Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 68

“Alright, Mr. York!” Yvonne nodded. At the same time, she lamented for the Zimmers. How could they bully the CEO’s wife? The Zimmers really did not know how to behave themselves properly.

“Besides, ask Tyson to come and meet me in the afternoon.” Suddenly, Harvey thought of someone else.

Yvonne was stunned. Tyson was a gangster in Niumhi, and he led quite a good life, doing that. He never had any kind of contact with York Enterprise. Why would the CEO...

“Ask him to come.” Harvey spoke again.

Yvonne seemed to have something on her mind. But she still nodded respectfully before she left the office. After all, Harvey’s every command must be obeyed and carried out in York Enterprise no matter what. She just needed to fulfill her task, and she did not have to ask the reason.

Tyson came. But it was beyond Yvonne’s expectation. Tyson was usually a rather frightening and powerful person in Niumhi. After he received her call, he went to York Enterprise in less than half an hour. He then waited there respectfully. The main thing was he did not dare to enter Harvey’s office when it was not time yet.

He waited until three o’clock in the afternoon. He was then led to Harvey’s office by Yvonne. He entered the office uneasily. When he saw Harvey, he placed his hands at his sides, and did not even dare to raise his head.

After that, Harvey waved his hands at Yvonne, gesturing for her to leave. Only then did Harvey pour a glass of water for Tyson in person. He said calmly, “Just take a seat. We’re buddies. Why do you have to act so respectfully? If you let your subordinates see you like this, how could you be their boss in the future then?”

“Mr. York, how could I act like a boss in front of you? I’m just a mere subordinate.” Tyson wiped away his cold sweat. He then held the glass of water with both of his hands and said, “Regarding what happened at the Zimmers the other day, I didn’t mean that. If I knew that it was you…”

Speaking of that, Tyson wanted so badly to strangle Don to death. For the past few days, he had not received any news from Harvey which worried him greatly. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he received the call from Yvonne that morning.

Harvey sat down by himself and said softly, “I didn’t take it to heart. But Brother Tyson, you really quite disappoint me. You’ve been here in Niumhi for so many years now. How could you become someone else’s thug and beat the others up for them?”

Tyson was soon covered with cold sweat. He said, “Mr. York, there was only once. It’s true. I did it only once. I usually never do these kinds of things. It’s always my subordinates who do that.”

Harvey replied calmly, “I don’t care how you usually discipline your subordinates. But nowadays, it’s the time in which we need to use our intelligence instead of fists. If we only know how to use our fists in dealing with things, there’ll be trouble soon. Do you understand what I mean?”

Tyson nodded immediately and said, “Mr. York, what you said is true. I’ll remember that.”

“Take a seat. Do sit down since I asked you to,” said Harvey calmly. “Recently, I need you to deal with something for me.”

“Sure! Mr. York, I’m at your service.” Tyson looked respectful. ‘If Mr. York asks me to do something for him, it means that he’s no longer angry.’

“During these few days, my York Enterprise will get rid of some bad assets. I’m aware that the people who own those assets are not nice people. I don’t hope that these people will try to stand against me during this process. It’s best if everything is carried out smoothly. In that way, everyone will be happy,” said Harvey calmly.

“Alright, I understand it now. I can guarantee that no one will try to make a mess at a time like this.” Tyson nodded vigorously. If he could not even take care of such a trivial affair, he could not survive as a gangster there.

“There’s one more thing. I heard that recently some people are trying to create troubles in the shopping center which belongs to the Zimmers. Is it true?” Harvey continued.

Tyson nodded and said, “Yes, I’ve heard of that. After all, it’s a project with high and promising profits. There are a few gangsters who are quite interested in that. They want to grab onto that chance to gain some high profits, especially when they heard that the Zimmers had gained the investment funds of fifty million dollars. They’re quite excited about that.”

Harvey thought about it for a while. He then said, “Help me to keep a close eye on it. If anybody wants to take any action, inform me about it beforehand.”

Tyson replied with a deep voice, “Mr. York, you don’t have to worry about that. There’ll be no problem since it’s just a small affair…”

Not long after Tyson had left, Harvey’s phone rang all of a sudden.

“Harvey, where are you?” At the other end of the phone, he heard Mandy’s voice.

Harvey looked at the information in his hands and said, ‘I’m about to get off work.”

“Then… Let’s go shopping with me.” It seemed like Mandy had hesitated for a short while before she said that.

Harvey dropped the documents in his hand onto the desk with a bang. He was filled with disbelief. They had been married for three years now, and it was the first time that Mandy had asked him to go shopping with her. Not to mention shopping, she would usually feel quite embarrassed if she brought him along to any place.

“Alright!” Harvey did not reject her. After all, he had given orders on things he wanted the others to deal with in the company. Besides, there was no big issue in the company.

After around ten minutes, Harvey rode on his electric bike and reached the pedestrian street. He could not help that since he had not much time left, and he indeed did not have time to go and drive his Porsche out.

That pedestrian street was the most prosperous and lively area in the entire Niumhi. There were all kinds of large shopping centers all around the street. It was crowded too.

After Harvey parked his electric bike nicely, he soon saw Mandy. Among the crowd, she was extremely charming and striking. At first glance, one could easily recognize her.

Mandy saw Harvey’s electric bike too. She waved her hands slightly at Harvey.

Mandy was wearing a simple white T-shirt with a pleated skirt and a pair of casual high heels. Her outfit accentuated her perfect body figure completely. Hence, the other men there could not help but turn around to look at her.

If they had such a wife, they would be extremely overjoyed, and they might even break into laughter even if they were sleeping soundly.
