Chapter 3016
Hong Kong, in the garden villa.
Harvey York and the others were having breakfast together.
After looking at the laptop, something piqued Harvey‘s interest.
“I don‘t know if I should be asking this question or not, Lord York
“But, is Vince York braindead or something?
“Why did the family even choose him to be the young lord in the first place?
“Is the family trying to get themselves killed or what?”
After looking at the news, without even verifying, Harvey could basically determine that Vince was the mastermind behind it.
The only person who would describe such a story and push Harvey to the limelight and challenge the fragile Islanders was none
other than Vince.
He thought that the Islanders would use the opportunity to pursue Harvey while also ruining Julian York‘s chance at climbing
ranks. He could even sell the Islanders a pretty big favor because of this.
This was three birds with one stone! An impressive tactic, to say the least.
Marcel York let out a huge sigh after reading the news.
“He‘s a good kid, but he‘s just too petty.
“He‘s a vindictive man.
“Grandma York thinks I‘m not letting him become the lord of the family because he‘s not my son.
“But, she never thought about the family‘s interests as a whole. It‘s useless letting a narrow–minded man govern the family.
“The Yorks of Hong Kong has been considered a battleground since ancient times. A certain amount of knowledge and tolerance
is needed for anyone to survive here.”
A hint of disappointment could be seen in Marcel‘s eyes.
He was never fond of Vince, but he never expected that he would make such a petty move.
Vince had the upper hand by doing this...
But everything that the Yorks of Hong Kong has done so far was all credited to Harvey.
The family seemed utterly inhumane to the outsiders.
Simply put, Vince was just too narrow–minded.
Or rather, since he was not the lord of the family yet, he had not thought that far ahead.
Harvey set the laptop down and took another sip of his tea.
“How are you planning to deal with this?”
“How else? We‘ll have to deny the claims,” replied Marcel matter of–factly.
“There are some things that just can‘t be disclosed to anyone, let alone let the public know.
“But since a fool decided to bring this all up, other than an official announcement, I don‘t think there‘s another way to fix
this.”
Harvey shrugged.
“I don‘t think this would matter anyway.
“Since the Islanders were already informed by Vince himself, they‘ll think I was the one behind the incident.
“Of course, this is the truth after all.”
Selena Judd seemed worried.
“You better be careful, Harvey.
“The Islanders will do anything to get their hands on you.
“Since you already dealt with both of their Sword Saints, they‘re almost on the brink of collapse.
“But they were never really about strength. They use underhanded tactics to handle their business.
“If you‘re even a little careless when going against those snakes, they‘ll get a bite out of you! You need to keep your guard up!”
Naturally, Selena knew full well how those people operate.
That was why, as the mother–in-law, she was quite worried about Harvey‘s safety.
