They weren't irreplaceable?The board members simply wanted to threaten Harvey using their potential resignation. But from his tone, it seemed he genuinely wished they could all leave. After giving it a thought, it made sense.Country H Commercial Group's reputation was too strong.There were plenty who were willing to replace them if they were to leave. Not to mention, Harvey could use the empty spots to purchase the loyalty of others. If Harvey allowed their enemies to sit on the board and use the commercial group's reputation against them, even if they wouldn't fail outright, it would certainly be disgusting.When the board members thought things through, they chose to stay quiet. They instantly looked at Leighton, wanting to see how the vice-chairman was going to deal with this situation.Journi looked at Leighton as well, curious.She knew very well that Leighton's biggest wish was to become the commercial group's chairman. Would he leave in a situation like this? Impossib
"Do you really think everyone here is an idiot? That they deserved to be exploited by you? Do you think you have the right to do that?" Harvey went on.Every word Harvey said was enough to silence Leighton. He didn't dare to talk back.The board members were slightly taken aback, and their expressions became a little strange. "When you first became the vice-chairman, you befriended this person, colluded with that person, promised this, swore to do that…" Harvey said. "But in the end? You didn't benefit everyone after you became the vice–chairman, and even used the chance to profit yourself instead."Harvey slammed his hand on the table. His words were enough to cause a riot. "You used the commercial group's reputation to exploit them all and take their hard-earned profit! Where is your conscience? With a style like that, anyone here on the board can be the vice-chairman and perform better than you."Maybe they won't even take any fee for introducing someone else to do business.
Looking at the photos, Leighton was very clear that he had already lost his justifiable cause. His expression instantly turned dark as he clenched his fists. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "My apologies, chairman. It's my fault this time…"Leighton was furious. He wished he could choke Harvey to death right there and then. However, he didn't dare to make any moves at the moment.What happened was enough to make everyone present narrow their eyes. Some of them couldn't even react to what was happening just yet. No one expected Harvey to deal with Leighton so easily.In the beginning, everyone thought that with how forceful Leighton was being, he would easily disgrace the so-called new chairman. But they didn't expect the situation to reverse so quickly. They could only sigh and think to themselves that no one who could be in a leadership position was a fool.However, those who were waiting to see how Harvey was going to make a fool of himself had determined two
Leighton was acting like a gambler who had lost everything. He was going all-in. It was obvious he didn't want to get suppressed by Harvey little by little. What he wanted to do now was to retaliate with everything he had and take back everything."One month? I don't have the time to play around with you." Harvey grinned, then approached Leighton and tapped the latter's face. "Three days. If I can't make the Island Nation investors withdraw in three days, I'll leave. But if I can, you'll have to give up everything you own and leave this group."Harvey didn't want to waste time and wanted to deal with everything in one go. Leighton gritted his teeth. "Fine! I'll do as promised. Everyone here can be our witness! I want to see just how great you are!"-Half an hour later, in a semi-outdoor office at the top of an estate. The warm sunlight showered into the office through the skylight and into the office. However, the brightness wasn't blinding.This was the Country H Commercial Gr
The following day was a beautiful sunny day with no clouds.In a hunting ground in Wolsing's countryside, a sightseeing electric vehicle was slowly moving forward.Leighton, who was in the passenger's seat, turned around and said coldly, "Harvey, Journi. Since you dare to accept my challenge, I'm not afraid to accept the consequences."I've already made an appointment for you with Ms. Haruka Ito, the representative of Hexagon Inc. She will give us ten minutes. If you can convince her to give up their investment in Country H Commercial Group completely within ten minutes, then I'll donate everything I have today and leave without any complaints."If you can't do this today, then I'm sorry, but you'll have to resign later tonight." He lit up his cigar and huffed out a smoke circle, a fake smile plastered on his face.After Leighton had issued the challenge last night, he did something after he went home. Upon midnight, he gave Harvey a call and said he would make an appointment wi
At Zimmer’s Villa in Niumhi. It was beaming with lights. That night was Senior Zimmer’s seventieth birthday party, and it was filled with numerous guests. All of his children and grandchildren presented him with gifts and said in unison, “We wish that Senior Zimmer is always blessed with good health and long life.” Senior Zimmer appeared quite rosy and energetic as he sat on his chair. He replied, “Good. All of you are indeed quite obedient. I’m very happy today, so I’ll grant each and everyone of you a wish! Just tell me what you want.” “Grandpa, I want an apartment near the ocean. It’s not expensive and it’s only over a million dollars…” “Grandpa, I want a Chanel limited edition bag…” “Grandpa, I want a BMW sports car…” “Grandpa, I want a Rolex watch…” “...” “Fine. I’ll grant every one of your wishes!” Senior Zimmer gave them his promise without any hesitation. The young children who asked for the gifts were overjoyed. They nearly kneeled down on the floor in gratitude. Lo
“It’s a message from the Yorks.” Harvey frowned slightly. The Yorks was the most influential family in South Light. At first, Harvey had been the rightful heir. But three years ago, somebody in the family wrongly accused him and claimed that he had embezzled the company’s funds. Therefore, his identity as their heir was eliminated.The entire York family had the same opinion and Harvey was disowned instantly. Furthermore, his parents were directly sent abroad and he had never met them since. “Bullsh*t! The truth is I have nothing but only twenty dollars in my pocket. The family needs financial support. What's the point of looking for me?”As he was thinking about that, he received another message on his phone. “Sir, I’m begging you now. Please help us! Didn’t you purchase some stocks of a gold mine three years ago? Recently, someone found that there’s a great amount of gold in that gold mine. Now, the stock price of that gold mine has increased tremendously!”“Now, the company’s fu
Half an hour later, Harvey reached Mandy’s company. As he was about to enter through the entrance, a bodyguard stopped him with a stun baton all of a sudden. The bodyguard said coldly, “Get lost! We don’t welcome beggars here.”Harvey had just woken up, and he did not manage to clean himself up first. Besides, he was wearing a T-shirt and a pair of shorts with patches all over them. He did seem just like a beggar by the road. However, Harvey was used to that kind of thing. He smiled and said, “Mister, I’m here to send a document to my wife.”“Do you have a wife given the way you look?” The bodyguard was suspicious. “Is it the cleaning lady—Zara or the worker who works at the back kitchen—Lily?” “My wife is Mandy,” said Harvey.The bodyguard was stunned. Soon, he broke into laughter. “I see. You’re the son-in-law of the Zimmers.” He could not cease laughing. Harvey shook his head. It never occurred to him that he was quite famous.“That’s enough. Hand me the document. Miss Zi
