Chapter 854
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.
Chapter 855
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
Chapter 856
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
Chapter 857
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
Chapter 859
Mandy stayed around the construction site for the whole afternoon. After that, she went to the city and made her way to the hotel where she and the suppliers promised to meet.Reaching there, she saw that the private room was empty. Mandy guessed that they were putting on an act, for reasons she couldn’t know. She said nothing and instead ordered a pot of tea, and waited quietly in the room.For four hours she waited, from noon until evening. Only by then did suppliers arrive. They came in as a group, referring to each other as brothers as they entered.“CEO Mandy, please excuse us for being a little late.”“These days, we’ve been very busy with our work. You too know that after the market price of raw materials rose, more people came to us for business. That’s why we’re not that free!”“Yes! We have so little products, but so many companies demanded this and that from us! We don’t even know to whom we should distribute our products anymore. What a hassle!”The moment they appe

“Ha ha ha! Are you going to file a lawsuit against us, CEO Zimmer?”“I’m going to give you a piece of advice. Sure, employing a lawyer doesn’t cost a lot.”“Still, civil disputes like this prioritize mediation. It’s rare for the case to be concluded quickly.”“If we want, we can delay this case for as long as eight to ten years. While we don’t really care, can your company afford it?”Barry Waters was incredibly satisfied with himself.Obviously, he had thought of everything before arriving. His presence right now was solely to crush Mandy.The other suppliers sneered and nodded along. After all, they’d all be sharing mutual benefits.Of course they’d take this opportunity to make a huge profit as a group! No one was dumb enough to resist cold, hard cash! Mandy inhaled deeply and replied, “Mr. Barry, when we Zimmers were looking for suppliers, you were the one who came to our doorstep and told us your factory was going bankrupt.”“You were the one who pleaded to offer us the

At his words, Mandy’s face grew cold. She was here to talk about collaboration. How could she accept this humiliation?“Mr Waters, our company is honest and sincere in dealing with people. Please show us more respect. Collaboration is good for both of us. It won’t be good for us to dismiss that chance, no?”“I’ll let it slide this time. Next time you insult me, you’ll get a letter from my lawyer!”“Letter? Insult?” Barry Waters grinned and sneered coldly. “CEO Zimmer, do you really think you’re a decent woman?”“I’m telling you. The matter today isn’t over yet.”“Do you think we can’t survive if we don’t collaborate with your company? Let me tell you, many other companies are eager to collaborate with us!”“Even our raw materials aren’t enough for all of them!”“Waters.” Mandy hissed icily. “Aren’t you grateful for the assistance I gave you that day?!” Barry chuckled and folded his arms.“Why, CEO Zimmer, please forget the past. We’re both businessmen. All I care about is the
