Harvey York had restrained himself from going all out. Aside from the security guard who tried to tackle Yvonne Xavier, he was quite merciful toward the others. This security guard’s body had become quite distorted, and his face kept flinching in pain. This thief’s movements were unexpectedly swift and skilled.Although the security guards lived pampered lives, they were quite capable and did not lack in skills. Yet, they did not expect that they would lose a fight this badly.Sheri watched the scene unfold with her eyes widened and her mouth hung open. At that very moment, there was no other reaction that she could give. If there was such a thing as a medicine to turn back time, she wouldn’t have snatched Harvey’s phone away for sure.Harvey had no intention to stop. He trampled on the security guard’s thigh, sending the man kneeling at that instant. He said quietly, “As a man, you should never hit a woman under any circumstances. This is a basic principle. You better apologize.
Boom!At that instant, a group of people appeared at the door. Tens of security guards surrounded the chief manager as he strode in with his beer belly. His eyes twitched when he saw the chaotic scene before him. He did not expect so much to have happened in the time he made that call. However, the president was soon to arrive. He had a stable pillar to lean on, and thus he was exceptionally calm. “Hey little br*t, at first we only needed to send you to the police station for stealing that bank card. At most, you’d only have to endure a few days in jail.” The chief manager said, all the while smiling in delight. “Now that this has happened, I’m afraid that matters won’t be so simple for you anymore.” Harvey York lifted his head and looked up with a smile. “Have you come, Mr. Chief Manager? I have a question for you. Aren’t you afraid that you wouldn’t achieve whatever you have in mind? With this much arrogance, I’m afraid that you might not be able to save yourself no matter how
This would imply that the owner of this phone was one of the most distinguished VIPs of the bank. The Amex Black Card and the number on the phone’s screen. Although the man before him looked like a very poor man, the chief manager grew frightened nonetheless.There were indeed coincidences in the world. An Amex Black Card could appear in a poor man’s hands. The private customer service could have called the wrong number. However, when two unlikely coincidences appear together, some truths become evident. He started to burst into cold sweat. The chief manager, who was initially arrogant beyond words, was now drenched in sweat. His white shirt was sticking to his body.He lifted his head with much difficulty to look at Harvey York. Harvey had casually flung the team leader of the security guards to one side. His face was completely unperturbed as he sat on a chair. Thud! The chief manager knelt immediately. “S-Sir, no, no, no. Mr. CEO, I was completely blind and looked down on
The chief manager quickly replied, “President, I didn’t do that on purpose. I was just trying to protect the assets of our clients. How would I know that a distinguished VIP would personally come to the front desk to handle matters on his own? I thought that someone had stolen his card!”Dawson Robbin held a darkened countenance. He walked over and kicked the chief manager on the chest, and then turned back to Harvey with a smile. “Mr. York, see? These subordinates of mine simply made a mess out of good intentions. Could you be magnanimous and not take this matter to heart?”“No big deal.” Harvey York shrugged. “There have always been proud bullies like these. However, I still would like to seek justice over what had happened. President, could you do me a favor?”“Just say the word and I will attend to it wholeheartedly, so long as it is within my power to do so.” Dawson’s face was earnest. It was good news that such a major client was willing to make a request. This meant that he h
After everyone had left, Dawson Robbins smiled apologetically and said, “CEO York, if necessary, I can fire all of them by noon.”Harvey York replied faintly, “This concerns the internal affairs of your company. What does it have to do with me?”“Yes, yes, yes…” Dawson changed the topic. “As for the matter at hand, I still hope you would be magnanimous enough to forget about moving your assets elsewhere.”Dawson’s face was dripping with cold sweat. York Enterprise did not have much money in its accounts, with only about hundreds of millions. However, Harvey was different. The amount he possessed in his account was astonishing. If he moved his private account away, Dawson would be in dire conditions.“President, it’s not that I don’t want to give you a chance. I just don’t like how these things keep happening to me.”“No, it will never happen again.” At that instant, Dawson rose. “Our bank will tailor-make a professional team to handle any business matters you wish. They will come
“Miss Zachary told me about your predicament. It’s no big deal, really. I just need to make a call, and all will be good.”It was hard to read Jake Surrey’s thoughts. He surveyed Mandy Zimmer from top to bottom and exclaimed, “Miss Zimmer, you really are the goddess of Niumhi. There’s only one as beautiful as you. I have never believed the rumors, but I stand corrected after seeing you. It’s unfortunate you’re already married. Otherwise, I would very much like to court you.”Jake’s behavior was rather overbearing. When he spoke, his eyes rested on Mandy’s body with an intrusive leer which made her quite uncomfortable. However, she needed him to get acquainted with the upper management of York Enterprise. She couldn’t say much. “Mr. Surrey, you’ve misunderstood. Mandy is married, and that’s a fact. However, that marriage is only on paper. The reality is quite the contrary. That loser live-in son-in-law husband of hers had never once held hands with her in the past three years. Aunt
Harvey York strode past Cecilia Zachary, his eyes not deigning her even the smallest hint of attention. “Harvey… Harvey York?”At this moment, Harvey York finally caught her eye. Her delicate body trembled slightly. She was quite surprised at seeing him, and couldn’t shake off her awkwardness. It was evident that she did not anticipate meeting Harvey York on this occasion. “You’re really exceptional, Harvey York.” Cecilia hurriedly spoke, shooting Harvey a hateful glare. “It’s fine if you didn’t return home for the past few days, but I must say, being able to enter places like these just by becoming someone’s kept man is rather impressive. Calling you the king of kept men is just an understatement at this point!” Harvey York replied quietly, “You’ve met Yvonne Xavier before, she’s my classmate. Mandy knows.”“Classmates?” Cecilia Zachary let out a cold snicker. “If you’re really just classmates, then why are you sitting in the front passenger seat? Tell me, how did you manage
“Wyatt Johnson?” Mandy Zimmer’s body went stiff with surprise. To meet him in this place was nothing short of unexpected. Cecilia smiled and said in a tone of jest, “What a coincidence, Wyatt. What brings you here?”Cecilia Zachary had some knowledge about the ins and outs of Wyatt Johnson. The Johnson household was nothing but a third-rate family. Logically speaking, he had no right to attend the Mountain Top Auction.She and Mandy were only able to attend because of Jake Surrey’s grace, so she grew curious as to how Wyatt Johnson was able to take part in the auction.Wyatt Johnson replied cheerfully, “I got lucky recently and made some pocket change. I just happened to get an invitation, so here I am.”Saying that, Wyatt instantly felt ill. The past few nights serving that old woman had taken a huge toll on him. He had to take heavy medication because of it. Even then, he was slowly losing consciousness. On the other hand, she treated him exceedingly well. Not only did she give
