t think you’d care about me this much to get these prominent figures here!“It’s a shame that their identities and statuses are just too high.“You have no right to even have their company here either! This act is just completely out of place!“We can clearly tell these two are just here for show!“At least be honest about it! Just say the word if you can’t get anyone here!“There’s no need to pretend! Nobody knows just how many times you have to kneel for them even to come here!“You only asked for fifteen million dollars? Why not ask for at least 1.5 billion?Ellen Moreno raised her head with a disdainful glare.“Other than these two, I can guarantee nobody else will be coming to your store’s opening!“If there are any, I’ll eat up the sign right now!”Ellen then pointed at Harvey York’s sign with a playful expression.Noemi Moreno was starting to get a little irritated.“Ellen! You can’t just accuse Secretary Xavier and CEO Ray of that!“They’re just soft-hearte
Ellen Moreno looked prideful when she glared at Harvey York.To Ellen, Mr. Finley’s worth was immense compared to Yvonne Xavier and Ray Hart, after all.“Welcome, Mr. Finley! Thank you for gracing us with your visit!”Noemi Moreno and Ellen followed behind with gentle smiles and rising egos hidden in their hearts.After all, having connections with Mr. Finley was a symbol of one’s status in the city.“Oh, Grandma Cobb, CEO Moreno. Congratulations.Mr. Finley felt a little annoyed after having his path blocked off, but he still showed a gentle smile like a true gentleman.“Keep up the good work.”Grandma Cob and the others burst out laughing after hearing Mr. Finley’s words.“Thank you for your support! It really means a lot to us!”“Ellen! Eden! Quickly! Mr. Finley has a gift for us!” exclaimed Noemi quickly after seeing a gift box in his hands.“It’d be embarrassing for him to hold it for so long!”Ellen and Eden Cobb excitedly reached out for the gift box.After all, in
Even a person like Noemi Moreno, who could keep herself calm at any moment, instinctively trembled. She could feel immense pressure crushing her at this very moment.If the Silver Elixir actually had the chance to sell abroad, it would be an extremely lethal blow to the Cobb family.Grandma Cobb shivered. She also understood that fact very well.“We’ve been so respectful to you! Why would you go against us like this?!” screamed Grandma Cobb instinctively.“Go against you?Mr. Finley froze before showing a faint smile.“I have no interest in doing such a thing, Grandma Cobb.“Your grudge has nothing to do with me either.”After all, why would someone from the royal family even bother about them?In his eyes, the Cobb family simply had no right.“You never thought about that?Grandma Cobb’s tone became a whole lot fiercer.“You use your reputation and status to help those b*stards sell their stuff abroad! How is that not going against us?!“We should be the ones to have that
Mr. Finley then told one of his trusted subordinates to take some of the ointment that Harvey York and the others had prepared beforehand.Then, he smeared a thin layer of it on his wound.Everyone could clearly see the wound that was oozing blood healing up instantly!The swollen muscle caused by the wound also shrunk immediately!“Incredible! Truly marvelous!Mr. Finley burst out laughing.“I didn’t understand why the people from the military and police forces would just sign the petition for this previously!“This is life-saving for people like them!”Harvey calmly smiled. In reality, the product he gave Mr. Finley only had fifty percent of the original’s efficacy.The perfected product was obviously reserved for the people of Country H.After all, it took a lot of work to produce this.But even so, the Empire was still completely shocked that something like this even existed when they only believed in antibiotics.“You… You…”When Grandma Cobb saw Mr. Finley demonstrat
“Ah! So that was what happened! We also thought the ointment was something impressive!”“Mr. Finley’s a gentleman, no? He cares about his reputation above anything else! Why would he even do something like this?!”“He had to go against his principle exactly because of that! That’s what you call a gentleman’s spirit!”“This is bad! Mr. Finley’s standing up for a shameless man like this to put up a show just to return the favor! Who’s going to trust him after this?!”The crowd started gossiping after hearing the mother and daughter’s words. The disdainful glares toward Harvey were soon directed at Mr. Finley instantly.Grandma Cobb and the others started to feel relieved after hearing those words.Ellen Moreno even pointed at Harvey with her exquisite nose while showing an arrogant look like a pampered princess.“Enough pretending, Harvey!“Unless you show some real talent to be above Eden Cobb…“I won’t let you win using underhanded tactics like this!”In Ellen’s mind, Harvey
After all, from a certain standpoint, a prominent figure like Allen Olford had a higher status than Mr. Finley.Not only was Allen terrifyingly powerful, but his connections alone were also enough for people to fear him.It was said that even the leader of the organization, Chase Smith, respected him as well.Chase announced before that if he were to be assigned to the South Sea Martial Arts Alliance, or if anything bad were to happen to him…Allen would be taking his place!Simply put, he was already Chase’s successor!He had an incredibly bright future!Grandma Cobb’s and the others’ eyes lit up before they swarmed toward the convoy.“You’re doing so much for our family, CEO Moreno! Thank you for your support!”“We’ll remember this for the rest of our lives!”“Don’t you worry. Ellen will definitely become the lady of the family sooner or later!”Grandma Cobb showed her gratitude while she was stepping forward.She was dead set on Eden Cobb marrying Ellen Moreno, even if s
Noemi Moreno glanced at her daughter after sensing her deathly stare.“He may look all calm, Ellen…” she explained after letting out a light chuckle.“But he must be sweating bullets right now.“I bet the situation’s got him dumbfounded.“A small fry like him can only pretend at this point!”Eden Cobb nodded with a stern expression.“That’s right! These pretenders can do nothing but show off!”Ellen Moreno felt slightly relieved after hearing those words.That said, she still furiously glared at Harvey York, quietly hoping for him to roll around on the ground in sorrow.At this very moment, a middle-aged man with a red and chubby face strutted forward with a dozen people surrounding him.“Grandma Cobb! CEO Moreno! Hello!“Congratulations on your anniversary’s big hit!”The middle-aged man lightly nodded in front of Grandma Cobb as a greeting, as if his arrival was more than enough to pay respect to the Cobb family.“Vice Leader Olford is a busy man! He came all the way bac
“Oh? He isn’t here for the Cobb family?”Allen Olford squinted slightly, with a hint of rage showing in his eyes.Noemi Moreno smiled before whispering into Allen’s ear.Allen quickly understood the situation.Then, he looked at Harvey York’s side profile.Harvey’s face seemed quite familiar, but it did not ring a bell since he was still too far away.Allen showed a disdainful look on his face when he coldly chuckled.“How dare a country bumpkin from Country H challenge the Cobb family on their own turf?”Allen was getting irritated after realizing that Harvey and the others completely ignored him without showing some respect.Grandma Cobb coughed with a gloomy look before she said, “Vice Leader Olford! Our family has been quite unfortunate!“Not only did an ungrateful daughter of the family decide to cast us aside, she even had a kept man going against us!“I’m sorry you had to see this!“He even stole the Cobb family’s medicine formula and made a counterfeit out of it!
