Harvey York smiled faintly. He was indifferent about Quinn Zimmer’s hatred toward him.Quinn Zimmer’s confidence came from her mediocre looks.A shame that she was only a little good-looking. Her beauty could not be compared to Mandy’s, which would topple buildings.For wealthy people, a woman like Quinn Zimmer would at most be a toy for them.She could only dream of marrying into a wealthy family at most.***In Hong Kong, the sea breeze from Victoria Harbor blew toward Taiping Mountaintop.The mountain that only wealthy people could stay in did not have any winds blowing over for many years.The top villa in the Taiping Mountaintop was considered the peak of the mountain itself.The villa was able to overlook Hong Kong’s entirety as if it had control over the families that reside within.In reality, the Leo family did have the right to do so.As one of the top four families in Hong Kong, the Leo family’s power would be far beyond an ordinary man’s imagination!The people
“All hail the matriarch!”Along with the sounds of cheering, the Leo family’s transfer of power was successful!Melissa Leo had planned this for ten whole. She had the force akin to a rolling thunder when she returned to reclaim the Leo family’s authority.***At the top villa of Taiping Mountaintop.Quinton York looked at his left palm, the freckles on his palm seemed like they changed.He instinctively put down his palm when Melissa Leo walked up behind him.“Having ambition is not a bad thing, but with only ambition and no planning—no method of achieving a decisive victory—that ambition will only burn you in the long run,” Melissa Leo looked at Victoria Harbor from afar as she spoke eloquently.Quinton York was showing a hint of perplexity, then bowed soon after.“Everything that I have right now was given to me by you. I would never dare to mention ambition in front of you.”Melissa Leo smiled and calmly replied, “In your eyes, do you think that today’s efforts were succe
At Buckwood.The next day, Senior Zimmer, Zack Zimmer, and Quinn Zimmer all showed up at The Gardens Residence.All of them were holding property deeds, large amounts of jewelry, and lots of cash, among other possessions.Those things were about to be handed over to Mandy Zimmer.Just by looking at the sight filled Quinn with hatred.All of this should be hers, but all of it would be Mandy’s soon.She was resentful!On the other hand, Zack said sternly, “Grandfather, we sold off all property we had—but it was still not sufficient.”Selling off cars and houses within a short time was only possible to be sold at low prices.It was still not enough to gather the amount that they spent even with their savings and possessions.Senior Zimmer looked like he had grown ten years older.He let out a sigh.“We still have to come here. We can only hope that Mandy helps us fabricate the truth for the sake of us being family before.“If not, I’m afraid we won’t even have the capacity to
On the rooftop of Gardens Residence.Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates were already anxiously waiting in the hall.It was as if the gifts actually belonged to them.Soon after the doorbell rang, Lilian did not even lounge around and immediately rushed toward the door.Just as if the gifts would suddenly fly away if she went any slower.“Simon, Lilian…”Senior Zimmer crossed his arms and came in the door warm-heartedly.He had been a part of the Zimmers for most of his life. After all, Simon and Lilian were subconsciously scared of him because of it.They both stopped their movements when they saw his figure.“Simon, where’s Mandy?” Senior Zimmer asked calmly after seeing the two froze over.Lilian came back to her senses after hearing his question. Her gaze then shifted toward the items that were in Quinn Zimmer and Zack Zimmer’s hands. Her eyes lit up soon after.“Mandy went to the office. You can just hand me the things.”Lilian did not even give the others time to speak up.
Zack Zimmer’s face had lost all color after hearing what Harvey York said.On the other hand, Senior Zimmer’s face had turned as dark as night.They all knew that Mandy Zimmer was extremely generous. She always had a sharp tongue with a kind heart.Pleading in front of her would usually work more or less to their advantage.But Harvey was in charge of the situation in her place that day. What are they going to do?“Lilian, is your house letting a live-in son-in-law be in charge now?”Senior Zimmer cleared out his throat.Naturally, he wanted to provoke the relationship between Lilian Yates and Harvey York. That way, they could take advantage of the situation.Lilian did not have the mood to scold Harvey even at that moment. She thoroughly checked the jewelry once, then looked at the money present. Her expressions then changed.“Patriarch Zimmer, this isn’t the right amount now, is it?“Compared to the gift list that Sir Ray provided us, excluding the villa, you’re missing at
Harvey spoke up calmly, “Mom, listen to the rest of my words first.”At his words, Lilian calmed herself slightly. “Fine. If you don’t have a good reason, I won’t let you rest easy!”Senior Zimmer, Zack, and Quinn exchanged brief glances and saw the anxiety in each other’s eyes.All of them assumed that Harvey was plotting something in secret. Harvey continued, “From what I know, there’s still some of you who haven’t sold off your properties yet.”“That’s bullshit!” Zack was the first to argue, but in truth he had yet to sell one of the houses in his possession. Quinn’s expression changed as well. She had hidden some jewelleries for herself in secret.The Zimmers were too used to their selfishness. How would it be possible for them to give up their valuables for the sake of the whole family?For them to hand over a portion of their possessions was already good enough!Only Senior Zimmer still had his eyebrows knitted together. He knew Harvey wouldn’t be so kind.“Listen to
Even though the Zimmers were leaving, it was obvious that Zack refused to see Mandy and Harvey live well. He wanted to drive a wedge between the two of them.Harvey couldn’t be bothered, and simply shrugged in response. “Casting a stone between us is no use. If you really hate me that much, then I earnestly wait for the day you can return to take revenge upon me.”Zack clenched his teeth hard, trying to appear dignified. Ultimately, he failed and ended up grabbing all the money on the floor before scampering away under Harvey’s aloof gaze. …After returning to Zimmer Mansion, Senior Zimmer stared blankly at the now empty mansion.After this day, he would have to leave this place. Right now, the Zimmer family could only be described as monkeys that were scattered when their tree fell.Zack put away the money he had picked up carefully before throwing a meaningful gaze at Senior Zimmer, preparing to leave.Quinn was the same.All of a sudden, Senior Zimmer barked out, “Don’t le
At the Silver Nimbus Resort project construction site.Staring at the construction site before her, Mandy was all worried and gloomy.There were no other problems plaguing the resort project’s construction site. Plus, with Old Niner and his people on watch, no thug would dare come and destroy the site.Unfortunately, the project had to be stopped temporarily as an issue with the supply of raw materials had arisen out of the blue.Mandy called her secretary, her eyebrows knitted together in frustration as she spoke. “Cash out thirty thousand dollars from the finance department and distribute a hundred and fifty dollars for every worker as reward. Have them rest for a few days and wait for my announcement to return to work.”The secretary nodded, but she still asked in worry, “CEO Mandy, it’s almost winter now.”“Winter is South Light brings the cold north wind. wThe worker’s efficiency will be reduced.”“If we can’t finish constructing the whole framework before autumn ends, I’m
