Chapter 816
Originally, they wanted to use Mandy Zimmer’s identity to enter the ceremony.Yet as soon as they had gotten out of the car, someone handed them an invitation card?What was going on?Mandy looked at Harvey, perplexed. “You didn’t plan this, did you?”Harvey York frowned. He did not ask for anyone to hand them an invitation.But he simply shook his head and said, “It wasn’t me. Besides, we wouldn’t need one to enter anyway.”Simon and Lilian looked at Harvey with exhilaration before, but at what he said, they exhaled sharply. ‘Of course!’‘Just say that it wasn’t you and stop spouting nonsense!’“Heh, of course it wasn’t this filth.”A burst of laughter echoed at that moment.A chubby man with big ears got out of a Mercedes Benz and walked towards the family.Seeing him, Mandy frowned instantly. He wasn’t just anyone. He was the man that Felix Howard introduced to her before, Stanley Robbins from the Robbins family.“This is…”Lilian Yates’ eyes lit up after knowing th

“From today onward, your family’s problems are my family’s problems!”“The Robbins family may be just a first-rated family, but even the top rated families would have to think twice before crossing us!”“Now, let us attend this grand ceremony!”“But…there’s only three spots in the invitation. I’m afraid the beggar might not have the right to be inside.”Stanley pointed at Harvey York, then hugged his own arms as if he had won a battle.Lilian said coldly, “He’s just some filth. He acted on his own, signing the paper and dragging the whole family down with him!”“We should let people like him rot all by himself! No need to bat him an eye!”“Mandy! Let’s go, we should head inside!”Simon and Lilian looked like they were ready to ditch Harvey.The sight made Mandy frown even more deeply. “Father, mother. You can go if you want to. I’m not going, I’m staying with Harvey.”Stanley then smiled and said, “Mrs. Zimmer, I know that you have the heart of a saint. You won’t leave that

Some moments later, Mandy murmured in a disappointed tone, “Let’s just go home.”She didn’t expect Harvey would still talk big after things had gotten to this point. He wasn’t grounded to reality at all.Initially Mandy pitied him, but now she only felt disappointment. How was it that her live-in husband was incapable of anything except boasting?Harvey, however, looked at the Silver Nimbus Outer Courtyard behind him and said, “We can’t leave yet. Mom and dad will need us later.”Mandy cupped her face and let out a huge sigh.“Harvey…where did you get all your confidence from?”“What are you planning now? Are you going to ask for help from Ms. Xavier again?”“You do realize you can't ask her for favors all the time, right?”“And have you ever thought about me when you go looking for another woman the moment you get into trouble?”“Don’t you think I’ll be ashamed?”“Oh, whatever! Fine, let’s wait here since you said that Father and Mother would be in trouble soon.”On the o

If Mandy would just compare Stanley to Harvey, she could easily come to a decision.Simon then said, “Actually, we’ve been thinking of kicking Harvey out of our family!”“It’s been three whole years since they’re married. Their marriage has always lacked substance!”“For a long time, all sorts of mishaps stopped them from divorcing! It’s such a shame.”“But this time, I won’t let it go that easily!”Stanley was at ease after hearing this.His reasons for wanting to marry Mandy wasn’t just because of her good looks. He also wanted to be acquainted with the Yateses.It was true that in terms of power, the Yates family might be the weakest out of Buckwood’s five first-rated families.However, the fact remained that they were a family of government officials.For Stanley, his rank in the eyes of the other Robbins would surely rise if he could become a grandson-in-law of the Yates family.This was the prime reason behind his determination. As the three were busy laughing and gos

The three were completely surrounded.One of the guards placed a hand on the hilt of the sword hanging on his waist, as if he was facing an enemy.“Since you dare fake an invitation, I will assume you have ulterior motives. You’ll be sent to the authorities later!”Feeling the murderous intent emanating from the guards, Stanley and the others could barely control their bowels. It looked as though these men were close to unsheathing their blades.Stanley, who was born with a silver spoon, had never faced a scenario like this.He immediately gave in.“It’s my fault, it’s my fault! We’ll leave immediately!”The guard could only laugh humorlessly.“Leave? This is the site of Prince York’s engagement ceremony! Obviously, the security here is of the highest level!”“You handed over a fake invitation and caused a huge ruckus. Now you’re trying to escape? I have to question your actual goal!”“Let me be frank. All of us here are soldiers from the Sword Camp. Lieutenant Colonel Ethan

Lilian Yates pointed wordlessly at Stanley, unable to say anything.Simon was hyperventilating, all too clear about the severity of the situation.Anyone who dared to use a fake invitation at a ceremony hosted by Prince York was seeking death!“Enough, stop fighting!”The staff were scowling.“If you can’t tell us where you got the fake invitation, then we’ll put you behind bars!”“I… I… I…!”Lilian was unable to muster a coherent reply.Simon looked as if he ate a bitter gourd.Never in their wildest dreams did they anticipate something like this would happen. They hadn’t prepared any excuses to get out of this mess.They had no clue how to explain their situation.The staff member was already quite impatient. Everything that happened at the Head Coach’s ceremony was his responsibility, after all!He wanted to deal with the problems as swiftly as possible. At this moment, a thought crossed over Stanley’s mind. He glanced at Simon and Lilian. “Uncle, Aunty. I know both

Mandy was delighted. She never expected her parents could actually be fair and reasonable. They actually helped Harvey get another spot for the ceremony!Soon, the two arrived at the entrance.Harvey wore a faint smile.On the other hand, Mandy could not hide the happiness between her eyebrows.For her, having her parents accepting Harvey, even for just a tiny bit, was a cause for joy.When Harvey and Mandy arrived, Simon and Lilian breathed huge sighs of relief. They were afraid that the filth would never come. If that happened, they wouldn't know who they could pin the blame on.Simon glanced at Stanley.He then pointed at Harvey and yelled, “He’s the one who made that fake invitation! Take him and put him in jail!”Mandy heard her father and froze instantly.She quickly understood everything.Stanley’s so-called invitation was fabricated, and the guards had quickly found out.Simon called Harvey over to trick him into taking the blame.Mandy’s head turned as heavy as a

All of the staff there automatically saluted. After that, they put their hands down and chorused respectfully, “Mr. York, Mrs. Zimmer. We apologize for startling both of you because of this sudden problem!”“Please, come in.”Harvey nodded, then glanced at Simon and Lilian.“Those two are my uncle and aunt. Let them in as well.”The guard nodded and waved. The rest of the staff who surrounded Simon and Lilian immediately backed off.The guard then said to the two, “It was a misunderstanding before. I’m terribly sorry.”“Please, come in!”‘What?!’The jaws of the watching crowd fell as their mouths opened wide. They were unable to close their mouths.The whole scene felt like a dream.Stanley had to give himself a slap across his face to ensure that he was not hallucinating.The sight in front of him was truly astonishing.The staff members were soldiers of the Sword Camp, after all!They were the Kings of Arms with hundreds of victories under their belts. Everyone’s eyes w
