Senior Zimmer gazed deeply at Mandy Zimmer. After thinking about it, he finally said, “Mandy if you have time, go and sort out the recent carrying value and the progress of the project. Send it to me, I would like to have a look.”Mandy knew that Senior Zimmer was using this as an excuse to intervene in the affairs of the Silver Nimbus Mountain Resort project.However, Senior Zimmer’s request was quite reasonable. She could not refuse at all. She could only slightly nod, her expression unpleasant. Zack Zimmer glanced at Mandy with a complacent stare.‘Since Grandfather is willing to make a move and I can’t take you down today, there are still many chances in the future.’“Okay, let’s not talk about this. Let’s see who is going to attend the Yates family’s birthday banquet this time.” Senior Zimmer waved his hand. Now, it was time for him to demonstrate his authority.In truth, he did not expect this. He wondered why the Zimmer family was able to receive this invitation.Did th
At Zack Zimmer’s taunts, Harvey smiled faintly and said, “If I want to go, of course, I can go. If I don’t, no one can force me to.”Zack sneered, “You’re so good at bragging. Then you should go! If you can attend the birthday banquet, I will kneel in front of you!”Harvey laughed. “It’s not like you didn’t do that before. I’m not interested.”“You, you, you…!” Zack recalled the Antique Fair in Niumhi and his complexion worsened.Nevertheless, he took a deep breath and said, “Harvey, this is different from the past. At that time, you did a bit of power. That’s why the Naiswells invited you to the Antique Fair!”“The birthday banquet this time isn’t the same. It’s held by the Yates family, the first-class family in the provincial capital!”“The chief of the Yates family is the third-in-command in South Light!”“Such a family wouldn’t invite you just because you have a bit of ability!”“I initially thought that Mandy could be a representative of your family and attend the birthda
Lilian Yates immediately grew furious at Harvey’s remark. Glaring at him, she screamed, “Didn’t I just say it?!”“My brother is the head of the Yates family and the third-in-command in South Light!”“Are you saying that the third-in-command in South Light will personally come and send you the invitation card?”“Yes.” Harvey said indifferently, “I initially refused, but now, since Mandy wants to go, I’ll let him come.”Lilian Yates and Simon Zimmer were both enraged.They had seen people bragging, but never to such an extent.It was just, Harvey’s lies seemed so close to the truth.Lilian did not even have the mood to get angry at this moment. Instead, she glanced at Mandy and said, “Mandy, as your mother, I kindly persuade you again. This kind of liar can only talk big without doing things practically. You should have kicked him out long ago!”Simon also left, lamenting. He was destined to have a miserable life in the next half of his life for getting involved with such a worth
In Buckwood Hotel.Although this place was not famous, it was not opened to the public. Instead, it was just a place used to entertain foreign guests and investors.This was where Grandma Yates’ birthday banquet was hosted.With this, we could also see the Yatese’ status in Buckwood.Today, the roads in this place were blocked by the police. Many of them were patrolling the surrounding area.Except for those with the invitation cards, no one else was permitted to access this area.It was said that even the waiters engaging in the internal services were specially and carefully selected. This was sufficient to further illustrate the influence of the Yates family in Buckwood.Luxury cars entered the hotel’s parking lot one after another. Those who exited these cars at the front of the hotel were all big shots from Buckwood’s elites.There were several figures from the business circles, as well. After all, the Yateses were an aristocratic family.Among these people, the Zimmer fam
“Father, we’re here to attend the birthday banquet. We have an invitation card.” Simon Zimmer said, gritting his teeth slightly.Simon couldn’t be sure whether Harvey was telling the truth, but he couldn't back down right now!“Oh? You have an invitation card?” Zack Zimmer laughed. “Then show it to us!” “This…”Simon automatically glanced at Harvey York.“Harvey said…”“What did he say?” Zack smiled.“Could it be that he told you he asked someone to send the invitation card here and let you come over?”“Yes.” Simon replied.“Pfft! Hahaha…”In the next second, the Zimmers roared with laughter. How could Simon and his family believe in Harvey’s clumsy lie?This was so funny!Senior Zimmer looked at Simon and said, “You’re still so stupid. I shouldn’t have brought your family to Buckwood back then. I truly feel ashamed!”It was apparent that Senior Zimmer had forgotten why the Zimmer family was able to come to Buckwood in the first placeFeeling the mocking gazes and merc
“Mr. York, Mrs. Zimmer, you’re both here. This is your invitation, please keep it well.”Yvonne Xavier handed the invitation to Harvey York respectfully. Then, she turned around and left.Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates were shocked beyond belief.‘Someone actually did send an invitation!’The Zimmers were also dumbstruck by this turn of events. Harvey York was not boasting, someone really did turn up to give an invitation!And the person was none other than Yvonne Xavier of Sky Corporation!What an honor!While Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates were still numb with shock, their family was respectfully invited into the banquet.The banquet was extremely crowded, and the spacious hall was flooded by people.Mandy Zimmer paid no attention to the full hall. Instead, she turned to flash Harvey a stern look. “Harvey, listen to me!”“Huh? Aren’t we already inside?”Harvey York was perplexed.‘We’re already in, what’s the problem now?’Mandy Zimmer told him seriously, “It’s true Miss
“Mother, brother!”Lilian was holding back her tears of joy. Finally, after being away from her family for so long, she was able to return to them!Simon was excited as well. He wanted to greet the family.His eyes lit up even more brightly after seeing Keith Yates.If he could be acquainted with this man, then his status in the Zimmers’ family would be solidified in the future.But before he could even utter a single word, Keith Yates simply nodded his head curtly.Grandma Yates, for her part, let out a cold harrumph. She glanced briefly at Mandy and her family, and then closed her eyes.Simon and Lilian were shocked.This was the best example of a cold shoulder!Embarrassing! Truly embarrassing!Keith Yates’ manners were still tolerable in Lilian Yates’ eyes.Naturally, her brother had barely accepted herself as family. As for her own mother, the old woman still needed a lot more time.If it weren’t for the fact that today was Grandma Yates’s birthday banquet, the old wom
At Harvey’s words, everyone flashed him looks of disgust.Especially Lilian, whose face was now as dark as night.She understood the kind of person that her mother was.Back when Lilian married Simon, he was still an ambitious man. Even then, Grandma Yates wanted to choke Lilian to death for her choice.Now that Mandy Zimmer’s husband said something that shameless, there was no way to make Grandma Yates look up to the family again.As predicted, Grandma Yates exhaled quietly, then spun on her heels and left. She didn’t even bat an eye at Mandy Zimmer’s family as she went away.Keith Yates glared at Harvey York coldly, then turned around and left as well.Since Mandy Zimmer was very capable in the eyes of the Yateses, they could accept her as a relative.But as she had married a man like Harvey, the whole family had to reconsider if they should actually accept her.“It’s fine, brother-in-law. Grandma Yates usually has a bad temper. It’ll be fine after a while,” Xynthia Zimmer t
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
After what Vaida had said, Harvey had no choice but to unlock the door. However, when Vaida glanced at the rear-view mirror, she said, "You get down!"Harvey had no choice but to shrug when being aimed with the repeating crossbow and got out of the driver's seat. Vaida quickly drove on the mechanic's truck and left like the wind. Shortly, several Toyota Prados appeared once more and headed straight toward the truck.Harvey looked at the scene and narrowed his eyes, seeming to be in deep thought. Then, he pulled out his mobile and dialed Geoffrey's personal number.When Geoffrey answered the call, he curiously asked, "What is it, friend?"Harvey replied with a smile. "Hello, Geoffrey. I'm supposed to be the mayor of Grand City, but the second I've arrived in Hyperborea, assassins are already here to kill me. And the person who wants to kill you and me is the same person.""You're in Hyperborea?" Geoffrey's voice became tense. "Who's the one who wants to kill you?""Ellena," stated
But just because Harvey was knowledgeable, it did not help. Several other plateless Toyota Prados drove in. All the windows from the passenger's side had been rolled down, showing individuals wearing military uniforms with heavy weapons in their hands.Harvey cursed as he immediately scouted around, thinking what he could use at a time like this.Vaida gave Harvey a look and showed off the repeating crossbow in her hand, then she quickly aimed and pulled the trigger.Whoosh!Silver bolts of light were fired at the cars, immediately piercing the Toyota Prados drivers. Then, there was an explosion. The Prados instantly turned into balls of fire as the vehicles were blown up.Harvey clicked his tongue. "These must be the legendary Thunderblasts. These are nice… They are more powerful than your usual weapons."Vaida coldly exclaimed, "Stop wasting your breath and start driving!"Harvey smiled and immediately hopped into the mechanic's truck and rammed through the chain fence surroun
Just when Harvey did not know how to respond, Vaida suddenly walked into the cockpit from behind. First, she glared at Harvey, then responded with Ellena's solemn voice. "It's done."When the person heard this voice, it was obvious that the man heaved a sigh of relief. "Land the plane on the last runway near the edge, then retreat immediately. Remember, don't leave any unfinished business behind. Our conversation is over." Then, the tone became engaged before it was completely cut off.Meanwhile, Harvey quickly took control of the plane's yoke and landed the plane successfully on the runway. The plane landed successfully. However, with one look outside, he suddenly frowned and said, "Something's not right. Go!"Then, Harvey dragged Vaida along with him and ran to the plane's emergency door. He opened the door and immediately jumped out.At this time, all the passengers in the first-class cabin finally got hold of themselves and started screaming and yelling. Instantaneously, the en
All the other passengers could only watch the sudden turn of events with mouths agape. It was as if they could not believe just how terrifying Vaida was. Even Harvey narrowed his eyes. He already knew that Vaida was a powerful martial artist and one that was close to losing control. But only now did he realize that the woman was trained in the legendary Basilisk Palm.It was a unique martial art from the tribes. While it was not exceptionally powerful, it was extremely venomous. Just one strike could make an elite like Ellena from Servitas lose power and control of her body, explaining just how terrifying this technique was.Before Harvey could say anything, Vaida had already picked up the revolver on the ground and immediately fired at her arms and legs. Then, she dislocated Ellena's jaw, making sure that Ellena could not kill herself no matter what.Vaida's directness made Ellena's eyes filled with rage. She could not believe that she still lost despite being in a situation wher
