Chapter 1
Villa Zimmer is located in Niumhi. There was light in the villa.
That night was Grandpa Zimmer's birthday party, and it was filled with many guests.
All his children and grandchildren give gifts and say “We pray that Grandpa Zimmer is always blessed, long life, and healthy always.”
Grandpa Zimmer blushed in his chair. He replied, “Good. To my very obedient son and grandson. I'm so happy today, so, I'll grant you one wish! Tell me what you want.”
“Grandfather, I want an apartment near the beach. It's not expensive and it's just a million dollars less.”.
“Grandfather, I want a Chanel bag that is limited edition..”.
“Grandfather, I want a BMW sports car..”.
“Grandfather, I want a Rolex watch..”
“...”
“Good. I will grant all your requests!” Grandpa Zimmer's Promise. Seeing the expressions on their faces, Grandpa Zimmer was also very happy. He feels grateful and satisfied.
At that time, his son-in-law—Harvey Rock, suddenly came forward and said, “Grandfather, would you buy me a scooter to make it easier for me to buy vegetables.”.
Suddenly, all the members of the Zimmer family who were in the room were shocked. Almost everyone was stunned to see Harvey.
Is this son-in-law crazy? Whatdoes thatmean? How could a daughter-in-law, not a member of the Zimmer family ask for anything?
And again, he didn't even prepare a gift for Grandpa Zimmer at the party. How could he not be shameless asking for something from Grandpa Zimmer? He even asked for a scooter. Did he deliberately want to humiliate Grandpa Zimmer?
Three years ago, they didn't know where Grandma Zimmer met a man named Harvey. He forced his eldest grandson to marry Harvey. At that time, Harvey was very poor and not much different from homeless people.
On the day of her wedding, Grandma Zimmer passed away. Since then, all members of the Zimmer nuclear family have been humbling him. The last three years, Harvey's been working odd jobs for the Zimmer family. He had to prepare water to wash their feet, and he cooked for the family.
Now, he's voicing his plea for scooters. Of course it is an impossible request.
The scooter in the house had been stolen by someone when Harvey went to buy vegetables the previous day. He was very poor and had no money. So, he could only join in voicing his request at this moment.
When Grandpa Zimmer is happy, Harvey suspects his request will be granted.
Grandfather Zimmer who looked happy before instantly turned grim.
Grandpa threw the glass in his hand and it all fell apart on the floor. Then snapped furiously, “You came to my party to celebrate my birthday?! Or just to destroy the atmosphere in front of the family?!”
Harvey's wife, Mandy Zimmer, walked up to his grandfather and explained, “Grandfather, Harvey Khilaf. Today is your happy day. Don't be mad at him.”
Then he separated Harvey to the side.
Right then and there, Mandy's cousin Quinn Zimmer sneered, “Mandy, look at your useless husband! What are we doing? It's our grandfather's seventyth birthday party. He came empty-handed. How dare he ask for something from Grandpa? Since when did he become this sassy?”
“Really! He has no customs. Could he ask for something? Didn't he see so many guests coming today? So embarrassing!” that is the statement from Grandpa Zimmer—Zack Zimmer's favorite grandson. She always hated Mandy. Now he had a chance to insult her.
“Basic is useless! What right does he have to stay in our family?!”
“Yes! He embarrassed us!”
“I know now. He is meant to disturb us! He wants to destroy grandpa's happy mood today!”
“People are useless! There are many servants in this house. Do we really need you to go buy vegetables?”
“You don't even have to work hard for it. Shameless! You think you're important in this family?”
“Go now! Or I'll beat you up if you still embarrass us!”
“...”
Hearing the insults and accusations from members of the Zimmer family, Harvey could only bow.
Three years ago, Harvey could have died badly if Grandma Zimmer hadn't helped him. That's also the reason for Harvey's silence and wanting to do household chores for three years.
“Grandfather, York Enterprise— managerDon Xander has arrived to congratulate you!” Someone told me at the door.
Then, a tall and handsome man entered the room with a smile.
York Enterprise is a York family-owned business in South Light, they are an influential and illustrious family.
In addition, Don is one of the project managers working at York Enterprise. He was born into an established family, and had an important, valuable share in the company. Many families in Niumhi wanted to be close to him, but, they did not have the right opportunity. It's impressive that he came to congratulate Grandpa Zimmer on his birthday.
“Kakek Zimmer, this gift is for you!” don said and smiled.
When the grandfather opened the gift from him, people were amazed.
There was a check of eight hundred and eighty thousand dollars.
In Niumhi, the amount is commonly used for marriage proposals.
“Grandfather Zimmer, I came today to propose. I have admired Mandy for a long time. I hope she can accept my proposal and marry me!”
Everyone is amazed.
At that moment, everyone was shocked
Mandy is Harvey's wife. Why doesn't Don care about that? He doesn't appreciate Harvey at all.
But, if weighted, Harvey is just a useless adopted son-in-law. Why should Don respect him? Don't even fear if it offends Harvey.
“I know that my invitation was too sudden, but, I can no longer see Mandy living with a useless man. Grandpa Zimmer, I hope you can consider my offer well.” Don said and smiled. Then he turned around and looked at Mandy, smiled and passed.
Soon after, Don takes a quick look at Harvey. He did not consider it to exist at all.
After Don left, everyone immediately had a heated discussion.
“Mr Xander is the department manager at York Enterprise. He has a big department. I've heard that the decision he made was very decisive for the fate of a small company, making it destroyed or successful!”
“If they get married, our family will also benefit greatly from it.”
Mandy's sister Xynthia Zimmer suddenly came forward and said, “Harvey, don't you want a scooter? If you agree to divorce my brother, tomorrow I'll buy you a scooter! How?”
“Good! Xynthia idea is very good!”
“Didn't this useless guy want a scooter? We'll give it to him! Make her agree to divorce!”
Grandpa Zimmer looked at Harvey expectantly, “Harvey, if you want to divorce Mandy, I make sure you don't just get a scooter, more than that, what about a million dollars?”
At first, Harvey just looked down. But at this moment, he looked at Mandy who was beside him, shook his head and said, “Grandfather, I will never divorce Mandy.”
Grandfather Zimmer's face turned furious. He pointed at Harvey and threw him out in a fit of rage, “How dare you reject a good offer from me! Go you! Go right now! I don't want any pathetic people at my birthday party!”
Harvey's surprised. He was so shocked to see Grandpa Zimmer being so evil, underestimating his feelings. Back then, he simply shook his head in surprise and left.
“Harvey...” Mandy hesitate. He's confused whether he should go after Harvey or not.
Seeing that doubt, the grandfather said coldly, “Mandy, if you go with him now, I will banish you from this family, I will not consider you my grandson again!”
Mandy stopped chasing. She did not expect her grandfather would act that cruel to her.
Harvey then said, “Stay, don't mind me.”
Before Mandy spoke, Harvey turned around and left.
Zack laughed out loud. “My darling, what do you want to go home with? Don't tell me you want to go home on foot. Come here, I got a dollar. Let me be kind and give it to you so you can pay the bus fare. Don't be shy, take it!”
Then he took out a dollar bill and threw it at Harvey.
The entire Zimmer family laughed insults at him.
Harvey gnashed his teeth, but he only fell silent, after which he completely left Villa Zimmer.
At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
He pulled out his old phone and looked at the screen. The number that calls it ends in a six-digit eight.
Harvey blinked and looked at the message.
“Pak, York Enterprise is in trouble. Please go home to handle it.”
Chapter 2
”There's a message from the York Family.” Harvey was sad for a moment.
The York family was very influential in South Light. Initially, Harvey had been the official successor.
But three years ago, his family accused him of embezzling the company's funds. Therefore, his identity as successor was abolished.
The entire York family agrees and Harvey has been removed from the family as soon as possible.
When she left the York family three years ago, she had no money at all. The slap was very traumatizing, and she was seriously ill at the time, fortunately, Grandma Zimmer was very kind to ask her to stay with the Zimmer family. She even made him her granddaughter-in-law, so she didn't have to die tragically on the road.
However, even though she married Mandy after three years, their marriage was just a status, not going well in reality.
If the Zimmer family doesn't maintain a reputation, Harvey won't sleep in the study.
It's been three whole years. Harvey thought he'd get used to that life. In fact, she was nothing more than the daughter-in-law the Zimmer family had picked up.
There was something else that made Harvey feel a terrible wound. Although Mandy always spoke firmly and frankly to him. She's too pretty and special. After three years with her, Harvey realizes he's in love with Mandy.
As he was thinking about it, a message came over his phone.
“Pak, I beg of you. Help us! Didn't you buy gold mine stock three years ago? Lately, someone has noticed the movement of increasing amounts of gold in the stock. Now, that stock price has risen drastically!”
“Now, company funds have been cut and we need your help immediately. Otherwise, this family will be ruined!”
Harvey was very confused.
He's pensive. During this time, he did invest millions of dollars in gold mines. That is also why he was accused of smuggling company funds and being evicted from the family.
It has not been three years, and they know that the gold mine has been loaded by a lot of gold and even the amount is able to raise its share price.
Harvey immediately took a black bank card.
The card has been ignored all along. The card is a card that signifies the privilege of one's status around the world. It is well known that whoever has the card, will get whatever they want wherever they are.
Then he immediately called customer service 24 hours. He heard a sweet voice answer his phone. “Mr York, how are you? Is there anything we can help you with?”
“Please help me check the balance in my account.”
“Good, with pleasure. Please wait a moment, Pak” said politely. Then, his voice appeared with a tone of shock and groggyness. “Pak York..your balance increased a lot and because your account has been locked for a long time for security, I have no authority to check it. I'll file it soon. Can I call you back later?”
“Iya of course.” Harvey hung up.
‘The amount of money is very much that makes this account locked for security.’
He laughed out loud. Who would have thought, he was just a fad of taking ten million dollars and investing it without any expectations. He never expected the investment to surprise him like this. Harvey doesn't even know how much money he has.
***
Harvey went home relaxed. When he gets home, Mandy has arrived first.
On the other hand, there were two women in the living room. From a distance, he could see one of them fighting charming and sexy, the other was very cute and sweet. Furthermore, Mandy is very beautiful and special.
They were Mandy's two best friends. The sexy woman was named Cecilia Zachary and the cute one was named Angel Quinn.
The three of them did not press Harvey who entered the living room.
Angel who was sitting at the side just sighed. Then he said, “Mandy, let's talk serious. I heard that your company has a problem?”
Mandy rubbed her forehead. Then answer, “Ya. A few days ago, my company faced funding problems. Now we need five million dollars. If I don't get it right away, I'm worried it looks like my company..”.
Angel sighed and said, “But Mandy, it is not easy to earn five million dollars in a short time.”
The sexy woman—Cecilia who was sitting next to him nodded.
Mandy saw their reaction and she realized there was no help for her, then she fell silent in shame. Then he saw Harvey standing there, he couldn't help but stare at him. He reprimanded, “Harvey, since when do you have the right to stand there and eavesdrop on this serious conversation? Go and wash your clothes! And remember, wash with your hands and warm water. If any clothes wear off, I'll make sure you sleep in the hallway tonight!”
He rushed to wash his clothes and the phone rang. Unexpectedly, it was a phone call from his black card bank customer service.
Harvey answered the phone and heard the voice of the operator's woman. “Mr York, after checking your account, we conclude that all your property is being held in an overseas account. If we dig deeper, we may breach your privacy. We advise you to call us if you are free. Then, we will send someone to invite you to Niumhi Headquarters immediately, so you can check your own account. Do you agree?”
Harvey murmured, “All right, but, why do I have to be this hard just to check my foreign account?”
The phone closed after he asked.
“Mandy, your husband is indeed very funny.” Angel could not help his laughter. “She wants to check her money in the bank on an offshore account. Did he watch too many TV shows? Does he even know what an offshore account is?”.
Hearing that, Mandy laughed as well. Then said, “She probably eavesdropped when I talked on the phone with dad a few days ago. Does he think all bank accounts are called offshore accounts? But I sometimes give him a hundred dollars for his allowance, it seems like he keeps it.”
“Mandy, you're so lucky to have a partner like him. He is very frugal!” Cecilia smiled. Actually, they find it very funny.
At that time, Harvey became very anxious and rushed towards Mandy. He said to his wife seriously, “Darling, does your company need five million dollars? Why... You didn't let me help you?”
Cecilia laughed out loud. She is indeed sexy, so she moves so smoothly and seductively, she looks energetic and charming. Then, he looked at Harvey and said, “Harvey, do you even know how much five million dollars is? Don't trade it for your five hundred dollars. Even if you save him a hundred dollars from your allowance, how can you have five million dollars?”
Harvey sneered, “What if I could have it?”
Cecilia scoffed, “If you can take as much as five million dollars, I will bow down to you and regard you as my father!” He let go of his mock laughter.
“Is that so?” Harvey smiled. Then he confirmed, “Then remember what you said. Don't break your promise.”
Mandy rubbed her forehead next to them. Then he waved his hand driving Harvey away, “Already, enough. Go away and never have more delusions than this. Embarrassing.”
Harvey softly said, “Alright.” He did not defend himself at all.
***
That night, Harvey was still sleeping in the study. He really did not believe the good news he heard all of a sudden.
“This is really not a dream!” Harvey could not believe everything that happened and patted her face. “I'm required to go to the bank tomorrow just to check how much money I have.”
He was not in a deep sleep at all. The next day, Harvey gas-fired his electric bike in the morning blind. He was surprised, someone had charged his bicycle battery. Then he thought Mandy must have done it for him. Other than Mandy, none of the Zimmer Family members were kind to her.
After setting up his battery, Harvey prepares to go to the bank.
“Harvey, where are you going this morning blind?” From the third floor balcony, he saw a young girl who was wearing a beautiful set of pajamas. His face is similar to Mandy's. At that time, the girl saw Harvey was not friendly. It was Xynthia.
“Hai, brother, good morning.“ greet Harvey politely.
“I'm not your sister! How could my brother marry a useless man like you? If it was me, I would have strangled you to death on the wedding night!”
Xynthia looked cold. He conveniently threw the documents from the top of the balcony down, Harvey direction, “My brother forgot to bring this document for his meeting. Give it to her, if it's too late, you know what's going to happen to you!”
Undeniably, even though Xynthia is an unfriendly high school girl, she still has good genes from the Zimmer family. She has slim hips with slender legs. She's really pretty charming.
Harvey retrieved the folder of his documents that had fallen to the ground. During her three-year marriage to Mandy, she never allowed Harvey to come to her company for fear that she would embarrass him. Now his sister asked him to send her the documents. Is this a dream?
“Go fast!” Seeing Harvey pensive, Xynthia was extremely irritated. The sister-in-law of the other people is high-looking and handsome. Some of them were even very handsome and classy. But why is her brother-in-law so geeky and has no advantages? He can't even look at her.
Moreover, he did not agree to divorce. What does he think, who is he?
Chapter 3
Half an hour later, Harvey arrived at Mandy's company. As he passed through the entrance, a bodyguard stopped him with a stun baton immediately. The bodyguard said coldly, “Go from here! We do not accept beggars here.”
Harvey had just woken up that morning and certainly had no time to clean himself up at the beginning of the day. And again, he was wearing a tee shirt and shorts that were full of fading. He looks like a beggar from the street.
Harvey is usually treated that way. She smiled and said, “Pak, I'm here to give the documents to my wife.”
“You have a wife with this appearance?” The bodyguard is suspicious, “What is your wife the cleaner-cleaner—Zara or the one in pantry—Lily?”
“My wife is Mandy.” Harvey said.
The guard was surprised. Soon she laughs amusedly, “Oh so. You're Zimmer's son-in-law.” He could not hold his laughter.
Harvey shook his head. Never thought he was so famous.
“Already. Give me the documents. Miss Zimmer asked me to take it from you. And you have been here.” said the bodyguard.
“No.” Harvey shook with confidence and steadfastness. “My sister-in-law said this was very important, so I had to give it to my wife myself. Can you step aside..”
“KAU!” the bodyguard pointed at Harvey and resigned. ‘Is he crazy? He didn't know that the Zimmer Family didn't like him very much? And again, she was dressed like that. Is he not afraid to destroy the image of the company?’
As they were talking to each other, they heard the roar of the car engine blaring from behind. A high-speed BMW 5 Series is parked next to Harvey's electric bike. They saw Don coming out of the car with a bouquet of roses in his hand.
“Happy to meet you, Mr Xander!” seeing Don, the arrogant bodyguard turned friendly and amazed to say hello. Then said, “Master Xander, please pass by here. Miss Zimmer has been looking forward to your arrival at the office.”
Don nodded. He passed by without looking at Harvey's presence there.
Harvey almost entered the company as well. However, the bodyguard immediately blocked him with his electric baton.
“What do you mean? Why did you let her in when I didn't?” ask Harvey, looking at the guard.
Harvey was stunned for a moment. Then he was sad, “What do you mean?”
“I mean? Are you stupid to show yourself here? Last night's events were widespread throughout the city. Everyone knows that Mr. Xander is pursuing his love, Miss-Mandy-Zimmer. They are a handsome and beautiful couple. They are compatible. Look atyou! You're so pathetic and useless. I wonder why Miss Zimmer wanted to marry you in the first place?” the guards censored him.
...
Meanwhile, the elevator in the lobby opened. Mandy came out of there in a flower coat, looking beautiful and charming.
At that moment, he saw Don. He smiled and nodded his head at her and said, “Master Xander, I've been waiting for you.”
Don focused his gaze, and at a glance, a coveted expression was visible from his eyes. It's almost invisible.
She licked her lips subconsciously and gave the bouquet of flowers she carried with her grace. He smiled and said, “People say, a beautiful gift should be given to those who deserve it. Mandy, you are beautiful as a flower. So, only you deserve to be given this gift of flowers.”
Mandy pouted a little. He still remembers what happened that night. Don proposes to her in front of people, and now the whole incident is known to everyone in Niumhi. Now, he was not even afraid to chase after her.
At first, Mandy is very reluctant to meet Don. But his company is in desperate need of funds right now, so he has no choice but to ask Don for help.
Considering that, Mandy smiled and said, “Master Xander, I'm flattered. I invite you today respectfully because there is a business deal I want to negotiate with you. Why did I even get a gift from you?”
Don smiled happily and said, “This is nothing. Mandy, you don't seem to want this gift from me? Do you want more? Is this less for you? What if I asked someone to order imported flowers from Prague, would you like?”
“No, you don't have to do that. Flower production from Prague is not so good this year. I heard that the roses they cultivated had a high cost, costing thousands of dollars per stalk. That's not necessary..” Mandy shook her head, even though she liked the flower, she could not accept the flower at such an unreasonable price.
“More than a thousand dollars per stalk.” Don squinted his eyes and thought, ‘That's all, I can't give him a single flower. I'm holding hundreds of roses right now. If I was going to give her that expensive rose, I would need this much too. That way, the price will be more than two million dollars.’
When Don thought about it, he could not cover up his awkwardness even though he was a man who always looked handsome in front of people because of his wealth.
However, at that moment, Harvey who was standing outside the lobby, had made it past the bodyguards and entered the lobby all of a sudden. He grabs the bouquet in Don's hand and throws it on the floor.
“Honey! Do not accept anything from others. If you really like roses, I'll buy them for you. It's just a mere flower!” unexpectedly, Harvey became very assertive. He takes Mandy's small soft hand and takes her to the elevator.
“Harvey, let me go. What other nonsense is this?” Mandy took off her grip slowly.
They are now in the company lobby and very crowded by employees passing by. Of course, he couldn't look stupid since he was the CEO there. He insisted on letting go of Harvey's powerful grip.
“Harvey! Back you!” At first, Don felt awkward. Now, he's so angry. In fact, he spent thousands of dollars on the flower. He was obviously very ignited because the flower was just thrown on the floor. ‘And more importantly, the useless man held the hand of my goddess! I haven't even held it!’
“You destroyed my gift of roses! You can replace him, huh? Who do you think you are?!” Don banged on the closed elevator door and forced it open.
“Harvey! Explain it to me now! Or you'll have to pay for it!”
Chapter 4
”Exposure? Why should I give you an explanation?” harvey said coldly. “First, Mandy is my wife. Please don't bother him. If you want to make a scene, do it somewhere else!”
“Secondly, if my wife likes roses, I'll buy them for her! She is a beautiful woman. You think cheap and standard stuff suits him so well? I'll send you roses from Prague tonight too!”
Don's really cold. He enjoyed his power at York Enterprise. ‘How can a daughter-in-law like her talk to me like that?’
In addition, the thing that ignited him the most was the incident when Harvey threw his flowers and took Mandy to the elevator. ‘You what is he?’
Imagining it all, Don suddenly smiled. He seemed very sure of himself. “Mandy, don't you need five million dollars to fund your company? I can help you with that.”
“What?” Mandy surprised.
Don spoke calmly, “Mandy, I know your company needs him the most. Fortunately, I have some money that you need right now and that you can use for investment. If you want to have lunch with me, the money will be yours.”
“Are you serious?” Mandy takes off Harvey's hand unconsciously. The company needs that much money.
“I always keep my promise.” Don looks confident.
“Sure.” After weighing it up, Mandy finally agreed. If he doesn't raise that fund soon, his company might go bankrupt soon.
“Mari, Mandy. We talk about the project and where our lunch will be.” Don said politely.
“Honey! Don't go with him!” before Mandy spoke, Harvey looked at Don in anger. His expression was very visible his emotions were peaking. “Don, I warned you. You better get out of my wife!”
Don scoffed, “What can you do, you're just a son-in-law? Wh why? You're afraid she's cheating on you?” Don's smile thin.
“Punishable men. You think you can change your destiny?”
“I...” Harvey's expression changed and was eager to say something.
But just then, Mandy got out of the elevator and said coldly, “Harvey, don't be silly.”
“Am I silly?” Harvey's shocked.
“You know how important this investment is to me?” Mandy looked at Harvey in disappointment. ‘If you're more capable, I won't be able to act like this.’
He sighed and followed Don out of the lobby. Then he got into his BMW.
“Honey!” seeing Mandy getting into Don's car, he rushes after her. Then said, “Darling, don't go with him! I have that kind of money! I'll give you those five million dollars!”
“Harvey, why don't you just find a job? Don't hallucinate here.” Mandy sighed.
“But..” Harvey almost said again.
Don immediately approached her and patted her on the shoulder, “What's wrong? You're looking for a job for a useless person like you? Incidentally, my company needs a cleaner.
“You want to try it? You'll be paid about two hundred dollars every month. I'll pay fifty dollars for the subsidy for helping Mandy. How?” Don is very serious, “York Enterprise is a company owned by the York Family. It's not easy to get into a company like York. Don't lose this golden opportunity. You should think carefully!”
Harvey brushed Don's hand off his shoulder, “I don't need!”
“Oh! Not very grateful to you, Harvey!” Don shook his head in wonder. Regardless of that, he immediately got into his BMW car because he was annoyed by Harvey's attitude.
“Darling, don't go. I can really help you with that five million dollars!” Harvey does not give up and looks at Mandy, hoping that Mandy will change her mind.
Unfortunately, Mandy ignored him.
“Harvey, stop yelling. Better stop fantasizing because you are poor in fact.” Don opened the glass and smiled insultingly.
“What do you want to help Mandy with? The money? You know the CEO of York Enterprise?”
“You... You better think about where you're going when you get kicked out of the Zimmer Family..” Don laughs loudly.
Harvey yells, “Don! Don't be arrogant just because you're rich!”
“Oh, sorry. It is really good to be rich. I can have your wife get in my car because that's what I'm capable of.”.
“If I want him to get into my car, he can't refuse it and must fulfill it.”
“If I want her to divorce you, she should also be able to do as my request.”
Don laughed with satisfaction.
After Don leaves in his car, Harvey stands at Mandy's doorstep.
“Manager The usual project in York Enterprise could get my wife into her car. Even asked my wife to divorce me.”
“York Enterprise is just a company under the York Family!!”.
While muttering, he picked up his phone and called the same number the day before.
“It's me. I can help York, but on two terms! First, the York Enterprise is mine from today onwards! Second, help me order the best roses from Prague and send them to Zimmer Advertising Company with beautiful bouquets that women love the most!”
Chapter 5
”Master, I'll report it to the head soon. You..”
“Don't try bidding me again. Or I'll destroy York Enterprise!”
Not even the person on the phone answered, Harvey had hung up.
...
In the Gold Coast Villa area, each villa has a significant design and has the hallmark of a well-known international interior designer. From the type of ceramics installed to the type of trees for the landscape, they are all carefully selected.
At that time, Harvey was sitting on the sofa on the balcony of the house. Opposite him has sat the head of the York Enterprise which now serves—Yonathan York. He was Harvey's uncle, and he was the one who asked the driver to pick up Harvey to drive him to the villa now.
Looking at the relaxed Harvey, Yonathan smiled and said, “Harv, we haven't seen each other in years. You look more handsome and more excited.”.
“Uncle, I don't have time to mince words. Straight to the point. Tell me what should I do to help the York Family? What should I take over here?” Harvey asked calmly and he did not even look at his uncle's face.
Yonathan sneered, “Harv, you're so frank. In that case, I will get straight to the point.” at that time, Yonathan looks very helpless. He was a very influential person in Niumhi. He can make a big impact on the whole city by making very few decisions. But now, he has little choice but to be humble and resigned in front of Harvey, considering he will ask for his help.
‘Our family follows the style and invests some amount of money into oil stocks. Therefore, we lost a lot of money. Then our family funds now..”.
“Do not talk! How much do you need?”
“Not much, just a few billion dollars.”.
‘Sial!’ Harvey's surprised. ‘Billion dollars? Just go rob a bank?!'
“On that, Chief York, I still have some business to do. I have to go..” Harvey stood up immediately and wanted to leave.
“Harv!” Jonathan became very agitated. He said immediately, “We do need that kind of money. If we don't have it soon, our funds will be wiped out, and our big companies will be destroyed. Besides, I can qualify you!”
Harvey looked at Yonathan deeply with pity, “I understand your sincerity. But, the thing is, where do I have that kind of money, uncle?”
“Harv, do you really want to see this family company destroyed? You have trillions in your foreign account. You can help York just by giving a little money from there!” Yonathan became very nervous and her eyes turned red, “Don't forget your origin!”
At first, Harvey smiled. When she heard that, her face turned wrathful, “Uncle, as I recall, I would not be able to be the successor of York back then.”.
“There are hundreds of us in York. You used to interrogate me, curse me fiery. I contributed a lot back then to the family, but I was kicked out as if I was just a lowly person. Now you're asking me to remember where I'm from? You don't think that's ridiculous?
“Why don't you think that I'm the one who raised all the funds in the family all this time, working hard on the bone for the sake of this family? You enjoyed my working money and dumped me in the end.”
“I became the son-in-law of another family these few years. My life has suffered so much. You didn't even visit me or even give me help.
“If you don't have a crisis, will you now remember the previous successor?”
Harvey said very loud and clear.
Yonathan stunned. He said, “Harv, we were wrong. Please let us apologize to you. We ask for your sincere forgiveness, but we need your help to deal with this crisis first. From now on, you'll be the CEO of York Enterprise!”
Although York Enterprise is a company that is not so big first, but very potential. Focus on family investors. And again, York has a lot to gain from the entire company in Niumhi, including many of the new product listings and plans that are being designed.
For a time, back then, the York company was led by Yonathan—'s daughter Belle York. He was Harvey's cousin. Unexpectedly, Jonathan was willing to give the post to Harvey.
“Good, agreed.” Harvey weighed in for a moment. At first he refused to take York. But she still clearly remembered what had happened to her this morning. If he didn't take his company, he could have been easily scorned and bullied by everyone.
“Do not worry. I'll finish it. You just need to come to the office and sign the documents tomorrow. In addition, I will take care of the roses from Prague as well.” Jonathan was very pleased. If Harvey did not agree to help him, York would really suffer even if it did not go bankrupt.
Harvey can't ignore that. If he could not solve a small problem like this, he would not survive in the field of business that he would face next.
“Omong-by the way, give me that suit.” Harvey went outside, but he saw a new suit from the couch sitting on him and his eyes twinkled.
She was planning to attend her college reunion party tonight and she had no idea what clothes she wanted to wear because she did not have any good clothes. It was too late to buy a new one, so he saw Jonathan's suit and borrowed it.
“Ah this, take it if you like, just a gift from Armani, there is still a price tag.” Yonathan nodded. Although the suit is expensive, but nothing compared to his billions of dollars. How could the head of York care about that?
Harvey doesn't think much about it. He immediately changed his clothes in the dressing room. Then he looked at his old shoes and turned to Yonathan's shoes in the cabinet and sneered.
Jonathan seemed to have stinky feet. ‘I don't want to wear his shoes at all. I'd better put on sandals.’
He knew that his classmates would attend the meeting tonight. Looks like the princess of beauty in her college years first, will also be present—Wendy Sorrell. Harvey was excited.
…
After Harvey left the villa, he whistled and cycled towards the Platinum Hotel. The reunion meeting was held there, he feared it would be too late if he was too slow.
Suddenly, a car horn sounded. A Porsche stopped next to Harvey and the car window opened slowly.
She saw her mother-in-law take off her sunglasses and looked at her coldly. Harvey's getting clumsy.
Although Lilian Yates was her mother-in-law, she looked like a thirty-year-old woman because she always maintained her appearance and health. She looks graceful and one thing is certain that she is indeed at first glance very similar to Mandy, equally beautiful.
However, he took a quick look at Harvey. He said coldly, “Where did you get that suit?”
During Harvey's three years at Zimmer's house, the person he feared most in the Zimmer family was Lilian. Hearing that, she said gently, “Mother, I borrowed it from a friend.”.
“Oh? Do you have any friends?” Lilian smiled stiffly. Then said, “Someone told me what has happened in the company today. Because you seem so incompetent in doing things, go home and get your stuff done tonight. Sign the divorce papers tomorrow. Don't worry, I'll pay perks.”
Harvey direct goosebumps, “But... Ma'am... I love Mandy very much. I can't live without it..”.
Hearing that, Lilian laughed and said, “No need to call me ‘ibu’. I don't deserve to be your mother. If I were to be your mother, I'm sure my ancestors would be very frustrated.”
“In addition, you said you loved my son. How can you love him but you're just a useless person? Do you realize you've ruined a pivotal moment in my daughter's life for three years?”
“Just a minute, Don called me. He said he would pay millions of dollars as a wedding gift as long as I gave him his blessing and let him marry Mandy. You know how many? I'm sure you won't believe.”
Chapter 6
“Don?”
Harvey's stunned. Then he smiled ‘This man is just a street kid educated by York Enterprise. Just wait for time to kick it out.’
“Mother, I will not divorce. Even if we get divorced, it's none of your business. I hope you don't interfere with our relationship.” Harvey laughed and said as he passed by on his electric bike.
“Harvey, you're nobody!” Lilian was enraged. He almost chased her with his car. However, he could only endure his anger and immediately left as many people began to notice.
…
Mandy walked to the reception desk in the hours of work.
Then he saw two women chatting with laughter and many servants watching them.
“Miss Zimmer's husband is so useless. He said he would give her a rose from Prague. How dare he say that? Is she not glassy? Not to mention that he rode an electric bike, even the sandals he was wearing were already broken. A guy like him should be on the streets begging for food.”.
“Yes, I don't understand why Miss Zimmer can meet a guy like him!”
“If he is not a useless man, he will not be a real daughter-in-law!”
“If it were me, I would have divorced him long ago.”.
“There are so many people who admire Miss Zimmer out there.
Mandy was speechless.
“You..” Mandy bit her red lips and her face flushed instantly as she endured the embarrassment of all the comments she heard. She's so embarrassed.
“Nona Zimmer...” The two women on the front desk looked very scared when they realized there was Mandy there, “We talked carelessly. Please don't get mad..”
“DIAM!” Mandy shouted with a trembling body holding back the anger.
His eyes were red and almost crying. Why should she have a useless husband?
Other people's husbands come from business elites or wealthy families. Her husband is just a useless daughter-in-law. Not only was he unable to protect her, he always embarrassed her in front of others.
Right now, the phone at the reception desk is ringing. The scared gossip woman answered the phone and said, “Nona Zimmer, the security guard said there is a logistics company sending large items full of truckloads. Is it allowed in?”
“Forku?” Mandy was shocked for a moment. He didn't buy anything, but he nodded in allowing it.
Immediately after, entered a handsome and elite man wearing a suit.
He said courteously, “Excuse me, are you Miss Zimmer? This is a global express delivery package that we run. There's a direct shipment from Prague. Please signed.”
“Prague?!” Mandy finished her signature in surprise. As the handsome man waved, several couriers swiftly carried very beautiful, high-quality wooden boxes and placed them in the lobby.
On top of the box had been embedded a brilliant and sparkling crystal highlighted by the light beam.
All the employees there were amazed by the beauty of the box.
“Wow! Is this from Prague?”
“And the box is very luxurious and beautiful, what is it in it?”
“Nona Zimmer, can you open it and show us?”
There are many female employees in advertising companies. Right now, all the servants were looking forward to it with sparkling eyes.
Although Mandy guessed, she asked the man to open the box after seeing everyone being stunned by her.
Then, within a few seconds, everyone was stunned and silent for a few minutes.
“This...It's a rose from Prague..”.
“Are you sure? Hasn't it been reported that there has been a decline in rose production in Prague this year? How much is all this?”
The handsome man saw the women there stunned. He smiled and pointed to the bouquet of roses. Then said, “Nona Zimmer, allow me to introduce..”
“Roses from Prague. You should know that these are the best flowers of the year.”
“But, of all, it is not this that is valuable, see..”.
