Everyone looked at each other after hearing Harvey’s words.They wanted to say that he was right, but they simply couldn’t risk embarrassing themselves.Anne’s face was bright red, and she kept grinding her teeth.Liberty and the others scoffed, desperately looking for something to say.“You think we don’t know that the beads are fake?“This is about respect! Young Master Reggie gave us a lot of respect for showing up today!“Even if he gave us a damn melon, it’d be the thought that counts! You understand?”She then glared at Mandy.“You’re the host today, but I should still tell you something! He has no right to sit with us! If you’re still planning to let him eat here, then I’ll be leaving!”Naturally, Liberty had no intention of admitting to her fault, nor was she planning on respecting Harvey.Mandy frowned.“If that’s the case, then you should leave right now. Not only am I eating with Harvey, he’s staying at my place too. You have any opinions about that?” she said.
Harvey could sense something wrong after hearing the conversation. Judging from Mandy’s expression, he decided not to cause her more trouble since she hadn’t figured out the waters here yet.“Right, everyone,” Harvey said after standing up.“I understand now. It’s all my fault.“I have no right to eat with you people.“I barged in here only because I missed Mandy.“I’ll leave now.“Another thing; tell Reggie something for me. If he’s going to cause trouble, then just come at me!”Harvey winked at Mandy while setting an elegant-looking box in front of her before leaving the room.Mandy froze, clearly moved. She understood what Harvey was doing; she knew he didn’t want to make things harder for her.After fighting in the business world for so long, she was no longer the woman she was before.“Sorry, everyone. It was all my fault,” she said while smiling at her rascally friends, forcing her feelings back.“Come on, let’s talk about anything else other than work.“Sorry about t
“Come now, ma’am! No need to get mad!”Anne smiled while walking beside Lilian.“We already chased Harvey away! We wouldn’t let someone like him get close to Mandy! You told us so, remember?”Lilian finally let out a sigh, her expression cold.“Good! My eyes are twitching already! Nothing good ever comes with that kid’s name!“I’m warning you, Mandy! Don’t you dare be in contact with him from now on! You understand me?!”Mandy’s expression was horrible. “We’re just friends, Mother…”“Shut up already!”Lilian slammed the table.“You think I don’t know about this?! He’s only trying to cling to you because you’re rich now!“You’re a member of the top ten families! You should know to only be close to people like you!“Look at what Young Master Hector did! He gave me a card with a million dollars in it! Can that filthy vermin do something like that?“Don’t talk to me about his stupid business in South Light, either!“Let me tell you something! Everything outside of Wolsing mean
“What’s this?”Master Sallow quickly came to the front and picked up the skin of the pill, then took a few huffs and had a taste of his finger.Soon after, he appeared ecstatic.“Where’s the actual content? Where is it?”Everyone looked at each other.“Master Sallow… Is there something wrong with it?”“Of course there is!” Master Sallow quickly approached Lilian and held her hands. “Tell me! Where did it go?!”Lilian instinctively looked at the burping poodle. “I…fed it to my dog…”“What?! What did you say?!”Master Sallow’s face lost color, and he stumbled around the place.Furious, he went to the poodle, and pried its mouth open and smelled it. He instantly fell to the ground after that.“Who did this?! Who fed the Honey Pill to the dog?! Even the wealthiest of people can’t afford such a thing!“Don’t you know?! Only kings of the past would have the right to eat something like this!“It’s said to revive the dead, and cure all diseases!“Not long ago, the old lady of the
After seeing the goddess with an exquisite figure smiling, Harvey let out a sigh.“You’re kidding me. Did you know what happened there?”Judging from the fact that Yvonne telling the staff to send in the dishes, it was clear she knew everything that happened. If not, she wouldn’t even ask Harvey such a random question.“I was just worried about you being too immersed in the outskirts and forgetting how we do things here in Wolsing.”Harvey looked at Ray as if he was begging for help.Ray kept his eyes glued on his phone, as if there was something interesting on it.Harvey’s eyes twitched; he then put on a stern expression.“Let’s just talk about the Country H Commercial Group for now, Yvonne,” he said, desperately trying to change the subject.“We need to do a good job about this, right? Tell me what’s going on in the organization!”Yvonne glared at Harvey for a moment; when the dishes were all sent over, she poured a bowl of soup and handed it to Harvey before finally speakin
“When should we start taking action?”Yvonne grabbed Harvey a drumstick, smiling.“There’s no rush; Elric’s not retired yet, right?” Harvey replied with food in his mouth.“If we take action now, everyone will turn against us out of hatred. Just let the others fight, and we’ll reap the rewards after that.“We need to do things the best way with minimal casualties.”Yvonne chuckled.“We can’t just sit here and do nothing though, right?”Ray had no intention of holding back. “We might as well head back to South Light if that’s the case.”“What are you saying?”Harvey glared at Ray.“We’re not even done with Sky Corporation’s relocation.“We haven’t even got a suitable investor in Wolsing, either.“We’d have to find an opportunity to secure a place here first, you know?“We have full control over Buckwood…but this is Wolsing. Everything’s a lot more difficult here.”Ray nodded, then pondered the situation for a moment.“I understand. Sky Corporation will launch all busine
Harvey showed a profound gaze; he didn’t think a gift to Mandy would cause such huge trouble.‘Maybe I should’ve…’While Harvey was in deep thought, Yvonne smiled.“Of course, this is just speculation.“Maybe the Hunt family would treat them kindly for the Honey Pill’s whereabouts. In any case, we’ll cross the bridge when we get there.“For my old lover’s sake, I’ll make sure that nothing happens to her.”Harvey’s eyes twitched.With both Mandy and Yvonne in the same city, the love triangle was bound to have some drama.Before Harvey’s headache could subside, Yvonne’s face darkened and she continued to speak. “Right, Sir York. There’s something that I need to tell you.“The Xavier family’s butler gave me a call; they know that I came back here already. He said that the old man’s arranging another date for me, and demanded me to go.”Harvey’s eyes twitched again.Ray desperately wanted to hide under the table after hearing those words.Bam!When Harvey was still thinking
Yvonne smiled at Harvey, completely ignoring Reggie.“Judging from this guy’s tone, you must’ve stolen his woman. Let me guess: Mandy? You have quite the good luck with women, huh?”Yvonne chuckled.The curve of her smile, revealing her bright teeth, would be enough to make any man lose control.“No, you’re the one with good luck here…”Reggie looked as if his soul was being pulled as he tried reaching out to Yvonne’s face.“If I were you, I wouldn’t do anything until I figure out who I’m dealing with,” Harvey said after setting his utensils down.“I guarantee that if you get your hand any closer, you’ll be the one suffering.“Grovel and admit to your mistake, then get your men out of here.“Pay for the room on your way out, and I’ll let you off the hook.“After all, I don’t want to cause any trouble since it’s my first day here.”Reggie froze; he didn’t think that Harvey was a prominent figure, but a useless kept man. But judging from Harvey’s tone, he started to realize th
