After Harvey York had left the manor half an hour later, a Porsche sports car sped out from the manor and reached an upscale villa community outside the city's Fifth Ring.The villa community was built by the mountains and a lake. The greening in the community was very well done, with birds singing and flowers blooming, and the buildings were built in the architectural styles of the early 1900s.It was apparent that the buildings here were all around a hundred years old, but they were very well maintained. It was a testament to the wealth and influence of the owner.The Porsche stopped in front of a structure, and Kartier Failes, Hadlee Kennedy, and the others all got out of the car with a dark expression.Everyone could see Kartier was scheming against Harvey tonight.Not only did his scheme fail, but Harvey also immediately turned the tables on him.Kartier also felt unsettled by how Harvey said he would force Kartier to show him respect.That was why Kartier thought he had to
"You talk too much.Janus Darnell tossed the towel he was drying his hair with to the side and spoke nonchalantly."Karty, it's true that I'm your cousin, but I've also warned you."My place is not suitable for a nepo baby like yourself."You shouldn't come here too often."I'll try and recommend you to Mr. Wright once the opportunity presents itself."But you should understand there are many scions of great families who wanted to follow him throughout Wolsing—no, the entire country. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of them."It's a bit difficult with what the Failes have."Unless you can contribute something to him…"Kartier Failes forced a smile and said, "Oh, my dear cousin."Actually, I have two things I want to tell you today."Firstly, I want to inform you the woman Mr. Wright is interested in is being taken advantage of by an outsider."Secondly, this same bastard threatened me, saying that no matter who is supporting me, he will make me show him respect."Then
"What? Is that the only approach you can think of using that brain of yours when you encounter something like this? In broad daylight and under the watchful eyes of our rulers?Janus Darnell gave Kartier Failes a look and obviously showed the disappointment in his eyes."As your older cousin, Karty, I believe I'll need to properly educate you tonight."You understand what kind of a person the man we choose to follow will become in the future, yes?"He's going to become the patriarch of one of the ten top families in this country."He's going to stand at the pinnacle of humanity's hierarchy."However, you don't even know the meaning of achieving victory without wasting your forces when you wish to join someone like him."All you know is violence. Where is your manner of perspective? Where is your assertiveness?"Don't you know Mr. Wright hates these inappropriate schemes the most?""What we should be doing is to plan and strategize far away from the conflict yet be able to achi
"Harvey, you bastard!"You're so ungrateful!"The following day, Zhuri Vaus stormed Harvey York at the dining hall in the five-star hotel.She tossed her Hermes purse on the table as she glared at Harvey with wide eyes. If looks could kill, he would have already died."Do you know how many calls I had to make last night because of you?"After I made all the calls and sucked them up, I can't contact you at all?"Who do you think you are? Why do you think you can act all high and mighty?"According to Zhuri, she had pulled so many strings to help Harvey settle this.But in the end?After flattering all those people, she could not even find Harvey.Her efforts had been completely trashed.That was why she immediately made her way to that place when she received news about Harvey's whereabouts.When Zhuri saw how carefree Harvey was, all she could feel was the stuffiness in her chest.Harvey put down the spoon as he finished gulping the cereal in his mouth and wiped his mouth
When Zhuri Vaus tried to pull Harvey York up, he immediately pushed Zhuri's hand away."You…"Zhuri could feel herself almost exploding when she saw how Harvey acted."What's with that attitude?"Do you think I'm joking with you?"Harvey merely replied, "I can see your passion, Ms. Vaus."But if I'm correct, you're not really being sincere when you ask for leniency for my sake, right?"You did all of that because, if I don't surrender, you'll also get dragged into this mess, correct?"You're the one who brought me there."If you're worried about that, don't worry. Before they're done with me, they won't turn their wrath on you."Not to mention I will show them the respect they deserve soon."All you need to do is to watch from the sideline."This has nothing to do with you.""You…" Zhuri started to shake out of anger when she heard it."Why can't I talk sense into you?"I'll see just where you'll end up!"I gave you an inch and you took a mile!"You're so ungrateful an
Zhuri Vaus glanced at her phone with a strange expression. However, she still quickly walked to the side and took the call.After a moment, she hung up and gave Harvey York a strange look. "Alright, enough. Stop eating."I'm taking you to the Wolsing Auction."There are plenty of things for you to eat at the auction."Harvey frowned. "Why are you suddenly taking me to some auction?"Zhuri replied with a frown. "Do you know who called me just now?"It's Hadlee."She said that Kartier and the others have thought it through."They believed that both sides were at fault last night so they're ready to apologize to you and consider this a compromise." I'm telling you, Kartier is a very prideful man."It's very rare for him to be willing to go to such length."You better be grateful for this."While Zhuri was saying that, she was still very suspicious of it. She still did not believe Kartier Failes was someone who could compromise so easily.She was thinking that perhaps Journi
"As expected of you, Mr. York!"You're so magnanimous!"Truly worthy of one who will lead the entire Country H Commercial Group!"I can already see how Country H Commercial Group will rise and expand under your leadership, Mr. York!Kartier Failes gave Harvey York a thumbs up."Alright, brothers and sisters. Let's go!"Let's celebrate how Mr. York will lead Country H Commercial Group into a new era and even greater heights!"The others started to chant loudly. "A new era! Greater heights!""Long live Mr. York!"As if Harvey had already become the chairman.The more Zhuri Vaus looked at it, the more Zhuri felt suspicious. Was that how Kartier and the others always were?No matter how she looked at it, it looked like it was all an act.She instinctively gave Harvey a look and hoped Harvey was not being too full of himself, that he would treat all of their fake praises as sincere.However, it seemed like Harvey really could not see through them and was beaming smiles. "I'll l
"Mr. York?"One of the men from Country J was slightly stunned before bending over and whispering something into Antonio's ears.When Antionio heard the words "Mr. York", his eyes showed a glint of interest.His lips curled into a meaningful smirk after listening to his subordinate's report. "Looks like the Country H Commercial Group has reached its end."Mr. Stanton is also dying."That's why he asked someone so young to inherit his place."Mr. York, is it?"Antonio suddenly asked as he looked at Harvey York."The Country H Commercial Group is our greatest competitor for Nova Corporation in the auction today."However, the person who came isn't Mr. Stanton, but a nameless man like you who came out of nowhere."Then, I'll make it clear right here and now."You better not compete with me and step in my way."Otherwise, I'll make sure you'll regret ever doing so."After that, Antonio waved his hand and arrogantly led his men into the auction house.When Harvey saw what had
