Harvey York casually said, “I don’t like working, I like my wife taking care of me.”Harvey seemed calm while Sean Zimmer and the others on the other side of the phone were boiling with anger.They had never seen a person that was so straightforward about being kept. Truly, a legendary kept man.“Fine, then tell me. What do you want?”Sean was still holding in his anger.He was afraid that his tone would come out as rude and make Harvey hang up the call again.“The conditions are simple. Whoever fired her has to fetch her on their own!” Harvey said casually.“Right, I fired her. I’ll come myself!” Sean swiftly said.Harvey chuckled loudly.“Uncle, do you really think that I’m an idiot?“If you had authority in the Zimmer family, would you even need to call me right now?“Let Senior Zimmer come by himself. If not, then we’re not coming back.”Do… Do… Do…Harvey’s attitude had become more unyielding.Sean looked at the time, it was already eight o’clock in the morning. He w
Mandy Zimmer had already gotten used to the Zimmer family having such double standards.But Senior Zimmer had rarely done something on his own volition during the time in Niumhi before, he would always maintain his absurdly high status and authority.Why did he decide to come on his own this time?It was unbelievable.“It’s for his benefit, how could he not come?”Harvey York smiled.Mandy looked at Harvey confused, then thought about the situation for a while.“Harvey, be honest. What did you actually do?”“Nothing I guess,” Harvey said.“Didn’t Miss Xavier recognize you that day at Prince York’s banquet?“She even invited you to attend Sky Corporation’s inauguration ceremony.”“If you don’t represent the Zimmer family, who else could have the right to?“Since Prince York was the one that established Sky Corporation, it would naturally be hard to talk to them.“That’s why I’m guessing that Senior Zimmer and the others met a sharp rebuff during a visit to Sky Corporation a
Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer had arrived at the Sky Corporation building right before ten o’clock.They were escorted courteously by the front desk lady to the office where Zack Zimmer and the others had been to the previous day.The person in charge of the office stood up immediately after seeing Mandy.He politely walked toward Mandy while smiling.“You must be Mrs. Zimmer. Please, come sit. What an honor it is for you to visit us!”“Would you like coffee or tea?Mandy was slightly shocked.The person in front of him wore a suit and leather boots, his hair combed straight.His wrist wearing a big golden Rolex, he seemed like an executive no matter how Mandy looked at him.Senior Zimmer had described the man as ruthless during Mandy’s car ride and constantly told her to be on her guard at all times.But she was at a loss on what to do about the man’s energy, she was not sure what to say at that moment.Harvey indulgently sat down behind her and said, “Get me some water, my
Mandy Zimmer had turned absentminded, she came back to her senses after a while.“Supervisor, does that mean the Zimmer family won’t have to go through the bankruptcy procedure?”“No need, no need. The corporation will even consider increasing our investments for you!”“But, there’s still a framework agreement here that needs your signature. We humbly ask you to come over again after three days!”The deputy director was extremely polite, the other executives were putting on smiles on their faces.After feeling everyone’s enthusiasm, Mandy smiled.“Thank you everyone for taking care of me.”Harvey York stood up and said, “Good work.”The deputy director’s body trembled as if he drank espresso, his expressions showing utmost content.“No! No! I’m just doing my job!”The deputy director was on the verge of kneeling with tears brimming in his eyes. What an honor it was for this man to praise them!***Mandy still could not come to her senses even after leaving Sky Corporation,
Senior Zimmer stared icily at Zack, frowning. “Do you think I’m not aware of everything you just said?”“I’ve been thinking about them all this time!”“You do realize that if it wasn’t for Mandy, we wouldn’t be able to reach this solution?”“What if they rescind the contract when we send another person to go over and sign it?”“Zack, I understand your concern.”“But this time, we need to be vigilant!”“This is a matter of life and death for the Zimmer family!”Zack’s mouth hung agape, but no words came out.Grandfather was right. This was a major issue, so he couldn’t act as wilfully as he liked.Still… did he really have to hand over all of his power to Mandy? Without getting to do anything else? If that was truly the case, what would his standing in the Zimmer family be from then onwards?Must he be under Mandy’s control even in Buckwood?Zack hung his head low, a twisted expression coloring his face.Senior Zimmer shot Zack one last glance before letting out a sigh, an
Emperor Clubhouse, Buckwood.Only the esteemed and the affluent could frequent this exclusive clubhouse.It was a particularly popular haunt for young rich heirs.Renting a private room for just one night could cost tens of thousands of dollars.This was where the rich spend their money like water without the slightest care in the world, a place the poor could only look at from afar. In one of the private rooms, Brent Silva sat at the end of a long table. He was smiling as he played with his phone.“Everyone, I’m your host for the night. None of you are ordering any drinks or calling any women over. Are you all looking down on me?”Sitting on his opposite were at least ten to twenty rich heirs. They were usually nonchalant and egotistical, but at this moment all of them bore similar strained expressions.In the past, they would’ve happily played around with women.In contrast, today they ordered only clear soups and plain water, and didn’t dare to touch the French red wine se
“What rule did Prince York break?”Someone asked with a hesitated tone.No one dared to speak up freely as this matter was related to Prince York.This was the man who established a corporation worth millions and billions of dollars, and had stood above South Light’s ceiling since three years ago. In their eyes, he was just like a god.Even though he was the reason they were going bankrupt… Yet, who dared to show even the slightest bit of resentment towards him?They understood their place. None of them had the right to do so!Watching them, all Brent Silva could feel was disdain.These people had been high and mighty all this while, eating and living off their families’ wealth without a care in the world. Yet, look how timid they became the moment they stumbled over an obstacle! Of course, he couldn’t possibly show his disdain. Instead, he continued, “Not long ago, a family by the name Zimmer just moved into Buckwood. Have you heard of them?”Some replied indifferently, “T
Brent Silva looked at Zack Zimmer and replied, “How can I be as smart as you? You’ve only been in Buckwood for a few days, but you already know how to build and use your connections well.”Zack bowed lightly and said, “I can’t comment on that, but even someone like me knows how deep the waters of Buckwood go. In order to survive, a strong backing is necessary.”“Using this opportunity to get connected with a family as esteemed as the Silvas is my pleasure.”“From now onwards I would gladly do anything Mr. Silva orders me, no matter what!”Brent curled his lips. “You’re someone who can sell off your own family without batting an eye. How can I trust you? Those are your close relatives!”“Mr. Silva, we businessmen will always chase after profit.” Zack flashed Brent a devilish grin. “It’s our true nature!”“Anyway, someone who doesn’t belong to the Zimmer family has nothing to do with me.”“Plus, after the plan succeeded, you’ll be able to get what you want, won’t you? What kind o
