Brent Silva shook his head while sighing, then turned around and left.“Sigh…”Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates also sighed.If the filth, Harvey York, did not go to Buckwood, the divorce between him and Mandy Zimmer would be set in stone.And Mandy could be married to Brent.The whole family would be filthy rich.But now…It was useless to say anything then!Brent walked in front of them, saying sigh-inducing speech like this had made them want to puke blood.***After the end of the banquet.“Everyone, let’s go to our new villa.“Us Zimmers should thoroughly chat, talk about the development in Buckwood and tomorrow’s banquet!“All of you have to listen, as it is beneficial to you all!“And Mr. Brent, I humbly invite you to come along as well.”Senior Zimmer started to arrange the meeting.Simon and Lilian looked at Senior Zimmer excitedly.Especially Simon, to be able to be in the Zimmer family’s inner circle has been his ambition for the longest time.He had hoped to
Mandy Zimmer had been reading up on some material for the whole night without uttering a word until the next morning.Even until the next night, Mandy did not complain, nor did she droop her face the whole time.The time of the banquet drew closer.Mandy could not sit still anymore and then stood up.“Harvey York, I trust you to the point I hinge all my bets on you.”“But how are you supposed to let me trust you?“Do you even have an invitation card?“I thought you had ideas to get at least a few.“You’ve been sleeping since last night!“You didn’t even walk out the front door, nor did you make a single phone call!“Let me ask you this, where are you even planning to get the invitation cards? Are they going to just fall out of the sky?”At that moment, Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates were already knocking on the door impatiently.“Harvey, what is going on?”“What did you even prepare?“Mandy had already talked big yesterday. If you can’t fulfill your promise, we won’t have
Senior Zimmer sighed.“I thought you’d at least have grown a little after a dozen years or so in Buckwood!“I did not think that you are as foolish as you were. I’m truly embarrassed to have a son like you!“I’d never think that you and your son-in-law are the same worthless sacks of trash!“The whole family, worthless sacks of trash!”“Pfft hahaha…”All the people from the Zimmer family present were laughing their heads off.Gazes of ridicule were directed toward Simon Zimmer.Simon wanted to find a hole on the road to stick his head in at that moment. He truly hated Harvey York.At that moment, he had thrown away his remaining dignity in front of the whole Zimmer family.Mandy Zimmer was looking at Harvey, disappointed.Simon and his family would not be able to show their faces anywhere anymore.As for Mandy and Harvey, they would have to break all ties between each other as well.“You dare to attend the evening banquet without invitation cards?“You’re joking.“Let me
But when Zack Zimmer thought about Harvey York standing not far from him, he could not falter. He was grinding on his teeth and quietly said, “Why don’t you try and touch me? Do you even know who I am?“The Zimmer family were the ones that invited Prince York to the banquet. He promised to come!“Would you dare cross the Zimmers like this? You’re just a bodyguard…”Slap!The person that looked like the captain hit Zack backhanded across his face and immediately made him unconscious.“If you don’t leave right now, don’t blame me for what happens next,” the captain said coldly.The Zimmers were trembling in their boots. They pulled Zack away, prepared to make a run for it.Not far away, Simon Zimmer saw that and felt strangely invigorated.“Harvey, you were right. They couldn’t get in.”Harvey smiled and held onto Mandy Zimmer’s hand.“Dad, mom. We should get in.”“Don’t! Are you not afraid of dying? Even the invitation cards from the Silvas aren’t enough to let the others in.
Simon Zimmer, Lilian Yates, Mandy Zimmer, and Xynthia Zimmer…They were all transfixed, unsure of how to feel about this.Not only did the personal bodyguards not check for their invitations, they even respectfully let them in into the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard?And the people waiting to make fun of them, including Zack Zimmer, were frozen.“How… Did they get in? How… Could this be possible?”Senior Zimmer was sluggish. He could not believe what he saw.Simon and Lilian looked back with faces full of content.They were rejoicing. Whatever it was that happened, they had already gotten in.Simon had stayed in Buckwood for many years. He knew how hard it was to even come here. He felt like he was dreaming at that moment.“It was that easy? My good son-in-law, how did you do it?”He even changed his pronouns at that moment.Before, Harvey York was only filth, a worthless sack of trash, junk of a person.But he called him his good son-in-law.They thought that the son-in-la
Simon Zimmer and the rest of the Zimmers’ faces turned as dark as night.They believed Brent Silva was able to do as he said.It would be a simple matter for him, what with the Silva family supporting him.One word from him, and the Zimmer family could get thrown out immediately.Mandy Zimmer shot Brent Silva a frown.“Mr. Silva, there have been no problems between us until this point. What do you want?”Brent Silva laughed and approached Mandy Zimmer, and then whispered into her ear with a low tone that only both of them could hear.“It should be an honor for you to have someone like me to come to you. Yet you chose not to divorce this filth?”“Mr. Silva, you’re shaming me!”“As long as you and your sister promise to spend the night with me, I won’t give you too much trouble. How’s that sound?”“I’ll even give you two a project to work on. Deal?”“You… You’re shameless!”How could Mandy Zimmer even accept an offer like that?With her pride, she would not give in, even if
“Get your invitations out already!” Brent Silva shouted, his tone aggressive.“We don’t need it.” Harvey York replied calmly.“Hahaha! Captain, did you hear that? They don’t even have one! He even said that they don’t need one!”Brent Silva laughed his heart out.“This live-in son-in-law does seem suspicious. Maybe he came in by climbing over the wall!”The captain however was still skeptical, and something seemed off to him.Yet because of his duty, he immediately let out an order to his subordinates.“Take these people to the security room. Find out what their deal is, then decide what to do with them!”Simon Zimmer and his family were frightened and horrified.If they were interrogated, they’d definitely be forced out of the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard!The rest of the Zimmer family might still be waiting outside.How embarrassing would that be for him and his family if they got kicked out just like that?Were that to happen, they wouldn’t know what to do.“Wait! Sist
The bodyguard captain was also looking at Harvey York with disdain. However, he understood that if he wanted to climb the ranks in the York family, he shouldn’t be too rash.He sized Harvey York up and calmly replied, “Alright! Let’s see if Manager York really does know you, live-in son-in-law!”Brent Silva was ecstatic.‘Looks like the next part of this play is going to get even more exciting!’A crowd now gathered around all of them. Simon Zimmer and his family all hung their heads down in shame.Embarrassing!Truly embarrassing!The captain swiftly sent Manager York a text.The next moment, his phone immediately rang.After hearing what the person said on the other side of the phone, the captain’s face immediately changed.His gaze fell on Harvey York, this time filled with fear.Even his knees began to grow weak.He couldn’t believe he was trying to cause trouble to the legendary…“I understand… Manager York… I understand…”The captain was trembling as he spoke.Br
"While Country H is said to have existed for so many years, the people can be quite narrow-minded. They'll act all arrogant because they have a bit of talent. Not only that, but they also refuse to accept the rest of the civilized world. There's no need to get angry with these people," Juliana said to Hawk's men, her tone filled with concern."All of them say they love their country, but the truth is that they'll leave for greener pastures as soon as opportunities present themselves. Despite agreeing with your values, I'm still part of this country. I wish I could really be part of you!" Juliana said, envy and disappointment on her face.Hawk and the others smiled when they saw Juliana's attitude. If most of the people from Country H acted like this, their cultural victory would be assured. At this point, all of them smiled widely and abandoned whatever upset feelings they had from just now.-About ten minutes later, Harvey took Alexei back to the Dragon Gate Training Hall. Va
When Juliana and the others saw Harvey and Alexei leave, all of them could only grit their teeth in anger despite being genuinely surprised. They didn't expect Harvey's call to be enough to remove Hawk's status as a Knight Templar with one call. His quick action had humiliated Hawk and his men.Normally speaking, they would never believe that Harvey would be able to do such a thing. They didn't expect that reality could be so cruel to the point that it was choking them. Harvey was so influential that they found themselves struggling to breathe."Calm down, Hawk. Don't feel down. I don't think that what happened is real," Juliana said as she subconsciously consoled Hawk. "His reputation is built on boasts. He doesn't understand just how powerful your culture is! There's no way he can affect the powerful Knights Templar."I suspect he's working with someone else and got a fake number, so that he could intimidate and trick you! In other words, you can't let this confuse you! Even i
Harvey narrowed his eyes and said calmly to Hawk, "If you're really that powerful, you won't be wearing that expression when you see me."The so-called top from their side would not only treat him with respect, but they would also get the hell out of there as fast as possible.However, Hawk didn't understand what Harvey was trying to convey. He smiled coldly and said, "You don't understand what the Knight Templars mean, do you? Before this name, even dragons and beasts must fall! And when it comes to someone like you… The moment I showed you my identity, you won't even have the privilege to bend your knee!"Harvey refuted calmly, "If you're really that influential, won't it humiliate you completely if I can make you bend your knee with one call?"Hawk's expression turned brutal. "Oh? You're going to make a move? Come on, then! Show me just how good you really are!"Harvey nodded and pulled out his phone as he looked at Hawk. "Since you asked for it, I guess I have no choice but
Harvey scoffed. He couldn't be bothered by wasting his breath speaking to someone like Juliana, who obviously had been hit on the head. Instead, he turned to Alexei. "I'm leaving now. You either leave with me, or you can stay here and be a simp. But remember—if you stay as her simp, don't appear in front of me again. A man who has no pride and a backbone doesn't have the right to stand in front of me."Hearing that, there was a hint of hesitation on Alexei's face.When Juliana saw that Harvey didn't agree to her demand and even changed the subject, she smiled coldly. "If you have a death wish, then I'll grant it to you. I won't pull my punches from here on out. And you, Alexei. You can try and leave with him… As long as you can bear the consequences of that!"Alexei's expression was filled with even more hesitation. In the end, he gritted his teeth and left together with Harvey.Juliana's smile turned icy when she saw what had happened. "Good, Alexei! You'll regret this! From n
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault! My entire fault! I shouldn't have forced you!" Alexei said, lowering his head dejectedly. Seeing this, Juliana walked over and extended her hand, raising Alexei's chin. She said coldly, "It's good that you know you're making a mistake. Now, Hawk and I will need to get some rest at the hotel. We'll also be going to a charity ball later. Since we're very busy, we don't have the time to pay for our meal. Remember to pay for it and our presidential suite as well. Understand?"While Juliana looked down at Alexei, she didn't mind making Alexei pay for everything. From her perspective, it was a matter of course.When Alexei heard it, he still nodded despite the dark expression on his face.He wanted to take his wallet out, but Harvey quickly stopped Alexei and took his wallet instead. "If you have the money for a woman, why don't you come with me and eat something at the nearby stall? Don't waste your life and time on a woman like this."Harvey dragged A
After Alexei heard what Harvey had to say, his expression was filled with hesitation. It was obvious that he did have feelings for Juliana. However, there was also fear. He didn't know what he should do.He was afraid that Juliana might really abandon him. At the same time, he was really afraid that Juliana was cheating. Alexei felt like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place."Alexei? Why are you here?" At this time, a cold and arrogant voice could be heard. "Are you here to ambush me? So that you can annoy me?"Harvey instinctively turned around and saw Juliana and Hawk walking out from the restaurant hand-in-hand like a wealthy couple. Behind them were their secretaries, lawyers, and bodyguards. They looked like important people; on the other hand, Alexei looked like a beggar by the street.Alexei quickly ran over, forcing himself to smile despite being upset. "I heard you're back, Juliana, so I came over to pick you up. You must be tired now. I've arranged for a pre
"That's her, Big bro! According to my spy, he said Juliana is no longer hiding it and cheats openly! I didn't want to believe it, but from the looks of it, she's been cheating all this time!" Alexei said to Harvey. He was so upset that he almost cried.Harvey frowned. "That's all you know? What else do you have?"Alexei quickly took out his phone. "My spy has just sent me all the information. Juliana went to Lost City for further studies, and she studied well. Originally, according to the promise made, she should already be back about half a month ago so we could get married. However, she got to know this man called Hawk John at her graduation party. The two became fast friends. She even announced that they're best friends forever!"I thought they were just ordinary friends, but from the looks of it… That isn't it at all! Forget hiding it, Juliana's directly taking him back! I hate this!" Alexei slammed his chest, as if he were in a lot of pain.Harvey was speechless. "Seriou
Harvey's eyes started to twitch as he immediately gave Alexei a look. It was a call for help.Alexei shrugged. There was nothing he could do. However, it was exactly at this time that his phone suddenly started to vibrate. He gave it a weird look and picked it up. Then, he was stunned… He was practically frozen. No longer caring about anything, Alexei immediately ran over to Harvey and hugged his legs tightly. "Bro! Big bro! You have to help me! You must!"Alexei instantly started crying.Harvey promptly bent down and held Alexei's shoulder. As if he had found a way out, he said solemnly, "Don't worry, Alexei. I've always treated you like my own little brother. Your problem is also my problem. Even if the world is collapsing, I will protect you. So, stop worrying!"Alexei was so touched that he couldn't stop himself from weeping. "You're treating me so well, Big bro, even after I sold you out to my Senior…"Harvey's eyes twitched again. "We're family! What can I say? Let's
Harvey's eyes instinctively twitched. "It belongs to me, so why can't I stay here?"Vaida said worriedly, "Now that Grand City is so chaotic and the Sacred Lands are on the verge of getting into a fight, it's really dangerous if you stay outside. Both my father and I are worried about you. So… Shouldn't you move back?"Harvey led Vaida into the living room and said with a smile, "Don't overthink things, Vaida. It's exactly because things are getting unruly that I should stay in Dragon Gate Training Hall to be a stabilizing presence as their scion, right? Not to mention, I've bothered all of you too much all this time. I have too much going on. If I stay there, it will only bother the mayor, Mr. Wenzel, and Mr. Geoffrey. So, it's better if I stay at my own place."However, Harvey paused when he reached this part of the conversation. "Of course, if there's a need, all you need to do is to give me a call and I'll be there."Vaida nodded. "Harvey, other than the reason you've given us
