Harvey York's Rise to Power



Pavel's expression became even colder. He ignored Lilian, and simply turned to Mandy and said, "Seems like you're playing the bad cop when the good cop isn't working, huh? If we government servants don't give any leeway to you wealthy people, we deserve to die, right?"

"No, Captain Pavel! It's all a misunderstanding!" Mandy's heart skipped a beat. She knew there was no benefit to offending Pavel at this time.

Most importantly, he did his job as the law required of him. Meanwhile, Lilian pointed her finger at him and even wanted to lodge a complaint against him. Wasn't she acting too recklessly?

The moment Mandy thought of that, she quickly apologized. "My mom is someone who can't keep her mouth shut, and can be quite ignorant. Please don't hold it against her."

"That's not what I meant," Pavel scoffed. He said nothing else and was going to leave as he shook his head. It was obvious he was going to ignore Lilian and the rest of the family.

When Lilian saw what Pavel did, she wanted to immediately rush over and yell at him.

But before she could even make a move, Harvey, who had been staying quiet all this while, quietly said, "Mandy, take your mom away. I'll deal with this."

Mandy was stunned, but she quickly nodded. If she allowed Lilian to continue to mess things up, it wouldn't be good for everyone.

"You're here too, Harvey!" Lilian exclaimed, as if she had only seen Harvey at this time.

"I'm was wondering why my daughter is so rebellious today! So it's you pestering her and trying to brainwash her again! I'm telling you, Harvey. You can forget about staying with my daughter ever again. My daughter's wealth and glory have nothing to do with you!"

Mandy was getting a terrible headache. Xynthia quickly stopped Lilian.

"Mom, please stop talking," Xynthia said. "If it isn't because Harvey got there in time and solved the issue, I don't even know how we'll all end up. Even if you're not grateful to him, you can't do that to him, can you?"

"Traitors! You and your sister are both ungrateful traitors!" Lilian almost jumped in anger when she heard Xynthia speak up for Harvey.

She berated Xynthia angrily, and said, "I dare you to speak for him one more time! I'm going to slap you senseless if you do that."

Now, Lilian's hatred for Harvey had reached its peak. Not only did he manage to change her eldest's perspectives, but even her second daughter was speaking up for him.

What was he up to?

She knew his evil intentions!

Mandy massaged her head and said, "Mom, can you please stop talking? Xynthia's right. If it isn't because of Harvey, we'd be in a lot of trouble this time. Harvey came to help us when everyone's watching us. Even if you're not thankful to him, you can't scold him."

Lilian laughed angrily.

"Oho? He's been married into our family for three years, but I didn't know he had that kind of talent. Things went well because of him? From my perspective, maybe he's the real culprit behind all of this!

"He acted all of this out so he can be the hero and sweep you off your feet! So that he can have one more chance with you!

"So, you better listen up and stop dreaming! As long as I'm around, he can forget about ever entering our family door ever again!" Lilian proclaimed as she spat on the floor.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
