At Sky Corporation.Zack and Quinn Zimmer waited anxiously for more than half an hour until the deputy director finally returned.He shook hands with Zack Zimmer, smiling genially. “Vice CEO Zimmer, please go back and tell CEO Zimmer that our arrangement doesn’t require him to show himself in person. If there are any questions or doubts, a simple call will suffice. He has my number.”“Also, this is something I specially prepared for him. Please give this to him on my behalf.”The deputy director took out an exquisite gift box and handed it to Zack.What?Sky Corporation’s deputy director is giving Zimmer Enterprise’s CEO a gift?What’s going on?Zack was still in a daze as he walked out of Sky Corporation while holding the gift box. He did not understand what had happened.However, Quinn was very curious. She kept staring at the gift box for a long time. Finally, she couldn’t hold herself back and blurted out, “Zack, what’s in it? Let’s open it!”Zack was just as curious, but
In the Zimmer family.The Zimmer family members were all gathered together in one place. Even Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer were called.They did not gather at the temporary villa they rented before. Instead, they gathered at the new villa located in the illustrious area of Buckwood.When Zack told Senior Zimmer about the villa, Senior Zimmer decided to have a look immediately and set out to the villa.Every single one of the Zimmers fell into hushed astonishment when they entered the villa.The building was a typical Western-style single-family villa, covering an area of nearly five hundred square meters and with a total of three floors.Such a villa might not be a big deal in Buckwood.Yet for the Zimmer family, it was more than a suitable match for their status.Senior Zimmer studied the villa in front of him, trembling in delight. His eyes were full of desire.Zack laughed. “Grandfather, this villa isn’t bad, right? Still, I heard that all the first-class families live on S
The few unmarried Zimmer women flushed red with excitement.Before, they were envious of Quinn having the chance to enter the Silva family and marry Leon Silva.Yet now, the legendary Prince York came to propose!If the Silva family was considered a rich family, then the Yorks were the richest among the rich!The legendary Prince York built up a billion-dollar enterprise from scratch, all on his own. He used his sole power to bring the Yorks back to the top!He stood at the top of South Light and was already nudging into the top circles of Country H!Such a man was a true prince charming, the dream of every woman!Before this, they dared not entertain such thoughts as it was simply impossible.Only Mandy’s face had gone slightly pale.Rumors speculated that she was Prince York’s secret lover. However, Mandy knew her affairs all too well. This so-called Prince York had nothing to do with her.Now, Prince York was sending earth-shattering betrothal gifts to the Zimmers. It was
The previous speculations about Mandy Zimmer being Prince York’s secret lover vanished at this very moment.Yet, it also showed that Mandy had no chance to be a potential bride.“Hahahaha! Zack was right. Now, we have one competitor less!”“Harvey! You are indeed a good son-in-law!”“We’re so grateful to you. Whoever dares to give you a hard time in the future, I’ll be the first to barge in and defend you!”Harvey York frowned. Since he did not arrange for these gifts, Yvonne Xavier would not have taken such actions. As for the Yorks, who would dare to do something like this without his consent? Was it Quinton York?No, not him. Quinton was thoughtful and cautious. He liked to employ carefully crafted strategies and tactics. He would never use this kind of childish method.Was it the twins?No. The twins had always been low-key, and they lacked presence among the Yorks.Collectively, the masters of the Yorks were known as the Famous Four. In truth, Quinton was the person
Simon Zimmer’s face darkened.The big project that he brought back was taken away, and the framework agreement that belonged to his daughter was snatched by someone else.Now, he could only stand aside and watch as other daughters marry into a wealthy family. He felt very uncomfortable.“We have to make Mandy divorce that loser Harvey as soon as possible.” Lilian Yates said coldly. “With that hoodoo around, our lives can only get worse!” Simon Zimmer took a deep breath and said, “I also want that to happen! But the old man gave me a warning before I left. The Zimmers’ big day is near. If anything off happens during that time, I’m dead!”“The old man’s afraid that Mandy will steal other people’s spotlight. He won’t let Mandy divorce Harvey under any circumstances!”Lilian slapped Simon hard across his face and screamed fiercely, “Simon, are you going to do whatever that old man says? Can you be assertive at least for once?” “First, Prince Silva! Then, Prince York!”“If our dau
Harvey waited for about half an hour before he finally entered the house, carrying some meat and vegetables. “Father, Mother, I just passed by the market and found something on sale. Let’s have a big meal tonight!”Mandy smiled. “Okay!”Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates’ gazes were strange. When they looked at Harvey, there was no disgust or helplessness inside their eyes.Instead, they were filled with hopelessness. There were some things that they no longer wanted to talk about.Mandy refused to get a divorce. They had no choice but to let it slide. They decided to give up.Now, all their hopes rested on Xynthia. ***The next day, Mandy went to the Zimmer Enterprise for work. Harvey went out with her.Before they left, Lilian said,“Mandy, it’ll be the National Day in two days. Your sister just started her studies in a boarding school. I’m not sure if she’ll get used to it.”“So, you’ll be responsible for bringing her home.”Lilian had it all figured out. Since her eldest daugh
Harvey spent a few seconds playing with his watch before finally turning to look at Queenie. “You’re coming to see me so openly. Aren’t you afraid that Quinton will find out and kill you?”“Would he have the heart to kill such a cute little sister?” Queenie smiled sweetly.“Cute?” Harvey smirked mockingly. The woman before him could be described as many things. Manipulative, a femme fatale, a cold beauty, dangerously fliratious… Cute was not one of them. Cute did not suit her at all.Sure enough, Harvey couldn’t deny her beauty. However, he knew that it was nothing more than a weapon for murder.A weapon so powerful, it could harm the country and the people.“If you didn’t think I’m cute, why did you take me to the Yorks back then?” Queenie asked calmly, recalling their past.“I was only eight when I brought you back. How could I anticipate that the three-year-old little girl I found on the roadside would try to kill me ten years later?” Harvey replied, indifferent.“Of course,
Queenie York stared at the direction Harvey left. After a while, she broke into an amused smile. “Second Brother, let’s make a guess. Do you think his words were meant for me, or for you?”A man in a tunic walked out. He was playing with a jade-made chess piece clenched in his hand. He said indifferently, “It’s for me, and also for you…”“Aren’t you afraid?” Queenie asked.“Why should I be? You mustn’t be afraid if you want to tame a fiery horse. The Yorks are like that, and so are you.” Faint crimson flashed through Quinton’s eyes, but he quickly recovered his composure.He wasn’t sure if Queenie understood him. She replied casually, “Since Big Brother has come to declare war, then I’ll stop playing tricks on my sister-in-law.”“Whatever.” Quinton strode out of the suite.“But let me advise you, don’t overdo it. Even I can’t save you if you keep playing with fire!”As soon as he finished speaking, he left and vanished without a trace. Queenie’s smile disappeared. She looked a
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
