Inside the hotel’s restaurant.Mandy Zimmer’s expression was cold at the moment. The other people’s faces were also peculiar.Apparently, Mandy had just announced that their whole family would be attending Prince York’s welcoming banquet tomorrow.Meanwhile, all eyes eventually fell on Harvey York as he walked in.“Come here, everyone. Let’s guess how this guy got the invitation card? Did he steal or snatch it?”“Or did he buy it?”Brent Silva laughed when he heard the words. “I bet you don’t know about it. Although you can buy these kinds of invitation cards, most people have no means to buy them…”“Even if there is a way, the price of one piece is more than four hundred and sixty thousand dollars. If he wants to buy five pieces for his family, the minimum amount required will be 2.3 million dollars!”“Do they have so much money?”“They should, right? The diamond on Mandy’s finger is quite valuable, isn’t it?”“However, if this kind of thing is suddenly being sold, I’m afrai
Brent Silva shook his head while sighing, then turned around and left.“Sigh…”Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates also sighed.If the filth, Harvey York, did not go to Buckwood, the divorce between him and Mandy Zimmer would be set in stone.And Mandy could be married to Brent.The whole family would be filthy rich.But now…It was useless to say anything then!Brent walked in front of them, saying sigh-inducing speech like this had made them want to puke blood.***After the end of the banquet.“Everyone, let’s go to our new villa.“Us Zimmers should thoroughly chat, talk about the development in Buckwood and tomorrow’s banquet!“All of you have to listen, as it is beneficial to you all!“And Mr. Brent, I humbly invite you to come along as well.”Senior Zimmer started to arrange the meeting.Simon and Lilian looked at Senior Zimmer excitedly.Especially Simon, to be able to be in the Zimmer family’s inner circle has been his ambition for the longest time.He had hoped to
Mandy Zimmer had been reading up on some material for the whole night without uttering a word until the next morning.Even until the next night, Mandy did not complain, nor did she droop her face the whole time.The time of the banquet drew closer.Mandy could not sit still anymore and then stood up.“Harvey York, I trust you to the point I hinge all my bets on you.”“But how are you supposed to let me trust you?“Do you even have an invitation card?“I thought you had ideas to get at least a few.“You’ve been sleeping since last night!“You didn’t even walk out the front door, nor did you make a single phone call!“Let me ask you this, where are you even planning to get the invitation cards? Are they going to just fall out of the sky?”At that moment, Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates were already knocking on the door impatiently.“Harvey, what is going on?”“What did you even prepare?“Mandy had already talked big yesterday. If you can’t fulfill your promise, we won’t have
Senior Zimmer sighed.“I thought you’d at least have grown a little after a dozen years or so in Buckwood!“I did not think that you are as foolish as you were. I’m truly embarrassed to have a son like you!“I’d never think that you and your son-in-law are the same worthless sacks of trash!“The whole family, worthless sacks of trash!”“Pfft hahaha…”All the people from the Zimmer family present were laughing their heads off.Gazes of ridicule were directed toward Simon Zimmer.Simon wanted to find a hole on the road to stick his head in at that moment. He truly hated Harvey York.At that moment, he had thrown away his remaining dignity in front of the whole Zimmer family.Mandy Zimmer was looking at Harvey, disappointed.Simon and his family would not be able to show their faces anywhere anymore.As for Mandy and Harvey, they would have to break all ties between each other as well.“You dare to attend the evening banquet without invitation cards?“You’re joking.“Let me
But when Zack Zimmer thought about Harvey York standing not far from him, he could not falter. He was grinding on his teeth and quietly said, “Why don’t you try and touch me? Do you even know who I am?“The Zimmer family were the ones that invited Prince York to the banquet. He promised to come!“Would you dare cross the Zimmers like this? You’re just a bodyguard…”Slap!The person that looked like the captain hit Zack backhanded across his face and immediately made him unconscious.“If you don’t leave right now, don’t blame me for what happens next,” the captain said coldly.The Zimmers were trembling in their boots. They pulled Zack away, prepared to make a run for it.Not far away, Simon Zimmer saw that and felt strangely invigorated.“Harvey, you were right. They couldn’t get in.”Harvey smiled and held onto Mandy Zimmer’s hand.“Dad, mom. We should get in.”“Don’t! Are you not afraid of dying? Even the invitation cards from the Silvas aren’t enough to let the others in.
Simon Zimmer, Lilian Yates, Mandy Zimmer, and Xynthia Zimmer…They were all transfixed, unsure of how to feel about this.Not only did the personal bodyguards not check for their invitations, they even respectfully let them in into the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard?And the people waiting to make fun of them, including Zack Zimmer, were frozen.“How… Did they get in? How… Could this be possible?”Senior Zimmer was sluggish. He could not believe what he saw.Simon and Lilian looked back with faces full of content.They were rejoicing. Whatever it was that happened, they had already gotten in.Simon had stayed in Buckwood for many years. He knew how hard it was to even come here. He felt like he was dreaming at that moment.“It was that easy? My good son-in-law, how did you do it?”He even changed his pronouns at that moment.Before, Harvey York was only filth, a worthless sack of trash, junk of a person.But he called him his good son-in-law.They thought that the son-in-la
Simon Zimmer and the rest of the Zimmers’ faces turned as dark as night.They believed Brent Silva was able to do as he said.It would be a simple matter for him, what with the Silva family supporting him.One word from him, and the Zimmer family could get thrown out immediately.Mandy Zimmer shot Brent Silva a frown.“Mr. Silva, there have been no problems between us until this point. What do you want?”Brent Silva laughed and approached Mandy Zimmer, and then whispered into her ear with a low tone that only both of them could hear.“It should be an honor for you to have someone like me to come to you. Yet you chose not to divorce this filth?”“Mr. Silva, you’re shaming me!”“As long as you and your sister promise to spend the night with me, I won’t give you too much trouble. How’s that sound?”“I’ll even give you two a project to work on. Deal?”“You… You’re shameless!”How could Mandy Zimmer even accept an offer like that?With her pride, she would not give in, even if
“Get your invitations out already!” Brent Silva shouted, his tone aggressive.“We don’t need it.” Harvey York replied calmly.“Hahaha! Captain, did you hear that? They don’t even have one! He even said that they don’t need one!”Brent Silva laughed his heart out.“This live-in son-in-law does seem suspicious. Maybe he came in by climbing over the wall!”The captain however was still skeptical, and something seemed off to him.Yet because of his duty, he immediately let out an order to his subordinates.“Take these people to the security room. Find out what their deal is, then decide what to do with them!”Simon Zimmer and his family were frightened and horrified.If they were interrogated, they’d definitely be forced out of the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard!The rest of the Zimmer family might still be waiting outside.How embarrassing would that be for him and his family if they got kicked out just like that?Were that to happen, they wouldn’t know what to do.“Wait! Sist
"A lawyer?" Garrick scoffed. "Forget about a lawyer, it's pointless even if you find a wizard! I've already read your information. The CEO of Sky Corporation? Maybe in other cities, the CEO of a public company deserves some respect, but don't forget that this is Wolsing, the country's seat of power! There are plenty of CEOs walking around here!"When you're in Wolsing, it doesn't matter who you are, or what kind of special identity you have. Those who commit crimes here will be punished! You won't be given any special treatment!"Garrick then looked at Harvey as if he had an advantage over him. "Confess the crimes you've committed! That way, I can grant you some leeway. Otherwise, you'll suffer a terrible death!"Harvey merely looked at Garrick briefly and said, "You didn't interrogate me, and you didn't show me any evidence. All you do is to tell me to confess. I must say, you're quite tough. But aren't you afraid of accidentally offending the wrong people here in Wolsing, especial
Yvonne frowned slightly when she realized what Garrick meant. "Director, my boss isn't a suspect. He's only here…""Whether he's a suspect or not isn't up to you or me. It's up to the law and the evidence," Garrick said, glaring at Yvonne. His gaze became somewhat sleazy, and he began to scheme how he could use this scenario to throw this beautiful woman into his bed.He continued to say righteously, "Ma'am, I'm warning you. You better not interrupt our investigation. Of course, if you have something to say, you can always lodge a complaint to the office."After that, he waved his hand, and the two officers behind him led Harvey into the interrogation room. Seeing what had happened, Yvonne hesitated a little before sending out a message quickly on her phone.This was something quite serious. If Harvey went in because of this, it would be quite troublesome for the Xavier family as well. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be convenient for the Xaviers to do anything…Meanwhile, Harvey w
Following the angry, booming voice, three people in uniform walked over.The one leading was an overweight man wearing a cap. His face was a little pale because he had been indulging himself for an extended time. The man behind him was tall and handsome, while the woman was elegant. Both the man and woman were in uniform, and they took in the chaos with a stern expression.The one who spoke was the one in the lead.All the men and women gave each other a look and stepped forward at the same time."Director Braff! You have to do us justice!""Director Braff! The specialist from the Country A embassy will give you a call very soon! You have to do this fairly!""Director Braff! There are about 80 thousand to 10 thousand citizens of Country A in Wolsing! You can't ignore our request!""Director Braff! You're a good friend of our country! All of your children are studying in our country! You definitely know how we treat our friends, right?"When the men and women spoke, some of them
Harvey's expression changed slightly after he heard that. After he had finished questioning both Gin and Morganna, he let them go. His aim was simple—he wanted to use them as bait.While it wasn't exactly effective, it was better than nothing.He didn't expect them to die in less than a day, with all the evidence pointed at him. At that moment, Harvey was so speechless, he felt like looking up into the sky.Before the precinct looked for him, Harvey went to the police station in the Third Ring. He had just entered the door when dozens of men in suits approached him with a pretentious aura."That's him! He's the murderer!""He silenced Gin and Morgana when they're just going to the hospital for an interview!""I heard he even offered them money and killed them when the bribery didn't succeed!"The people yelled at Harvey, revealing the crimes he committed. They took out the phone from their pockets, about to take a video of him.If Harvey were a normal person, he would have al
Half an hour later, Harvey and Yvonne enjoyed hot tea in the hospital meeting room.After finishing her cup, Yvonne sighed and said, "I underestimated Linus. While he was in prison and couldn't leave, I never expected that he could make something up like this. Claiming that I and the Islanders were colluding while the family's leader is sick so that I can take all the Xaviers' assets for myself."If the two of them really did publish an article like that with the photos they got, then I would never be able to prove my innocence. Thank you, Harvey."Yvonne sighed. Things would not have ended so smoothly if Harvey had not been around today. Since someone like Gin and Morganna were very pretentious. As long as their weaknesses were not exposed, they would never be able to get the truth out of them no matter how much they threatened the two."You focused on the wrong thing," Harvey said. "Whether Linus ordered the reporters or the reporters wanted to assassinate your character, both ha
Whoosh!A pebble shot out from the floor and immediately hit Gin on his wrist. Because of the pain, the revolver almost fell on the floor as he lost his grip.Two of the security guards saw their chance and quickly ran over. One grabbed the revolver away, and the other immediately captured the other two. Shortly, both Gin and Morganna were brought to the security room. Their IDs were also found."Oh, you two are reporters from Country A? Good, good!" Yvonne looked at the ID written in a foreign language. "I didn't expect reporters from Country A to come and spy on the health of my family members. You must have a lot of free time. Or… Did Linus send you?"Both Gin and Morganna's expressions turned into shock, but Morganna coldly said, "I don't know what you're talking about. Linus, Linas, they have nothing to do with me. All I know is that you're going to pay a price for imprisoning us here, and I know you're not brave enough to kill us!""That's right!" Gin commented with a cold e
After that, the duo were just going to leave like that. Yvonne frowned and then calmly said, "Stop them."After she made her orders, dozens of security guards walked out from the corner. They were all security guards from the Xaviers of Wolsing, and each was extremely strong.They did not attack but simply blocked all the entrances. When Morganna saw that, she was instantly enraged. "What's the meaning of this? How dare you stop the path of those who come from a world of freedom? Do you know what will happen if you do this?"Harvey merely smiled and asked, "World of freedom? Why don't you tell me which world of freedom you're from?""I've already gained permanent residency in Country A, so of course I'm from Country A!" answered Morganna smugly. "Country A is the most advanced country in this world. Now that we have joined Country A, of course we're people of freedom! I'm warning you, now that we're from Country A, your law is useless against us! Now, step out of our way!"Harvey
The expression of the man and woman both darkened with Yvonne's questioning. "Who are you then? What right do you have to question us? How can you prove that this is a private hospital? How can you prove that this place is not under the jurisdiction of the Health Department? Who do you think you are? The boss of this place?"The woman cried out arrogantly. Even her arguments were full of disdain."That's right. You're not the boss of this place, so why are you interfering in our matter? Go away, or I'm going to make you pay for our destroyed drone!" The two pretended they did nothing wrong, and Yvonne's sudden appearance spoiled their plans.Harvey observed the two coldly. While they acted very roguishly, their flexibility and arrogant tone showed they were anything but ordinary.At the very least, they were very used to situations like this."I'm sorry, but I'm Saint Mary Hospital's CEO," replied Yvonne with a smile and then pointed at the man's mobile. "Delete everything you've
Harvey calmly asked, "Do we have any leads?"Jesse shook his head. "Currently? No. The one who's behind this hid their tracks too well. I've already sent my people out to investigate the source when this happened, but we didn't get any valuable leads. But at this time, finding the person behind this isn't important. The important thing right now is that we need to save the patriarch. "Otherwise, if anything happens to him, Linus will have another excuse to attack us tomorrow at the press conference."Harvey nodded, pulled out a mobile, and gave it to Jesse. Then he said, "Since I'm heavily suspected of being the person behind this ploy, I can't do anything to help him in this situation. But I believe Oskar will be able to help for my sake.""The National Doctor Senior Oskar Armstrong?" Jesse was slightly stunned when he saw the number on the screen of the phone Harvey handed to him. A moment later, he was already making a call on the other side. He wanted to contact him, but only
