Chapter 30
Read Harvey York’s Rise to Power [by A Potato-Loving Wolf] Chapter 30 – “Why?” Don was about to go crazy. He got a call tonight and was inexplicably told that he had gone bankrupt. He also wanted to know why.
Harvey smiled and took out his cell phone to redial a number. Yvonne had already sent him her phone number just now.
The phone was quickly connected, and Yvonne’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “President, I have already dismissed Don Xander following your instructions. At the same time, I have also let the lawyers follow up on the company’s project funds that he has embezzled.”
“Miss…Miss Xavier…” Don was startled when he heard the familiar voice. At this moment, he felt a sense of dizziness that started to blur his vision.
The knife in his hand fell on the ground. He muttered, “How is it possible? How can a useless person like you be the new president? This is impossible! It’s impossible!”
“Impossible! The younger generations of the Yorks were all well-known. You can’t be…” Don kept shaking his head. He was about to go crazy at this moment. He had already guessed the truth, but he refused to believe it. The trash that he looked down on could ruin him easily, just like crushing an ant.
“Please, please tell me who you are? Even if you want me d**d, don’t send me to the grave not knowing who you are.” Don had a meltdown and was about to cry.
“Don’t you know that the Yorks did have an heir before?” Harvey said calmly.
“You’re…Sir…” Don completely broke down. He knelt and kowtowed. “Sir, please forgive me. It’s my fault for not recognizing you. Can you let me go? Just let me go as if I was nothing. I dare not do it again. I
promise I will never pester your wife again. I promise that I will not appear in front of you again. Please spare my life. Please give me a way out.”
Harvey smiled and said, “Didn’t you say that you aren’t going to let me see the sun tomorrow?”
“Sir, Sir, I must be as blind as a bat. Please, please let me live! I couldn’t survive if this goes on. I have worked hard for so many years in York Enterprise. Can you give me a chance for the sake of it?” Don kowtowed while crying.
“Get lost. You can do whatever you want. Just don’t appear in front of me in the future anymore.” Harvey did not want to waste his time and energy on this little man. It would be fine as long as he did not get on his nerves.
“Thank you, Sir. Thank you, Sir!” Don kept on kowtowing and did not care about other people’s strange gazes. He was confident that he would rise again as long as Harvey was willing to let him go.
Harvey did not speak anymore. He turned around and found his electric bike. He rode on it and left. It seemed that he could not return to the house tonight. Thus, he went to the company.
Some passers-by who were onlookers were all stunned. What was going on? These days, even a person who was just riding an electric bike could have somebody kneeling to him?
…
Meanwhile, in the Zimmer Villa, Senior Zimmer continued to hold meetings. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
No one cared about Harvey being taken away as a hostage.
Senior Zimmer was sullen at this moment. “We initially wanted Don to help us get the investment from York Enterprise. Unexpectedly, this guy was also a useless b* stard. Now let’s talk about it. What can we do to get the investment?”
“Father, do we truly need this fund that much?” Sean frowned and said.
“Of course! Have you forgotten that we bought a piece of land at the commercial center last year? We spent a lot of money on that land last year. Most of the family’s working capital was invested in it. Now, we have cash-flow problems, and more money is needed to invest in that land.
“If we can get the investment from York Enterprise smoothly, then everything will be fine. We’ll be able to develop that commercial center and also ride on their coattails. Then, the Zimmer family will be able to squeeze into the first-class family line-up in Niumhi…”
Senior Zimmer’s face was solemn when he said this. “In short, we better rely on ourselves rather than other people. We have to find a way to get on with the new president. Only then, we-the Zimmer family would rise again!”
