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
“It’s simple.”“We might not have any invitations, but we came in through the security check.”“Since we got in, that means that there are no suspicions about our identity.”“Clearly, Brent Silva was the one causing all the commotion and disrupting the banquet.”“You all saw the crowd that gathered her just now, right? How terrible must that have been?”“I don’t know who this Prince York is, but I think he won’t like people disrupting his banquet.”“Not just Brent Silva. I assume even Leon Silva would get thrown out like that if he caused trouble here.” Harvey York said naturally.Simon Zimmer nodded in agreement.“That must be it. I did hear before that the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard has a lot of rules.”“In this place, nobody would care about your identity if you could get in legally.”“But if you cause a ruckus in here, you’d be thrown out immediately regardless of your status!”“I see, no wonder the invitations are so expensive!” Lilian Yates said with a thoughtful ex
Simon Zimmer’s expression changed. He added quietly, “Maybe I should get someone to bring gifts here. There should still be enough time.”Lilian Yates immediately frowned.“If we just start preparing right now, won’t Prince York think we don’t care much for him?”Simon Zimmer's face darkened even more. That seemed like a high possibility.They were being passive, it was truly hard for them to think of a plan.Mandy Zimmer stood up.“Father, mother. Stay here for now, I’ll go prepare us a generous gift. Nothing too cheap. We should be alright.”Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates nodded in response. At this point, the only thing they could do was to bring out the big bucks for a gift. Harvey York pulled Mandy’s hand and said, “Darling, I don’t think there’s a need for that. Prince York has seen and experienced every luxury in the world. He won’t care about gifts.”“Even if he doesn’t, it wouldn’t matter.” Mandy Zimmer said. “We should still do our part and show our etiquette.” Har
At the Silver Nimbus Courtyard.In the VIP room on the second floor.A silhouette stood with hands behind her back, gazing at the man below who was blended in with the crowd. Her beautiful eyes showed delight.Not far from her, a man who was playing chess got up and stood beside her.He too looked at the indifferent man standing among the crowd, complicated waves surging in his eyes.After a while, he started to speak.“Queenie, that’s your big brother. Aren’t you going to greet him?”“You poured your heart and soul out for this banquet, after all.”When he was finished with his words, he gazed at her quietly.He hailed from the impressive York lineage and the first of the four masters of the family, Quinton York.The woman before him was Queenie York.Quinton York’s expressions did not change much, but Quinton’s words had a deeper meaning. The way he spoke was as if he was teasing and testing her at the same time.She acted like she didn’t hear anything he said and continu
Yvonne Xavier’s eyes lit up and she smiled. She shot a discreet glance at a particular direction without attracting any attention.That man shook his head slightly, and her smile widened.“Everyone, I have something to announce.”“My CEO said he is no longer the heir of the York family.”“Calling him Prince York would be improper.”“From today onward, everyone can address him as Mr. York.”At this, the guests fell in an uproar.“Prince York was no longer Prince York.” What did that mean?Maybe the truth was truly just like what the rumors spoke of?Prince York had left Buckwood because he lost the battle for authority in the York family?If he did fail, then why did he come back?Plus, the York family went out of their way to organize a banquet just for him at the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard.Manager York was not present, not to mention the four masters of the Yorks.What was all this supposed to mean?While everyone present made their own private guesses, Yvonne Xavier
When would Prince York arrive?This was the question everyone was concerned about.Yvonne Xavier flashed them all a pleasant smile.“Actually, the CEO had already arrived a while ago. But he is usually very discreet and doesn’t attend events like this. For him to come today is also a surprise to me.”Yvonne Xavier’s statement caused uproar in the guests.Immediately, they started scouring the hall for Prince York.Yvonne Xavier coldly added, “Everyone, what you’re doing right now is disrespectful toward my CEO.”“He ordered me to tend to everyone. So if there’s any problems, naturally I’ll be the one to handle it. If you need anything, please do let me know as well.”Simon Zimmer’s face changed after hearing her words.“We’re finished! She’s hinting at everyone to bring out their gifts. We don’t have anything, we’re done for!”Lilian Yates’ face had also darkened.Everyone understood what Yvonne Xavier meant as well. Of course it’s that they should bring out their gifts!“T
