On the dining table, Simon Zimmer and his wife were accompanying Xynthia Zimmer. They doted on their youngest daughter.They might have to rely on their youngest daughter to bask in wealth and glory in the future, of course they would treat her better.Mandy Zimmer sat in front of them.Xynthia looked at Harvey not far from her, she could not hold in her words.“Mother, Father, why don’t we let the brother-in-law come over?”“Him? Today’s food was prepared just for you! What right does he have to be here?”Lilian Yates despised Harvey York more at that moment.He used to wash the restroom and carry foot wash before in Niumhi.He did not even do any of those now that the family had relocated to Buckwood.What use did he have even?“If it were me, I’d find time for Mandy to divorce him. He stays in the house every day, it’s annoying.” Simon said with a frown.“Divorce? Then do it quickly. I strongly request my sister to divorce him!”Xynthia had gotten a little excited.“Huh
“Right! I almost forgot about it this year!“Let’s go, we’re going out for a while!”Harvey York was deep in thought before, but then he abruptly stood up.Xynthia Zimmer was showing a face full of discontent. She stared at Harvey fumingly.‘Gosh, this brother-in-law!’Harvey did not even move an inch when she nagged about it. But once she mentioned her sister, he immediately stood up.Outside the district Yvonne Xavier had prepared a Mercedes Maybach this time around.The exterior of the car looked ordinary, but it would be an entirely different world once inside.“Brother-in-law, how did you get this car? Rumors say that the car’s only custom made, you can’t even get it domestically. You’d have to import it from overseas.”Xynthia was an expert after all. It was essential for her to have basic knowledge about luxury items and cars because she was born into an upper class family.“Somebody else brought it to me, it’s not mine.” Harvey replied.Both of them got into the car
This was a part of Buckwood’s business, a tourist centre.Buckwood Tower was primarily the landmark building of Buckwood.There was a shopping centre located at a lower level of Buckwood Tower, all of the world renowned luxury items were sold there.Once they had ridden the elevator for a hundred floors and got to the top, there was the tallest revolving restaurant in Buckwood.The walls around the restaurant were all transparent, anyone could see the full expanse of Buckwood just by sitting there.Besides, all the chefs here had three Michelin stars. They all had a high worth, their cooking skills were extraordinary.It would easily cost more than thousands of dollars just for a meal here.Most importantly, people would need to make appointments to eat here. Ordinary people could not even book a spot there.Sometimes, the official website would be open for appointments, the seats would all be fully booked within a minute.People that dine here were some of the most wealthy bu
Naturally, the waiters thought that both of them wanted to dine here.Harvey York shook his head.“I don’t have a reservation, I’m not here to dine either.“I’d like to reserve the entire restaurant for the day after tomorrow.”Xynthia Zimmer’s body trembled, she looked at Harvey like she was in love.‘My brother-in-law is so handsome. No, he is so grand!‘He could book a place like this without even asking for the price!’“Sir, you may not know about our restaurant policies. You need to have an online reservation a month prior to be able to have a spot in the restaurant, and we do not provide charter services,” the waiter explained patiently.Harvey frowned and said, “Do you not understand me? I need the entire place for the day after tomorrow.”At that moment, Harvey was wearing cheap store-bought goods. He did not look like a wealthy person at all.The waiters sized him up and their expressions changed.“Sir, this isn’t a place for you to cause a ruckus! Do you know how m
Harry Zapata and his family, was a third-class family in Buckwood.The Zapata family relied on establishing restaurants to survive. When their business froze over a few years ago, they had gotten new investments from Harvey York.Then the Zapata family was secretly siding with Harvey after that and dealt with quite a few other competitors in the same industry.Now, they had almost no competitors when they stood at the top of the food industry in Buckwood.After Prince York had recently made a strong return, and the Zapata family had offered more than half of the shares. They also had rebranded their business under Sky Corporation’s name.But they were only holding the shares in Sky Corporation, it did not affect the business of the Zapata family.The assets of the Zapata family were only mediocre after all, Sky Corporation could not be bothered about it at that moment.But with the support of the powerhouse like Sky Corporation, the Zapata family were as powerful as them. Thus,
Noticing the change in Harvey’s expression, Xynthia, who knew how scary he could be when angered, quickly mediated the situation and hurriedly said, “It’s okay. It was just a few words, so let’s ignore them.”“Don’t forget, we’re here to make a reservation.”Xynthia shifted her gaze to Harry Zapata. “Senior, we wish to reserve the whole place the day after tomorrow. Do you think it’s possible?”Although she herself was full of anger, she held it in because of her brother-in-law.Harry sized Xynthia up and snickered. “No. Our rule is guests must make reservations at least a month earlier. Plus, we don’t allow anyone to book the entire place.”Harvey cut in, “You’ll allow if I say so. I’ll give you a hundred and fifty million dollars to let us book the whole place.”Harry cackled loudly. “Seems you’re pretty loaded, huh?”He spat on the ground and added, “But I don’t need that filthy money of yours!”“Keep your eyes open wide! From now onwards our restaurant will have an extra ru
Under their ridicule, Xynthia Zimmer went red with shame.She couldn’t help tugging at her brother-in-law’s shirt and whispered, “Brother-in-law, let’s just go and book somewhere else!”“I want it to be here. I like this place.” Harvey replied. “Since the Zapatas don’t want to serve me, then we’ll simply change hosts.” “Ha ha ha! Okay, we’ll wait and see. There’s three minutes left.”Harry made a show of studying his watch on purpose, his face filled with open mockery. “One minute left…”As he continued parading his arrogance, the door to the elevator slid open.A few men in pristine suits strode toward Harvey and addressed him with utmost respect. “Mr. York. From today onwards, we’ll be running the Spinning Restaurant. We’ll make sure your reservation for the day after tomorrow is done efficiently!”Everyone took in the scene with stunned shock, utterly baffled.Xynthia was so astonished, her whole body shook.Did Brother-in-law really achieve what he wanted?How was that
The smartly-dressed men tagged submissively behind Harvey York, their heads sinking into deep bows. “M-Mr. York…”“According to Secretary Xavier’s instructions, from today onwards this restaurant will be directly run by Sky Corporation. Do you have any orders for me, sir?”“There’s no need to change the workers or the rules here. Well, except that one rule where you need to pay a hundred and half a million dollars to book the entire place…” Harvey tossed his card and continued, “I want to book this whole venue on the day after tomorrow for a birthday dinner. Remember to decorate the place nicely.”The temporary person-in-charge caught Harvey’s black card with shaky hands.Initially he had been doubtful, but now he’s as certain as ever.This is the man from the legend!Yet seeing how this man always kept a low profile, the temporary person-in-charge didn’t dare to address him with the name that all of Buckwood treated with utmost awe and respect.Since Harvey wanted to pay with t
Hearing Harvey's conversation, the beautiful female officer said in disdain, "What? Are you pretending to contact someone from the Braff family? Do you think that's enough to scare the director? Our director is someone important within the family! If you really know the people from the Braff family, why wouldn't he know you?"I'm telling you right now. If you really did call someone from the Braff family, I, Snowe Leo, will eat this phone right in front of everyone!"In the beginning, Garrick was taken aback as well. But after he quickly glanced at the number on the screen, he smiled coldly. "You probably didn't know this, but aside from the number of my family's patriarch, I've saved the number of everyone important in the family. Do you want to trick me using just a random number? You're quite bold!""Really, now?" Harvey said with a smile. "At the very least, you know that you don't have the right to know his number. In that case, I'll help you delete that number. It won't be g
"Ha… I'm the director of the precinct in the Third Ring, and I'm not worth your time?" Garrick was so angry that he was laughing. "You made yourself sound like you're someone very capable. Come on, show me just how capable you are right now!"Garrick immediately grabbed his phone and tossed it at Harvey. "Come on, make a call! If you can find someone who can overpower me, I'll bend my knee right now."The other two officers also looked at Harvey as if they were looking like a fool. "Forget the fact that you're just an ex-live-in son-in-law… Even if you really did become a CEO through your own abilities, what is there to be proud of?" the female officer said with a smirk. In her eyes, Harvey was just a loser. If a man like him wanted to pursue her, he would have already kicked him to the rub.Harvey didn't waste his breath and immediately picked up the phone, giving Eliel Braff a call. Very quickly, the call came through and a stern voice came from the other side. "Who is thi
"Your deduction is quite interesting. Sounds like a detective show, to be honest," Harvey said calmly. "Unfortunately, I have a clear conscience. Why should I admit to a crime I never committed?""Not you?" The female officer slammed the table again. "If you didn't do it, why are you so willing to cooperate with us? You're telling me it isn't because you're feeling guilty? Harvey York, you have to understand that the crime you committed is very serious, especially when the person you killed is from Country A!"If the Embassy sends a specialist to interfere with this investigation, you're going to be in trouble. You better confess when the precinct can still help you. Otherwise, I'm afraid there's nothing you can change no matter how much you regret it in the future."Their phones would buzz every once in a while, which meant new information coming in. From the new information, not only was Harvey the live-in son-in-law of the Jeans of Mordu, one of the top ten families, but he was a
"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
