Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 54

“He turns out to be a live-in son-in-law. He’s such a disgrace for men!”

“Hey, this handsome guy is saying that this live-in son-in-law lured his classmates to buy expensive wine at their reunion dinner. However, he did not succeed in scamming his classmates. He even bragged that he has let someone waive the bill for them.”

“How come there is such a person? He’s a shame for men!”

“Such worthless trash! Why isn’t he fatally struck by a car?!”

The people were gossiping about the story, and Harvey was instantly angry.

‘I am in such a good mood today. I just came out to buy milk tea for my wife. How did I meet such a fool? Why didn’t I know that Howard was an idiot?’

The woman next to him was even more arrogant now.

Just when Howard was about to continue, Harvey had already carefully put the milk tea on the ground. He then said coldly, “Howard, I’m warning you since you were my classmate, don’t take this any further!”

“Why? What can you do to me? Can’t I say about the things that you have done?” Although Howard saw Harvey’s angry face, he still spoke indifferently. He was sure that Harvey was all talk.

Slap!

Harvey slapped him in the face unexpectedly as soon as Howard finished his words.

Howard was stunned. He regained his senses after a while. He then shouted. “Harvey, do you know who I am? Don’t think that I don’t know your wife’s family is asking for investment from our company recently! I’m telling you. You can forget about the investment! Unless you get down and lick my boots, otherwise, no one will help you!”

Harvey looked at him coldly and said, “So what if I hit you? Believe it or not, if you talk nonsense again, I will smash your Audi today.”

The corner of Howard’s eyes twitched. He was really afraid that Harvey would do this. He bought this Audi on installment, and he still needed to pay off more than thirty thousand dollars. He would be so distressed if Harvey smashed it.

The onlookers were stunned. They did not expect this live-in son-in-law to be so ruthless and was such a character.

“Oh gosh! He must have suffered a lot back home, and there is nowhere for him to vent it out!”

“But this handsome guy is also at fault. Why did he care about this kind of person? If he smashes the car, it’ll be problematic.”

“Poor people don’t like seeing others driving luxury cars, they…”

Everyone saw Harvey walking toward the brand new Panamera, opened the car door, and sat in it while they were still talking.

At this moment, those people were shocked and they were eating their own words. If the Audi A4 was a luxury car, what about a Porsche?

‘Isn’t he a live-in son-in-law? But he’s driving the special edition Porsche Panamera. I have never heard of any live-in son-in-law who would have such good treatment!’

“Porsche?!” The woman’s face turned pale. She had dreamt of riding in it before. However, she was already very lucky to be able to ride in the Audi A4 with her appearance.

At this moment, when she saw the live-in son-in-law who she despised driving the Porsche, her expression was spectacular.

Howard looked awful but with a little envy and a trace of jealousy. He scolded. “It’s not a big deal! It’s just his wife’s car. No one has ever lived off a woman to such an extent as him…”

However, no one agreed with Howard’s words this time. Instead, they looked at him as if he was a lunatic. ‘Are you out of your mind? You are calling the person who drives the Porsche a delivery boy and also a live-in son-in-law?’

Howard hated him so much while seeing this scene. He had already made up his mind. When he officially entered the York Enterprise, he would use his authority to mess with the Zimmer family. Maybe he could use his power to get the goddess—Harvey’s wife…

Howard looked vicious as soon as he thought of this.

***

Inside the car, Harvey dialed Yvonne’s number casually and said, “I heard that the company recently recruited a group of new employees?”

“Yes, we did recruit a few people. Do you want to have a look at it, Mr. York?”

Harvey said indifferently, “No, go and see whether there is a person named Howard Stone among them. Reduce his annual salary by ten times and change his position to the security guard who’s in charge of the parking…”

“Yes!” Yvonne did not dare to ask more. She knew that she should not question or second-guess Mr. York’s decisions.

The instruction was quickly passed down through calls upon each respective department. Soon after, it reached Howard’s cell phone, who was mad at the moment.

Howard, who was initially angry, was shocked when he saw the caller ID. He quickly answered the phone, nodded, and bowed. He said, “Yes, yes…I am. How can I help you?”

“Congratulations, Mr. Stone. The CEO has agreed to issue you the appointment letter…” A profound voice came across the phone.
