“Right! I almost forgot about it this year!“Let’s go, we’re going out for a while!”Harvey York was deep in thought before, but then he abruptly stood up.Xynthia Zimmer was showing a face full of discontent. She stared at Harvey fumingly.‘Gosh, this brother-in-law!’Harvey did not even move an inch when she nagged about it. But once she mentioned her sister, he immediately stood up.Outside the district Yvonne Xavier had prepared a Mercedes Maybach this time around.The exterior of the car looked ordinary, but it would be an entirely different world once inside.“Brother-in-law, how did you get this car? Rumors say that the car’s only custom made, you can’t even get it domestically. You’d have to import it from overseas.”Xynthia was an expert after all. It was essential for her to have basic knowledge about luxury items and cars because she was born into an upper class family.“Somebody else brought it to me, it’s not mine.” Harvey replied.Both of them got into the car

This was a part of Buckwood’s business, a tourist centre.Buckwood Tower was primarily the landmark building of Buckwood.There was a shopping centre located at a lower level of Buckwood Tower, all of the world renowned luxury items were sold there.Once they had ridden the elevator for a hundred floors and got to the top, there was the tallest revolving restaurant in Buckwood.The walls around the restaurant were all transparent, anyone could see the full expanse of Buckwood just by sitting there.Besides, all the chefs here had three Michelin stars. They all had a high worth, their cooking skills were extraordinary.It would easily cost more than thousands of dollars just for a meal here.Most importantly, people would need to make appointments to eat here. Ordinary people could not even book a spot there.Sometimes, the official website would be open for appointments, the seats would all be fully booked within a minute.People that dine here were some of the most wealthy bu

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

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
