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,
On the next day, the Yateses had arrived.Amongst them were Lilian Yate’s brother-in-law Leyton Luv and her sister Tanya Yates.They booked their rooms at the most luxurious hotel in Buckwood, the Thousand Woods Hotel and even treated their guests to dinner in the same hotel.One night stay in the Thousand Woods Hotel would cost at least a thousand dollars and not to mention the presidential suite which would cost around twelve thousand dollars per night.Every time Leyton and Tanya travelled to places, their rule was to stay in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel without exceptions.After finding out the price, the expressions on Lilian and Simon Zimmer turned miserable.The price for just one night would have covered their living expenses for a long time already.In the VIP888 private room in the hotel’s banquet hall which was on the second floor.There were four people sitting inside.Leyton and Tanya were both seated on the main seats. Xynthia Zimmer on the other h
“Uncle, Auntie and Sister Mandy, from now onward if you face any problems you can find me whenever you want. I will help you settle them all,” Conor Ward said confidently with a smile on his face.Leyton Luv nodded his head in agreement. “Old Zimmer, this kid has great potential and would definitely be a mighty general in the armed forces, it won’t be surprising if he gets promoted to greater positions!”Tanya Yates chuckled. “How could any of those people whom I fancied ever be lacking?“He’s entering the Sword Camp led by Ethan Hunt, once he really gets selected, he would be one of Lieutenant Colonel Ethan’s people from then onward!“Do you all actually know who Ethan Hunt is?”Simon who knew about it immediately replied, “Ethan Hunt is the Lieutenant Colonel of the Sword Army, and is even the leader of South Lights’ Four Gods of War. Rumor has it that he’s on the same level as the first-in-command of South Lights!”“Mm… It seems that you and your family still have some knowled
Taking in everyone’s surprised looks, Conor Ward continued gleefully, “All of you might not know about this, do you? Prince York is actually the crownless King of South Light!“This is a major secret, anyone who’s not in the army won't know about this!“Legend has it that back when the Sword Camp travelled far to Central America to battle against America, Prince York as the leader of a thousand soldiers in that war holding out against tens of thousands of enemies, and led the Sword Camp to wipe out the American Delta Force!“So even though Prince York is not someone in the armed forces, his status and power in South Light is unimaginable to normal people!“For me, I only had the right to know about this because I’m entering the entrance examination! No outsiders will ever know about this!”“What is more, I heard that it has been three years since Prince York has attended the Sword Camp’s entrance examination, which is why he’ll probably attend this time!”Conor had a look of admi
Everyone was looking at the direction where Harvey York was.Even Mandy Zimmer furrowed her eyebrows.In her eyes, Harvey always enjoyed bluffing and this trait of him simply boasting about anything wasn’t something that could be corrected in this life of his anymore.“Pfft!” Conor Ward burst out laughing out of the blue. “Ha ha ha ha… What did you just say? You can attend the entrance examination anytime you like? Who do you think you are?“I’m going to laugh till I die!“Didn’t you know about this?“There are only certain people who are qualified to participate in this entrance examination. Only the best ten soldiers of every army district have the chance to attend!“Only among these selected people can bring three family members to attend this event!“A mere live-in son-in-law and a garbage like you even wish to join?”Harvey shrugged casually, “Yeah, you were also informed that you can bring up to three family members?”“Besides, this time I’m specifically invited by some
After stating his expectation, Conor Ward left the hall arrogantly.Leaving Simon Zimmer and the rest to look at each other not knowing what to do.Lilian Yates spoke up helplessly, “The Yates family and Wards are both esteemed families with strict family traditions, they would never be able to stand people like this! It would be weird if they didn’t get mad!”Simon gave a death stare to Harvey York and bellowed, “You piece of trash, not only you can’t do anything to help us, you even ruined our plan and embarrassed us in different ways!“I wish I could kill you with a big slap!”Smack!After ending his lecture, Simon tried to slap him.Instead, Mandy Zimmer swiftly blocked the slap. If it wasn’t for her, this slap would’ve landed on Harvey’s face.“Dad, Mom, this is not something serious. After two days when uncle and aunt's rage subside we’ll apologise to them!”Mandy persuaded.“Not something serious? Because of him, we have embarrassed ourselves in front of the Yates fami
In the car, the sergeant who was driving was also from the military of South Light. At the moment, he smiled and said, “Brother Ward, you’re very lucky!“The Sword Camp rarely recruited people over the years and very few people have been able to enroll in the past three years.“I heard that Lieutenant Colonel Ethan decided to recruit more people because of Prince York’s return to Buckwood.“This time, not only you can meet Lieutenant Colonel Ethan, but it is said that he had gone to fetch Prince York himself early in the morning.“Prince York, he’s the true crownless King of our South Light army!“It’s such a great honor for you to be able to meet him!”Conor Ward was also excited at this moment.Prince York, the legendary figure in the South Light army.Although people who could achieve victory in purgatory such as the Central American battlefield weren’t the Gods of War in the army, but still they were the idols of many sergeants.“Yeah, previously I didn’t know that the leg
