“Rest assured, Sir Ray. I only need three days to be done with preliminary preparations.” Halsey said with a serious tone.She heard Ray say that Prince York would supervise her project.She was happy and excited.Maybe she could finally see Prince York!“Hmph! Harvey, you said yourself that Prince York doesn’t look up to me, and that he already has a woman he likes!”“But he must really like me if he’s willing to supervise me!”Halsey then asked with a hint of curiosity, “Sir Ray, when will the Prince come over to San Francisco? Can I meet him?”Ray chuckled.“What’s the rush? He’s quite busy these past few days, but he’ll surely reward you himself if you handle this project well.”“When that happens, there won’t be a need to arrange any meetings.”Halsey gave herself a silent encouragement after hearing Ray’s words.‘Oh, Halsey! This is the chance to get the man of your dreams!’Halsey was hands-on with site selection and project establishment.The higher-ups in the comp

Queenie York chuckled lightly. She really liked Sam Baker’s attitude. He understood his gains and losses full well.People like this were usually capable and ambitious.And she liked using people like him the most.“I’m sure that you’ve heard of Sky Corporation, yes?” Queenie retracted her finger, smiling gently.Sam still didn’t dare to open her eyes. He said attentively, “I’ve heard of it. Their branch in San Francisco is planning to reintegrate assets in Gangnam, and they wanted to build a brand new shopping mall in the heart of San Francisco.”Queenie then replied, “I hope that their shopping mall will never be built, forever.”“Of course!”Sam Baker did not question her any further. His head was still bowed to the ground.Some time later, when the footsteps grew further away, he opened his eyes slowly. A dark expression was on his face.“A storm is coming to San Francisco, but this might be an opportunity for the Bakers. Sky Corporation…interesting.”Sam Baker muttered

Harvey did not care for Jimmy, and immediately started to flip through the pages of the contract.Slap!Jimmy’s lackeys walked up and slapped Harvey’s contract to the ground. They shouted fiercely, “Are you signing or not? If you don’t, you won’t be getting out of these doors alive!”Harvey chuckled.“Are you trying to force a buy here?”Jimmy smoked his cigar and calmly replied, “Brother, you can’t be spouting out nonsense whenever you want. I’m a real businessman. How could I force a deal on you? I just don’t really like playing around too much.”“Sign the contract already while I’m still in a good mood.”Harvey did not care about Jimmy.Ray picked up the contract and went through it swiftly. His expression immediately changed and he quietly whispered, “Sir York, this contract isn’t right.”“The price that we agreed on was seven hundred and fifty million dollars, but there was another zero added to this contract, it’s seven billion and five hundred million dollars now.”The

Jimmy replied innocently, “Everyone, this isn’t about me acknowledging the payment or not. I don’t even know what’s going on here!”“I didn’t even talk to you all about this yesterday, nor did I take your money!”“Why don’t you go find the man that took your so-called deposit instead?”The crowd was shocked after hearing this. Subconsciously, they turned to look behind Jimmy.The few people that they talked with weren’t there.The higher ups all looked at each other. Wendy Sorrell then put the receipts the day before on the table and exclaimed coldly, “CEO John, the receipt has your company’s signature and seal.”Jimmy clapped his forehead and said, “I remember now, there’s a bunch of scammers that showed up in San Francisco not too long ago.”“The seal looks exactly like ours, but it’s actually fake. I’m not the one who got your money.”“Should we help you report the incident to the authorities to look for them?”Jimmy seemed like he was being generous.Yet at his words, eve

“Scram!”“If you don’t, I’ll tear off your arms and legs!”“And you... You look pretty good, do you want to play with me and my boys here?”The fighters all looked extremely fierce.The higher ups from Sky Corporation showed horrible faces.They would usually go in and out of high-end venues, only meeting with decent people.It was their first time being in such a raggedy place like this, they were slightly affected by it.However, Harvey and Ray were indifferent about the situation.Harvey calmly said, “Jimmy John, last chance. Give us back the money.”Jimmy coldly chuckled.“You're still not leaving yet? You bastard. Do you really want your legs crippled before you do?”“Fine. Cripple this kid for me!”At that moment, a few fighters rushed toward Harvey. Ray, who was standing beside him, stepped out and kicked Jimmy in the chest.The next moment, Ray grabbed Jimmy’s hair and slammed him on the table. Ray then grabbed a pen nearby and fiercely stabbed Jimmy.Pffft!The

Harvey York slapped Jimmy’s head, then rubbed his hand against Jimmy’s body. He was filled with disdain.“Let me ask you, who was the one who made you change the price of this land and take my hundred and fifty million dollars?”Jimmy was gasping in pain, but he still grinded on his teeth and replied, “Nobody! It’s my own doing! It doesn’t involve anyone else!”“Actually, I already did this a few times before. I didn’t realize that I’d meet terrifying people like you this time around!”Harvey laughed, and then glanced at Wendy Sorrell.“You should go outside for now. What happens next is not suitable for children.”The higher ups all lost color in their faces. They all sprinted out of the room swiftly after hearing what Harvey said.When they left, Harvey chuckled and asked, “Ray, you didn’t forget about the things that I taught you on the battlefield before, right? Today’s the first test.”“Alright.”Ray was smiling. He rubbed Jimmy’s head, and gave a smile that would be cons

Looking at the smirk on Harvey York’s face, Jimmy John shivered right away.Although he had thirty-plus people on his side, he had a gut feeling.That if he didn’t know what’s the right thing to do at this moment, the other two men could crush this group of people down quickly.Till then, not only would he lose the 7.6 million, he wouldn’t be able to get even one dollar.In the end, Jimmy could only sign the agreement with his shivery hand, then transferred the 7.6 million back to the Sky Corporation right in front of everyone.***At the San Francisco branch office.Halsey Lowe got to know what happened and her admiration for her own CEO grew more.Initially, she thought to buy this piece of land would have to cost at least seventy million dollars. She was even mentally prepared that they would set a skyrocketing price.But she didn’t expect that 7.6 million dollars would be able to solve the issue with the land already, plus they were very cooperative that they completed the

The Bakers really held power in San Francisco.Right in front of Queenie York, by simply making a call, San Francisco’s Construction Company’s CEO already promised Sam Baker that he would sign the agreement and take the deposit. Still, he definitely wouldn’t commence the project. For sure, he wouldn’t start working till it’s delayed for eight or ten years.And by delaying for eight or ten years, then Sky Corporation’s layout in San Francisco and the whole of Gangnam would end unsuccessfully.After all, based on Halsey Lowe and Harvey York’s line of thinking, it’s best to complete the construction of the commercial center in half a year and finish all the preparation of integrating resources and spreading of branch offices.And Sam’s strategy would be as if destroying Harvey and Halsey’s original plan right away.“Miss, I wish to use the Bakers’ influence to issue a ban amongst the whole of Gangnam’s construction industry. That is, everyone is prohibited from cooperating with Sky C
