“You rude girl! You actually slapped me!”The two Country J men became enraged in an instant.They were already used to being arrogant in their own country. No one would dare fight back even if they harassed women. Not once in their life had they ever been slapped by a woman.Slap!In the next moment, one of them retaliated and sent a heavy slap right across Xynthia Zimmer’s face!“You dared to slap me! Do you have a death wish?”“We’re going to file a police report! You’ll have to compensate for our losses!”The other smashed the porcelain bowls into pieces on the floor.Then blamed it all on Xynthia.By now, the situation had worsened. The workers in the antique market came out.A middle-aged man in the lead frowned. “I’m the antique market’s manager, Wallace Shawn. If there’s anything, you can report to me.”Everyone immediately spoke up, “Manager! These men jumped in line and hit the young girl. They even smashed the product and blamed everything on her!”To everyone’
“You’re shameless!”Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t believe her ears. How could this man say such a thing in front of so many people?“It was obvious they harassed me first! I got angry, so I had to defend myself!”“Not only did they hit me and destroy the product, but you’re also asking me to pay it back? You even wanted me to accompany them for a drink! How unreasonable can you be?!”“Ho, ho! You admitted that you hit them first!”“I’ve already asked someone to save the video of you hitting them!”“If you don’t accept our way of mediating the situation, we’ll report everything to the police right away!”“Losing a million dollars is enough to get you jailed for a long time!” Wallace threatened intimidatingly.Xynthia was dumbfounded.Although she could be a bit savage at times, she was still a student. When had she ever faced a situation like this all by herself?She couldn’t believe that this man, Wallace Shawn, would act so harshly towards his own fellow citizens.Was it all ju
When Xynthia Zimmer recited the whole story to Harvey York, his face instantly darkened by a few shades.Before Harvey could speak, however, Wallace Shawn cut him with a sneer. “Yo, you’re calling your parents over now?”“I’m telling you! Don’t even think about ending this matter today like this!”“Tell those two Country J men to get their asses out of here!”Harvey spat coldly.“Your kid doesn’t know how to respect people and you don’t, too?”“They’re honourable guests from another country!” Wallace yelled furiously. “What are you trying to pull by calling them something like the Country J men?” Harvey replied coolly, “They could only be referred to as foreign guests if they visit here with kindness. I’m already giving them face by merely calling trash like them that.”“I’m giving you three seconds. Make them crawl out here and apologize!”“Are you insane?! You want our honourable guests to crawl over here and apologize? Do you have any idea where you are?”Wallace howled.
Harvey York casually pushed Wallace Shawn away. He then kicked open the door of the VIP lounge. His eyes fell on the two preening Country J men, and he said coldly, “Were you the ones who hit her and smashed the bowls? Not only that, you even asked Xynthia to accompany you drinking?”The two Country J men stood up abruptly at seeing Harvey.“Yeah, that’s us. So what? Does scum like you want payback?”These two Country J men did not speak fluent English, but they glared at Harvey with eyes that were full of disdain.Apparently, they felt superior.“Kneel and apologize.” Harvey ordered. “I can spare you only once.” “Apologize? Impossible!”“We are distinguished guests. How can we apologize to the inferior?”“But you, you can kneel and apologize to us instead!”These two Country J men were very arrogant. They certainly didn’t have Harvey and Xynthia in their sights at the moment.In their opinion, these two inferiors were not qualified to talk to them.“Where’s the security? W
Wallace Shawn felt a buzz in his mind. He was a little confused.Filled with disbelief, he could only make nonsensical “uh, uh, uh” sounds in his throat.He subconsciously looked at Harvey. It seemed that Harvey was the one who made the call a few moments ago.It turned out that his chairman really did come and fired him in less than five minutes.Just as Wallace finally came to a realization and wanted to protest, Shane Naiswell sent him a backhand slap in the face. “Go away! I don’t need to listen to any explanations! I’ve understood the matter thoroughly!”“Wait!”Harvey suddenly spoke.Wallace smiled joyfully. Could it be that this man felt that the punishment was too heavy and wanted to intercede for him?As soon as Wallace thought of this, he kept bowing and began to ramble on before Harvey could even speak. “Please, Sir! I beg you, have mercy! Much obliged, Sir!”Harvey ignored Wallace’s blubbering. Instead, he pointed at the two idiots who were still kneeling on the gr
“Young Master York, I apologize for what happened just now. Take the 1.5 million dollars as compensation for this young lady.” Shane Naiswell smiled, handing a check to Xynthia Zimmer.Xynthia glanced at Harvey, but did not reach out her hand.Harvey said indifferently, “Take it. You deserve it. If you refuse to take it, I’m afraid Master Naiswell won’t be able to sleep tonight.”Xynthia nodded and accepted the check.The staff who followed Shane were all dumbfounded.Who was this man?He treated and talked to Shane Naiswell as though Shane was just your average Joe.Most importantly, Shane did not refute the words he spoke.What was that supposed to mean?This was a clear indication that his status was certainly higher than Shane Naiswell.In front of him, Shane held a station equivalent to that of a younger brother!The staff had followed Shane for many years, and had seen the ways of the outside world.However, at the moment, they couldn’t recall if there was a young man
In the Zimmer family.Since Mandy Zimmer’s Silver Nimbus Mountain Resort project was flourishing, she now held sway among the Zimmers and they took her words seriously. Besides, the Silva family was no longer. Zack Zimmer could not find a new backer in such a short time. Thus, no one in the Zimmer family was giving Mandy any problems. Everything was in order.On this day, an invitation letter was sent to the Zimmer family by a man in a suit.In the Zimmer Villa, Senior Zimmer studied the contents of the invitation letter. He said excitedly, “Hurry! Hurry up, call Simon and his family here!”Soon, Simon Zimmer and his family came, including Harvey York.Senior Zimmer took out the invitation letter and said with a smile, “Simon, Lilian!”“Look at this! It’s an invitation from the Yates family, a first-class family in Buckwood!”“They’re inviting us Zimmers to their family’s birthday banquet!”Senior Zimmer’s gaze on Lilian Yates was a little different when he spoke.In the pas
Lilian Yates stood up at this moment. She pointed an angry finger at Zack Zimmer and exclaimed, “Stop stirring up trouble here. My sister already mentioned before that my family is allowed to join Grandma Yates’ birthday banquet!”“This invitation is clearly for us!”“Okay, okay. Stop arguing!” Senior Zimmer said indifferently.“Just look at the letterhead of the invitation card.”Then, he flipped open the invitation card with an excited look.A group of Zimmers subconsciously came over for a peek.“The Zimmer family” was written on the letterhead.Zack Zimmer laughed after seeing the three words. “See, Grandfather! What I said was right. The Yates family is surely coming after the Zimmer family, not after someone!”Senior Zimmer added with satisfaction, “Not bad. It’s exactly as Zack had said.”“The Yates family reserved ten seats for us at the birthday banquet. If it’s only for your family, then at most, they’ll just give you five seats.”In truth, Senior Zimmer did not kno
