Even as night arrived, Harvey York did not return.The news made Mandy Zimmer faint once more. She still could not accept the fact that her husband was already dead.Senior Zimmer organized a huge evening banquet, saying it was to mourn for Harvey York’s death. In truth, it was a celebration.The Zimmers had finally gotten rid of the live-in son-in-law!In her confusion, Mandy Zimmer was taken to the banquet by Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates.Xynthia Zimmer, on the other hand, had locked herself in her room with no intention of coming out. Hidden inside with no one to see, her tears kept flowing out to the point she was almost blinded by them.At the Zimmer Villa… Senior Zimmer stood up, trembling, as he held a cup full of wine.“Tonight’s goal of the banquet is simple!”“Number one: to restore Mandy Zimmer’s identity as a Zimmer!”“Number two: to celebrate Mandy Zimmer in finally regaining her freedom, completely free from her shackles!”“Number three: to preach our continu
“Do I look like a ghost to you?”Harvey York strode into the hall full of terrified people staring at him, and stopped right in front of Zack Zimmer.Zack Zimmer trembled and reached out to touch Harvey’s hand. Perplexed, he stammered, “It’s warm? You’re still alive? How could this be?”Harvey York replied coolly, “Seems like you really want me dead.”“Huh? Oh, no!” Zack Zimmer subconsciously denied the claim. He was not sure why he was so scared of Harvey York’s aura.“Harvey!”Mandy Zimmer had returned to her senses the moment Harvey appeared. She rushed toward him and hugged him tightly.Harvey York returned the hug and patted her on the head.“I’ve made you worry, I should’ve come back sooner…”“No, I’m glad you were able to come home…”The watching spectators grew disgusted by the heartwarming scene played by the two.Senior Zimmer barely stopped himself from trembling. He looked at Harvey York with a bewildered stare.“Impossible! The Silvas and Chopper Lyon wouldn’t
The next day, early morning.The Zimmer family had eagerly followed Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer to the Silva Corporation. Even the unstable Senior Zimmer had come along with them.How glorious this must be! There was no way he would allow himself to miss it!The Zimmers became exhilarated when they saw the Silva Corporation’s hundred-storey office building.Even though the Silva Corporation could not compare to the Sky Corporation, it was already quite an impressive company.Since Sky Corporation was directly under Prince York’s command, not just any ordinary company could compare itself to Sky Corporation.Even among the first-rated families in all of Buckwood, a business like Silva Corporation was scarce.Right now, the Zimmers were filled with excitement.Mandy Zimmer was no different.After finding the reception desk in the hall, Harvey York immediately expressed his intentions.“I’m Harvey York, I’m here to take over the Silva Corporation!”The receptionist looked at
The previous CEO of Silva Corporation was Leon Silva.But he had already resigned the day before, and had returned all of the Silvas’ shares.Quinton York’s most trusted subordinate, Joel Flynn, was temporarily appointed as Silva Corporation’s new CEO.He was a returned college student, trained by Quinton York during the last two years.When he unexpectedly received the news that he’d be appointed as the CEO of Silva Corporation the day before, Joel Flynn became excited to the point he could not sleep.To be the CEO of a million dollar corporation was truly the peak of life!As for why the Silvas had forfeited all of their shares and why Leon Silva would willingly give up his position of CEO, he did not know. He did not want to know, either.He only knew that he had successfully risen up the ranks.Quinton York only had one request for Joel Flynn: properly manage Silva Corporation. If anyone dared to take the Silva Corporation, he was asked to end their lives.Joel Flynn has t
Embarrassing!Truly humiliating!At that moment, the Zimmers felt like country bumpkins entering a city for the first time, like simpletons overwhelmed by luxurious surroundings. They were as ashamed as they could be.The Zimmers might not even have another chance at making a living in Buckwood. They’re being turned into laughing stocks here!“Hurry up and leave! Silva Corporation doesn’t welcome idiots!”“Security, get these poor people out of here!”At Joel Flynn’s orders, a crowd of security guards came out and surrounded them.Harvey York and the Zimmers were swiftly kicked out.“Bunch of idiots!” The security guard exclaimed.Every single one of the security guards were laughing their stomachs off. This was their first time in their career seeing people this dumb.Disgraceful!This was the most disgraceful thing that the Zimmers had experienced, by far!Even outsiders would soon know of their shameful experience!In the future, the Zimmers would be the biggest laughin
Seeing how Mandy Zimmer still tried to comfort herself even in a situation like this, Harvey York smiled.“Alright, I’ll listen to you in the future.”“But rest assured, I’ll have Silva Corporation sooner or later.”“When that time comes, I’ll change the name to Zimmer and hand it over to you as a gift.”Harvey York narrowed his eyes, he was truly prepared to do as he said. To him, this matter was nothing difficult anyway.As soon as Quinton York was dealt with, this plan would be set in stone.“Stop bragging already!”“I really want to slap you dead!”Senior Zimmer took a deep breath, and gave another warning.“Simon, take care of your own live-in son-in-law! He has nothing to do with the Zimmers in the future!”“Don’t drag the family down with you if something were to happen!”“If not, don’t blame us for kicking your family out!”“Leave!”Senior Zimmer turned to leave after speaking, boiling with anger.Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates glared at Harvey York furiously and s
The social circle of the upper class elites in Buckwood wasn’t large, but it was not that small either.Yet in the span of a single day, news of the Silvas’ defeat in Buckwood had spread like wildfire.Aside from that, the upstarts in Buckwood, the Zimmers, actually tried to take over Silva Corporation.Naturally, this matter was treated as a joke by many. The Zimmers were unable to hold their heads up high anymore.Even Senior Zimmer didn’t dare to walk out of the villa, afraid that people would point fingers at him.In a single night, the Zimmers had become the laughing stock of Buckwood's upper class elites.The story had also cancelled out the sudden shock regarding the Silvas’ sudden retreat.When people talked about the Silvas, the Zimmers would be mentioned as well.Fortunately, Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer did not live with Simon Zimmer at the moment. If not, Simon Zimmer wouldn't have dared stepping outside with his family.Only Xynthia Zimmer knew that her brother-
“Oh, right. Godfather and Godmother are coming to Buckwood. When they get here, they’ll treat us to food. You should come along, brother-in-law!” Xynthia Zimmer told him the reason for her being there, grinning.“Sure.”Harvey York didn’t know much about how Xynthia Zimmer met a nobleman when she was born. Under the man’s guidance, she was recognized by a husband and wife with a high status as their goddaughter.Once every year, Xynthia Zimmer would go and stay with the married couple for a while.This married couple must have come from a powerful family. Even though they recognized Xynthia Zimmer as their goddaughter, they rarely involved themselves with the Zimmers.This was why Harvey York had never seen her godparents.Since they were people of high stature, something big must have happened if they wanted to come.That night, Simon Zimmer called over Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer to accompany him.Simon Zimmer sent Harvey a furious glare. He then took a deep breath and said,
