Chapter 2801 “Right. I heard that you also have a good relationship with Dean Cobb’s granddaughter.
“With your current status, you’re completely unworthy of her.
“But once you become the fifth master, you’ll no longer have that problem.
“In what world would a woman reject a man who fought with his own two hands to become the fifth master of Hong Kong?”.
Noah York was showing affectional expression as if he was admiring a great talent.
He felt as if he was the only one who could see through Harvey York’s true colors.
Harvey was indifferent. He was not interested at all in any of the offers.
He squinted at him and showed a faint smile.
“We’re all adults here, Third Lord York. You could probably fool children with these empty promises of yours...
“But, it’ll definitely be a little harder to fool me.
“I never liked playing underhanded tricks like these, but I can tell you’re just trying to bait me with all that fame, glory, and riches.
“If I were to give Selena Judd that information and the family collapse because of it, Julian York will rise to power...
“I’m pretty sure the first thing he’d do isn’t to
bring up some fifth master of Hong Kong.
“He’ll use all his might to kill me off first, won’t he?
“After all, how can you let an outsider like me keep secrets like these?
“You wouldn’t trust me even if you tried. Even if I give you my word, only my dead body will be able to reassure you. Am I
wrong?”
Harvey showed a faint smile while he was talking. Noah stood slightly frozen as he showed shock in his eyes.
He never expected a young man such as Harvey could see that far ahead.
He knew the inner workings of those wealthy families like the back of his hand!
What a great talent!
Noah did not express those feelings even though they came to mind.
After lighting up a thin cigar and giving it a puff, Noah burst out laughing.
“You’re painting me in a bad image here, Sir York!
“This is outright slander!
“I do hope that my son rises to power. Evidently, I like power and authority, but there are lines I just won’t cross!
“I’m a businessman. I only make proper trades.
“Killing isn’t a part of what I do. I don’t have the courage to do such a thing either.”
After playing with the lighter in his hand, he
squinted his eyes.
“How about this? If you don’t believe me, I’ll offer you my daughter’s hand in marriage.
“You might not know this, but I have another child other than Julian.
“If you become my son-in-law, there’s no way I’d kill you off, right?
“After all, I can’t just joke around with my daughter’s marriage like that!”
Noah then showed Harvey a picture of his daughter on his phone with a warm smile.
The woman looked really innocent. She had a pretty face and a great figure. Indeed, an enchanting sight.
Not only was Noah showing his utmost sincerity, but his generosity and tolerance were also put on view, as if he did not mind
Harvey speculating about him.
Instead, he was planning to prove to Harvey that he would keep his word.
