The crowd went wild after hearing this and started to gossip frantically.Finn Yates’ identity was already so extraordinary. How much better would someone he personally praised be?A bewildered guest asked, “Didn’t the Yates family say that Finn is the most talented young man in his generation? Is there another brother-in-law that’s just as capable?”“How could it be possible for a granddaughter of the Yateses family to marry an ordinary person? No matter what, she’d definitely pick a wealthy and powerful man, right?”The crowds’ gazes shifted around, finally landing on Harvey York. At the sight of him, they began to tremble.“This man, his mannerisms…!”The Zimmers, who were in the crowd, all looked terribly anxious. When they heard the gossip, they exchanged glances and burst into quiet chuckles. Quinn Zimmer covered her mouth as she laughed. “Grandfather, now I finally know why the Yateses looked up to Mandy and her family!”“Harvey must have boasted up a storm!”“The Yate
At this very moment, Mandy Zimmer’s face had lost all color. She had no idea that word had spread this far.She didn’t know how to reply to Finn’s remark. When she finally came to her senses and was about to take a step forward to correct the misunderstanding, Harvey York suddenly cut her off.“Brother-in-law, I am indeed Prince York.”To Harvey York, it was fine if the Yates family knew of his true identity. He could even take a peek at their reactions.Hiss!The crowd sucked in a sharp breath of air right there and then.‘Is this man really Prince York?’‘He’s the man who controlled the Yorks and built a million-dollar company on his own!’‘The Yates family are about to be filthy rich!’Right now, Finn had no other thoughts.“Oh, good brother-in-law! The Yates family is in your hands! In the future, we will need you to support all of us!”Keith Yates had a profound look in his eyes.If the man in front of him really was Prince York, then the Yatese family should really
Slap!Under the crowds’ dumbfounded gaze, Grandma Yates swung her cane against Harvey’s back.After hitting him, she spat icily, “It’s important to know your own limitations! Aren’t you aware of your own abilities?”She then jabbed her cane in front of Simon and Lilian.“Properly discipline your live-in son-in-law! How is it that he cannot comprehend when to talk and when not to?”“If you don’t know how to teach him properly, then take him out here and leave!”“My birthday banquet is supposed to be a happy one, not a circus where a clown can act like an insane person!”Her words were too heavy.Simon and Lilian were dumbfounded. They could only bow their heads down and stay silent.Lilian had tears dripping down her face.This was her family!She dreamt of coming back to her family full of grace.Yet now that she returned, she was forced to endure shame of this magnitude!Right now, she wanted to hang herself.Embarrassing!How could she be able to raise her head up high
How shameful!Before, Lilian thought that she had already lived a shameful life in the Zimmer family.She didn’t think she could surpass the humiliation she felt today!Even Simon Zimmer was grinding on his teeth.They were here to get closer to the Yates family. Even if they could not bathe in the Yateses’ limelight, they could at least build some connections.But what happened in the end? Other than getting utterly humiliated, what did they gain?“Leave! You’ve embarrassed the whole Yates family!” Finn shouted, unable to hold himself back. “This is just outrageous!” “You can embarrass yourselves all you want, but don’t drag my father and grandmother into this!”“You all may not resent being shamed, but the family cannot lose face!”Finn remarked bitterly, resentful that Simon’s family did not meet his expectations. Simon and Lilian had no choice. They could only hang their heads low as they retreated from the hall.Mandy Zimmer and Xynthia Zimmer were about to leave as w
“Let’s hurry and get to the front. It’s almost our turn!”Simon and Lilian hurried to the front of the hall shamelessly, hoping for the moment for a counterattack.They began to imagine a scene where Grandma Yates smiled from ear to ear when she received their gift.“Up next is a pair of antique porcelain vases with a history that spans five hundred years! These were made out of official kilns during ancient times, and were extremely valuable. If someone were to collect the pair, the value would skyrocket!”The host continued reading out the list.Tanya Yates and Leyton Luv stood up, and respectfully congratulated Grandma Yates.“We wish you to have fortune that spreads across the seas and live as long as the mountains!”Grandma Yates wore a wide smile that could not be covered. She signalled the host to bring the pair of vases in front of her. She took a long look at them, nodding approvingly. “Oh, Tanya! You’re too sweet!”“Of course! I’ll do anything to satisfy you.” Tany
“You!”Grandma Yates trembled with fury.‘Why did Mandy Zimmer and her family give me a molding mudball?! Are they mocking me for still being alive at this age?!”“Sister, you don’t have to give Grandma Yates anything if you don’t want to! If you don’t have the money, anything would be better than this. Even just fruits will do!”Tanya Yates was speechless.In the beginning, she wanted to help her sister and put in some good words for Lilian.But Grandma Yates was already trembling in anger, and Tanya dared not provoke the old woman any further.Lilian Yates wanted to slam her head on the floor very badly.Things would still be fine if she and her husband didn’t walk up in front.But they did, and they became the center of attention in the entire hall… and then gave something like this!Embarrassing!Not only to her mother’s side of the family, but also to Buckwood. No, the entire South Light!‘I shouldn’t have come!’‘It’s all Harvey’s fault!’‘This man’s always doing mo
Mandy looked at Harvey and walked toward him, breathless. She exclaimed quietly, “Harvey, what are you trying to do?”“What can you do even if you keep staring at the gift box?”“A flower isn’t going to suddenly pop out just by you looking at it, right?”Harvey York frowned and replied, “You don’t understand. Master Naiswell gave me this before. It must be valuable!”Mandy Zimmer chuckled.‘Who do you think Master Naiswell is?’‘Alright, let’s say that the man looks up to you since you know how to appraise antiques.’‘But saying that he was the one who gave you this, who are you kidding?’The gift giving ceremony continued.Even Alex Swift and the others prepared their gifts.Of course, their gifts weren’t as extravagant as the rest, being only ordinary calligraphy and paintings of the sort.Still, they were all government officials. For them to attend the banquet was already the best gift they could offer. Grandma Yates would not dare to ask for anything more from them.Th
Everyone’s sights all fell on Harvey York. Once again, he had become the center of attention.Harvey York pointed at the mudball that was thrown to the ground by the host with a righteous face.The crowd glared at him with disdain after seeing his actions.‘This live-in son-in-law is shameless!’‘How dare he still speak at this point!’‘He clearly gave some sort of trash. How dare he say that his gift was the original pallet after he heard Keith Yates talk about it?!’‘That thing is South Light’s first-rated family, the Naiswell Patriarch, Shane Naiswell’s precious little baby!’‘It was said that the first-in-command of the military force in South Light asked for one before, but to no avail.’‘He’d give this to a live-in son-in-law like Harvey York? Why would he?’‘Is it because he's filth?!’“Harvey! What are you doing?! Stop playing around!”Mandy was on the verge of tears.‘Can’t he see what’s happening right now? Why is he still causing a ruckus?’‘Does he still think
When Harvey and the others heard about Journi, they were all shocked. All of them took out their phones and started to check the trending searches. Very quickly, the screenshots of the role model husband and wife cheating started to appear. Photos of them and the audio of them fighting slowly appeared.To most of the netizens, something like this was much better.Very quickly, the role model husband and wife became everyone's talking points. Countless moral crusaders started to condemn them with words. Some were laughing at them, cursing at them, speaking for them… The entire internet became very lively as different types of people took different stances.When their romantic partners were all revealed, it allowed people to build up their own scenarios in their head. Many people started to search for all kinds of evidence through the internet.As the netizens continued to discuss it, news about the Xaviers ceased becoming important. While there were still some people who had a pro
"If that really doesn't work, maybe Yvonne can hide for a while?" Rachel said after giving it a thought. While she didn't know much about the internet, she knew about one thing. Trends like this would only remain for a few days. Ignore them and they would go away pretty quickly."It won't be that easy this time," Harvey said as he shook his head. "Since Linus is the one who planned this, he would definitely watch how things are going. Once he noticed things didn't develop how he wanted them to be, he'd do something else instead. He may publish the second half of the video that we don't want to. In other words, we're in his complete control."Everyone looked at each other, not sure how to deal with this mess."Sir, it's not good if you don't tell me something is happening at home when I'm your assistant, right? Or do you think the Country H Commercial Group is too small, and we can't help you?" Just when everyone was getting a headache, a slender figure walked into the residence'
It was obvious everyone knew the kind of situation Yvonne was in, so none of them were in the mood to cook. Instead, they simply ordered some takeaway and tried to see what they could do about this as they had dinner."Sir, according to the clues we can cover, the one pushing and controlling this should be Linus. The data he had should be complete, but he knew we wouldn't publish the second half of the wedding, which was why they could do this without fear of reprisal," Ray said angrily."Also, all these people on the internet are so stupid. They started to spread rumors without knowing any truth… Damn them! Didn't they know they should let the bullets fly a little?"Tyson thought about that, and said, "Sir, give me the word and I'll be able to find all of them one by one. We'll make them pay for their mindless ramblings!"Harvey glared at him. "Do you think you're George? Find one for me, then. Not to mention, this isn't something that violence can solve.""But we can't let them
"Despite being one of the top ten families, they worked together with the Islanders to profit themselves. They allied themselves with our enemies and made the eldest of their daughters marry an Islander. The Xaviers, one of the most powerful families in Country H… Hmph. Just what kind of filth are they hiding under all the glamor?"Our people have been at the top of the world for so many years, but now, there are those that kneel to some Islanders? Disgraceful! Shameful!"After Linus had gone to the rest stop, several of the most famous message boards on the internet started to show some hot searches which included words like top ten families, collusion, Islanders, and words like that. These words are all very eye-catching, and since there are people intentionally pushing things along, a series of events very quickly occurred on the internet.First of all, someone summarized that the Xaviers of Wolsing, one of the top ten families, were in a state of weakening. Then, someone pointed
Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Early?"Yvonne nodded. "Correct. According to our sources, he went to a rest stop about 10 miles away from Wolsing to pick up someone."Harvey was quite curious. "Who can make Linus so passionate to welcome? Who is this person?"Yvonne massaged her forehead. "Speaking of which, this man can be considered your subordinate in a way. Unfortunately, it's fate that he won't be under your control."Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds?""That's right. The scion of the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds in Parkerville, Dan Parker. Previously, he requested to marry someone from the Wright family, and the Wright family had officially responded. He'll soon be the son-in-law of the Wright family," Yvonne explained sternly.Harvey was slightly stunned. "The son-in-law of the Wright family? Which means…Sienna's fiancé?"Meanwhile, at the rest stop 10 miles away… The rest stop which was usually quite plain was lavishly
Harvey had been freed, but there was still some paperwork that needed to be done.Harvey was patient, as if he really wanted the key to the city and prevent Country A from trying to stir up another storm with him. He was very cooperative throughout the entire process.Only once all the paperwork was done did Soren sigh in relief. "Leave the rest to us, Harvey. In the next few days, stay discreet so no one will get you into any problem.""What? I've already proven that I'm innocent. What kind of problems will there be?" Harvey said curiously.Soren didn't want to hide anything from Harvey and said with a bitter smile, "I won't lie to you. While the people who died were from Country H, they had already obtained permanent residency in Country A, which meant that they were a part of Country A as well. Just today, Country A's side had already given us pressure through their embassy."Logically speaking, we have to find the culprit as soon as possible. However, all the evidence we've co
Ten minutes later, Soren personally asked Harvey to join him in the director's office. After a pot of hot tea had been brewed and poured, he sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for today. It's my subordinates' blunders. He did whatever he wanted already despite just being promoted. I'll be sure to make up to you."Harvey smiled. "I can understand that with your family's size, you'll inadvertently end up with a few people with questionable behavior. You better keep an eye on things and don't let one person ruin everything for you and your family. Wolsing is different from Golden Sands. You have to be extremely careful when you're here."Harvey's words were cold, but it was enough to make Soren think about it. Meanwhile, Garrick, who was standing there with his arms next to him, almost fell on his knees as he felt his legs lose strength. Since simple words from Harvey had already ended his future."Of course… It's best if someone can correct themselves after knowing the errors of their
"Ha! What an idiot! Who does he think he is? If he really is someone important, why is he even here?" Snowe sneered.The only emotion Snowe had for Harvey was disdain. She despised men who have no capabilities at all the most.Garrick and the others went to the main hall of the precinct. Everyone from Country A had been told to go home. At this moment, a row of cars with flags drove toward the entrance of the precinct. Judging from the car plates and the flags on the car, it was obvious the person inside the car was someone important within the police force. Very quickly, the door was opened. Garrick and the others saw the most important and newly promoted man within the police force in Wolsing—Soren Braff, ranked two within the Braff family.There were several high-level members of the police force with him in white uniforms, and all of them exuded an incredibly powerful presence. The moment Garrick and the others saw Soren appearing, they quickly greeted him with a smile."Wh
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
