“What happened?”Harvey York slightly frowned. Mandy Zimmer rarely showed such an expression.Mandy said solemnly, “The news that I’m going to expand the company got out. Just now, Grandmother and Uncle called me and said that they would like to buy shares.”Harvey frowned and said, “Buy shares? How will they invest? Could they even get a hold of that much money?”Mandy said, “Uncle’s point is that they will give the company a blank note for the time being. They will make up for it when they earn money in the future.”Harvey was speechless when he heard this.The Yates family was trying to mug them shamelessly.Mandy’s complexion was awful, but she sighed and said, “You go to the Yates family with me. We have to resolve this matter. Otherwise, with Uncle’s connections in Buckwood, we might get into serious trouble.”Soon, Harvey and Mandy arrived at the Yates family’s residence.The Yates family specially arranged a banquet to entertain Mandy.“Mandy, have you thought about w
Mandy Zimmer took a deep breath when she heard this. She said, “Grandmother, although the equity of this company is in my hands and also the CEO, the one in control of the company right now is Sky Corporation.“So, I actually can’t make the decision!”Grandma Yates shook her head and said, “This isn’t something you need to worry about!“As long as you promise Grandmother and let the Yates family buy shares. We don’t need much. Just ten percent will do.“Then, give up thirty percent of your forty-nine percent equity to us. In this case, the control of the company will be in the Yates family’s hands!“With the Yates family as your backer, you can develop your company however you want!“In the future, we could even transfer all of the company’s assets without anyone noticing!“Mandy, in this case, the Yates family will be the next top family in South Light in the future!“Just do as I say, and you’ll be the great heroin of the Yates family in the future!“I can discuss with your
Mandy Zimmer did not believe it. What a beautiful gift!This office building could be rented for at least 3.1 million dollars a year. However, the other party did not ask for a single penny and only requested to purchase a villa.Harvey smiled. This office building was under his name now. He could just give it to Mandy if he wanted to.Nonetheless, he knew he would undoubtedly scare Mandy if he actually did that.That was why he found such an excuse.He also asked Tara Lewis to help him forge this contract.Harvey smiled at this moment and said, “Mandy, I heard that the boss of this building and Senior Armstrong are good friends. Moreover, he was also wealthy. They are not short of this amount of money at all.”“I think, since the other party is willing to rent the building to us, we should do them a favor and give them the villa. What do you think?”Mandy looked speechless. She let out a sigh after a moment and said, “These rich people certainly have weird personalities.“In
The entire Yates family was bewildered.As it turned out, they had already checked the assets that Silver Nimbus Enterprise owned through their sources.They had already discussed beforehand about the cash flow and how they would split the assets and money when they take control of the company.In the Yates family’s eyes, their money was the one being used!“How dare you?!”I was plain to see that Grandma Yates was enraged.“Doesn’t that bastard know that Silver Nimbus Enterprise belongs to the Yates family?!“Who gave her the guts to use up our money haphazardly?!”Grandma Yates was utterly outraged. In her eyes, the Silver Nimbus Enterprise belonged to the Yates family.Mandy Zimmer was only a caretaker for the assets. She was not entitled to spend any of the Yates family’s money!“Where did they move to?” Keith Yates asked while barely keeping his composure.Leyton Luv then replied, “The new location is right beside Buckwood Tower and the Olden Trade. The office building
“This little bastard, she’s sullying the Yates family’s dignity!”“How did a first-rate family like ours even bring up a woman like this?!”“Clearly this woman dares to fight against us. She thinks that all is well if she finds a wealthy lover.”The Yates family was infuriated.Even though the Yates family was one of the first-rated families, they were only supported by Keith Yates’ position of power.In truth, the Yates family was not financially stable at all. They might not even compare to some ordinary second-rated families.This time, the Yates family was determined to claim Silver Nimbus Enterprise. The Yates family was excited to use this chance to swiftly climb to the top of the ranks while bathing in glory and riches.But not only Mandy’s obstinacy, but she was also extravagant. In the Yates family’s eyes, she was rebellious.Grandma Yates shuddered in anger, especially, when she thought that she would have the Silver Nimbus Enterprise to herself and turning the Yates
After hearing Harvey York’s words, the store clerk asked while showing a face full of ridicule, “I’m afraid we’ll have to disappoint you. The restaurant of our dealership is being cleaned today.”“I suggest you turn left from here to head toward the Benz 4S car dealership. Their customer meals aren’t bad either!”The motor city had an unspoken rule. The customers could have a meal in the 4S car dealerships when they would visit in the afternoon.Because of this unspoken rule, this caused quite a few people prefer to look at cars during lunchtime while having a complimentary meal at the same time.In actuality, the 4S car dealerships would be willing to serve customers inclined to buy cars.But Harvey York, in front of the store clerks, seemed like he did not have the capacity to buy a car.The store clerks were extremely annoyed by people who seemed like they did not have the money while still pretending to look for cars and then ask for a customer meal. They immediately looked f
Harvey York sized up Leia Mills and barely remembered who she was.Leia Mills was a maid of the York family a few years ago, the ones that were responsible for serving plates and washing toilets.Despite Harvey being a discreet man back then, he would still visit the Silver Nimbus Courtyard.Even though the woman did not know who Harvey actually was, she knew that he was one of the Yorks.Every time that she saw him, she would most likely kneel in front of him.Who would’ve thought that she would be the BMW 4S car dealership manager after so many years?She was doing quite well for herself.“Hm, it’s Leia. Long time no see.”Harvey smiled.“But since you’ve already become a manager, you have to manage your subordinates properly. I’m a customer looking to buy a car. Why won’t they let me in?”Leia let out a snort and replied, “Dear Sir York, I think these people are doing their job just fine!“Do you think that I don’t follow the news?“The York family had already been bankr
Harvey York went inside the Bentley 4S car dealership without even looking back.The store clerks in the BMW 4S car dealership saw the sight and could not hold in their laughter.“Manager, should we head over to see him make a fool out of himself?”Leia Mills smiled and replied, “No need for that, he’s just a poor loser. What can he even afford?“He can’t buy anything from a BYD, let alone a Bentley!“He can’t even walk through the entrance!”After her speech, she walked back inside the dealership while coldly chuckling.After arriving at the Bentley 4S car dealership, the store clerks at the entrance did not embarrass Harvey.“Mister, are you interested in a specific car? Or would you like me to briefly introduce them to you?”A store clerk with long legs, Layla Darcie, smiled while walking toward Harvey. She did not seem like she was looking down on him just because he wore simple clothing.Harvey curiously looked at Layla and asked, “The BMW 4S and your car dealership are
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
Daichi had already checked the Chapter of Ascension earlier back in Grand City, but he could not leave with it. Only after Harvey gave his green light would Rachel pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi.Harvey gave Kenta a look and then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "Pass him the thing and escort him out."Harvey was straight-faced when he said that. While he had read it through, he did not believe that the Chapter of Ascension would really allow one to reach Unity between Nature and Man. It was not that Harvey was underestimating Hale, but as a martial art elite himself, he knew very well that there were many things required an epiphany to comprehend, and not just some so-called Chapter of Ascension.If that thing was really as effective as people said, Hale would not be hunted for more than a decade. In no time, a few hours went by. Kenta picked up his phone and after listening to the other side, he smiled. "You really are an honest man. Working with you is a very pl
Kenta continued to speak to Harvey in a chatty manner. "Everyone here can see how powerful you are. Unless we can kill you without any doubt, we won't be able to survive your revenge later on. That's why… You can trust me."Harvey looked at Kenta coldly. "Of course you won't be able to kill me. However, I need to make sure Mandy and my men are safe. That's why there's no need to waste your breath here."All you need to do is to give me an answer. Will you come with us? Before we leave, someone will let Daichi examine the Chapter of Ascension. Once we've left Sky Plane for about an hour, that person will then pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi. Don't worry. I'm a man of my word."Kenta smiled. "We'll believe you if you're willing to personally guarantee it. It's decided then. I believe we can work well together. Now, let's go."As soon as Kenta finished saying that, he waved his hand. All the Islander elites stepped aside despite the weapons in their hands. This was also a way
Slap!Harvey gave another slap at Jun's face."So what if I did? I'll kill you if you waste anymore of my time!" Before Jun could even finish, Harvey had already grabbed him by his neck. Onmyojis are physically weaker than most, so Jun could not fight back at all while being held like that."You fool! Release Mr. Jun!""Mr. Jun is one of the best among the onmyojis in Sky Plane!""Don't show any disrespect!"All the Islanders roared when they saw Harvey disrespected Jun so much. They quickly drew their long swords and pointed them at Harvey. Dozens of people also started to approach Mandy. Clarion and the others also reacted quickly, protecting Mandy behind them. The atmosphere between both sides became extremely tense in just one moment.Harvey's hand never released Jun's throat as he calmly turned to Kenta and said, "Alright, Kenta. Let's continue the discussion of our three conditions. The first condition is that you must escort us out of Sky Plane and guarantee our safety. A
"You really are very impressive, Kenta. It's quite rare for someone like you to exist within the Fujihara family," commented Harvey after he took a deep breath and loosened his fists. "I have a feeling that someone like you will eventually climb up the ladder. Who knows, you might be the next Island Nation's Emperor."All the Islanders around them had strange looks after they heard what Harvey had just said. Even Kenta's eyes twitched before he replied helplessly, "You're joking, Mr. Harvey. I'm just someone from the branch family. The emperor's throne has always belonged to the main branch and the main branch alone."Then, Kenta changed the subject after that. "Since it sounds like you have a change of mind, does it mean you're willing to fulfill your part of the promise?"Harvey calmly said, "Not exactly. This is just a simple trade, and so is the trade's content. I'll give you the Chapter of Ascension, and you promise three things. That's reasonable…"At this point, the mysterio
Looking at Kenta's expression, Harvey's eyes narrowed. The Islanders could become fanatical most of the time, and he knew that very well from how Kenta was presenting himself. Their people believed in collectivism to the point of radicalism. One single word from their superiors was enough to make them sacrifice themselves and fight to the bitter end, not to mention if they were convinced if it was for the greater good.In short, if he really refused to give them the Chapter of Ascension, then Kenta would really give up on this pretentious act and detonate the Emerald Jewel. However, while the Emerald Jewel could injure him, he knew it could not kill him. But, Mandy and the others were another case entirely. If the Emerald Jewel was detonated, none of them could escape.Harvey frowned, realizing that the situation was getting more complicated."Mr. Harvey, you understand that the Chapter of Ascension isn't worth the lives of the people here. Not to mention if you do manage to obtain
"Firstly, this is Sky Plane. This is the Sacred Martial Art Training Ground for the Island Nation. Based on the promise made between each of the Sacred Training Grounds, we can consider one as hostile if they enter without an invitation. That's why when you barged into this place without invitation and were suspected of murdering the citizens of Sky Plane, we have the right to stop you from leaving the place and investigate."Secondly, Mr. Sora is a citizen of Sky Plane. It is within reason for us to protect his safety. Thirdly, Grand City will need to give us a reasonable explanation for this."And finally, if any of you refuse to cooperate, then according to the laws of Sky Plane's Admin Board, we have the right to kill all the intruders!" said Kenta with a wide grin."I know you're extremely strong, Mr. Harvey. So strong that you're the best here. But the question is, what's the use if you have personal strength in this situation? Even if you can defeat a hundred, can you defeat
"Mr. Harvey, I know how powerful you are and how invincible you can be. I also have a lot of respect toward you and wouldn't dare show you any insolence," explained Kenta with a harmonious smile. "However, I need to negotiate with you as it's part of my duties. I hope you can calm down so we can talk."First of all, Ms. Mandy is alright. While it looks like you have to come and save her, you need to trust me when I said if it's not for our effort, the men from Origin Sword Style wouldn't have waited until today. With their powers, if we didn't try and stop them with everything we can, Ms. Mandy would be a corpse now. You have to give credit where credit is due, don't you think? I believe someone of your caliber won't deny it, right?"Secondly, I can swear by the name of the Ruling Royal Family that everything that happened today had nothing to do with us. Since we have decided to make a trade with you, we won't stab you in the back. Our conscience is clear when it's regarding this."
