"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
Harvey glanced at Leighton and smiled. "Thank you for caring about me, Leighton. Unfortunately, what you hope will happen later will never happen. If I were you, I'd make a call and have someone move my assets or something. Otherwise, all you might have left when you lose is the clothes on your back."It was obvious Leighton knew more than he let on. His eyes glinted as he smiled coldly. "Fine. Since you're that confident, I hope everything will go well for you later!"Leighton then ignored Harvey and quietly pulled out his phone, sending out a text. He was currently quite pleased. He was one of the hidden pawns for a scion who left for Dark Island all those years ago.A lot of people believed Leighton was also backed by the Islanders. The truth was that his biggest backer was the Dark Island's Serpent King, who would return as a king after owning a large dominion in Dark Island!According to Leighton's understanding, not only was the Dark Island's Serpent King wealthy, but he wa
"I'm too late, but I swear in front of you, I will take that man's head as an offering for you at the end of your Period of Mourning. Harvey York will die!" Nicholas, who had been fighting in Dark Island for five years, exuded a murderous aura. It was enough to make the temperature around them drop."Serpent King, there is no doubt that Harvey York will die, but please don't forget your orders!" said the man behind Nicholas. "Harvey has ruined Evermore's plans again and again. As Evermore's Serpent King in the Dark Island, you must clear Evermore's humiliation upon your return to Wolsing."Aside from killing him, make all of his women yours. Make all that belonged to him yours. You will make him lose everything and die suffering. Anything else will be insufficient to show the power of Evermore.""Are you telling me how to do things?" Nicholas slowly stood up and glanced at the man behind him. Even if he was one of the rules of Dark Island's criminal world, he couldn't help but shu
Leighton put on a bold face as he walked over and bowed a little when he saw Haruka approaching them. "Ms. Haruka, I know today is Hexagon Inc.'s team-building exercise. Outsiders like us shouldn't be here, but our chairman Mr. Harvey York wishes to discuss something with you. That's why we're here.""Discuss? What's there to be discussed?" Haruka scoffed. "Have you forgotten that Hexagon Inc. is Country H Commercial Group's largest shareholder? I can say that we're your boss. This so-called chairman is, at most, a living sign. At worst? He's just another one of our employees. What's there to discuss?"Leighton smiled. "He wishes for your company to withdraw all your investments from the group…""I refuse," Haruka said without even giving Harvey a look. "If there's nothing else, leave. Get out of my sight.""Ms. Haruka Ito, is it?" Harvey said with a calm smile as he narrowed his eyes. "I checked last night, and your company has used multiple channels to obtain the group's shares.
"The last Islander who dared to speak to me like that got in a coffin for a long time," Harvey said with a dry smile. The entire atmosphere cooled down when the Islanders what Harvey had said. Their expressions were especially gloomy.It was Hexagon Inc.'s team-building exercise today. For saying something like that in a place like this, Harvey wasn't showing any respect to the Islanders and Hexagon Inc. Nicholas, who was standing in the corner discreetly, revealed a cold smile. In an instant, he put down the wine glass in his hand and walked over, filled with murderous intent.A woman like Haruka was difficult to obtain. Even a warrior from the Dark Island like Nicholas had to use everything he knew to be able to get to her. To save her in a place like this… The effects would more than double. Originally, Nicholas was going to start a fight with Harvey. An opportunity like this was more than suitable."Enough! Why are you so bold to speak to Ms. Haruka in such a manner?" Nich
