“What?!”Cliff and Zarla gasped in shock when they saw Kellan’s chest.‘How is this possible?’Their expressions worsened in an instant.They knew that with Kellan’s attitude, he wouldn’t simply expose such a secret to Harvey!‘Maybe he is pretty capable after all…’Kellan had no intention to settle scores with the couple at all; he was filled with anxiety as he looked at Harvey.“This is it, Sir York! Why doesn’t it feel like anything?”“At first, I thought this was just some STD!”“It’d be better if it was that.”Harvey narrowed his eyes.“You’d be six feet under when they all converge at the same spot.”Kellan was confused.“So I’ve been experiencing all that for the past few days because of this?”“Your luck has been sucked dry because of The Haunt,” Harvey replied.“When it’s all empty, we’ll be having your funeral soon enough.”“Aaah!”Kellan jumped in fear after hearing Harvey’s words.He instinctively tried to wipe The Haunt off his body, but to no avail.Zar
“I really don’t have any medical skills, but I do know how to kill people,” Harvey replied calmly.“Do you want to try that?”“I can end your life with just a single needle.”Kellan trembled, then forced out a smile.“You’re funny, Sir York!”“I’m still waiting for you to save me…”Harvey couldn’t be bothered to spout any more nonsense. He quickly poked a hole in his finger and put a drop of his blood on Kellan’s forehead, heart, and around the red dots on the latter’s chest.Soon after, The Haunt started to dissipate…“It’s gone! It’s really gone!”Kellan’s subordinates could clearly tell that the red dots were slowly fading before vanishing completely.Kellan didn’t know what Harvey was doing at first…However, he could feel his body being unshackled; he felt extremely refreshed.Cliff was completely shocked by the sight.He thought Harvey was just putting up a front, so he never expected that it was him who was being narrow-minded.“This is impressive, Sir York!”“You
Cliff’s eyes twitched slightly.“How did you know all this?”“Huh?”Zarla froze.She knew her husband would never go back to visit his ancestors’ graves, but she didn’t know that it was because of this.“It’s simple. You’re a strong man, but that’s all there is to it. I can’t sense your ancestors’ luck protecting you.”“If it wasn’t for your strong will, you would’ve died quite a few times already.”“Think about this. You’ve gone through a lot of near-death situations ever since your son was born, haven't you?”Cliff was in shock after hearing Harvey’s words.“You really are impressive! No wonder CEO Ruiz looks up to you that much,” Cliff exclaimed.“You’re right. I’ve escaped death quite a few times already! I was heavily injured every single time, but I managed to survive.”“That said, doesn’t this mean that I’m just lucky?”“Those who survive a catastrophe will have good fortune, no?”Harvey smiled faintly in response.“I don’t know about that, but…”“I do know that t
At nine o’clock in the evening, Harvey left the San Francisco Clubhouse after having his meal. Then, he headed back to the Zimmer family’s villa.After working for an entire day, he didn’t want to bump into Lilian and have another big fight with her. Thus, he returned to his room as quietly as possible.But before he could open the door, he heard a gasp coming from Mandy’s room.Surprised, Harvey pushed the door to see what happened inside.Immediately, a refreshing scent wafted over.Mandy must’ve just gotten out of the shower. A towel as white as snow covered only the important parts of her body, revealing a pair of slender legs. Harvey’s eyes twitched at the sight.He had seen quite a lot of beautiful women, and every single one of them was unique in their own way…Yet, Mandy was still the only one who could make his heart skip a beat.He could feel his breath getting hotter at this very moment.He quickly calmed himself down and quickly looked away.“You’re back.”Mandy
Harvey sent her a small smile.“It’s fine. I saved his life, so he’s the one who owes me.”Harvey then changed the subject quickly.“Right, why is there a problem with your branch’s funds now?”“Why didn’t you tell me that in the first place?”Harvey basically understood the situation.The ninth branch had no problems with its funds…However, Mandy’s rise had been quite dissatisfactory for the elders of the Jean family. They had been quietly pulling the strings in the family, and transferred the ninth branch’s funds away.The branch had been suffering quite a bit after that.Mandy tried her best to fix everything, but there was still no way to balance everything out.After she came to the Golden Sands to pick up the Jean family’s mess, the situation became a lot more pressuring than it should’ve been.Mandy had been attending events all over the place; she even gave the bank double the interest, but she still couldn’t manage to cough up three hundred million dollars in time.
Early in the following morning,Harvey got up from a bad sleep and was dragged into the car by Mandy.She started complaining about Harvey as soon as the two got in.They had already talked about Gabriel treating the family to a meal the day before…And yet, Harvey still got up so late.Harvey got more information about the situation after getting inside the car.Gabriel got lucky enough to be in charge of a multi-million-dollar project. Safe to say, his status rose because of this.His sister, Baylor Lee, had been doing extremely well in her work as well. Safe to say, this was a huge blessing to his family.Lilian and Simon wanted to go as well, but they asked Mandy to go in their stead since they had things to attend to.After hearing that Mandy was coming, Gabriel wanted Harvey to join as well, with the excuse that he wanted to give Harvey guidance.Harvey, however, knew full well that Gabriel wasn’t that kind-hearted.But he didn’t care. Since Mandy insisted, he didn’t min
“Of course, this all wouldn’t be possible without everyone sitting here!”“My husband and I are hosting this event specifically to thank you all.”The father had a righteous look on his face as he stood up.“Please eat your fill today, everyone!” he exclaimed after laughing loudly.“Just say the word if you need anything!”“We have as many 1982 Rieslings as you want!”Gabriel stood up pridefully as well.“Father, Mother! Everyone!”“Thank you all for coming for my sake!”“I will not forget this for the rest of my life!”“Here’s a toast!”He casually chugged a glass of alcohol down.“You and Baylor are so talented! Don’t forget about us when you two get stinking rich!”“Right! It’s impressive to have such amazing achievements at such a young age!”“An ordinary person wouldn’t be able to get a project from Evergreen Capital Group, after all!”“The Eclipse Studios is being backed up by the Patel family as well. Baylor’s impressive to get along with them!”“What outstanding
Mandy Zimmer’s expression changed slightly. She was about to speak up before Harvey York stopped her.He came here to see what Gabriel Lee had prepared for him anyway.It would be quite rude to stop him when the show just started.Gabriel’s parents looked over with disdainful glares.‘This is the live-in son-in-law who’s been ruining everything!‘My son would’ve gotten a second wife if it wasn’t for him! The Zimmer family’s assets would’ve been his too!“Oh? Isn’t this the legendary live-in son-in-law of the Zimmer family?“He seems pretty normal to me! Maybe he’s actually dumb or something!”“If that weren’t the case, he wouldn’t have bought some radish just to give it to his in-laws!”“How dare he claim that Gabriel’s gift is fake?!“Who does he think he is?!“Narcissist! Filth!”Obviously, Gabriel had already boasted about the entire situation just to fan the flames even harder.Avery Foster clearly would not bother to clarify the incident since she was on Gabriel’s sid
