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?
“Alright! Mr. Quinn, I’ll ask him to get lost immediately!” The supervisor nodded swiftly. She then turned around and stared at Harvey angrily. She then said, “Sir, please leave now. We don’t welcome you here. If you don’t know how to leave, we’ll ask the security guards to escort you out…” Harvey did not want to be bothered by her. He just took a step forward and stared at Mandy, who stood before him. “Harvey? Why are you here?” Mandy only recovered herself now. When she saw Harvey, her beautiful figure was seen trembling slightly. She was filled with both joy and awkwardness at that moment. Even she could not figure out why she had those kinds of feelings. She clearly felt quite superior in front of Harvey before. Now for some unknown reasons, she found Harvey quite pleasing to the eye. Most of the time, she felt quite lonely when she did not see him. The most important thing was, she felt quite awkward and worried when he saw her being with another man. She was afraid that
Mandy appeared awkward, for she did not know how to reply to that. But Angel looked at Kevin in confusion. Kevin smiled and said, “Angel, don’t you know, this live-in son-in-law came here today to buy a car? He has his eyes on the Porsche Panamera. Why don’t you help him pick the color?” Angel sighed and said, “Let’s forget about it. There are no green cars for the Porsche brand, so it’s hard to pick for him.” After she said that, she went over and glared at Harvey. She then said, “Loser! Don’t you see that Mandy is dating my cousin? If you have a tinge of self-awareness, just get lost immediately! Don’t you know that you’re quite an eyesore here?” Kevin laughed too when he heard that. At the same time, he glanced at Harvey. ‘This guy does lead a pathetic life. I heard that he even helped my cousin to wash her shoes. It’s a great shame for men!’ Harvey’s facial expression was slightly unpleasant. He knew for a fact that Angel had a sharp tongue. But it never occurred to him t
At that moment, Harvey did not even want to be bothered by Angel. He only laughed casually, looked at Kevin, and said, “At first, I do want to cooperate with you. But unfortunately, your behavior and manners here are really quite disappointing. I think that we can forget about cooperating.”Kevin broke into laughter. “You’re indeed quite amusing.” He then pointed at Harvey and said, “Do you even know what cooperation is? Have you read too many novels? Do you think that cooperation means buying a pathetic car? It seems like Mrs. Zimmer is not wrong in her perception of you. You’re truly a pathetic man who has such a high ego. You’re not much better than anyone when you boast about yourself.”“Let me be frank with you. If you’re really a man, hurry up and get lost. Don’t humiliate Mandy here. I couldn’t bear to see you like this anymore!” Kevin was filled with contempt. Angel, who stood beside them, was laughing ceaselessly now. ‘This live-in son-in-law has put great shame on men!”
Harvey York thought for a while and said, “I will go back later…”“Is anything the matter?” Mandy Zimmer was curious. Her husband—the live-in son-in-law had never gone out in the past three years. What matter could he have?Harvey thought for a while and said, “I’m going to work. What else could I do other than that?”“What kind of job?” Mandy was a little relieved. This useless husband was finally willing to make some progress after three years.Harvey shrugged and said, “I’m working as an assistant for the classmate who lent me the money. He returned to Niumhi recently. I came to help him buy a car just now.”Mandy suddenly realized and asked curiously, “What does he do? If he’s working in the construction industry, maybe he can collaborate with our family.”Mandy was a little anxious while speaking of this. She was afraid that Harvey would tell her that his classmate worked in the construction industry. After all, Mandy knew that she did not have any influence in the Zimmer fa
“Electric… electric bike?” Kevin spoke inadvertently. The corner of his eyes twitched, and a bad premonition surfaced within his heart.“Yeah, an electric bike. I initially wanted to send him there, but he rejected my offer.” Yvonne said, “When you meet Mr. York, remember to be polite. I have said a lot of good things for you this time. Then only he reconsidered investing in your automotive city. If you neglect him, I can’t help you.”Yvonne hung up the phone after saying this. She was still busy sorting out the documents.The beeping sound then came from the cell phone. However, Kevin felt the buzzing in his head at this moment.Mr. York, low-key, electric bike…Oh, sh*t! Could it be that it was him?Kevin was so scared that he was about to pee when this thought came to his mind. The next moment, he quickly ran to the lobby and pulled the little chief who had entertained Harvey just now. He said sternly, “Go, no matter what method you use, go and bring Mr. York back here!” The l
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
