Chapter 230
Everyone was jolted and stared at Harvey York incredulously, they never would have expected Harvey would do that in this crucial moment, and without thinking twice, he picked up some and threw at Zack Zimmer’s face again.How unlucky could Zack be that he couldn’t dodge the ash thrown by Harvey at him for so many times!But Harvey was too crazy himself for his own good, who knew that he could act like that? He shouldn’t be allowed to attend this meeting in the first place!“Harvey, you really think I can’t kick your as* huh? I’d call people up to punch you to death!” Zack yelled furiously while covering up his nose.“Who, Covey Chad?” Harvey asked nonchalantly.“Yeah, Brother Chad! Me and him you have no idea how close we are, he would…” As he was enraged he didn’t manage to filter his words properly, but it was only that moment he realised he said something wrong, his face instantly turned as pale as sheet.“’Brother Chad’, so friendly.” Harvey chuckled. “Don’t you forget that a

The rest of them fixed their gazes on Mandy. At that moment, she was furious. Harvey only sighed inwardly. He finally understood it now. Regardless of the incident concerning the shopping centre, Senior Zimmer would never do anything to Zack.For Senior Zimmer, there was a vast difference between men and women. Now, it had caused quite a huge mess. Harvey knew that he should just let it be. If not, his wife’s situation might take an even worse turn. After thinking about it for a short while, Harvey sent a text message to Mandy. Mandy glanced at her phone, and then trembled slightly. It was because Harvey had asked her to agree to resolve this issue. He also wanted her to make a request. Mandy looked at Harvey, who smiled faintly and said, “Trust me.” Mandy remembered what happened the day before yesterday. She chose to believe in him. In that instant, she took a deep breath and stood up. She said, “Grandpa, you should know more than me how troublesome this problem is. Sinc
Chapter 232
In actuality, Senior Zimmer was unwilling to allow Mandy to be in charge of the company’s finances. Doing so meant she would enjoy a powerful status among the Zimmers, to the extent she would influence Zack’s position in the family. Yet at this moment, it seemed like they had run out of options. Should Mandy refuse to take the initiative and resolve this mess, the Zimmers would teeter on the edge of bankruptcy. “Grandpa, don’t trust her! How could she possibly solve a problem this huge? York Enterprise even issued a legal letter to us! I’m afraid she might have conspired with York Enterprise beforehand. She just wants to use this opportunity to lie to us and gain an upper hand among the Zimmers!” Zack was anxious. Before, he badly wanted to pin the blame on Mandy and make her take responsibility for the entire mess. Now, he was afraid if Senior Zimmer would truly agree to Mandy’s request. If ever Mandy was given the privilege to manage the finances, it would be extremely diffi
Chapter 233
“Mandy will definitely be screwed this time around. How could she possibly pacify York Enterprise with her meagre skills? I’ve inquired about it before. The new CEO of York Enterprise is quite mysterious and keeps a low profile. No one’s ever seen him.”Quinn remarked coldly. After the family meeting ended, everyone dispersed. She and Zack had left together.“Normally, Mandy wouldn't be able to. The problem is, she was able to solve the investment problems before. I fear something unexpected might happen.” Zack couldn’t help but worry. “If we let her manage the company finances, we’ll suffer terribly in the future.” “What’s there to worry about? Unless she sleeps with the CEO of York Enterprise, it’ll never happen. Look at her! Her husband’s such a worthless piece of trash.” Quinn said viciously. “Why would that rich man be willing to do such a thing? Even touching her would be unfortunate!” She was on the same side as Zack. If Mandy was in power, she would suffer as well. “I h
Chapter 234
After a brief pause, Mandy took a deep breath. “Miss Xavier, I understand the conditions you mentioned, but please trust me. We Zimmers definitely didn’t do any of those things on purpose. This shopping centre project is incredibly important for us.” Momentary silence followed. Yvonne broke into a sudden smile. “If anyone else came and requested this, I’d definitely have security throw that person out by now.”“But before I came, the CEO specially told me that he likes ‘The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak’ painting very much. Because of that, he agreed to do you another favor. We hope that the Zimmers will learn their lesson and not create any more problems for this project again.“If another similar incident occurs again in the future, I’m afraid that the CEO will not entertain your requests anymore.” ‘Is that it? Surprisingly, the CEO’s actually giving us a favor.’Previously, Harvey only mentioned that casually. Although Mandy trusted him, she was not that confident herself.
Chapter 235
Suddenly Quinn barged into Zack’s office, her face the epitome of anxiety. Her makeup was ruined. “Zack, we’re in big trouble! Did you hear?” “What the hell is with you?” Zack asked nonchalantly. “Why are you in such a hurry?” “I passed by the legal department just now. I heard that York Enterprise just retracted the legal letter!” Quinn was dumbfounded. ‘It’s only been one night! How could something this big happen so quickly?’ At this, Zack frowned. “Did you hear wrong? York Enterprise is a huge company. How is it possible for them to change their decision in such a short time? They retracted the legal letter they issued only the day before yesterday? Is this a joke?” “It’s true! The entire company is discussing it right now. I also heard that the lawyer was quite polite and cordial this time. He’s completely different from how arrogant he was when he came before.” Quinn looked frightened. “What?” Zack grew agitated and fell off his chair. He got back up awkwardly, gritt
Chapter 236
Senior Zimmer smiled faintly, but he did not spare Zack the slightest glance. He continued, “Mandy is an exceptional person among the Zimmers. She’s holding two posts concurrently, as both the project manager of the shopping centre and the finance manager. It’s rather difficult for her. As she has heavy responsibilities, I decided someone should help her shoulder some of the burden.”“Zack. After much thought, I feel you are the most suitable person for this position. From today onwards, you are the Zimmers’ vice chairman. You must work hard and help Mandy to handle all kinds of issues, and contribute to our Zimmers. Do you understand that?” All of the people present exchanged helpless glances with one another, stunned. It never occurred to them that Senior Zimmer would promote Zack at such a critical moment. The problem was, lately Zack failed to perform well. To top it off, he repeatedly burdened the Zimmers. Because of him, the Zimmers fell on the verge of bankruptcy several t
Chapter 237
“Senior Zimmer said he wants somebody to share my responsibilities, so he made Zack the vice chairman of Zimmer Enterprise.” Mandy spat angrily. “He even told me to discuss things with Zack if anything happens.” “I see.” Harvey frowned. “I never imagined Senior Zimmer would be shameless to this extent, just to suppress your power within the family.” “He clearly said that if I managed to settle our problems, he’d give me the sole responsibility for the shopping centre project and the company finances.” Mandy was puzzled, unable to understand how things had escalated to this point.“It’s quite simple.” Harvey said. “He doesn’t want you to have too large an authority in Zimmer Enterprise. It’ll affect Zack’s status. After all, for him, Zack is the heir of the Zimmers!” “Why? Isn’t he afraid I might refuse to help?” Mandy could not accept this. “If it wasn’t for me, would York Enterprise have done the Zimmers a favor? If I didn’t care about the Zimmers, how long can they survive?”
