Chapter 123
The news that Zack Zimmer had gone over and asked Yvonne Xavier out spread all over the city of Niumhi right after the incident happened. At the same time, the business partnership between the Yorks and the Zimmers had stiffened up because of him as well.…Zimmer Villa.The whole Zimmer family was gathered in the living hall of the villa. None of them knew what to do. Even Senior Zimmer carried a dark expression on his face.Zack Zimmer stood in the middle of the hall, ashamed and panicky, as his surrounding family members threw insult after insult at him with looks of disapproval.“You’re such an idiot, Zack Zimmer!”“Didn’t you say Yvonne Xavier had feelings for you? What now? You’re nothing!”“I knew for a fact that you’re not reliable at all! Never!”“I don’t care what you had to do, but you need to give us an explanation on this! You ruined not just our business operation, but also the Zimmers’ reputation!”The Zimmers grew even angrier as they went on, flames of fury bu

“Think of something? What can you even do? Propose to someone else? Who, the CEO? The problem is, the CEO’s a man!”Someone from the crowd exclaimed.Following this, a few of them began throwing criticisms at Zack once more. ‘According to the original plan, everything would be fine if Mandy Zimmer was the one who got the contract, even if it meant everyone would receive less money. But this troublemaker had to ruin the plan and stir up chaos, further escalating their chances of going bankrupt. Were it not for Senior Zimmer, Zack would have surely been shred to bones and pieces right there and then.’“Yeah! If only we followed Mandy’s plan!”“Boasting on and on about how great you are! See what’s happening now? You’re trash!”“Zack Zimmer, don’t tell me you’re actually one of the spies from the other families?”Zack expressed his dismay, “My dear uncles, all of you have been supporting me from the start. What’s more, I’m also one of the victims here! Please don’t worry, I’ll wor

“Old Man Stone, how can you add insult to the injury at a time like this?”“Yeah! Where are your business ethics?”“Last night, all of you arrived with fancy gifts in order for us to propose to you partnerships. And now in just one day, you’re retracting them? How despicable!”Upon hearing that, Yohann Stone and others did not back down and continued to retaliate.Filled with rage, Senior Zimmer slammed the table and bellowed, “Enough!”Only until the voices died down did he turn to Yohann Stone. With a sincere look on his face, he asked, “My friends Stone and Brooke, I cannot do anything now that you have decided on this. Given that we’ve been partners for so many years, could you possibly give us three days to fix this problem? We’ll terminate our contracts if we still can’t solve the problem in three days. How about that?”Yohann Stone and the rest exchanged glances of agreement and nodded. “Alright. We’ll give you three days, seeing as how we’ve been business partners for suc

Senior Zimmer smiled, his eyes glinting. “Mandy, I know you feel wronged and you’re mad at us. I apologize for not trusting you wholeheartedly before. Sean, Zack, come over and apologize to Mandy as well!”Sean and Zack Zimmer glanced at one another awkwardly. They were already used to having people bow to them. To have either of them to apologize to Mandy, the family’s outcast, proved difficult indeed.The thing was, they had little choice but to do so. Taking in a deep breath as he faced Mandy Zimmer, Zack Zimmer bowed his body slightly and apologized. “Mandy, this time it’s my fault that I caused all of this trouble. Please forgive me.”A wicked grin flashed briefly across his face as he kept his head down, but he hid it well.On the other hand, Sean Zimmer grinned like a Cheshire cat and said, “Mandy, now that Zack has apologized, as your uncle I will also apologize to you. I promise the same thing will never happen again. Can you visit York Enterprise for my sake?”“For your

“Sir, your wife is here again for the matter regarding the investment. What should we do about it?” This time, Wendy Sorell really didn’t know what to do. Had it been Zack Zimmer again, she could kick him out with no issue. However, Mandy’s identity was too special for her to do anything as absurd.“Oh, her again?” Harvey York pondered for a moment and understood instantly. A man as cunning as Senior Zimmer would have obviously thought of this solution, since the Zimmers wouldn’t survive a second longer without the partnership with York Enterprise.Mandy Zimmer’s face flashed in his mind. Harvey York softened up slightly and said, “Then, this time, we’ll give them an investment fund of fifty million dollars…”“Huh?” Wendy Sorell couldn’t believe her ears.“The contract would be the same as last time.” Harvey York added. “If the Zimmers do anything stupid again, we’ll have guaranteed access to this property right away.” Realization dawned across Wendy’s face. The CEO was as smart

CEO’s office.Staring at the screen with both hands behind his back, Harvey chuckled. “Wendy Sorell’s doing a good job here. When the time comes, I should promote her as the general manager.”Yvonne Xavier, who was wearing her hair down, stood behind him. At his words, she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and lightly replied, “Yes, then I’ll thank the CEO on behalf of Wendy for now…”Harvey York smiled and said, “Remind Wendy Sorell to wholeheartedly do her job as a good actress. There’s no need to be so polite just because Mandy’s my wife. I don’t even know how long we can last as husband and wife…”Saying this, Harvey York sighed. His feelings for Mandy were real. However…Upon hearing that, Yvonne Xavier was struck with shock. She didn’t seem to have absorbed the earlier parts of his words. “CEO, you… do you want a divorce?!”“Is it strange that I want to divorce her?” Looking outside with a faraway stare, Harvey York sighed. “I admit I definitely feel something deeper a

An Amex Card!The card lying before her was indeed the legendary Amex Black Card! There were no more than five pieces of Amex Black Cards in the whole city of Niumhi. Whoever owned this card must be someone distinguished and reputable!Even with this thought in mind, Sheri Wilson calmed herself down. There were only so few Amex Black Card holders, and the bank even had a special customer service counter for the sake of these customers’ privacy. It’s definitely impossible for them to come all the way here over a matter as trivial as increasing the withdrawal amount! Plus, these customers were prestigious folk who donned fancy attire. They wouldn’t even bother lining up to small cashiers like these.Sheri Wilson’s mind was fixated. Either this card was fake, or it was stolen from somewhere else!‘People nowadays really do have the guts to try this, huh?’Looking at Harvey York, Sheri Wilson shook her head inwardly. Her upper lip curled even more in disdain.The next thing he knew,

As she spoke, Sheri Wilson laughed scornfully in her mind. Yvonne Xavier’s looks, body and elegance weren’t just a class above hers. Sheri was envious, but she refused to admit it.‘This thief is something else. He went around lying to people that he’s a CEO, how shameless can this man be?’Yvonne Xavier fixed her gaze on Sheri Wilson and said in a serious tone, “Please be mindful of your language. This is our company’s CEO. If you keep up with this disrespectful act, we don’t mind opening an account at another bank. Your bank may be reputable, but there are other banks in this city as well.”‘Our very own CEO who invested millions of dollars without even blinking an eye, and you called him a thief? This has to be the worst joke ever.’Sheri Wilson sized Yvonne Xavier up and down and replied contemptuously, “Should I believe you just because you’re saying he’s not a thief? Do you even know what’s an Amex Black Card? Only people who own billions of dollars in our bank would have the
