Chapter 702
Right now, Yonathan York, Quinton York, and the higher ups within the Yorks grew slightly anxious.Naturally, they realized that this man was none other than Harvey York.They could only helplessly watch as the man that they had forced away out of Buckwood three years ago stood right in front of them, fully intact.Even to the point of saying something so provocative…Was this his way of provoking the prestige of the York family?If it weren’t for the fact that today was the birthday banquet, and if this was a different occasion, there would already be people ready to take Harvey York down.After all, there were too little opportunities of Harvey York being alone.Maybe there would be no other chances to take him down if they missed this one.Just then, Harvey York let out a small chuckle.“It’d be best if nobody was actually crippled.”“After all, I heard that a famous doctor, Tobias Baker was taken to the border to operate on wounded soldiers. I don’t think he’ll be back so

Grandma York’s banquet had officially begun. The guests all sat on their seats in order.Grandma York sat in a box on her own, looking noble yet mysterious.The guests, on the other hand, have their own own seats in the venue.The invitation that Xynthia Zimmer had received did not enable her to sit that far ahead, but a seat back in the middle row.Harvey York did not mind that much. He went ahead and sat down beside Xynthia Zimmer.As for Rosalie Naiswell, Bruce Cloude, and the rest were sitting in the middle seats that were near to the front rows.The front most seats were reserved for the people with the highest statuses.The people that attended the banquet that day had come from different types of businesses and backgrounds.Government officials, mob circles, people in the military, and even the people in business circles were there. All of them had high statuses.This was enough to prove how terrifying the Yorks’ connections and influence were.The top-rated family in

The front row seats were almost filled up when the big characters were all introduced one by one.But there was still a spot empty in the middle.Everyone knew that there was only one man capable of sitting there from previous events.And that was the legendary Prince York!However, today, it would be different.This day, the seat was for the head of the four Gods of War in South Light!The man that could work side by side with the first-in-command, Lieutenant Colonel Ethan Hunt’s seat!Even though Ethan Hunt was just a lieutenant colonel, his authority had far surpassed expectations.Yonathan York looked at the crowd’s faces full of anticipation, then smiled and exclaimed, “Everyone, please give your loudest applause to the head of the four Gods of War, the lieutenant colonel of the Sword Camp, Ethan Hunt!”Clap, clap, clap, clap!The crowd’s applause sounded like lightning striking the ground.‘Ethan Hunt is here!’‘His status in South Light is too high!’‘The Sword Camp

Joel Flynn carried the gift box with both hands and walked to Ethan Hunt’s side with a look of awe on his face, accompanied by the cheers of the crowd.Yonathan York then introduced the gift.“This is a gift for Lieutenant Colonel Ethan. It’s a limited-edition Patek Philippe antique sports watch.”“This watch has a history that spans a hundred years, and this is one of a kind. It’s truly priceless!”“For the Yorks, we feel only something like this could fit Lieutenant Colonel Ethan’s status!”“Please don’t misunderstand us, Lieutenant Colonel Ethan!”“Everyone who attends the banquet tonight will receive an expensive gift!”“These are the rules in South Light, and also rules for the Yorks. Even more so, it’s the main goal for this birthday banquet!”“This has nothing to do with anything else.”“Rest assured, people won’t spread word about you keeping this gift. Just treat it as a souvenir.”Naturally, the Yorks were paying their fullest respects for Ethan Hunt.Whether there
Chapter 706
For Yonathan York, the fact that his own blood-related son was noticed by a big shot like Ethan Hunt was definitely something to be celebrated.There might even be a possibility for his own son to take over his position as the family head in the future.But it was not good news at all for Quinton York on the other hand.In his eyes, Ethan Hunt was someone honorable who’s invited through Yonathan’s connections.And now that Ethan specifically mentioned Wayne York, so what could this possibly mean?However, those were just thoughts that just briefly flashed across Yonathan and Quinton’s minds, they felt more excited than ever at the present moment.Now that Ethan said something like that, no matter who he was going to support amongst the Yorks, it’s already certain that he’s showing support to the York family.The spectators down the stage wouldn’t care about the internal conflict within the York family.What they saw was just the Yorks showing off right that moment.Showing off

Not long after, with Yonathan and Quinton York at his side, Ethan Hunt reached the middle seat which was left vacant specifically for him.Yonathan spoke up with a smile, “Lieutenant Colonel Hunt! This seat is specifically reserved for you, no one apart from you in this whole room is worthy to sit here.”“Have a seat, Lieutenant Colonel Hunt!” The South Light’s second-in-command also made a gesture of welcoming him to sit down with all smiles on his face.For him, it was necessary to maintain a good relationship with Ethan Hunt.Hearing their words, however, Ethan remained silent and knitted his eyebrows together.He didn’t sit down right that instant nor moved an inch of muscle, he set his eyes on the seat before him with an unpredictable gaze.At that moment, everyone became a bit panicked.Especially the Yorks, who couldn’t really comprehend the situation before their eyes already.A big shot like him had to be treated with care, the same goes for the York family.Which was

Ethan Hunt chuckled. “The only one who deserves to sit here in this room is definitely not me…”“Is it someone else?”“Who is that person? Please enlighten us, Lieutenant Colonel Hunt!” Yonathan York asked.“Hmm, if that person doesn’t stand up himself, I wouldn’t dare to speak his name at all.”Ethan had a mysterious look on his face.“Moreover, he’s already in the room and I can see him!”“What?! There’s someone whose status is even higher than Lieutenant Colonel Hunt in this room?”“And the key point is someone who holds a position as high as Lieutenant Colonel Hunt doesn’t even dare to inform us who he is?”At that moment, the whole scene turned chaotic, even Grandma York who was in the private room couldn’t help but peeked out of the gaps between the windows.She also wanted to know what kind of big shot had arrived at Buckwood.It wouldn’t be someone important from Wolsing, would it?“Lieutenant Colonel Hunt, pardon for my rudeness but may I know what kind of title doe
Chapter 709
Not long after, rows after rows of people stood up automatically with the hope that the one man mentioned by Ethan Hunt was someone they knew.Even Rosalie Naiswell and Bruce Cloude were amongst them, they too stuck their heads and looked around, wanting to see who’s that person!The whole room of people became restless, especially the last few rows of people when Ethan marched past the middle rows.Harvey York was the only one looking indifferent, as steady as a mountain, and as motionless as a rock.Seeing this, Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t help but jest, “Brother-in-law, don’t tell me that the person Lieutenant Colonel Hunt was talking about is you.”Harvey said with a carefree tone, “Mhm, you’ve guessed it right.”But Xynthia simply chuckled, thinking that her own brother-in-law was actually messing with her.In a short while, the group of people reached the last few rows.Those people sitting in the last rows all became excited as they all stood up.The Yorks all seemed restle
