Chapter 312
At the CEO’s office.Yvonne Xavier and Wendy Sorrell were both seated quietly. When they heard the door being pushed open, they stood up at the same time.Standing before them was an old woman. Yvonne and Wendy were both a little nervous as the woman’s aura was quite intimidating. Her stern presence was not like any normal person's, and dominated the entire room.Yvonne who came from an established background was frozen to the spot, while Wendy who was from a normal family did not dare say a word.Thea York glared at Yvonne and Wendy. The CEO's secretaries were quite cute; no wonder her kept man, Wyatt Johnson, did not come back home last night.“Who are you? This is the CEO’s office. How can you just casually walk in?” Yvonne calmed herself down and asked, raising an eyebrow.Thea eyed Yvonne disdainfully. “What right does a lil’ b*tch like you have to ask who I am? Ask your CEO to come out and see me!”When Yvonne heard her words, her brows furrowed. What had happened in the p

“I don’t know what rubbish your man is made of but don’t you worry, I’ve no interest in competing with a dominatrix!” Although Yvonne’s lips were bleeding from the beating, she did not hold back.At that moment, Wendy Sorrell knew she had to step in, or Yvonne might be beaten to death right there and then. She did not dare fight back, and could only rush toward Yvonne and stand in front of her. She said lightly, “Miss Xavier, please don’t say anymore. Let’s wait for the CEO to return. You cannot always bear the burden by yourself, he’s the CEO, after all…”“You’re protecting her and yet you claim that you’re not snatching my man away?” Thea York laughed frostily then turned to look at Wendy. “You kneel down too, you lil’ pig, or else I’ll teach you a lesson too!”Wendy felt conflicted, but when she saw Yvonne in pain, she had no choice but to kneel. If she continued to be stubborn, she would end up like Yvonne.Thea was very pleased to see the two women who had snatched her man aw

“Do you think that you’re in the capital?” Harvey York spoke icily. “Do you think that this place is just like the York family where you can play tricks and bully others?”“Oh? Isn’t it?” Thea York’s eyes were brimming with contempt. “Even if this is not the city, you’re just trash that’s being thrown away by the family. Do you think that you can win against me?”Harvey glanced at her bodyguards and scoffed, “Do you think that this rubbish you brought here can beat me?”Thea mocked, “Harvey, I heard that you’ve become the live-in son-in-law of some Zimmer family. Don’t blame me for not warning you. If you dare make a move, I’ll make the whole Zimmer family pay for your sins!”“Also, since you’re still alive, I would like to say this to your face: York Enterprise belongs to me. This is my present to that dog of mine. If you dare walk in here next time, I’ll make other people break both your legs!”Her dog?Yvonne Xavier and Wendy Sorrell looked at each other. They seemed to unders

“Are you wondering why I have such skills?” Harvey smirked.Thea York was shocked to the core and collapsed on the sofa in a disheveled heap. Her breathing quickened as she asked, “How could this be?”“It’s simple, really. If I didn’t have these skills, I would not only have been driven out three years ago, I would be dead. Do you understand?” Harvey said slowly.Thea’s eyes widened. She had not known why Harvey had managed to stay alive three years ago, but now she knew.The York family would usually kill an abandoned heir, without a doubt. Why would they allow him to be a live-in son-in-law? It was a hidden danger for them.However, this abandoned heir could not be properly dealt with. Could the York family not even take his life?Under these circumstances, would the family not have planted a trap at the very least?“Harvey… I admit that I looked down on you. However, so what if you have some skills? In this age, we don’t look at great fighting skills anymore. No matter how st

Harvey York smiled cruelly as he grabbed Wyatt Johnson’s neck, lifting him up with one hand. He snarled softly, “Do you not understand the situation? Do you think that this old b*tch can really protect you?” Harvey flung him away roughly.Thud!Two of Wyatt’s teeth fell out, and he squealed like a pig who was being slaughtered. However, this was the CEO’s exclusive floor. No one else was around aside from them.Thea York’s heart clenched at the sight, and she quickly tugged on Harvey’s arm. “Let go of him, Harvey. He is my precious sweetheart. If you dare hurt him, I’ll make sure that you’ll end up not having a body to bury!”Harvey kicked her and Thea was sent crashing to the ground. However, Thea refused to give up. She hugged Harvey’s calf and held on. “Let go of him! Let go of him!”Harvey smiled frostily. He loosened his left hand and hit Wyatt’s belly with his fist.Wyatt wailed loudly, his whole body curled up like a fetus. He was in such excruciating pain that sweat cov

Wyatt Johnson was her kept man. He had been ruthlessly tortured by Thea for the past few days until he had turned haggard. He did not even dare to raise his voice in front of her, how could he lay a finger on her now?However, if he did not hit her, Tyson Woods would beat her to a pulp.“Your strength must be to Yvonne Xavier’s satisfaction. If she’s not happy with it, then we do not count that slap. You’ll need to take note of that when you beat her,” Harvey York casually reminded Wyatt.Wyatt trembled as he stood up. He looked at Harvey, then turned to Thea. He could not bear to hit her after he had raised his hand.Thea closed her eyes and yelled, “Wyatt, if you dare let me be hit a second time, I’ll abandon you!”Wyatt gritted his teeth. He had been her kept man for so long. He sucked up to this old woman and allowed her to disgrace him. He had lost his dignity long ago, but a fire had been lit in his heart for the past two days.He gritted his teeth and slapped her. Slap!
Chapter 318
After Ella Graves’ thorough checkup, Yvonne Xavier’s injuries were determined to not be that serious. She just needed to rest for ten to fifteen days and she would fully recover.Wendy Sorrell’s wounds were not serious either. Ella estimated that she would only need three days of rest.However, they both would not be able to go to work for sure. They needed to recuperate at home.Yvonne agreed that she and Wendy should rest and allow their wounds to heal. Harvey would need to personally take care of York Enterprise’s matters for the time being. ***One week later, Wendy came back to work. Yvonne still needed a few more days of rest.Wendy somewhat understood Yvonne’s tasks, so under Yvonne’s instructions, she temporarily took over her job.In the CEO’s office, Harvey was looking at some documents when Wendy carefully knocked on the door and entered. She handed him an invitation card and said, “CEO, the Naiswell family from the capital will be organizing an antique fair here in
Chapter 319
The members of the Zimmer family looked at each other. They had heard about this and even heard that the Naiswells had officially invited the new CEO of York Enterprise to participate in the Antique Fair.The first-class families in Niumhi had all received invitations to the event, but the Zimmer family still had not received one. It must be because they had gone unnoticed by the Naiswells.The Naiswells—the first-class family in the provincial town. They were a supreme existence and all families had to look up to them if they stayed in Niumhi. It would be a huge honor to be able to receive an invitation to the Antique Fair. Although the Zimmer family had achieved something this year, they still had to work harder if they wanted the Naiswells to take them seriously.Although the Zimmer family thought so, Senior Zimmer did not. He drummed his fingers on the table and said, “Everyone, we finally have some achievements this year. The project of the commercial center as well as the coop
