Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 33

Senior Zimmer was deep in thought. He then nodded. Since he adored Zack the most in his generation, he soon turned to look at Mandy when he heard that. He then said, “Mandy, just go ahead. You don’t have to choose the time too. There’s no time like the present. Just go and negotiate a business deal with York Enterprise tomorrow. You must succeed. I won’t allow any failures!”

“Grandpa, I think that…” Mandy appeared upset. York Enterprise just scolded them. Now they want to go and negotiate a deal with that particular enterprise the next day. Would it not be like they were asking for humiliation themselves?

Senior Zimmer did not allow her the chance to speak more. He then said coldly, “It’s decided now. You just need to fulfill the mission, not to look for excuses!”

After that, all of the Zimmers present lowered their heads and stood up. They felt lucky. That was indeed an unfortunate task. The person who was chosen to do that was indeed unfortunate.

When they reached home, Lilian’s facial expression was terrible. Senior Zimmer did not have a good impression of their family. Now an almost impossible task was handed to them. They were really helpless.

A bang was heard. Lilian smashed a cup and scolded immediately, “That useless Harvey! Why don’t you ask him to come back sooner to clean up the mess and to cook? Does he want me to starve to death?”

Mandy said softly, “Mom, have you forgotten about it? He went and took my place as the hostage. He’s not home yet. I’m not sure if anything would happen to him…”

Lilian laughed coldly for once. “What kind of thing could happen to him? He stays outside all night, and he doesn’t return home. At first, we don’t even have any excuse to divorce him. Now he has got to agree to that no matter what. What a good-for-nothing! Since he came to our family as the live-in son-in-law, nothing good has happened in our family!”

Mandy was slightly worried about him. She took out her phone. After being hesitant for a while, she still did not make the call.

The next day, Mandy dressed up in a charming way and drove her Porsche to York Enterprise with some slight uneasiness and worry.

The person who served her was the CEO’s secretary—Yvonne. The secretary was not being civil to her. She smiled softly and said, “Are you Miss Mandy Zimmer?”

Mandy was stunned for a short while. Soon, she replied softly, “Yes, I am.”
