Naturally, the waiters thought that both of them wanted to dine here.Harvey York shook his head.“I don’t have a reservation, I’m not here to dine either.“I’d like to reserve the entire restaurant for the day after tomorrow.”Xynthia Zimmer’s body trembled, she looked at Harvey like she was in love.‘My brother-in-law is so handsome. No, he is so grand!‘He could book a place like this without even asking for the price!’“Sir, you may not know about our restaurant policies. You need to have an online reservation a month prior to be able to have a spot in the restaurant, and we do not provide charter services,” the waiter explained patiently.Harvey frowned and said, “Do you not understand me? I need the entire place for the day after tomorrow.”At that moment, Harvey was wearing cheap store-bought goods. He did not look like a wealthy person at all.The waiters sized him up and their expressions changed.“Sir, this isn’t a place for you to cause a ruckus! Do you know how m
Harry Zapata and his family, was a third-class family in Buckwood.The Zapata family relied on establishing restaurants to survive. When their business froze over a few years ago, they had gotten new investments from Harvey York.Then the Zapata family was secretly siding with Harvey after that and dealt with quite a few other competitors in the same industry.Now, they had almost no competitors when they stood at the top of the food industry in Buckwood.After Prince York had recently made a strong return, and the Zapata family had offered more than half of the shares. They also had rebranded their business under Sky Corporation’s name.But they were only holding the shares in Sky Corporation, it did not affect the business of the Zapata family.The assets of the Zapata family were only mediocre after all, Sky Corporation could not be bothered about it at that moment.But with the support of the powerhouse like Sky Corporation, the Zapata family were as powerful as them. Thus,
Noticing the change in Harvey’s expression, Xynthia, who knew how scary he could be when angered, quickly mediated the situation and hurriedly said, “It’s okay. It was just a few words, so let’s ignore them.”“Don’t forget, we’re here to make a reservation.”Xynthia shifted her gaze to Harry Zapata. “Senior, we wish to reserve the whole place the day after tomorrow. Do you think it’s possible?”Although she herself was full of anger, she held it in because of her brother-in-law.Harry sized Xynthia up and snickered. “No. Our rule is guests must make reservations at least a month earlier. Plus, we don’t allow anyone to book the entire place.”Harvey cut in, “You’ll allow if I say so. I’ll give you a hundred and fifty million dollars to let us book the whole place.”Harry cackled loudly. “Seems you’re pretty loaded, huh?”He spat on the ground and added, “But I don’t need that filthy money of yours!”“Keep your eyes open wide! From now onwards our restaurant will have an extra ru
Under their ridicule, Xynthia Zimmer went red with shame.She couldn’t help tugging at her brother-in-law’s shirt and whispered, “Brother-in-law, let’s just go and book somewhere else!”“I want it to be here. I like this place.” Harvey replied. “Since the Zapatas don’t want to serve me, then we’ll simply change hosts.” “Ha ha ha! Okay, we’ll wait and see. There’s three minutes left.”Harry made a show of studying his watch on purpose, his face filled with open mockery. “One minute left…”As he continued parading his arrogance, the door to the elevator slid open.A few men in pristine suits strode toward Harvey and addressed him with utmost respect. “Mr. York. From today onwards, we’ll be running the Spinning Restaurant. We’ll make sure your reservation for the day after tomorrow is done efficiently!”Everyone took in the scene with stunned shock, utterly baffled.Xynthia was so astonished, her whole body shook.Did Brother-in-law really achieve what he wanted?How was that
The smartly-dressed men tagged submissively behind Harvey York, their heads sinking into deep bows. “M-Mr. York…”“According to Secretary Xavier’s instructions, from today onwards this restaurant will be directly run by Sky Corporation. Do you have any orders for me, sir?”“There’s no need to change the workers or the rules here. Well, except that one rule where you need to pay a hundred and half a million dollars to book the entire place…” Harvey tossed his card and continued, “I want to book this whole venue on the day after tomorrow for a birthday dinner. Remember to decorate the place nicely.”The temporary person-in-charge caught Harvey’s black card with shaky hands.Initially he had been doubtful, but now he’s as certain as ever.This is the man from the legend!Yet seeing how this man always kept a low profile, the temporary person-in-charge didn’t dare to address him with the name that all of Buckwood treated with utmost awe and respect.Since Harvey wanted to pay with t
Without even looking at her, Harvey York said, “Excuse me, I’m here to buy a house.”“What? You’re here to buy a house?” The real estate agent began sizing Harvey up with her eyes.She thought her ears were having problems.Apart from the fact that a young and pretty girl was tagging behind him, this man didn’t look like someone who could afford the properties here.She took in a deep breath and said with a serious tone, “Sir, do you know how much the estates here cost? Our designed houses are at least thirty-thousand dollars per square meter.”“Plus, our property sizes range from at minimum five hundred square metres. Any of them costs at least fifteen million dollars!”“Are you sure you’re really here to buy a house?”Harvey nodded nonchalantly. He was already reading the details and information of the houses on display.Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t stand the real estate agent’s arrogance and blurted, “Didn’t we say we’re here to buy a house? Stop talking nonsense already, won’t yo
Despite her complicated emotions, Tara felt more excited than ever.The reason she had been so determined to work hard was so that she could one day stand before Harvey York and tell him:You looked down on me before. Now, I’m standing at a level you can’t even climb up to!Even when three years had passed after graduation, she never had the chance to do so. Who knew the opportunity would come by knocking today!“My old batch mate, when did you come to Buckwood?”Tara Lewis scrutinized Harvey York from top to bottom as she asked.Harvey replied, “Half a month ago…” “After graduating for so long, I’ve been hearing a lot of strange rumours. It seems that you’re now a live-in son-in-law for a second-class family from Niumhi. Is that true?”“And now, you’re here in Buckwood? Is it because they don’t want you anymore? Are you here to look for another rich woman who would feed you?”“Now that I think about it, I was quite dumb to even confess to you back in college!”“Are you sing
All Tara Lewis could feel was disdain and disappointment.However, she was an exceptional person and suppressed herself from showing any negative emotions. Instead, she put on a smile. “Oh, yes. You’re here to buy a house, Harvey?”“Seeing how we’re old batch mates, I’ll give you the highest discount available.”“Still, I’m afraid that even if I offer you discounts, the houses here are worth at least fifteen million dollars…”“Why don’t I introduce you to the houses in the rural parts of Buckwood. I heard they only cost around a hundred thousand.”Harvey York replied with a smile, “Thank you, but I’m only interested in the houses here.”“Pfft! Ha ha ha ha…”!The other real estate workers all burst out laughing.He’s holding on to his pathetic act to the very end, isn’t he? Tara chuckled. “My old batch mate, it’s not that you’re not allowed to buy the houses here.”“But we don’t accept yearly or monthly payments. You have to pay the full amount.”“Can you… afford that?”Har
