“Sir Yoel, I don’t care whether their invitations are real or otherwise, or whatever their status may be. Since they dared to hit me, they owe me an explanation!”Luke Surrey exclaimed furiously.Yoel narrowed his eyes at Luke and replied indifferently, “Prince Surrey, I’m afraid you still don’t know who is standing in front of you.”“I’m telling you. He’s a noble person who even I, Yoel Graham, have to respect!”“I know what happened. You started the whole mess. You deserve to be hit!”“I urge you to kneel right this instant now apologize to Mr. York. Otherwise, you’ll regret it!”So saying, Yoel nodded respectfully at Harvey’s direction and went to greet Harvey. The sight stunned every single person in the hall.Even Yoel Graham respected Harvey so much. Who was this young man?“Yoel Graham! What do you mean?!”“You think you can run trample all over the Surreys just because you’re the first-in-command of Buckwood?”“Let me warn you! It’s only a matter of a few words from
At the scholarly gathering.Yoel Graham hung up his phone. He looked at Luke Surrey and said indifferently, “Your family head should be here soon. I hope you’ll be as stubborn as you are now later.”Luke sneered.Not only the Surrey family was a first-class family in Buckwood, but they were also allied with the other three first-class families.Who wouldn’t be afraid of such a powerful family?He would wait until the family head arrives. Then, he’d make Harvey kneel and crawl. Plus, he’d make sure that today was the last day Yoel remained the first-in-command in Buckwood!The guests watched this scene as they exchanged curious glances.The chief of the Surrey family, James Surrey, was also coming here because of such a trivial matter.It seemed that today’s event was destined to pierce the sky!After Yoel finished handling the matter, he walked to Harvey, leaned forward, and said, “Mr. York, I’m sorry I’m late. If I arrived a few minutes earlier, then all these wouldn't have h
“Head! He’s the man who hit me. He even wants me to kneel and apologize to him!”“Yoel Graham is on his side, too!”“This is defiance!”“We must kill them all and make them regret they were born into this world!”The moment Luke saw James walk in, he rushed forward and started to shout his dissatisfaction.He was James’s most beloved grandson. If not, how could he have been crowned as the Prince of the Surreys?In the past, James would certainly help Luke punish anyone, so long as Luke wished it.James gazed deeply at Harvey, who was calm. He inhaled deeply, and then slapped Luke in the face. He yelled, “You fool! I teach you to be humble every day, yet you’re always making trouble outside!”“Do you want the Surreys to get into big trouble?”Luke never expected James would slap him the moment James arrived.Luke wasn’t the only one. Others didn’t anticipate this, either.It was important to understand that the Surreys did real estate business and worked in the education indu
“Your Prince Surrey has repeatedly provoked me and inconvenienced me. Do you think I’m easy to step on?”Harvey said indifferently, studying James Surrey, who stood in front of him.James Surrey took in another deep breath. He had figured out where Harvey came from. Although he was somewhat scared of Harvey, it was only a tiny amount of fear.James replied solemnly, “Mr. York, I know who you are and who is behind you.”“The Surreys didn’t mean to offend the person behind you, so we apologize for what happened today.”“But please, don’t push your luck.”Luke Surrey held his cheek and snarled, “Sir! What status could this trash possibly have? Isn’t he just a live-in son-in-law? Why do we, the Surreys, need to be afraid of him?”“Why should the Surrey family apologize? Even if you can accept such humiliation, our family couldn’t afford it!”“Shut up!” James glared at Luke. He was trying his best to resolve today’s problems, but Luke was actually trying to intervene.He thought fo
“What do you mean?”Harvey asked nonchalantly.Yoel Graham whispered, “That child, Luke, doesn’t have much ability, but he’s still able to become the prince of the Surrey family. The biggest reason for that is that he has a good godfather.”“Who?”“The king of streets in South Light, John Gotti.” Yoel said in a deep voice, a solemn expression on his face.John’s status was too high. He was a tough character in the streets of South Light.Yoel may be the first-in-command in Buckwood, but even he couldn’t afford to provoke John Gotti.Harvey laughed. “Are you saying Luke will ask John Gotti to come after me?”“Probably so.” Yoel looked somber. “I know you’re strong and powerful. But the Surrey family is rich and John has his men. If they combined forces, the impact would be great.”“Still, please be careful, Mr. York.”Harvey turned his head and studied at Yoel carefully. He then said indifferently, “Are you hoping for a huge conflict between Luke and me? That both sides would
“Just how old are you? Are you planning to find a college or university for further studies?” Mandy was happy to see that Harvey was motivated.If her husband really intended to study, she would be willing to pay for him to study abroad.But Harvey shook his head solemnly and said, “It’s not for me, but Xynthia.”“Isn’t she in her third year of high school? She’s going to university soon.”“I found that the universities in Buckwood aren’t that good. I’m afraid Xynthia has to go to Wolsing, Mordu, or maybe San Francisco for university.”Mandy laughed and said, “Harvey, you can just let Father and Mother handle it. You’re just her brother-in-law. You don’t have to worry so much.”Harvey rubbed his temples. He couldn’t tell Mandy that he had seen through the true colors of those in Buckwood’s education community at the scholarly gathering tonight.“Seems like I have to push forward the trip to San Francisco. I’ll help Xynthia go and see the universities there.”Harvey murmured.H
After deciding to go to San Francisco and helping Xynthia to look for a good university, Harvey asked Yvonne to make preliminary arrangements for the affairs to come.For instance, the branch company in San Francisco needed a capable local person to be responsible for independent operations.Mandy was very surprised after Harvey told him about going to San Francisco. “Are you really going there to help Xynthia to search for a good university? How long are you staying there?”“Three or five days at most.” Harvey thought about it in his heart.If it turned out well, he could settle the affairs in the branch in one to two days. Then, he could visit the University of San Francisco.In truth, deep in Harvey’s heart, he hoped Mandy would go with him.It was a pity that Mandy had been too busy recently. How would she have time to go with him?Mandy thought for a while and said, “If you want to go, you can go. But since you’re going there, please do something for me.”“What is it?” Har
At Hong Kong International Airport.Quinton and Queenie York were walking together side by side. Even in a world-class international metropolis like this, the sight of both of them together was still extremely striking.At the VIP boarding port, Quinton stopped and coldly said, “I’ve already arranged everything in San Francisco. You only need to sit still when you get there. No need to do anything unnecessary.”Queenie sent him a smile that could topple buildings.“Are you scared?”Quinton did not reply, but the instant he turned around, a sinister flash appeared in his gaze.Queenie tilted her head slightly at seeing his back. She sighed and asked, “Are these little tricks really useful?”“If you fail again, I don’t think even Grandma York would let you off the hook.”…At San Francisco Airport.Harvey York was already quite bored of waiting when Queenie had boarded her plane.About half an hour later, Halsey Lowe showed up.Her height was around 5.5 feet tall. She had wel
