Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 311

At that moment, Cecilia was sitting on the ground, frozen in shock. The woman had always been vain, so she was a bit aware of the situation.

‘Harvey York really was their boss. Wasn’t the one in the lead respectful towards him too? How is that possible? He’s just a worthless live-in son-in-law!’

‘For the past three years, whenever I would go to Mandy’s house, this piece of filth would always be washing feet or the restroom. I could even tell the filth to wash my dirty shoes and socks that I didn’t want to wash. But… I can’t believe that he’s a gangster boss…’

This incident had really shocked Cecilia. Now that she knew his identity, would Harvey end her life here?

Cecilia was terrified for her life. These people that lived on the streets were cruel and brutal—if they really wanted to do something, nobody would even know if she suddenly disappeared.

“Harvey… Sir York…” Cecilia kneeled in front of Harvey and hugged his legs, sobbing hysterically.

“I was wrong… I was truly wrong…” Cecilia was ashamed to no end. She did not think that one day, she would have to kneel in front of this live-in son-in-law and beg for his forgiveness while hugging his legs.

Harvey smiled and asked casually, “Did you not just say that you’ll let Mandy force me out of the family—not even giving me a spot to beg for food?”

“I was wrong! I was truly wrong!” Cecilia was trembling.

“I’m begging you, for Mandy’s sake, please let me go! I don’t want to die... I won’t say a word of what happened tonight, your secret’s safe with me! I swear! I promise!”

“Promise?” Harvey calmly asked. “How can you guarantee it?”

“I… I…” Cecilia bit her lip. “Master, from today onwards, you are my master. I am merely your little dog, and I won’t say anything about this. I’ll heed my master’s call…”

“Woof woof,” Cecilia quietly barked twice.

Harvey was shocked—where did all of Cecilia’s dignity go? He didn’t even ask for it but Cecilia had barked on her own.

Cecilia’s face was now crimson red.

She used to despise Harvey York to the point that he disgusted her, but right now, she had just thrown away all of her dignity in front of him.

“I’ll let this slide since I don’t have this kind of perverted hobby, but remember—if anybody finds out about what happened today, I’ll make your life a living hell.”

Harvey shook his head and walked away. He had no time for her.

“Yes, of course,” Cecilia answered quickly, “Please rest assured, Master. I won’t say a word about today!”

Harvey staggered as he was about to step out of the apartment. ‘This woman is already in the role, isn’t she?’

Harvey had business to attend to, so he just hurried off.

…

On the second morning, at the entrance of York Enterprise. A Bently with a license plate from the provincial capital was parked in front of the building.

Thea York got out of her car, frowning. Looking at the office building, she immediately scowled.

‘That pretty boy—how dare he not serve me the other night, right after becoming CEO? Surely he hasn’t turned over a new leaf just by this, right? Looks like I’ll just have to let him know who’s the boss here.’

Thea York brought a group of bodyguards with her and walked into the office building, but security guards saw them and held them back.

Harvey had gone back to his company the other night and prepared everything accordingly—even swapping the company’s security guards to Tyson Woods’ men for the time being, just for Thea’s arrival.

“A good dog does not block one’s path! Scram!” One of Thea’s bodyguards sneered.

“Do you have any idea on who this lady is? She is nobility from the York family—even your CEO will have to kneel in front of her. Do you realize the consequences if you keep blocking her path?”

Tyson Woods, who was leading the security team, walked towards them while smiling. He bowed slightly when he reached them.

“You must be the nobility from the provincial capital. The CEO already told us about your arrival, but he has some appointments to deal with for the time being. The CEO’s secretary will take care of you for now.”

“A day of being CEO and he’s already showing off?! Tell him to come here this instant!”

Thea York was as cold as ice—she did not know that Wyatt Johnson was being held captive by Harvey York. She thought that the so-called CEO was still the ignorant pretty boy Wyatt Johnson.

Thea angrily walked towards the elevator. Behind her, Tyson smiled and dialled Harvey York’s number.
