Chapter 14
Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
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 to a loser!”

“I have regarded this marriage as a joke for three years. But how much pain has Mandy suffered? I love Mandy. I don’t want to see her endure such pain. Hence, I am here today just to say this out in front of the entire Zimmer family…”

Don took a deep breath. “I want to marry Mandy. I want to make her happy!”

He shook the entire room. ‘Don Xander is too straightforward. He did not give any face to Harvey! Harvey is also here now.’

‘However, think about it carefully, Harvey, the live-in son-in-law is just a loser. Why should Don save face for him? He’s not afraid to offend him.’

Harvey would be so pissed off now. He had such bad luck!

“I have been thinking about Mandy over the past few years!” Don continued. “I can sacrifice everything for her. I have brought over the gains of my hard work over the years today…”

Don slowly opened the gift box while talking. There was a check lying in it and the number written on it was shocking.

“This is a cash check of ten million dollars. As long as Mandy is willing to marry me, then this will be my betrothal gift!” Don said loudly, “Even my property which is worth tens of millions of dollars can be put under Mandy’s name.”

“What?!”

Everyone gasped and their faces turned pale.

The people of the Zimmer family took the check and handed it to Senior Zimmer. Everyone’s eyes lit up at this moment.

Ten million dollars was certainly not a big deal for the Zimmer family. Although the Zimmer family was a second-class family in Niumhi, its assets were more than a billion dollars.

However, Don was able to take out a total of ten million in cash! For any major family, most of the family’s capital was fixed assets. They often lack liquidity or either the liquidity was low.

Taking the Zimmer family as an example, it was good to have tens of millions of cash in the book.

If the Zimmer family could get the cash from Don, they could take the business to the next level.

Meanwhile, everyone’s gaze fell on Mandy. Some women hoped that they were the ones being proposed now.

“It’s so romantic! Ten million dowry!”

“Money is one thing. But the most important thing is to have the heart…”

“Yes, this kind of love is so enviable. Why could no one treat me like this?!”

Many people were talking about it. Guys were jealous; girls envious.

Especially for some women, they were crazy about Don.

Lilian and Xynthia were looking at Don with satisfaction. After all, he was a talented and handsome man. He was a thousand times better than Harvey.

Don continued. “Mandy, did you receive the Prague roses with the Heart of Prague in it yesterday afternoon? That is a gift from me!”

Don was full of pride when it came to this.

His spy in Mandy’s company informed him about it yesterday afternoon.

He just pretended to be the sender after he had confirmed that the person who gave the gift did not disclose his identity. Everyone would believe what he said anyway.

“What? The Heart of Prague?!”

“The legendary Heart of Prague?! Is it the one that Mandy is wearing now? It is said that there’s only one in the world. It is very valuable, but not for sale. It can’t be bought with money! Mr. Xander, you are so incredible…”

“This, this, this…”

Many women were in awe when their gaze fell on Mandy.

The Heart of Prague, the legendary jewel! It was jointly designed by many well-known art masters. It was known as the treasure of Prague. They never thought it would appear here today.

Harvey suddenly stood up. This time, he got angry.

Don was too shameless! He was the one who gifted the Heart of Prague to his wife. How dare he falsely claim that it was his gift?

What was even more annoying was that everyone believed him!

    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.

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?

    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

    ‘What?’Everyone was dumbfounded. ‘What’s happening?’ ‘That useless person just lifted his right hand slightly. Why did Don endure such a terrible fall?’‘Does that b*stard have such a skill?’ ‘Or is it true that every dog has its day?’ But most of them felt that Harvey was having some dumb luck, and Don was indeed unfortunate. Harvey just lifted his hand like that, and Don was thrown off terribly.“Harvey… just you wait and see…” Don was lying on the ground, shivering. He tried his best to get up. In that instant, he pointed at Harvey and scolded him vigorously, “I’ll ruin you! I’ll make you pay for it. Just you wait and see…” At that moment, everyone was fixing their eyes at Don, whose nose was bleeding. Then they turned to throw pitiful glances at Harvey. What kind of resources did that live-in son-in-law have? But Don was different. He was a middle-ranking employee in York Enterprise. If he had such an intention, it would certainly be relatively easy for him to ruin

    At the mention of Tyson Woods, everybody in the Zimmers drew in a cold breath. Who was Tyson? He was a famous person in Niumhi. A lot of people wanted to curry favor with him, but they were unable to do so. That future son-in-law—Don, was able to ask him to come over. Don was indeed quite an influential and powerful man.Even Senior Zimmer looked at Don approvingly. He was somewhat satisfied with that grandson-in-law. “You don’t want me to survive until tomorrow. Very well.” Harvey smiled. “I’m indeed curious. You’re about to lose everything, and you’re a useless person who will face bankruptcy soon. I wonder how you’re going to do that…” Someone burst into laughter. “Is he out of his mind? Mr. Xander is a rich youth. His one-million-cheque is still here. How could he say that Mr. Xander is going to lose everything and face bankruptcy? Does he even know what bankruptcy is?” “Oh! This live-in son-in-law always stays at home and is either watching TV or reading novels. He does

    Don quickly came back to his senses. He then smiled and tried to make it up. “It's nothing. The vice president asked me to have a drink together. I’ve got no time today. Hence, I rescheduled to meet up with him tomorrow.”Everyone in the Zimmer family was shocked when they heard about it. The vice president of York Enterprise, asking Don to have a drink together?Moreover, Don rejected him and even rescheduled it for tomorrow. He did have some status and face!Everyone in the Zimmer family could not help but step forward and gather around Don to please him.At this time, a squeal of brakes could be heard from the gate of the villa.

    While Clarion and Harvey were talking, the Origin Sword Style elites were already slowly coming closer.600 feet. 300 feet. 150 feet!As they drew closer, everyone could see their murderous expression. Their firearms already had their safety off. One could also see there were no longer any gaps in their encirclement.With how things were going, the only two options for Harvey and his men were to either get killed or to simply surrender.As they drew closer, not only was Clarion sweating, but all his bodyguards also had cold sweat on their foreheads.Only Harvey wasn't doing anything. He simply narrowed his eyes as if he was quietly calculating something. When there were only 60 feet left, he suddenly said, "You have two seconds."Harvey suddenly slammed his foot on the ground.Boom!A powerful shockwave extended outward, and all the Origin Sword Style elites surrounding them were subconsciously stunned. The shield they were holding momentarily left the ground."Warsong! Fire

    At Clarion's order, all his bodyguards immediately dragged out several black suitcases. Within were black holes with blue bullets. It was obvious these bullets were created to be used on Martial Arts elites. The damage they could deal was beyond anyone's imagination.The bodyguards stood in front of Harvey and Clarion with the suitcases, ready to fight their enemies to the bitter end.When the Origin Sword Style elites saw how Harvey and the others reacted, they took out a shield and placed it in front of them. It was obvious they were prepared.Or perhaps, it was easier to say that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew what they had prepared.Clarion's expression darkened. "How did these fools manage to guess we're here with the Warsongs?"Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Is there a possibility that they didn't make a guess, but instead already received news about how many people we brought and what kind of weapons, so they could make preparations for us?"Clarion was stunned. "W

    Boom! Boom! Boom!There was a string of explosions in mid-air. The bolts had also been engulfed by the explosion. Even after Harvey had managed to negate the attacks, he didn't stop. He grabbed the rocks from the ground with his hand.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Several elites hidden in the shadows instantly lost their fighting skills."He really is a True Warrior," Clarion muttered when he saw what happened. He wasn't even sure what to say.He thought he should be able to put himself to some use this time, hence why he asked to come with Harvey. He didn't expect Harvey to be so powerful that he needed others at all.Very quickly, all the attackers gathered. It was obvious they knew they couldn't do anything to Harvey anymore."These people are from the Origin Sword Style!" Clarion said seriously after he looked at what the attackers were wearing. "They're quite troublesome. While they look like they're over-the-top, they're most likely sacrificial soldiers. But the problem is t

    "Of course, if we can maintain absolute discretion, we can escape without alerting anyone once we find Ms. Mandy," Clarion said, remaining positive. "That way, we don't have to fight and draw the attention of those who hold power in Sky Plane."Harvey was sitting in the van. He frowned and looked at the buildings with clear Island Nation influence. "Since Daichi is blackmailing me using Mandy, that means they're confident we won't be able to take her away. I believe we'll have to fight with those from the Origin Sword Style today."Harvey gave it a thought for a while and said, "And don't you think that the information Vaida gave us is too accurate? As if someone left behind an opening for us."Clarion's eyes widened. "Don't tell me this is a trap just for us?"Harvey shook his head. "Not only for us, but also for Grand City. If we're really stuck here… It doesn't matter if we're killed or captured alive, we'll become the excuse for them to attack Grand City. This time, we must…"

    Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil

    Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai

    Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas

    "Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple.

    Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
