Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 242

“Sweetheart, they’re your classmates. Really, you’re all like a family. Why should you argue so much with them? You’ll look stingy.” Jamie, who was standing quietly at the back, stepped forward to hug Nia.

At the same time, he sized Mandy up and was filled with astonishment. Nia was not less than Mandy in terms of beauty and figure. The most important thing was that Nia was very promiscuous, but her temperament wasn’t very good.

Mandy was exceptional in terms of beauty and disposition. Unfortunately, she was married to a worthless piece of trash and got herself a live-in husband. For an outstanding woman like her, it was such a waste!

Harvey parked the car nicely and then walked towards them.

Mandy smiled and held his hand, and introduced him to the rest. “This is my husband. I’m sure everyone knows his name, so I won’t dwell on that.”

The marriage between Harvey and Mandy was a well known fact for everybody in Niumhi. Mandy’s classmates knew he was the legendary live-in son-in-law, Harvey.

They shot Harvey disdainful glares tinged with slight envy.

He may be condemned as a worthless trash, but it was worth it as he could be with such an exceptional woman.

In fact, most of the male classmates present once had a secret crush on Mandy. Some of them even tried to gain her affection before.

“He’s quite good-looking. Why is he so worthless?”

“Who knows? Maybe a person with looks like this is destined to be a kept man!”

“That appearance is wasted on you!”

“If I ever get rich, it’s not bad to get myself a kept man!”

Harvey ignored their words. He gave a curt nod and said, “Everyone, nice to meet you.”

“So you’re the legendary live-in son-in-law. You’re much better than the rumors say. I noticed this after I met you, but you really do have the qualities of a kept man.” Jamie said, narrowing his eyes. Before, Nia had asked him to put down Mandy viciously. Right now, he was more than happy to do so.

Harvey looked up, glancing at Jamie. He said quietly, “Didn’t your uncle tell you that one should be humble in life?”

Jamie burst into vehement laughter. “I didn’t think you’d know my uncle. Not bad. You do have some insights. My uncle always keeps a high profile and said we shouldn’t be so humble. If we are, what’s the difference between us and worthless trash?”

Harvey frowned. He wanted to say something else, but Mandy gave him a look. It was their gathering day. If they argued with each other there and then, everyone would be annoyed and embarrassed.

They could hear the melodious sound of the piano, pleasant to the ears.

Harvey frowned. He had learned how to play piano since young as well. As he listened, he sensed something odd. The sound of the piano was rather electronic, as if someone was playing a music recording

Yet, how many of the people present truly understood music and the arts?

Many of the women grew excited as they looked at Jamie’s back.

“Oh gosh! Nia, surprisingly, your husband knows how to play piano! You’re really a lovely couple!”

“That’s right. Your husband is amazing. Where did you find yourself such an excellent partner?”

“If my husband is half as good as yours, I’ll be tremendously overjoyed!”

Previously, the women were jealous of Jamie’s wealth. Now, they were envious of his talent. Nia did indeed lead a wonderful life with such an excellent husband.

By comparison, Mandy was rather pitiful. Her husband’s clothes didn’t look like they cost more than fifteen dollars! What of the piano? Clearly, someone like him knew nothing about such an elegant art.
