The car was dead silent the entire trip. The Porche came to a quiet path approximately an hour after driving down the viaduct.A manor thousands of acres big was found at the end of the path.Every single luxury car could be seen with gorgeous-looking people.This was the city suburbs, but every single corner was perfectly decorated with luxury and wealth in mind.Harvey York squinted momentarily before figuring something out. Other than being a simple restaurant and a banquet venue…This was also a resort that was established for people from the upper social circle.After all, ordinary people would not require a racecourse and golf courts.It was safe to say that only the top-rated people in Wolsing could spend their money here.After seeing Harvey squinting at the sight before him, Zhuri Vaus thought Harvey was just a country bumpkin who was severely culture shocked.She scoffed before speaking in a very prideful tone.“This is the Royal Manor, an extremely high-class estab
Harvey casually walked a few circles around the hall when he saw a variety of exquisite pastries and fruits on long tables.An enchanting champagne tower was also shimmering under the lights.A dozen chefs with white hats ran around the open kitchen before Western food dishes were served in rapid succession.Other than that, all sorts of entertainment facilities were also seen there, including cards and pool tables.The waiters were tall and had beautiful features, enticing the urges of everyone around them.It was clear that the place was made purely for entertainment.A dozen women with jewelry that would cost a fortune to any ordinary people were taking pictures together.Handsome men in suits held their champagnes and wine while they chitchatted eloquently.Some princes and young masters even played cards and worked out with their female companions.It was safe to say the luxurious place felt quite serene. Anyone coming here would surely feel right at home.Of course, onl
In Cason Lee’s mind…A young master capable of fighting was just icing on the cake.But so what if a poor sob could fight?Not only would that be completely useless, but they would also get themselves into unnecessary trouble!After all, no matter how good at fighting someone could be, the country simply had machines that could do that even better!There would be no chance even to throw a single punch!He planned to find an excuse to get Harvey kicked out before dealing with him.Other than Kylan Hunt, many more people were interested in Xynthia Zimmer.That said, it would be hard to drag her around to accompany guests with Harvey’s support.“Why do I have to explain myself to you?Harvey casually took a sip of his champagne.“Is this your property? Or do you belong to the organization hosting the banquet?“If not, then what right do you have even to question me?“You must be quite the nosy bastard, aren’t you?”“You…”Cason’s eyes twitched when he was instantly stumped.
“You don’t look like you’re supposed to be here, young man,” said the man while standing before Harvey York.“I’m afraid I’ll have to see your invitation, or you’ll have to tell me who brought you here in the first place.”Harvey swirled his glass around.“I have to prove my right to come in a rundown place like this?“Sure, but go find someone else to prove it first.”“You need to understand your situation here,” exclaimed the captain coldly.“Ms. Journi already has the entire place booked.“Without her invitation, nobody else is allowed here.“Especially those who only came to get free food and drinks.“If I were you, I’d be smart enough to leave after having enough food in my stomach.”The captain was disdainful. He was not showing Harvey any respect, as if he knew his speculation was spot on.Harvey put his glass down before briefly wiping his fingers.“And what makes you think I’m only here for the free food?“Everyone here owns a business under the Country H Commerci
“Whether I belong in the circle…“Or whether the circle’s worthy enough to have me…“Is none of your business, right?”“You’re right about that.The captain let out another cold chuckle.“That said, I have obligations to throw you out since you’re an outlier.“Of course, I’ll properly compensate for your damages if you can prove your identity.“But then, can you even do that?”Harvey seemed curious.“What are you going to do?“Grovel before me?”“You want me to grovel?” asked the captain in a gloomy voice.“Let me warn you, kid…“You shouldn’t talk this big in a place like Wolsing.“You want me, Frank Zummo, to grovel?“Who do you think you are? The chairman?“Of course, if you’re actually the chairman…“I’ll even call you ‘Daddy’ after groveling before you!”Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm across Frank’s face.His actions were quick and deadly, completely catching Frank off guard.Everyone around quickly turned over after hearing the loud slap.“Your word
Zhuri Vaus’ eyes twitched when she briefly hesitated.“He’s right. He’s the next chairman of the organization.”“Huh?!”“What?!”“He’s the next chairman?!”“Did I hear things wrong?!”“Probably not. Zhuri’s the chairman’s personal secretary. She wouldn’t joke about things like this!”“So, you’re saying that the young man’s been playing dumb the entire time?!”Many people were filled with fear and disbelief.Even Cason Lee’s jaw had completely dropped then.Frank Zummo was filled with surprise before he thought of something.“Ms. Zhuri, this isn’t the person who was accidentally chosen as the new chairman now, is it?“The same person without any background who got chosen because the other council members didn’t want to vote for the opposition?Zhuri nodded.“Pfft!Frank smiled gloomily before tapping on Harvey York’s shoulder, forgetting the fact that he was already slapped in the face.“So, you’re the legendary Sir York!“I apologize for everything I said!“You’re als
When Zhuri Vaus desperately tried to steer Harvey York in the right direction, a group of young people showed up at the front door.A beautiful woman in a short, black Givenchy dress had her eyes lit up before wrapping herself around Zhuri’s arm.“Zhuri! You’re also here?“I thought you wouldn’t come! You didn’t answer when Young Master Kartier called you a few times!“He’s no ordinary young master, Zhuri!“His father’s one of the oldest council members in the Country H Commercial Group!“You won’t be embarrassed with him by your side!“Wolsing’s circle isn’t as small as you think.“That said, only a few people actually suit you.“Young Master Kartier’s also not a bad pick…”The woman with the sincere expression was probably Zhuri’s good friend.Zhuri quickly skimmed past the subject before looking back at Harvey again. She wanted to tell Harvey to do the right thing.At the same time, she started to regret bringing Harvey here since Kartier was arriving soon.The woman re
“Does she now?Harvey York smiled.“That may be true…“But, she’s clearly looking down on me.“Though, I can’t be bothered.“She’s just an ant to me anyway.”Harvey shook his head before casually raising his teacup.Hadlee Kennedy looked horrible.She came to give Harvey a lesson…And yet she was the one being looked down upon.“You!“Ignorant bastard!Hadlee scoffed.“Just you wait! When Young Master Kartier’s here, I’ll tell him everything that happened! We’ll see how you end up after that!”Zhuri Vaus’ expression worsened.“You should apologize, Harvey.“You’d be in trouble if she spills everything to Young Master Kartier.”“So what?“Why would I be scared of a council’s son?”Zhuri stomped her feet in anger.“Do you think you’re actually the chairman?!“Why wouldn’t you be scared?!“At this point, even the council’s subordinate can easily crush you!”Hadlee and the others were just about to question Harvey after hearing Zhuri’s remarks.But at this very mome
