Chapter 10

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
The next morning, Harvey who was still bleary-eyed and with messy hair went to the most prosperous business district in Niumhi by his electric bike.

York Enterprise was located in this prime location.

Yonathan called him last night and said that he had already completed the handover procedures for York Enterprise. If he signed the papers today, the company would belong to him.

Harvey was quite concerned about this matter. After all, he bought the company with ten billion dollars. That was why he had rushed here early in the morning without eating any breakfast.

Harvey was speechless when he reached the company. No wonder it was the most prosperous area in Niumhi. There were luxury cars everywhere. He rode on his electric bike here. If he just parked his bike casually, it would probably be carried away later.

He took a circle around the company and finally found a parking space at the gate. He suddenly heard a squeal of brakes as soon as he had parked his bike.

Then there was a bang. His electric bike went flying after being knocked by a Porsche.

“Damn!”

Harvey was speechless. His electric bike was so unlucky. The battery was just stolen a few days ago and now it was hit by a Porsche.

Anyway, the Porsche was a luxury car. There were only a few scratches on the Porsche. However, his electric bike was scrapped at the rear, and it was impossible to ride it now.

‘The electric bike has been with me for three years!’

Harvey wanted to cry. He was very attached to this electric bike.

Meanwhile, there were also a lot of people who came up to see what had happened.

The Porsche’s car paint was very expensive. Could this guy who was riding the electric bike afford to pay for it?

“How do you ride the bike?” A beautiful woman pushed open the Porsche door and walked down, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Wow…”

The people around were in awe of her beauty. This woman was wearing an exquisitely professional attire and walked in high heels. She was so elegant, just like a lady that came out from a painting.

Such beauty would be in the spotlight wherever she went.

“Wendy?” Harvey smiled. What a coincidence. He did not expect to meet his old classmate on his first day at work.

Although she did crash into his electric bike and him, he would forget about it since she was his old classmate.

Harvey did not intend to hold her responsible and was ready to go up to say hello. At this moment, Wendy saw him.

“It’s you? Harvey? Why are you here?”

Wendy became nervous. Harvey bluffed the classmates at the Platinum Hotel last night. Why was he here today? Did he follow her? Did he come to scam other people?

Wendy was filled with hatred when she thought of this. She bought this Porsche with a loan and spent more than seven hundred thousand dollars. She cherished her car very much. She never thought that this scammer would add a few more scratches on it today. She did not know how much it would cost to repair it.

“Harvey, why are you doing bad things? You even learn to scam people!” Wendy said aggressively.

“This, you are the one who crashed into me, okay?” Harvey looked speechless. “I initially wanted to just let it go since we were classmates. How could you say that I hit you?”

“What happened?” At this moment, a middle-aged strong man walked over quickly. He was the company’s security chief. He brought a group of gruesome guards along.

Seeing this scene, the security chief recognized Wendy and quickly said, “Miss Sorrell, what happened?”

There were rumors that Wendy would be promoted to the position of general manager. Hence, the security chief was anxious to find an opportunity to flatter around her, shamelessly sucking up.

“Can’t you see?” Wendy said coldly.

The security chief smiled and said, “Miss Sorrell, you can rest assured, I will deal with him for you.”

He walked up to Harvey as he was talking. He kicked the electric bike and shouted. “Who are you? Don’t you know that this is the exclusive parking space of York Enterprise? You are not allowed to park your electric bike here!”

“Oh, it’s so cool, who made this rule?” Harvey said coldly. He was not angry at first, but when he saw someone kicking his electric bike, he could not help it.

“Who made it? Of course, it’s me!” The security chief said coldly, “Don’t talk nonsense. Just pay for the damages and apologize to Miss Sorrell, or else, I will send you to the police station today.”

Wendy slightly frowned hearing the security chief’s words. She then said, “Forget it, it shouldn’t be made easy for him. Just let him pay for the damages. Don’t send him to the police.”

Harvey glanced at Wendy. He did not expect her to still have a little kindness. However, he still pointed at the electric bike on the ground and said, “Open your eyes and see clearly. I parked here first. Then she crashed into me. I’m already very nice for not asking her to pay for my damages. Instead, you want me to pay for her damages. Are you out of your mind?”

“You!” The security chief pointed at Harvey. “Is this guy stupid? Miss Sorrell has already decided not to call the police, but why are you still insisting that she pays for your damages? Who would drive a Porsche and hit your electric bike?”

He gritted his teeth and continued, “Look carefully, these are our company’s private parking spaces. Outsiders are not allowed to park here.”

“Oh, what a coincidence? I am also working in this company.” Harvey shrugged.

“Then how do you dare to offend Miss Sorrell? She could easily make you lose your job with just a sentence.” The security chief looked at Harvey pitifully.

‘This kid is so poor. His clothes were bought from the stalls on the roadside. He rides on an electric bike to work. He should be a cleaner, right? If he offended Miss Sorrell, I’m afraid that he wouldn’t even have to wash the toilet, right?’

“Who is this? Why haven’t I seen him before? Isn’t he afraid of offending Miss Sorrell?”

“Yeah, we are all on the same side. Why go through all that trouble?”

“Maybe he just wants to attract Miss Sorrell’s attention!”

“It makes sense! It turns out that he’s a toad trying to swallow a swan! Does he not look at himself in the mirror? He’s wearing cheap clothes. What is he thinking?”

Harvey remained quiet.

A few employees who were on the side looking were all gossiping about Harvey softly at the moment.

Wendy frowned and said, “Are you working in our company? Who recruited you? Why don’t I know? But with your attitude, no matter who recruited you, I’m telling you that you are fired. I don’t need you to pay for my damages. Just get lost with your electric bike!”

    “Are you asking me to leave?”Harvey laughed. How could an employee ask the boss to leave?“Don’t you understand my words? I’m asking you to leave! No matter who recruited you, I don’t care whatever background you have, in short, get out right now!” Wendy gritted her teeth.She took out a stack of money from her bag after speaking and threw it on the ground. She said fiercely, “You’re not leaving, are you? Don’t you just want money? Take the money and get out!”At this moment, a deafening horn sounded, the employees quickly dispersed, because a Bentley directly stopped at the parking space of the president.Then, a lady in her early twenties, wearing a white shirt, delicate leather pants, and a ponytail, quickly walked down while holding a pouch.Her appearance was about the same level as Wendy, but her temperament was incomparable to Wendy.She did not even look at other people and quickly walked to Harvey. She bowed ninety degrees and said, “I’m so sorry, Mr. York. There was t

    Wendy was blushing as Harvey was staring straight at her. She was embarrassed. She was still very arrogant in front of Harvey last night and even despised him sitting next to her. However, she was the one standing here today, waiting for his order.Harvey stared at her for a while. Although this old classmate of his seemed a bit cold, her nature was not that bad.He said calmly as soon as he thought of this. “I will not fire you for this matter. As for your promotion, show me how capable you are, then we’ll talk about it.”He ignored her after saying this. He had just taken over the company and still had not figured out how the company operated. How could he waste time talking nonsense with Wendy?Although Wendy was beautiful, Harvey had seen more beautiful women, at least his wife—Mandy was even prettier than her.…The president of York Enterprise had changed. All current investments were terminated. However, they had added 5 billion dollars to invest in high-quality projects.

    “Huh?” Harvey was stunned for a moment and forgot to swallow the steak in his mouth. Why did he not know when this was going to happen?Xynthia was even more disgusted when she saw Harvey gobbling. She said coldly, “I’m not afraid to tell you. Brother Don has officially proposed marriage to the Zimmer family. He will send the dowries tonight. If you are smart enough, just don’t do anything. If you aren’t…”Xynthia sneered when she said this. Although the Zimmer family ran a legitimate business, they still had a few bodyguards in the family. If this loser wanted to cause trouble, they would surely knock him down.“Well, everyone, keep quiet. Senior has something to announce!”At the top position, Senior Zimmer reached out his hand and knocked on the table. He anticipated and said, “You should all have heard about the news, right? Not sure why, but the president of York Enterprise has suddenly changed. The new president has terminated all the investments that have been negotiated bef

    Everyone looked over there. They then saw Don wearing a delicate suit with his hair nicely combed to the back. He looked handsome and smart. He was holding a gift box in his hand and walked in with a smile. “Let us welcome Mr. Xander with warm applause!” A young man shouted.All kinds of cheering were heard all of a sudden.It was obvious that a young talented man like Don was more recognized and welcomed by the Zimmer family compared to Harvey.Most importantly, he could help the Zimmer family!At this moment, the entire Zimmer family was looking at Don as if he was the God of Wealth!Don smiled and waved to the people around him. He looked like a star walking on the red carpet and also looked like a high-flyer.“Senior Zimmer, I’m sorry to bother you. I come here uninvited. However, I am a straight-up guy. So, I’ll speak up if I have something to say!”Don was smiling ambitiously. He said loudly, “I fell in love with Mandy at first sight, but unfortunately, she was married t

    Mandy who initially felt strange on the inside felt the warmth in her heart at this moment. An unexplained feeling surged in her heart.She already had a feeling that the roses were sent by Don yesterday. Since Don had admitted to it now, she was indeed right about it.She never thought that Don would do what he said. He had just talked about the Prague roses yesterday morning. Then, the roses were sent to her in the afternoon and with the Heart of Prague in it some more.This thing could not be found easily. Thus, he must have planned this for her a long time ago, right?Although Mandy knew that she could not agree to this marriage because she was a married woman, she was still very moved and shy.“Hey, did you guys see it? Harvey’s expression is so funny! He’s shocked! Hahaha!”Meanwhile, Zack stood up, pointed in the direction where Harvey was, and laughed.Many people saw Harvey’s expression and heckled him after hearing Zack’s words.Indeed, Harvey’s face was very dark at

    The entire Zimmer Villa was in silence at that moment. Almost everyone turned to look at Harvey in disbelief. That live-in son-in-law said everything in certainty. Could it be that he indeed knew who the new CEO who invested in York Enterprise was? Don did not even believe him. He smiled coldly and said, “Fine! Tell us! Who’s the new CEO in my enterprise?” Harvey stretched his hand out and pointed it at himself. He then said slowly, “The new CEO of York Enterprise is me.” Everyone was so shocked that they said nothing for a moment.But the next second...“You?” Don was stunned at first. He then held his belly and broke into a burst of laughter. Finally, he stopped laughing with much difficulty. He then looked at Senior Zimmer. “Senior Zimmer, I thought that your live-in son-in-law just likes to put on a show. But it surprised me to see him acting like a fool.” The moment he said that, Zack and the others broke into laughter too. They looked at Harvey just like they were l

    They were stunned and soon broke into a burst of laughter.Don sneered and laughed too. “Harvey, is this your evidence? Don’t you think it’s hilarious?”“Mr. Xander, why are you wasting your time talking to a fool? I don’t even believe anything he said!” At that moment, Zack could not endure it anymore. He stepped forward and snatched away Harvey’s old phone, and smashed it onto the floor. He then pointed at Harvey and scolded him, “You’re just a live-in son-in-law! Why are you always putting on a show? You even claimed that you’d got evidence! F*ck you!” “Get lost this instant! We’re disgusted by your very existence!”“How could we have such a person like you in our family…” “A good-for-nothing!” Everybody from the Zimmers took the initiative at that moment just because they felt that they had been humiliated deeply by Harvey. They certainly knew that Harvey couldn’t be the new CEO in York Enterprise, but they felt like Harvey was underestimating them in that instant.“

    Hearing what Don said, Senior Zimmer’s heart skipped a beat. ‘That’s right. If I let Harvey be with us still, the entire Zimmers would certainly be ruined by him.’“Senior Zimmer, it’s your party here tonight. It might be unfortunate if you took the initiative to beat him up. Let me help you give this insensible good-for-nothing a lesson!” Seeing that Don was about to beat Harvey up, Senior Zimmer had no intention to stop him.Besides, the others from the Zimmers were enjoying the scene too. They had long been disgusted by Harvey and were eager to see Don beating him up. Don smiled wickedly. He ran up a few steps, and he was about to swing a flying kick at Harvey’s face. He had gone to the gym to train himself up for a few years now. He even learned Taekwondo for a few years from a so-called private coach and gained a black belt. At that moment, his kick appeared quite ferocious and strong. “I remembered that Mr. Xander is an expert in Taekwondo with a black belt. It’s over

    The opposing force got out of the helicopters after they landed, armed with weapons. Some were melee weapons, some were firearms, and they looked high and mighty all the way.Kenta had no choice but to step up. He raised his hand and yelled, "I'm from Fujihara…"But before he could even finish, someone from the other side had already pulled the trigger. A bullet streaked through Kenta's hair, and he finally broke a sweat when he realized what had just happened.Harvey knew very clearly that they were coming for him after seeing what happened. That was why he decided not to stay still anymore and stepped forward. He coldly said, "You're here for me, aren't you? Tell Isoroku to come talk to me."I have to say you are quite brave, Harvey. Calling me by name without any honorifics," A stern and cold voice came from a helicopter right before them. The door opened, and an islander slowly walked out. It was a man with white hair and beard.His figure was thin and even looked sickly, defi

    "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

  • Harvey York's Rise to Power   Chapter 7172

    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
