Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 240

“It’s a gift from your cousin.” Harvey said casually.

“Kevin? How is that possible? This car costs at least more than three hundred thousand dollars. Why would he give this to you?” Angel was filled with disdain. ‘Harvey likes to act arrogant and put up a show. I don’t know where he rented this car. How can he be so shameless and say that it’s a gift from someone else?’

‘It’s normal to rent a luxury car to show off for gatherings. But he’s not even aware that he needs to put up a better act if he really does want to show off. How could he wear such shabby clothes? If he tells people this car is his, no one will believe him.’

Harvey didn’t want to explain himself and simply drove. He was only telling the truth, but no one believed his words.

The Porsche drove swiftly toward Hot Spring Villa in the suburbs.

Hot Spring Villa was famous in Niumhi. The springs there were renowned for their ability in lessening fatigue and improving the appearance. The number of people who booked the rooms on weekdays alone were unimaginably high.

Even if people didn’t come for the hot springs, they needed to make a reservation in advance just for a meal there. Ordinary people could never have the opportunity to do so.

“Angel, I heard you need to make a reservation half a year earlier even just for the VIP restaurant there. Who had the honor of making one?” Mandy asked, curious. “How are they able to hold a gathering here?”

Angel sneered, “It’s Nia’s man. I heard he has some shares in that property. The CEO is his uncle, apparently.”

Mandy was shocked. ‘Nia’s husband is pretty capable. He even has shares in the Hot Spring Villa. She really did have an amazing life.’

“Isn’t the owner of Hot Spring Villa called Kane Brooke?” Harvey said. “He’s from the Brookes in Niumhi. That place can be considered the Brookes’s property.”

“Hey! Since you know it belongs to the Brookes, then you should know who Kane is, shouldn’t you? He’s the heir of the Brookes. I heard he’s quite an excellent man in terms of his disposition and abilities. The most important part is, he’s only in his thirties! Besides, he’s still single. He’s a rich, single man!” Cecilia exclaimed, filled with anticipation.

Harvey was speechless. ‘This woman is hopeless. Every day, she’s obsessed with the idea of getting married into a wealthy family. The problem is, there aren’t that many families for you to get married into. Besides, they probably have their own requirements for potential daughter-in-laws. Just take a look at yourself. What are you thinking about all day long?’

Mandy shook her head. “Celia, can you knock some sense into your head? This is our class gathering, not some sort of grand event. Kane won’t be joining us.”

Angel sneered. “You’re wrong, Mandy. See, that b*tch Nia told the group chat just now that CEO Brooke will drop by and give a toast later during our gathering.”

Mandy went speechless. She and Harvey looked at each other. At that moment, she shared his sentiments.

‘A stranger who’s not even your husband is coming to give a toast. What’s there to show off about? Are you out of your mind?’

However, Cecilia was ecstatic and delighted at the news. It had always been her dream to marry into a wealthy family. Before, she never had a chance. At last, a golden opportunity came knocking. Maybe her dreams would really come true.
