Chapter 972

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Yvonne Xavier tilted her head up after a moment of dead silence to look at Jesse Xavier.

“Cousin Jesse, I’m not marrying anyone.”

Jesse chuckled, not saying another word.

Ivan Xavier then exclaimed, “Yvonne, you don’t have the right to speak in front of our great grandmother!”

“You’re but a collateral relative. You’re already lucky enough that the prince of the Leo family isn’t disgusted by you. What right do you have to give him the cold shoulder?” Rita Lawson scolded Yvonne with an expression as cold as ice.

Yvonne coldly glared back at her aunt.

“Aunty, I’ll decide what happens to my own body. None of your opinions matter.”

Slap!

Rita Lawson walked up toward her and gave her a slap across her face, then exclaimed furiously, “How presumptuous! I can’t believe you’re this disobedient! Are you not even going to listen to what our great grandmother has to say?”

After Yvonne was slapped, Harvey York, that was standing at the entrance, could not bear to see the sight any longer.

    “Mom, this has nothing to do with him. Just let him go.”Yvonne Xavier subconsciously stood in front of Harvey York at this moment, not wanting him to be hurt.The middle-aged woman that Yvonne called her mom was none other than Iona Sherman, Yvonne’s stepmother.After her father passed away, Iona Sherman was her closest relative in public.She furiously scolded Yvonne, “You spoiled goods. You still call me your mom?“What? Your heart broke when I hit your lover?“Don’t be shameless like your father, not knowing courtesy and shame, outside looking for women every day!”Iona then shifted her cold gaze back toward Harvey after her speech, then said coldly, “A so-called prince like you only dares to take cover behind a woman? You’re just as useless as the legends say that you are!”Harvey looked deeply into Iona’s eyes, then covered Yvonne behind his back and quietly whispered, “It’s fine. I can handle things like this.”After seeing Yvonne and Harvey as if they were lovers, Iona

    Harvey York did not sit down.Jesse Xavier did not mind at all but sipped on his tea without a care for the world.“Grandma Xavier’s always been like this. She wouldn’t even care about anybody that she isn’t interested in.“As for Yvonne, she was a granddaughter that Grandma Xavier really adored before. But because of you, she became a laughing stock in all of Wolsing’s upper social circle. You tell me, how are you going to pay for this?”Harvey frowned.“I have nothing to do with her, we…”Before Harvey York could even finish his sentence, Jesse let out a puff of air.“Harvey, we’re all men here. Should I be more blunt with this?”“Secretary this, secretary that. If there’s something up, the secretary does it. If there’s none, do the secretary. I’m not the one that made this up.”Harvey was utterly speechless after hearing his words.He was definitely taking the blame for this, no matter what.Yvonne Xavier opened her mouth, but she ultimately could not say a word.Jesse X

    “Yvonne, I already told you. Harvey’s ambition is terrifyingly big.“A man like this will never be subdued under another.“If you choose him, you’ll live a life full of pain and suffering.”Sheldon Xavier let out a sigh. He admired Harvey York because of his true identity.Even though the Xaviers from Wolsing did not look up to his status as Prince, they would try their best to avoid conflict with the man if his other identity was revealed.But Sheldon did not once hope that his own granddaughter is involved with Harvey.“Listen to your grandfather. You should be picking Chris Leo. Or maybe you looked up to another person, even if it’s a beggar. If you say the word, I can make him into a man.”“I’ll allow anyone but him!”Yvonne then coldly replied, “Grandfather, don’t forget our promise before. Are you saying all these things to try to break the promise now?”After seeing Yvonne’s stubborn look, Sheldon then let out another sigh.“Right, the fifteen-day promise isn’t far awa

    Sky Corporation, CEO’s office.The CEO’s office felt a bit empty due to Yvonne’s absence.The office desk, which was clean before, was covered with documents that had piled up like a mountain.Seeing this, Harvey couldn’t help but smile bitterly.He never took notice of his habit of making Yvonne do all the work while doing nothing himself in the past, and how much of his work Yvonne had done for him. Staring at Yvonne’s desk, Harvey muttered to himself, “Don’t worry. No one in this world can force you to do anything.”“Not the Leos of Hong Kong…”“Nor the Xaviers from Wolsing.”About half an hour later, the sound of knocking came on the CEO’s office door. Ray Hart entered respectfully.“Have you checked thoroughly?” Harvey asked.Ray answered seriously, “Prince, I’ve investigated the matter. But because we assigned someone else to check this, our identities might get exposed.”“It’s alright, pass me the documents.” Harvey said casually.The moment Harvey assigned Ray to s

    At the same night, Chris Leo and the others received a message.Chris held the letter, which was blood red colour, for a long time before chuckling. “Prince York is truly arrogant and forceful. He’s basically forcing me to take back my marriage proposal!”“No, not only taking back my marriage proposal…he’s trying to step on our heads. Us, the Leos of Hong Kong! Is he worthy enough to do that?”Stephen York, who was sitting opposite of him, smiled. “Prince York is being too rash this time.”“Although he got rid of the Surreys and Ryan Gotti, this letter of his is no different from pushing the Robbins and the rest of three first-class families to our side.”“This is getting interesting.”Chris said casually, “Of course it’s interesting! Callum Robbins and the others have contacted me to discuss the countermeasures. This time, we’ll let them be the pawn before the horse. You and I can definitely reap the benefits out of this whole thing!”When he finished speaking, Chris and Stephe

    Meanwhile, at Buckwood Airport.Some people were exiting the VIP passageway. The ones at the top front were none other than Zack and Quin Zimmer.The only difference was that these two, who used to be so arrogant and superior in the past, now appeared more like servants.The one walking behind them was a young man in an embroidered suit, wearing an ice cold expression.Right then, he said, “Zack, Quinn. Don’t say that I haven’t given you two any chances!”“If you do well enough and succeed in inviting Senior Oskar Armstrong back to Mordu, the Jeans will allow you to work as our servants.”“If you fail, then scram! Our family has so many dogs, we wouldn’t care if we lost one or two!”Zack nodded and bowed. “Master Grey Jean, you don’t have to worry. We will do our best! Buckwood is our site, so we’ll definitely succeed at our task this time.”Quinn, on the other hand, squeezed out a suggestive smile and purred, “Master Grey Jean, you must be tired from travelling. Tonight, I’ll

    “CEO, who are you going to welcome? Why do you need the shabbiest car for this?”Yvonne was confused. Who would make a request like this?Harvey said, “You don’t know that this person enjoys going to the battlefield when he has nothing to do. He likes shabby and worn-out vehicles the most. He wouldn’t want to sit in a luxurious car.”Although Yvonne had no idea what kind of person Harvey would be welcoming, since he requested, she had to follow it.Not long after, a van that was at least around ten years old was driven to the front door of Sky Corporation.Harvey asked Ray Hart to be the driver before speeding towards Buckwood Airport.When they arrived at the airport, Ray was astonished at the scene before him.The airport was extremely crowded, with many luxurious cars waiting outside.Maybach, Bentley, Rolls-Royce… Almost every other luxury brand could be seen. An outsider might even think this was an exhibition of luxury cars.The fact that Harvey and Ray drove over in a s

    Grey Jean let out a ‘pfft’ of laughter. “If I’m here, how can he stand any chance at all?”The Jeans of Mordu were one of the top ten families of Country H. Although they were placed ninth, Grey believed none of these useless nobodies here would have a higher status than him.Zack asked sinisterly, “Master Jean, do you want me to bring people to catch that guy?’“No need to rush. Now is the time to settle official matters. Women can wait anytime.”Grey replied casually. He knew how to differentiate between serious and less pressing matters.Not far from Grey was Carson Cloude, Callum Robbins, and Keith Yates. They were standing together shoulder to shoulder.When they saw Harvey walking in, Keith furrowed his eyebrows and said with a low voice, “Why is that piece of trash here? What an embarrassment!”Harvey was the Yateses’ grandson-in-law. If he did anything humiliating here, it would reflect badly on the Yates family.Callum smiled. “Don’t panic, old Yates.

    Blade took a deep breath. He remembered his own duty and stood in front of Clarion, shielding him. Then, he said with a cold expression on his face, "Madam, Mr. Zeon, my apologies. However, as I'm currently the Assistant Hallmaster and Clarion is my superior, it's my duty to protect him. May I ask how he offended the two of you to the point that he pressed the red button?"Blade put on the face of someone who was only doing his job. He was loyal to his duties.Clarion's expression changed. He did not realize that Blade was a Jackson. However, since Blade chose duty over his personal ties, it was enough to calm Clarion down.Whoosh!At the moment when everything was at a standstill, Zeon suddenly stepped forward and appeared right before the crowd. He immediately slapped Blade's face.Slap!He slapped Blade so hard and loud that Blade stumbled backward as he was not on his guard and almost fell on the floor. Luckily, Clarion reacted quickly and helped Blade up. Otherwise, Blade wo

    "I'll give you one last chance to answer me. If you refuse, it won't be my fault for not showing you any mercy." Camellia's pretty face became colder as she stared at Clarion before waving her right hand.After what she did, she saw all the security from Platinum Casino stepped forward, as if they were ready to make a move at any time.Clarion smiled. "Looks like not only have you captured him, it doesn't sound like you're going to release him at all. Looks like I mean nothing to you madam!"Camellia sat down back on the sofa as she folded her legs once more. She raised her chin as she looked at Clarion, coldly saying, "You're right. You mean nothing to me. What? Are you going to go mad? Do it, then! Show it to me! I'm curious to see just what our Young Master Clarion Parker can do to make a scene!"Clarion took a deep breath and coldly replied, "Don't blame me for this, then!"After that, Clarion's right hand pulled out a small red button and pressed it.Vroom!As soon as he di

    "All your casino shares?" Camellia stroked her chin as she gave Clarion a meaningful smile. "If I remember, they all add up to hundreds of millions of dollars, and the interest you gain annually is also quite substantial. Without that, your worth as the heir of Parkerville will drop significantly."Looks like Hale probably saved your life. Otherwise, you wouldn't have paid such a price for a garbage like him," Camellia's eyes were judgmental when she said those words. She stared at Clarion curiously, wanting to see something from his actions and expressions.Unfortunately, Clarion maintained his cool and indifference."Madam, it'll take a long time to talk about the relationship between us. Hence, there's no need for me to explain everything here. All I want to ask is, will you accept this trade?"Camellia once again walked over to Clarion's side and bent closer, whispering in his ears. "Of course I'm willing, since you're offering me so much. Unfortunately, since I don't have Hale

    When Clarion saw how Camellia pushed her face closer to his face, he had to use so much effort to stop himself from immediately slapping her.Harvey's expression was also getting colder as he stared at Camellia. He had to admit it. If she was willing, she could easily make many people furious. That was why Harvey calmed himself down even more and was not rushing to make his move. Instead, he calmly observed Clarion, wanting to see how he would deal with this.He believed this simple confrontation would make Clarion grow quickly. It would be a good thing if there was someone who could compete with Dan among the heirs of Grand City.Slap!When Camellia saw that Clarion would not touch her, she smiled coldly and once again slapped Clarion on the face."Pathetic! You really are useless! No wonder Dan openly admitted that someone like you is not qualified to be his right-hand man!" Camellia publicly humiliated Clarion's character and dignity.A man who would not even resist was worse

    "I also know why you captured Hale. But madam… A simple thought is all it takes. If Hale had mastered the so-called Chapter of Ascension, he would already be invincible in this world. He wouldn't fall into someone's grasp so easily," said Clarion as if he was explaining Camellia for her own good."Not to mention that possessing the Chapter itself is simply going to bring you trouble. I'm also saving you by taking Hale away. I hope you'll agree to my decision. This is really for your own good."Camellia let out a cold laugh when she heard Clarion's reasoning. "Judah, aren't you a little too confident of yourself? You attacked my people, threatened me to release the man, and said this is for my own good? Since when has Parkerville stopped practicing martial arts and started to teach acting skills instead?"Camellia walked over and immediately slapped Clarion on the face. "You fool! Do you think I will act for your sake?"Slap!Clarion could not help but take a few steps back, his fa

    "Clarion, you've always been a good boy. You can always read the atmosphere whenever you do something," Camellia said to Clarion with a sweet smile. "The reason you came to my Platinum Casino must be because you're ready to pass your position in Earth Hall back to my son, correct? If that's the case, I don't mind accepting it. But if it's something else, my apologies then. I don't have the strength to care about anything else now that I'm too worried about my son."Zeon gave Clarion a dry smile. "You do understand what she's talking about, right? Now, quickly give us the power over Earth Hall. That way, we have some room for discussion. Otherwise…"Then, Zeon put something thumb-sized on the coffee table. Quite a few people raised their eyebrows when they saw what it was. It was the Martial Art Weapon, Thunderblast!That bastard really was quite crazy. He did not even prepare any precaution when handling something like the Thunderblast, walking around with it so recklessly. Was he n

    Before Clarion could even decide, Neve already forced her way forward and shielded Clarion behind her. She yelled at Zeon, "Stop pushing it, Zeon! Enough is enough! Do you really think you can have your way with us?!"Zeon gave a wicked smile and wanted to say something when Camellia, who had been watching things unfold, clapped her hands. She instantly attracted everyone's attention, and her delicate voice rang. "Zeon, that's enough. Clarion is still a member of Grand City, regardless of what had happened. We've raised him for so long, he wouldn't kneel and grovel before another man just because he was being waved at, right?"Trust him. He won't be such a doormat, will he? Not to mention that if you let him lick your shoe, he's going to ruin it. This is something I bought for you from Givenchy, so stop wasting it. Not to mention, if Mr. Otto finds out about this, what would you do if he fainted? You have to pay some respect to our elders, alright?"Then, Camellia gave Clarion a dee

    "Now… Do you think I won't have the guts to kill you?" Zeon then spun the pistol in his hand using his finger and then pointed it at Clarion's forehead again. He thought he looked cool doing that.Then, his finger slowly tightened around the trigger, and the spring in the trigger was pulled tight, ready to fire. Even Clarion, who fancied himself as someone who did not fear death, could feel his breathing becoming rapid.It was obvious that Zeon really wanted to kill Clarion as his murderous intention flared.While it was well known that White Peak was filled with all kinds of madmen, they did not expect Zeon to be so terrifying when he lost his mind!Neve already wanted to step forward to stop it, but the muzzle on her head made her scared of making any sudden moves. Meanwhile, Harvey simply looked at what was happening calmly.Now was not the time to make a move. Others might believe that Zeon would really pull the trigger, but Harvey understood much about these heirs who were al

    Clarion cleared his throat as he caught everyone's attention before bowing at Camellia. "Hello, madam. Please forgive me for dropping by unannounced."Before Camellia could even say anything, Zeon already smiled coldly at him. He stood up and walked over to Clarion and patted Clarion's face as he said in an icy tone, "And you do realize you're not invited? If you want to apologize, show us your sincerity. You can start with prostrating. I believe the madam won't put too much blame on you."All the men and women sneeringly looked at Clarion. It would be rare to see the heir from a huge family in Grand City prostrate. Quite a few already instinctively pulled out their phone, wanting to take photos of it.When Neve saw what had happened, she frowned. "Are you an idiot, Zeon? Why do you think Clarion will kneel?""He won't?" Zeon scoffed, pulled out a pistol, and immediately put the muzzle on Clarion's head. "Now, will you kneel?"Clarion was also someone with a temper. He glared at Z
